Miscellany

I am housesitting on the beach (I know, my life is so hard, feel sad for me) and taking care of a very sweet, pampered dog. So it's kind of my job for the moment to stay in one place and have no life. Internet is spotty so I'm mostly 1) bored, 2) reading everything on the bookshelves, and 3) walking the dog more than she probably needs.

'Why are you telling me this, you crazy person?' I hear you asking. Well, friend, I am telling you this because if there has ever, EVER been a time when I'm available to beta, it's now. Please feel free to send me things, whether I've previously beta'd for you or not and whether you know me personally or not. Ping me. Don't be shy. Save me from spending three weeks doing nothing but reading the complete works of Eugene O'Neill while petting a dog with my feet.

To The Lovely Lady To Whom I Already Owe A Read-Through On Multiple Stories (She Knows Who She Is): Haven't forgotten. They're upcoming. You are awesome.

Why are you so mean to me? Is it because of that weekend in Reno? IS IT?

We could continue this slightly upsetting photographic proof that he is indeed hiding a headhorn, but I don't wanna.

I'm troubled by the proliferation of Bobby & his hats in the comments to this entry. I need a stiff drink.

It could be a week. It could be two. I can't believe I'm going to write Uriel taking Castiel on dates.

I bet he's a real charmer. He's the funniest angel in the garrison, you know.

[identity profile] glovered.livejournal.com 2011-08-09 06:22 am (UTC)(link)
I'm totally working that in, btw, having Cas tell 'jokes' which fall flat, and Uriel thinking about how they could always decimate an entire city if the date gets boring.

Ahahahahahahaha, okay, now I'm imagining that even in the very different realm of Angel Humor, Castiel is completely humorless and capable of ruining a good punchline like no other, and Uriel just has to bemusedly tolerate it and pretend it's not awkward.
Is this their first date? If so, then they'd want to pick a small city, like Tulsa. Don't want to move too fast.

[identity profile] glovered.livejournal.com 2011-08-09 06:31 am (UTC)(link)
I feel like Cas is super funny, but not to humans, and in enochian possibly only to Balthazar. The rest of the angels don't waste time on such things.

As far as dating...I want one of their brothers to have set them up. Like, Gabriel or someone, because he took pity on them for being really zealous in their own special ways. God this is going to be awkward.

So two multidimensional wavelengths of celestial intent walk into a bar for a blind date, only it's not blind and they're brothers, sort of -- wait. I'm gonna start over again.

[identity profile] glovered.livejournal.com 2011-08-09 06:43 am (UTC)(link)
lol

Actually, yeah, maybe Cas learned his "you breed with the mouth of a goat" joke from Uriel, who he misses dearly. I want to incorporate this gif somehow, Uriel being "heaven" of course. Also Cas leaning over the table telling U, "My true form is approximately the size of the Chrysler building."

Ahahaha. This fic, like Cas's jokes, might fall incredibly flat, but thank you for the support!

If I finish my mini-bang - I'd love a first read/beta. I switched stories in mid-stream and I'm flailing a bit.

pre-series, though so I don't know how you feel about that

BONUS: Dean is giving Sam a hand massage! trufax! Dean thinks it's foreplay (because of Sam's 'o' face,) Sam thinks Dean's been cursed to treat him nicely, (but is totally willing to take advantage becasue Dean's massages are blissful!)

You got it! Let me know if I can assist on the flailing front in any way. Pre-series = yes, please.

Dean thinks it's foreplay (because of Sam's 'o' face,) Sam thinks Dean's been cursed to treat him nicely
This is amazing and needs to be a story. Dean's pulling out all the stops to woo Sam, and Sam's just like, "Damn, this is a persistent curse. Dean's gonna be so embarrassed when he's cured."

[identity profile] locknkey.livejournal.com 2011-08-12 07:46 pm (UTC)(link)
I sent you a file - and much thanks if you can help me beat it into shape. :)

"Damn, this is a persistent curse. Dean's gonna be so embarrassed when he's cured." Eventually Sam grabs a clue and calls Bobby, because curses should fade and Sam is getting uncomfortable (although he secretly likes it) with all the massages, steak dinners and this one time there was a stuffie sheep (like one he had as a kid) by his pillow. When Sam shares the details Bobby says, "You boys really are prettier than you are smart, ain't you idjut?" Sam pouts, starts to protest, but Bobby cuts him off. "I don't ever want to hear about any of this again and you owe me a fifth of Black label to bleach my brain with." Sam starts to question him, but Bobby cuts him off again, "Sam, use that big brain god gave you. This ain't no curse." And he hangs up.
