Come again another day.

Meanwhile, last night, instead of doing what I was supposed to do, I plotted a Foreman/Cuddy fic in my head where Foreman wants to know if Cuddy has ever been a man (there was a![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
foreman_fest prompt like that). I didn't actually get around to the Foreman/Cuddy part, but it was fun. Yes, I know I have a fic to finish and the cuddy_fest deadline is technically over. Shut up.

If there's one thing Governor Cameron has taught his daughter Allison to do, it's to hold her head high. No matter what the circumstances.
She holds it high now, defiant and dignified, as she balances on the edge of the pitching ship's deck. She does her best to ignore the wretched man waving the cutlass around in her face, although she does manage to notice that he clutches a cane to steady himself on his wooden leg. If she kicks it out from under him, he'll topple right off the side of the deck and plunge into the sea. It's tempting, except that alas, she's far too kind to do such a thing. Even a ruffian pirate with a scraggly growth of beard and a suspicious scent of rum on his breath deserves compassion, after all. He probably grew up in poverty, she imagines, his mother an alcoholic barmaid and his father a brutish laborer. He turned to a life of crime after his leg was mangled by a carriage as he begged as a child on the streets, or no, maybe in the war, fighting valiantly but ultimately succumbing to gangrene because of the buckshot he took to save the life of his commanding officer. Yes, she likes that version better. A poor, forgotten veteran, fallen on hard times. So tragic, really!
The Pirate Queen and the Governor's Daughter WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? Go read!
Come again another day.
SOME COFFEE WOULD BE NICE.
Or alcohol! But that would make me sleepier, so no. No alcohol now.
Mmm coffee.*

Mar. 3rd, 2006 11:23 pm* Right now, I have with me Going Postal and Wicked. jaybee65, I'll tell you what I think as soon as I can get my hands on it (the Sister says: 'Wow. It's like, a book about the Wicked Witch of West!').
* I have been reading rather a lot of Pratchett lately. This makes me happy.
* I wish RL would stop being so depressing. I don't foresee that happening in the near future, though.
* I do, however, foresee a lot of Pratchett-related babbling in this journal in the near future.
* I amused myself in the bookstore by looking at the tie-in novels from various tv shows. There were a couple on Lost, both featuring OCs. The best one, however, was the sole Buffy novel. The blurb went something like this:
Spike has fallen, so has the Rogue slayer, Faith. Buffy is all alone and Sunnydale is ruled by vampires.
Rupert Giles is Vampire King.
The photo of Giles on the cover, however, was rather fetching.
* There were also Angel comics. With a number of photos of DB in them. *dies*
* Rome continues to rock my socks.
* I saw House. Hugh Laurie is disturbingly hot. I don't generally enjoy medical shows (because of the very annoying patient-doctor interactions. you know, the parts were the patient lectures the doctor and gives him Will to Live etc. there was some of it in this ep as well), but considering how much time I spent today thinking about people I'd ship House with (Wilson. because they are so married. Cuddy. the snark. *and* she's his boss) and laughing over lines like "Oxygen is so important during those pre-pubescent years, don't you think?", I'll probably watch some more of this show.
* I have a new moodtheme, courtesya_girl_icons. There isn't enough Edie in it, but I love it all the same.
