Procrastinating all right!  
Iconizing is fantastic, it just sucks when you've got to make icons less than 40Kb to be able to load them on LJ.

*le sigh*

So, since I was in a shitty mood for the whole day, I actually managed to put myself halfway through the outline for Snapshots (present day is now 60,000 words, past day is around 30,000... don't ask now XD), and I've also closed the casting for the most important roles in the story! Hooray for me! *grins* Prologue out at the end of this week if I find a volunteer to beta it...




MAJOR PRESENT DAY ROLES




Jensen is now a majoring student in phsycal therapy. He's a sweet, shy and very reserved sort of guy who, despite his emo-ness, tries to get on and about with life as if he didn't bear the many scars of a very traumatic past, both physically and emotionally. Jensen shares a house with three very important people...




1 - Sophia is now twenty four and as much an unapologetic bitch as she was when she was in high-school. Figures some things never change! :P A proud lesbian, Sophia is Jensen official fag-hag and best girlfriend since kindergarten - they live in each other pockets and she has had her own share of baggage coming from Jesnsen's traumas. She's an artist, and she's majored in Visual arts at college.




2 - Christian Kane, 27, singer and musician. He has met Jensen and Sophia during their freshman year, he was their RA. He also owns the house where they all live, because his parents run a real estate agency in LA, and he works part time at a physiotheraphy gym club, where has gotten Jensen to follow a practical course through moaning, bitching and blackmailing. Chris is a manslut in every sense of the word, unless you count, of course...




3 - Steve Carlson, 28. Don't mention Steve to Chris. Unless you want to get physically hurt. Steve owns a bar with his cousin, Chad Lindberg, he plays guitar and piano and has an uncanny ability to read people's minds. Chris and Steve have something very casual going on, or so they say. Steve has moved into their house six months prior, after being kicked out of his own place but no one as actually acknowledged it. Yet.




Jared. He's nineteen, has no intention to go to college and he is the sweetest, most naive and oblivious gay boy in the universe. Now I can't say much about him, or I'll give away all the story ... but yeah. Since it's a Jsquared is not exactly hard to do the math. Somehow, he'll meet Jensen, and somehow, he'll turn his world upside down.




Sandy McCoy, 19, dreams of being a model and with the sweet, girl-next-door look, when she is really the most mature and patient woman in the universe to put up with Jared four-year-old hyperness. They've been through high-school together and they've also had some fumbled sex experiments that led to very embarassing moments, on both their parts. She's wants to make it big in LA, and for that she needs a proper portfolio... booked at...




Morgan Digital Arts studio, owned by the most glamouros photographer in LA, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, teacher of Visual Arts at UCLA and Sophia's thesis professor, and now that (as he said) he's totally lost his mind, Sophia's boss.


MINOR PRESENT DAY ROLES




Chad Lindberg. Owns the bar with his cousin Steve, but manages it almost all himself. He's very into music and has been on two Lynyrd Skynyrd tours as roadie. He's also a hell of a manager, knows everyone, and gets Steve & Chris all the gigs in town.




Samantha Ferris. Sophia and Jensen's therapist. And I'll say no more here :P




Alexis Bledel. Sophia's ex girlfriend from college, who even if thecnically isn't present day, will make more appearances. Um, not a very nice girl... totally not a Gilmore girl in this AU!!




Tom Welling. Jensen's ex from High School. And yeah... no more said about him either, or I'll give away the whole story. He's also a huge past day character, but the past day cast pictures, with Jensen, Sophia and Tom during their Senior high school year will have to wait for tomorrow, I'm afraid! :p

titheniel: 30STM | Jared Leto | Fingerbite[info]titheniel on August 13th, 2007 09:16 am (UTC)
It'll come out soon, dear! :) Thanks for the encouragement! :PPP I just need to find a beta willing to put up with the general darkness of the themes, and my mis-spelling... XD

Amy[info]ames1010 on August 13th, 2007 04:07 am (UTC)
I LOVE IT ALREADY!!!!
titheniel: DA | Alec | Not yet broken[info]titheniel on August 13th, 2007 09:18 am (UTC)
Awww love thank you so much!! ♥ I am just trying to find a beta and if I manage, I'll post the first chapter by the end of this week!

how are you doing btw? *smishes* miss you!
Amy[info]ames1010 on August 13th, 2007 06:23 pm (UTC)
I am doing okay...kinda down, but I guess that's to be expected, considering. I'll be okay!
titheniel: SPN | Cast | Gag Reel - winter ♥[info]titheniel on August 13th, 2007 07:27 pm (UTC)
Well, yeah, I guess so...

