O_O

SERIOUSLY.

WHERE IS EVERYONE?? Isn't it too hot to be anywhere but inside entertaining me? Or, um, was it bad? Mary Sue-ish? I can take it. Big girl with metaphorically thick skin. Literally, it's glowy and tan, like rich caramel and silk. Hee. But if it was, I'd rather know. Really!

5 people? 5 PEOPLE?? [/greedy]

*shakes computer vigorously to get emails in inbox*

I. Can. Take. It. Suck? Not interested? WTF? <-- apparently, I have no shame. Well, DUH.

In completely unrelated news, I won an award today. I have no idea what for. Lubed? Yeah. SONG FIC. Runner up. I go drink whiskey now.
[/emo]

[ETA]: In case it isn't clear? I'm being seriousfunny. This is meant for those following E/H fic, not those of you who are deranged into Jossverse/otherverse characters only. :-D

::pets you:: HI HI HI. I'm not reading the RPS. Not that I don't read RPS, but the pairing's not a draw for me. But you know, I was wondering where the hell everyone is too. I haven't had any replies to comments today, and that has to be some kind of record.

::shakes LJ with you::

Don't take it personally. I just don't do RPS. It's a thing. Go drink whiskey now.

I was gonna read, I swear. Then this stoopid movie drew me in and I just had to watch it.

No, no, I *know* that about you. Slash is a not usual thing, too, correct? No, I just mean... I had a lot of hits/fb on the last chapter, and this next part was very... specific. (No boysex. Maybe that's it? Harumph.) So, I'm wondering if folks just don't get the exposition, you know? DOn't care for it?

Which is fine, but I use fanfiction as a writing exercise, so I like to hear the concrit as well as the OMG!!11! and in many cases, more so.

But I will drink whiskey (and I meant to comment on the 17 year old! You are just an admirer of art, 'sall.)

Those boys aren't my thing. Sorry, hon.

Oh, yeah, no worries about *you*. I know that's not your pairing, and you're pretty much Due South only right now, yes? I know nothing about that show, other than there are a handful of you who love it fiercely.

I'm just wondering about the drastic drop in comments for one chapter in particular, and wondering if something was just horrendously off-putting about it. *scratches head* I mean, LUBED. Come on. This was just a quiet moment in the forest...

*slaps your email for not being full, too*

I see you soon! (Ish) Yeah?

[identity profile] stoney321.livejournal.com 2005-08-01 05:32 pm (UTC)(link)
EEEK! That is fine. But. If it sucks? If it isn't what you want? TELL ME. I like hearing what does/not work, you know?

*pours two fingers, swirls under nose*

Whatchu watching?

congrats on the award, sweetie. i'm sorry i haven't been able to read your fics lately, but i've been awfully busy. i promise i will make the time soon.

*hugs you tight*

It's gorgeous, love, and I'm sorry it took me so long to read it.

[identity profile] stoney321.livejournal.com 2005-08-01 05:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Crap. I make a correction above soon. It should say: for those who HAVE BEEN reading so and so fic, was there something about THIS PART that was offputting? Just don't care about the style, subject, etc?

Obviously, those of you on my flist who are only for the Jossverse can scroll past my emo-whining with no worries.

:-D (but they're so preeeeetty....) Heh.

Thanks, MARI!!! how are you? Gorditas? Nephew???? <-- I worry and was soooo glad to hear that things weren't so dire after all.

I know it's fabulous! I've not been online but it's first on my list!

And Congratulations!

I occasionally read some slash, but it's not my preferred flavor of fanfic. And RPS--just squicky to me. I do like exposition in fanfic, though.

[identity profile] beadattitude.livejournal.com 2005-08-01 05:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Um, but I love dorks. Really.

Hey, did you hear the French rap on the CD at the hotel? It goes "Quoi, Quoi?" instead of "what, what?" Cracked me right up.

I do know exactly what you mean about getting frustrated when no one comments. I've had a lot of that. Especially with um...all my stuff. Yeah. ::shrugs::

Since my muse has been ABSOLUTELY ABSENT, I guess it's not an issue. I have like um, four things WIP and not a clue.

