This morning Tex fell over in the kitchen. While I was stroking his side I was thinking how an already bad week was going to go out on an almighty low note. In the end he managed to get up and wobbled into the garden. All stiff legs and milky eyes, his fur in those stupid tufts that never lie sleek and stupid flappy ears -- a puppy in an old dog's body.

Reading various mod notes it looks more than likely I'll be posting my rpf_big_bang story and the bandom_hc story close together, that is if I ever get the hc story finished, it's giving me issues right now. The worst outcome would be getting the same date for both, so fingers crossed that won't happen.

I'm tempted by bandom_au I love AUs a lot and world building is fun, but at the same time, challenge addiction is not a good thing.

The picture Shane posted of Ryan is beautiful. I've had it tabbed for days now.

Okay. Right. H/C story. Island time. Yes.

ETA: I suppose it would be cheating if I left Gerard unconscious for the whole story. It's very tempting, though.

Poor Tex. *gives love to him from here*

You can do it! If I can get mine under control you can do it.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

He's asleep on the couch right now. It's what he does most of the time now.

You're a very awesome cheerleader ♥

[saxihighlandck.livejournal.com]

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ How old is he?

You're very welcome. You aren't too bad yourself. :)

[turps33.livejournal.com]

He's either 15 or 16, I can never remember exactly.

More hearts for you! ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

I'm sorry for your dog. :(

This picture is stunning. *____*

Nooo, I'm demanding a present Gerard. ;P

[crowgirl13.livejournal.com]

Many soothing pets for Tex and lots of hugs for you.
*HUGS*
I'm so sorry that it's been a bad week for you.

~~~
Fingers are crossed, as requested.

And yes, unconscious Gerard would indeed be cheating. ;P

[turps33.livejournal.com]

It's been a week and a half with more to come, I'd like it to be this time next week. But what can you do but plod on?

I keep imagining having to post both on the same day. People would be sick of the sight of my name.

I'm over 7k in right now and all Gerard's done is lie clasped against Mikey's chest and be unconscious. It cuts my dialogue down nicely *g*

[turps33.livejournal.com]

He's such an old man. It makes my chest hurt to think of him not here.

Isn't it? Shane takes such good pictures, though of course Ryan is a fantastic subject.

Ahahahah. Okay, I guess I can have him wake up, just for you.

[msktrnanny.livejournal.com]

I think leaving him unconscious for the whole story is BRILLIANT!?


0:-)

[turps33.livejournal.com]

You would *g*

It makes my job easier that's for sure, especially as one of the others is just sitting there checked out mentally. I should kill some people off, chip away at the numbers a bit more :D

[turlough]

Poor Tex!! It hurts so much when they start to get really old and you know you don't have much time left together. *hugs you and Tex a lot*

(I didn't know you've been having a bad week. I hope things will start to get better soon. *hugs you again*)

Posting on the same day sounds very hectic so let's hope it won't come to that!

What's wrong with challenge addiction? I think it's a great thing to have friends that are ;-D

That's a very good photo.

YES IT WOULD!! But you can always have Mikey be unconscious, I wouldn't mind ;-P

[turps33.livejournal.com]

I can't even imagine life without Tex. We bought him before we moved in together and he's always been there.

There's been stuff going on with various people, but a week tomorrow it should be better. I hope so anyway. Hugs are always welcome, thank you.

Posting on the same day would suck more for other people than me. I'd be spamming like a crazy person.

Challenge addiction is bad! I need to stop, or write stuff that sticks to the 1k minimum.

Shane takes lovely pictures. He has this knack of capturing perfect moments.

Dude! So harsh! Mikey is being all heroic and carrying Gerard along the beach and then staying with Frank while Worm sets his legs. He can't be unconscious!

[sperrywink]

Poor Tex. It is so hard when they get old. I hope this week gets better for you.

Posting on the same day would suck, but you'd overcome!

Yes! Keep Gerard unconscious for the whole story! That would be awesome! He can groan every now and then, though.
*g*

[turlough]

Your stories always end up being long these days. They didn't use to be this long I'm sure? Perhaps you have more to say in this fandom? Or possibly you've just gotten talkative in your old age ;-)

You can let Gerard be the heroic one instead!

[turps33.livejournal.com]

He's such an awesome old dog.

Ahahah. I'd have to post one in the morning and one at night. A case of, hi flist! Have a gardening story and a story about a plane crash! You're welcome.

Man, your comment just made me laugh so much. It should be a choose your own adventure. Does Gerard get to wake up? Yes/No From comments the results are tied so far *g*

[turps33.livejournal.com]

They didn't used to be this long at all. I was having this whole crisis of confidence about the h/c story because I estimate it's only going to end around 12k. Then Kimberly helped slap in the reality that 12k is a respectful size.

I blame old age. Years from now I may be throwing out 100k epics *g*

But Gerard is unconscious! He has been since they crashed!

[turlough]

*snerk* 12k is totally a respectful size. Most stories I find are 1k-5k, and usually in the lower half of the bracket at that.

So? It's time for him to wake up then!

[turlough]

No they aren't! It's three for and two against! Your own vote doesn't count, so there :-P

[turps33.livejournal.com]

My vote should count double!

[turps33.livejournal.com]

I know, logic wasn't working for me at that point.

I guess he does need more than one line in the whole story.

[turlough]

YES HE DOES!!

[turps33.livejournal.com]

It's a good line, though!

[turlough]

Even if it's good it's not nearly enough for Gerard, you know how much he talks ;-)

I'm having lots of fun at the moment, I'm writing down AU prompts for bandom_au. I don't think I'll bother making them anonymous, everyone will know that they're mine anyway :-)

[turps33.livejournal.com]

True. Oh well, it was nice while it lasted *g*

Can I guess? Let's see. A space au for sure. Erm, the beauty salon one -- if you don't use that one I think I will because I love the idea. Your detective prompt and an AU where MCR work in an animal rescue centre.

Hold on! I forgot. One where Bert and Gerard get their happy ending somehow. That has to be an AU.
