Dear Jensen,

I can call you Jensen, can't I? I mean, I feel we are kind of intimate, what with all the time we've been spending together lately. First Supernatural, then Smallville, now the movies - and in my free time I'm forced to read about every possible variation of the epic love between you and the most adorable Mr. Padalecki (who should
better stop being so damn attractive if he doesn't want me to jump him next time I see him. Which, I realize, in this fandom is maybe not such a funny thing to say, so pretend I didn't say it.) But enough about Mr. I-can-make-everyone-smile-just-by-the-sheer-awesomeness-of-my-existence-Padalecki. This is about you, Jensen.

Jensen, oh, Jensen. We've got to stop meeting this way. First Smallville, and yes, you looked pretty on Smallville. I know you are pretty, and I believe I've told you so a couple of hundred times before. You don't have to convince me. I'm not complaining. I kinda liked your character on Smallville, too (though I've got four episodes to go, so who knows what you'll do. I mean, you made me cry once already this week.)* But to be honest, I had other plans for my life than watching an entire season of Smallville. Ever.

And now My Bloody Valentine? Seriously? Really?

I mean, you look pretty in that one, too, but as I said, I already know you are pretty. And I'm not saying your acting is bad, although, we both know that running through forests/mines/small towns looking slightly panicked and jumpy gets tired after a while. But you did a good job. Only, it was kind of hard to see, between all the BLOOD flowing around on screen, flowing and splattering and dripping and generally making a mess. Strong and gory violence, I believe is what the official warning sticker said?

Well, at least I can't say they didn't want me.

I'm glad you had fun making this movie. I don't know if it was smart career move, but hey, I don't like sharing anyway, if you want to stay a b-movie actor, that's fine with me. But I still can't believe you made me watch such a violent movie! Hello, I was the one who hid under the chairs in Jurassic Park because I was so scared, remember? Okay, you didn't know me back then, but I'm sure I've mentioned it. And now you have me sitting alone, in my lonely appartment on a Sunday night, when it's dark outside (it was a cold and stormy night..), and yes, there really was a thunderstorm, and you make me watch scary movies that have blood dripping all over! You are a very bad influence on me, Jensen.

Let's not even talk about the whole 3d-glasses thing. Do you know how much "fun" it is to eat tomatoes with mozarella and basil when you are wearing red and green glasses? Not that I was hungry after the first few minutes of the movie anyway.

So, let's not do that again. Maybe we can have a quiet night out next time, you know, dinner and a movie, maybe play some darts afterwards. Or, if that's too boring, get a fast car and hunt criminals in southern France. You wearing a tux, me wearing a bikini... And then play darts (I know that nice Irish pub in Nice). Just, anything that doesn't involve blood and graphic violence would be nice. I'd even let you dress up us a wanna-be-punk with blue hair, because I heard that that movie is supposed to be quite good, but it's also ridiculously expensive over here, and since our Valentine's date went so not well, I'm not really willing to spend that kind of money on you right now. Plus, you are not pretty in that one. You hate me, don't you?

Well, I guess I'm trying Devour next, though I'm not getting my hopes up, seeing how there is blood dripping from someone's hopefully dead toes on the DVD cover. But at least it's without Paris Hilton.

I'll let you know how it goes.

Love (slightly waivering),
Oceana






*yes, I'm referring to that story where Jared is a spy and you are his handler
Dear NCIS Fandom,

I spent all of yesterday evening reading through your archives. I read stories in every pairing, yes, even Gibbs/Fornell (what was I thinking? no, what were you thinking?), hoping to find something good (other than the few good authors I already know and who, btw, haven't written things in way too long).

Instead, I broke my brain.


Now I'm going through rec lists, and I have to ask you: PLEASE STOP RECOMMENDING STORIES THAT WILL BREAK MY ALREADY BROKEN BRAIN INTO EVEN SMALLER BRAIN PIECES!!!
Isn't it bad enough that these things are written? Do you have to go out of your way to point them out to me?
Please?