You know that whenever you feel like talking I'm right here with you! ♥
indusnm[info]indusnm on August 13th, 2007 12:02 pm (UTC)
I'd volunteer to beta, but I'm going to be moving this week, so that's out of the question- maybe chapters in the future?
titheniel: KANE | Damn those eyes[info]titheniel on August 13th, 2007 12:50 pm (UTC)
That'd be amazing! I could also wait and give you the prologue once you're settled in, it's not really urgent and it will give me more time to fine tune it! :) The story is very dark tho, deals with very sensitive topics, (http://titheniel.livejournal.com/55337.html#cutid1 - in this post you'll find out more about it) so I wouldn't want for you to get into it if it's not your cup of tea - I'd totally understand! :))

Thank you so much for volunteering anyway! ♥
indusnm[info]indusnm on August 13th, 2007 09:12 pm (UTC)
Actually, I may just be the perfect person to do this- I've done some suicide counseling- it was over the phone, but I developed a relationship (therapist kind) with some callers, and some of them were victims of rape, domestic abuse and/or incest.
Anyway, if you send me things in the next week or so, I can be a content beta, but not a grammar one as that takes me more time, which I don't have. I was supposed to do more packing last night, which implies that I've done more than two bags, doesn't it? But I was struck by the migraine from hell... Anyway, I can tell you if what I read is like what I've heard, if the experiences track. I sometimes think of doing dark stories like that, but am worried I'll break confidentiality and write something I heard without meaning to, so I stick to betaing it.
To be totally honest, I have some personal experience with diagnosed anxiety disorders, etc. that I keep planning to put in a story, except I'm not sure I can visit that hell again. But I love to read about it- it's like knowing you're not unique in the struggle to overcome...
So back to what I was saying, I'd love to be your beta! And I keep planning to build a permanent relationship betaing someone's work, which I haven't. I've betaed people's stories, but not on a quid pro quo, you're on my flist, let's meet in person at a comiccon basis (not that I've ever been to one of those!)
Anyway, if you lived in the DC area, I'd say let's get together for a Spn premiere night. Must find someone to watch that with, my roommate is not a fan!
So, to recap, will beta any time on a content only basis... Editing and grammar will have to wait until next week!
titheniel: SPN | Simon Said | Brothers - catch you[info]titheniel on August 13th, 2007 10:43 pm (UTC)
OMG!

I am really blown away. I could never, ever in a million years have hoped for someone as involved as you to beta this story. I am myself involved in support groups, and therpaistic consuelling for rape victims, enve thought I'm no specialist. In my town there's a cell of a national underground treatment group to help the victims go on with their life, but I am by no means a consuellor!

I wrote Snapshots because I sometimes feel the need to let out that sort of darkness. I understand your concern, as it was much mine, not to let people's personal experience out in the open with your writings. This is what took me the longest to write, I think.

I'm sorry to hear you have to deal with such rough stuff, aswell. If you ever need a shoulder or a willing ear, I'm always here to listen. :) People usually say I'm good at it, whatever it means.

And *dammit!* - I'd love meeting you. Damn, I really, really do. But I'm Italian, and that as of now it's kind of impossible! *pouts in the corner* but I have an IM - it's a poor subsitute, but if you wanted to talk more about the fic and get to know ourselves better, I'm all for it, little as I can offer!

If you give me an email address I could send you a very short prologue (it's like 1000 words) to check if you'd like the style of it or not. I've read it through and I don't think there are any major grammatic mistakes, but I will most definitely postpone the fic until you're ready to beta it, because now that I've found you, I am *so not* going to pass up this wonderful opportunity.

Many, many thanks again from the bottom of my heart!! &heart;
indusnm[info]indusnm on August 14th, 2007 04:07 am (UTC)
Sure, it's indus_nm@yahoo.com
Great, now let the games begin!
titheniel: SPN | Cast | Jared green shirt[info]titheniel on August 14th, 2007 09:17 am (UTC)
Email sent dear!!

