This is a quick but very important update on my initial post here.

Jared and Jeffrey, sittin' in a tree...

SLO-MO GIF FOR THE FRIGGIN' WIN!!!

Snaggled it from alexisjane who grabbed it from septembers_coda who ganked it from vyperdd... (I love my fandom!)

(Seriously, they can't tell me it was an accident. I mean, they say it was. I just refuse to accept it. *adjusts tin hat*)

Seriously, they're making it sooo easy for us pervs fans!

Which is why we celebrate with...



Come and play! I've got drabbles brewing in my noggin'... (if only I didn't have that stupid deadline for the WC BB breathing down my neck! *despairs*)

The fandom stockings have been revealed, and I've spent today perusing the fillers people left in my stocking.

I may have hurt myself flailing. :D

Do yourself a favor and take a peek at all the goodies!

There are a whole bunch of awesome kitteh icons (yes, I'll happily share, and ZOMG I can't decide which ones to pick!), absolutely mouth-watering recipes, art and ficcage!

As far as stories go, all I can say is, my buttons were pushed. HARD. (Spankies! And Adler/Neal dub-con! \o/)

And I know it's not really fair to single out a specific stocking filler, but I do need to share this particular art because ZOMG PLOTBUNNY BITE!!! (click for full size)





Damn you, kanarek13! DAMN YOU!!! LOL!

Thank you so very much, everyone who was nice and generous enough to fill my stocking! *feels very loved*

Most of you will probably be surprised that I'm posting something Supernatural-related (well, kinda sorta) but hey, I like(d) the show a lot, J2 are adorkable and cute, and even though I'm not a fan of Cas, I ♥ Misha Collins for being, well, Misha Collins.

So I knew he'd do something awesometastic when he was challenged to do the Ice Bucket Challenge. And boy, did he deliver!



And my lovable big moose did his share as well. :D



Hee!!! Ice in the crotch!

Love that Jensen did the honor. Though he looked entirely too pleased with himself. That evil chuckle! He had way too much fun dumping that ice water on Jared. I so cannot wait to see him getting drenched!

(On a somewhat related note: why hasn't Zachary Quinto done the challenge yet?! Matty nominated him. *grumbles*)

kanarek13 is the most brilliant artist I know (and we have some amazing artists in our midst!) and I love, love, love her artwork. Always have, always will.

kanarek13 is also one of the most generous, wonderful people I've ever been lucky enough to meet (even if it's only been online...for now!).

I thought I couldn't adore her any more...and then she goes and sends me this:



(click on the masterpiece for the full-sized version)

She created this cover art for my silly little story The Little Merman. I'm completely blown away by the art, and it makes my fic a million times better (the visual! GUH!).

THANK YOU, my dearest Kanarek, for making this for me and giving it to me so generously.  I ♥ you so much!!!

This is just stunningly gorgeous!

(and the view of Manhattan ain't bad either...*g*)

Clicken to embiggen!

As usual, elrhiarhodan proves to be awesome because she's hosting this:



I wish I had the time to really spam participate in the meme, but I'm way behind on getting my Ficmas stories ready, so... I'll just point you in the right direction and hope you'll all share the WC lurve!

I won second place in the first round of whitecollarlas. Go me! That means I get to spend a weekend with Neal, right? Right??? *checks rules*

I'll post my fic "The Promise" officially in a li'l while. ETA: Officially posted! In the meantime, I'd be curious to hear if anyone thought that this was my story or not. (A couple folks mentioned they weren't sure but thought one or two of them could have been mine. I'm wondering which stories they were and how good I am at disguising my writing style! LOL)

Huge thanks goes to cookielaura for being an awesometastic organizer! Looking forward to the second round! (There will be a second round, right?!)

Because of reasons.

Or, actually, one specific reason:



Actually, I'm one of two winners, but Neal still thinks it's a good excuse to do a happy dance. *smishes him* Considering the fact that I was convinced I'd be voted off, this is pretty awesometastic and made my day. :D :D :D
