So... yeah. I do have a new chapter of 'Good Enough' (The OC/Brothers & Sisters, Ryan is the Walker half brother) almost done, and I'm trying to get new chapters of other WIP fics done... but new ideas haunt me... so these are the ones currently poking at me...

I will gladly make 'primer' posts (videos included) for any and all fandoms anyone isn't familiar with...

( Multifandom The Umbrella Academy AU )

( Multifandom Lost In Space AU )

( The 100/The OC Modern AU )

( Lucifer Idea #1 - Human AU )

( Lucifer Idea #2 - Lucifer/The OC Crossover )

I may have thought that last one out WAY more than any other... but I sorta love it...

So, my mom and I have been watching Umbrella Academy on Netflix (We finished Ep7 tonight, gonna watch the last 3 either tomorrow or next weekend depending on when we have time), and me being me... I kinda wanna do one of my famous multi-fandom crossovers with my favorite characters as the siblings, just gotta figure out who would have what powers and which exact characters I want to include... and how close I'd stick to UA storyline (like do I try to match other characters to the UA character roles exactly? Who's the closest match to Luther/Allison/Diego/Klaus/Five/Ben/Vanya? Or just the vague general premise?)

( Cut for UA spoilers )
I am really liking this idea now... and the twists on the UA storyline... really liking it... don't know if it'll get written, but... I'm liking it....

Almost at the end!

( #11 - Home (Ryan Bullit!Verse) )

Another day another gift... only 2 left now!

( #10 - Midnight )

Gift #9 is here!

( #9 - Never Stop (Ryan/Brooke) )

No specific 'verse, just one where S/S happened and ended, and R/S got together, much to Seth and Sandy's dislike.

( #8 - Marry Me (Ryan/Summer) )

Gift #7!

( #7 - Stay Tonight... (Ryan/Connor Art) )

Another one I found in my drafts folder and polished up a bit for you guys.

( #6 - I'd Come For You )

This one is random and most of it originally written YEARS ago (found it in my drafts folder of my email... dated 2013)... no real 'verse, and a lot of it comes from a faulty memory of how the infamous Ryan/Alex/Seth/Lindsay double date went... so we are gonna pretend I delibrately changed it so that the duos were Seth/Alex and Ryan/Lindsay for that disaster (because the hilarity of Seth someday realizing he hooked up with/wanted to hook up with his aunt is too good to pass up... lol)... I polished it up a bit, but here you go!

( #5 - Hook Up )

4th Gift!

( #4 - Potential )

The 3rd Gift this year is from my Mercy!Verse, which is the one where after a horrific year in Juvie, Ryan ended up being adopted by Officer John Cooper (from Southland), and it has crossed over with other crime related fandoms, such as Ryan having been on the CSI:NY team, and now being on the NCIS:New Orleans team.

I'll admit, I did NOT like or trust Tammy Gregorio when she first appeared on NCIS:NO, but since then I have come to love her. Her friendship with Sebastion is so cute! And considering the obvious Brooklyn accent, it's gotta be assumed that Gregorio is originally from/spent a good deal of time in New York.I'm going with both: she was born and raised in Brooklyn, then assigned there with the FBI for several years.

This would take place a little while after the previous one in this verse with Gregorio (Ryan challenged her to profile him, and Sarah got mentioned and Ryan had a bit of a mini breakdown). Ryan has returned from his leave of absence to deal with his grief, and is settling back in.

( #3 - Common Grounds )

Very late getting this out because just as I went to post it, I got a call from work about a problem I needed to go in to handle. Took me a while to deal with it. Ugh.

The 2nd gift this year is part of my Ryan Sloan!Verse, where Ryan had leukemia as a child and found out when he was 12 that biologically he's the son of Dr. Mark Sloan from Grey's Anatomy. This one takes place once Ryan is an adult, in college (med school actually, but it doesn't come up in this... lol) and comes home for Christmas. It only features Ryan talking to Callie Torres, and I think y'all may be a bit surprised by it. But I love it.

( #2 - Love Love Love )

As mentioned before, due to me being in a 'bah' kinda mood, I didn't get gifts done in time to do 24 Gifts. Instead, I am doing 12 Gifts, for the 12 Days Of Christmas.

This one is a bit of an AU of an AU, what if at least one Cohen had turned up in Dallas after Ryan's car accident made news? It doesn't go well, but... well... Ryan has people in his corner now.

( #1 - Not So Happy Reunion )

I don't have anything ready. The last month just went by so fast and I... I suck.

What I'm gonna shoot for instead, though, is basically a 12 Days Of Christmas thing, counting down from the with the first gift on the 13th and the last on the 24th. This gives me 12 days to get gifts ready. I can do that... lol...

