S7 Buffy

Buffy S7:
[spoilers for Buffy through "Bring on the Night" and for Angel S4]
( a stirring tale of self-control )

Spoilers past this point in canon, for either show, will earn you a beating and possibly a defriending.

what I really mean by "OTP"

Am horrible person. Or perhaps just horrible challenge-responder type person.

First there was the attempt to write Wesley/Lilah that totally turned into Fred/Oz (still unfinished, by the way.)

And now I'm writing this backup fic for a ficathon (not the McKay one) and the request is totally for a certain het pairing involving Daniel and a female person who isn't Sam. And it's totally turned into a certain slash pairing that shall only be known as "Jack/Daniel."

*headdesk*

Also, I have this problem with my OTPs. I know, I don't have OTPs. I have lots of true pairings. But the thing is, they're all true. You know what I mean? If I'm writing a fic with Willow and Giles in it, regardless of what pairings it is, there's going to be feelings there. Willow has a crush on Giles. It's part of my unchangeable canon. Of course, W/T and W/O are also part of my unchangeable canon.

And I can't write Daniel/Sam where Daniel isn't also in love with Jack, and since I can't avoid the evil Canon Het, Sam's usually in love with Jack too.

And I bet if I tried to write Jack/Daniel, I'd have the same problem.

Clearly, I will never, ever be capable of writing genfic, and soon all my fic will turn into space operas more confusing than certain seasons of Angel.

Or possibly threesomes.

With that, GIP, and I think I'm going to sleep for a couple of hours before church. *headdesk*

I'm a bad influence on myself.

But no, wait, first: a list of pairings that will always be present in any fic of any length I write about the characters. Or, in other words, the loves that are part of my own personal canon:
( cut because, predictably, it's a long list )

Looking for the McKay Ficathon Masterlist? It's here.

day of glee

Glee! Church was nice and shiny and we sang pretty music, and then I got taken out for lunch yay, and people seem to like the McFord, and my flist is explodddding with new people, and I went to the library and got shiny, shiny new books that I've read ten thousand times because I felt the urge to read some Andrew Greeley RIGHT NOW. Mmm, Blackie.

I'm going to unplug the phone and leave the internet alone for awhile and just lie in bed and read literature for young adults until I fall asleep.

Then tomorrow, the horrific daily grind begins again.

Fic is due tomorrow! The masterlist is still here. Let me know if you've finished your fic!
