cuz tonight I'm livin' in a fantasy

[thatrcooper]

Holy shit, release day.

I mean, not that it matters in the grand scheme of life or anything. Just that I am all nervous and fluttery about it and I still have to go to work and be all normal and calm and shit. :(

No fun. I will imagine Chandler/Kent sex while there maybe. Just for funsies. Then maybe work on original plotting stuff like a good girl.

Meanwhile, just a reminder for anyone who feels they need an epilogue that one does in fact exist. And it's free! (You just have to suffer my bad Spanish).

Somebody Named Will


So much love to everyone today. Especially Claire and Paulina and Daphne and Dreamsparkle, for keeping me on target. :)

You wouldn't be normal if you weren't shaking in your boots a bit right now. Ok, a lot.:)

(You should know that I'm waving my imaginary pom-poms right now. Just for you.:D)

Chandler/Kent sex would be so awkward and clumsy (and hot) and it would stay almost pg *forever*. I vote for sweaty fumbling on a couch with clothes on. Heavy breathing, the whole drill.

What do you think of Chandler's experience level? A bit, before his OCD went crazy, or nothing? Let's discuss. You know, so I can better imagine the slow, slow hot awkward sticky fumblings between them and how Kent would have to take charge. Unf unf unf.

Re: Backatcha.:)

He doesn't seem *that* freaked out, so he would have some 'normal' experience. (That said, he's *weird* and tends to do shit even when he's not comfortable with it. ...I don't know what I mean with this but it feels important. He's unusual.)

I'd say he has dated a few women, has been at least partially satisfied with the relationships but the sex wasn't 'all that' because he doesn't seem to miss it that much. He wants companionship more? I think? What say you?
(Could be he more or less takes the women who pick *him* up. They read him wrong and he goes with the flow. Eventually it comes obvious that he's not that meek even if he is polite and gentlemanly.)

And something.

Re: Backatcha.:)

Well trying to seem normal would get him pretty far, but eventually the OCD is going to interfere. Plus he's just weird and old fashioned anyway. I am leaning toward childhood/teenage stuff and maybe an on again off again, casual type college girlfriend.

Then I think something triggered his OCD to get worse and he's been alone for a long time.

Re: Backatcha.:)

[dlasta.livejournal.com]

At the very least it's been a few years since the last time he had even a date.

Stress of the job, trying very hard to blend in/get along with people who aren't his type? That would do it.

How old is Chandler supposed to be?

Re: Backatcha.:)

[r-cooper.livejournal.com]

I assume in his thirties. Maybe older? But I got the sense he was supposed to be youngish golden boy with that first promotion.

It is exhausting pretending to be normal, even if you don't do it very well. It would be why he doesn't go out much. Even a short evening out would wear him down.

I had an idea for a short fic. Though I don't think I will write it.

Re: Backatcha.:)

[dlasta.livejournal.com]

I just can't be bothered to imdb RPJs age.

So, over 35?

Add to the stress of trying to fit in, he's an idealist. That would make this specific job a bad idea.

Tell me?

Re: Backatcha.:)

[r-cooper.livejournal.com]

Well I want to write it, but again, I can't do Brit speak so I think it would suck.

I want something simple and short. But basically that Chandler has injured himself somehow and doesn't have use of his hands (for maybe a few days, maybe longer) and is freaking out about it in his office because he knows that means a change in his routine and most likely Myles or a nurse or someone touching him and/or just doing things to mess him up. And a possible stay with Myles in his messy house with the screaming baby. Which is like an OCD nightmare. Only he can't calm himself down like he'd usually do with the Tiger Balm so he is sitting with his eyes closed and trying not to outwardly panic or show his rising headache, and then someone comes in that he assumes is Myles only it's Kent.

And I want him like, being all, let me help you sir, and not giving him a chance to argue before rubbing his temples with it etc... And then Myles coming in and Chandler being all stumbly about it, like he does when around gay stuff and Myles's knowing expression, only Myles doesn't say anything about it. He just looks and then announces there's a change of plans and Kent will be looking after him tonight, the team's decided. Because no way would Chandler argue against the squad or want to make a scene, and going to his own home is better than being babysat in Myles's house. And he would totally miss the look Myles would give Kent and everything.

