Popping the cherry

[sirona_fics]

Saw my first episode of Hawaii Five-0 tonight, and -- yeah, okay, yes, I can see now what all the fuss is about. Aaaaand now I have to download all the episodes so far, which is a whole world of NOT GOOD since I have five weeks of exams coming up reeeeealy soon (like, next week soon). Ergo, this is a VERY BAD IDEA.

Doesn't look like that's going to stop me any. :/

I'm still stuck stuck stuck with my writing. I have three stories that are 2/3 done, and I can concentrate on finishing neither. On top of that I got my next Arthur/Eames exchange assignment (due 1st Feb), I have one A/E story planned out but not started, and bugeyedmonster gave me one hell of a Sherlock plot bunny yesterday.

This is me, running around in a panic, frantically waving my arms around in desperation for any kind of muse interference. He's being an utter arse, and not in a nice way, either. He's pretty much hanging out of a window smoking his way through an entire pack of fags, shoving two fingers up at me with a sneer when I try to talk to him (he's starting to look more and more like Sherlock these days, complete with grumpy sulk). BUT IN MY HEAD. /0\

Scatterbrain = me today (and I thought I'd finally get the chance to write now that the hols are over). Doesn't help that I spent pretty much the entire day re-reading the twelve chapters of Jesse's Jack Saturday Can't Fail written so far (and flailing no end in excitement over Jack's backstory that Jesse just posted). WHY BRAIN WHY.

ANYWAY. Spent 45 minutes peeling Brussel sprouts and chestnuts tonight, in the process cutting my thumb under my fingernail. My fingers hurt. My brain hurts. It's been a shitty day all round. :/

Ooohhh!! Welcome to the Hawaii 5-0 fandom!! It's such a nice place/show. You've probably already seen these, but:

primer

must read fanfiction

must * watch * videos

As for the various pains, 1) please be careful and do no hurt yourself; 2) would talking about the stories/plot bunnies help? If so, consider me at your disposal :)

OMG OMG JUICY FIC RECS!!!! THANK YOU DARLING!! <3

This is REALLY NOT GOOD AT ALL in terms of upcoming exams.

In terms of awesomeness, though -- 20/10.

Ack... I didn't mean to be a 'bad' person and distract you from studying... What do you say if I promise to bookmark all the good fics I read from now until when you are done with your exam and then I pass you a mega file of recs?

ps: I love your icon. I still have to go hunting for icons in this fandom :(

♥

YES. PLEASE.

I love that icon, too! As soon as I get into a new fandom, icons are the very first thing I gorge on. I've loads I've yet to update! There are plenty over at stevedannoslash.

Okay, will do. I don't read everything that comes out, because I don't have much time, unfortunately, and also because I'm in a lot of different fandoms at the moment. I will bm for you everything I think to be good that I read. If you want I can do the same for other fandoms as well. Here's what I'm reading: Inception, Hawaii 5-0, Sherlock bbc, Sherlock movieverse, White Collar, The Losers. Occasionally other fandoms as well (for example SGA, SG1, Die Hard, Star Trek...). Let me know.

I always mean to go icon hunting and then other things take precedence :(

EDIT: I forgot spn, but I'm on a crowley/gabriel or crowley and gabriel or spn/good omens kick, so it's kind of a small corner of fandom that I'm reading into.
