What's New: Less Ancient News

To address the issue of when. The answer you all wish: today. The true answer: never. Okay, so maybe not never. But it's looking more and more likely. But I have reasons. (Other than the main one that I hate this fic.) Really, I have excuses. As some of you know, and others who couldn't care less but are still reading at this point, I started school about seven weeks ago. And I'm not talking high school, or even undergrad. I'm talking the type of school where I get up at 5 a.m. daily and I study or am in class until about 9 p.m. (Speaking of which, I should probably be in bed right now. Oh the horrors.) I've curtailed TV watching down to 3 hours a week, and that doesn't include any leeway for GG. So instead, I sit with my head in a book, griping to Pooh about things I don't understand and having her fake some interest while rolling her eyes behind the privacy of an instant message. It's a vicious cycle I tell you.

Anyway, to make a long explanation longer, I have no time. I shouldn't even be up typing this update right now. But life will go on. We don't have any tests or grades taken until the end of the semester, so I never get a break. And Lord help us all when December hits and I'm trying to remember all the statutes and codes because 100% of my grade is based on one 3 hour exam. There may be some heads rolling at that point. But we'll all live. And if I find a breathing moment or two over winter break, I may even pull it out and have a look. But I can pretty much guarantee no action until Dec 26th, at the earliest. And I'm not even saying that's a given. So everyone take a breath, read a [b]Poohfic[/b], and suck it up. You'll all be better people for it.

And that's the end of my disclaimer for now. Be sure to read the update from yesterday since this isn't meant to distract you from that.


October 8, 2002

There's nothing like pimping out a whole bunch of new sites. Well... okay... just one... and not really a "site," per se. FectaFriend Kali and the Fectas have been playing around with a message board that's a bit more interactive than our own FectaForum. Anyway... you guys can still leave us messages on our Forum (not that many of you do... it's a sad, sad, lonely place over there...) and you can visit The HA Hideaway and help support this new endeavor. *g* Yes... it's a bit of a challenge at first to get into the logistics of the place, but it's there for you to play with, if you'd like (Kali and Pooh have been acting pretty stupid crazy over there all by themselves. LOL. So join us, if you want.)

Thought to ponder for the day: You KNOW you've been spending WAY TOO much time on message boards when you start updating the site with messageboard codes and instead of HTML. Big der.


Still playing with new site layout and some other fun stuff. Check back soon!


October 7, 2002

SHEESH!!! Stop coming here already. Grrr. We keep exceeding our data transfer. Sigh. Pooh here, working on a new layout for the site, which (hopefully) might help with that. But did you know that there's like a *billion* fic pages to transfer over??? EEK. Another good reason to stop. :P Nya nya!

PS. Lucky b-tards. *rolleyes* Was hoping to get more of... um... something... written before I finished posting [i]SI[/i], but seeing how this coming Sunday is time for celebration (mmmm Sark... hehe), Pooh will attempt to hurry up and edit it for then. Blah. Undeserving ingrates. :P


October 3, 2002

Well, this is a not-an-update. Awww. Yeah, whatever. ::tongue::
A few words, if we may: (and of course we may, because this is our site, der)
Ew. Ew. Ew. Ew. EEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.

HA, what have you done to yourself? Tsk tsk. The HAIR must GO. Out damn spot, out! Grrr. Thank god for nekkidness. (Pssssst, Chad. Um... here's two choices for you: 1) Go crawling back to GG, or 2) Skip to the porn.) Yeah, baby. Bow chica bow wow, bow chica bow wow. *g*
Sigh. Hate it when hotties don't listen. Grrr. Hate when they get a mind of their own. They should know better.
Heeeee!!! The graphic they use on the "news" segments on the CSI ep? Totally our Intro Pic. Mmmm, hotass!! And two big fat freaking shout-outs!!! First, The HA "wanted Chinese." *wink* Oh yeah. Shout out to Pooh. That's right. Haha to everyone out there. Blah. And second, when Grissom wanted a full body shot of The (Skanky) HA, and he mentioned scouring websites, etc? Oh, totally a shout out to the TrifectaLy. Yeah, don't even deny it. ::tongue:: Hrmph.


September 29, 2002

Here you go. A special present just for you. You should all bow down to Pooh because she worked hard to html this dang undeserving gift, even though her nose is so clogged, her head is all swimmy and dizzy, and she refuses to take meds because the Alias premiere is in two hours and she NEEDS to see it. Bah. Boo to all of you!


