Bored now. Somebody amuse me, dammit! *pokes friendslist* I want to talk about writing and shit!

You doing NaNoWriMo?

*pokes back*

The accounting system is down again at work, so I'm sitting here twiddling my thumbs.

What particular subject of amusement do you wish to discuss? *g*

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

indeed I am. I'm having conniptions trying to figure out what I want to write, though. Feh.

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

I'm multitasking as usual. :D

I dunno. Do you want to talk original fic and/or NaNo, or would you prefer to just hit me over the head until I get an idea for my Londothon assignment?

[wibbble]

You could write about what might happen if a dirty nuke, or a bio/chemical attack, were to happen in Edinburgh.

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

No, that's my last resort if I get stuck for an ending. Nuke falls, everyone dies. :D

[wibbble]

*laughs*

Besides, my mummy says I'm not allowed to play with postapocalyptic 'verses anymore. She says it's bad for my brain.

[wibbble]

That's hardly post-apocalyptic. There's a new series of 'Spooks' starting next week. I have series two on my computer, and one of the episodes deals with that sort of thing.

There's been a lot of discussion lately about it. If a dirty nuke went off, very few people would actually be killed. It's the ultimate in terror weapons, though. Lots of fear, very little actual damage.

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

Well, semi-autobiographical. Something about a writer suffering writer's block or something, just to be ironical. Though I may make it into something vaguely ghost story-ish, something about family history or something. Lord knows with the year my family's had, I have enough inspiration there.

::pokes back::

Write about a tortured artist; they're always good for a laugh :)

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

Funnily enough, that is one of the potential bunnies for NaNo! :D

You're clearly psychic!

[wimmeke.livejournal.com]

Ah yes, nanowrimo, signups should be open by now. I'm so in and you better not sue me for pursuing 'dawn of the christ' ;-)

Just crediting you as my source of the idea should give me about 100 words ;-)

Er...

[/ignorant]

As for the Londothon, I can hit you over the head, or I can suggest you nab the following two episodes from your friends:

A Voice in the Wilderness, I & II
Knives

Once you've re-watched these episodes, send me an email and we'll brainstorm. *g*

I had to think about this carefully, so as not to blatantly reveal to the public what your assignment is. ;)

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

National Novel Writing Month. :)

I think I need to possibly re-watch all the episodes, at least at some point soon. But definitely those two, yes. And careful with e-mail invitations, I tend to blather. :D You may find yourself on the receivin end of post-WWE blather or something once I start re-watching all the eps.

[hobsonphile.livejournal.com]

There can never be too much post-WWE blather. ;)

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but my post-WWE blather is along the lines of "Aga. Buh. Weh? Wah!" Which really doesn't contribute much, I don't think. :D

[hobsonphile.livejournal.com]

Great Maker! I just followed your link. *boggle* Am I brave enough to even consider attempting that?

Also: Snee. Yes, WWE is one of those total mind frells.

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

Yes, you are! *encourages*

Yeah, that was one of the last eps I saw with my friends, and I just sat around going "Bwuh?" for a while after THat Scene. I don't think I saw much of the rest of that ep, come to think of it. (Sinclair who?)

[hobsonphile.livejournal.com]

"Are you there, my old friend?"

*sound of universe as we know it imploding*

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

Yeah, if you heard this vague imploding sound some time late August, that would've been me watching WWE. And dude, then there was that whole "Where he goes, I go" thing, which really, not the kind of thing to inflict on a girl whose Bible OTP is Ruth/Naomi because SO ROMANTIC and OMG and hey ... what ... AU bunnies ... noooo! (NO YOU ARE NOT FEASIBLE GO AWAY AAAAA STOP BITING!)

[hobsonphile.livejournal.com]

*feeds bunnies carrots*

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

EVIL! (Londo and G'Kar' on Road Trip = ACK!)

[hobsonphile.livejournal.com]

fic_pensieve sounds like a good place for you. *g*

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

*joins* (Must remember to post this bunny tomorrow.)

Don't know if I have all that many fandoms in common with the rest of the members, though. :D

[hobsonphile.livejournal.com]

We are the few, the proud, the...

Anyhow, the community isn't garnering a lot of attention, but I think it's a good idea, damn it! And not just because a friend and I thought of it. *g*

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

It is a good idea! :D

[hobsonphile.livejournal.com]

Londo and G'Kar on a roadtrip sounds like my Lennier and Vir go to Disneyworld idea. *g*

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

... I'll write mine if you write yours?

(Dammit, stoppit with the icon! Must not speculate on who would wear white in that wedding ...)

[hobsonphile.livejournal.com]

*points to icon* *teases*

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

Dammit! (It'll have to be Londo. G'Kar will find a way to smother me in my sleep if I put him in a dress.)

[hobsonphile.livejournal.com]

Then again, Londo has a talent for selecting dandy little poisons. ;)

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

I am so dead. *hides*

(Lennier and Vir at Disneyland yay!)

[hobsonphile.livejournal.com]

Seriously, wouldn't that be the cutest thing? Lennier would be all analytical and scholarly and puzzling over the cultural significance of Mickey Mouse, while Vir would be all, "Cool! A space ship ride!"

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

Heee! And Vir would drag poor Lennier all over the place and force him to get his pisture taken with Goofy, and stuff!

[hobsonphile.livejournal.com]

OMG, Vir so would! *g*

EVIL! I'm definitely going to have to file that with the Cartagia-comes-back-as-spoo idea...

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

Okay, clearly it's time for bed because I read that as "Cartagia-comes-back-as-a-spoon" and yeah.

("Soylent spoo is Emperors"?)

[hobsonphile.livejournal.com]

It's a Terry Pratchett-inspired idea. *g*

Yes, go to bed before this gets completely out of hand. Oh, wait... *g*

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

Please don't use phrases like "out of hand" in connection with spoo? My brain is bad enough as it is.

[hobsonphile.livejournal.com]

*cackle*

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

EVIL I SAY.

(Help, my brain is in the gutter and I can't get it out!)