I am a dork. I know it.

Re: Backatcha.:)

[dlasta.livejournal.com]

A fluffy dork, yes.:)


I just want Kent to dress Chandler. You know, all gentlemanly, blushing at the same time. Huuuuge mutual embarrassment with a slight hint of actual intimacy and trust.

Just wanted to say I adore Charlie and Will, and congrats on your release day!!! I haven't finished the book yet, but I devoured the free reads last night in anticipation. They make me happy. I hope we get to see more bits from Will's POV eventually...I really want to know more of what goes on in that head of his! Particularly in the first few chapters, but I'd be satisfied with anything with these two in it, I think ...I of course loved the free epilogue :0)

Rambling, but what can I say, these boys are awesome! Please keep writing them!

[r-cooper.livejournal.com]

Charlie and Will are kind of adorable. At least to me, which is why it's awesome when other people agree. And Will! He's just so precious!

[slimwhistler.livejournal.com]

Okay, so having read on, I just have to say you're awesome. You used the "Where's my wandering parakeet?" line. I love that line. It is probably my favorite line in the whole movie, just for its sheer, random appropriateness...it's not always a line people notice, though. And it fits Will perfectly!

(I love classic film, so you book has been a special treat in that sense as well)

Yeah...awesome :)

[r-cooper.livejournal.com]

That line is amazing! I love Liz. Not as much as I love Macauley Conner, but close.

Got it!

Just got my copy...can't wait to start reading! I look forward to your stories like you wouldn't believe. More, please.

Yay! I wish you many sales :;runs off to buy::

[r-cooper.livejournal.com]

Oh you sweet thing you. *mwah*

[plainapple.livejournal.com]

Wait just a damn minute - I didn't know Will and Charlie was going to be published as a book book. Like a paper, in your hot little hands, turn the pages, put it on your shelf book. That's so exciting! Do you have one? Did you touch it? Why you no send me autographed copy!?!

[r-cooper.livejournal.com]

I do not have a book book. I totally would if I did though.

I think I get like...a few? in my contract. But IDK if I am supposed to ask for them or what.

I know nothing.

[plainapple.livejournal.com]

Demand your books at once! Don't you want to flip through it's pages and smell that new book smell and all that?

I don't really expect you to send me one - that's no way to run a business. Tell me to get off my cheap lazy ass and buy my own damned copy.

[r-cooper.livejournal.com]

Are you kidding? Did you see what they are charging? The publishing industry has gotten insane if a paperback costs that much!

Anyway it isn't like I go to things where people could get it signed, so why would they buy it?

Damn realism.

I would totes send you one though. Or something better if I had something better. Hmmm

[plainapple.livejournal.com]

You could go on a book tour - you just need someone to fund it. Try google? They have loads of money and their offices are near you. Or a convention? There are bound to be conventions.

You could always send me stickers.

[r-cooper.livejournal.com]

haha There are occasionally conventions near me that wouldn't be too expensive to go to. But paying for a booth? As if I have fans?

Silly talk!

(Not to mention having to be in a crowd...full of people...who might want me to talk to them... Those are the things of nightmares!)


ahaha She came in again the other day. I want to say she likes Jensen? Something like that. Amazing. Stickers all the way. If only I had stickers of unicorns shitting rainbows.

I helped?! I am honoured I swear. :) Bought and read your book on my train ride yesterday. Fastest 5 hour travel between home and school ever. I love them both so much. I couldn't help but picture all of it perfectly. I like the way you write. It's like a movie in my head. Maybe it'll get turned into a movie one day. The kind Will would watch :D.

[r-cooper.livejournal.com]

It totally helped to know there was someone out there who wanted me to finish and get my shit together. :)

*Aw* I'm honored that you bought it and that you liked it. (Can't you just picture Will forcing Charlie to watch some rom com that he thinks will be terrible only it's unexpectedly charming and they end up squished together on the couch and sniffling as they watch?)
