I go away on a wee holiday and the world does it's nut. Huh.

[hackthis_archive]

I love holidays. I may not come back from the next one, but since I had to come back from this one let's talk about some of the things that I pondered over my electronic-free week.

1. So, the Olympics... OMG can I have a Hamm twin? If Fred and George were Muggles, they would so be the Hamm twins. *pets Morgan and Paul* Also, I know everybody and their grandparents is on that Michael Phelps/Ian Thorpe trip. I know this because Ian was so unimpressed by Michael which made me laugh, but I have to say I have mad love for Gary Hall Jr., because he's totally Johnny Bravo in real life.

2. Why did no one tell me about Nip/Tuck before? Sweet Jesus. Until last week I'd only seen the first three episodes of S1 even though random_flores had loaned me her DVDs, and my first impression had been that Matt doesn't look like Sean -- he looks like a cloned Peter Gallagher(which I chalked up to that inexplicable telly casting), and OMG is Matt crushing on Christian? Also, Sean and Christian = so married. And then I saw the last two episodes for this season... Dude, I thought that Matt didn't look like Sean, and hey, it's because Christian is his daddy! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! It's a shame I can't slash'em now, but OMG, Sean and Christian are so in angsty turmoil with Sean's repressed love and Christan's over compensating for Sean's repression. I mean seriously, what man tells another man I loved you the most without being 50 miles past Obsessed? And then? THREESOME! I bet the prostitute just watched. Yes. Dude, where's the Nip/Tuck slash, don't hide it from me people! I have needs. Also, Rescue Me rocks.

3. I'm blown away by the results of the Citrus Awards. Apparently I won for Best Fight Scene in a Fic: Telegraph Avenue; Best HoYay (Ryan/Seth) Fic: Telegraph Avenue; Best Original Character: Telegraph Avenue (Jamie) (what, no Rex love?!); Best Overall Fic: Telegraph Avenue and Best Title: Seth as a Verb.

Wow. From the bottom of my depraved heart, thank you guys for this. I'm so pleased that you enjoy what I do. I can't tell you how much it means to me. *adores everybody with that just-back-from-holiday Zen*

4. WTF, sort of 90210-crack has Josh been smoking? The Bait Shop? Oy vey. How cheesy. How sad. Didn't we all agree that after the Oliver-debacle you would put the pipe down, baby?

5. What did I miss while I was away? Reccs? Sex? Chocolate? Did somebody finally buy me my own SarkLexSethNevilleDraco? Shall I expect delivery directly? How exciting!

I am totally feeling shades of both My So-Called Life and The Heights here. I think our baby Josh is a wee bit obsessed with teen drama shows in prime time.

I think that the major plot arcs, though, are actually pulled from a little known Charisma Carpenter and Keri Russell vehicle called Malibu Shores</i... Mhmm. That is my thesis.

It's the 90210 comparison wot done me in. The MS-CL comparison is only good if Marissa tries to do a Rayanne and sing in Seth's emo band, and that really would kill me. Really.

f Fred and George were Muggles, they would so be the Hamm twins.

Word. It's really kinda freaky, no?

And everybody may be on about Michael and Ian, but dude, give me Peiter van den Hoogenhotass any day. As for Gary Hall Jr, I have to love him simply because he's like 90% of the guys I grew up with, swimmers all of us.

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

I heart the Hamm's really. Also, Pieter von den Hoogenhotass? *snerk*

[rozza.livejournal.com]

Carrie and I are working off the theory that the Flying Dutchman, Thorpe and Phelps have a triangle going on. I personally chalked up Gary's sour grapes over the relay as wanting to make it a romantic square. Or maybe Ian passed him, the older swimmer, up for Phelps, the young piece of ass. Quite frankly I've been writing swim slash in my head for the past week and now that it's over I might actually have to put some of it down on paper. Which is a scary thought in itself.

The Bait Shop. Why? Honestly I just want to know if the two characters that kiss during the Walkmen's scene are Ryan and Seth.

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

There's like comms for the that stuff you know. Not that I've read any of it, but you *know* it's out there. Yes. Also, you know I am right there with you on The Bait Shop? *sigh*

[rozza.livejournal.com]

I'm sure there are, but my failed quest for decently written (and I'm talking about settling for anything below a 10% error rate, grammarwise, which I feel is being very generous) Final Fantasy 8 fic has kind of put me off searching out any new fandoms.

