Hide your shock, guys.

So I have signed up for more things. Yes, I know. I know. But only one of them is a big bang!
*sigh*
Thing #1!

{Take the 100 Things challenge!}
This is a challenge where you pick a topic and natter on about it for 100 entries, no deadlines, no word count. It's well timed, because I received the Mystery Classics 100 Movie Pack for my birthday and had planned to watch and review my way through them all anyway. Serendipity! (even though there's a fair number of Nigel Bruce-playing-Watson Sherlock Holmes in the mix, so expect some whining from me when I get there.)
Thing #2
This is not my fault.
morganoconner and I were talking about this over twitter and since she's dived headfirst into Teen Wolf she was going back and forth on whether to write werewolf!Clint, so because I'm the worst sort of life ruiner I told her that if she signed up I would write angel!Clint. And she took me up on it!
So I suppose it is my fault. But guys, seriously, the min word count is 5K. 5K! Isn't that adorable?

On the subject of things I've signed up for in the past, I posted my
dc_dystopia fic Spiral on Wednesday! *throws confetti* Now I can dive into everyone else without psyching myself out! Expect a gushing rec post shortly.
And people seem to like it, which is a big relief. I've been enjoying seeing the different ways people are interpreting the ending, which is purposefully ambiguous - obviously I know what I intend that last line to mean, but that's really not as important as what gets taken away from it, you know?
(Although because more than one person's asked, I can't write a coda to make the ending happy. It's dystopia. There is no happy.)

Hey, you know how in Iron Man 2 Coulson loses track of Tony, and when Tony asks him what was up with that he says, "I was doing stuff"? "Stuff" should actually translate to "Clint on your leather couch." Especially if Nat calls them after that scene where Tony surprises her at the office all, "Both of you. FOCUS. I expect better from you. Well, from one of you."
Someone should write that.
*sigh*

Date: 2012-07-28 12:59 am (UTC)I'm thinking maybe Tony does something stupid with the space-time continuum and he and, say, Nat end up dealing with...oh crap, I have just had the awesomest idea ever. Like, literally as I'm typing. I know when I'm going to set it and everything. So sorry, Harry, you'll have to wait till next crossover...

Date: 2012-07-28 01:07 am (UTC)Isn't it awesome when the story falls in your lap like that? I have to figure out how to stop Clint from starting Ragnorak (indirectly anyway, he's hiding in Asgard from Atropos.)

Date: 2012-07-28 01:12 am (UTC)It's only a plotbunny, so I still have to do all the hard stuff, but I don't care. :)
I love the idea of Clint as an angel, especially because he uses ranged weapons. The angels are usually all about the blades, so one with a bow is an awesome idea.

Date: 2012-07-28 02:08 am (UTC)ETA: Actually, I meant to comment about dystopia. DAMN SIDETRACKING. Ambiguous ending is awesome. I know what I think about it, and I don't even want to ask what you intended :P
