Title: Slipping Through the Cracks
Author: Harper Kingsley
Character: Franz Caulder/Ryan Wilder, Dr. Pamela Werth, Nicole Carson
Genre: mm
Rating: mature
Summary: Kid Nitro went to sleep in his own bed, and woke up on another Earth in the body of an alternate Franz Caulder. It's a world without metabilities, which is jarring enough, but it's also a world where Other-Franz is a mental patient grappling with some serious problems.
* * *
Franz went to sleep in his bed.
He woke up to a changed world.
The first thing he noticed, even before he opened his eyes, was that his sheets were strangely scratchy and his mattress was mysteriously hard with more jabby parts than he had ever experienced before. He imagined it was what lying on a bed of nails was like.
Franz sat up with a groan and his eyes widened in shock as he looked around

...got seriously weird this weekend, with a visit to Vlad the Impaler's castle (yes, they were contemporaries, Vlad died when Leonardo was 24). Not 100% sure if Vlad is nuts, really a vampire, some other sort of immortal / supernatural creature, or some or all of the above, except something happens which suggests he has some unusual powers.
As a prelude to the visit Leonardo sent someone shopping for magnesium, about 250 years too early, which lends more weight to the idea that there is something VERY timey-wimey going on. And we got a lot more nudity, lots of casual sex and violence, and more of Leonardo doing a Sherlock impersonation in his intuitive understanding of spatial relationships.
Bottom line, this is a very weird show and I'm enjoying it enormously. Thanks again to
rozk for bringing it to my attention.
Bates Motel 1x10 MidnightWell, at least this episode made me rather firm in my total not caring of Bradley now. Here's the problem she's screwing with Norman Bates, but even if you ignore that Norman Bates is Norman Bates. Well, first she uses a virgin (one who's also clearly in love with her) for a one night stand and while that wasn't actually horrible the rest kinda is. Because now she's pretty much openly going for his brother in front of him. DAYUM! I don't care that this is Norman Bates she's doing it to, because it's just shitty behavior I don't care who she's doing it to. Somehow I think I just don't like that Norma is proving to be pretty much right about her assessment of Bradley. I guess I just wanted Bradley to actually be a good person - one I wanted to root for and feel bad when Norman finally does his business, but now I'll be cheering Norman.
(Oh, and if that's not bad enough now she's lying about it all - you see, she's still with the dude she was dating when the show began, and that dude confronts Norman in this episode, and reveals that Bradley has lied her ass off - she's told him that Norman took advantage of her. UGH! If anything she's the one who took advantage of Norman.)
But even Dylan somewhat pisses me off in this, because while he does seem to be holding back a bit - I personally think he should outright be trying to push her away, especially knowing more about Norman and the whole situation than Bradley. At the very least he freakin' knows his brother is having dreams about drowning Bradley. So, I think if he cared about her at all he'd be trying to run her off instead of half-ass encouraging her, because while he doesn't know that drowning Bradley took Norman to a happy place he does know that idea is in his head.
I guess it is mildly interesting that this show has taken me from loving Bradley to pretty much extremely hating her and wishing the show would have Norman get on with...
--Cut-- Click here for more --Cut-- I said I would carve out some time to write on Friday, and I did, but I ended up spending most of it reworking the outline for chapters 20 and 21. I did get some work done on 20 as well, and I am nearly done with it. Another page or two and it will be complete, though it will still require proofing and maybe a bit of polishing before it's ready to post.
On a slightly different note, a few complications and a overdue decision which I've very recently made will leave RL extremely full and hectic within the next few weeks. I hope to get a couple chapters done and the rest of the planned chapters outlined and ready to flesh out before it all hits the fan. Fingers crossed. Whatever the speed of my progress however, I will continue to work on HSP and when it's done, the other sequel(s) I have in mind whenever I can. And again, thanks so much to everyone who has asked for updates lately, it's nice to have more than just my own stubborn determination and inability to leave the story unfinished to propel me along.

