Home from VividCon!

So, hey, I was at VividCon this weekend! I... neglected to post and say I was going, and apparently managed to avoid even people who were at the con noticing I was there for much of the weekend, so ... clearly my stealth skills are top-notch?

That said, I did get to hang out with lots of awesome people and watch lots of excellent vids. I would try to recap or name people or something except my internal monologue looks sort of like:

I HAVE ALL THE NEVILLE FEELS, WHAT NEVILLE STORY CAN I--TONY! KIDDIFIED TONY STARK! LET ME SPEND HALF AN HOUR CONTEMPLATING THE PROCESS BY WHICH HE GETS KIDDI--WAIT HOOKER!STILES--WAIT I'M SUPPOSED TO BE WRITING WOLVES--YAY PIMPING PEOPLE INTO GK--AWWW TONY IN A HOSPITAL BED--OH MY GOD ARYA STARK FEEEEEEELS--I NEED TO WATCH HAVEN--AND JUSTIFIED--OH GOD PAPA STILINSKI IS GOING TO KILL DEREK--NO! WOLVES! NATE AND BRAD AND WOLVES!--PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES--CAKE-FLAVORED VODKA--DEFECTIVE VODKA, WHAT EVEN HAPPENED THERE--COMMUNITY FEEEEEEEEEEEEEELS--OH MAN HOMELAND I NEED TO WATCH HOMELAND--NEVILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLE OH GOD I HAVE TO STOP CRYING ABOUT NEVILLE--TONYYYYYYYYYY--WHY ARE THERE NO SPY GAME VIDS THERE SHOULD BE SPY GAME VIDS--OH MAN IT WOULD BE COOL IF SOMEONE MADE A VID OF TREE OF LIFE THAT MADE IT HAVE A NARRATIVE--I DID FIGURE OUT VIRTUAL DUB, HOW HARD CAN IT BE?--NOOOOOOO WOLVES, I'M WRITING WOLVES....

...so it's going to take a while before I can do anything more focused than scraping off the rest of my manicure and attempting to scroll back to the last place I stopped reading on Tumblr.

PS Not that I am writing or plotting any kind of Teen Wolf fic or anything but is there a generally agreed-upon internal chronology of the first season? Dates? If there isn't one that makes sense, does anybody have a theory? I NEED SOMETHING TO WORK WITH. NOT THAT I AM WORKING ON ANYTHING.

Somewhere, Brad is proud. ;)

Me either. *shifty look* The full moons made vague chronology pretty easy, I think? Scott gets bitten the day before the first day of school, which the week of the full moon (falls on a Friday). Then there's a second full moon in 1x08. The Winter Formal happens in 1x11, which would imply being later in the fall, but I've had "Winter" school event happen in late Oct/Nov, so... *shrugs* At least one full month, probably less than two. Which is *insane*.

Ah, spring! That makes sense, because lacrosse is happening. Even if nothing else does. Thanks for the link!

So what are *you* not-writing? (please say hooker!Stiles.... *g*)

Stiles is...disturbingly good at being manipulative, so I can totally see him being strategic like that.

If you were writing this - which you're not - I would totally be asking if there are still werewolves in your hooker!fic. Not that I am. At all.

If last year's unofficial them was VividCry, then this year's was definitely VividFeels.
