Hear that, internets? That's the sound of hundreds of fangirls sighing wistfully as one. Oh well, at least we'll get a GK reunion out of it (and Huertas promised pictures).

Mazel tov, dahling.



(Side note: God, I miss Generation Kill *sigh* I wish it could have gone on forever somehow)

Anyway, here's the next installment of the thirty day writing meme:

Day Fourteen: How high are you comfortable with going? Have you ever written higher? If you're comfortable with NC-17, have you ever been shocked by finding that the story you're writing is G-rated instead?

Another multi-parter, I see.

1) I've written NC-17 enough times before that I suppose you could call me comfortable with it, provided my head's in the right place. I can't do it on command though, otherwise things that sound really hot in my head come out sounding really stupid in print.
2) I'm not entirely sure it's possible to top NC-17...
3) I wouldn't go so far as to say I've gone from NC-17 to G, but yeah, I've had stories start out raunchy in my head but wind up relatively tame (PG-13ish) in print, either because my porn muse crapped out on me or because the story was one of those flashes of inspiration that almost make your fingers move independently of your brain. Like, the story just flowed that way in an organic sense, I don't know how else to explain it.

Finally, appropo of nothing, I heard there's a fifth Final Destination movie coming out (or I was reminded, I may have seen posters of it before and just forgotten). Really? Really? Seriously, by this point it's time to either change the title or abandon all pretense and call the next one Final Destination 6: Trolololol.[/fascinating mini rant of the day]

Yeaaah, baby!Stark's not a baby anymore :( but I hope he'll have a fabulous day and wonderful years with his girl. Btw, I love that you chose a Skarsgard gif for this occasion!

(and Huertas promised pictures).

He did?!

[emerald-skies.livejournal.com]

They grow up so fast *sniffle* (she says about a guy who has like ten years on her) But yes, here's hoping to much happiness and many more silly, adorkable pictures on the internet. (I am so never going to get over that cat costume XD)

Btw, I love that you chose a Skarsgard gif for this occasion!

I did indeed, even though he's probably off somewhere crying perfect crystalline tears of angst. Very manly angst, of course, but angst nonetheless.

He did?!

I'm told that's what either his Facebook or his Twitter (I forget which) said, so yep. I hope at least one is another Muppet face picture like in your icon :P

[jean-iris.livejournal.com]

*butting in shamelessly*

Yes, he did. Quote: "The weather in Devon is sweet!!! Hanging with fellow GK'er Stark Sands! Bout 2 make some sloe gin & play wit some Eagles! Pics r a promise!"

[iwillrememberu.livejournal.com]

Ohh, I didn't even notice the last part of his tweet. Guess I was stuck on "Stark Sands" ;)

[jean-iris.livejournal.com]

Well, I must admit that ever since one of them mentioned that the GK guys were going to Stark's wedding (I think it was Eric Nenninger), I was waiting for Jon Huertas to say if he's going as well - he's always the first one to take and tweet pictures ;)

[iwillrememberu.livejournal.com]

Nobody's ever going to get over that cat costume... that was FREAKY.

I did indeed, even though he's probably off somewhere crying perfect crystalline tears of angst. Very manly angst, of course, but angst nonetheless.

... or getting shitfaced drunk. Which is HIGHLY propable anyway.

[emerald-skies.livejournal.com]

Freaky, yet also bizarrely attractive at the same time.

...although I might perhaps be a tad biased. Ahem.

... or getting shitfaced drunk. Which is HIGHLY propable anyway.

I was gonna say, why does this have to be an either/or situation?

[iwillrememberu.livejournal.com]

LOL I wouldn't say "attractive" but interesting, definitely.

I was gonna say, why does this have to be an either/or situation?

It doesn't! And it's not like the shitfaced drunk part doesn't happen every other day anyway lol

[emerald-skies.livejournal.com]

EXACTLY. I want another version of this incident:



You know there's a chance it could happen if they let him have liquor.

[emerald-skies.livejournal.com]

P.S. - ESPECIALLY IF IT'S STARK HE'S HANGING OFF OF/MOLESTING THIS TIME

[pjvilar.livejournal.com]

They seem happy and I'm glad for them. Thank you for this post -- I totally need the cameraderie. :)

[emerald-skies.livejournal.com]

You're welcome, glad to help! You're right though, they're so adorable that you can't help being happy for them.

