Sorry for the crazy posting overload recently...

STOP EVERYTHING RIGHT NOW. JUST STOP.

FREEZE.

The creepy assassin dude in Miracle Day episode four was C. Thomas Howell????

I AM THE WORST FAN EVER AND ALSO O.O

I forget that all of Ralph Macchio's aging apparently went to Howell, and I have to stop being shocked when doesn't look like he does on my Outsiders DVD.

I have to give Torchwood props for guest actors, ok? Between him and Mare Winningham, ALL MY BRAT PACK BUTTONS ARE BEING PUSHED.

(I haven't see Fred Koehler in anything, but he played Billy in a production of The Cripple of Inishmaan so I'm just going to give him a billion points. A BILLION.)

Happy Fics Roundup II

Happy Fics Roundup II

So, when I'm feeling particularly down, I like to ask for prompts for no-pressure fic. It's a fun exercise, and I enjoy writing for prompts, so it all works out in the end. The first time, I organized my fics and edited them slightly before posting them here. I finally organized my fics from my second prompt call, and cross-posted them to AO3, so here's the official roundup!
