Glass half full?

Yay.
The problem is she doesn't want me to write my WIPs. I know, right? WTF?
That's why right now I'm kind of struggling with one of the corniest plots ever until I'll beat it into submission.
It's so, so corny, I'm ashamed of myself.

On the other hand, I went on a shopping spree and bought myself three summer dresses! \0/

Ohh, geez, I love it, too. I wasn't joking when I called it my happy place. What in particular did you like about it?
You should probably also try imp's Beyonce The Vampire Slayer, it's some kind of amazing. Excellent characters, plot that makes you take leaps of intuition, and overall badassness.

I'll try the Beyonce one. I trust you taste. =)

Mikey's more affronted, though, he's the one who, throughout the entire story, sees that it doesn't matter that she's female. It matters to everyone else, it matters to Rae, because they underestimate her, and it comes across in their 'tudes; it makes her defensive and hide a little sometimes. But towards the middle, even, the rest of the band absolutely adopts Mikey's attitude, and that's really why I love this fic. It's better than brotherhood or sisterhood, because it's gender-neutral. It's just love.
I think she did an excellent job with Mikey, too. This was the first fic where I actually enjoyed Mikey, and then went on to read more Mikey fic. Only a few solid ones, though, because I found the majority of people who wrote fic around him didn't have a particularly good characterization down. It was usually fairly juvenile, or undeveloped.
Thank you! I hope you like it. Let me know what you think!