It's really not doing any of us any good if I read your recs and they suck and then my brain hurts and I have to run to the kitchen to find a spoon to spork out my eyes (< Alan Rickman>"Because it's dull, you twit. It'll hurt more..."< /Alan Rickman >), and then I can't even watch the show anymore, and if I can't watch the show anymore because I had to spork out my eyes from reading too much bad fic, maybe I, too, like you, dear fandom, will forget who these characters really are, and will start liking your badfic, and that would make me sad.

So please stop recommending these things.

While we are at it, I could make you a list of people who should start writing altogether. You know, so you wouldn't be tempted to recommend them anymore.

Just for the record:

  • This: "watching as Tony’s eyes glazed over in fear, unshed tears threatening to spill onto his bruised cheeks." is not a sentence that should ever have crossed my or anyone else's eyes.

  • "Moist cavern" is not a very appealing description for any part of Tony' body.

  • Unless you are having a nervous breakdown like I had above (you try breaking your brain without having a nervous breakdown), punctuation is not optional. Neither is spelling. Not even if you are only posting a request at a ficfinding community. Gibbs would have your ass if you were writing reports like most people in you, dear fandom, write fic, lj entries, comments, feedback or their names. Though maybe that's what you are after.

  • If you are remembering a fic where Gibbs gives Tony a headslap and Tony suffers a panic attack as a consequence, close your eyes and think of Spain. Or Mexico. Or Tony and Gibbs having sex in Spain. Or Mexico. Do NOT ask other people where to find it so you can read it again. Not that I don't understand the need to read weird badfic sometimes, but puhleeease, you are way beyond overdoing it.
    (if anyone knows any fic where Gibbs impregnates Tony, drop me a mail. I can't ask at NCISficfind, I think they hate me over there. Though I think I only answered that one time with "We are sorry to inform you that you have been thrown out of fandom for putting terrible out-of-character ideas into fellow fannish minds. Do not pass go, take your badfic request and leave. A Marine will escort you out." Maybe I should have done that more often.)

  • And I haven't even been reading ff.net!



I could go on, but I think I will spare us all the pain.

On the other hand, I recently found [livejournal.com profile] thehoyden, an author whose fic is quite lovely, quiet, in character, not rushing things with love declarations and first time sex in the elevator. At least as far as I can judge from the two fics I have found. (Have you kept any other potentially good authors from me? You know I haven't been around much lately, I need you to tell me about things.

So, fandom, maybe there's hope for you yet. I won't give up, you know, I love you too much. You are, after all, the fandom to my favorite TV-show (which is currently running, don't make me decide between you and SG-1). And as such, I will stay with you until the bitter end. I just wish that you'd make the time until that end a little easier.
*sigh*

Love, always,

Oceana_

P.S.: I feel the need to point out that you are most welcome to unfriend me over this. Everyone has a right to their opinion, which includes you. I'm just seriously amused that someone should get offended by this. Unless it's someone whose fic I was quoting, but really, THAT sentence does not deserve compassion.

Apparently your envelope was thrown into the mailbox of the gay threesome living downstairs by mistake. I'm glad they didn't open it, they may have kept the pretty Anhänger (whatever the English word for that may be) and the hot men calendar for themselves. ;-)

Btw, I saw that there is one more SPN ep scheduled (at least I only know about one) and I will send it to you once it has aired, okay?

1. Dear LJ,

please email me my comment notifications RIGHT NOW!
No love,

Oceana


2. Dear Coach Hamptons Weekend Travel Satchel,

I know you are eagerly waiting to be bought buy me. I'm sorry to inform you that you'll have to wait some longer, since I cannot find 350$ for a bag in my budget right now, even if you have pink straps.

So sorry,

Oceana


3. Dear Awesomeness,

thank you so much for inventing Puppy Curling. My life wouldn't have been the same without it.

Love,

Oceana
