buggeryGoing to try to cover a lot of ground with this one post. I've been neglecting my LJ too much of late.
As you may know, if you've tried IMing me or inviting me recently, I've been writing. A lot. And no, most of it hasn't yet appeared here or anywhere, sorry. Most of it has been a novel-length batshit-insane AU that Te and I are writing, and most of it will continue to be that story until we finish or it kills us.
If you've been waiting for me to come back to Smallville... well, it may yet happen. I'm distracted by other fandoms at the moment, though. And the "Shattered"/"Asylum" storyline was, and remains, really difficult for me. I do have a brief comment on "Whisper" I was wanting to share, though: stupid as it is for Lana's leg to be so completely healed so soon, at least we're no longer subjected to her not being able to even act like she has a limp; Pete not only had lines, not only had enough lines to qualify as dialogue, but was actually integral to the plot; and we finally get to see Her Honour Judge Mama Ross, who is just as bitchin as I would've expected. See? I'm still watching. I'll be back eventually.
I have a group of new icons I'm past due for a GIP about, so this is going to be it.
I said in my last GIP that I needed a Munch icon, and there he is, showing off his oral fixation. I also made myself a default-femslash icon I'm happier with, featuring deliciously deadpan Daria and Jane.
These three I made using scans graciously posted by other people: David Bowie feeling himself up (from The Man Who Fell to Earth), scan by![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
tvc15; "Superguh" bearded!long-haired!old!Clark (from Alex Ross's Kingdom Come), scan by thefakeheadline; and the "temptation" of Bruce adjusting himself in his jock in front of Tim (from Two-Face Strikes Twice Book 1), scan by domarzione.
This one I cropped down from a gorgeous drawing byglockgal, because I just didn't have enough Dick in my icon set. ::stares some more at source image:: Mmmmm, pretty.
And this one I needed partly due to my newfound obsession with Jason (Todd -- who knew?) and partly because of the aforementioned batshit-insane AU. You'll see...
Last but not least, my Tara. (That's "Tah-ra," not "Terra.") Because with 50 slots to work with, not having a kitty icon is just unconscionable.
So, other things. I have actually written some stories other than the AU, of late, though I haven't been my usual anal self with them. Last week I posted In Lieu of a Lecture, which, at some point, I really need to put through at least some editing, if not a full-on beta. Now that I've got this post done, I can post the one I wrote Friday-night-into-Saturday-morning, after which I got offline to do my weekly Food Not Bombs duties and then promptly passed out for a day. There should also be a post about the Robins' history in fairly short order, thanks to a conversation I had withunovis_lj the other day.
The evil cold weather continues to make my life hell, but if I start bitching about that I'll never get anything else finished.

And the fact that he is FUCKING HOT. I fail to see how he manages to walk down the street without getting jumped by everything theoretically capable of being attracted to a male.
The femmeslash icon and the kitty icons are darling. But I'm kind of obsessed with the Munch.
Belzer is one of two actors that I will admit to having a raging mad crush on. The other is Depp. I find it amusing that both are married with children and *live in France*.

Pretty boys are nice, don't get me wrong, and the manly men are great too, but him? Him I would not only not kick out of bed for eating crackers in bed, I would gladly, gleefully, happily give him the crackers *myself*. Just so I can watch him eat them.
