Even though it was Saturday, Penelope checked in with her writing comm on Livejournal (Friday was check-in day) and said hi to her friends, read the snippets they posted, left some feedback. Then, because the deadline for the first draft of her SPN Big Bang was looming, she wrote. Cranked out about five thousand words before her hands hurt from too much typing and her muse needed a coffee break. So Penelope fixed herself a mug of coffee and curled up on the couch and hit up AO3. She'd bookmarked the latest Romancing McShep entries, because after an awful week of looking at autopsy photos of babies she needed some fluff, and she had to know if John and Rodney were finally going to get together after John had been angsting through their six weeks on Earth during this latest episode tag to The Return. When her coffee was finished, she refilled her mug and checked out the BBC Merlin Big Bang for its latest entries, so she bookmarked that. There was a promising story that looked like the Merlin version of SPN's The French Mistake. She moseyed over to the comment fic meme to see if anyone had filled her Ruby/Meg prompt, and no one had, but someone had posted an intriguing Black Widow + Sam Carter post-apocalyptic road trip fill, so she bookmarked that. And then, because she knew she was procrastinating, she pulled up her list of WIPs and wondered what else she should take a shot at. Hmm. The Internet could always use a little more Emma Swan + Regina Mills buddy cop fic. Penelope stretched her wrists, cracked her knuckles, and set to writing once more. This weekend was hers. Maybe she'd take another stab at that Uhura + Leia crossover after lunch. If Spencer still thought she didn't know he was her eager beta for that, she'd let him keep his illusions. They both needed something to get them through the week.
