the state of bed
Oct. 23rd, 2011 10:37 amSo I have apparently started writing mid-series BSG fic, as long as "fic" still continues to definie single pairing fluff with the occasional angst because, well, it's Helo and Sharon, who still manage to be the most functional couple on Galactica despite the fact that
( are these even spoilers anymore (through 3x12, ) And yet, still the most functional couple! I mean, just try imagining Starbuck/Apollo fluff.
Mostly I'm just glad I'm writing again (and I really do not expect to write anything besides fluff, because BSG doesn't leave open the gaps I usually exploit and I'm just really curious to see if I can actually finish out the series this time through). On the other hand I'm writing things that have lines like "This is the sort of thing that only happens in bad novels and to Karl Agathon," so that oughta about sum up the general tenor of my fic brain right now.
(Baaaaaaackstory. I haz it. Some of it comes from Caprica (the show, not the character or the locale), and does a quiet name-related leap to make both Helo and the Adama family of Tauron extraction, since Agathon and Adama are both Greek names and I actually really loved Caprica. And you know it's just not a Bedlamsbard story if it doesn't have some kind of weird backstory and a fuckton of classical references.)

More classical stuff: last night I went to see the Assemblywomen, put on by the Tulane Department of Theatre and Dance, and it was fun and enjoyable and more raunchy that I'd expected. (On the other hand, it's a satire play, I should have seen that coming.)
Also yesterday was Homecoming, so campus was crawling with parents and alumni. *shudders* I kind of wanted to go to the game, since this is my senior year and I've never been to either a Tulane football game or to Homecoming, but...I don't like crowds, I don't like football, and I don't particularly like Tulane right now, so I didn't go and I was probably much happier for it.
I should probably actually consider doing homework today, since I didn't do any yesterday.
Also, perhaps unnecessary info, my period finally showed up, only six days late. Well, finally.