Officially there are no seminars/lectures/tutorials for MA students in the summer term. In practice I find that, as long as I don't mind being the only person not in possession of or working towards a PhD, there are lots of guest speakers, reading groups and seminars I can find to assuage my compulsive communicator leanings. There was a very interesting session last week about interdisciplinary gender studies, with a genuine range of disciplines, although a lot of time was spent debating inter/trans/cross and various other prefixly forms of disciplinarity, and the way it fits into the neoconservative/neoliberal project. (Are they the same? Am I the Good Slayer now?)
Yesterday I spent the morning playing with seven-year-olds, on the WWPS programme - a bunch of "tall writers" go into a primary school to work with children jaded by "literacy", to try to get them excited about writing. It is certainly needed - in the first session they were really concerned about the need to use compound sentences and put in lots of commas. :-( Yesterday my partner and I had them lying on big sheets of paper, drawing outlines of each other (no, we weren't setting up a murder investigation) and then considering the outside and the inside of a personality - Stanislavskian building a character, but more fun. And a boy who told us he hates literacy wouldn't stop writing to come to join the group by the end of the session - a result, I think.
It is so depressing seeing conscientious, committed, intelligent, experienced primary teachers having to follow official guidelines and drain the life out of creative writing when the children are seven. And it's so clear that they have no idea how sentence structures might work to improve their own writing - just parrot the terminology. That's all Mr Gove wants....
Had a pretty upsetting day at work. I sink in so much effort to meet customers’ needs and in the end still remained unappreciated. Sometimes I wondered why the hell I do so much at work for such ungrateful people, …

--Cut-- Click here for more --Cut-- I've been having a lot of fun trying to get my garden prepared. It is finally warming up here, so that doesn't leave me much time to get my seedlings in the ground. I truly adore this time of year. I love watching things come to life and bloom.
I've been bring my time to rethink my life lately. Mostly because of my health, but it has required me to examine some of my goals.
For example, children is one issue. I have finally come to accept that physically it will not happen for me. I have not quite closed the door on adoption, but I know it is a far off goal.
As for the rest of it it's just a matter of rethinking how I'm going to approach my future career. There's a lot of things I can't do anymore because of my physical conditions. That has been the hardest, letting go of a dream.
For now I'm taking it one day at a time.
Posted via LiveJournal app for Android.Because I haven't updated in forever since April, this entry will be mostly about things I did in April.
Los Angeles just seems like a completely different country compared to Orange County. First of all, there's the problem of traffic, which I battled with for the majority of the time I drove in LA yesterday.
Anyway. On April 21 I went to see Whose Line Is It Anyway. I had a ticket and everything and the line was rather long, but I was hoping I would be able to get in to see the show. To make a long story short, I didn't (kind of-ish). Apparently they ran out of room so they moved all the people who wanted to go to the overfill room to the overfill room, which was just another room. It was from that room that me and a bunch of other people saw the show being taped. We saw it on TV screens. Needless to say, it was a bit of a downer.
(And, also, it's a common thing for TV studios to give out a bunch of tickets for TV tapings because they want to get a full house? IDK. Their logic, while quite logical--they want to make sure all seats are filled--is, at the same time, quite illogical, because there were people there who were hoping to actually get into the taping room and see it live and not from the overfill room.)
So anyway, fast forward to around 10 PM--3/4 of the people who had been in the room already left, so it was just me, a group of four people, and two other people. Then this guy comes in and says they need two people, because apparently there are two empty seats, and they need those filled for when they film the audience (IDK--something like that) and, considering how I was just the one person in my group (I'm suddenly reminded of the Muppets song Me Party--wow), I said I would go. Because why not? I needed a change.
So I got to be in the same room as the WLiiA cast for about fifteen minutes.
Overall, if I had the opportunity, I would probably go again, but I would get to the st...

Stargate Hyperdrives are too fast.
MUCH too fast.
So I’m doing research for this story, and looking up various bits of Star Wars and Stargate technology, and eventually I’m looking at Hyperdrives.
And I find the entries for the various races, and I’m reminded of how absurdly powerful their engine tech is. The Goa’uld basically have the crappiest version, with the standard mothership turning out a mere 32,000 times lightspeed.
O_O
Holy. Shit.
So basically, even the ‘slow’ hyperdrive lets you cross the entire galaxy in roughly three years. Which gives the main bad guys access to something on the order of 200 BILLION star systems. Then we have the Asgard and Ancient technology (which includes the tech Anubis incorporates into the Goa’uld ships later on) which are immensely faster, to the point of making jaunts to other galaxies a fairly trivial thing.
This is just silly, and will therefore be massively nerfed in my fanfic material. Any System Lord would find plenty to keep him occupied in a territory just a few hundred light years across; lots of planets, lots of slaves, etc, etc. So a top speed of say, 2500 times lightspeed or so would serve all their needs. If you need to go further/faster, well, there are Stargates for that.
So, finally got around to watching season 1 of Heroes on Blu ray. I am through the fifth season. I can see why everyone was so jazzed on the show when it first came out. It's very impressive.
I didn’t take the day off for the Cambridge wedding, but I’m enough of a royal watcher still to take today off at work and spend the day in front of the television set. I’m fortunate enough as a royal watcher to have the transmission going on in two channels, with both Trond Norén Isaksen commenting for NRK and Kjell Arne Totland for TV2 Nyhetskanalen. Royal experts on both channels.
I’ve chosen to go with NRK for this – if only for the lack of commercials.
And now the royal family have appeared, and Beatrix is getting ready to sign her own abdication.
I’d say it is a once in a lifetime occasion, but as the Prince of Wales would argue (he was also present at the investiture of Beatrix) in the Netherlands it happens more frequently than that.

