I am strongly resisting the urge to write a Peter and Edmund Golden Age story called "Bedlam Boys." Mostly because I am having the disconcerting experience of not actually having a plot, but having a title. (I am very nearly always the other way around.) Also because I'm having a moment of, "Dude, what's the etiquette about having part of your name in the title?" (The sad thing is this applies in RL, too. Not with Bedlam, obviously. My RL last name.)

But the plot thing is more important.

Where the hell is this sudden urge to write ten million words of Golden Age fic coming from? Isn't Dust enough? (No! scream the voices in my head. The angst and bitterness is overwhelming us! WE NEED TO BE HAPPY, DAMN IT!)

Classes suck. Why couldn't I go to one of those schools that cancelled for the inauguration? Or have one of those professors? (I do not. Clearly. Although, like, all my friends do.)

In other news, I have not seen my roommate since the day before yesterday. Well, okay.

my first roomie slept in the room we shared a grand total of 6 times. It was awesome!

She has slept here twice so far over the course of the past eight nights! 's not that I protest, it's just, "Well, you're shelling out a couple of grand for the room, you might as well, you know, stay here."

but that would make SENSE!

But she is here now!

I have this mental image of you taking a sticky labeling device and putting "BEDLAM'S" and "PROPETY OF __MINE!__" all over Peter and Edmund.

So you get the room all to yourself. This is usually not a problem.

It is not! I am just kind of surprised. Although I know she came in sometime while I was in class, since she left me Casablanca.

the other day i came across a fic titled the same as mine and i was like :-O! which is not usually so weird, except it was "remember me as a time of day" of the anna/susan crack. and also maybe not so weird considering it's also a song title from Explosions In The Sky so we were just ripping off the same source. but i mean, you know. it's not usual phrase, so.

IF I START WRITING PSYCH FIC IT'S GONNA BE AWKWARD

it is always with the brain explodey-ness when there are fics with the same titles. *muses* although i don't think i've actually seen any.

i do know that i'm kind of kicking myself for naming some of my earlier narnia fics what i did, because the titles would work so much better elsewhere.

TRUFAX: when i was a wee little thing in my first days of fandom, back in hp, back in, oh god, 2002, my name was "keisha black-malfoy." YES. i was one of those fans.

I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN
the title for my "susan in aslan's country" fic (all the trees of the field will clap their hands, titled after a sufjan stevens song, which is taken from the bible) i used previously to title a post-LWW drabble. I SHAMELESSLY USED IT AGAIN, because whatev it was a drabble. also, that sufjan stevens song just fit the susan fic better. DERIVATION FRENZY.

LOL BLACK-MALFOY. OH YOU.

the main ones i can think of are "such deliberate disguises" and "long forgotten wars." actually, i think "long forgotten wars" is fine, i just may use it for an original at some point in the future. but "such deliberate disguises", man, that would make a great golden age edmund fic some time.

I WAS TWELVE.

i was also dumb enough to tell people i was twelve, so whatever.
