I hate being sick
Jan. 26th, 2004 02:27 pmI'm really starting to think something is wrong with that damned store. I almost never get sick, yet twice now I've been seriously ill. I'm going to burn it, I swear.
I'll be hiding in my bed most of the day, seeing as the ice has shut everything down and there's no going anywhere to get anything.

jagen13, just b/c I love this sort of thing:
If you've ever watched your favorite DVDs, and then found yourself eager to hear exactly what the actors, directors, writers and even production designers thought about making the episode, the movie, or whatever - you'll know sometimes the best parts of DVDs are hearing the commentaries. Getting into an actor's feelings about the character they play, getting the background behind a writer's plans and metaphors, even just getting the stupid anecdotal stuff that makes you laugh, it's all good.
Pick a fic I've written, any fic, or even a short story arc, if you like, anything I've done and I'll give you the dvd-style "What the hell was I thinking?" commentary thing--though you might want to specify characters, or storyline, or plot. (You can ask more specific questions as well. Or you can not, and just let me ramble on at will.)

I agree totally that it's not entirely intuitive what exactly Yuber and Albert each GET out of any relationship they might have. Albert's easier to figure out because Yuber IS skilled and useful. And to be honest, a lot of my plots come from Yuber, from some quirk of his personality that Albert discovers. They may be told from Albert's pov, but they're YUBER'S stories. :) And he just likes it for the amusement value. When you're as old as he is and care nothing for the baser things like money and political power, what's left but keeping yourself amused?
