\o\ You profit, I profit; prophets of Tesco!

So, apparently my brain still doesn't want to come out of its psychotic funk, and pounding away at textbooks is a known cure for life, not for depression. ERGO, LIVEJOURNAL.

Mmm, livejournal. I will trade any cool, kind and amazing soul who'll recommend me/link me to/give me two or three feel good songs to play whilst I chip away at the behemoth structure that is my life a ficlet of around four hundred or so words.

I'm looking for seriously brainless songs, here. Hit me with things that would make Bruce Wayne drive a car really fast down an expressway. Things that Tseng would burn onto a disc just to put through a papershredder*. Things that have a lot of people shouting incoherent, animalistic phrases like "OH YEAH" in the backgroud. I want so many beats per minute that I'll be able to use the song as a Weapon of Mass Vibration. I want so much bass that I can't hear the guitars. Or the vocals. Hip hop and Justin Timberlake and stuff you'd find on Iron Man or Hancock (move bitch, get out 'the way). Party songs. Songs in a language I do not/cannot understand and therefore cannot parse. Songs you secretly dance to while stripping. Or while putting clothes on, if that's your kink.

* though this proces is extremely inconvenient, inefficient, and costly in terms of ordinance

If you don't want to rec them to me with your LJ username attached, you can safely bring to light your Rihanna or Britney Spears collection by posting anonymously. 8D Or if you don't want anyone to know that you want evil!Bruce/tiny!Dick, or something.

Make this vaguely depressed writer happy, and give her songs that will make studying and life less painful while making her do something she truly a) enjoys and b) feels capable of. I don't care if you're on my flist - hell, invite people over if you think that they have a) good music or b) a dire need for fic.

If the fandom's obscure, just ask. :D

*tempts you*

*tempts you all*

Heh. Yeah, that episode is the one that once made me remark to [livejournal.com profile] sweet_n_low47 upon the differences between Bruce's boys: Dick ran away from home and came back with a mullet. If Terry ran away from home, he'd probably come back with an STD.

Because really? He is a saucy wench, and he was out until sunrise with Mel the first time he met her. I absolutely believe there was sex somewhere in that timeframe. And I must now refrain from writing about Terry's many and varied, pre-Dana sexual escapades. *sigh*

But Mel was during Dana, which is what makes me both a) despair and b) celebrate. None of Bruce's original boys would really do that - they (um, I'll except Jason here, because Jason is a weirdass exception to everything) have too much of Bruce's DO GOOD BE GOOD mentality pounded into their faces to try that kind of shit without feeling at least guilty.

Terry? NO GUILT WHATSOEVER. He acts like a... vaguely normal, healthy teenaged boy with little consideration about the consequences of his actions, because he's not so sure that they're, um, a) life changing or b) life damaging.

If Dick'd gone out and slept around immensely while he was dating Barbara, I think Barbara would emasculate him, just before Bruce beat his head into a wall, and maybe just after Jim Gordon hung him. From a tree. With barbed wire.

That does not, however, stop Dickie boy from developing a list of sexual conquests/people he has been sexually conquered by the size of a small paper mountain. Hooray!

Mm, all very true.

*blink* Uh. [erases diatribe about Dana] I'll just shorten the book I wrote on that topic to: I never liked Dana and thought she was wrong for Terry, so I didn't really have an issue with him hooking up with Mel the first time since he and Dana had just had a breakup fight. (The second hook-up was a little hinky, though, because IIRC, he definitely was on-again with Dana at the time.)

*g* I think it's cool that she managed to hang out until Epilogue, but I don't see much special about her - there are very few female DCU characters as is, and even fewer whom I really respect and love (fingers on one hand! Lois! Barbara! Cass! And, um... yes!). Just, PRINCIPLES, Terry, you're the goddamned Batman, have some PRINCIPLES.

Sorta. Kinda. Almost.

My list of favorite DC ladies includes Starfire, Cissie from Young Justice, Renee Montoya, Bette Kane (Flamebird), Toni Monetti (Argent), and Jesse Quick. I also like Mia Dearden (Speedy II), though I haven't read much of her.

My Teen Titans fixation, let me show you it. :P

Just, PRINCIPLES, Terry, you're the goddamned Batman, have some PRINCIPLES.

My brain tells me that should be iconned in some manner, for it amuses me.

Kory's really cool! In this. Um. Huge and half naked kind of way. xD Ajslkfjal RENEE MONTOYA FOR THE WIN. Haven't read much about her, but anyone who's The Question is pretty much A LIST MATERIAL.

I always liked Renee in toon 'verse, but I really fell for her when I read 52. She's awesome.

One day I will get the guts to read 52. ONE DAY.
