Are we there yet? Why the fuck not?

1. NCIS people, new rule. If it's written by [livejournal.com profile] spoonyriffic? READ IT. What she's doing is what I *thought* Gibbs/DiNozzo was supposed to be, snarky and fun and hot. What the hell is up with all the angst and woe and leather chains and fic where Tony's balls are mysteriously missing? Are y'all watching the same show I am?

2. The Hurt Locker. War movie with Jeremy Renner (Walsh from the Unusuals, bitches!) and Guy Pearce! Or as one commenter put it It's basically "Generation Kill", just with different characters and not enough time to develop all the characters. I needs to be seeing this I think.

3. Is anybody else having one of those days too? You know the kind where you wouldn't piss on somebody even if they were on fire? EXACTLY.

4. I like Green Day. I dunno if I've ever mentioned this to you lot, but I do. I have them on my iPod under 'Baby Clash' - yes I have a genre called Baby Clash, because everybody wants to be The Clash, but nobody really is. I was thinking about my Green Day like the other day because Stephen had them on The Report and they were doing 'Know Your Enemy' and it wasn't half bad. I wouldn't pay to see them, but I do not object. And believe me I object to a lot.

Wait, I have to finish this with something happy. Oooh, better yet, [livejournal.com profile] sparky77 had this thing where she asked people to mention a fandom and she'd give three unpopular opinions about it. I'll take the one and tweak it a little. Give me a character or a fandom you've seen me write and I'll give you at least three facts about him/her/it.

Um... there is always high school aus. I love high school aus. They make the world a better place. And Nate would be the class president and be adorablely earnest.

FOR THIS YOU HAVE EARNED MY UNDYING DEVOTION!

Not that you didn't have it, of course, but Z just sniffs at me when I mention the hs AU, but YOU. You are like a secret weapon. I need to remember this fact.

The hs AU makes me SO HAPPY but I often wonder where the tension comes from. Is it just a virgins/is he being nice or does he want me thing? Because Brad seems to take great liberties with Nate, to which Nate is very receptive, so I'm like, they're not fucking...why, exactly?

Possibly I should direct this Z's way, but I'm rambling. And also, I love you. ::twirls::

Brad bringing the ladder from his house to climb up to Nate's bedroom in 2 in the morning, b/c he knows Nate's awake and studying (he would've woken him up anyway). Nate's all tired and rumpled, floppy hair everywhere, and he sees Brad and he tries to pretend like he's not pleased, and Brad's all, you should be in bed! And Nate's all STFU I am studying for Calculus and Brad's all, pfft easy, I will help you. Sit next to me on your bed. And Nate's like, do you think I'm that stupid?

FUCK, YEAH!

Adorable? Adorable. Also, motorcycles would kill Nate with the hotness. And make his hair even floppier. Why are they not jumping each other? I am not understanding this.

...oh, God. You're gonna write one of those Deep, Meaningful stories, aren't you? The ones that break me. I'm not complaining about this at all, for I love those.

I'm not sure it's Brad/Ray/Nate in the typical definition of /

To which I say: oh, good. 'Cause I was having some trouble seeing that, though if anyone can convince me, it'd be you.

[identity profile] romanticalgirl.livejournal.com 2009-06-24 06:09 am (UTC)(link)
There are nine pages of possible breakage already. God, this fandom makes me *wordy*.

I have a hard time picturing them in a threesome, especially for any length of time, but I can see [livejournal.com profile] hackthis's point about Nate's thoughts on Brad. I mean, I can see them as OTP as well as this kind of "what is this we have going on" and Ray's personal investment in them and them not screwing everything up.

Which isn't to say I won't, at some point, write a threesome with them. I mean, I certainly wouldn't put it past me.

[identity profile] alethialia.livejournal.com 2009-06-24 06:20 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm. This intrigues me. I still mull over that one comment where you were impressing on me how Not Okay Brad would be with Nate fucking any other guys. The take-home of which was Brad Doesn't Share. Which I GET. And agree with. (Thus why the threesome with Ray or even Nate/Ray...I don't see it.) Because, were Nate into guys, why would he be with anyone who isn't Brad? But then I also see the point about Ray's overinvestment in their relationship and Brad's continued mental health and how that would...intrude upon their relationship. But then making the leap to 'well, it'll solve everything if Nate and Ray have sex'...yeah, not there.

Now my brain hurts.

I might have finished fic to soothe it. If you were so inclined.

Always!

Sent! And now I need to crash. 5:30 comes early.

Ha!!! I am always all about the highschool aus. And Brad and Nate making out under the bleachers. And on the back of a motorcycle. And in detention. Which Nate had never even been in detention before he started hanging out with Brad. And it doesn't matter that he's already been excepted into first, second, and third choice school, he had a perfect record, and Brad ruined it.

