i'm not trying to wake you up

UM. SKINS.

CAN WE TALK ABOUT SKINS, PLEASE.

( WHAT THE FUCK, SKINS? )

You guys, my brain feels like it's been scrambled. Sometimes I just love Skins and HATE IT SO MUCH AT THE SAME TIME. ;_;

Why does Skins do this to me? It's pretty much always good, often great, and then every now and then an episode comes along that just makes me feel like I'm on a rollercoaster and the whole thing is sort of terrifying and amazing and horrible and wonderful, and at the end I just feel like a wreck. This episode reminded me a lot of Effy's episode last season, 'cause that was definitely one that made me feel that way.

I can't believe I'm having these feelings about Freddie's episode. I even felt for him tonight, I really did. And wasn't as sickened by him and Effy as I expected, mostly because she wasn't happy I suppose.

Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god. First time posting fic since AUGUST. Oddly enough, the last fic I posted was on the 17th too. And I started this almost exactly a year ago. WEIRD STUFF. This was really strange to write because I'm not like Cook at all, and he's not a very nice guy, but somehow writing in his mindset was FUN.

Title: to fuck and fight, part 1/2
Author: likecharity
Pairing: Cook/Freddie, Cook/everyone else ever
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Underage sex, violence, drug use, STDs, misogyny, occasional grossness in general...it's Cook-centric, what can I say?
Summary: A sexuality-based character study. Cook's sexual history, and what happens when it ends up including Freddie. Making people moan and writhe is kind of the only thing he knows how to do.
A/N: It's very long!! It's the first time I've had to split a fic in two in order to post it. The timeline starts pre-show and ends just before season 4.

( James Cook loses his virginity at the ripe young age of twelve. This is a fact that shocks most people, and one of which he is very proud. )

Title: avalanche
Author: likecharity
Pairing: Cook/Freddie/Effy
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Threesome, both het and slash, drug use
Summary: He's prepared to fucking beat Cook black and blue if that's what it takes. He knows the other boy's stronger but he also knows he's the one who wants Effy the most, and he'll give it the best he's got. If he has to.
A/N: Because a threesome is the best solution to a love triangle. :D Set a little while after 3x05.

( He only turns up 'cause they're all so persistent, going on about how he needs to take his mind off things and just go out and have a good time. )

Okaaay so I just finished watching 3x02 of Skins.
