My dearest flist...

How have you been? What's up? Look at all those stories that have been posted that I have to try to track down now. Pfft. Maybe I shall be lazy and just read the ones rec'd to me. I did notice some kerfuffle, the effects of which are only the vaguest ripple in my neck of the LJ pond at the moment. I'm sure I shall feel them more later. I'm too low energy today to investigate, though I have been downing the B vitamins like you wouldn't believe.

I volunteered to rec for a month on crack_van, though they haven't responded yet, I'm still antsy.

Also, do I have money to go the X-Files movie (and CKR)? Hmmm, probably not.

I'm taking great comfort in the fact that Lincoln didn't really achieve what he wanted until later in life; it makes me feel like much less of a loser dork. And I have this urge to reread all of catlover's "Greg Sanders: Private Dick" AU, which would take FOREVER but is still fun. (And oh, someone needs to volunteer to update the CSI recs on crack_van, they are *old* and haven't been updated in forever).

Blah.

Is that the end? Maybe it's the end bothering you, I feel a little...abruptly cut off. I don't know if I want more or what.

Though when I have problems with an ending, I've learned it generally means that I didn't properly resolve something earlier in the story and I have to fix that to end it right.

But I don't if that's it, or if I'm just greedy for more. (This is possible, I am greedy).

You know what was awesome about S.2, is that Gus sort of came into his own, and starting snapping back at Shawn, and Shawn let him. No wonder he became Fearless Guster in S.3, all that confidence.

That just occurred me just now, so I'm assuming that's my subconscious telling me something about this story. I wish I knew what.

(I reread stripper thing: I noticed that Shawn knows he wants Lassiter really, really badly. He knows he has strange protective feelings about Lassiter, but he doesn't get that that's love. But yeah, Gus would, since Gus has been in love before (and married) and Shawn doesn't even get past first dates. Also Shawn mentions that Gus had a talk a with him, so hey, it's canon).

Eh, I can't think these days...opening a new restaurant and things are crazy.

I didn't resolve things too well because I didn't know where I was taking things because I wrote it in your internt absence and I was kind of waiting to see whether this was even possible in your canon, so it was just scribbled in, like, twenty minutes.

Well, more like 25 because there was a lot of research for that throwaway bird case joke.

I want to flesh it out a bit more and maybe have Gus lose his confidence a little toward the end and run away or something like that, because you know that he would still scream like a girly man if he thought Lassi would kill him.

I want to leave Lassi speechless at the end still. I don't want him revealing ANYTHING to Gus and I want him to be too shocked to even respond coherently.

Heee! I love it when research takes up more time than the writing, especially when the research is for some throwaway thing. Heeee!


No actually, this would put a whole new spin on the stripper story, because we don't get Lassi's pov, other than his horniness, we can only guess what he's thinking, but if we know that Gus talked to him...even if he doesn't believe Gus, and yes, he'd be suspicious, he'd still wonder...

hmmm
