I think I'm in one of those moods. The kind where you're reading a fic and you suddenly find yourself blinking at the screen because huh that's not a pairing you're supposed to read. So you squint and you're like, 'why am I reading Sheppard/McKay? I thought I was supposed to like Beckett/McKay best? And now that I think of it, I thought I wasn't even interested in SG:A slash anymore?' So whatever the pairing, you don't really understand why you're suddenly reading this fandom. And that's when your eyes narrow suspiciously at the fic in front of you, because damn... the story is actually kinda cool.

What the hell was that about?

And since I'm on the subject. The O.C aired last Saturday and since I wasn't home I couldn't really watch it, though what I saw didn't impress me that much... until Seth appeared and caught my attention. Because Seth? Seems like the kind of character I love in all his geeky and sweet glory. I'll give another try to the show this Saturday, but in the meantime I decided to try some fics. So I cruised [livejournal.com profile] crack_van - because that's where you sometimes go rec shopping, right? But I'm afraid the stories I found were all fluffy and stuff. So could someone help me a bit? I mean, is there an archive somewhere at least? Or does someone have some angst/drama The O.C slash to rec me? Yeah I have issues, but I assume them all, I swear *bows*

On an unrelated note now, two little meme that I found cute, so there :

The LJ Meme :

Date you joined: 2003-06-06 05:49:52

Number of journal entries: 918

Number of people on your friends list: 122

Person who introduced you to LJ: Well technically, I heard about LJ via [livejournal.com profile] turps33 who had an account before I did and whose journal I visited now and then, but it looked like an alien world to me and I'd never felt the urge to create my own --which sounds so cute when I think about it now lol I finally decided to take the plunge after [livejournal.com profile] babycakesin joined LJ herself - without even telling me, btw, I had to discover her account by accident. And no, girl, I won't ever let you forget about it *sticks tongue* So yeah, my answer? Terri introduced me to LJ in general but Babycakes introduced me to LJ in a more personal way, so to speak. Oh and I got my invite code by Terri, too *g*

Still friends with this person: Are you kidding? Babycakes is one of my closest friends IRL and Terri is one of my closest friends ICL... and actually, in her case, it's more than just CL friend, so yeah, you could say that I'm still friend with those persons.

How many people have you introduced to LJ: Two : [livejournal.com profile] katikat and [livejournal.com profile] stacy_l. And I'm still congratulating myself, btw *g*

List everyone on your friends list who you have met in person: Eeeek I can actually answer that one too! So, since I've known [livejournal.com profile] babycakesin for more than five years, therefore before going on board of LJ, I guess she doesn't count? Blimey! Well I can still play, anyway, see if I care. I met [livejournal.com profile] alinewrites first, then [livejournal.com profile] yami_tai and her now-husband-then-fiancé and finally [livejournal.com profile] greedy_dancer. Aline twice actually *g* I plan on meeting more in the upcoming year though *determined look*

Anyone on LJ you can't stand: I read some people's LJ I couldn't stand yeah, but when it happens I certainly don't stay so I couldn't give names even if I wanted to, which I don't because what's the point? *blink*

Name one person on your friends list you would most like to meet: I'd really like to meet several people on my flist, but if I have to pick one name, it'll be [livejournal.com profile] turps33 first because man, she's my sis, my fanfic soulmate, my everything - well... you know lol But then [livejournal.com profile] katikat has been in my cyber life for a looooong time too, so she'd be high on the list as well and add to that the French Slashers Posse and.. yeah, well there're some other people I'd like to meet too *g*

Ever ban someone from commenting in your journal: Yes. Spammers who are both morons and homophobes aren't welcomed on my LJ. So I banned them *shrug* Well him to be exact.

Biggest pet peeve about LJ: Easy, users who don't use cut tags. This is my biggest pet peeve and since people keep on forgetting/not caring, I don't think it's going to stop anytime soon lol

Do you feel close to most of the people on your friends list: Close to most of my flist? No. But in case you're wondering, I do love my flist, that's beside the point *g*

How many journals on Live Journal do you have: This one, obviously. And I co-mod [livejournal.com profile] sentinel_thurs. [ETA: Oooops, I also co-mod [livejournal.com profile] kinky_spirit but I usually sorta forget about it, which sounds really bad I know, but I'll hunt for new kinky stories to have posted over there, promise. Like, when I'll have the time *cough* So hey, if you want to contribute? Be my guest *nod*]

And the Name meme :

Form of ALEXANDER - helper and defender of mankind

Name Origin: Greek
Number of Syllables: 3.00
Gender: Female

More interesting facts about the name :

Lucky Number: 7
Ruling Planet: Neptune
Element: Water
Primary Color: Violet
Traits: Frequently possesses E.S.P. Extremely "psychic"; Introvert. Although s/he does not say much, s/he usually knows a great deal. Mysterious. Often interested in psychology, psychiatry, chemistry, and botany. Knowledgeable in astrology and all fields of the occult. Fond of fishing. Inclined to take from the "haves" and give to the "have nots".

