Unforgotten

so I went to work today all unknowing

that before the day was through, I would totally have this new mpreg fic all plotted out…for MIB. J/K, with K being the pregnant one.

Tell me it wouldn’t be awesome if their baby was born with an alien characteristic or two (because of course the mpreg-ness would be of alien origin, though the baby would be mostly human), and J would be all, “Let’s name her Ororo,” and K would be all “No” and J would be all “you just gave birth to a baby mutant and now you’re trying to tell me we’re not going to call her Ororo?”

Pregnant!K would be the best thing ever, like all matter of fact and totally unfazed, while J would be freaking out or w/e. K would totally set it up so that J would go on maternity leave so that K could go to work and arrest aliens and get some peace and quiet while, er, incubating the little one.

Of course, I can’t write this anytime soon - too much on my plate! - but one of these days I just might. I’d have to re-watch all three of the movies a few times to get the characterization/voice and stuff right, but I can’t say that would be a hardship because I do love them! XD

In conclusion, I am very sorry for inflicting my brain upon all of you.

So I stopped watching Little Mosque on the Prairie for like two seasons, because no free time for TV, etc.

And now I come back to find out that Sarah and Yasir got a divorce.

This is BULLSHIT.

I mean, this is for real bullshit.

This is the closest thing I actually have to a serious OTP. They can’t do this to me.

Yasir and Sarah are too perfect and funny and lovely and beautiful to do anything but be together forever in quirky multicultural happiness.

I told my GF about this, and she’s just going “No” over and over again, and saying “That never happened.”

She says this is actually worse than her own parents getting a divorce.

Well, it is worse. My parents were awful for each other. They got divorced when I was fourteen and my exact reaction was “it’s about time.”

But this Yasir and Sarah thing is complete and utter BULLSHIT. :(

dear internet, let me tell you some things about my public-school-in-georgia sex education.

pictured above is my abstinence til marriage card, given to me in my eighth grade health class. as you can see, i did not sign it, so it is non-binding. they were “optional” but the teacher placed the basket at the front of the class and stared us down. my 13-year-old self had a very brief dilemma between 1. making a stand and not getting one or 2. getting one because it’s fucking hilarious. i am very glad i chose the latter, because as i predicted, this is now something hilarious to show everyone.

that year in health we also learned “how to spot the identifying features of a crack baby” which is literally nothing but lies. we had a system of anonymous questions, and once someone asked “how do i know if i’m a lesbian?” our teacher looked disgusted and she replied “how would i know? i’m not a lesbian!”

EDIT i forgot to mention when she gave these to us she suggested we “cut up our cards together with our husbands on our wedding day” and i remember thinking, fuck if i marry someone from my middle school

the next time i had sex ed in high school it was taught by a dude gym coach who spent the whole time talking about his daughters. the book we were learning from listed “low self-esteem” “stunted social growth” and “depression,” among others, as consequences of premarital sex. at one point, it asked us to fill in the disadvantages of having an abortion. our teacher went, “well, i’m personally against abortion, so we’re just going to skip this section,” which confused me, because it was explicitly asking for an argument against abortion.

the last time i had sex ed it was pretty good and there were free condoms and we got little bottles of lube every time we answered questions, but i don’t think that counts cause it was in an intro to women’s studies class.

GOING FOR THE GOLD

…And of course ONE person keeping that “gold” commitment is enough to not get any sexually trasmitted diseases, right?

kind of vaguely related but mostly I want to tell this story:

This one time Matron came in to give use sex ed (I went to a posh all-girl’s grammar school, we had a Matron) and started telling us about anal sex. Didn’t even touch on vaginas that whole session. The problem being I and my friends were already into slash fiction at this point so spent the whole time thinking of it as research.

So for the next Batman reboot— which, at the rate things are going, will probably be in 2014— guess who I vote to play the Joker.

YES PLEASE

So like 95% of the signups on Marvel Bang so far are for Avengers. Big surprise, right? XD There are a handful of X-Men folks too though, which is nice.

Maybe I should do a Cherik…

I used to thing 10K was a lot. Then the dysfunctional duo happened…

should I?

Yes, yes you should! :D

ok signed up. Charles/Erik represent!

Yay! :D

LOL

Photographic evidence that Marshall is fully capable being evil enough to be compared to Azazel.

(Cause I know this is a sticking point, even though i think most people who I’ve told that Lilly = Raven agree).

I love you. <333

on themes

I am not doing the writing meme that’s been going around, because about half of the questions make me go all “*blink* I would have no idea how to answer this,” but the one question about prevalent themes in my work has made me realize that there is in fact at least one theme that appears repeatedly in my fic.

If you ever wanted to know what the time travel fics, the mpreg fic and the Erik is a doberman fic have in common, it’s second chances. Often with a dash of betrayal beforehand (here’s looking at you, Replay!Erik. and other Eriks too because Cuba, but mostly Replay!Erik’s dumb ass), and with, like, first chances on the horizon (babiessss).

Idk about any other themes. I’m not great at recognizing themes, as a rule. Tropes, sure; themes, not so much (and I am not always so clear on the difference between those two things). So this was interesting for me to realize!

kageillusionz replied to your post: if you guys don’t stop

So is posting pictures of James’ beautiful behind ok? :D

…I can’t believe I forgot to add “or James McAvoy and his ass” to that list, since that’s what started all this (for me) to begin with. XD

if you guys don’t stop

Posting pictures of James McAvoy and his thighs, or James McAvoy and his face, or for god’s sake James McAvoy and his hands, I am going to have to start reblogging all that shit and saying how pretty he is. This is not normally behavior I indulge in BUT MY ENDURANCE HAS ITS LIMITS OKAY. GODDAMN.

RBB fic is at 3223 words so far

I didn’t finish it as I’d originally hoped to over the weekend, as I had a difficult time settling down to it, but I’m really happy with what I did manage to get. :D

oh, and also

Movies I came away from the pre-movie trailers wanting to see:

Brave - though I already knew that
Snow White and the Huntsman - news to me, I had no interest in it before
The Amazing Spider-Man - also news to me, I was really turned off by the original trailers I saw months ago

I have a feeling I’m going to go to more movies than usual this year. Usually I go to like 3-4 movies total. So far this year I have been to see The Hunger Games and MIB3.

MIB3 is FANTASTIC

Funny, random, cracky and moving - just what it needed to be and perfect in every way. I adored every second. Oh yes. <33333

going to see MIB3 tonight

It’s either going to be very, very good or very, very bad.

I just cannot resist a time travel narrative, ever. Ever ever ever. Ever.