[identity profile] alethialia.livejournal.com 2009-06-24 07:04 am (UTC)(link)
Terrible influence, that Brad. They should've sent him to military school. For shame.

Hee! Such love. Of course Nate wouldn't give himself any slack on the perfect record; it's a matter of HONOR. For which Brad mocks him terribly because never being in detention is hardly a mark of honor. In fact, it may be more honorable just on principle of defying The Man.

Which obviously means they need to do it MORE. I feel bad for their teachers. Kind of.

Oh man, if you want company going to see The Hurt Locker, I'm in. I can't convince any of my friends to go with me because they're all lame.

[identity profile] hackthis.livejournal.com 2009-06-24 03:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Shhh. i am in negotiations with this subject matter. We must be wery wery quite, I am hunting wabbits.

[identity profile] hackthis.livejournal.com 2009-06-24 03:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I am actually waiting on the DVD at this point.

Mob!Brad...
1. Knew all about Nate long before they met. In fact, it's possible (fact) that Brad had been watching Nate from afar for quite some time. He would never have taken the job without doing his recon.

2. Knows *exactly* what he's doing when he wanders around Nate's house in his underwear. He's kind of piqued that it took Nate so long to get with the program.

3. Has honestly thought about kidnapping Nate on more than on occasion. Just for his own good.

[identity profile] hackthis.livejournal.com 2009-06-24 03:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Ray...

1. Is not a card carrying member of the homosexual club. But he has thoughts about Brad. Sometimes. He can't help it. When they're not fighting and Brad's not being all stoic and shit, Ray kind of loves him. Like a lot.

2. Knows some shit is occuring beween the LT and Brad and will totally fuck the LT's shit up if he hurts brad.

3. Is physically incapable of eating Charms

Bonus!
4. Thinks he would be an awesome heavy metal country singer, but Brad would never come to his shows, so he has to reconsider that one.

Crap, I can't believe I forgot to rec [livejournal.com profile] spoonyriffic in my comment last week. I really should have started a Delicious page so I could have just linked you there. I HAVE FAILED YOU. *rends clothing*

And I'm totally going to see The Hurt Locker. Go read this Newsweek article about Kathryn Bigelow.

Yay! Thank you for doing this.

And especially for number 1 because thats something that I've been pondering for ages - Brads motivation for taking the job (because its referred to several times how he's not for permanent hire). I love that it was because of Nate.

Now Im curious about how/when he first heard about Nate :D

[identity profile] alethialia.livejournal.com 2009-06-24 09:58 pm (UTC)(link)
1. I KNEW IT! I KNEW IT! THIS MAKES ME SO HAPPY! (As you know.) He probably followed Nate on those whoring exploits. We might need to mourn the whores.

[identity profile] hackthis.livejournal.com 2009-06-24 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
HAHAHAHAHAHA!

[identity profile] hackthis.livejournal.com 2009-06-24 10:28 pm (UTC)(link)
With a body like that, that really is a shame,

[identity profile] hackthis.livejournal.com 2009-06-24 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
You have failed your mission! Twenty lashes with a wet noodle!

[identity profile] spoonyriffic.livejournal.com 2009-06-25 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. Everyone should read my fic, for I am using it to take over the world enlighten people on the lovely snarkiness of the Gibbs/DiNozzo pairing. It needs to be done, dammit!

And oh yes. Jeremy Renner is the shit.

And I'm having one of those days today. Or, had. Or, whatever. Today was a craptacular day, filled with twenty different kinds of bullshit and fuckery. *facepalm*

[identity profile] hypertwink.livejournal.com 2009-06-25 07:03 pm (UTC)(link)
OMG, is Nate like Joey Potter? So there should be long-winded existential older-than-high-school witty banter.

In the event that this is not a GK/Dawson's mash-up, I know it should be the other way around but I kinda like Nate to be the pink-loving Andie Walsh to Brad's popular kid Blane.

It needs to be done, dammit!

String Theory. That's all I'm saying. Abby is sad about the lack thereof.

[identity profile] dancerev.livejournal.com 2009-06-27 06:29 am (UTC)(link)
Love, love, love your writing. You know sometimes where you want to read THE story for a certain show and after you've read it, you actually don't feel the need to read any others? Your Southland fic was it for me. And GK is by far the absolute best fandom I've ever read. Is it bad that I'm super excited for some James(Renner's character)/Nate with a side of jealous Brad? Lord knows those two alphas wouldn't back down. Sorry, just had to jump in after you mentioned the Hurt Locker!
