I finally broke 20,000 words on the Epic SPN fic of weirdness... I figured out how to do the scene about consent, at least a major part of it, and I should have a pretty slow day at work tomorrow, so I can jot scene outlines during my breaks.
In other news, the 'Four Vessels in a Car' fic is trying to take up residence in my brain.![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
ellen_fremedon lent me some books on the history of Iceland, and Byock's Viking Age Iceland is just fascinating reading. There's a science fiction idea ever few pages, just like in 1491: New Revelations of the Americas before Columbus. I think anyone who wants to do some fantasy/science fiction world-building should read them both, because they cover cultures that are very very different from the standard faux-medieval.
Also, have a snippet from the Vessel story, since it at least stands alone as a scene -- nothing else I've written in weeks does: ( Sam talks to Gabriel through his Vessel's dreams )
