Because I am insane...

I have signed up for the bronze challenge at paliphrase  where you write in for the same prompt in ten different fandoms.  *eep*  I chose the prompt "pensive" because I can write deep, thinky stories... but ten fandoms?  What was I thinking?!?!?

He's hot as hell. I'm more of a Jared Padalecki fan, though. And the two of them have completely converted me to liking RPS.

I watched... the first few episodes. And then they changed the stupid law and now I'm not downloading stuff anymore 'cause of that law and, uhm. So I haven't actually watched any of season two (or even the end of season one) and Alec only appears in S2, doesn't he? *tilts head*

He's in one episode of S1. But not as Alec. As one of the X-5s that escaped. he was introduced as Alec in S2.

I'm glad you've seen the beginning of the series since the Logan/Jack story I'm writing is set during the first episode- so you'll know enough to be able to read it.

Ah, but I'm good at reading fanfiction at all times. I mean. I've been reading Lindsey McDonald fanfiction the last few days without ever having watched a single episode of Angel. Looked up what I need to understand on wikipedia and the rest came together after the first few stories *bounces*
.. Only works when one's not spoiler-phobic, though. Which I'm definitely not.
Hell. I only started watching NCIS because I like Tony in fanfiction. There's fandoms I'm in where I haven't ever seen a single episode of the actual show. It works out, somehow *shrugs*

I'm definitely looking forward to reading your Logan/Jack story *beams*

I'm not sure I could read fanfic without having watched the show at all. Although, I have to admit, I like "House" fanfic better than the show, but I have seen a bunch of episodes.

I can and I have and I will - and I like it. It does take a character to catch my eye, but once that's done? It's easy. Like, I started reading Lindsey fiction 'cause I like Chris Kane so much and I talked to unfeathered and she told me a few of the pictures I'd made icons from where actually from the show, Angel, and that sort of triggered it. And I started reading NCIS fiction 'cause one girl, luthien82 asked for Tony icons - I'd never heard of Tony at that point - and I looked him up and thought he was pretty and ended up reading fiction and that convinced me to watch the show. I really do that a lot. I think it's mainly because, hell. I can't just turn on the TV and watch a show and decide if I like it or not. I have to go out of my way to be able to watch any show at all (since I refuse to watch German TV, but it's not my fault that it's just so ridiculously bad, is it?), so it's much easier to read fanfiction first *waves hand around vaguely* If that makes sense?

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

it makes perfect sense to me! :) Although if the first few fics you read were ooc that might lead to problems

[chatona.livejournal.com]

well, yeah. but usually, fiction that is ooc tends to be of rather... poor quality. so it's not too hard to avoid those.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

true.

Hey- would you be up for taking a look at my logan/jack if I emailed it to you?

[chatona.livejournal.com]

Wheee, of course! As long as you don't expect in-depth comments or an actual beta. But an overlook and squee and an overall comment? I'm so there :D Have my e-mail or want it again?

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

a general overlook is all I need. It's winging its way to you now. thanks!
