You guys! How was this birthday so awesome? I can't even! IT WAS SO AWESOME!
I had all the delicious food, all of it! And also all the presents! My friends got me a multicoloured striped beanie (I can has more hats!

delires, I might really do that hat-picspam \o/) with a matching skarf and they are so soft and warm and I never want to take them off! Oh, and my sister got me the HTTYD DVD! Guess what I'm watching right now? Guess what AU I crave right now? YOUR GUESSES ARE ALL CORRECT!

And you guys are all so amazing, too! Thank you so very very much for all the birthday wishes! Also, you should check out these things!

chaoticallyclev made me the best princess banner and the most awesome icons! I wish I had a tree to hoist so I could express all the feelings properly!

wethepainted drew me a Sherlock! Look at his hair! Look at the code! Look at the skarf! <333 And then

squashbee showed me the Puppy!Checov she's working on! I am so smitten with it! It is the most adorable puppy everrrrr! Oh, and although

angelgazing keeps saying it doesn't count, she wrote me gorgeous tattoo!fic :D

Also also! Not-really-a-birthday-present-but-whatever in the form of PStump being his amazing self! *smishes his tiny face* How is he so adorable?

*Throws confetti* I'm glad your birthday was awesome!!

Also, LOL @ elephant on trampoline. X'D

Ahahah! It my very favourite gif everrrr :DDD

I had to come over and say wow. (And happy birthday, apparently?) You did the art for my bandomvalentine prompt. I couldn't have asked for more. I did, quite literally, clap my hands over it. Absolutely darling.

Little fairy bden and skunky Jon. So cute. My favorite was the one where Brendon is lying on Jon's belly under the tree. The best. The best.

Hee, thank you :D I am so happy that you like what

prettykitty_aya and I did with your prompt! I was truly axcited about this working on it :D

Ahah, that one is also my favourite of the bunch <333

oh wow such talented friends!

im glad you had such an awesome birthday bb!

All my flist is full of talented people! That includes you! :DDD

oh you *smishes*

Happy birthday, birthday twin! <3

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BB!

I wanted to give you a birthday cupcake, but Mr. Caffrey stole it! Don't worry though! Apparently, he stole it for you! <333

O.O I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU DID THAT. OH MY GOODNESS. I DO NOT DESERVE SOMETHING LIKE THAT!!! What can I do for you in turn while lacking in any artistic talent, birthday girl??

THANK YOU SO MUCH AAAAAHHH. ♥♥♥♥♥

IT IS A TRADITION HERE! ALL THE BIRTHDAY PEOPLE GET A BDAY DOODLE! (if you want, I can send you the original via snail mail?)

Lol, no need to give me anything in return... unless you have recs? Recs are always very welcome here! The more the merrier! *is a recs hoarder*

<33333333333

You don't have to do that, you have gone to so much trouble already! Thank you, though, seriously. I am delighted beyond telling. NEAL! CUPCAKE! His hat! His blue eyes and his little blue tie! ♥

Oooh, I do not have any recs that I haven't shared, but I will keep my eyes open! Anything in particular?

It wouldn't be any trouble bb, really!

Mmmm... lemme think.... Oh! Do you know good stories with Billiam in them? I never gave much attention to the TAI side of bandom, but lately I've been craving Billiam genfic :3

♥

You have hit upon one of my specialties, my dear. Strictly genfic? The top of my list as far as no-pairings go would be:

The Cups of Emperors and Nobility, by

formerlydf
In Time, by

harborshore

Sadly there is not a lot that has caught my attention. :-( If you want William-pairing fics, that is a whole different list, and one I will happily compile. I shall see what else I can find for you!!

Girl, you are quick! :D *opens tabs*

I have to confess I've never read any William-pairing fics, but I really want more William in my life so yes, if you could point me in the direction of those fics, I'd be all over that list in a blink! <3

Okay, I am trying not to go overboard here, but I apologize in advance if that doesn't happen. This is also unfortunately heavily weighted toward Gabe/William, because they are my OTP so that's a lot of what I have saved.

Party Games and Goodtime Guys, by

jocondite - William/Gabe. If you only read one fic, this should be the one. It is perfection and joy in fic form.

The Notorious Sorcerer's Penultimate Work, by

cupiscent - William/Gabe. This is also perfection in fic form, but it was written for me by another lover of fantasy, so if magic doesn't do it for you, this may not be the AU for you. If it does, though, you are in for a hell of a treat.

Always Looking Up, by

inlovewithnight - William/various. This is another AU and it tackles some less-than-easy issues, but oh, it is such a beautiful story. It's a great look at William as a character, as well.

Tired Boys and Wired Eyes, by

foreverdirt - William/Travis. I have read this story so many times I know parts of it by heart, and I still quote it sometimes to myself at random moments. It's tour-fic, which in bandom is a pretty solid way to my heart.

untitled, by

joyfulseeker - William/Jon. This is incredibly short, just a tiny ficlet, but it is so pitch-perfect that I still rank it among one of my favourites in bandom.

I Show Not Your Face, by

formerlydf - William/Jon. Harry Potter crossover! This is the fastest way into anyone's heart, right? This story is creative and fantastical and utterly brilliant, and has characters I fell instantly in love with.

skeptics and true believers, by

iphignia939 - William/Patrick. This is another of those stories that I have read over and over again. In case you aren't aware, William and Patrick grew up playing in each other's baby bands. Pete and William met at a show where both Patrick and William were playing (acoustic solo guitar, I believe). This is one of very few stories to explore that time, about being young and full of dreams and songs.

Ships That Crash In the Night, by

iridescentglow - William/Gabe. Another tour fic, this one going all around the world and back home again.

And if you get through all of those that interest you and want more, my recs are here. :-)

(deleted comment)

Yesss! It was the best bday everrr \o/
Oh, you have to watch it! You have to! It's so nice and the characters are all amazing and the design is totes ace!
Oh bb, I'd like that too! I fear it's my fault if we haven't been in touch much lately. I've been a really awful lj friend :( but I promise to try harder from now on! *hugs you tight*

Ahh, it's a very close thing! There are dragons! And a very funny protagonist who has a secret! And a co-protagonist that hits the protagonist aroun- Oh. Oh.

Oh bb :( Let's say we both got a bit distracted, yeah? *glomps you*

Aw, happy belated birthday! And yay bouncy elephant :D

Thank you sweetie! Bouncy elephants are the best :D

HAT SPAM! \o/

That is all.

HAAAAAATS! I'M GOING TO TAKE SO MANY PICTURES \O/

All the love!
