everybody knows that the dice are loaded

Seriously, I got the best Yuletide present a girl could ask for.

Here's what I didn't ask for, but, after spending three days nose-deep in the Yuletide archive, here is what I crave, oh, crave, with every fiber in my ficklicious being. Look how all the girlslash I like is in fandoms so rare as to not actually be fandoms at all? Sad, sad meeee.

My offerings to the New Year's Resolution pile, except that most of them I forgot to actually request:

• Family Guy Brian/Stewie. Just, something wonderful and wrong and with roadtripping.
  
• thirtysomething, really, ANYTHING. I want TS fic SO BAD. Maybe some Ellyn/Melissa, some good subversive slash.
  
• Love & Rockets, Maggie/Hopey with some angst and punk rock? Or, like, Hopey/Penny where Hopey would rather be with Maggie? Mmmm.
  
• Northern Exposure, clever, angsty, sexy Fleischman/O'Connell, devoid of schmoop. Well, okay, a little schmoop. But not a lot!
  
• Betsy-Tacy. Tell me you don't want to read Betsy/Tacy/Tib 3some as much as I do? However, what I'd really like is some Betsy/Winona. Mmmm!
  
• Chronicles of Prydain, Eilonwy/Achren. How hot, seriously, would that be???
  
• And, since I can, MOOOOORE Into the Woods? Anything with the Baker and/or his wife.
  

I'm just sayin', I've got a birthday coming up in just about a month... *g*

Also, quietly? I am BUGGING OUT about my pilot. A draft of the script and the treatment are due January 10th. I have the story outlined to the letter, and I have the treatment nearly complete. What's missing, however, is the actual SCRIPT, with, you know, DIALOGUE in. What I've got exists piecemeal and in patches, because I wrote straight up from the outline and out of order, as is the WBC way. Of course, you don't realize until you're actually writing the scene that it turns out you need to KNOW about dust-collecting orbital panels if you want to craft a scene around them, and at a certain point [Nico fixes the orbital thingy] is INSUFFICIENT. And so, I am rere-rereading Zubrin's "The Case for Mars" as well as the TREMENDOUSLY helpful "Private Space Ventures," thank you, projectjulie!

And then I can fix the orbital thingy.

And then, hopefully, make it funny.

All of it. Twelve days!

runpunkrun, this is why I'm hiding from our Bug! World, expect a really awesome Punkensab SGA fic, sometime after January 10th?

AHAHAHAHAHA Brian/Stewie, eh?

Good luck with your script, hon. Easy and steady does it-you still have over a week to do it.

P.S. That's RIGHT, your birthday is in a little over a month. You got anything planned yet? I'd like to be involved in a celebration of the Sab!

My love for Brian and Stewie is so wrong and yet, it feels so RIGHT!

And, thanks for the kind words!

Oh, yes, please. YESPLEASE.

I mean, oh. yes.

Why do we not yet have thirtysomething DVDs?

I've been asking that question since, like, 1998. I mean, DUDE, both MSCL *and* Once and Again are out on DVD. WHERE's the Michael and Elliott Company?????

DUDE. let me help you. and i do recommend writing the script in order for the whole continuity information exposition thing, once you've got the outline done.