[ztrin.livejournal.com]

You don't know me, but I'm just helping with the pimpin'. You can find great FF8 fic (I'm assuming slash) here: Squall/Seifer (http://www.digitalmidnight.net/prettyboy/), because that was the pairing I was into.

[rozza.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'll definitely check that out! Thank you. I love Squall/Seifer. Their duel in the intro video is just spellbinding. How unfortunate that it switches back to Rinoa/Squall before we can see Squall and Seifer attack each other in a sexual way.

and OMG is Matt crushing on Christian?

Aw man, it's so true. I was rather disappointed when I realised it would be too squicky to 'ship them.

My own rather exhaustive search for Nip/Tuck slash (or fic of any kind) brought up . . . nothing. Nada. Zip. Zilch. What kind of a sick/wrong/cruel world is it that we live in?

Nothing? At all? But but but...I mean look at them! And last week, Sean and Christian and all that tension. *sigh*

"I loved you the most"


OMG i sqeauled!

[angel-grace.livejournal.com]

Y'all can keep Thorpe, Phelps, and AssHall, Jr. It's all about the Peirsol love for me. :)

And the Bait Shop? Fuck. Lame to the lame degree. Unless, of course, there is Ryan/Seth kissage.

Discovered Nip/Tuck about two months, and am hopelessly addicted as well. Just bought the S1 DVDs! Woot!

And finally...congratulations!

1. You're an aerosol girl, huh ;)
2. Lame lame lame [/sing-sing voice]
3. FX is selling crack, yes.
4. Thanks!

i created it, tis lonely, write fic please!

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Oh sweetie, I'm not qualified to write this, but I shall cross my fingers and hope someone else will do the honours.

join thouugh ok?
none of my comm's have any members, :-(

Your love and energy for the love of slash is how I now am starting to feel about yuri. Don't get me wrong, I always enjoy reading your yaoi and it gets me fired up about man/man shenanegans more than I would have thought possible, but for some reason the thought of a woman's lips on mine is tantalizing. ;T grr.

I'm glad you had a great holiday. Now I hope you're renewed for the following weeks ahead to provide me with great ... entertainment ... in the middle of a boring work-school day. My office mates still ask me why I burst into hyperventilation/laughter/chuckles/smirks/random face fanning whenever I'm in front of the computer. I have to lie and say I'm just excited about school. Curse you. And bless you, too.

I comepletely share your Gary Hall Jr love. He's cocky and arrogant and backs it all up. I loved his interview where he talked about his doubters and naysayers and made his little 'I dare ya' comment.

And congrats on the Citrus Awards. I think Telegraph Avenue may be the most recommended fic in the OC fandom.

Also, I know everybody and their grandparents is on that Michael Phelps/Ian Thorpe trip. I know this because Ian was so unimpressed by Michael which made me laugh, but I have to say I have mad love for Gary Hall Jr., because he's totally Johnny Bravo in real life.

Dude. I've been in love with Gary Hall Jr since Atlanta in 1996. I'd let that boy give me CACTUPUNCTURE (hahahahahaha!!) anytime he wants! ;-)

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

I'd let that boy give me CACTUPUNCTURE (hahahahahaha!!) anytime he wants! ;-)

AHHHHHHHHHH! I was totally going to mention that in my post, but then I was all 'Dez, is gonna think I'm nuts, she won't even remember,' but you do! *adores Dez*

[shoewhore.livejournal.com]

Of course I remember! How could I ever forget? Cactupuncture will forever be burned in my brain when I see anything related to Johnny Bravo. ;)

If you find some N/T slash or threesome fic, please let me know! I've been watching that show since it started, and I haven't been able to find any. I think it's the best show on TV right now! It so should have gotten an emmy nomination. I wrote a post about that ep here, BTW. http://www.livejournal.com/users/meret/276849.html?nc=5

Congratulations on the award! :)

[meret.livejournal.com]

I realized my post on N/T contains spoilers on old eps you may not have seen yet. Sorry!

[clarity-g.livejournal.com]

Can I just say how much I love Telegraph Avenue. I read the whole thing at once! I've only just jumped on the Seth/Ryan bandwagon as we've only had the O.C. in Australia for a couple of weeks. Your fic was AWESOME. Seth and Ryan were so spot on, and Jamie was a great OC! One I actually liked, even though I was begging for Seth to not try and get back with Jamie but to go after Ryan! Thank you so much for this fic! Can't wait to read more!
