Um.

Riddle me this: why the fuck am I so tempted to sign up for skins_bigbang? I mean, series four and I did not get on. I haven't written any Skins fic in months, not even my embarrassingly-overdue help_haiti fic or that fucking 80s AU. It's been forever since I've even read any Skins fic. And yet I see all this Big Bang excitement on my flist, and suddenly I'm ridiculously tempted to sign up. To be a part of fandom again. IDEK.

I would ask people to talk me off the ledge, but I feel that would be counter-productive. ;)

DUDE, WAY TO FIND MY ACHILLES HEEL.

Dude, you should so do it! Everyone and their mom is doing it.

[botherd.livejournal.com]

See, that's pretty much why I want to do it: because everyone else is. PEER PRESSURE.

[immortality.livejournal.com]

Do ittttt. Be a follower, bb. Not a leader.

[botherd.livejournal.com]

I think I'm going to see if I can get the fic I owe done, and then sign up. Maybe. IDK!

[immortality.livejournal.com]

Well, that's a start.

I may have ... already finished my femslash10 fic. *shifty look* I'm using the SkinsBB to actually finish my Were the World Mine AU.

[botherd.livejournal.com]

Already?! LOL, I've barely thought about mine.

[immortality.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I didn't expect to finish it this early. Inspiration just struck and I had to write!

[sinandmisery.livejournal.com]

I'm here to tell you to do it because jengrrrl told me to. And also because I might be starting to watch Skins next week. I know. Late.

[botherd.livejournal.com]

Oh, I hope you enjoy Skins! Although, uh, you probably stand more of a chance to do that if you miss out series four entirely, or just prepare for the worst.

[supergoodtimes.livejournal.com]

You talented mofo, you. On a personal and extremely selfish level I think you should get ON IT ;) but on DIY level I think it would also be uber beneficial but only if it isn't going to stress your brains out in a morbid (not ~morbid) way. Otherwise, I agree with all this PEER PRESSURE. In other words, if I had your amazing talent and a bit of time, I would. I hope this comment isn't too irrelevant, because I really am a massive fan of your writing.

[botherd.livejournal.com]

LOL, not irrelevant at all, and thank you! I think - well, at the moment I just want to do it because it's the shiny new thing that everyone's doing, but I think it depends on whether I get ~inspired. I have another Skins story to write first, so even if I don't do BB but get that one done, it'll be good.

[supergoodtimes.livejournal.com]

In that case, I'm just going to be grateful and happy about whatever comes our way. :)
Also, I'm not sure what you thought of the semi's, but I was this only of my friend who was all "viva Deutschland" but then I wasn't too peeved when Spain won because they deserved it... though Spain vs. Netherlands? My money would be on Spain but my heart would be on the Netherworld.

[botherd.livejournal.com]

I've kind of lost interest in the football really, but I was glad Spain won. I'm rooting for Holland in the finals though. :D

[botherd.livejournal.com]

Well, in that case I'll probably sign up! :D I don't even have any IDEAS, just general excitement, so IDK how well it'll go, but we'll see.

[lizardwriter.livejournal.com]

Do it! Give in to the peer pressure! I'm about to I think.

[botherd.livejournal.com]

I'm pretty sure I'm going to at this point. :D

[queenbellevue.livejournal.com]

SHUT UP AND GO GET YOUR ASS SIGNED UP NOW! IT'S FATE, YOU CAN'T FIGHT IT.

[botherd.livejournal.com]

I REALLY CAN'T, CAN I?
