SET FIIIIRE TO THE RAAAAIN
1. A DRAFT A DRAFT I FINISHED A FUCKING DRAFT. It is 32,000 goddamn words long. I ... am not quite sure what to do with myself while it is with the betas, but I am fairly sure the answer is "Be a productive member of society," not "Write Sif/Darcy fic."
2. There is apparently a wine that tastes like red velvet cupcakes? I am not at all sure how anyone has managed to create such a thing, but it does exist, and it is delightful. Alas I do not have proper red velvet cupcakes to eat while I drink it, but I am fairly sure I will be able to survive this sad lack.
3. Vid recs!
a. Set Fire to the Rain, a Thor/Loki vid that makes me laugh a lot but also gives me FEEEELINGS, because I am ridiculous. You should watch it because it is the most happy-making thing possible.
b. Along with the rest of my rlist, I am here to tell you to run, not walk, to watch The Price and to read the accompanying meta about manpain. I actually like the meta more than the vid, if only because it makes me think about things in depth rather than just wanting to PUNCH THE SCREEN. But the vid is also excellent, and a bit hilarious at the end.

The thing I found most fascinating about watching The Price is that I found myself getting teary-eyed while watching it, just as I would if I were watching some of those scenes in their original contexts -- even divorced, and put into an extremely meta-y vid like this, I'm still so conditioned to respond to that manpain. Because they're in pain! And I feel sad for them! Even WHILE I am rolling my eyes at the ridiculousness! Yeah, so that was disconcerting to discover.

Ohhh, wow, that is interesting! I didn't have that reaction, actually -- I mostly wanted to shake the screen. I think I was saved by the fact that I am so, so over Ten's manpain that it sort of colored everything else.

Oh, I wanted to shake the screen AT THE SAME TIME that I was getting teary-eyed! But then I am a person who cries pretty easily, and at times that do not entirely merit that much of an emotional reaction, and this tendency is something that I'm pretty sure is worse since I had that concussion. So that's probably a large part of it. But still! Even though it was an involuntary bodily reaction, that involuntary bodily reaction was still obviously affected by the pathos of the manpain. *sigh*
