What's this? A meme? And not baby-related??

[hiyacynth]

liptonrm is doing this meme that looks fun. I feel like a bit of a fraud doing it because I haven't written anything since, like, 2008, but what the heck. My kid naps now! I can haz LJ a little more often!

Pick one of my fics, and I'll give you three details that didn't make it into the fic. Background canon, deleted scenes, or a look into the future. My

And apparently I can't not talk about the baby, in the end. Campbell plays peekaboo now! Cutest thing ever.

I WANT TO VISIT AGAIN AND PLAY WITH HIM OMG!

*ahem*

(yay napping!)

[hiyacynth]

Omg come back and play! He is seriously at a cuteness peak right now, between getting the sleep he needs and hitting a few developmental milestones. Truly a joy to be around.

How about Mockingbird? Because I have such a fondness for it, since you came up with so much of it on the weekend drives to our apartment, and because it is awesome. I would draw you a stick figure depicting this right now if I could.

Hi, Campbell, hi!!

[hiyacynth]

Okay, Mockingbird. This may take a bit because I have to think (a challenge in general) and also because you three were witness to so much of the discovery and development of the story that you may already know most of these details. But I will figure something out. I may ask you to help with a specific question at some point...

Campbell says hi back and he misses you and his toes are delightful and jammy!

Dude. LJ ate my Mockingbird icon. All those story posts have my baby head icon now! Wrong!

[hiyacynth]

All righty, then. Three things about Mockingbird

I hate when that happens - you can see something so clearly in your head but when you get to actually writing it, you realize it can't be done from the POV you are in. You know though, even when reading that scene with the phone call, I was able to fully visualize Sam's end of it as well - maybe because you wrote Sam's panic so well there. I could see him hunched over, puking and begging Dean and being all "vision-sick".

I actually knew that thing about the cats helping you with your writing!! Either you told me or J read me your LJ entry.

I did NOT know that you used action figures to help you write though!! This is a genius technique and I applaud you. I should use that sometimes. I get confused about who is standing where.

I actually always wondered if Mandy would consider an abortion, even though I figured in the end she wouldn't do it. I am jealous, I want Missouri to be my psychic nanny - nevermind that I am 33!

Dean and Sam go to visit for Birdie's third birthday, and Birdie greets Dean with a huge hug, and then by

Hallooooooooo! *squishes*

I got no meme-back for ya, just a drive-by hug and yays for Campbell cuteness. I was thinking about you as I listened to "Sean" the other day - that's probably pretty close to how you feel, isn't it?

[hiyacynth]

Hee! You are psychic. That song came up on my iPod the other day, and I got all teary.

I think I jinxed us saying "My kid naps now." He's on some kind of strike today. I finally managed to get him down after more than an hour of messing around. Ugh.

Hi sweetie! Thanks for the drive-by love!

[liptonrm]

First: I promise, cross my heart, that I am working on answers to the questions you left me. There's something a little special that I've been cooking up for it.

Second: Three things about Periphery, please. Or Occasion of Sin because I can't choose between them. Or one of one and two of the other? I love them both really, really a lot.

[hiyacynth]

OH HAI. I have been thinking about your request(s) and will serve up some combination of tidbits about these stories. Eagerly await your responses as well.

In other news, why the fuck won't my kid go to sleep?? Seriously, this is the third attempt at a second nap for the day, and he's not having it despite being in increasingly desperate need. It just makes me want to take several pint tubs of ice cream and eat them under a blanket somewhere.

[liptonrm]

Oh YAY. I am very excited to see the thinks you've been thinking.

Poor you. Poor Campbell. It's so hard to be a baby and not know exactly what he wants, only that he wants something. But how much more frustrating for you to know what he wants and not be able to provide him with it. I hope he finally got some sleep, you poor bunnies.

*sends all the hugs*

[hiyacynth]

I'm having such a hard time coming up with things that you guys don't know about these stories! I need to reread them and refresh my memory so I can do more than one, but in the meantime, here is one I know about "Occasions of Sin
