well, crap
Dec. 15th, 2009 11:09 pmSo, my husband doesn't really know that I read fanfic, but he's always online playing games and stuff so we both chill on our computers and he never snoops or really asks what I'm doing (and if he does i just say i'm reading blogs, which is sometimes true).
Secondly, my brother does a lot of music blogging and writes articles for a bunch of blogs and always sends them to me, so I've always kind of wished I could share some of my (cleaner) writing with him to show off, because I know he'd be impressed, but then I was embarrassed that it was fanfic, so I figured maybe someday I would tell him when I was drunk.
So tonight my brother was over and we were playing Quizzo at the bar downstairs, and when we came back up my husband went to bed and my brother wanted to play some music for me on my computer, but I had like 10 tabs of fic open and I didn't want him to see them (because he totally would try to see what they were). So I basically told him, hold on, let me open a new window, and he was like "what don't you want me to see?" and I was like "stuff" and he was like "is it porn?" and i was like "no" (pardon my valley girl style of dialogue recounting here, but it's the easiest way), and then he said "is it star trek fanfiction" and i was like "yes." and he was like "no it's not" and i was like "yes, actually, it is" and he was like "woohoo, i guessed it!" then he was like "don't worry, my old roommate [a guy] used to read Halo fanfiction". So...I guess I got caught, but my brother is awesome but I'm not sure he really knows what's involved in fanfiction (the kind i read, at least - i mean, i'm sure he would surmise that there is gay sex involved, but the ridiculous amounts of porn, probably not so much). So, yeah. I didn't tell him that I write any, but I guess that door is now open. Guess we'll see how it goes from here, but as I said, my brother rocks and I kinda wanted to tell him anyway, so I guess it's all good.
