It’s so lovely to have my muses back.

Title: Nicotine

Author: K8 (cata_clysmiic)

Disclaimer: Nuuu, I dunt own anything! The characters here are Chris Carter’s creation. If I’d had my way with them, they’d probably have made out on Mulder’s desk early on in the 9th season … and other such inappropriate things.

Characters: Scully, Reyes.

Rating: PG / PG-13.

Notes: Set almost directly after “William” – henceforth spoilers from that episode. Title taken from Ani Difranco’s (beautiful) song of the same name.

Summary: "I feel like…” she murmurs, leaning back against the sofa and fixing Scully with a look that would have hinted at shyness had this been anyone else but Monica Reyes, “…you could read my mind right now, if you wanted to.”

Title: Five Things That May or May Not Have Happened During Doggett’s Son’s Case (AKA: I Seriously Couldn’t Come Up With a Better Title? I Suck.)

Author: K8 (cataclysmiic)

Disclaimer: These characters are Chris Carter’s lovely and underappreciated creations, not mine.

Characters: Doggett, Reyes.

Rating: PG to R.

Notes: Like the ridiculously long and uncreative title suggests: three things that did not happen during Doggett’s son’s investigation, and two that did. Most are pretty obvious as to which category they fall under. Hopefully this finds some happy, angst-lovin' readership. :) Oh, spoilers for seasons 8 and 9, probably: Empedocles, Release, The Truth, etc.

Summary: I’m sorry, she thought to him, to anyone else who might be listening. I’m sorry, I’m so sorry.

I am so into fanmixes lately. Wtf.

My contribution to xf_is_love for Doggett and Reyes.

So I've recently gotten back into The L Word (damn, it's a good show) and have whipped up a little fanmix for my OTP of the fandom, Bette & Tina (damn, they's sexy) just in time for Valentine's Day! Could it be more perfect? I think not.

Omfg, I'm so effing excited for the Fall I could...could...argh, I don't know, but it would be something extremely darastic! Man, aren't you all PSYCHED?! Don't you just love watching the leaves turn slowly from their summery green to red and gold, smelling that cold, crisp, smoke wood-tinged air? OH MY GOOOOD. And nice warm sweaters? Lovely autumn walks and good books? And pumpkin bread? Pumpkin spice lattes? PUMPKINS IN GENERAL?

Whew. Yeah man, I'm pumped. Got my Autumn/Fall playlist all locked and loaded.

Anyway, here's a meme that I've stolen from pretty much everyone on my flist. <3

So it's been, what, two weeks since Deathly Hallows was released? That makes it one week since I actually finished the damn thing, and I'm still not over it.

DAMN YOU, JKR, DAMN YOU.

Anyone else still in the post-DH depression? :/

This calls

( for another celebratory graphic, albeit a rather more depressing one )

Oh oh oh oh oh! And if anyone out there wants to see some geeky fangirls (and one fanboy) dressing up as the dead sexy Harry Potter professors and Death Eaters for the book release, here's the link.


In other news, I'm using this crazeh "Phoenix 1.9.6 OS X" thing to update my LJ now because apparently, the universe hates Mac. So if anything about this post looks off when I finally get it up ... blame the MacBook.

Sleep?  Who needs sleep?  Pfft.

So I recently watched the third season of Alias.  Seriously, someone tell me that the Sydney/Vaughn/Lauren triangle is not so completely Jean/Scott/Emma with less sexual tension.  I know some people around these parts believe Melissa George should play Emma in some hypothetical X4, and lemme tell ya, after seeing her on Alias, I'm sold.  Lauren is Emma with less taste.

And with that, I bring you

New icon inspired by last week's episode of 30 Rock.  Anybody see it?  likeadeuce, I know you did!

"America, which I invented..."

OmgIalmostdiedlaughing.

<3 Thomas Jefferson.  And of course Tina Fey for making my Thursday nights more cheerful and whimsical.

So for some reason my mom gave me some of those cheap-o Valentines you get from Wal-Mart to hand out to people yesterday.  They were West Coast Chopper brand (or something like that) and had little stick-on biker tattoos.  They said "born to ride" on them, so I took a sharpie and x'ed out "ride" and put "run" instead.  So I handed them out and told everyone they were Bruce Springsteen valentines.  BORN TO RIDE RUN, BITCHES!

I totally win. :D

In other news, one of my old  fandoms is coming back to haunt me in the form of Hannibal Rising.  Anyone seen it?  Omg SO GOOD.  SOOOOO deliciously cannibalistically not-quite-but-kind-of incestually good.  I was worried I wouldn't be able to watch another Lecter movie without Clarice (Red Dragon was fantastic and all, but I missed my favorite red-headed FBI agent -- errr besides Scully), but Gong Li proved a very nice distraction.

