Sometimes I love my homestate and where I live. I don't love my home town, but that's a different story about people and not climate. I don't live there any more so it doesn't matter, anyway.
Oh, I LOVE your work, Auburn! I read Bad Wigs a few months ago and just ADORED it, but I feel as though I've missed a few things in between. Was there another one after Sydney and Sark were trapped in the closet? I've read the ones in your memories, but it still seems as though I'm not getting the big picture. Am I missing stuff or is that intentional? If it is, that's just fine - but if you can direct me to the right place if I HAVE missed anything, I'd be eternally grateful. You absolutely crack me up. I loved this, from the first (I think!) story in your memories:
From Sloane's office came a moan.
Sark blinked at her innocently. "Someone spiked it."
Sydney crossed her arms and kept glaring. "Someone, Sark?"
He smiled a little boy smile at her. "Okay, I did."
I just LOVE that - I get such a great mental picture from it!
Think I need to friend you, my dear - you've got it going ON! :-D
Thank you. This is going to be the exclusive venue for Bad Wigs from now on. The original story is at various archives, but you might have read it before I updated it with the so-called ending. I think it had about four parts and the last one didn't go up for a very long time.
The whole thing is here, if you want to check and see what happened after the closet. You may have been fooled though, by the fact that Bad Wigs has a very abrupt ending, because at the time I was sincerely sick of it.
I'm curious - how did you find the latest story? It doesn't really matter, it's public, I just like to know.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have a feeling that the abrupt end may just be all there was, but I'm going to check it out anyway.
Crap, I can't remember whose LJ I saw it on...someone said we HAD to go read The Lisp, right away...so, I duly did. Was it eretria, or redrover1980...I can't remember. I'll get back to you when I go right now and look in my flist!
It was one of my newest friends, sarkastic! *waves* I'm SO glad she put the pressure on about it, because I just had an absolute ball reading it and I am now going to see about recon regarding the rest of it.
And, yeah, I love Weiss too - so that's always a bonus. Priceless. :-D
"If it doesn't, I'll have to shoot somebody and you'll have to explain why I was here - with you."
Bad, bad Auburn. *snerk* This warped little universe of yours is just too funny. And then you have to go and put in charming bits like Sark pondering The Curse and deciding the hell with it anyway. A perfectly hysterical adorable story. *g*
Sparky just took over the end of the story. Here I was going to write a little smutty polyfic and he had an attack of angst, insisted he was still in control of himself (though Weiss is hot, for a guy, he admits) and realized he has feelings for Sydney.
Perhaps the The Curse will play a part in whatever I write next. *eg*
Aww, Sparky. You know I have this flash of a little tow-headed kid pouring orange juice all over his sister's music box every time you call him that. Hee!
You probably don't know this, but this is one of my favorite universes of all time. This and fuzzy_ears's An Occasional Wrench have the tone that I wish I could see from Sarkney most of the time. It makes me jump up and down and giggle and squee and clap my hands because it's just so damn adorable! I've not yet figured out how to write it without it getting out of character, though, which is why I admire the hell out of people who can do it, and idolize the ones who do it well. Needless to say, you're one of the last ones. I am in terrible, terrible love with this universe. *fangirls you*
And if I didn't, like, worship you for how good this story is, I'd be worshipping you for giving me the mental image of Sark in horn-rimmed glasses. *sigh* And hee. Lithp. Fantastic, Auburn.
The horn-rims were my idea. That slightly intellectual/geeky look can just sizzle my blood on the right guy. Conversely, Facade's Vaughn in disguise left me going, 'Meh.'
The lisp was eretria's request after I promised to be her fic writing slut for favors received.
Bad Wigs seems to be the bunny that will not die. Every time I think I've put it down, it pops back up with some new twist. I've given up and accepted that eventually, there will be more.
Good! It's something that the world needs more of, I think. There's not nearly enough fluffy Sarkney in the world, especially well-written. I can't wait to read more, when it does eventually come.
I agree about the intellectual/geeky thing. But definite 'meh' to Vaughn's disguise. The bumbling professor has never been one of my kinks. (However, the same glasses on Ryan Phillippe in Cruel Intentions made me into a puddle. Is that strange?)
redrover1980 linked to your fic and I loved it. I went back and read the two you linked to in your memories. Are there any more? I'm not great with detailed comments, but I loved the situation, the characterization and the sense of fun. Thanks.
Thank you. There's the original story that started the insanity way back when, Bad Wigs, Black Leather, and Guns, if you haven't read that. That's it though, everything else I write should carry an angst warning. Some of isn't even Sarkney. All the fics at Allusions if you ever want to wallow in the slough of despond, though.

Some of those alternates would be more interesting and enjoyable (for me) to write about than anything based on this season.
Maybe the one where Sark was the SD-6 double and Sydney was raised by Irina. That had Sarkney potential.
