my right hand is not actually working right now

J is working overtime, which means I'm left to finish our basement by myself - in time for the new rug to be installed this friday. So far (just this past weekend) I've had to rip up the old rug, scrape the carpet pad off underneath where it was glued to the concrete in places, pry out the old disgusting carpet-covered baseboards, pry up the old carpet tacks, pry out the staples on the baseboard running up the stairs, hammer down all the staples that I couldn't pry up - essentially, I've realized that I'm old, and that my back hurts and my shoulders hurt and my hands can't properly open so much as a water bottle right now; I think the base of my thumb on my right hand is swollen. AND ON THE AGENDA TONIGHT: scrubbing the floor with bleach to get what padding I couldn't get up off the concrete and spackling and priming the walls. Ugh. Kill me.

Now, I'm currently contemplating who to focus my next Supersaturation 'verse fic on. I know I have to fix Joe and Bob, and I'm planning on giving some of the guys mini-clones (they're so cute!), but I need to have a newish character to focus on. I was thinking maybe Mike Kennerty? Or possibly Marshall. Is there anyone that I've touched on briefly that you guys want explored more?

ALSO: If I was, say, to write more of William's House of Orphans, what/who would you guys want written about?

i'd actually want to know more of Ivarrson...it's weird, but i want to see her mess with more relationships or something...

[identity profile] skoosiepants.livejournal.com 2009-01-13 05:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Ivarrson! Good idea, but that'll be tough, since I don't think I ever got a real handle on her character. Mmmmm, might be a good challenge for me!

Clearly the story needs some Frank and Gerard... hey, they're not even there! They ought to be.

But what I really really want more than anything is Brendon and Spencer. Young Orphan Awkward Crushes and stuff. It would be precious. Also, Siska. He was pretty much heartbreaking. It should have been so funny but it wasn't. Poor guy. I also loved Ryan a whole lot, and Jon, and Pete... But mostly Brendon. And Spencer.

And Supersaturation. I wanna say write more Panic In Space, but I suppose that isn't fair, since they've gotten a lot of focus. But they're awesome, so. More Bob would be awesome, and I, personally, wanna know more about Mikey-- you should bring him back from the dead! Or or or have Rockstar Mikey fall through the mirror into Supersaturation!verse! Except that would mean Rockstar Gerard doesn't have Mikey, oh man. But Mikey, I think Mikey needs some focus, since he's dead, and that isn't fair.

Also, I reread the one with The Cab the other day, since I read it before I really knew who they were, and it is even more precious when I knew what was going on.

I kind of like the idea that someone threw out there about Victoria's first season in London and all the shenanigans the boys will get up to! There could be much awkwardness and misunderstandings and also Gerard and Butcher and Siska :)

Ugh, you have no idea how hard I've been trying to incorportate Mikey into the Supersaturation 'verse - I keep coming back around to, like, making him ascended or something, but I always dismiss it because it seems to me that it'd cheapen what his death actually meant to Gerard, you know? Like, it's something that profoundly changed his life. I need something that'll tie Mikey into the story more without actually bringing him into the story, if that makes sense. It's so hard!

I want more about Spencer and Brendon!

(Which surprises nobody, I'm sure. I ALWAYS want more about Spencer and Brendon.)


...I was saying that about the House of Orphans, but, you know. I'm not picky.

[identity profile] skoosiepants.livejournal.com 2009-01-13 06:03 pm (UTC)(link)
There is never anything bad about more Spencer and Brendon :)

Oh, William's House of Orphans! I would love to read more about Adam and Butcher. That storyline is so fascinating to me, because it's really kind of darker (maybe sadder is the word I want, I'm not sure) than what I expected, and so it stood out and struck me, in a really good way.

Also Spencer and Brendon.

