metalphonenix and I couldn't resolve the matter on our own, so I'm taking it to livejournal. Basically, WHICH WOULD YOU RATHER HAVE AT HOME?

[Poll #1408157]

You can't choose Completely Naked Lorelai or I Don't Care As Long As She Keeps Her Mouth Shut Lorelai. Those are not options. She can either be pantsless or shirtless. Nothing else.

I'm still making my way through the first 6 seasons of GG and dear god, it has the most annoying music IN THE WORLD. The strummy la-la background music and the themesong that NEVER STOPS PLAYING IN YOUR HEAD. Jesus fuck.

Blah, because I'm bored and there's nothing on TV, let's play that game where you pick one of my fics and give me a timestamp before or after (say, 6 weeks before, or 5 minutes after, whatevs), and I will try to write something. Tags list to your left, and I will do Arrested Quantico or any of my weirdass AUs (SPN, Oregon Trail, Ocean's 11, etc.), but not JOA or Alex squared. Sorry, onlyjustwhisper.

Come on, people. Poe implores you to entertain me!

Alex squared is a special weird AU JUST for onlyjustwhisper, and it's Alex Cabot being ADA for Major Case and meeting Alex Eames. Not a real ship, though, because Alex is post-monkeypaw baby in there. (So little about this paragraph makes sense.)

Do you want the day in Alex's life before she finds A.J., or the day in A.J.'s life before she suddenly finds herself in her new mommy's closet?

Ah, I forgot Alex Earnes.

Don't mind which.

Nah, it's not your fault. Alex squared is really a teeny tiny fandom of one. onlyjustwhisper made me do it!

I went with "moments before A.J. universe-jumps" because fuck it, rules are for losers.

Two's a terrible age, so they keep telling her. Alex doesn't find much comfort in that, since the fact that two is universally acknowledged as a terrible age doesn't make it any less terrible.

"I want play," A.J. says, the third time in five minutes.

"I want to study," Alex says, "and since I'm your mother, you have to listen to me. So I'm going to study, and you can go ... harrass Casey or something."

"I WANT PLAY."

"I said no."

A.J. hurls herself onto the floor and proceeds to scream with such violence that Kressler from downstairs starts yelling at them to shut the fuck up.

Fin will murder both of them if Kressler calls the cops, and Kressler will call the cops if A.J. keeps this up, so Alex tells her, "Okay, fine. Let's play hide and seek."

The noise stops. A.J. sits up and, rubbing her nose with her palm, says, "Hide and seek? I like hide and seek."

"Good. You can hide, and I'll come look for you." A.J. loves to hide. She isn't particularly brilliant at it though, always choosing the front closet where Munch keeps the tiny packs of sugar and creamer he's hoarded from coffee shops in preparation for an apocalypse.

A.J. considers this for a moment, then breaks into a grin. "O-tay! I hide now." She scrambles upright and scuttles out the door, and Alex is momentarily pleased at having outwitted a two-year-old.

Once A.J. is gone, Alex turns back to her books. She only has fifteen minutes before her daughter will start calling for her again. Half an hour, maybe, if she's lucky.

Oh, Alex!

A.J. is so much better off with SVU Alex. Which is probably the most depressing thing I've ever said.