~Sadly my car needs work on it again, after the radiator burst and caused overheating and making the head have issues so it'd continue to overheat, now it's the catalytic converter and the pre-catalytic. We fixed the catalytic, temporarily, but now it's the pre-catalytic that isn't flowing right. It won't accelerate properly, takes forever on flat ground and on an incline it struggles to maintain a decent speed. And by decent speed I mean if I don't have insane momentum then on bad inclines I'm lucky if I can keep 20mph. So that means visiting M requires city streets only, freeways on the way to him go up and down too much. Joy. Now we save and save because car comes before finishing my almost finished computer.
~Because of helping his friend D, M has most of the parts for my new computer build and it's exciting. Too bad it won't be done soon, oh well. I have a shiny LAN box and a motherboard and processor, going to borrow one of M's video cards for now so just need RAM and a hard drive. If the one in my mac mini isn't dying, I'll just use it, but I have to test. It's been shutting itself down, hopefully it's just a heating issue.

Back in Halloween she dressed up as Delirium-Who-Was-Once-Delight, in particular, the design from my icon.
I just got a package from her. It contained
One (1) card in an enveloped marked "To: [Morag] Happy Birthday and Merry Christmas (much belatedly) P.S. open presents before the card (card contains spoilers)" with many stars on
AND
One (1) boomerang from Australia (I'm hoping she wasn't intending this as a death threat ala Scandal in Belgravia, but then I remembered I can't even make a yo-yo work, there's no way I'll actually get a boomerang to come back
AND Twelve (12) crocheted and knitted fish of many varieties.
So, if I find a cheap old black leather jacket, here in meatspace, I can actually look like I do on the internets.

There are two things I’ve been wanting to do lately. to do. Get back into writing fic, and write a Sims story. Well, thanks to some comments made on a message board I frequent (
this one right here) the two ideas sort of merged in my brain. I thought, “Hey, I could write a Sims story using, say, Chloe and Lex. That could be fun!”
In a Sims Story is, you basically create some Sims, follow them through their life, and write about what they do and what happens to them. Usually with pictures. And you try to do it in a way that tells an interesting story.
I’ve never done a Sims Story before, but I think it will be fun. Let’s see, shall we?
I'm using the Sims 3, by the way. I'm not playing with any extensions because they slow down my game. But I might up and install one while playing.
Now on to the story.
Chapter 1: Moving On Down...for a WhileOur story begins some time in season 4, and things are pretty normal for good old Smallville. Lionel has wheedled his way out of prison. Lex thinks he and Clark might possibly maybe be friends again…but he’s not sure. And Chloe is bending over backwards for
her friends, who don’t really seem to appreciate it. You know, the usual.
One day, Lex is working in his study (mostly trying to think of ways
not to have to deal with his father) when the door bursts open.
In marches Chloe, looking as intense and determined as he’s ever seen her. Which is saying something.
“You know what?” she began without preamble. “If we don’t get out of here, this town is going to drive the both of us nuts. That or kill us!”
A thoughtful frown puckering his brow, Lex idly rubbed his chin. She did have a point. Despite its quaint and peaceful small town image, Smallville didn’t seem very healthy for anyone. Especially the...

Here's my card, if that gives you any ideas, although you don't have to include a kink with your prompt.)
Fandoms: Avengers (probably not good for anything with Bruce), Downton Abbey, Harry Potter, Doctor Who (2005 onwards), and of course my reliable standbys of Buffy/Giles, Buffy crossovers, and Aragorn/Boromir/Arwen. Crossovers, AUs, and threesomes welcome, multiple prompts totally welcome, and success is most likely if there's at least one female character in the mix (there are occasional exceptions, but I think Tony/Thor is pretty much the only one for any of these fandoms).
Edit: Oh, also Game of Thrones!
Kinda tempted to try last year's game, of all Buffy crossovers, again, but THOR.

