(Best of luck! I'm sort of...just hoping my Meg voice improves, seeing as I'm only really writing her for the Blackout Interlude. And I'm really hoping my Nick Fury voice improves, since he's going to be around for the entire OFU...although, technically, I can just get Karen to write him...hm.)

Eh, the calmer waters are generally more fun. Also, it probably helps that I tend to ship practically everything as long as it doesn't break my brain, and have even been known to both ship people and love them as just really close friends (cases in point: Spock and Kirk, Dean and Cas, a bunch more Star Trek characters, and we'll stop there.)

But see, the calmer waters tend to have a lot more jokes than the rapids. So they're more fun and less stressful.

You know me too well... by Pretzel on 2013-04-22 10:57:00 UTC Reply

....

Aaaah! :D by DawnFire on 2013-04-22 11:34:00 UTC Reply

Actually, the funny thing is, I barely know you at all yet (which is definitely a pity!) However, now I will love you forever :)

Absolutely AMAZING gif (how do you put them in? Wait, I don't even have gifs, never mind). Is it just me, or is Dean (or I suppose I should be calling him Jensen here) smiling?

...and I don't think I'm ever going to get over Misha's face here, because...just because. No explanation necessary XD

So...hi! I'm DawnFire. You like Supernatural, I see...?

(Why have we never had a proper conversation and I only really know you from your writing?? This is ridiculous.)

Hehehe by Pretzel on 2013-04-22 11:39:00 UTC Reply

Okay, so, a gif's like a normal image-- --no changing stuff. And yes, Jensen definitely breaks right there.

I do indeed like Supernatural, and write fic for it as well. I just finished a gen 30Kish alt!Purgatory fic (Insert Shameless self-plug here) and am active mostly over on Tumblr.

Well, cool, now I know how to insert an image :) by DawnFire on 2013-04-22 11:53:00 UTC Reply

Heh. I don't blame him.

Ooh, fun! I will check out the self-plug (and laugh hysterically if I've already read it).

Hm...not sure if I've seen it before or not. I don't *think* I have, but it's always possible...

As for me, I...have actually never written fic for Supernatural up until the Blackout Interlude. I've read a lot, though, and seen every episode, so...well, what I'm writing doesn't look too OOC to me, so I guess I must have picked some things up. Meg is really hard to describe, though. I mean, her face does things, and so does her voice, and I can write dialogue for her (I think) but I can never seem to describe her properly. She's probably doing it on purpose, isn't she...

Ooh, Tumblr. Tumblr's fun. I hang out there a lot, even if my own Tumblr isn't so active besides the occasional reblog.

(Why am I entering so many new fandoms at the same time? Well, I say 'so many'. Technically, it's the PPC, Supernatural, and the Avengers. I may be insane...)

Awesomesauce by Pretzel on 2013-04-22 11:57:00 UTC Reply

Hey, I'm always up for teaching basic HTML stuff.

(Yes, characters can be hard to pin down sometimes; Sam still give me fits occasionally)

Tumblr is definitely fun. Well, as long as you stay out of the fandom wank and ship wars.

((You can never have too many fandoms! NEVER!))

I suppose that's my cue to ask for more HTML help... by DawnFire on 2013-04-22 12:06:00 UTC Reply

...but I can't actually think of anything right now.

(Try reading a lot of fanfic, I think it helps. Well, depending on how good the characterization is, of course. I think I'd be having better luck with Meg if she showed up more on the show, or if I read more fic with her in it...oh well.)

I have been fortunate enough not to really run into those, so I'm having fun :)

((Agreed.))

~DF

Eh, when you think of it... by Pretzel on 2013-04-22 12:08:00 UTC Reply

...feel free to ask.

(I do read quite a bit of fanfic, and roleplay as well; I'm slowly but surely working on my Sam voice.)

Same here; I usually tend to fall into the calmer waters of a fandom rather than the rapids that exist.

Shiny. by Pretzel on 2013-04-22 12:19:00 UTC Reply

(Good luck with that!)

Oh, I'm right there with you on the shipping thing. I really only have a few outright notps, but other than that, I'm pretty chill.

I love the calmer waters, and the calmer waters love me.

Shiny? Where? by DawnFire on 2013-04-22 17:46:00 UTC Reply

(Thanks!)

Ooh, 'notps'. I like that :) May use it.

I'm seriously willing to ship people with almost anyone. Even if the ships overlap. I do seem to be feeling a little more strongly about Destiel recently, though, if my reactions to the Megstiel romance in the last episode were any indication. Not that I don't like Meg, but...I don't know, it felt strange. Then again, Destiel is pretty similar to K/S (in TOS, that is) in terms of what's actually in the canon...

Well done, most bendy of bread-based snack foods. Now, take some well deserved time to celebrate! Use that stat boost well.

I'll definitely be celebrating soon.
