The Blanket Fort

There's been a lot of Srsly Whack RL things that has happened to me last week but that requires a little more careful thought and time than I have at the present. And I will write about those, because they're memories that are both good and bad and deserve to be recorded.

However, in the meantime.... I'd like a little escapism from the Occasional Craptasticness of my Real Life and write about this for the moment...

( Going back to meet some very old friends... )

Boys,

I do NOT want to watch the last episode of Sherlock Season 2 just yet because I will SCREAM over the cliffhanger and CRY buckets at the ending.  

Yes, John, of course your Sherlock's an insufferable prat and if you want to go to Hawaii to visit the H50 ohana, you know you got an open invite.  I know you and Steve were Besties in the Classified Way Back When.

Besties, right? 

RIGHT, JOHN HAMISH WATSON? 

STEVEN JOHN MCGARRETT, WHY IN THE NAME OF ALL THAT IS HOLY ARE YOU BLUSHING? 

EXACTLY WHAT SORT OF SHENANIGANS WERE YOU TWO UP TO IN THE 'STAN? 

*facepalms*

I have to write this story, right guys? 

No Love,

Me

****

This grew out of a chat with my BFF Katz, who pointed out that I was neglecting my H50 Muses....  'Cos I said, that Steve and John were Besties (oh gawd, I hope they were just BESTIES) and realized, SOMEBODY of the Tall, Pale and Insufferably Snarky Persuasion was gonna get all hissy-fitted up about it!


"Well, it isn't me," Danny huffs.  "Any idiot can tell that Super-SEAL here and Doctor Who are BFFs from the Classified Way Back When.  And I like him."

"Danny," Steve said with an evil grin.  "I ever told you John's got sniper-class shooting skills? When I said he saved my ass back in the 'Stan, it wasn't because of his doctoring skills."

Danny facepalms.  "Oh God. Here we go..."

John is still reeling from the new nickname.  "Doctor...Who?"

Danny blushes.  "Yeah.  I got hooked into it.  My daughter loves that show."

"Man and here I was hoping we'd get a threesome," Kono said with an entirely too wicked-glint in her eyes.

Chin splutters. " 'Cuz!"

"Aw, come on, 'cuz, a girl can dream, can't she?"

John deadpans, "It'd serve that sodding git right, not that he'd see through us all in 30 seconds...."

**************** I'm so doomed, aren't I? **************************

I am giddy, of course, over my brand-spanking shiny new fandom (yes, I know I'm late to the party, don't rub it in....)

So RECS? SHERLOCK BBC RECS PLZ?  Pretty pretty please with John's stripey sweaters and Sherlock's Jaguar Hiding in a Cello voice on top? 

Would love some good John/Sherlock fics, fic communities to watch (already found one) and join.... hit me with 'em!

Wheeeeeee........

Excuse the excessive use of caps lock

BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, I HEARD THAT SHERLOCK BBC WAS ALL TEN THOUSAND KINDS OF AWESOME AND ADORABLE. AND I KNEW THE HOBBIT MOVIE HAS THE SHERLOCK BOYS INNIT SO NOW I HAD TO GIVE THE SHOW A WATCH, RIGHT? 

AND OMG BENEDICT TIMOTHY CARLTON CUMBERBATCH AND ADORABLE HEDGEHOG MARTIN FREEMAN ARE LIKE SO, SO MARRIED FROM THE GET-GO, THAT EVEN IRENE FUCKIN' ADLER SITS UP AND TAKE NOTICE.

AND HAMISH, MY GAWD, HAMISH, I ASK YOU.

AND THAT VOICE, BENNY, THANK YOU FOR SITTING RIGHT NEXT TO ALAN RICKMAN WITH THAT VOICE.

AND SO I NEED TO BE WRITING HOBBIT/SHERLOCK FAN FICTION TO INFINITY, RIGHT? BECAUSE SMAUG-LOCK AND JOHN-BO NEED TO BE SOLVING CASES AROUND MIDDLE EARTH AND RAISING JOHN-BO'S ADORABLE LITTLE COUSIN FRODO AND GANDALF WILL BE ALL OMGWTF DRAGONS IN THE SHIRE AND WILL BE ALL HAPPY AND ELROND WILL FACEPALM TO INFINITY BUT YOU KNOW, DRAGONS IN THE SHIRE AND IN RIVENDELL BECAUSE SOMEBODY HAS TO HELP STOP THE EVIL MACHINATIONS OF MORIARTY THE WITCH KING OF ANGMAR WHO WANTS THE HEIR OF ISILDUR DEAD, Y/Y?

AND MAYBE WRITE A SHERLOCK/HAWAII FIVE-0 CROSSOVER WHERE JOHN IS A BAMF AND STEVE WUVS HIM MUCHLY 'COS THEY ARE BESTIES FROM THE CLASSIFIED WAY BACK WHEN AND SHERLOCK WILL BE TICKED OFF 'COS STEVE IS ALL GQ BUT DOES NOT REALIZE THAT JOHN AND STEVE ARE JUST BESTIES AND DON'T LOOK AT EACH OTHER IN "THAT" WAY AND SO WILL DANNY AND THERE WILL BE MUCH FLAILING GLEE FROM KONO AND CHIN WILL BE BUSY FACEPALMING FOREVER.

'COS SHERLOCK OTTER AND JOHN WATSON HEDGEHOG ARE LOVE.

*DIES NAO*

"Could Lola Tasya Possibly be the Grand Duchess Anastasia?"

Found this article over at the Philippine Daily Inquirer online website. 

It makes for interesting reading.  This writer's recollections of her lost grandmother almost sound like a novel and my imagination is caught, providing, of course, that this isn't just the best con job of all time.  And we all know it's been tried before.

Still, there is something sweet and sad about "Lola Tasya" - her memories of her four sisters and younger brother, the little details she gave away growing up in what definitely points to an aristocratic and privileged upbringing.  And it's fantastic that it coincidentally resembles what we know of the life of Anastasia Romanov. 

We all know that the story of Grand Duchess Anastasia Romanov and whether or not she survived the massacre of her family by the Bolsheviks is a topic that has been hotly debated for decades.  We have had one "conclusive DNA test" after another.  Still, the questions this article raises are interesting, whether or not "Lola Tasya" is the Grand Duchess.  

Who was Lola Tasya?  What happened to her Russian family? Answering that alone could be a book in itself. :)

( LOL insert my two cents' theory here... )

Found this courtesy of alexoloughlinrocks.com who in turn got it from Just Jared.com

( All I can say is this... )Excuse me, I'll just go...uh.... pick up my poor Danny Muse off the floor. 

You guys realize this needs fic, right? 

Someone just asked me how I manage to stay so happy all the time.

( Trying to avoid stroking out before I'm even forty.... )I have to remind myself of that today, even when I feel like my heart's breaking.  Depression isn't going to do me any good.  And life is too good and too precious to waste on despair. 

There's always something better around the corner.  I believe that.  I really do. 

There is a really, really cute Steve/Danny chibi fan art that I really, REALLY, REALLY want to turn into a cross-stitch pattern and cross-stitch myself.

*pause*

Yes.  I cross stitch. 

*more pausing*

Yeah.  I really wanna do it.  Now I need to find a program that can help me reduce the thing into tiny colorful boxes that will have a code corresponding to a specific thread color.
