It might be here.

So, I'm on Pottermore.  Midnightfeather179, if you're interested.  So far it's very glitchy, laggy, and likely to spontaneously stop working.  But it's also completely awesome when it is working.  Even if it did sort me into Gryffindor, which makes NO sense.

Title: The Thing Adored, Desires
Author: itmightbehere/deadwoodmt
Pairing:Dean/Castiel
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 2,006
Warnings: One minor swear word and some off-screen angel-on-demon violence.
Notes: Done for -wondersmith's Destiel Word Prompt Contest.  My word was "human."  This is a Dean/Cas AU retelling of "The Story of Pygmalion and the Statue" from Ovid's Metamorphoses.  I'm not really a writer, but I'd like to improve.  If you have any crit, please tell me.
Summary: Castiel is a loyal soldier, but millennia of constant battle leaves him feeling stressed.  To combat this, he takes up a hobby, but falls in love with his own creation.

 

Pleas'd with his idol, he commends, admires,
Adores; and last, the thing ador'd, desires.

Ovid - Metamorphoses, trans. Sir Samuel Garth et al

( Castiel had been a warrior in the armies of God since his own creation. )

So I've decided that I ship Shawn/Lassiter like burning, which is weird as I didn't go into the show expecting to ship anyone and I love the chemistry between Shawn and Juliet.  BUT NO.  I see the sniping and the inherent loneliness in both men and OF COURSE I have to ship them.

What is up with weird pairings I wasn't expecting lately?  First it was Hardison/Parker, now this?

I had a great birthday yesterday, and now schools' been canceled due to snow! :D

Also, Leverage is such a great show!  Why wasn't I watching it before?  I mean, it's not perfect.  It's heavy handed and unlikely, but I love the characters so much!  I ship Sophie/Eliot and Hardison/Parker SO HARD.

I am excited!  I want to participate again this year, if I can.  I was a beta last year in the Deancasbigbang and the paperlegends big bang, and both fics were completely amazing, and I had a lot of fun (and hopefully helped some!)

:D

I hope this is a better year for everyone.  I don't know about you guys (lol, I just almost typed use guyz), but it sucked for me.  2011 is going to be amazing, though, I just know.

8 more days until my birthday!

Is Hawaii Five-O sponsored by the Hawaii tourism foundation?  Because I think they spend more time on beautiful landscape shots than they do storylines sometimes.  Yes, it's pretty.  I get it.  Can we not cut to people swimming every five seconds?
