echoing_dream[Error: unknown template qotd] Oh! When to choose.. Hmm. Well, I’ve fallen back in love with the Sharpe books, so early 19th Century would be fun, but only if I was a guy, and Genderswap doesn’t seem like it’s included in this Time Machine thingy. Maybe I can go back to 300AD and meet Arthur and learn all about proper paganism and stuff? That would be cool, and you got some pretty high powered Priestesses back then, like Nimue. I could do that. But really, I’d just go back to being the age I am now but 23 years ago, because Queen at Wembley? I’d do most anything to see that. Doesn’t really count as history though, does it? I don’t think I’m doing this right…
Today, Cait is made of fail. Exams did not go well, so it looks like I’m gonna have to take a year out whether I want to or not. *headdesk*
My ‘To Do’ list, that was created to make things simpler, keeps spawning new tasks for me, and actually creates more stress than what it solves. This is why I am not a list person, I can’t even do those right!
So I have Questions:
1. How do you choose titles for fics? I got forcibly trained out of having a title before writing the story a couple of years ago, but now I’m choosing titles after I’ve written and it stresses me.
2. Can anyone rec me Jack/Ianto fic that’s either page-meltingly hot or features outdoors!Ianto (or at least where Ianto’s not a total girl)? Please *puppy eyes you*.
Also, this is the cutest college!AU ever! All the characters are so colourful and life-like and the whole thing is just sweet enough to give you warm fuzzies without rotting your teeth. Really, it’s amazing. I’d have loved to see Chris with Steve, but the snippets of Chris/Sandy are all kinds of delicious…
Oooh! And I’ve found someone to go watch Watchmen with me. She didn’t believe me when I told her she’d have to be in charge of me, I may have to tone down the squee… *excited wibble*
And have a
because… just because I can. ♥
