Jack & Nina || Can't Catch Me Now

“I'm here, I'm there, I'm everywhere. But you can't catch me now ..” 

-------------------------------- 

HD makes it pretty :) 

 Hello, everyone! :)

 Almost 4 months into the new year and I've FINALLY posted a new video. I'm sorry it's been such a long time since my last upload. My life has been a bit busy which has made time for editing difficult. 

Sense it's the year 2024, I figured it was perfect to have my first video of the year be the show that got me into editing in the first place, 24! 

 Guys, this show means the world to me. It's honestly changed my life. Forever grateful. 

These two characters inspired me to edit. I think my edits with then end up being some of my best work. Their complicated relationship is so incredibly fun to edit with. When I first heard this song, I immediately thought of Jack & Nina. It tells their story perfectly!

 Hopefully, I'll have time to edit more often and other fandoms :) 

 Thank you all for sticking with me. It means a lot! :)

 I hope you all enjoy! :)

2, 8, 10, 15 - for the writer asks! XD

2. How many fics did you work on this year? (They don’t have to be finished or published!) Oh man...I have notes and little bits of two paragraphs here, a page or five there, but most of those will never go anywhere and I'm sure I've forgotten most of those ideas already but for knowing that they're in the depths of my Google Drive.

I published 10 (which is way more than usual for me!) and I've worked on/started four that I feel committed to finishing and posting eventually, as well as one more that I'll either write in the next week or watch it disappear into the ether (pretty sure there's not gonna be an in-between option for this one). This has been a year of hyperfixation whiplash, which, combined with ADHD, has had me spiraling all over the place with ideas and then promptly getting distracted and losing the momentum.

8. Did you write for a new fandom or ship this year? You know, I didn't—this was actually the year of me returning to some very, very old roots! I've written and posted my first 24 fic since, Christ, idk...2006? And then my first BSG fic since 2011, my first Doctor Who fic since 2012, and my first Star Trek fic since 2013. I wasn't expecting this but it's been pretty wild and fun! The TNG cast reuniting on Picard and then having David and Catherine back as the Doctor and Donna on Doctor Who were extremely inspiring external factors, but BSG and 24 were basically whims. I signed up for a BSG exchange in honor of the 20 year anniversary because I thought it would be fun to dip my toes back in that pond and then absolutely panicked when I realized I had to actually write BSG fic in the year of 2023, and then I started the 24 fic during a rewatch awhile back and @starg8rocks reminded me of it a few months ago and inspired me to finish it.

So, in short: no new fandoms, but lots of old ones!

10. What fic made you feel the happiest to work on? I mean, the blood sacrifice (aka the Succession yacht vs. orca crack fic) was pretty entertaining to me personally. I'm also just having so many feelings about Doctor Who deciding that the 2023 message is "rest, recover, and reconnect with all of your friends". So, while it was quite bittersweet and partly the result of me actively rejecting the premise that Sarah Jane Smith is dead in-universe, it was mostly just lovely and cathartic to write what falls away is always and offer two characters I adore a soft, quiet moment of care and connection.

15. Rec a fic you wrote or posted in 2023. The two fics that I agonized over most this year were let your faith die, bring your wonder (BSG, Laura Roslin gen) and we even flew a little (Succession, post-s3 but pre-s4 Roman/Gerri). Between one being in an older fandom and being gen vs. shippy and the other being posted just before season four of Succession started and catapulted the entire fandom, me included, into a new era of fic, I'm not shocked that neither of them got as much love (comparatively) to others I posted this year, but I like them. They're both fics I'm a bit self-conscious about and felt unhappy with when I posted with but I think that's largely because they took so long and stressed me out more than anything else I wrote this year—I liked them more upon revisiting.

my fic from this year send me 2023 fic questions!

Thank you @jellybeansarecool !!

I always love these 😄

Last song: I turned on a random smooth jazz playlist this morning, not sure if I could actually name anything from it. Last song I could name was Reykjavik Connection by Parsonfield. I heard it while boarding an airplane a few weeks ago and have become oddly obsessed with it.

Favorite color: Always purple, but I’m reminded of how much I love reds and burgundies this time of year!

Last movie/tv show: I rewatched The Sound of Music last night-comfort movie of all time ❤️ Also have been rewatching Chuck for like the… 7th time maybe?? Love my idiot spy blorbos.

Sweet/Spicy/Savory: Also depends, but with all the Christmas goodies in stores I’m really feeling sweet.

Relationship status: Single… again 🥲

Last thing I googled: ‘does a furnace not work if you turn it up too fast’ (I have an old one lol)

Latest obsession: Probably Taylor Swift/Travis Kelce lol. I don’t CARE if it makes me a basic white girl they are ADORABLE and you just know they are going to have the cutest Hallmark red flannel baking cookies Christmas ever.

Can you hear me? Even though you’re far away? There are so many words, I just want to say. You have always been there, As the voice to call me home. But now that you’re gone I’m left to fight on my own. Can you hear me, Scream out your name? Because when you left, It hasn’t been the same. I know you hear me Just say something back. Can you hear me? Crying out for you? The air is leaving my lungs, Oh I don’t know what to do. The world has been dark, Since you left us all. For you aren’t there to catch us. When we stumble and fall. Can you hear me? Scream loudly into the night. Because you left us, As you faded into the dying light. I know you hear me Just say something back. But then I look up to the stars And I know you’re never very far. I know you’ll always hear me Even if you can’t say something back.

can you hear me (a song for Carrie Fisher)  // n.r.a
