Rah Rah Rah ! (;

That  quote from an old post Lile wrote when someone asked her about our relationship and I really liked it.  I decided it was perfect for this post because this is going to be a Lile-centric post.




Give Me An L!
So, we said goodbye to Bellum and I guess something new and unexpected is on the horizon now,but I'll wait patiently.

  This serial made me a true believer in the SH-LILE Paradox line--which by the way Lile coined during TDOLL here.  I remember I had just started writing HMLIS with Jonah and his blind friend and then Lile has a character named Jona dating a blind guy. It was so bizarre. I am forever in awe of the worldbuilding, deconstruction and myth building in this series. My favorite thing is how all of her stories take place in NY, but each one feels unique. I really liked how she pushed limits and boundaries and it's kind of inspiring me,


Give Me an I ! 
One thing Lile mentioned in her post is taking out violence because of so much IRL violence and I sympathize with this so much. I had the same issue during Vice and even now with Compulsion. I mean there are a lot of uniformed people in positions of power taking advantage in this serial. I mean when I heard the Serial topic I was like....really ? I have a feeling I'll find out I'm using the word court martial wrong.

Give Me an L!
UL is going so well....I'm afraid to jinx it. It's 4 chapters long so far and I'm just not sure when it will go up. Hopefully within the next 6 months. I'm having so much fun with it.

Give Me an E!
In my next post you're going to meet my muse. She's a little darker than CPShawna

*Drum Roll*
Okay, one last Lile thing....I kind of have a gift for her (and you!). Have you all noticed I've been referencing old posts in this post ? Well, that's because as I am re-reading UL posts and chapters for UL3  I realized that Playlist.com shut down and all of my UL playlists are gone. Thank goodness the songs were in the posts, so  I've been slowly rebuilding them on Spotify to create a mood playlist.

When Lile announced the end of Bellum was near I decided to do the same for Lost Angels and Litany Lane.

. Some songs are missing because they aren't on Spotify, but for the most part they are in order. And you guys...these have been my writing music recently.

Linda Leigh's Lost Angel's Playlist (60 songs)
Linda Leigh's Litany Lane Playlist (139 songs)

Okay, back to Compulsion

Chapter 19
So last chapter Maxwell did cocaine and made out with one of his inmates so...time for him to go to  Ft. Perch for an evaluation where he is probably going to get fired. A lot of this dialogue can be read in Scandal voice.

UL GIF update + 17/18

Commitment

You guys, I kind of suck. I really need to commit to actually posting. I have the chapters, but all I want to do is edit and hold on to them in case I want to change something later--in fact I've already created a huge logical fallacy, but it's nothing any of you all would notice. As you'll see in the GIF update below, i've got other things (okay, thing) stewing, so I want to commit to posting and  I'm making that commitment here. Once a week at the least. 

Obligatory UL3 Update in GIF Form

Sometimes I look at my laptop like:

It's also  a lot of me screaming:

and even some....

I'm also really into the UL3  playlist. I started it a year ago and it's only 15  28 songs so far but I love getting to use fluffy romance and pop songs.


Recap
I actually kind of rewrote these with a few reminders of past events.

All you need to remember is that a sandstorm comes through Ft. Harmony and Maxwell let's Haley (who's been sleeping outside) sleep in his room because Maxwell is pulling an all nighter preparing for his visit to been called to Ft. Perch.

Also, Alan is undercover in the Mjollner trying to find Sara and Rayne's baby.
