Last year at the beginning of the year, I went on a WiP binge and finished all old works in progress fics in a matter of two weeks. This time, I'm going to leave it up to you because I honestly have no gumption to finish my WiPs. So I'm going to give you a small excerpt from each, and you tell me which one you want me to work on, and I will try to finish them according to interest-level (or you guys pushing me since I have nothing to make me write them).
We will open the book. Its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called "Opportunity" and its first chapter is New Year's Day. Edith Lovejoy Pierce
I don't make resolutions because when I have before they've lasted all the time it took for me to forget them (not more than a day or two if memory serves) and this year is no exception. I will however continue to try and be the best person I can be.
the sky was amazing this afternoon
I hope that you all had a wonderful Christmas and wish you the best possible for the coming year

it's kinda funny that MCS has two New Years related songs on the same album (this and "Resolution"). I posted this last year, but I'm posting it again because I love it so much.
The one based on Mean Girls? I have no clue what pairing it was. Or rather, any fics based on Mean Girls, really.
Also, any cute Ryan/Brendon standalones? Like maybe some sort of holiday themed or just really sweet and fluffy, I'm in that sort of mood. :) Maybe something recent, I've been out of the loop for a while.
Fandom: Doctor Who Title: You'll Never Go Down To the Gods Again Summary: "I’ve survived being mad since I was eight years old, but you, you lose your mind a bit and you try to blow up the universe." Rating/warnings: NC-17. Characters/pairing: Doctor/Master. Disclaimer: I don't own them. Notes: Title from "Width of a Circle" by David Bowie. Written as a Christmas fic for guinsky, about twenty-four hours before the first part of "The End of Time" aired, and therefore completely non-canon compliant. I've cleaned it up a bit and am posting it here.
Today sucked.It was slow. We didn't have calls waiting at any point. But we didnt get flexed either. and I was in pain all day. My back was killing me. I'm so glad to be home.
this year has been crazy! but i'm not about to list all the events i attended or enjoyed mostly because i can't remember them.
the trip to san diego was amazing. 24 is such a great show and i had a lot of fun. maybe more on that later.
we had a family party last night. it's always nice to see my dad's side of the family. even when the boys talk about camel spiders and other scary afghan creepy-crawlies.
i got a journal i wrote stuff in before i went to san diego. it says "HELL IS OTHER PEOPLE" and i love it.
i had some weird dreams: 1. i was in 24 (after watching 16.5 hours of 24) 2. Chris Pine fell on his face and exposed the thong he was wearing, leading me to WTF at him. 3. my mom went shopping with San Diego rich women and was jealous of their closets.
i only have 4 days to do homework and art and writing and everything! but Heroes 2 hours premiere soon!!!
Title: You Can Be the Best for Me (When I'm the Worst for You) [standalone] Author: ipanicdaily Pairing: Gabe/William POV: 3rd Rating: PG-13 Disclaimer: If I owned either of the boys in this story, I wouldn't be here writing, would I? No, I'd be out making it happen and video recording it for you instead ^^ Title comes from Mr. Right by A Rocket to the Moon Summary: The ice cream parlor in the mall was a sacred place for the two. Not only was it one of the longest lasting shops in the place, but it was where Gabe brought Bill six years ago when they first met to cheer him up. That was one of Gabe's favorite days of his life. Not only did he get a new friend, he finally convinced his parents to stop with the nannies. Until he was twelve, one of the maids would keep an eye on him; though Gabe spent as much time as he could with William. Warning: Name calling, crude language, pedophile-like-qualities Beta: lilrainforest Author Notes: Alright. This is the second installment of our epic Gabilliam adventure.
Happy New Years, Baby [s/a] Brendon/Spencer || PG-13 || Third POV || 850 words “Whatever, man. Famous or not, no one’s even looked twice at me tonight.” This isn't true...well I don't think it is. Chances are though, it's not. Title and cut belong to Fall Out Boy. I wrote this at 1230 last night after my mum and nan went to bed. Only took me about 40 minutes to write it and think it all up LOL. mega fast for me. Anyway ENJOY. Written for failboatsinlove Christmas/New Years Challenge... seeing I wrote Christmas!fic decided NewYears!fic was a must too :) Beta'd by midnightsugar
So basically my year consisted of being bored as hell, feeling lonely, bandom news, Brendon Urie, Ryan Ross's idiocy, The Maine, being worried about my family's economy, community service, school, saving money for warped tour, waiting for news of good bands coming to Mexico, watching TV shows on the Internet, reading tons of books, and jumping off of a plane.