[spirited-lizard.livejournal.com]

Already a few weeks ago, I was thinking about Stark. 2 days to go! I hope they'll have a lovely day, - and I can't wait for pics! *g*

[emerald-skies.livejournal.com]

Is it bad that I'm secretly hoping some of the pics will be from the stag party so we can have another drunken GK boys picspam? They know how to bring the lulz when they get hammered, I'm just saying.

[pjvilar.livejournal.com]

If Huertas' tweet is to be taken literally, they are making their own gin and seriously, that wouldn't surprise me.

[emerald-skies.livejournal.com]

Oh God, now I'm just having mental flashes of drunken M*A*S*H-esque prank wars

[bgaleb.livejournal.com]

Ah @Jon_Huertas I heart you so much right now!

ASkars can cry his manly tears on his best friend Fares Fares's shoulder! They seem to be inseparable. I wonder though, if ASkars will even be there?

[pjvilar.livejournal.com]

I had not heard of Fares Fares and just looked him up. I would totally have a bromance with him, were I a bro. He did once star in a film called "Bang Bang Orangutang," which, weirdly enough, is not a comedy. Hm.

[bgaleb.livejournal.com]

Before ASkars I never heard about him too. But then I started to pay attention and suddenly he is everywhere - especially in every candid pic of ASkars and almost in every early film. I think they were friends forever.

[emerald-skies.livejournal.com]

Ikr? If it were anyone else, I would probably be fuming and rage-y, but it's them and they're so adorkable that it makes me kind of smile in spite of myself just thinking about it.

But, then again, I'm not going soft in my old age, I'm just a hopeless romantic.

[emerald-skies.livejournal.com]

Have you heard the story of how they met? It's seriously the cutest thing ever, and pretty much sums up their general adorableness as a whole.

[emerald-skies.livejournal.com]

Sadly no, but that would've been pretty hilarious if he had.

Let's see if I can remember this right...Iirc, he and some friend of his (named Roger, this becomes important in a second) were at some art gallery thing in England. They both notice her, and the friend tries to make a move first but she was like "I can't stand the name Roger, that was my ex's name" so Stark butts in and says "I'm not Roger :D"

Honestly, I've heard weirder pickup lines :P

[emerald-skies.livejournal.com]

Either I live under the biggest rock ever or that must be an Aussie thing, because I've never heard of it. But yes, that is indeed her in the NYC/day in the life photo shoot. Pretty, no?

(While I would probably look like absolute crap as a straight-haired blonde, I do definitely envy how her hair actually...like...behaves and shit, instead of doing the Bozo the Clown thing like mine does *headdesk*)

[emerald-skies.livejournal.com]

Alas, I don't have the bone structure to pull off the boy short look. And really, my hair isn't poodle levels of bad, it's more that it behaves like classic Irish hair (because there's a LOT of Irish in my family) -- red, wavy, and pretty goddamn stubborn. It even defies straighteners, I'm telling you.

[emerald-skies.livejournal.com]

You should move somewhere windy - at least then you'd have an excuse. Move here. :DDD

Hmmm...should I live in relative safety with uncontrollable hair, or fight for my life in a country full of various flotsam and jetsam that have all sorts of fun and exciting ways to kill me? Decisions...

(On the other hand, I do have lots of Aussie flisters, so at least I would be fighting for my life in fun company!)

As long as I look the part and keep my mouth shut, no one will ever guess I am really a fifteen year old in disguise.

HA! Oh God, I almost half-suffocated irl from muffling laughter (because waking the rest of my family up is never a good thing to do). It's okay, bb, I won't bust you to anyone :P

[pau494.livejournal.com]

Here's looking at you, Stark! And Gemma! We should all just have a giant fangirl party and marathon GK or something.

Did you see the picture of the place they rented? It is the most gorgeous building EVER. I hope they have a lot of fun and a lot of AUTHORIZED pictures make it online! You know, that Huertas took.

