Right. I've had something of a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad week, and from what I understand, I am not alone. Add in the fact that Remix X signups are opening VERY SOON and I don't qualify for the fandoms I'd like to write in most... The obvious answer is the thing that makes me happiest in the world. CLICHES. So, whatever, let's do a thing.

The Multi-Fandom Cliche Meme

Fake boyfriends, accidental marriages, and amnesia, OH MY!

Details here!

1) HAPPY BIRTHDAY aredblush YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE, BB. ♥

2) Remix time is coming up soon! I know a lot of us have fandoms we don't qualify for that we'd like to, so I was considering doing a multifandom comment meme/prompt fest to help get the story counts where it would need to be. But the question becomes: Random prompts? A specific type of prompt? Or a theme?

( Collapse )

3) Inspiration is hard! And while I'm trying to figure out item #2, I thought it'd be fun to try try and get a headstart. So, whatever, a different kind of meme:
The iPod Shuffle
No, not that one. Let's be honest, when we need inspiration, the first place we go is our music library. So let's try something a little bit different. My music library is no help to me, but maybe it can be for someone else. Here's how this thing works:
1) Comment to this post, and I'll give you a prompt in the form of whatever song shuffles up next on whatever music player I've got going at the time.
2) Turn on the music player of your choice to shuffle, post this to your own journal and dole out prompts. No, you can't hide your shameful music. If it shuffles up, that's the gig.
3) Write/draw/whatever way you create for the prompt you've been given: post it. Again, no hiding the shame. Even if you think it's awful, post it.
4) Link your finished product to the prompt comment, because it's always lovely to see the results. ♥

MULTI FANDOM CUDDLING MEME 2: CUDDLE HARDER

... This is me begging forgiveness for my absence, btw. Please don't hate me, internet. Please write me cuddles. :(

Right. So, apparently I can't figure out how to crosspost. Shocker.

EVEN MORE SHOCKING?

I wrote Hunger Games fic. This Is the World We Wanted.

I'm just going to go hide now. And try to figure out this damn crossposting thing again.

Except to say, I finally canceled my automatic renewal for LJ. So if I haven't found you on DW yet, let's, yeah?

Right, I've been pretty much absent from everything not twitter, but I still have ~feelings.

Sadly, right now, they aren't good ones toward LJ. From here on forward, I'll probably cross post from dreamwidth, for as active as I am. Just a reminder, of course, I can be found everywhere that I have an account with this same username. Twitter, pinboard, gmail, and dreamwidth. (For AIM, on the rare occasions that can happen lately, you have to add a "The" in front. Someone beat me to it, for the only time on the ENTIRE INTERNET. I'm still bitter.)

Anyway! COME JOIN ME IN MY DREAMWIDTH JOURNAL WARMING PARTY. FEEL FREE TO BRING A FRIEND.

Posting on the dl since I'm supposed to be working like a fucking bee or something idk, idk, I'm not used to having this many things on the list of Very Important Shit I Really Must Do. But! But, this is also VERY IMPORTANT, okay.

*\o/* *\o/* HAPPY BIRTHDAY, NAS *\o/* *\o/*

aredblush is one of the worst influences to ever influence, and she makes me do ridiculous things like write the Inception team as Care Bears, but she's amazing and kind and sweet and always there to make me smile when I'm ready to throw all the things. She is FANTASTIC and she deserves all the love and best wishes ever, ever, ever.

Basically, what I'm saying here is aredblush =

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

I still owe her like, a decent bday present, but in the meantime she's saying that this little thing I wrote about Steve's tattoos could count. Because she's awesome, if I haven't mentioned that before.

I'M JUST SAYING, OKAY.

Right. Now back to work.

Finally, finally, finally getting an issue with the restaurant taken care of, but it requires me to be there when I'm also supposed to be on the phone with the hospital, since my surgery is tomorrow. Still have other issues that aren't even close to getting fixed.

Let me just put this out there, for all future business owners, okay. Things that are not good buiness practice: making potential customers jump through hoops, not being available at the numbers listed, NOT CALLING PEOPLE WHO WANT TO BUY THINGS FROM YOU. Honest to god, you'd think it was a revolutionary concept. YOU ARE IN SALES. I NEED TO PURCHASE THINGS. WHY IS THIS SO DIFFICULT?

And like that wasn't stressing me out enough, ahahaha, seriously, I'm so randomly nervous about the surgery tomorrow. Which makes no sense, really, since I mostly just want the pain to stop.

What I never want to stop, however? the H50 cliche meme! It's proven to be the most excellent distraction so far today. Here's hoping it (and YOU GUYS, I love you guys!) will keep working it's magic while I get more and more freaked the fuck out. Here's hoping.

AH, okay, must now attempt to impersonate a real life functioning adult. Who is productive. Sigh.

