Autumn Feels and Other Miscellany

[themostepotente]

* Under normal circumstances, I would've been sorry to see the summer go. But it was unfailingly hot this year, and I do not function well in extreme heat. Autumn is definitely my favourite season, and we do see a bit of everything here in Michigan. I love the smell of burning leaves. I love Halloween. I love the colour changes. And I love the seasonal pumpkin stuffs at Starbucks. I want to jump in a pile of leaves now ♥

* Finally finished season 7 of Supernatural. Am very eager for season 8. You know, it took me at least three damn tries to get into SPN, and I'm glad I persevered. But man, season 1 was tough to get through.

* Had an awesome fandomish get-together Saturday for Avengers frivolity with tracy7307, valis2, venivincere, isisanubis, kel_reiley, and apple_pathways. We had pizza on Avengers' themed plates, and Tracy totes wore a phake arc reactor. Much fun and silliness was had by all ♥

* Am about 1,000 words into my tw_fallharvest fest fic. It's really kind of refreshing to do fest fics in other fandoms. I had lots of fun writing for the got_exchange and mcshep_match in past years. Am still hoping for a pinch hit for hd_holidays. Have been thinking a lot about writing in Avengers, too. I have a lot of Tony/Loki feels \0/

* Oh, and I kinda went ahead and did this... TMP's Tumblr. I still have no idea what I'm going to do with it, but there it is.

* I have a shittonne of art recs queued. I need a few more hours in my day :P

How is everyone this evening?

Hmm, I found SPN S7 tough to get through... I'm not sure I could describe even a single ep of it if pushed now. Somehow I think I may not be watching 8. S1 and 2 were way better to me *shrug*

What aspects of season seven did you find difficult to get through? I rather liked the Leviathan arc.

Was it all the Bobby dramatics?

Oh, not the Bobby stuff. In fact, I first realised I was developing a 'take it or leave it' attitude about SPN when Weekend at Bobby's was the high point of S6 for me.

There was just nothing that grabbed me about S7, even though I kept trying. The only thing I specifically dislike about the later seasons (not that SPN is alone in it, I've stopped watching other shows I was less invested in because of it) is the intrusive background music that has turned up more and more since they lost actual music. Overall I think it's just been a gradual decline of interest for me.
