Procrastination
What should I be doing right now? Why, writing a paper! What am I doing right now? Trying to decide which of my seven stalled stories to work on. Nothing's jumping out at me, so, stolen from lls_mutant

Oh, he could stay in the Battlestar scripts if he wanted, but there were too many painful reminders of everyone who had died. Generics were in all the roles, and Felix thanked the gods that nobody actually bothered to read the scripts once the show aired. That was the thing about being a television character- once your Outland actor had gotten the scene on film, that would be forever the way the Outland saw you, so if chaos hit an old script, very few Outlanders would ever be the wiser.
Of course, this wasn't always to a character's advantage, but Battlestar had been fortunate enough to have an excellent cast. Not everyone had been so lucky- the new Star Wars movies, for example.
Felix pushed that thought away. It wasn't his problem anymore. His problem now was where did he want to go? Lost had been paradise in the few hours before the ( ... )

"It's..."
"Isn't it perfect?"
"I was going to say... odd."
Felix looked at Louis, who was taking in his surroundings with an edge of unease. "Don't you like it?"

He moved into Seusville! Love it so much! Thank you!
The parts about Lost, Star Wars, and Twilight made me smile.
The thought of him wandering around with all the furry critters just gives me so much enjoyment. I will now picture all my favorite childhood characters walking around muttering "frak." . . . . o_O Okay, maybe not my brightest move; my twisted mind skipped immediately to a very bad "Green Eggs and Ham" adaptation.

And yes, the idea of Felix Gaeta, Colonial tactics officer, wandering around Nool (spelling?) cracked. me. up. Oh, Jasper Fforde, what a brilliant man you are for creating a world in which this is possible.

See, just because YOU shut up doesn't mean my brain did. You have only yourself to blame for this.
"Would you, could you, in a bed? Would you, could you give me-"
"Louis! This is a children's book!"

"I thought not. Anyway, I'm having fun with this rhyming thing."
"I told you you'd like it here."
"So, would you do it 'neath a tree? Would you, could you, by the sea?"
"I would do you in a boat, I would, I could, beside a moat."
"Would you do it in a car? Could you do it in a bar?"
"I would do you in a chair, I would frak you anywhere."
