I wish I was a mermaid and was friends with all the fish

I've got absolutely nothing done in the past few days, because I've pretty much been mainlining crack Prison Break. I've just started season three, and I've been watching for ... a few days? Maybe a week, all told, since I got stalled partway through season one a while back, but probably a little less. And oh my god is this show addictive. Like, I'm not exactly sure what it is, because it's nothing I can exactly place my finger on, but I really do not want to stop watching. And I'm already getting a little sad, because in nineteen episodes I'll be all caught up, and I'll have to wait for new episodes. And I'm not sure I can do that. I need my fix, dammit!

Also, I'm (remarkably) mostly gen-ish about the show, with a few notable exceptions. Because there's Alex/Michael, which sol_se already got me hooked on, and Sucre/Maricruz, which is obviously the true Prison Break OTP (and shut up, I don't care if she's not on the show anymore, THEIRS IS A FOREVER LOVE), and I kinda have this burning desire just to get Linc laid, but the pairing that's really hooked me - hard - is Kellerman/Sara. I know, I'm going to hell, whatever. And I'm about to start searching out fic for them, but the thing that really kind of baffled me, when I, um, maybe went looking for fanvids on YouTube, is that most of the vids I found were these sappy, romantic AUs. And, I mean, I'm all for creating your own story if canon isn't giving you the one you really want, but heartfelt declarations of love? Is not why I ship them. (Though there may be a part of my brain that wants implausibly happy, fluffy fic. Whatever, the heart wants what it wants.)

Anyway, momentarily denied my fix while talumin is asleep, I decided to watch Private Practice, because, hey, Paul Adelstein!

Also: speaking of Prison Break fanvids? I may be, um, working on a kind of ridiculously cracky season two vid. A couple of days ago I had iTunes open, and I saw the song, right, and I thought, wow, I wonder if that would be any good for a Prison Break crack vid? And then I thought, no, probably not. But then I played it anyway. And it is ... so very completely perfect. That is, as long as you view Prison Break as being almost completely made of crack, which obviously it is. So now I am doomed, because I really have to make it; most of it already exists in my head, so all I have to hope is that I can get it to translate. And ... it just makes me happy, you know? And they say being an addict is a bad thing.

And ... I don't have any Prison Break icons? I must rectify this immediately.

Dammit, sol_se, I do not need a new fandom! STOP TRYING TO CONVINCE ME PRISON BREAK IS FULL OF CRACK, I AM NOT LISTENING LA LA LA LA.

Between the vids and the macros and the icons, and a couple of excellent, actually non-cracky vids I've watched (and Wentworth Miller being insanely hot and me still loving Dominic Purcell from Raw FM), I am trying so hard not to give in and watch it. Because, like, they dress up in costumes because of something or other? Like, a lot? I don't even know. I am pretty sure the show cannot be half as entertaining as my little glimpse into the fandom. But ... if I watched the show, I could be in the fandom. I DO NOT NEED THIS, OKAY, I HAVE REACHED MY FANDOM QUOTA. I am so torn. Maybe I should just go watch the vids again?
