I think my Ethan fic just died on me

[estepheia]

Isn't the internet just amazing? I just asked myself what a magpie sounds like, whether it caws like a crow, entered 'bird song magpie' into google and found a site that hosts Corvidae Sounds.

But even the magpie info doesn't help. I think I have to shelve my Spike/Ethan fic that I'm writing for the Ethan-ficathon and start from scratch. Ack.
Or maybe I should finish a previous attempt at Spike/Ethan, called Candy Man. Normally the requestee should get something brand-new, but it seems I can't get a handle on any of my stories right now. Oh, the irony. I wrote a how-to essay on the Spike/Ethan ship, but I can't write the damn pairing myself. *facepalms.*

She's such a fickle cow, these days. Bah.

Good idea to get Ethan drinking. Spike doesn't have to join him, of course if he's wary, though I don't see how he would be as he wasn't the one on the receiving end of the Fyarl spell. And, as Angel and Spike both agreed, it's much more difficult to get a vampire drunk than it is a human. All you need is the motive behind why Spike finds himslef in Ethan's bar - and I presume you already have that.

Feel free to bounce off me for while. I'm not off to France until the end of the month.

Yay, thank you!!!
Spike is wary at first, but he soon grows overconfident. :-)
Besides, he has his flask on him, so he can drink too. Yay for booze!!!

Sounds familiar. I'm sure a little discussion about the merits (or otherwise) of American booze will soon lead to a discussion of other things they have in common - football, Giles-loathing, the Initiative.

Are you back on track now?

Am I back on track now? Er, no, I'm actually a little tipsy right now. LOL.
the weather was awesome today and when a friend of mine stopped by we worked in the garden for almost four hours, then decided to open a bottle of sparkling wine...
I can't write when I'm tipsy. I get very sleepy so I'll go to bed early.

But I think I have at least a clue from where to go on tomorrow morning.

*Yawn*