[identity profile] stoney321.livejournal.com 2005-08-01 05:39 pm (UTC)(link)
THERE IS AN EMAIL COMING TO YOU!
[ominous]

We should cut ourselves and cry into vanilla extract while we smoke clove cigarettes, Depeche Mode in the background. Ahhh. That makes me nostalgic for my school days...

And there are somethings I don't expect ANY feedback on, which is fine. I, um, am a math nerd? And I keep track of comments, and make scientific decisions based on fb? Okay, that's totally true not true, but a lot of people who have followed this multi-part fic didn't come back for this bit, and I'm curious as to the why.

REALLY not upset (like, crying, sad) but wondering if the writing's off, in which case, I want to fix it, you know?

And I DID hear it. We burned the CD onto Mr. S's laptop for later enjoyment. Because we are EVIL.

*pets you because you are my Margot*

[identity profile] http://users.livejournal.com/_divya_/ 2005-08-01 05:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I'd say 95% Due South right now. Because. OMG. Honey. ::flails:: It's so slashy. They go into the men's room and discuss things in a stall. They help each other up, and don't stop holding hands for longer than is normal afterward. They talk about partnership as a marriage. GAH. ::loves it fiercely::

I see where you're coming from, though. The drastic drop in comments is puzzling, but consider that there were three separate times today that I thought my friendslist had frozen (does this ever happen to you, where you need to close your browser and reopen it in order to see new posts?), but it just turned out that no one had posted or commented in existing posts. WEIRD, but I'm sure it's not you. ::pets you MORE::

Yes, I see you soonish, and I shall make with the email and the plans when my life calms down a little. End of the weekish. You and me and Dovil have got to get a three-way email going to discuss possibilities, yes.

[identity profile] stoney321.livejournal.com 2005-08-01 05:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, on the flavors. i have very specific things I'm looking for in a fic, the sexual aspect of it is waaaaay down on the list. But, um, it's on the list. :-D

I'd say half of my flist is squicked by RPS. And yet, they don't defriend... *whew*

This last bit has tension, of a sort, but mainly I'm trying out some various things with how I tell a tale. Not a lot of dialogue, and I think there is a large faction of people who PREFER dialogue. And not a lot of anything else. Which is fine, but...
"I'm talking"
"And now I'm saying something."
"Now it's my turn"
"Nope, me."
"Wait, let me"
"Now, who is this?"
"I haave no idea who I am that is talking at this point."

Wears me down. Of course, I've seen short bits structured like that that can work... But not often.

Aaaaaand I'm chatty. :-D

Would it be anything about posting on a Sunday night? Less people available to stay up and read? And factor in vacationy stuff? Just wondering.

I wish I'd thought to bring my laptop - I coulda done that!

The writing is NOT off. I've noticed that sometimes if there is no sex...there's not much fb. Silly sluts. And it KILL me, 'cause some of the best stuff I've written doesn't always have sex...and if it has UST, they're begging me. I LOVE plotty, thinky stories that happen to have very hot sex. When it's necessary to the plot. I tried to write a PWP once (Road Trip Revalations, B/G) and it ended up having plot. ::rolls eyes at self::

You've got a gift for atmosphere, as well as really great timing. I could see and smell and feel that garden.

Re: <-- I'll always have Ewan...

[identity profile] stoney321.livejournal.com 2005-08-01 05:56 pm (UTC)(link)
OKAY. I posted it today. It shows Sunday night? Maybe it's backdated and you can't SEE it. Hmmmm.

Oh, the thing that KILLS me is when people end EVERY chapter with a cliffhanger and UST so as to garner fb. i don't play that game. Which is probably why I'm one of the red-headed step-children of the various fandoms I play in, but eh.

Okay, made note of fic. Haven't I read all of your B/G? Only you and [livejournal.com profile] uberaeryn can get me to read it. but that's because you get them, and make ME believe it. :-D

[identity profile] stoney321.livejournal.com 2005-08-01 05:58 pm (UTC)(link)
And now I'm getting logged off of LJ everytime I comment! Grrrr.

And did you say a Dovil/Di?stoney three-way? No? I have selective reading/hearing. :-D

Okay, I am joining up with Netflix this week. Are the shows on DVDs and would Netflix have them, you suppose? I ar smahrt.