Because there is no such thing as too much of a good thing, especially if you live in paradise:

The Hawaii Five-0 Cliche Meme

Fake boyfriends, accidental marriages, and amnesia, OH MY!

Whatever your poison, whatever you favorite cliche, it's open and allowed here. Want to see Steve and Danny make out for cover and discover their ~true feelings? What about when they have to pretend to be boyfriends to keep cover? When they're forced to share a bed all ~platonic-like for weeks and keep waking up cuddling and then can't sleep without each other? Maybe Grace playing matchmaker? The one where everyone but them realizes they're married? Danny gets de-aged to six and Steve has to take care of him? Steve gets magicked into a tiny, angry kitten and/or dragon? They one where they must cuddle for warmth to survive?

Maybe that isn't your flavor. Maybe you want the one where Kono is a punk rock princess that keeps getting into trouble? Or where Chin loses his memory and thinks he's back on the HPD force. Maybe the one where Kono is secretly a criminal mastermind, working the team from the inside. Or where she has the chance return to her pro surfing career and must choose. How about one where Chin goes on an epic road trip?

There is no bad cliche! Whatever your favorite, I promise I want to read/see it, too.

The Rules

♥ Every cliche welcome!
♥ All pairings, ratings, mediums, and genres can be included!
♥ Any word count works!
♥ Have fun and be kind. ♥♥♥

Comment and share the love! ♥

Well, this is going to work like a list again. Sometimes being multifannish is hard, yo.

1) Panic! moved their release date up by a week! I AM SO EXCITE. I feel like I've been waiting for basically ever.

2) The prompt post for this week's theme (kids!) is up at harlequincepted cause foxxcub is on the ball. I have so many things I want to write for this theme and no time at all to write them. WRITE THEM FOR ME, GUYS. PLEASE?

3) I missed Kurt tonight. And, uh, look, Sam is growing on me a lot. A lot a lot. Leaps and bounds. Basically I would be happy if this show was just Sam, Kurt, Blaine, Puck, Brittany and Santana.

4) I continue to be crazy, stupid in love with Hawaii Five-0. Crazy, stupid in love. Since it will be added to the Remix list this year, I was thinking about doing a H5-0 cliche meme, to help those (me) who might want to qualify for and don't. Plus, you know, I've never met a cliche I didn't like. FAKE BOYFRIENDS! Accidentally married! Kid!fic! One room at the inn! THINK OF ALL THE POSSIBILITIES, YOU GUYS.

5) A poll, before I rush in head first, since my online time is going to be a little more limited the rest of the week. Plus, ahahaha, Friday. (Stupid routine surgery, why are you terrifying?) Anyway!

Today has been a day, my surgery has been moved, all of the things failed to become accomplished, and I owe so very many comment and email answers. I will get to those, I swear! Cross my heart! But right now it's 1:42, and I've got a dentist appointment about 40 minutes away at 8 in the morning. So, I LOVE YOU, I WILL GET THERE, I SWEAR IT.

In the meantime, though, a few things I couldn't help but share:

1) Remix time is fast approaching, as it tends to do, and discussion of fandoms to add/remove is going on here. Just ftr though, Inception and H5-0 will both be added this year. I AM SO EXCITED. And need to hurry and get some fic written so I qualify in H5-0. But come over and join the discussion! See what'll it take for us to entice you all to come play with us this year! :DD

2) harlequincepted's new theme is up! We're going with kid!fic this round, which covers everything from baby-on-the-doorstep to Eames-is-suddenly-six. CANNOT WAIT to see what turns up in this. ♥

3) So there's this band you may have heard me mention once or twice. Empires? Tiny band I've done stupid things to see. Would do stupid things to see again. Yeah, yeah, you've seen the flail. These dudes are fantastic in at least a billion ways, and they are unsigned, and here is your chance to help them get some recognition they absolutely deserve by voting for them to be on the cover of Rolling Stone. Do it, do it, DO IT FOR ME, OKAY, IF NOT FOR THEM.

4) Seriously THANK YOU to all the people who told me about that thing on H5-0 tonight. Ahahaha. I will be updating the pimping post regularly to keep up with that thing. Probably not everything else, because, uh, not sure if you've noticed this but: STEVE AND DANNY ARE MARRIED. I'd try and show you every moment that proves it, but that's pretty much every minute they are on screen together. Also, because it really must be said, OH MY GOD TONIGHT'S EPISODE. OH MY GOD THEM. I love them so much.

5) EVERYONE SHOULD GO LOOK AT aredblush's SUPER AWESOME FANTASTIC Valentine's Day card. Bandom and Inception and HAWAII FIVE-OH, OH MY. Honestly, I think she can't be more amazing, and she draws a Steve/Danny ninja Spider-man kiss. DYING from how much I adore it. DYING.