[identity profile] skoosiepants.livejournal.com 2009-01-13 06:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Adam and Butcher! That's going to be so awkward for a while, I think it'd be fun to explore that more :)

See, if I was in your place, I'd be coming up with a motivational tool right about now. Something along the lines of "If I don't kill myself or anyone around me before this project from hell is done, I get to buy/do X." It doesn't have to be big or expensive, just be the light at the end of your tunnel, you know?

[identity profile] skoosiepants.livejournal.com 2009-01-13 06:04 pm (UTC)(link)
ugh, unfortunately my motivational tool is that if I get it done I'll have a beautiful new basement by saturday!

[identity profile] redandglenda.livejournal.com 2009-01-12 07:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Oooh! Bob and Greta! Perhaps adopting one of the orphans/having a baby of their own. Or even just Bob interacting with some of the younger kids. It's just Bob with kids. :D

[identity profile] skoosiepants.livejournal.com 2009-01-13 06:05 pm (UTC)(link)
oh, you're right, I totally have to throw Bob in there - the Cab babies would love him, and so would Brendon :)

SISKA! BUTCHER! \o/ and all the little alexes! and brendooooon! <3<3<3

also, hi! I totally friended you couple of days ago! just thought to let you know, and say 'hi'!

[identity profile] skoosiepants.livejournal.com 2009-01-13 06:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Hi new friend! It's awesome to meet you :)

Butcher and Siska, okay, I think I can work them in! There should be much awkwardness and sly glances!

[identity profile] neviditelny.livejournal.com 2009-01-12 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
You mention Supersaturation and I feel a compulsive need to go and reread the whole thing. It's a compulsion.

That being said, I'd love to know what exactly happened to Mikey. You've mentioned him in regards to Gerard so much, I just want to know more.

ORPHANS.

Umm.. Obviously, Butcher and Sisky. And Mike the Stable Boy and how Ryan is Definitely Not Looking At Him.

[identity profile] skoosiepants.livejournal.com 2009-01-13 06:08 pm (UTC)(link)
*laughs* everyone always wants to know more about Mikey! I'm going to really, really try to incorporate his story into this some how *nods*

And Mike the Stable Boy and how Ryan is Definitely Not Looking At Him. that scene was actually my absolute favorite, I don't know why!

William's house of orphans? Anyone?

I wanna know more about Spencer and Brendon..OOrr Sisky and Butcher....

Maybe you should take a day off from fixing up the house..a little chillin' out times

[identity profile] skoosiepants.livejournal.com 2009-01-13 06:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Siska and Butcher as so adorable, I DO want to write more about them. And of course I'm always willing to write Brendon/Spencer :)

Unfortunately I can't take a night off - I've got to get it all done by 845 Friday morning. It sucks!

More orphans, awesome!
More Spencer and Brendon, please? (My OTP is showing - I'm actually fairly convinced that this OTP is at least partly your fault, considering Supersaturation was the first bandom story I've ever read - I didn't even know Panic then. *g*)

Actually, more about all of them would be great, but yes - Spencer and Brendon.

[identity profile] skoosiepants.livejournal.com 2009-01-13 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
I need no convincing to write more Brendon/Spencer!!

I would be very curious about Captain Ballato! And Gerard/Frank and Gabe/William, of course. :)

In William's house of orphans, I was most intrigued by Jon Walker, cheeky little bugger, as well as Pete and his Patrick.

[identity profile] skoosiepants.livejournal.com 2009-01-13 06:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Ooooo, Captain Ballato! Hmmm, I could work with her, I think.

Jon Walker! I want to write Victoria's season, now, with Jon Walker being uncharacteristically over-protective! Or something.

I SAY YES TO ANY AND ALL MEMBERS OF AAR, HOLY CRAP.

[identity profile] skoosiepants.livejournal.com 2009-01-13 06:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I think AAR will work neatly into my torture Joe off-world idea - it's always Kennerty's team's fault!

If I was, say, to write more of William's House of Orphans, what/who would you guys want written about?

Spencer! Or possibly Victoria! Or Brendon! Or the Cabbabies!

OK, I just want more in that 'verse, your call.

