Wheeeee!

I'm almost done with the rough draft of Weir vid. *almost* SO CLOSE OMG.

I think I can knock the rest of it out tonight (by which I mean, before 6:00AM tomorrow morning, at which point I have to go to sleep in order to get my requisite six hours before my anatomy class.

Then I'm swamped with work till the 23rd, then vacationing w/ the family. I've asked my vid beta's to get back to me by Jan. 5, which gives me 5 days to play before I have to finish Weir vid.

What to do, what to do.

Tentative ideas include:

Dexter vid
Fight Club vid
Fat Lee Adama vid
The Craft vid

I'm leaning towards the Dexter idea, I have to say.

Anyway, I'm off to an anatomy workshop. Catch y'all on the flip side.

Oooh! Can't wait!

And a Dexter vid would be awesome. I've only seen the first three episodes so far (and am avoiding spoilers), but I love it :D

DEXXXXXXTERRRRRR!

Hrm. That's a *really* hard name to type as if one is howling it, unlike "Stelllaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"

Holy crap. If you did a fat Lee Adama vid you would win at fandom and also at life.

I had a conversation w/ my flatmate yesterday morning where she was all in a tizzy wondering how you were going to fix the unrequited thing.

And I had theories.

Katie would tell him no because Draco's the type to fawn over people and frankly, Katie's not fawning back. Or you'd drag things out and Katie would tell him yes, and then tell him no at some point before the wedding. Not at the alter, seeing as you're not that melodramatic.

Then the Draco/Harry could go a few different ways:

Whilst getting over Katie, Draco is lonely and gets the brilliant idea that he and Harry ought to be having sex. Two birds, one stone and all that. It would be totally casual of course (because Draco is just that oblivious). Harry thinks it's a terrible idea but goes along with it anyway because he can't actually bring himself to say no to sex with Draco. Later on Draco is somehow confronted with indisputable proof that Harry's desperately in love with him and there's a HORRIBLY AWKWARD MOMENT in which Draco says, "I need to be alone and think about this" and Harry goes off to (figuratively) cry and masturbate (or actually, perhaps literally). The next time he sees Draco, Draco has worked out the whole thing in his head and decided they're perfect for each other because he sort of loved Harry already, only it wasn't sexual, except now it is, problem solved, so they should just be in a relationship and Harry can buy him flowers and marmalade and "I don't see how this could possibly go wrong." DUN. DUN. DUN.

or

Draco is moping and not over Katie and hits on Harry because he's a horrible drunk. Harry knows it's a bad idea but has no willpower. Draco falls asleep right in the middle (or at the beginning) of the sex. The next morning Draco apologizes profusely for making such a spectacle of himself. He figures Harry's participation was just Harry being a gentleman (because Draco is just that oblivious). Draco throws himself back into his work, stops sleeping altogether (as he does) and ends up shot or otherwise maimed again, only this time Harry has had just about enough and intimidates the hospital staff into letting him into Draco's room in his scary veelaparselvoice. He collapses into a chair next to the hospital bed and wakes up to Draco talking to Katie in hushed tones and carding his fingers through Harry's hair. Katie says something about how it could never have worked out between them—she could never have loved Draco as he deserves (looking pointedly at Harry). Draco of course has *no idea* what Katie means by that and spends the next few weeks trying to figure it out, loudly, in Harry's presence until finally Harry gets fed up and snogs him and Draco says, "oh," in a very small voice and Harry wishes he could just disappear, and then remembers he can and disapparates. Some days later Draco ambushes him into a conversation and says, "That kissing thing wasn't half bad. We should try it again." He and Harry get into a relationship where Draco points out periodically that really, Harry's a much more attentive lover than Katie and Harry snogs him into silence every time he brings up Katie and they live happily ever after.

or more probably

something else entirely that is completely unexpected and yet wonderfully believable and satisfying and will cause me to fall to my knees in fannish worship


Which is to say, I noticed a lot of the commenters were wondering how this story was going to end happily, but I have faith in your (not so secret) writing genius, and am in fact more worried about the possible ramifications of my brain having been so thoroughly eaten by this story. I can only hope I won't accidentally walk into a closed door or forget to look both ways crossing the street.


That said, I am working on fanart, which you should be getting at some point in the next three weeks.
