I guess I didn't mention that I called in sick yesterday. AND today. Yup, I feel like crap, yet again. Am trying to get on with some of the needs of everyday life, but mostly not managing it, and the whole midwinter holiday thing has kind of fallen by the wayside. Although I did manage to get a few more cards in the mail, ones eor kindly had ready. Mostly all I've been doing is reading Glitch/Cain fic ("Tin Man" fandom) over at thegraygale. There's some good stuff. And as usual there's stuff also that starts good and then just isn't finished, and some that starts out sounding pretty good and then jumps the shark big time.

God fucking damn I'm cold. Three pair of socks, my jammies and bathrobe, and the thermostat insists it's 68 degrees in here, but I'm cold. Time for a hot bath and maybe some real clothes, but I don't know what I can do for me feet. I think I'm going to give in and turn up the heat even more. :P I feel like a wuss, but I can't see wearing four pair of socks.

I can't believe how many Tin Man comms there are out there, and there are even Glitch/Cain specific comms! :)

Honestly, I thought most of the show was pretty damned lame, but I'm a long time reader/viewer of any Oz related stuff I can find. I even read "A Barnstormer in Oz." I used to collect ALL the books when I was a kid. /me <--is serious idiot fangirl over Oz.

But Glitch. Hot. Damn. And Cain, yes, is a complete jerk sometimes, but he will love Glitch, it's his deeeeethtiny. I don't really get why anyone writes any other pairing.

Have you read that Azkedelia/Glitch story "Evil Like That, (http://community.livejournal.com/tinman_fic/35850.html)"? I'm generally not a fan of non-con BDSM stuff, rape, abuse, etc, but it's well done and makes sense, I have to admit. And there's a sequel in which he might sort his problems out, I hope, "You Don't Forget," (http://community.livejournal.com/glitch_wyatt/70488.html)which is up to 13 chapters and unfinished, and I think she took a kind of wrong turn at one point, but I love a lot of things about the story. Took me forever to find all the parts so far, and I got after the author for not having put a link from the previous chapters. ;)

I was so into Oz when I was a kid! I read a ton of the books, even the ones after it started getting weird.

Ahaha, agreed. Although, no, I would read Cain/Zero. >:)

Huh, I might give it a pass. I'm not super into explicit het at the moment.

I'm always VERY not into explicit het. The thing that saved this story, for me was that it wasn't really explicit as far as what she forces him to do, and I knew that it's all Cain/Glitch in the second story. Also, it's all about his brain being so messed up that he's not sure from one minute to the next what's happening to him.
