The Stationery Hub. A story about paper clips.

[woolly_socks]

Because morebliss is a fannish goddess that I am now lucky enough to know IRL, she made me a present. A beautiful, special present. It's a story about Ianto the paper clip, and the rest of the paper clip Torchwood team. Warning for a small amount of paper clip porn.

D'oh! I see a spelling mistake!

Is it okay if I post the pics and link it on a torchwood comm?

[woolly-socks.livejournal.com]

Absolutely! I was thinking about posting to trchwd_crkd_up actually, but if you want to instead that's just fine and dandy.

Spelling mistakes oh noes! Stationery has an e in it, does that make it two? I can Photoshop them right if it really bothers you.

[morebliss.livejournal.com]

Sweet, I didn't even know about that community! Will do. Hopefully tonight.

Damn! That is two! Um, I meant stationary as in they're paper clips, so um, can't move? No, I spelt stretched without a second 't' at one stage. Let's just leave it. Why can't RL have an F7?

[woolly-socks.livejournal.com]

What does F7 do?

[woolly-socks.livejournal.com]

Um. That was really hot.

[morebliss.livejournal.com]

Sorry, being all PC! It's a shortcut key for spell check.

[woolly-socks.livejournal.com]

Ah. I'm on vaude's PC so I checked, and her F7 does some freaky shit that is not spellcheck. Caret browsing?

he didn't look right.
like somebody smashed in his face or something.
it was entirely too disconcerting.

*giggles*

You are both adorable!

that is actually really good paper clip porn. i mean, i can totally tell that those paper clips are getting it ON.

[woolly-socks.livejournal.com]

He always looks like that when he's not being Spike, for some reason. It's weird. It's like it's the character that makes him pretty, not himself at all.

OMG OMG OMG I GOT YOUR PACKAGE I LOVE THEM SQUEEEEE!!! I put them on and wore them straightaway. They're not warm enough for proper Wellington southerly days, but perfect for in between days. Thank you so much! I love that you made them yourself, that's so freaking cool.

[woolly-socks.livejournal.com]

Totally! There's penetration!

[morebliss.livejournal.com]

\o/ They’re not a patch on Llamas and toasters though. Oooooh, I'm sensing crossover! ;)

Just joking! Kinda. The metal would get electrocuted by the toaster and the Llama would choke on a paperclip!

[morebliss.livejournal.com]

I iz a genius! Thank you!

Dude, seriously, in the first draft, I had the red swingline stapler god 'fix' Jack. But it was just a lot of words on the page and a few 'artful' staples (with the words ka-chung ka-chung as the sound of the stapler arriving) - then I realised Jack didn't need outside help. There's a little cut-scene for you!

Vaude must have a mutant compuper set up for her own preferences. Weirdo. ;)

It's okay that I spelt stationary/stationery wrong, right? I'll just put that crap explanation of mine in 'Author notes'. I mean, it's paperclip fic, I shouldn't be exactly worried about it.

*worries*

[morebliss.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[morebliss.livejournal.com]

I will tell you that there were quite a few 'positions' tried before I got it right. I just love that Woolly was all (after she stopped squeeing), "But, Ianto's on top?" I totally made sure that he was and I was so happy that she got that.

[woolly-socks.livejournal.com]

Don't worry about it! Pretty much everyone makes that mistake.

I'm happy to Photoshop it tomorrow though, if you're still bothered by it.

[morebliss.livejournal.com]

No, I think I'll "own" it. ;)

I'm uploading/dowloading pics now and working on wording for the post. Thank you so much for letting me share my gift to you with the crazy Torchwood fans. And for creating the pics!

Hope you're feeling better?

the bisexual staplers, they're EVERYWHERE.
it's like a covert invasion.
THEY SWING BOTH WAYS!

[woolly-socks.livejournal.com]

No. Migraine. Cranky. Life sucks. *pout*
