You know you've crossed a line...
Feb. 6th, 2006 06:27 pm...when even your dreams are clexified.
I had the weirdest dream the other night. It could've been a Smallville episode, except that it totally wasn't. But it had Clark and Lex and Lana -- circa late Season 3, I think -- and Lana had some kind of psychic powers and was totally badass, and Clark and Lex had to band together to figure out what was going on before she, I dunno, destroyed the world or something. I don't remember all the details. Mostly I remember specific visual images (in particular Lana looking fierce, with this orange glow in her eyes that was much scarier than the now-I'm-possessed-by-an-implausible-French-witch purple glint she sported in S4), and feeling both scared and hopeful for Clark/Lex, since they had to trust each other or bad shit would happen. And then I woke up and realized what I'd been dreaming, and had this feeling of Whoa, now I'm seeing Smallville in my SLEEP?
Maybe it's the inevitable result of giving in to temptation: creating this LJ, compulsively and greedily reading my wonderful flist. Hi, I'm [BLEEP], and I'm a Smallville addict. I've been reading way too much fic -- well, for some value of "too much." (I seem to recall a time when my pleasure reading came from... y'know, what are those things called? Big flat things, with paper and... Oh, BOOKS! I remember those. I used to go through one or two a week. Well, on the upside, books cost money, whereas fanfic is free.)
mskatej, I've been reading through some of your old stories, and felt weird commenting on posts that were made months ago, but some of those pieces are truly excellent, and so hot. "I Put A Spell On You" and "From Afar" in particular -- aren't there any more sequels? There really should be. And although I was skeptical when I first heard the premise, I'm now totally hooked on
toomuchplor's "Barista!Mike" RPS series (although I do keep wondering if he wouldn't be a baristo; is that even a word?) and just want more and more and more of it.
I've been telling myself that eventually I'll come out the other side of this fixation, and go back to being highbrow and all that. Eventually.