I signed up for
Phineas and Ferb offering only female characters (I think it was Candance and Isabella?). It's a fandom which really frustrates me with how often it fails the Bechdel test, so it was really important for me to include as many female characters as possible and focus on their homosocial relationships. (
wneleh asked for gen, even though I was really tempted to throw in some Stacy/Vanessa femslash, because
guh.) My original plan was to write an angsty introspective fic split into three sections, with about 350 words each from Stacy's, Vanessa's, and Isabella's perspectives. But I quickly realized that their canon characterizations are so totally wrapped up in their relationships to the male characters on the show that I didn't really have anything to write about. Thus I decided to write a slightly more plotty fic (in that there's...
Omigod it was amaze-balls! The casting was spot-on; the acting was absolutely phenomenal and believable and everyone looked perfect!I was especially impressed with the casting of the female roles, as they managed to find actresses who actually looked the part of the time-period the movie portrays.Scarlett Johansson’s portrayal of Janet Leigh in the role of Marion Crane: the fear of the character as well as the apprehension of an actress approaching an entirely new role in cinematography is entirely apparent and beautifully portrayed.Anthony Hopkins as Alfred Hitchcock was an amazing pick by the casting director(s) and I applaud them not only in that, but in their choice of Helen Mirren as his wife, and self-admitted better-half, Alma Reville. Together they brought to life the story of director and wife as they changed the face of horror films in America forever.I would recommend this movie to anyone, whether or not they are fans of the work of Alfred Hitchcock or the actors and actresses chosen for this great piece. The movie has a unique mix of drama and suspense, highlighted by the well-placed and well-timed comedy, and was well-worth the wait, time, and money!
This is even better than the original. Love so much!

Hello lovely Yuletide Writer,
First of all: Thank you so much! Yuletide is one of my favorite parts of the holiday season.
General things: I'm happy with gen or with het, slash and femslash are good if it's canon. I'll read any rating, but I'd rather no PWP. I have no problems with violence or with foul language. Crossovers are loved, but by no means expected. You can get an pretty good idea of my fandoms by looking at my interests in my LJ profile. Or my username is the same on ff.net and AO3.
Fandom specific:
The Thick of It: I know Sam's about a grand total of about 60 seconds of screen time, but the small TTOI fandom has embraced her, and so have I. She must be something special to have neither been fired by Malcolm nor run screaming from him. So I'd love something with her. Malcolm/Jamie/Sam is my not-so-secret love, but I know that's pretty niche, and I adore these characters so much, that I'd pretty much be thrilled with anything. Tone-wise, something that matches the show would be good (but of course that runs a pretty wide gamut). Set any time during the series or pre/post canon is fine.
Veep: Not too much to add to my original request. With Veep, I would definitely prefer comedy.
Deadwood: The cancellation of this show still makes me furious. It's Deadwood, so something dark or introspective would be grand. But the show always had it's lighter moments, so if that's what your more comfortable with, great. But please, nothing totally fluffy. As I said, Adams is my favorite, though I love everyone else on the show as well. I like that he fills a spot for Al that Dan can't. Al and Dan have a closer bond of course, but when Al needs somebody who can see nuance and the longer game, that's Adams.
It just makes me smile (and jump up and down very much to my boyfriends amusement)

Broken down, left to start on the ground.
Again through all I've gone before,
a new prospective, a new me; without you.
You thought you'd torn me apart,
and perhaps you did.
But all the kings horses and all the kings men
were able to put this girl back together again.
It's so frightening, refreshing, rejuvenating
to start over, perhaps one day with someone new.
What was the purpose in hurting me?
What did that prove?
Did you really think that I'd stay,
couldn't be without you.
As afraid as I am of being alone,
it is nothing compared to the thought.
The thought of being stuck forever.

--Cut-- Click here for more --Cut-- Hi everyone! My
Roads Travelled site went through a giant update when it came to art a few days ago because I have been forced to re-imagine the cast for the first war due to age-issues. Isla Fisher does not look to be in her early twenties, and neither does Sam Troughton or Johnny Depp. All my other actors, minus Sarah Michelle Gellar, were born during the same decade, and therefore looks to be around the same age: Isla, Sam and Johnny don't, unfortunately.
This means a lot of the art has been remade to fit the new actors: Karen Gillan, Iwan Rheon and Ben Barnes. BUT Sam Troughton and Johnny Depp will still portray Peter and Sirius, but AFTER the first war - that is, from the AU versions of book 1-7, during the second war, when they're supposed to be in their thirties. I could never let go of my vision of Johnny as Sirius entirely and as for keeping Sam - well, I never thought Timothy Spall was right, considering after he's lived as a rat for twelve years, Peter was supposed to be thin...
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the new art and hope you don't mind this major change/update. For me, it means I have to start from scratch with my videos (and I was almost done!), but I think it will be worth it in the long run, considering Roads Travelled probably won't be done for years yet!
