- Work $ drama afoot that doesn't seem to involve me.

- Going to finish that alphabet meme today.

- "Need" to get a new fencing bag, ticket for next Dances of Vice, Isengart album, Terminus plane ticket.

- My next Torchwood fic should be (sorry for the severe shorthand on some of these, but yes your input is requested):
* the thing about Lahore for the ficathon that's due in August
* Depressing post-Exit Wounds Jack/Ianto fic that I think of as being at the very beginning of the whole Face of Boe continuum (I don't think anyone else would see it that way, but that's where it's coming from for me).
* Jack. Ianto. Gun range.
* Military sabers (seriously, this fandom was made for my obscure knowledge). This involves severe snarkiness from Owen for some reason.
* How to kill a man with a pool cue (again, I win at obscure knowledge). This involves the rather alarming degree to which Ianto just doesn't get phased by, well, anything.
* More Annie. I'm not sure I should, but I've got a lot of extraneous stuff on her/them in my head.

- So, I'm getting fabulous pants made. Do I want dark grey, black or dark blue? I know black is the reasonable answer. I assure you there is, however, NOTHING reasonable about this situation.

Dark grey.

[torenheksje.livejournal.com]

I vote dark grey for the pants.

[fleur.livejournal.com]

Dark blue.

[weirdquark]

Dark grey. They're classy without being too formal.

[redstapler.livejournal.com]

I vote dark grey.

Black pants can be found more easily.

I'm with the dark gray school, so nice. Also Jack + Ianto + firing range = major hot. Can't wait to read it!

hahahaha. This is charming. I've got something up that I posted last night that should feed the Torchwood bug if you're into that.

[stardragonca.livejournal.com]

High on list to do today is read that. I am so into that!
:D

[stardragonca.livejournal.com]

I've read it three times all the way through. So very moving.
You are very good. Thank you again.

NOTHING reasonable

[stardragonca.livejournal.com]

Dark blue? No,grey. Grey. Definitely grey. Yes. Dark blue? No. Grey.

[dipping_sauce]

Dark grey.

[stardragonca.livejournal.com]

Wait,was that an option? She didn't say...

[stardragonca.livejournal.com]

Oh,yes,dark grey. Yes,yes.(When in doubt,reread instructions.)

[tsarina.livejournal.com]

Pants: I vote dark grey!

Torchwood: Jack/Ianto/gun range! (I mean, how could I not love that idea? This is Texas! Everyone has guns, and gets arrested at some point.)

[stardragonca.livejournal.com]

Dark Grey.

[marchek.livejournal.com]

I also vote dark grey. However be certain that it is not that light Confederate grey that a lot of Civil uniforms are made of.

You can always dye it if you decide later on that you want them black.

[rm.livejournal.com]

I really don't want them black -- I think it's just a reasonable option that must be considered.

As to teh grey, they have entirely different sets of fabric for their non-military stuff, so it's very dark and not that dumb color.

[stardragonca.livejournal.com]

Reasonable options-phhhht! :)

[tommx.livejournal.com]

Grey.

And as for your next Torchwood fic...

Jack meets Marvin from Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy and permanently cures his depression.

[rm.livejournal.com]

I don't do funny.

Like, really, don't do funny.

[tommx.livejournal.com]

ah, ok.

Truth be told it was a lame idea anyway, but I've had a rough week. Best I could come up with.

[rm.livejournal.com]

Fair enough. Although I do totally blame you for the depressing fic from hell that I wrote most of at work yesterday.

[tommx.livejournal.com]

Haven't had a chance to read it yet, but will.

[bladderwrack.livejournal.com]

Dark grey. :D. It is the best of colours.

[threewalls]

I'm looking forward to your obscure knowledge enriching your Torchwood fic.

[ladyofthelog.livejournal.com]

Dark grey!

[john-h-holliday.livejournal.com]

grey! john always made a point of wearing grey so as not to wear black and white.
*is hopelessly biased*
*is also Still looking for a grey bowler after several years*

[stardragonca.livejournal.com]

I have never seen a grey bowler,that I am aware of(perhaps I saw it in B&W,and thus missed it.)
Good luck with that!

[john-h-holliday.livejournal.com]

I found several, but they did not fit. Alas.
I am ever-hopeful.