Here's my 2009 Scrapbook for my list of books I read and other things.
Sorry for the spam, bbs, but I thought I might also post some yuletide recs. I haven't managed to get any up before reveals in a few years! (I don't think I'm going to link this in the comm, though - it's kind of flooded.)
These are really pretty random. I haven't read anything in the Madness collection yet, and I haven't read everything in all of these fandoms, either. I was just clicking at random for awhile there, though I did read straight through most of the Leverage fic at one point.
Fandoms: Alleluia (Dar Williams), Arcadia, Arthurian Legends, Being Human, Castle Waiting, Dykes To Watch Out For, Eastwick, Fried Green Tomatoes, Gunnerkrigg Court, Jeeves & Wooster, Leverage, Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi (Spirited Away), and Victor/Victoria.
I'm not sure I'll keep posting recs - I'm hoping to get my full recs pages set up on dreamwidth fairly soon, so I'll just stick yuletide stuff in there as I go. On the other hand, I definitely plan to do some yuletart recs this time (post-reveal, though, because I'm not caught up yet). :)
I haven't been spending much time on the internet, this break! Well, apart from reading yuletide stories, anyway. ;) A lot has been going on. I spent the better part of two days with a visiting sweetvalleyslut, took my little brother to see my favorite small band (Enter the Haggis, of course), and oh right: someone tried to burn down my TOWN. Jesus fucking christ. My family and friends are all fine, but that was an awful business. (I am hoping so hard that the past tense is appropriate, here. These are not the first "suspicious" fires we've had in recent years, though they were the first--and hopefully last--deaths.)
2009 has not been a banner year for most people I know (to put it lightly, in some cases), and in general this decade has seen some severe downs (though it's had its ups as well). In spite of a whole lot of political fatigue, I'm trying to keep my hopes up for the new year. I have a lot of plans for it!
Happy New Year to all of you lovely people. ♥ I met quite a few of you over the course of the last year, and got to know several of you much better than I had before! I'm very grateful for that part, lumps and bumps aside. :)
Title: Obstreperousness or Three Ways Not to Leave Your Lover Author:arctic_grey Rating: NC-17 Pairing: Ryan/Brendon POV: 3rd, switches Summary: Ryan and Brendon aren’t dating because they hate each other. Really. Disclaimer: Not real. Never happened. Beta: the wonderful uqangela, thank you! Author Notes: This is a sequel to Relearning How to Breathe, which I recommend reading to understand the context. This is also a prequel to the actual Ry/Bren mpreg story that is to follow sometime in the unknown future. Consider this an interval! In a way! An introduction to the foundations of Ryan and Brendon’s unrelationship. Happy New Year! <3
Title: The Uninvited Author:msbenzedrine Pairing: Ryden Rating: PG13 POV: 3rd Summary: (high school AU) Brendon’s life took a huge turn when he found himself suddenly living with his rich new guardian and her family in a mansion Brendon thought only existed in TV shows after his foster mom died. Living in luxury would be fine or much peaceful if it wasn’t for his guardian’s son, Ryan, a rich kid his age who didn’t like having uninvited guests around. Living together should be interesting.
Warnings: Some swearing and bitchy Ryan in the coming chapters. Beta:deadoralive0013 Disclaimer: wish they were mine Notes: the ninth. As promised.
Title: Damned if I do ya (Damned if I don’t) - Prologue Author:rigz95 Beta:twistedoodles Rating: R? Pairing: Ryden, and many more POV: Ryro’s Summary: “Speak,” I muttered as I got up and began noticing my unpacked clothes. And that’s when it hit me. I, instead of palming myself, gave myself a harsh slap on the forehead.
God damn it, I fell asleep while packing! What the fuck now?! I’m so fucking screwed. The old man’s gonna’ kill me…
Disclaimer: don’t own them. title came from atl’s song Damned if I do ya (Damned if I don’t) Author Notes: first time posting? Well, be nice. :D
Title: I Constantly Thank God for Intermissions Author:all_depends Rating: PG-13 (A blowjob is suggested but not described.) Pairing: Rydon POV: It shifts from Ryan's to third. You'll be able to distinguish. Summary: "For some strange and inexplicable reason, Brendon grabs my head with both his hands and shuts his eyes as his lips approach my own. My first reaction, of course, is to pull back to avoid the mouth connection. Oh, and also to yell, 'What the heck?!'" Disclaimer: This is completely fictional. I do not own anything or anyone mentioned. The only thing that's mine is the story. Beta: My friend Janette Author Notes: After the story