Still in a funk and feeling like I fail at life. I wrote 2500 words the first day of NaNo and nothing since... I just can't seem to focus on anything longer than a few pages. It's the viscous depression cycle:
I feel like I fail at life. Because of that, I have trouble writing. Because I have trouble writing, i feel even more like I fail, which makes it harder to focus and write, which makes me feel worse... bah

BUT! I'm trying to get through this by writing short stuff, like say... 24 Gifts of 2018? lol

I have several one shot ideas, and I'm thinking of doing a couple fanvids... new laptop came in so I'm slowly transferring over files, but I'm trying to keep things better organized this time... lol

So, any requests? For either fics or vids? I'm thinking I want to make a few vids that are basically tell stories, maybe something in Mercy!Verse (Ryan adopted by John Cooper, and eventually ends up working for NCIS in New Orleans), maybe something Ryan/Brooke and something Ryan/Summer... Maybe something with a whole bunch of seemingly random characters and by the end it's revealed how they all connect (like how the movie 'What's Cooking' did with the 4 families, or how the pilot episode of Modern Family didn't reveal until near the end that they were all one extended family)...

For vids, give me song suggestions (artist and title, please)! Or send me a link to a clip or two you want me to use! That last one I mentioned above, random characters being revealed to be connected? Send me an actor or actress (outside of The OC and One Tree Hill since of course ones from those would be included) and if I can find good clips that work with the rest, I will find a way to work it in... I kinda want to make a MASSIVE alternate universe crossover vid... lol

Depression is a bitch but I will fight back.

Haven't posted since DECEMBER! I've written some (have a completely finished chapter of 'Never Again' to post but have been procrastinating... even though I love it and it FINALLY has Ryan proposing to Brooke...) but not much.

I'm in either a Ryan/Summer or Ryan/Brooke mood... something angsty because... yeah, that's what I write best... but with occasional light hearted moments...

I'm thinking of doing a Weekly Theme thing... Each week, there's a certain couple or otherwise story focus. For Example: Week 1 - Ryan/Brooke, Week 2 - Gen Cohens+1, Week 3 - Ryan and his siblings (Trey, Seth, Sophie Rose, Unnamed Frank/Julie son, AU siblings, etc), Week 4 - Ryan/Summer, Week 5 - Ryan Gets Emancipated, etc...

Each Monday I would make a 'Pick-A-Prompt' post, where I tell you how many prompts I have in that weeks inspiration folder, you pick a number in that range and I write something for it. Or if you want to write something for the Focus, tell me what and I will send you a link to your prompt. Then between then and the following Sunday, I write stuff for the prompts chosen for me, posting them by Sunday night at the latest.

I really like writing fics that are at least a little interact, at least in the initial conception, challenging myself to write whatever is picked... especially since everything in the folder would obviously inspire me anyway, it makes me HAVE to write one of the many ideas I have not just go "No, I can't." because I can tell myself people are expecting something.

Anyway, is there any interest? I don't know if anyone is even still reading The OC fics anymore, it seems like so much of the fandom has died... makes me sad...

Sorry guys... I found out today that a friend/former coworker died. She was a single mom of several kids, the oldest being a senior in high school. It just kinda put a damper on my mood. I'll try to get one out tomorrow.

Sorry this one is late today was... crazy.

I work the front desk at a motel, but I had today off and went into the nearest big town to do some final Christmas shopping. I'm in line to check out at a crafts store when my phone rings... it's one of the maids at the motel, telling me that a guest DIED in a room the night before. All 3 maids are unable to clean the room for religious reasons, so guess who gets to spend her other day off, the day before she works from 9am to 10pm (on Tuesday), steam cleaning a room where a guy died? If you guessed me, you're right! Good news is, my boss feels bad for asking me, so she's giving me an extra $50 on top of my regularly hourly pay for however long it takes... but I stopped by the motel to get an idea of the situation (the body was removed already), and it smells BAD... so... ugh...

( Gift 17 - Reunion (Ryan & Bucky Verse) )

More Mercy!Verse! This one takes place after Ryan has been with NCIS for a while, and specifically as Gregorio is joining the team to investigate Pride and the team. Some joking around about Gregorio's profiling abilities leads to some heartache for Ryan when Sarah gets brought up.

Since it mentions Sarah's death, I need to warn for rape and murder. The title will make sense by the end.

( Gift 16 - The Ring (Mercy!Verse) )

Anther day, another gift! This one is more of my 'verse were Bucky Barnes, on the run after the events of 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier', happened to meet Ryan Atwood, on the run from Hydra, and they teamed up to kick hydra ass.
