Project updates

I finished my Angel/Lindsey vid last night. I'm not especially happy with some of it, so I need to spend some time reworking parts, but I like some of it, so hopefully I will be able to post that soon. The more time I spend on it, the more mystified I am that a) there is not more Angel/Lindsey slashing going on, and b) anyone can actually say with a straight face that Angel was not a homoerotic show. I mean... just this clip with Lindsey, in You're Welcome, confronting Angel with his sword, and all Lindsey has is a little knife, and he holds it down by his... hip, yeah, his hip, and it magically... er, lengthens. Into a sword. Uh-huh. Yup, this is as straight as a series could be. No homoerotic metaphors here, no sir. This has been a hard vid to make but also fun, just to see how much those two want each other.

Also, I would adore an Angel/Lindsey icon, but I have never seen one on Buffy icons, ever. Anyone know of a place to get one?

The Mag 7 cave/cabin in the woods story is at the beta, and I hope to get it back this weekend. I want to continue to tweak it, but that may also be ready soon. Measure ch. 10 is taking a little bit longer because I have some stupid plot holes that I wrote myself into and need to figure out how to fix.

For the past ... well, many years, I've posted stories on my birthday just because I always thought it was a fun thing to do, and I usually had a story around that time. I don't have the energy or emotional stability this year to do much besides weep on that day, so no story this year for those of you who know about my little tradition. The Mag 7 coming soon will have to suffice.

I hope people on my flist will post their holiday wishes via that meme that went around last year. Then I wasn't able to do much to grant any, but this year I probably can and I want to see what it is that people want!

Oh, absolutely. It's not actually his death that kills it for me, but rather that I really got the sense in You're Welcome and the eps that followed that Angel is over it. You know what I mean? He's always found Lindsey fun to torment, but the tension had all gone out of it for me by the end of YW, and I just had the impression that Angel was done. But that is completely subjective, of course. It's just how I read things. Totally with you on the "not the ending ending," though. If anyone has nine lives, it's Lindsey.

I had a similar problem with The Sentinel. By the 4th season, I just had the feeling that if they were ever going to get together, they would have by then, and it was obvious it had never happened. But I fully respect a different view. :-)

AAAuuuuhhhh now I'm all depressed! You're right, I mean, I guess Angel probably is over it. Crap. Now I'm all bummed because OMG their lovehate was so pure.
