i'm not trying to wake you up

HELLO.

This is basically a sorry-for-disappearing post. :/ I've really just been so busy with studying and talking to my amazing new boyfriend (♥). BUT I will devote this weekend to getting SOME kind of fic-writing done, because srsly I'm suffering withdrawals or something, it feels like SO long since I've written anything.

While I've been gone, I've sort of been dipping my toes into a couple of new fandoms. But reluctantly, because they're kinda embarrassing. Right, well, you know how I love Drake & Josh? I think the natural progression for Drake & Josh viewers is for them to end up watching iCarly. Which...has happened to me. And somehow I'm kind of hooked on it now. And I really want to write some Carly/Sam, because Sam is a total dyke, okay.

Strangely, the other fandom is, well, Disney, I guess. I've had a sort of vague interest in the Jonas Brothers and Miley Cyrus and everybody just from ONTD and some people on my flist, but I always kind of stood back from it and didn't get involved. I was interested though, like, enough to find Miley incredibly irritating, Nick really hot, and the idea of Jonascest very appealing.

So anyway I was bored the other night and ended up skimming a few communities, and now I ship Joe/Nick (this video pretty much convinced me) and possibly Miley/Selena, and I feel so ashamed because I never thought this would happen. :( I remember when I first saw an advert for the Jonas Brothers' album or whatever and I was all "QUIT TRYING TO BE HANSON!" and now, idk, they've sucked me in. I CAN'T HELP IT.

Yeah. So I might end up writing some of that, but maybe not, because I'm not really a FAN and I doubt I know enough about them all, etc etc. But we'll see. Knowing me, I'll attempt to finish off one of the Narnia fics I've got half-written, and then end up getting sidetracked writing a Nick/Miley/Selena threesome or something. *sigh*

ANYWAY, ENOUGH ABOUT MY REGRESSION INTO CHILDHOOD.

( I finally caught up on Heroes. Sort of. Spoilers up to 3x03. )

Title: (you come in) burned
Author: likecharity
Pairing: Nathan/Peter
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Incest, underage sex (Peter is sixteen)
Summary: He's let it in, now. He's opened the box, he's started the fire. And no matter what he does, he knows he's never going to be able to shut it out again. Nathan and Peter, and their beginning.
A/N: Title from The Dandy Warhols. I must have worked on this for weeks. Partly because it is so long, and partly because it drove me insane. I'm so glad it's finally finished. This is my how-things-got-started fic for the Petrellis, and I dedicate it to eryslash, kimmy_dreamer and fiorediloto, for not letting me give up. ♥

( It's Christmas Eve, and Peter stands in Nathan's doorway with his hands shaking. )

I AM WRITING PETRELLICEST AND IT HAS NOT BEEN DELETED IN A FIT OF ANGST YET. AND IT'S BEEN A FEW HOURS. THAT'S GOT TO BE A GOOD SIGN.

*clings to fic and crosses fingers*

It will get finished, it will get finished, it will get finished...

I also have an Italian-related question! My book says that 'e Lei?' means 'and you?'...like if someone asked 'how are you?' and you wanted to say 'I'm good, and you?'. But that's formal, right? What's the non-formal 'you' in that context? It doesn't say. :( Help me, Italians! XD

...I probably shouldn't be tackling fic-writing and Italian-learning at the same sort of time.

PERSONAL CANON MEME RESULTS.

OH MY GOD YOU GUYS HEROES IS THE BEST THING EVER, WHY DID I NOT START WATCHING IT SOONER?

I think the answer to that question is 'because I'm lazy'. I have told my Heroes-watching friends that I should probably try watching it, several times, but it took me until yesterday to actually get a move on and start downloading some episodes.

Actually, it was because I had a dream the other night where I was in Rome with eryslash (haha!) and we were in this pink-painted room with a shower in it, randomly, and she told me I really, really had to start watching Heroes because she knew I would like it, and that I would really love Petrellicest, and she said I had to go home right away and find some download links. XD

Anyway, OMG.

I'm only five episodes in, but I have basically been downloading/watching since last night, it's just that my connection sucks and the downloading is going FAR TOO SLOWLY. And I am so impatient.

This show is like...the most awesome show I have seen in a very long time. I seriously kept getting shivers whilst watching the first two episodes, especially all the bits with Isaac and his paintings and how they matched up to ~the future~, I don't know why it was those bits that got me particularly, it was just so spooky and awesome.

And Nathan and Peter are totally my favourites although I really hope Nathan stops being such an ass sometime soon. :/ But Peter and his hair and the way he's always pushing it out of his eyes, and his crooked bottom lip and his mouth in general, guh. He actually really looks like a slightly more attractive version of my English Lit teacher, which is cool.

And I am on board with the Petrellicest already, Ery, because? "It's biological. I can't help it. We're connected." ♥ ♥ SQUEE. And they touch all the time. There is just so much touching.

The problem is, I am like the most squeamish person in the entire universe, and there were some scenes that I was just not prepared for. I managed to not watch the hand-in-the-garbage-disposal scene, because I saw that coming, but there were a bunch of other bits that I just nearly threw up at. (AUTOPSY SCENE OMFG.) I've gotten quite good at shrieking and covering the screen though, so I'll cope. IT'S WORTH IT.

Aaaaanyway, the really frustrating thing is that I can't even venture into the fandom and explore yet, because I'm too scared of spoilers. I mean, I'm only five episodes in. BUT IT'S SO TEMPTING. I want Petrellicest fic. :( I don't want to have to wait until I've seen alllll the episodes, especially because, at the rate they're downloading, it will take me months.

*sigh* YAY NEW FANDOM.

In other news, I have been chewing gum pretty much constantly all day. When I stop, I start biting at the skin around my nails. I may be developing a bit of an oral fixation. :/
