Trickyfish, charity and castles!

Trickyfish! It's alive and well and you can catch the photographic evidence here, thanks to the fabulous slave4chris.

I am completely in love with Lance's new 'do. No more bedhead! There's an actual style happening there! Lance!

Chris is seriously working that big, round velvet onion look. Is that like the softest, roundest head you've ever seen? I want to kiss it, right on top. I bet it's all soft and fuzzy and sweet.

Love me some Trickyfish.

And could they be any cuter? Found this at the JJB - Chris and Lance are going to be in Jamaica for a charity golf tournament at the Beaches Resorts December 5-8, 2002 in Ocho Rios, Jamaica.

They're so cute! Getting in a little couple time under cover of charity work! If Melinda's behind that one, I take back nearly every bad thought about her that I've ever had. *Nearly* every bad thought.

Anyway, here's the link to the story (posted by sassy119), if you're a member of JJB.

And for the rest of the populace, here's the link to the Beaches page where in the lower right-hand corner under "Tee Up for Charity", it mentions the golf event. Follow this link to bid on all-inclusive packages for the event. Money goes to ... Oops. The auction ended yesterday (November 23rd), but you can still check out the site for info if you want to go. Anyway, the money from the auction is going to St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital in Jamaica.

In less exciting, non-Trickyfish news, I'm working on my Castle challenge fic, tweaking and editing. No title. Slight freaking might be going on.

It's gone. I've been working on this friggin' Castle challenge story ALL FRIGGIN' WEEKEND, and it's gone.

I've been saving like a good girl, like you're supposed to, because what happens if the power goes off or the computer fails? Gotta save!

I was done. DONE. Hit save one last time to get the last edit, and friggin' Wordpad had a heart attack. Blahblahblah, shutting down. THE BASTARD. I thought, ok, I'll lose my latest edits, no big deal because I've been saving practically every other word, right. Wrong. Opened up the document after the friggin' thing shut down, and it's got a bunch of gobbledeegook at the top of the page. It's gone.

Gone.

Gone. I can't believe it. If I hadn't loaded up a test page last night I wouldn't have *anything.* But as it is, I'd done a day's worth of edits since the test page went up.

I'm nearly in tears, but I'm trying to reproduce what I can remember. And this sucks, because deep in my heart I know it won't be the same as the stuff I lost.

I think I'm going back to pen and paper after this. I can't take this happening again.

Sun, Earth, Moon - Castle Challenge fic

My Castle challenge fic! Worked like a madwoman to restore what I could remember, and did my best with the rest. Thanks to everyone who offered sympathy and 'restore' suggestions. Wordpad doesn't seem to save a recovered copy like Word does, the bastards.

Numerous thanks to scot_ty for read-through and beta duties, and hand-holding earlier when I felt like jumping off the edge. Thanks. :-)

Anyway, I give you Sun, Earth, Moon a tale of obsession, desire and royalty. My first ever AU. JC/Justin, if that influences your fic choices.

Or, you can read it here, behind this conveniently placed cut tag!
