Recs and Things.

[dodger_sister]

I bought The Nephew some Choose-Your-Own-Adventure books for his birthday - (my brothers and I used to be so into those as kids) - and I just read through one to see if it was any good. I went on three different adventures in the same book and got three different endings; the embassy sent me back to the United States and I had to give up my quest for the mysterious jewels, I got inducted into a secret society, and I died. Pretty fun!

Also, I watched the season finale of Vikings yesterday and I have a few things to say...Gyda!! Athelstan's face! His stupid face. /clutches him to my chest/ JFC, Ragnar, you are an asshole. This show is so fucking good! I am impressed with The History Channel.

I watched this week's Chicago Fire as well. I was not onboard with that storyline about Severide at all, for Reasons, but I thought the way he brought it to a head this week was pretty fucking awesome. I loved everything between Herrmann and Boden. Seriously, cartoon hearts appear in my vision every time Herrmann is on screen. I am so confused by him though - do I want him to marry me or adopt me? IDK! I haven't been this confused about a man since Bobby Singer. It was just a really good episode all around - (they usually are). My only complaint is that it should have been Severide who went to Casey at the end, not Peter. Just cuz, Feelings.

Now I fic rec you.

Echo - Reid stops talking after Tobias Henkel. After a while, Morgan can't remember his voice. - Reid & Morgan Gen fic that was just So Good for me. Reid-pain and Morgan-pain and it is all like a little delicious cookie of angst.

Cloudburst - There are some things you just can't ignore - Jo/Kat Adult fic. Post-hunt porn...is there anything better? Seriously, this is so ridiculously hot in like an "I'll be in my bunk" kind of way. And anyways, it's all liptonrm's fault that Jo/Kat are my femslash pairing of OTP to begin with!

Under Your Influence (The Way It Works Like Caffeine) - The one where Bruce and Darcy try to have a date. - The first Bruce/Darcy fic I read after deciding they were my Avengers OTP and it hit all my buttons perfectly. Bruce's awkwardness is just lovely, Tony is awesome and there is bonus!Peter Parker. Also, Darcy-Clint-bffs is my new headcanon.

Thanks For Nothing - Jackson is not a nice person and he doesn't do nice things. So when he finds out Danny has a thing for Stiles, he definitely doesn't try to get them together. Really. - I'm all about Danny/Stiles and I fucking love Jackson for reasons that Danny actually explains perfectly in this fic. Also, the Danny-voice here is spot-on. A Danny/Stiles fic that might actually be about Jackson's issues and it was everything I needed!

Unnamed Poem - wolfrider89 says she wrote this right after watching Reichenbach Falls and holy shit, does it paint an image in my head of John Watson trying to escape the ghost of Sherlock. On top of it, it is also a really good piece of poetry that speaks in a very raw way of what it's like to be the person left behind.

Enjoy those! I'm going to work on my anniversary answers this weekend, so if you still want to ask me a question, you can do that here.

shey said to dawson last week so your settling for mills (basically) and she said yeah.

Oh yeah, I remember that now. Ugh, I just feel like...Mills is very sweet and I think Dawson does really care about him and maybe even love him, but I don't feel like she is in love with him, certainly not the way he feels about her. So even though I really liked them together at first, I kind of wish she would just end before Mills gets too hurt.

i think she'll go more towards casey next season.

I hope they don't hook them up too fast. It won't be realistic if Casey doesn't grieve first.

their making a spin off alread chicago pd, we'll see how that goes.

I hadn't heard that! Hmmm, I'll have to think about whether or not to watch it. I already watch Southland and you can't get much better as far as cop shows go. I think what had me so interested in Chicago Fire at first was that I've never watched a firefighter show before.

i need to get a severide icon or someone lol. where did you find yours is there a comm around. i really like boden to :)

I love Boden so much, and damn he has a sexy voice, right?

chicagofire_tv is where I post my fics and get my icons. You can also discuss the show there in their episode posts. It's a pretty good comm. Also, oxoniensis makes really good icons. I tried to make my own but it didn't look quite right and even though we don't know each other that well, she offered to fix it for me and I really like how it came out. She has some really nice Severide-Shay ones as well.

i agree but remember they we're slpit before so i'm not sure how much he'll grieve.

southland got cancelled :( i love coop and boots i'll miss the show. but it was going down hill, as many long staying shows do.

chicago pd is taking dawson's brother and the cop that gave casey a hard time the crooked one.

southland got cancelled

Ugh, I didn't know that! Crap, I am all sad now. Honestly, the best cop show I have ever watched and I love all the characters and will miss them so much.

Chicago PD actually sounds interesting and I think I'll give it a shot next year! Thanks for the heads up! I really love how Chicago Fire (and now Chicago PD) are set in Chicago and actually film in Chicago. I like when shows do that because it makes the show more realistic, you know.

i agree it's better when they film it in the real place.
