i'm not trying to wake you up

This post is partly a way of making up for not posting much fic lately.

It is also partly because it seems like I have to do that 'post snippets of every unfinished fic you have on your hard drive' meme at least once a year.

But mostly it's because I recently got a new laptop (my old one was falling apart—literally) and had to transfer all my files, and that led to me discovering a whole bunch of things I'd saved and totally forgotten about.

The ratings of these vary, but go up pretty high. And some of the ideas are kinda fucked up but you can figure that out from the pairing and avoid as you see fit—no other warnings necessary, I don't think!

( The Kills/The Dead Weather/Kate Moss/what even is this fandom. )

( Narnia RPF. )

( Skins, including RPF. (And, um, Skins RPF/Narnia RPF?) )

( Kings of Leon (and Jared Followill/Demi Lovato) )

Woah, check out this mass of tags. Crazy business.

Ha! Cool. I guess this shouldn't be weird to me seeing as I know they're in Clash of the Titans together (with Kaya too, yay!) but...it's still weird. Look how small Luke looks, Nick is a giant.

Also, this meme sounds like it might be hilarious, so I want to try it.

1) Make a list of fifteen eighteen characters first, and keep it to yourself for the moment. (That way you're not leading the questions asked to fit the characters.)

2) Ask your flist to post questions in the comments.

For example:

"4, 6, 12 & 15 are starting a band together, what is their name and what kind of music do they play? Also, who's the lead singer, and what instruments do the others play?"

3) After your flist has asked enough questions, round them up and answer them using the eighteen characters you selected beforehand, then post them.

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. ;_;

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. )

I will totally be doing more of these when I get a chance!!

( Top five threesomes. )

( Top five het ships. )

( Top five tops (and why I think they're not bottoms). )

I really think that this was my favourite Skins episode all season so far. I mean, 3x05 was awesome for the Cook/Freddie kiss, but the rest of it was just okay. Whereas this episode? I think I pretty much loved ALL OF IT.

( Spoilers for 3x08. )

Can we just talk about the Skins cast for a minute, and how adorable they all are? I feel like we never got to see much of the old cast, although that might've just been because I never tried to (watch interviews and stuff) but...idk, these guys are awesome.

I might be a bit late but I only just saw the video of the NME shoot with Kaya (Effy), Jack (Cook) and Luke (Freddie), plus bonus Lily (Naomi). WATCH IT.

THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I'VE EVER REALLY WANTED TO WRITE SKINS RPF. Luke has more personality than Freddie! (Admittedly not THAT much more, but still!!) There are pillow fights and feathers and lots and lots of touching. Jack getting all excited about the trampoline and the glitter = awesome, "We've got glitter. We've got glitter and we've got balls." Luke cosying up to Lily is so funny. And I like that Jack admits that he and Cook are actually somewhat similar.

The whole cast spent six months in a hotel together in Bristol while filming! THIS IS SOME SERIOUS RPF FODDER, YOU GUYS.

Jack: "There's some people who don't wanna like Skins, 'cause of the fact that they re-cast. Fuck 'em." AMEN. I also love what Kaya says about how Skins isn't trying to tell people what to do, it's just THERE and you can think what you like of it.
