I finally saw Red yesterday. It was entertaining and completely over the top (somehow more so than even the previews had led me to believe). I will likely buy it on DVD when it is released.

Karl Urban was hot and had the tough job of taking himself and his character seriously while the movie around him was madcap. Helen Mirren is absolutely phenomenal and I love her (love love love!), and Bruce Willis and Mary Louise Parker won me over. Morgan Freeman, John Malkovich, and Brian Cox were hilarious and quirky. I liked the "caper" aspect to the movie, although it did take me a while to settle in and just accept the movie for what it was: funny, quirky, ridiculous fun.

I have a short shift at work this afternoon (What was I thinking?!?! Oh, right, I was thinking that I want to not be broke) and am waiting to make sure I won't be canceled. I've sorted my piled up mail, organized my bills-to-be-paid, washed and folded some of my pile of laundry, and broke down cardboard boxes and took them out for recycling. In short, I feel like I've actually accomplished something. I also have begun a recipe for pomegranate truffles that sounds divine. The filling is now hardening in the fridge. We shall see how it turns out tonight when I get back and finish it.

~~~~~

My goal is to have a draft of my [livejournal.com profile] space_wrapped fic finished by Friday. Is anyone available and interested in taking a look at it or even doing a full beta? Star Trek, Kirk/McCoy, humor, unknown length (not long though).

Tired, no time for proper intro.

This week's theme was: transportation.



Original Prompt: Spock Prime, Kirk, McCoy - Stargate

This week's theme was squicks. Prompts were both squicks that the prompter has as well as things the prompter likes that other people often find squicky.

Being unable to leave well enough alone I simply had to turn two of the prompts on their ears. I love Uhura and tend not to find the "Uhura is a total bitch for no apparent reason" fics as well as the "McCoy is a wuss who must always be saved and never do the saving" trope to not be my cup of tea, so I toyed with those "squicks" a bit. I know, I know, perhaps not what the prompter intended (or maybe it was?) but since this comm is a free-for-all comm rather than a gift or wish fulfillment comm, I figure it's okay to risk not interpreting the prompts as intended. My cup of tea is not your cup of tea and vice versa.

My contributions were as follows:

Prompt: Uhura, Author's Choice - Bitch!Uhura
Authority; Uhura, OC, Kirk, PG )

***

Prompt: Kirk, Spock, McCoy - Weak!McCoy
A Man of Many Talents; McCoy/Kirk/Spock, R )

***

Prompt: Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Uhura – Affairs
Imagination; Uhura/McCoy/Kirk/Spock, PG-13 )

***

Prompt: Sarek, Amanda - Pon farr
Fully Informed; Sarek/Amanda, PG-13 )

***

I don't know why I write cutesy Sarek/Amanda. They weren't cutesy in the movie, so I have no idea where it's coming from. I like it though ;)

Late posting these to my own journal. Ah well. The week's theme was submissions to the My Life Is Average website. Once again I wound up having my own little mini-theme within the prompts I snagged and it was apparently academy fic.

Prompt: Uhura, Gaila - Today I realized that Build-A-Bear's slogan is "Where best friends are made." I found that quite sad.
The Start of a Beautiful Friendship; Uhura, Gaila (background Spock/Uhura), PG, warnings: character death )

****

Prompt: McCoy, Joanna - Today my 2yr old daughter said her first knock knock joke. She said "knock knock" I said "who's there?" she said "me"
Knock, Knock; Kirk, McCoy, Joanna, PG )

****

Prompt: Kirk, Uhura - Today, I was driving through the canyon when I passed a sign that said, "Falling rocks". In between the two words, someone had written "in love", so it now read "Falling in love rocks."
Expressing Oneself; Kirk/Uhura, PG )

So I was in France for the last B2S and it starts ridiculously later over in Europe, so I only managed one fic and then crashed hard. On the plus side I intend it to be suggestive of K/S/M which is one of my guaranteed-to-press-my-buttons topics, so that's nice :) Only suggestive, though, because writing porny scenes scares me when there's just two players (hence my tendency for fade-to-blacks and ending before the porn actually gets much going). Add in a third and I run in fear. I shall stick to reading porny threesomes. Fortunately this fandom does not disappoint with the number of threesome/moresome options out there.


This weeks theme: Band Names

I think it's pretty safe to say I had an excellent time at B2S this week. So many fun and moving drabbles and ficlets to read and good times writing, too.
bluegeek: (Writing)

I got a little... out of hand tonight. For some reason the song title theme and resultant prompts really worked for me tonight inspiration-wise and I wanted to dive all over several of them.

