Stuff and Things

I'm collecting my thoughts on DH for a more articulate review post soon, but in the meantime, a couple of things.

* My proudest geekmom moment happened while sitting in the theatre waiting for the movie to start. Nine year-old hellmonkey pulled out his copy of The Hobbit and started reading it aloud to his grandfather. Because dwarf songs make the time pass faster!

* We're traveling again today, and seeing thistle_verse later!!!! But for now, I'd like to just sit here and write fic with all these ideas in my head. But I can't. Because there is no time! *sadface* (I know! What problems I have, right?)


* So, am I directing any of these DH pt 2 plot bunnies toward anything productive, like the stuff I need to be working on right now?

No, I am not.

I'm writing fic about Charlie and the escaped Gringotts dragon. (I don't think that needs a spoiler cut since it's not an actual scene from the movie, and it's book canon.) My brain started this after reading book 7, but I managed to make it go dormant for a few years. And apparently it's back now.

Honestly, I just completely lack the ability to not write about Charlie or Lee Jordan when I get struck with the inspiration. Teddy Lupin is quickly joining that list.

So, flist, what about you? Are there any characters/ideas that you're never able to shake once they hit you?

* Also? I need more/better HP icons. I've been thinking that for a long while, but now, I want them.
