Snow, and a meme

[severity_softly]

So, supposedly we're getting 1-5 more inches of snow tonight between 7pm and 2am. Or so I'm told. I saw a few random flakes when I went to the Kroger, but nothing really. 2.5 more hours until snow, y/n? At least I'm off the next two days. :)

Anyway, stealing a meme from carolinecrane:

Comment with a story I've written, and I will tell you something I knew, learned, or wondered about while writing it that didn't make it onto the page.

Fic is here: Criminal Minds Fic (including collab fics, because I can babble about them too), Harry Potter Fic, and Blades of Glory Fic.

Need to pop off for a bit before snow, but hopefully the cold won't knock out our internet (the cold likes to do that to us), and I'll actually be back to answer, should anyone even care. :P

Why You Should Never Drink Too Much in Vegas.

I wanted to pick Pumpkin because I adore that story but went for Prentiss smut instead *am shameless*

Something I wondered about.... this might be cheating actually, because this never had a CHANCE of making it onto the page. This was the fic where I started going "Hey, why am I always writing the chicks, dude?!" *G* We don't write RP style anymore, but we still tend to pick a character and write that character (though we'll take over entire exchanges from time to time if we're inspired), even if the internal monologue is one-sided. So far, I wrote JJ in our unposted Hotch/JJ, then Prentiss in our Rossi/Prentiss fic(s), and after that I wrote Garcia in our Garcia/Rossi fic. I'm not sure how I got nominated to be the chick all the time, but it's really weird. :P Not Bad, just odd.

Oh, also, I/we learned that you can write girl parts without using the word "juices." ;)

That is a very vaulable piece of information. I too make sure I use alternatives.

Place You Least Expect (being the story that made me believe that Reid/Rossi could theoretically work).

(I have learned that my CM-fic criteria is a believable and interesting Reid. That's it. If you can do that, I'm there.)

I wanted to list Fathers are Not Born, but it's a series, so I thought you know, there's more coming and maybe that's enough.

I learned that having worked too many years at Petsmart could somehow pay off in writing fanfic. That whole scene in the backyard when Dave is making burgers? That was me going "My fish geekery, let me show you it." ;) I'll also add that this was the fic in which I fell in love with the pairing. I liked them before. This fic was what cemented them in my head.

Also, that fic is part of the Conscious of Our Treasures universe The first two got posted out of order, but it is a series, and there's more coming around Valentine's Day!

The Fathers Are Not Born stories? Because the way you've managed the Haley-Hotch-Reid-Jack relationships dynamic fascinates me. (I originally had slashes between the names, but I changed it to hyphens because when I re-read the sentence, it looked like I was referring to a reeeeally fucked-up fic... lol).
