whether it's rock & roll or old soul

THIS IS A POST RECCING VARIOUS THINGS THAT NEED RECCING, NATCH. (Sidenote: the other day my mother sent me a text with the word "natch" at the end, used correctly, and I was like, hey, where did you pick that up? "I made it up," she says. "It's an abbreviation for naturally!" WHAT EVEN.)

First and foremost, [livejournal.com profile] winterlive wrote Inception fic. It's called Get Lost, and it's 13K of Arthur genfic, and if you are one of those people who tends to read only within your pairing, I urge you--no, I implore you--to read this anyway. It is quite literally the best character study of Arthur I've ever encountered, and follows his journey across the country post-Inception as he ties up some loose ends and figures himself out. It's about growing up and going home again and not going home again and loss and strength and learning and who you end up being while you're not paying attention, and, oh, god, it's incredible. I just--you need to read this story, you guys. It's one of those that leaves you stunned and breathless at the end, that totally changes your viewpoint on the character while reinforcing it at the same time. SO. GOOD. Go forth and be amazed.

SECONDLY, [livejournal.com profile] angelgazing has made a post explaining what it is about Hawaii 5-0 that is so damnably addicting, because she's apparently not content with dragging just me into this fandom kicking and screaming. IT IS EXTREMELY COMPREHENSIVE AND VERY CONVINCING, but if anyone would like a quick and dirty summary of the show, my own is as follows:

-Steve's a ninja
-Danny's pissed
-THEY'RE SO MARRIED
-Jersey joke
-Hnnnnng Grace Park
-Hnnnnnng Daniel Dae Kim
-SERIOUSLY PLEASE JUST ADMIT THAT STEVE AND DANNY ARE MARRIED
-No understanding of or apparent concern about how laws actually work
-Jersey joke


I have had it confirmed by others that this is accurate. (Also over at [livejournal.com profile] angelgazing's journal is The Inception Anon Love Meme, which just fills me with warm fuzzies every time I look at it. ♥)

THIRDLY, [livejournal.com profile] emilianadarling, who is BEYOND AMAZING, did a podfic of my story Don't Feed Me, Seymour. For those of you keeping track at home, that was the one where Arthur is the worst cook ever--er, well, the one where Arthur is the worst cook ever that isn't part of domesticverse, I like that trope, okay??--and it is WAY, WAY, WAY BETTER as a podfic. [livejournal.com profile] emilianadarling's delivery is spot on and hilarious, and it's just awesome. I was grinning the whole way through in absolute joy and glee that anything I wrote could inspire something so fab. You guys should all check it out.

Finally, [livejournal.com profile] foxxcub's big bang is up, which, yes, I know that you know, and you probably think that I am biased because I beta read it, BUT WHATEVER. You still need to hightail it over to All the Rules to Break and read it at once. Serial killers and cops and the FBI and oh my god Arthur and Eames. The emotion is pitch perfect, the plot is a brilliant ride, do yourselves a favor and get over there post-haste.

OKAY, I'M OFF TO WORK ON THINGS that hopefully are not Hawaii 5-0 fic but probably will end up being Hawaii 5-0 fic anyway fml fml fml. I hope you all are having fantastic Thursdays :D

Grace Park is hotter than the sun. DDK's brilliance is as blindingly obvious as Steve and Danny's not-secret marriage. ♥

[identity profile] gyzym.livejournal.com 2011-02-10 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
I like, seriously, THANK GOD THE PLOT IS A MESS OF RIDICULOUS FAIL, because any scene where DDK and Grace Park are both on screen I become incapable of coherent thought.

[identity profile] laria-gwyn.livejournal.com 2011-02-10 09:49 pm (UTC)(link)
If the plot were more plotty and less ridiculous, we might be distracted from all the pretty on the screen. That would be terrible. XD

YOUR SUMMARY OF H50 IS TOTALLY ACCURATE.

I shall have to check out all of those recs~! Yay!

I hate myself but I would totally be okay with more H50 fic. But any fic at all would be good.

[identity profile] gyzym.livejournal.com 2011-02-10 09:47 pm (UTC)(link)
IT'S JUST SCIENCE.

Definitely do, they are all--in my humble opinion--AMAZEBALLS.

YOU CANNOT HATE YOURSELF AS MUCH AS I HATE MYSELF FOR THIS OH GOD

I am going to use "amazeballs" in conversation as frequently as possible from now on.

Yeah okay I'd probably buy that, at least I haven't been tempted to write any fic. Yet. I've just been foisting myself off on various people on my friends list being all like, "O HAI, I grew up in Hawaii, DO YOU NEED A FACT CHECKER?" and then living vicariously through their fic.

WHAT! WHAT! WHAT! :D :D :D

Gaaaahh, I am so happy you enjoyed the podfic, love!! Holy crap, to have one of my favourite authors in fandom so happy about a podfic I made = complete and utter joy!! I am grinning like a mad fiend, no lie. :D It was SO much fun to make. And the fic itself was already hilarious and AWESOME, so it didn't take much. <3 Thank you so much for such high praise, it makes me a very happy lady indeed!

Gyzym. Jizz. May i call you Jizz? My dear, i knew that one day we would lose you from the Inception fandom. But i had hoped, against all hope, that you would be peer pressured into the Merlin fandom, because i felt that that would be an adequate exchange for Eames and Arthur, who are my OTP. And any fic your wrote about Merlin and Arthur would be AMAZING. But, i see you writing fiction for this show "Hawaii Five-0," ranting about how it's ridiculous and should not be watched. And without ever watching an episode, seeing pictures of the main characters made me think that the blonde guy looks like the villain in the incredibles. but, you are not the first person in the inception fandom i have come across who talks about this show. so, on Wednesday, when i didn't have anything else to do, i decided "what the heck," and read this post, and the post that angelgazing posted. and decided to start watching clips. and then, everyone was talking about episode 1.16. so i thought, "hey, nothin else to do, might as well. everyone says the show is ridiculous, i'll get a good laugh, no big deal." but now, less than a week later, i'm halfway through the series, reading fanfiction, and suffering through endless hormones that are my introduction to Steve McGarret. I am always laughing at the show, the acting in some parts is horrible, the plot is ridiculous at best, but, i can't....stop watching it @.@ it's like you said. it's horrible candy, that you just keep eating. and @.@ how. is this my life? with full affection and acknowledgment of the BAMFness that is your writing skills: i. blame. you. i don't know how i'll ever recover from this. at all. ever @.@

sincerely, me