William's House of Orphans in the city! For...something! Victoria's Season! They have to bring everyone along and there is havoc in the city! Brendon and Spencer! Ryan and Mike! Butcher and Siska, er, Adam! Gerard because he lives in the city anyway! Maybe Patrick! Stuff!
...wow I have no idea where that came from, as I had no idea what I was going to say when I started this comment. So. Yeah.
Any kind of additional ridiculous quasi-Victorian shenanigans would be incredibly cool.

Can I just mention how excited I am that you're re-opening Supersaturation? Because I am, I really, really, really am!
I second [livejournal.com profile] pearsdream--I want more of Maja, or maybe of VickyT. Or of Gabe's team in its entirety. (I believe in options)

[identity profile] skoosiepants.livejournal.com 2009-01-13 06:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Vicky-T! I can probably deliver her. I'm not sure about Maja, I have to figure out her voice....

[identity profile] catamacat.livejournal.com 2009-01-13 12:36 am (UTC)(link)
Oh no! I hate it when my hands get messed up. Try gently stretching your fingers by pressing them back away from you palm at slightly different angles, and then toward you palm. The key is gentle, repetitive motions; you're increasins range of movement in the muscle rather than trying to pop the joints. I also like to work the muscle at the base of my thumb to increase bloodflow and flexibility when I've really messed them up. These are all things I've learned from jugglers and the other art majors at my school, and they really do help.

If you wrote more William's house of orphans I would want to hear about Vicky-T's introduction to society. William spares no expense! The Cab hides behind the curtains and stays up past their bedtime to watch! Gerard cameos!

[identity profile] skoosiepants.livejournal.com 2009-01-13 06:14 pm (UTC)(link)
oooo, thank you! maybe I can rope J into helping me :)

Definitely more Siska/Butcher! ANd Brendon/Spencer! And more William, I love William here. <333

:D

William is my favorite! He's so harrassed but he loves them all soooooo much!

Am I the only one voting for the Spencer & Ryan backstory? I think I might be. Can I vote more than once?

I'm also curious as to what happened to Mikey in the supersaturation verse, I have to say. Though I would also vote for more Johnson.

[identity profile] skoosiepants.livejournal.com 2009-01-13 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Everyone always wants to know what happened to Mikey! I'm trying to work it in, but it never fits - we shall see!

I vote Maja for supersaturation verse and brendon/spencer and ryan and greta/bob for william's.

[identity profile] skoosiepants.livejournal.com 2009-01-13 06:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Maja! I'm going to have to figure out her voice...

Greta/Bob is always a good option :) I want to write about Bob proposing to Greta! It would be so sweet and awkward, even though he's been courting her for ages.

You want me to choose who I want to have more of in the House of Orphans?

Okay I'm really excited for more like Adam/Butcher. And like some William/Gabe because I love Gabe/William. But seriously, like anything. I will read anything.

I wish I could help you with Supersaturation, but I only read the first story. Waiting for Joe to get fixed.

[identity profile] athena415.livejournal.com 2009-01-13 05:42 pm (UTC)(link)
You ask these questions and then I cannot concentrate at work because I am thinking about them! I feel like saying Johnson for the Supersaturation universe is cheating, as you already focused a story on him. He was just so mysterious that I wanted to know more! Otherwise I vote for Marshall or Lacey (as I know nothing about the Rejects). And yay for more Bob/Joe! Your stories made me fall so hard for that pairing.

For William's House of Orphans, aka the story of my SOUL, I would love to see more Butcher/Siska. There is not enough fic about them, in my opinion, and you painted such a beautiful, complicated relationship in this fic and I would love to see where it goes.

[identity profile] skoosiepants.livejournal.com 2009-01-13 06:22 pm (UTC)(link)
That rat bastard Lacey!! I don't know, I always just make him a douche, you want me to give him, like, an actual characterization now? *laughs* That actually might be really interesting :)

I love that Butcher and Siska, I'm totally willing to write more of them :)
