So. How's everybody doing with Game of Thrones this morning?

::koff::

Moving right along...

It's Monday; I know I can use a distraction. Maybe you can, too? (Old and new, like usual)

love isn't always magic, by [archiveofourown.org profile] yugimotos, Hawkeye, Kate Bishop/Clint Barton, ~6500 words, Explicit === Normally, I am more than fine with Kate and Clint being Kate and Clint, but I like this look at how their relationship could turn more sexual. Hint: it's not all hearts and flowers, but it's pretty good regardless.

Half a Minute and Thirty Seconds, by by [archiveofourown.org profile] mrasaki, Avengers | Hawkeye, Clint Barton/Phil Coulson, ~18,500 words, Teen === Very fun fix-it fusion that runs from Thor through the Avengers and into the current Fraction/Aja Hawkeye run.

There wasn't enough Jaime and Brienne

Hah--it was a good episode not to be in, given all the craziness.

And ::points to icon:: look what I went & found.

Icon love! Have you actually started watching or are you still just into tumblr verse?

I have progressed to tracking down her scenes on youtube (bless all the people who upload)--I think I might have to subscribe to huluplus at some point this summer, because that's looking to be the easiest and most cost-productive way to get caught up on this and Once Upon a Time and ... one other show that I'm going blank on now.

To be honest, her parts are the most interesting anyway.

I missed GoT last night on account of yet another business trip. SIGH. I gather a lot of people died? Messily? (I've read the books so I'm guessing, Red Wedding?)

Yup. And let's just say the production team did not back down from the challenge. Seriously. I knew it was coming and I was still shaky by the time they went to credits.

You know, no matter how many times you tell people before they start watching not to get attached, they don't really believe you...

Ew. Guess I won't be watching that one with the kid then ...

Yeah, no. Nobody dies offscreen. My cousin texted me right after it ended and said, "now I know why they call it the Red Wedding."

But, you know... The North remembers...

The North. Yeah, that. I always found the Stark motto vaguely amusing. "Winter is Coming." What I say every year when Andy the Snowplough Guy" puts up the lane markers on our driveway...
