Well, hello, Mr. Crowe...
Well, hello, Mr. Crowe...
idiosyncratic: when are the next slashyoscars?
azewewish: next february?
idiosyncratic: awesome!
idiosyncratic: that gives me a whole YEAR to write my cracktastic assbaby orlando fic!
idiosyncratic: i think i'll make marton the father.
azewewish: oh, you mean the bastard father that LEAVES poor barefoot pregnant orlando at the altar to go back to that bastard sean bean???
idiosyncratic: YES!!!!!
azewewish: awesome
azewewish: can viggo be the pediatrician?
idiosyncratic: then viggo can swoop in because he's been secretly pining for the beautiful damsel, i mean orlando, and sweep him off his feet.
azewewish: *claps* i'm telling you, he should be the pediatrician
azewewish: or whatever the pregnant doctor is
azewewish: obstetrician?
azewewish: is that right?
azewewish: pediatrician's for babies & kids, that's right.
azewewish: so, yeah, viggo can be the obstetrician & can hear all of the WOE & agree to be the lamanze coach.
idiosyncratic: yeah, he'd totally be the ob/gyn
idiosyncratic: and and and karl can be the lawyer that viggo hires for orlando to keep the evilmeannastyRICH!marton from stealing his son from orlando, who is far too young and immature and useless to be a parent.
azewewish: i like it
azewewish: i have no idea how you're going to write it with a straight face, but i like it
ETA:
azewewish: okay, and the reason that marton left sean for orlando in the first place is that bean's infertile & marton needed an heir.
idiosyncratic: oh, brilliant
azewewish: why he couldn't just get a donor, i have no idea, logic is not high on the list of priorities in these fics. *g*
azewewish: who's playing the bastard!lawyer that marton hires?
idiosyncratic: because the child had to be BEAUTIFUL
azewewish: well yes
idiosyncratic: and really, let's face, orlando IS the prettiest
azewewish: true
idiosyncratic: oh, that's easy. marton's lawyer would be harry.
azewewish: nononono, eric
azewewish: no one cares about harry
idiosyncratic: and he and karl are sekritly in cahoots to steal the child because THEY want a child.
azewewish: he's not well-known enough. *g*
idiosyncratic: MY fic, and i don't write eric in anything longer than about 200 words. *g*
idiosyncratic: sticking with lotrips. i'm not going there with the banabloom crazies.
azewewish: you're not writing this for YOU, you're writing it for feedback
azewewish: sheesh, woman
azewewish: i thought you knew that
idiosyncratic: no eric
azewewish: fine
azewewish: but i'm telling you, it would be epic
idiosyncratic: i wouldn't be able to resist referring to him as weaselly, and that would alienate half my reader base
azewewish: hehehehee
azewewish: well, he IS evil
idiosyncratic: i'll compromise. craig can be the bastard lawyer that marton hires.
azewewish: awesome
idiosyncratic: he can wear bright suits to court and be all flaming and shit.
azewewish: **** says that if you write someone getting tied up or holding their breath, you can get it into the bdsm category
idiosyncratic: well, yes. marton would totally be tying orlando down during sex, because let's face it. non-con is the only way to go. and it gives orlando another reason to cry prettily.
azewewish: yeah, but the rape only has to be once & orlando has to think he deservd it. remember, he thought he was in LURVE.
azewewish: and, of course, marton's the only one he was ever with.
azewewish: *sparkly hearts*
ETA #2:
idiosyncratic: omg, okay so, in this fic
idiosyncratic: orlando is totally going to draw hearts in his notebooks and stuff and write his name as orlando csokas and orlando bloom-csokas and do the whole ob + mc 4ever with hearts around it and all that.
azewewish: because he's 15?
idiosyncratic: he'll be a college student, going for a degree in...um...hmm...something artsy.
idiosyncratic: interior decorating or cake baking or something.
idiosyncratic: he's pretty, but not too bright.
azewewish: interior cake baking
idiosyncratic: he'll just ACT 15
idiosyncratic: because he is, you know.
idiosyncratic: 15
azewewish: on the inside
azewewish: ohohohoh
azewewish: and marton can be some rich patron that donated a bunch of money to the arts building & they met at a fund raiser
idiosyncratic: oh, see, i LIKE it.