In other news, I'm starting to feel better - yay! Only the medication I'm on makes me WIRED, meaning not a lot of sleep - boo! But breathing is good. I strongly support breathing.

In other, other news, my birthday is tomorrow! Now, my sister and I have already kinda sorta celebrated our bdays since she went back to Iowa today, but I imagine my parents and I will have dinner tomorrow or something.

I was thinking about doing that reverse gifting thing where, for my birthday, anyone who wants one would give me a prompt and I would write a drabble/ficlet for them. Is there interest out there were I to do that tomorrow?
bluegeek: (Star Trek - Boldy Go)
I survived the long week last week and then I had a nice weekend filled with good friends and laughing and video games. I am in a good mood :)

On to the ficlets! This weeks theme was body parts. Don't worry, I mostly behaved myself.


Prompt: Spock, McCoy - Fingertips

Exploration, Spock/McCoy, R(ish) )

***

Prompt: Kirk, McCoy - Knuckles

Dependable, Kirk/McCoy, PG-13 )

***

Prompt: Sulu, Uhura - Palm

Unfair Advantage, Kirk/McCoy, PG-13) )

I am working next weekend, so limited B2S, if any at all. Sadness. But at least I'll have something nice to read when I get home :) Someone write porn, ok? Cuz that would be very pleasant to come home to.
bluegeek: (Star Trek - Boldy Go)
I finally wrote Kirk/McCoy again! It's been a while and I've definitely missed them.

This week's theme was leftovers (as in prompts remaining from previous rounds). My drabbles and ficlets are below.


Prompt: Kirk, McCoy - I would rather be ashes than dust! / I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet.

Flash, Kirk/McCoy, PG-13 )

***

Kirk, McCoy - I keep a close watch on this heart of mine

Under My Skin, Kirk/McCoy, PG-13 )

***

Prompt: Pike, Kirk - ... but I want instead to see if you yourself will pass this way.

A Man of Worth, Pike, Kirk, PG-13 )

***

Prompt: Spock, Uhura - All you add is love.

Jitters, Spock/Uhura, G )

***

In addition to drabbling tonight I also managed to make a HUGE pot of lemony cream of chicken & rice soup. It turned out so well, and now I have some in the fridge and tons in the freezer for easy meals this week.
bluegeek: (Star Trek - Lovely Uhura)
So tonight's activities resulted in two [livejournal.com profile] bridge2sickbay ficlets and a batch of seriously delicious chocolate cookies.

The B2S theme for this week was poetry quotes.

I wasn't familiar with either of the quotes when I read them at the comm, so the fics were inspired by the line(s) alone. I googled the poems after the fact to find out where the lines came from.

To Share a Journey, Gaila/Pike, PG )

***

Warmth, Spock/Uhura, G )

***

So, yes. I feel absurdly proud to have produced anything at all tonight. I've been struggling all week, wanting write and yet not typing a single keystroke. So yes, glad to have anything at all to show for my weekend :)

My cookies are excellent as well :) Far more polished an attempt than the ficlets, by far :) I used a recipe recommended by [livejournal.com profile] wesleysgirl which can be found here only without using the buttercream to make them into sandwiches. I've found that while I adore the cookie part itself, I stink at making buttercream frosting (when I tried the recipe originally it wouldn't stiffen up and was gooey and messy and grainy and just overall terrible). So I left it out and nommed nicely tonight on lovely chocolate coffee cookies. Half the batch is tucked away into the cookie jar and the other half is packed up to take to work for my coworkers to descend upon like a ravening horde.

***

Back to [livejournal.com profile] bridge2sickbay for a moment. A couple of my prompts were posted but not filled. I am reposting them here to a) hopefully encourage someone to write them for me *pleading eyes* or, if need be, b) remember them for some undisclosed time in the future to try out myself.

~Pike, Kirk or McCoy, Kirk - Follow me ever - desert me not while I live. (Ashes of Soldiers by Walt Whitman)

~Author's Choice - The sun and moon get crossed, but they never touch (On Looking Up By Chance at the Constellations by Robert Frost)

~Spock, Uhura - Your soul is oftentimes a battlefield, upon which your reason and your judgment wage war against passion and your appetite. (Reason & Passion by Khalil Gibran)

~Winona, Pike - I could've died for love - But for livin' I was born (Life is Fine by Langston Hughes)
