Seconds ago I was on the l-word.com fanfic site and I'm not naming fake fanfic pennames but some fucking people write too goddamn much. I don't really like utilizing the favorite authors option too much because I feel it prevents me from reading any new authors on the site. But certain people are writing so many stories that I have no interest in reading, staring at, much less clicking endless pages to search through to find that one rare Danish fic I would want to read.

I can't say Helacious because I think only Sulky and I have written Helacious focused fanfics. Though I am super happy to see Helacious appearing as friends in many of the new Danish fics. I think maybe depending on how S3 develops we could get more exclusive Helacious fanfic. Which would be super groovy. Especially if the fanfic is, you know, written well.

I'm now forty three pages into Part Two of All The White Horses with just two more scenes to complete before it's finished. I might, don't quote me on this, finish the fic late tonight after I have my super boring math class at Sanford Brown. If I don't I'll definitely have the chapter finished by either late Saturday night or Sunday afternoon.

I want Part Two finished and posted before the official premiere. I figure with how long each of the chapters are it will take me around two weeks to finish each of them. Yeah, sort of a long wait but it's necessary for how much I want to fit into each chapter and how much personal time I have to write the story.

The Helacious focused sequel to All The White Horses is sort of forming already in my mind plot wise and I plan on using yet another song as the sort of theme for the fic and using the song to pick the name of the story much like I did with Winter by Tori Amos for All The White Horses.

I'm using the song Girlfriend by Eve 6 as the theme for the Helacious sequel and I'm naming the fic Not Broken which is off a lyric from the song. I know that title isn't grammatically correct but I think using the lyric directly would make the title lamely too long. And I loathe titles that are too long unless they're purposely made long for comedic purposes.

Because I nerdy adore this song and think it is absolutely perfect in terms for describing Alice's feelings for the now deceased Dana and then her difficulties in letting go of their love and relationship and the guilt she feels as she starts to fall in love with Helena. I'm posting the lyrics and I think if you sort of read them in terms of thinking they're from Alice's point of view and how she can't stop thinking about Dana and the love they shared and can she really go on and live her life without her it's sort of poignant. It's nerdy but these lyrics really get across what I'm going to be trying to do in this story.

And, of course, I'm linking the song itself.

Girlfriend by Eve 6 song lyrics:

You're really gone, girlfriend
The dryer's on, amen
And I'm alone for the first time

You left a sock, girlfriend
Where's the pair, broken
Are you aware that I'm missing you

But I can't run to you no more
To catch me when I'm falling
I know I have to let you go

But I will not be broken
No, I will not be broken
But keep the slowly fading memories

This place is strange, empty
You did your time, time plenty
And the walls are bare where your pictures hung

But I can't call you up no more
And no, we can't just be friends
But now it's time to let you go

But I will not be broken
No, I will not be broken
And keep the slowly fading memories, memories
I'm keeping these memories

But I can't run to you no more
To catch me when I'm falling
I know I have to let you go
But I will not be broken

For every tear a lesson learned
Every good time golden
But now it's time to let you go

And I will not be broken
And I will not be broken
No, I will not be broken
But keep the slowly fading memories
