Finally, someone who speaks English.

Working on my trifecta of chores today. Laundry's done, cleaning's done, cooking... could go either way at this point. We'll see. It's looking like it might rain, and I have to do a quick Safeway run if I'm going to cook...

Had my younger brother's college graduation dinner last night, which was nice. I tried roasted bone marrow! I was looking at the restaurant's menu online the day before and I saw a dish that came with bone marrow and I thought, "Well, Anthony Bourdain seems to like it, I wanna take a shot!" Here's what it looked like, just like on TV:



It was.. okay I guess. There really wasn't much to it, maybe a spoonful, the spoon being super tiny. I kept poking at bits of it, trying to see if any more was edible. It tasted mostly like the fat on a steak, but a little different. Overall, I probably won't go out of my way for it again.

Otherwise, let's see... The Avengers, aw yeah. Basically everything a dork like me could ask for, plus a surprise Tony/Bruce bonus. Those two... I got serious feels for them, you guys. Did not expect that. I mean, just look, and look, and look. I feel guilty, because Pepper's awesome and she's adorable with Tony, but...

I'm nervous about the OUaT finale. Please don't suck, show. You can... yes, okay, yes, you can Joss all my fic that is, was, or ever could be. Just don't suck while you do it, all right?

In conclusion, I totally meant to go see Dark Shadows this weekend. Oops. Maybe I'll go Wednesday. Wednesday's a nice day to do fun stuff- it really livens up the week.

Oh! The fic-writing meme! Almost forgot. Okay, we have got: 7 – Have you ever had a fic change your opinion of a character?

Umm, I liked Emma a lot more after I finished Stories, in the End. I hadn't quite noticed how sassy she can be. Other than that... I dunno, it's hard to remember. I think maybe my soft spot for Noah Bennet grew after writing him a few times.

The Avengers owns my soul right now. While I'm mostly shipping Tony/Steve, the Bruce/Tony wacked me upside the head and did a dance. Out of many brilliant character dynamics in this movie, this one is my favorite. Tony is so happy to finally find someone who he can have a scientific conversation with and they are cute together, and then Bruce snatched Tony from the air while he's freefalling. *collapsed under the feels*

I was totally prepared to hop on the Tony/Steve wagon! I've read enough fic! But... Tony/Bruce... they get each other, and Bruce so needs someone who gets him, who isn't scared, who makes him smile, who can match his scientific curiosity. Nnng!

Beyond the Pepper issue, I also feel guilty because everyone is all "Tony/Bruce is such a bromance, they're bros, SCIENCE BROS!" and I feel like the dirty slasher who wants to see them get it on too. Alas!

This is one of those rare fandoms where I'm shipping more than one or two pairings, most of which feature Tony, which doesn't surprise me at all.

Tony would make Bruce so happy. Well, maybe not normal people, since he has those anger management issues, but definitely not totally miserable all the time.

Don't feel guilty. I thoroughly enjoy the Pepper/Tony on-screen, even if I then ship him with everybody else in fandom. About Bruce/Tony, that is true. I fangirl over them both ways, but they would make such a beautiful couple. But there's fic around, so we're definitely not alone.