Anyyyyyway.  I have two precious hours of peace and quiet until I'm sucked back into four hours of slave labor for play rehersal.  I wouldn't even mind so much if I wasn't missing The Office, Scrubs, and 30 Rock.  -pain-  I love my comedy Thursdays.  So anyway, I think I'll spend at least 45 minutes of my leisure time catching up on fic.

Have a great night, all. <3

Famke Janssen is at the Sundance Film festival this week, meaning she's only a few short hours away from me at this very moment.   -_-  This is a very sad feeling.

 Goddamn it.  I wish I could go.

Current Mood: sad

Okay, quickly...has anyone seen Eulogy?  I've decided it's time I should start pimping it.  I'll try to summarize why one should see it in a paragraph sentence or less:  An extremely dysfunctional family consisting of Hank Azaria (one-time child star turned porn star), Zooey Deschanel (his daughter), Ray Ramano (father of Weasley-twins-like troublemakers...only evil), Kelly Preston (lesbian, whose life partner is Famke Janssen), and Debra Winger (homophobe with an aggressive personality) are all heading back home for the death of their father (Rip Torn), but don't necessarily care about him or the funeral and proceed to passive aggressively bicker about decades-old hostilities, meanwhile their mother (Piper Laurie) spends the entire time clumsily trying to kill herself in front of all of them.  

In conclusion, Famke Janssen and Kelly Preston as lesbians with deleted scene consisting entirely of them making out stoned on a couch.  So go see it.  Now.   But okay really -- it's flipping hilarious, and it never gets old.  I laugh just as hard when I watch it now as the first time I saw it.

Also, I recently started getting into the series Lost.  Lost fans, anyone?  Anyone at all?  It's so damn addicting.  Any show that can name the enlightened/zen/philosophical character John Locke with a straight face deserves props.  Oh, and Kate/Sawyer/Jack is so Jean/Logan/Scott, only instead of Westechester it's....a cursed tropical island.  And the roles are switched.  And Sawyer's a helluva lot more like Gambit.  BUT STILL.  THE SEXUAL TENSIONS ARE THERE.

And, as a closing note, eiluned, your Jean/Logan fanmix is rocking my socks off.

 A little Christmas Eve fic, for anyone who hasn't yet been kidnapped by family and/or other festivities.

Title:  Mistletoe Diaries

Author: cataclysmiic

Disclaimer:  I don’t own them, but once again, I will accept one as a Christmas gift. ;D

Summary:  This is a series of drabbles, each of a different pairing, containing kisses under the mistletoe.  Oooh, exciting and original, isn’t it?  By the way, I would’ve liked to have added a few serious slash pairings, but there are only so many days until Christmas, and what with how busy everyone gets around this time of year, I ran out of time.  Forgive me.

1)  Jean/Ororo (friendship)
2)  Jean/Scott
3)  Logan/Rogue (sorta friendship)
4)  Logan/Jean
5)  Kurt/Ororo

These are all movieverse.  ;)   MERRY CHRISTMAS, EVERYONE.

Please allow me to spread some Christmas cheer by  reccomeding that everyone read this.

Dave Sedaris fans?  Anyone?  It's a Christmas essay by him called "Six to Eight Black Men" that's just too hilarious.  Those crazy Dutch -coughFAMKEcough-.  <3

Current Mood: giggly

Title:  This is How I See You
Author:  cataclysmiic
Fandom/Pairing:  X-Men, Jean/Scott
Notes:  For the Christmas song challenge at jeannie_x_slim.  I picked Sarah McLachlan’s “Wintersong”, because it IS a Christmas song, damn it.  Really, I swear.  It totally counts.
Dislclaimer:  I don't own them.  Though I will accept one as a Christmas gift. :)
Rating:  PG

Summary:  “Merry Christmas,” she whispers, and slips something small and wrapped in a shiny red bow into his hand.  The wrapping crinkles slightly in the silence, the bow feels soft against his palm.

Okay, so, someone tell me por favor ... what's the consensus on Grant Morrison and the New X-Men comics?  Are they horrid?  Are they okay, not great?  Are they fantabulous?  I've read mixed reviews from fans and critics, but I trust my flist to tell me the truth.  I think at this point I've probably read maybe one complete issue of New X-Men, and I didn't think it was that bad, but of course I have no idea what the hell I'm doing.  I think the only XM comics I've read all the way through are 13ish issues of Ultimate X-Men, which doesn't even count.

Anyway!  Thoughts?

So I love Albertsons.  They hook me up, yo.  Last week when X3 came out they had this kick ass cardboard display thingy, and being the silly geek that I am, I immediately asked them if I could take it home with me when they were done with it.  Sooo cut to today, and I'm stuffing this huge cardboard monstrosity into the trunk of my little car, and it is now sitting in my living room doorway because I have no room for it elsewhere and because I don't know where else to put it.

I was thinking about cutting Wolverine or Phoenix out of it and just sitting them in the front seat of my car.  Or maybe just sticking one of them to a pole and carrying it around with me everywhere.

Any other suggestions? :D

Also, I just found this.