idiosyncratic: orlando can be going to college for a degree in sculpture! because really, there just aren't enough sculpture!orlando fics out there.
azewewish: true
idiosyncratic: and that would work nicely with marton being a patron and them meeting at the fund raiser. the students can be auctioning off their art.
azewewish: and marton sweeps him off his feet with roses & diamonds & furs & art stuff
idiosyncratic: oh, absolutely
idiosyncratic: lots of flowers
azewewish: woot!
idiosyncratic: and chocolates. don't forget the chocolates. and romantic candle lit dinners in front of a fireplace.
azewewish: right, which is how the seduction happens.
idiosyncratic: exactly!
idiosyncratic: and that would lead to the tying up the next time, because marton's so big and orlando's a total virgin and it would hurt so he'd be all crying and nonono!! afterwards.
azewewish: and then marton would be all, petpetpet, see, i can't help myself, you're so beautiful that i have to POSSESS you & if you promise you'll never leave, i won't tie you up anymore, then he totally gives orlando the blahblah nice sex until the next time that he feels like getting his kink on
idiosyncratic: meanwhile, he's sneaking off to fuck bean, who's pressuring him about the baby, who hasn't even been born yet
azewewish: exactly
idiosyncratic: and of course marton would reassure sean that there's no way he could love the stupid little slut orlando
azewewish: of course not
azewewish: he's in love with his own bottomingest of bottoms, sean
idiosyncratic: exactly

So, wow, this has been a year of ups and downs for everyone, hasn't it? I can't say that I'll be sorry to see 2007 go in a few hours.
The highlights (and lowlights)
- My nephew graduated and turned 18 in May, so I got to spend a week at home for that. It was a week I needed.
- I quit my job in June and felt a lot better getting away from my psycho ex-boss and the toxic work situation I was in.
- However, I spent the next 2 months unemployed, which wasn't much fun and definitely wasn't good on the finances.
- Turned 37 in July and spent a lot of time wondering just what the fuck I'm doing and where I'm going. Sadly, I still haven't figured it out.
- Found a new job in mid-August that is just awesome and I love to bits.
- My niece had a baby the day I started the new job, a little girl she named Mira Leah, whom I have yet to see. Hopefully soon, though.
- Had a bit of an accident in November, that resulted in a broken ankle and surgery. Still in the cast, but hopefully that will change in a few days.
- Spent the last 6 weeks of the year out of work due to above injury, which also led to death-by-crutches threats from azewewish (I'm still not entirely sure she was kidding, y'all), which resulted in moonmelody kidnapping me for almost the entire month of December.
Random bits
- Met some pretty awesome new friends.
- Parted ways with a few others, due to life happening, but I only wish them all the best.
- Reconnected with a few others, for which I'll be eternally grateful.
- Enjoyed quite a bit of live music, which is always a good thing.
- Spent far too much time missing my family and doubting myself. I wish I could have spent more time with them, but that's the sacrifice I made by moving to L.A.
- Lost weight, gained some of it back, but what can you do when you're stuck on your ass for over 6 weeks?
Overall, the year wasn't horrible, but it wasn't one of my best. There are things I'm grateful for, and people for whom I'm even more grateful - editorzon, coolwhipdiva, aproposofnothin, sabrinagb, without_me, moonmelody, technosage, azewewish, soylahtayplease, wendyr, Tracy - and other people for things they'll never know about. So it goes.
I can't say thank you to all of you enough for making 2007 as weird, crazy, interesting, unique, frustrating, enticing, and fun as it was. You guys consistently bring a smile to my face and amaze me with the sheer amount of talent I see every day, be it writing or visual. Hopefully, 2008 will allow me to be more interactive and get to know all of you better, regardless of whether we share one interest or many.

Whether in snow
Or whether in sand,
Wherever I go
I want you to be there when I land
'Cause you're my friend
And I hope that in the end
You'll be standing by me
Should old acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind
Should old acquaintance be forgot
And auld lang syne
Whether you're East
Or whether you're West
Wherever you go
I want you to know
You'll have my best
'Cause you're my friend
And I hope that in the end
You'll be standing by me
Should old acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind
Should old acquaintance be forgot
And auld lang syne
Should old acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind
Should old acquaintance be forgot
And auld lang syne
So whether in snow,
Or whether in sand
Wherever I go
I want you to be there when I land
