Feb. 28th, 2011 12:03 pmAfter a lot of writing, and
themoononastick actually beta reading while I was writing, I managed to get a first draft of my h/c bingo challenge story done yesterday. I'm going to do the edits once I post this, and then it'll get a final check over, and I'll actually be able to post in time. Which is, wow. I didn't think there was a chance of that on Saturday. Admittedly, I also spent a lot of yesterday's writing time sitting thinking about the Pete/Mikey backstory in Pink Jeep verse, and having glee that due to the clear distinction between sex and intimacy in the verse it's perfectly fine that Mikey can go off and have sex with Ryan without it affecting the core fivesome in any way. Not that he's having any sex in this side story, what with Ryan pretty much concentrating on not dying. But later? Oh yes.
Really, Ryan, Pete/Mikey backstory, Pink Jeep verse remains the ultimate in self indulgent stories for me. Now, if only I could include a cage somehow....
So yeah, that'll be posted later, I just need a title, rating and summary and to actually pick a wild card prompt because I could use a big chunk of the list.
Other than that yesterday was the usual Sunday stuff. Visit to nanna's, shopping, ironing. Though that did give me a chance to watch more TV. Which is a good thing as the Atlantic channel is killing my DVR. Since my last list I've started watching The Sopranos, Treme and Big Love. All of which I'm enjoying but my poor DVR hasn't had above 10% memory in ages.
Finally, for you Bob/Brian fans on my flist,
chalcopyrite posted a
picfor1000 story I enjoyed, and not just for the fun title. Thistle Do Fine
Right, coffee then edits now.

Date: 2011-02-28 01:24 pm (UTC)Ahahaha, the things you do to the characters you love.
But I want sexy times for Mikey/Pete. :-(
no subject
Date: 2011-02-28 01:32 pm (UTC)They had sexy times! They spent ages having fun in the zones. Mikey met Pete at a stunt show and then they were together pretty much non-stop, sleeping in the back of Pete's beat up car, waking up sticky and sweaty. But then Pete's contact tracked him down and he knew it was time to get serious and went undercover. But because he knew he'd never go if he had to say it, he left without saying goodbye :(
I've spent far too much time thinking backstory for this.
Also, you posted your story!
no subject
Date: 2011-02-28 01:38 pm (UTC)Aww, see that's the story I want to read. All the bits before he leaves without saying goodbye.
I did post my story! I got the okay from mylittlehottie, so up it went. not that anyone will read it, but it is posted!
no subject
Date: 2011-02-28 01:45 pm (UTC)All the bits before are delightful. I think Pete would be a fantastic zone stunt man, and Mikey would sit watching him, looking cool but also heart-eyeing always as Pete jumps the lava pits.
I'm going to read. It's my reward for actually getting this editing done. So you'll get one comment for sure, and many more I bet.

Date: 2011-02-28 01:58 pm (UTC)YAY for one reader and I like that it is a reward for you. ♥
Part of the reason I don't think it will get many readers is that I don't know where to announce it besides the newsletters. I'm not even a member of any AI8 fic communities and it is from Kris's POV!

Date: 2011-02-28 02:10 pm (UTC)Hmmmm. That is a problem. One I can't help with sadly.
Still, you finished! Which means you've time for hookers and the ocean :D

Date: 2011-02-28 05:34 pm (UTC)Jenny's story is a lot of fun. Plus, the title remains awesome. I need to hire her to think of mine *g*

Date: 2011-02-28 12:40 pm (UTC)I think I'm failing this one (again)... I have 300 words and no idea where it's going, plus I have to go to work this afternoon. *sigh*
no subject
Date: 2011-02-28 12:44 pm (UTC)Oh no. But, you do have those 300 words to build on later. The tentacle story will be told one day.
no subject
Date: 2011-02-28 12:50 pm (UTC)/o\ I'm doomed to fail all challenges! I just can't write under a deadline, I'm afraid. Or maybe, just as with all deadlines, I'll get inspired three hours before the end and sneak something in under the wire! lol
no subject
Date: 2011-02-28 12:53 pm (UTC)I like that sneaking in under the deadline thought. Plus, time zones mean we get a little extra time. I'm sure you could hurt and comfort someone within a few hours.
no subject
Date: 2011-02-28 12:59 pm (UTC)That's practically a signed contract! ;)
As far as I can understand, timezones mean I have 11 hours after midnight tonight. Considering I went to bed at 5am this morning, it might work! Now I just need to figure out where it GOES. Maybe I'll go take a shower, that seems to be where I do all of my plotting! lol
no subject
Date: 2011-02-28 01:06 pm (UTC)YES! It could work *\o/* Go shower, think of who you want to beat up!

Date: 2011-02-28 05:36 pm (UTC)By which I mean, Hi! I'm home. Let me know when you're done editing and I will finish off the beta.

Date: 2011-02-28 05:39 pm (UTC)Also, your icon is perfect for this comment *g*
no subject
Date: 2011-02-28 05:44 pm (UTC)It really was. I think I might have to rename it as creepster!Mikey. Also? You make the best Freudian slip style typos - I'm pretty sure I saw both 'kiss' and 'sex' appear for moments before you backspaced them away *g*
no subject
Date: 2011-02-28 05:47 pm (UTC)There was definitely a kiss there as I was going to have Mikey kiss Ryan's forehead before that very last line. Then I second guessed myself and took it out. The sex would be a genuine Freudian slip though *g*
