So, last day in my temp job today, thank GOD because it was boring as hell. Though the people I worked with were really nice.
Because it was a school, they had blocking software on their computers, so some pages on the net were blocked, or cut off part way down. Weird thing was, it refused to let me open Sign Language so I could answer the comments, in which nothing much happens and no-one even says damn, but it was happy for me to read East of the Sun, West of the Moon, in which many and varied things unsuitable for young eyes happen. I don't get it.
Also of note - ITV3 are repeating Liverpool 1, which I first saw when I was... 16, maybe? and is completely responsible for my addiction to broken characters. Sadly, there's no sign of it coming out on DVD.
Started work on my story for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
spookathon, for values of started work that translate to "wrote 1 page in a week and have no idea where it's going"; also started on a thing about how Lorne picked up their crew in Penguins & Sparrows, before realising it wasn't working and needed to be an actual story; also started (which may explain why I haven't finished anything yet!) a story about John's dad dying, though it's being thwarted by the failure of the internet to divulge the information I want. On which note, do we know which branch of the military John's dad was in?
Recs:

synecdochic's Broken Wings is up to part 9 and if you're not reading it, you should be. It's Cam and Jack's clone, in an AU where Cam doesn't join SG1, and I'm really hoping for a happy ending, at least partly because I'd love to see how she's going to create one. I feel like I'm reading it and waiting for Cam to crack, which is probably why I'm so giddy when there's a new part.
2. Various Cam/John fics forsg_flyboys (for which I got gorgeous icons, including this one!); my favourites are torakowalski's Falling From The Sky Now and Then, set during The Return, because it's beautifully written and Cam is so lovely in it (also, they make out on Mars!); and wojelah's Parley, set in a future where both of them are broken. It's full of hints that they could make things better for themselves, with this pervasive sense of their own inability to let go and try and it just *works*
3. I wanted to rec something cheerful for no 3, because the first 2, while all wonderfully written, aren't exactly sunshine and happniness. Sadly, even the vaguely happy stuff makes me sad, so there is no number 3. Sorry.
