Had the oddest dream last night that somebody posted a link to Protocol on one of those badfic LJ communities. Which didn't really bother me in the slightest, but made me scratch my head as the community in question was dedicated to Alias fanfic. So I found my dream-self sitting there and wanting to comment that while I wouldn't dispute that Protocol might fail on several general goodfic standards, was this a badfic standard that it should have been judged by? But then again I couldn't really fault them on the flawless accuracy in pointing out that as Alias-fics go, Protocol is undoubtedly right up there with being one of the worst.
Perhaps tomorrow I'll dream of Pet being nominated for this year's worst Star Wars fic. You know, just to round it out. 8)
Tonight is holy day of obligation, and I remain in staunch denial about there being only 3 episodes left. Just shut up. SHUT UP I tell you! I deal with the pain through the healthy methods of eating chocolate and pizza while I watch. It's self-medicating, true, but with only 3 eps to go (SHUT UP!) I figure my body can handle it.
And now I cry like Butters.
It'll be interesting to see how the end of the show (SHUT UP) will affect various fics in progress. Not that I'll stop writing, 'cause I don't see why the boys have to stop having all the gay sex they weren't having onscreen anyway, but just in terms of how the lack of new canon might affect decisions I make about various plotlines.
Like I had vaguely been thinking of wrapping Epiphany up with Arc Five (which is partially why it's been on hold for so long) due to the fact that the show's progressed so much from the canon I started with, but now that new canon will effectively be dead I wonder if I won't mind keeping that concept open for any new potential stories that might apply to it. And will Pet still be the same for me and others as we see the ultimate twists and turns of the boys working for Wolfram & Hart? Just have to wait and see, I suppose. I feel confident that Protocol won't get Jossed though. Call it a hunch ;)
And now to pretend to work.
