five things, fmk update
None of the frontrunners for K had a majority of K votes, but a couple of the overall-low-scoring ones did, and they were books I was planning to read and dump anyway, so they may just go.
I haven't finished any more this week because -
2. I got my
![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
I haven't put it on AO3 yet, but the community post is Lacunae: Highlander/Murderbot Diaries.
Hopefully I will get another couple thousand words written, and then post a version I am happier about to AO3, but it may be a little while because -
3. I went with a bunch of friends went to see Deadpool 2 last weekend. I never saw Deadpool 1, because ultraviolence is not my thing, and Deadpool is a character who in theory I enjoy, but in practice would immediately dump me into needing to read a pile of comics that I actively dislike. But the movie does seem to have managed to pull out all the reasons I want to like Deadpool and change all the reasons I don't, and it was really well done, so now I am reading Deadpool fanfic?
I am glad there's a nice backlog of Deadpool/Cable still out there from before they got divorced, though, because all the recent stuff seems to be Deadpool/Peter Parker and I'm not really feeling that right now. I've been hanging out mostly with the Avengers lately, though, and I'd forgotten how... X-Men X-Men fandom gets.
So anyway--
4. I am apparently writing movieverse Deadpool mpreg now.
Hold Me Closer, Tiny Dancer (4318 words) by melannen
Relationships: Vanessa Carlysle/Wade Wilson
Additional Tags: Mpreg, Fluff, Grief/Mourning, Found Family, Team, not post-credits-scene compliant, not reality compliant, content warning: deadpool, but all the really bad stuff is just referenced, except the vomit so much, Vomiting, I'm pretty sure Wade is reading these tags so I'm not going into detail in them
Summary: "That's stage four, depression," Al said, sitting on his ankles and chewing very loudly on her sandwich. "But I don't know how the hell you'd tell the difference with you. Besides, vomiting isn't any stage of grief." She thought that over, then added, "Except for the stage that comes after the drinking stage, but you already did that one."
Possibly there will be more chapters - I have another 3000 words already written, and it will take at least another 4000 to get to the part where Wade and Yukio go shopping for cute maternity dresses - but on the other hand, the chances of me hanging onto character voice for a movie I've seen once long enough to write multiple chapters is... low, and that came to a good stopping point, so I posted it complete and guess I will see how getting fanfic posted on the first week of a new movie feels.
Anyway, I shouldn't be doing that because -
5. I'm going on vacation next week! A week in the country with probably minimal internet access. Hopefully I will get many books read and much writing done. But in the meantime I have SO MUCH TO DO before I leave, I don't need Wade Wilson suddenly in my head all the time >:|