Yeah. Well. Those meme can't always be accurate though, right? lol But there're some elements that I like here, so I'll keep them anyway *g*

If you're bored and want to play, it's here

Also... do we have Lost tonight or not? Because I need to download it tomorrow, seriously! Please pretty please? Or will politics kill my episode this week? Note how I said 'we' even though I live in Europe, btw lol

And a last thing : Allez les Bleus!!! Gagnez-nous ce match, woohoo! Alors de deux choses l'une : ou vous marquez un autre but avant la fin, ou vous en marquez plus d'autre mais vous vous arrangez pour ne pas en prendre un parce que sinon? On est mal, les gars!!

ETA: Yes! Et de deux! Et ben voilà, c'est possible quand même lol

I promise to play translator should you come to France one day - or should you return to France in case you already visited my country lol

And you translated a bit too literally which explains why it didn't work that well, but technically you got the words right, if not their meaning in that context *g*

Yes! Make that two [goals]. Well see then, it was possible after all lol

Yes, French can be a bitch sometimes lol

I feel your SGA slash pain. BecKay is so very OTP, but ShepKay is just so damn hot! And angsty! And... hot! And, imo, there's a hell of a lot more *good* fic being written in ShepKay than any other slash pairing.

So... yeah, don't feel bad. It happens to us all. :)

I knew I could count on my flist to make me feel better!

Would you have some recs btw? I mean, since I'm apparently in the mood and everything? bottom!McKay --if there's sex I mean-- and angst/drama?

[livejournal.com profile] pegasus_gate and [livejournal.com profile] mckay_sheppard are mostly where I get my porn fic. Will definately go try to find my favorites tomorrow and let you know, but right now, it's well past my bedtime. Hopefully that'll tide you over until then. :)

Thanks for the links, and thanks in advance for future recs *g*

P.S. Off the top of my head, gaia's "Beautiful People" series is shaping up rather nicely. Lotsa angst, lotsa insecure!McKay followed up with insecure!Sheppard. Heh. I'm particularly fond of the first two or three parts, but the most recent installment is pretty interesting.

But yeah, I'll let you know some others tomorrow.

Lol The fic I mentioned in my entry? The one that made me read that pairing? Was the Beautiful People series. It's indeed a great series *g*

Ha! Well, it's a good one. Now I'll have to work extra hard to find other ones. :)

*heavy sigh* I want it said that I 'hid' my LJ from you for not even 24 hours, and I only did it because I thought you would find it stupid - geez, one little mistake and people hide Lost from you... I mean don't let go, but whatever (18 hours to download, dude!)

(OT: AAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!! LOST DOWNLOAD JUST STOPPED AND WON'T START AGAIN! *stroke*)

And re: the number of journals you have on LJ, you forgot [livejournal.com profile] immortals_n_co - but since it's just for the two of us... *giggles*

and re: football: finally!

I only did it because I thought you would find it stupid.

*gasp* This is so lame, girl! Do I ever feel worried you'll think I'm stupid when I start rambling about Star Ac' or whatnot, even though I know you hate the show and find it stupid? lol So why would you think I would. You'd better no hide anything else just because you think I'll find it stupid, missy *stern look*

(Re: OT. *gasp* IT DID THE SAME THING FOR ME BUT I DON'T CARE I'LL KEEP ON TRYING UNTIL I SUCCEED *dies* WE'LL MAKE IT HONEY, WE' LL MAKE IT)

*pulls herself together*

Eeeek how could I forget that one too? *facepalm* Sure it's like just for us, but still *g*

Man I thought we wouldn't ever win! Talk about a mess, but they did it *g*

Date: 2004-10-14 04:39 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] babycakesin.livejournal.com
but it's true - we had talked about it since I knew Terri had an LJ, and I went to Cassie Claire's LJ quite often and stuff - and you seemed lukewarm about it, so I wanted to try it first and now my download is down to 9 hours *sighs in relief* keep going, Linus, I know you can make it! *pets laptop*

what was I saying? Oh, never mind: Chypre lost and now I have to wait to download Lost - coincidence? I think not! *begs computer*

From: [identity profile] castalie.livejournal.com
I wasn't interested in it, true enough. I knew about Terri's LJ but I never thought of creating my own, but that's beside the point. Just because you didn't think I'd like it you didn't want to tell me? That's bad, because imagine I'd never checked Terri's LJ that day... maybe I wouldn't be here today *gasp*

So okay it's not credible, but still! lol

Am downloading the file again and it's working so far *crosses fingers*
