So I started a fic a while ago called To Catch a Diary Thief. Alas, Veronica Mars degenerated into something that could simply NOT feed the urge to finish the dang thing (despite the fact that I DO have it all planned out, sigh). Anyhoo, I DO have two more chapters finished up (with the fifth a work in progress); I can't guarantee that I'll ever finish this, but I wondered if anyone was interested in reading the next two chapters. In the first one we meet up with Troy, and the second is mostly Logan/Wallace. They're just sitting on my computer unread by all but my beta-readers.

Anyway, just putting it out there.

Is there anyone who downloads the episodes of VM who can do me a favor? Considering how it ended, I'm okay with watching the L/V, Logan-non-Parker scenes, so I was wondering if anyone who downloaded it, still has them and doesn't mind, would give me the times that the above scenes starts so that I can watch them, clip them in good quality without having to sit through couply Logan/Parker or any Veronica/Piz.

Yay, myalltheworld got them all for me. Woohoo!!!!

I'd really, really appreciate it. Heck, I might even retroactively do chemistry write-ups for their scenes.

I decided to grab most of the wallpapers I've ever made (there were a few that I just don't know what I was thinking, so they're not included). They vary in quality as some go back at least five years. Some are pretty simple, others not so much. They're from different fandoms with an emphasis on a few. I have different sizes 800x600, 1024x768, 1280x800 for some of them, some only are a few sizes, some only one, some all three. Just click on the categories below. (I'm sorry for the pre-cut length, but figuring out the html to get all of the different sizes was a bitch to figure out and this was the best way I could do it.)

So, I'm updating my L/V chemistry journal and I'm on AEFC and I noted how I especially noted the direction (but didn't point out the director), so out of curiousity I went a'looking and whaddya know? Nick Marck did the duty ... he of:

- the famous hallway scene in 2.02 Driver Ed
- the gentle, naturally couply-scenes of 3.07 President Evil
- the awesomeness of the reunion scene in 3.10 Show Me the Monkey

I just started putting these write-ups in my lj in S2, and while there are a few from S1, many are missing as are some from S2. So I was wondering, should I put all of the write-ups in here a bit at a time over the hiatus?

ETA: Since there's not that much interest, I don't think I'll put them here, but start a new LJ account for just the chemistry and that way they'll be in order. I'll work on setting it up this weekend and start putting them throughout the hiatus.

Anyone who hasn't read them, and is reading them now, I would love feedback. It's awesome.

Here's the latest batch of my Logan/Veronica analysis as seen (or will be seen) in The LoVe Shack Breakdowns.

( And the straws return. )

While typing up responses to my last Logan/Veronica post, I came to a clearer picture of where I think things are going and wanted to put it all together in some sort of cohesive form. Here is that attempt to do so ... ( behind the cut. )

Here's the latest batch of my Logan/Veronica analysis as seen (or will be seen) in The LoVe Shack Breakdowns for the new arc.

( Now I REALLY want that five-year arc, damnit! )

Listen to this song on repeat.

Thanks Grey's Anatomy, I'd convinced myself to NOT listen to this song non-stop knowing what was coming in 3.12, but nooooooo, you had to use it last night and remind me of the pain!

Title: To Catch a Diary Thief
Characters/Pairing: Logan, Veronica, Wallace, Troy, Cherry Winslow (OC), Annabelle Bonham (OC), Logan/Veronica
Rating: NC-17 overall; this chapter, NC-17
Word Count: 4,009
Summary: Veronica works on the case of the stolen diary, unaware that Logan and Wallace are independently working on it as well. Throughout the investigation, Veronica and Logan are coming to terms with their relationship.
Spoilers: References sprinkled throughout to events in seasons one and two. The only nod to season three is that she's working at the library; she definitely still has the LeBaron because I hate the Saturn. It is sooo not Veronica Mars.
Timeline: I conceived of this story before season three started and this is the way I had hoped Veronica would be with Logan, so although this story takes place around early season three, it is not canon beyond the end of season two. So, yes, Wallace's roommate does not exist in my universe.
Disclaimer: Rob Thomas, Warner Brothers, The CW, they own ... not I. This is just for fun, not profit.
Notes: (1) I would like to give huge thanks to my group of amazing betas who reread chapters multiple times and did so much to make this story a thousand times better than it would have been without their generous help. I am so very, very grateful for all you've done: Sowell, Polartruckin (Belinda), JaneDtwo and SeluciaV (Alli), you are all beyond awesome. (2) ~italics~ indicate what would be Veronica's voiceovers on the show. (3) Like Veronica Mars, I am fond of titles that are pun-laden and/or derived from pop culture sources. The story title is a take on the 1955 romantic comedy starring Cary Grant and Grace Kelly, To Catch a Thief. All chapter titles will be similarly pun and/or pop-culture related. If you're so inclined, guess the reference.
