Beta? With stories of batshit and funny

[misscam]

I got a 1200 words post-Disquiet BSG fic I wrote this afternoon and I'm unsure if my regular beta has seen the episode and I don't want to spoil her, so would anyone be willing to have a go at it? And preferably before next episode probably smacks me with something new? ETA: Thank you, got :D

Meanwhile, Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich manages to stay special. Because apparently corruption allegations against him is a plot to raise taxes. Suuuuuuuuuure. That makes sense - in batshit land! Still, can't complain he doesn't bring the funny.

lotus79 directed me to this story from before Christmas, which features badass Maori catching some would-be robbers, one robber's mum turning up, a flyswatter and a great deal of feel-good about idiots facing justice.

I love New Zealand quite a bit, I do.

Now off to raiding 25man Naxxarams in World of Warcraft - mama's got herself a shiny new polearm, too. Bring it, undead!

*offers services, as he doesn't have anything better to do today other than cleaning the house... which will take all of half an hour, tops*

You and both offered fairly fast, so mind if you both have a look? That way typos and stupidity on my part can more easily be weeded out. It shouldn't take too long, it's a short fic.

I'd be willing to beta for you, but you probably want another author who's prolific enough for you to have a feel of their work. If you need someone, though, I'm here, and probably will be until late this evening.

Rod Blagojevich is a really special person, and his Mommy made sure he knew that when she brought him up XD.

That robber story is really kind of fantastic, in the same way that having masked vigilantes who think they're the watchmen running around San Diego is fantastic.

Haha, yeah, she'd be about the only person left in Illinios that would still like him, it seems. 8% approval rating OW.

At least the security guy was there by chance really, and not actually vigilant-ing about nornally. Because that is rather fail, I would have to agree, unless you're in a comic book.

NP. I wouldn't mind. You can probably just send it to miri_d@livejournal.com, and I'll get it.

I have to run out of the house for a bit because Mom forgot the rental car needed to be back in five minutes, but I'll get to it once I get home.

Sent, lemme know if you don't get it.

And no worries, I don't need it done today. just want it out before next episode changes it all, you know?

You're a star.

Yay, new BSG fic from you!

Have fun WoWing!

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Heh, I wrote it because Saz was bouncing stuff from her fic off on me and it suddenly got me in the mood.

I plan to, yes ;)

[falena]

Well, I'll have to thank her then. Come to think of it, I should go stalk her LJ and see if she updated her fic too.

*is greedy*

:D

[misscam.livejournal.com]

I was just helping her with some bits, don't think she's done for posting yet. :P

You stalker you.

[falena]

Obviously I'm just too damn impatient.

"Oh %^# there's my mum."

BEST CRIME DETERRENT EVER. (Combined with flyswatters.)

[lily-winterwood.livejournal.com]

Woo! Can't wait until you've posted it. :]

Blago is seriously starting to creep me out now, as much as he's believing in his own delusions.

Oh man, it's so sad I live in Illinois and my local news continues to cover this crap even more than national carriers.