Do we have confirmation that ASkars is there? Drunk!ASkars is hilaaarious. :DDD

[emerald-skies.livejournal.com]

If some sort of fangirl party isn't already in the works in one of the many, many relevant comms, I'll be very surprised and disappointed. I didn't look at pictures of the place they rented or even the exact date of the wedding (I only just found the latter out recently) when it got posted to the Stark comm because it felt like knowing exact details like that would be just a touch too personal for my tastes. It's not stalking or anything, it would have just felt...weird. Idk.

Do we have confirmation that ASkars is there? Drunk!ASkars is hilaaarious

Not yet, but GOD I hope he shows up (painful as it might be for him *sniffle*) Drunken shenanigans will make it all better for everyone *pats ASkars*


(P.S. - I have lots more costume fic for your perusal whenever you're ready, I haven't sent it in email form yet because it's a lot and I already sent you like forty emails as it is XD)

[pau494.livejournal.com]

I couldn't help myself, but I clicked away before I read any of the other stuff, I definitely felt weird, I know what you mean. :/

Oh, ASkars. There will be plenty of other people to drunkenly hit on at the wedding!

I think I can get to the emails tomorrow! \o/ So sometime after I reply? I AM EXCITED.

I was reading your comment about how Stark hit on Gemma, weren't they at a bar? I think he talked about it on a radio interview with Esper and Johnny, iirc he also mentioned his proposal. And then they sang a song from the show, and I blanked on everything else, hee!

[emerald-skies.livejournal.com]

There will be plenty of other people to drunkenly hit on at the wedding!

Ah, but the question is, will any of them be NEARLY as accomplished at eyefucking? Just sayin'.

I think I can get to the emails tomorrow! \o/ So sometime after I reply? I AM EXCITED.

Hee, all I can say is this; poor Will. It's okay, bb, it's about to get better *cuddles him*


Were they at a bar? Bugger, Idk why I remembered something about an art gallery, it's been about a million years since I heard the story, I guess something got muddled. Even at the time I was too busy cooing over the adorableness to pay undivided attention (and I may also have been slain by how nice his speaking voice sounds on recordings *ahem*)

[pau494.livejournal.com]

Obviously NOT. Stark is perfect at it. Sucks for ASkars, though. :(

WIIIIILL. It's okay to torture him because it's going to be so good for him later.

I'm sure I listened to that interview on the Stark comm, but I can't even remember when. I think it was recorded around the time AI opened? Because the lady interviewing them was talking about opening night and how the audience went crazy when Tony Vincent first showed up and she didn't even know who he was supposed to be. I flailed at that entire interview, nbd. YES, ADORABLE ALL AROUND.

[emerald-skies.livejournal.com]

Have a snippet from right after Grace throws down the gauntlet like I described in the email (the one that gets the "ARE YOU TRYING TO FUCKING KILL ME, WOMAN?" reaction out of Will):

"Okay, when Grace promised her dares wouldn't be humiliating, Will realizes in hindsight that he should've made her extend that to dares that could cause heart failure too. Hindsight's twenty-twenty, he thinks dazedly.

Tunny clears his throat and says hesitantly, "That's probably not a good idea." He steadfastly avoids looking at Will as he says it.

Ouch. Whoever said that thing about sticks and stones and how words can't ever hurt you was full of shit, judging from the sharp pang in Will's chest. He does his best to keep it from showing in his face though, just because now would probably be the worst possible time in the history of ever for Tunny to find out about Will's feelings."

I'm entirely too good at torturing him...

[pau494.livejournal.com]

Will, he doesn't mean it like thaaat! POOR BABY. *cuddles* OH I CAN'T WAIT TO READ THE WHOLE THING.

Gah, I should go to sleep. Have a great night, bb. <333

[emerald-skies.livejournal.com]

Well, even well-adjusted people can get rather insecure around those they have feelings for, and Will's not exactly coming from a great emotional place to begin with. It'll get better though!

And yes, go to sleep, I promise there will be plenty more fic where that came from tomorrow *g*

(Holy crap, I just checked the word count on this whole thing -- 10,308 words, and I'm only just getting warmed up O_o)

[jean-iris.livejournal.com]

So, Huertas just tweeted a pic of Stark holding a motherfuckin' EAGLE. I can't even. I sent you a link on skype.
