Oy, aging

I was going to post about how while it's nice that everyone is happy about s11, it kind of irritates me too, but I read that post and decided to delete it because I already complained about stuff in my last post and I thought, "roxy, do you want to gain a reputation as a crabby old bitch who only posts to complain about shit?" and I thought, again to myself, probably not. I would rather be known as the happy, carefree spirit that I am...is that laughing? Am I hearing laughing?

(busting out an old school icon for this--younger days, lol!)

So, you're not enjoying current seasons, but you still are inspired by the characters? Or do you separate the characters from the show completely, and are writing original characters with their names? I ask because in some ways I think I wrote my last few Smallville fics like that. Though I wasn't as turned off to the show as you are with SpN, it was close until the last season or two, when it seemed to take a deep breath to sprint towards the finish.

I'm still quite in love with the Winchesters. It's just that part of the magic for me was that the show was telling a story, and it's not doing that anymore. I know it sounds kind of weird, but to me, it feels like they're writing according to the feedback on their Twitter and Tumblr feeds rather than telling the story as it needs to be told. I'm a storyteller. That bugs me.

Plus I have certain rage issues right now and the cats are tired of being thrown at the TV. :)

I'm hoping that someday I'll be able to go back and watch, but until then, it's probably best for all of us if I just pretend 10.3 was the series finale.

I've got older bits and pieces still in progress, in addition to the Reynoldses (I swear the OTW sequel will get finished) but the season 10 Impalaverse story is finished, and right now, I don't see me writing anything set later.

As for originals, I got those out the wazoo, I don't need any more. :) Granted, there may be a superficial physical resemblance between two of the swamp vamps and a couple of codependent brothers...but that's a coincidence until somebody proves otherwise. *looks innocent*
