(and have picked up a few stalkers on the way, alamo_girl80 ),

Huh? Moi? Stalk? Never. But I do know where you live. *teeheee*

She Whose Bad Guys Scare the CRAP Out of Me. For Serious: alamo_girl80
--Special Party Hat for being the freaking funniest beta EVAR, for not killing me for my overuse of the word 'brunette' and for making me generally squee like there is no tomorrow.

Aww. Omith and I thank you. Can't think of some of my more funnier moments in betas, cept for the Evian "They have good bottled water there, eh?" -snark...and of course, Clairol. Seriously, I can't think of some of the ones that had you falling off the couch. Hmmm....

But the beta "ha's" go both ways dearie. Sometimes you make me laugh so hard I can't figure out how to fix the damn sentence to make it right. Hee!

HUGE Ditto on chichuri. Holy GOD I fangirl her like whoa.

And I LURVED "Tells" by chibi_kaz. I totally ganked that story off your Pit faves ( ... )

Yes, you do know where I live. Which would be kind of concerning if it didn't potentially lead to TEH AWESOME DC VISIT OF TEH CENTURY.

My favorite beta of all time (and I can't believe you forgot it!): "Hey, you GUYS!" Which is so going in the SOB, it's not even funny.

guin_ramble wrote "Missing Moments". I can't believe I forgot that one. *facepalm*

Oh Oh Oh...how could I forget "Hey You Guys!" Especially since it lead to teh icon of lurve. *facepalm*

Dude. guin_ramble, I need to friend her. Because if she writes any more smex like that and I miss it, I'm gonna be pissed. Just read "And No Birds Sing" by kseda. Dude. Whoa. How do I keep missing this good shit?

I aslo need to do my TM author appreciation. Yeesh. Maybe I have time before I leave work...

Enh, it's okay. You had a tough day. Or something.

Isn't "And No Birds Sing" made of WIN?! I flipped out the first time I read it, and it just gets better with each reread.

You don't need to do the TM author appreciation. We all know I'm your favorite. 'Nuff said. Hee.

Aw...I love being the Master of Flangst! Now if I could only finish my new flangsty fic we'd all be mucho happier.

You ARE the master of the flangst, my darling--I didn't even know how hard the idea could be rocked 'till you came along. You put my flangst to shame. For serious.

Yeah, well, I'll race you--which "S" titled fic will be finished first? I'm thinking yours, quite honestly.

bee_1103 August 15 2008, 21:36:11 UTC
It's just 'cause your flangst has an greater angst to fluff ratio. So yours is more like flANGST. And mines like FLangst. Lol.

And I don't know. 'Stonewall' at least has seven chapters done. 'Synchronicity' only has four and a smidgen of five. I'd say yours.

Hee, I like that explanation. So that means you and me are like a perfect pair, right? Totally.

I may have seven chapters done, but Charlie is now completely obsessed with these damn 50 sentences thing, so I think my plan of forcing him to sit down and start on eight this weekend just got PWNed. So I think you may take this one.

I would stalk you but the lack of money is preventing the stalkage.

Thank you so much sweetheart!

You were the one who brought up the idea of keeeeeeling Jeb, I just...over enthusiastically supported the idea and made sure you did it. You know, the problem with the SOB may be that you're not talking to me. But then again, I may convince you to do a Hamlet and kill everyone off in the end. So maybe it is a good idea that you're not going "Statler, heeeeeelp me!"

I think it's not necessarily a character flaw of mine but I need to be able to picture people in my head when I read about them and thus have to pick out people who represent them. Which is why when I'm filling out apps for RPGs, I need to find the PB first.

Speaking of next!gen casting, I have a gnawing nibbling bunneh about that fic I wrote with Emily.

That's okay that you can't stalk me like that crazy old alamo_gir80. Just save your money and come stalk me in DC when she does, because, ZOMG, made of AWESOME.

Hm, maybe the problem with the SOB is that I'm not sending it your way. You want 'em? I'll send 'em. And damn it if that Hamlet idea isn't made of cool...

Oh, no, I don't think having a physical picture of a characer in your head isn't a bad thing at all. In fact, it's helped me quite a bit, which is why I thanked you in the post for it.

GNAW, BUNNEH, GNAW! Um, what? I didn't say anything. Why are you looking at me like that?

Let me know the time and the date and I'll make sure to pick up mucho hours at work before the flying in and we'll go from there. Also, I sent you a pic text. I couldn't resist.

Hit me up with the issues you're having and I'll see what I can do. You know how that works from previous experience. If you didn't, I'd direct you to caroly_214.

*nods*

EFFIE!!!
