So, trip pictures are up at my flickr, though not tagged or labeled yet.
I'm in a fic-writingy mood, but have no particular inspiration. Anyone want to hit me up with Five Things ideas?
Here's one to start things off: five things Leah Archer's never told anyone.
1. That her little sister has superpowers, duh. Her parents would just be freaked out, although they're probably going to find out soon if Leslie keeps trying to run a one-girl magic wildlife rescue out of the basement. She hasn't even told Steph, who's basically her best friend now that Allie's found Jesus.
2. That she's kind of, maybe, a little jealous of Leslie. Mostly because she read a lot-- like, a *lot*-- of YA sci-fi and fantasy when she was Leslie's age, and had sort of secretly hoped for something cool and magical to happen to her until she got too old. Twelve-and-under is the age to be for that stuff, though-- look at Lucy Pevensie, or Meg Murry, or Eilonwy. Nothing cool ever happens when you're sixteen.
3. That she made out with Brian Henderson in the prop closet last January. Ew.
4. That she's planning on getting a tattoo of a devil's trap as soon as she's old enough or can get a reasonable fake ID. Possession is freaky. She'd like to avoid it. And anyway, it would look really cool.
5. That she's been emailing back and forth with this guy John put her in touch with named Bobby Singer. Hunting sounds dangerous and scary and kind of gross, lifestyle-wise, but somebody needs to know as much as possible about the stuff that's out there, and Bobby says it's a good idea to start learning as young as you can. And maybe, if she's lucky, she can learn enough to keep her sister safe.

3. Even if he doesn't have tools handy, he can polish the chrome. And clean the takeout containers out of the back seat. And reorganize the weapons in the trunk. What? Letting hotel rooms get messy is totally different.
4. Find a range and get some target practice in. When they're far enough out in the boonies, he can just put some Coke cans on a fence, but there's something to be said for real target shooting. Besides, there's usually a bunch of dudes with good war stories hanging around who'll offer to but him a beer when he out-shoots them.
5. Watch TV. There's always a Law & Order rerun *somewhere.*