*huggles* Thank you so much again! ♥
indusnm[info]indusnm on August 14th, 2007 10:56 am (UTC)
Are you sure? I didn't receive anything...
titheniel: KANE | SteveandChris - more than I deser[info]titheniel on August 14th, 2007 10:59 am (UTC)
that's so weird!! I sent it at [indus_nm@yahoo.com] - now I just forwarded it. This is soooo weird. Let me know if you get it this time around!! =/ Sorry I'm making you wait!!
Much love! ♥
indusnm[info]indusnm on August 14th, 2007 11:18 am (UTC)
Hm, this is strange... Did you do indus_nm, not indus-nm...? It has to be underscore(_) not dash (-).
Although- perhaps it's just delayed. Every now and then that happens.
titheniel[info]titheniel on August 14th, 2007 11:42 am (UTC)
Nope, I've checked and the address is correct. SO weird. Hope it's just a random delay!
*pouts*
indusnm[info]indusnm on August 14th, 2007 09:58 pm (UTC)
Ok- how about you send me your email address, and then delete the message- no one else will see it but since it was in reply to me, it'll show up in my inbox.
This is incredibly weird.
Indus
titheniel: DA | Alec | Pout[info]titheniel on August 14th, 2007 10:00 pm (UTC)
don't worry, I have no probs in giving out my email address: it's

[[titheniel@libero.it ]]

honestly, I'm a bit worried. Isn't it the weirdest thing ever!? *is shocked*
paulabm: titheniel[info]paulabm on August 13th, 2007 06:14 pm (UTC)
wow!

OH BABE!

*smiles hugely wide*

Where does that icon come from!?!?

*blushes like crazy*

Thank you so much anyway! *smishes* hope you'll like the fic!
paulabm[info]paulabm on August 14th, 2007 05:01 pm (UTC)
I mades it. For my titheniel. Some site. Wait... I don't know it but you can check my profile and then there's a "banner" with a star and you can check the website.
Sorry.

In amongst my packing and moving back to uni, I'l be loking forward to updates on this, so yeah :) I have a feeling it'd be rather difficult for me not to like this fic, it has the "fabtastic fic" vibe all over it *g*

Awww thank you! :D The story is up now and it's keeping me awake at night, LOL - seriously, I shouldn't get so worked up about a fic!

Don't worry, you'll catch up with everything when you have time - god knows my own LJ time has been cut remarkably short these days *pouts*

*huggles* thank you for the comment!! :) Means a lot!
paleogymnast[info]paleogymnast on September 22nd, 2007 06:25 am (UTC)
I'm loving this verse so much, I look for updates several times a day, every day (yes, I'm that pathetic). And now, your dramatis peronae has me SOOOO intrigued!! We have a clue as to who the major players areand now we just have to see how it fits together!!
titheniel: SPN CAST | Jensen | Gorgeous eyes[info]titheniel on September 22nd, 2007 08:56 am (UTC)
Wow, thank you! I'm really thrilled that you're enjoying this so much, it means everything really! I'm sorry I can't update with the speed required, LOL, stupid things as work and RL get in the way! ;) But I can promise there won't be long dry spells without fic.. generally when I post a WIP is so I know that people are reading it and will kick my ass if I don't update, hehe!

*hugs* thank you so much again for the fb!

Just wanted to drop a note here. I've had this fic lined up to read for a while since I read the prologue a while back but I'm only just finding the time to catch up with it now. I've read a couple of your other fics but for some reason didnt twig that this was one of yours too.

Thought the idea to do the cast list with a mini bio was awesome and cause it's late here I told myself I would take a peek at the list but only start the fic tomorrow.. now that I've read the list I dont think I can wait til tomorrow cause my curiosity is raised (and I know it killed the cat but I have 4 lives left) so I'm gonna cave and get to reading 'til I can read no more tonight...
titheniel: SPN CAST | Jensen | Beautiful smile[info]titheniel on December 27th, 2007 10:29 am (UTC)
Hey, hi! :) hehe thank you! I'm very happy that you decided to take a look at the cast list... believe it or not it was the hardest thing to put together, looking for pictures that matched the mental images that I already had and all that... So I'm extra glad that you've enjoyed it.

now that I've read the list I dont think I can wait til tomorrow cause my curiosity is raised (and I know it killed the cat but I have 4 lives left)
LOL indeed... I must be a walking ghost or something, I'm never able to resist any temptation!! Hope you're going to like the story, dear! ♥
::twiglet::[info]twigletmoo on February 26th, 2008 11:46 pm (UTC)
Ooo, nice to put faces to some of the less familiar names. And it's nice seeing the pics you've chosen for the people I did recognise - like JDM, I'd not seen that picture of him, and couldn't really visualise him in your fic, but in that pose up there, he looks every bit the photographer/artist!

*squishes*
