mundane monday

To do:
- write - at least get partway into Mako's next section for Anchor and Anchorage
- get tax stuff done
- financial advisor prep
- eat
- pick up parcels from post office
- get cardstock prints done for quilt paper piecing project 2015
- sew arrows together for quilt: Do You KNow Where You're Going To?
- cut blocks for Mondrian Dreaming

This is my to-do list on a day when I am feeling rather less than 100% and stayed home to try to get better.

I don't do 'sick' very well.

Monday Recs - Stargate SG1, Arrow, and MCU

It wasn't until later, when Teal'c asked the question, that George gave it any thought. Though, in highdsight, it was obvious that a Jaffa would notice a mark on someone's forehead.

Hammond explains his faith with the simplicity of a man who believes with his core, and Teal'c questions with both the suspicion of those burned by religion, and yet with the curiosity of those who truly have open minds to new ideas, and it's well worth reading for a respectful, in-character discussion between two mature men who understand that sometimes finding the common points of faith is more important than the insistent that the only right opinion is your own.

Reeling from being stood up on a blind date, Felicity sort of accidentally hits on the brooding guy on the barstool next to hers and adventures ensue.

In true Frea style, this is hilarious and funny and romantic and sweet all at once. I have no idea how canonical the characterisations are - I don’t even watch Arrow - but this was enjoyable and funny and sweet and hot, all at once. Felicity/Oliver, obviously.

easy as ABC by AdrianZ
"It is a beautiful mess and it tastes like a piece of heaven." Maria Hill and Steve Rogers' relationship in 26 short drabbles ficlets, one for each letter of the alphabet.

A series of Steve Rogers/Maria Hill ficlets, structured around an alphabetic prompt. It's not any kind of sequence, alas, because I have the feeling this author could have told an incredible story through a sequence of ficlets. Still, it's short, sweet, and quite enjoyable in their depiction of how their relationship unfolds and works, and how they see each other.