September 25, 2002

Well, I give up. No matter how many times we tell you to stop nom'ing us for things, and stop giving us PityAwards... you still do it. What's up with that, ingrates? Don't you respect your elders anymore? ::rolleyes:: Sigh. Everyone needs a spanking. Get in line!!! HA is getting his paddle. *grin*
Ok... I'll stop grumbling. We actually appreciate these awards. No... you misunderstood. THESE awards. Not ALL awards. I mean, how can you hate getting an award that's been custom made for you? Check it out:

We were actually awarded for our GRIPING!! Can you believe it? Damn straight. Now that's what I'm talking about. Love the lovely people at The Gilmore Globes. They can have HA for a few days. *wink* Although... I may have a bone to pick about the actual award. "Best Original Site"????? What?? Is everyone high?? (And Priya, girlfriend, HA lover... We should talk. Don't ever do that to us again! Grrr!) Yeesh. Okay, okay. I said I'd quit grumbling, so here it ends. No big updates right now, although these award things may have spurred us to add a few more terms to the Trifectaly Glossary. Check back soon for those. And for the next installment of SI (because it's almost Sunday, der!!).
Toodles!


September 24, 2002

Update of an update:
Just in case you guys are as bored as we are, Meg and Pooh are hanging out at the TrifectaLy Forum. Yeah. We know you know nothing about that. If that link doesn't work, just go to our Extras. Meg would also like to thank all of you who went to her site and signed her guestbook. ;)

Boredom sucks. Agree? Maybe our free time is better spent in prayer:

Are you there, God? It's the Fectas. Please, oh please, why... in your infinite wisdom, did you let HA leave GG in the first place? Please return him to the wonderful busom that is GG.

Yes. We're - well, I am, at least - cracked. The next part of SI will be up in time for the celebration of the Alias premiere (Why? B/c there's hot guys on that show, too, der. And b/c Pooh says so.) Still trying to work on Hilda for a Favors update, but she's got yucky law papers to write. Boo hoo! And Meg, our new HTML Goddess, has been toying with a possible new site layout. Oh yeah. You know you want it. In the meantime, if you're just as bored as we are (DAMN, FF!! Just when we decide we are not beholden to you, you make us grovel at your stinky feet. You - my deliciously guilty pleasure message board - are the devil. Grrr!) please check out Meg's personal site. Be wow'ed. Be amazed.


September 22, 2002

Call Pooh Chatty Cathy. She just feels like talking for some reason. Nope, there's no update, but you knew that. You just didn't want to believe it. :tongue: Haha. Thanks for those of you who sent feedback. We LOVE you. And, just so it's out there: We're not above bribing for feedback; we may consider sending sneak peeks (of course, nothing of Pooh's... maybe Hilda's, or Meg's or Ly's... um...) in exchange for feedback. Keyword: "MAY" But please feel free to bombard us with email now, anyway. Ta ta!


September 20, 2002

Wow. Seems just like yesterday that we updated... Oh wait. It was. Yay!!
Not so fast, boys and girls and HA (yeah, we know you're probably watching us - how can you not? - we just can't prove it *tongue*). There will be no joy in FectaLand today. This is FectaPooh here, letting you all know that the next update probably won't be for another week or two, unless FectaHilda deems us worthy of a Favors update. *wink* A shout-out goes to all those lovely FectaFans who decided we were special enough to be the object of precious feedback. Now, I beg you turn your attention to composing whiny update pleads to FectaHilda regarding the delectable and much more worthy Favors, or even to FectaMeg and FectaLy about the long-neglected As You Wish. Hey, buck up little campers, it's worth a try!! As for those of you who just take and take and take from us... it's not to late to put thought to email and tell us to "shut up!" LOL
*Pooh's leaving for the weekend now, so Hilda can't hurt her... And yes, Hilda really can hurt Pooh* Heh. Happy Emmys weekend, all!


September 19, 2002

CRAP! It's here.


September 18, 2002

It's coooooooooooommmmmiiiinnng. . .


September 17, 2002

Pooh just glanced at the site numbers for the update page.
Poor, poor, poor, pathetic fools...
BWHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

It's coming. . .


August 17, 2002

Apparently we're nominated in the next round of the Gilmore Globes. I say this because we didn't get an email but I was just at the site and saw us listed. So my powers of deduction lead me to believe that we are in fact nominated. Click the picture below to be taken to the site and see all the nominees.

And also, we won an award at the Just a Girl Awards. However, I have it on good authority that you cannot read. Because I specifically told you Catharsis, and somehow that translated to The Morning After. But maybe I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and think that perhaps the link was messed up and you thought you were casting your vote for Catharsis. Either way, we did win an award. I feel stupid posting this myself, but at least it was TMA and not Favors or 3:47. I may have had to bang my head against the wall had you done something that dumb.

July 27, 2002

Short update today. Be sure to read yesterday's update as it contains good Pooh fic. Wouldn't want you to miss that just so you could read this. We've been nominated in another awards site. I haven't really had time to check to see how this one works. I think we just get nominated and it's out of your hands. But if you want to check out the site below and see the other entries, please do.

And that's all for this fine day. I know, shocking that there's no sarcasm or self-deprication. There'll be time for that later.


July 26, 2002

Oh boy. You guys asked for it. Well, ok, not specifically for this , but close enough. Here's your stinking update. I'd write more, but I want to return to my summer novels. And I'd suggest that you all pick up a nice big book to read. For once, try reading something that's written by someone who can actually write!! Tsk tsk.


July 22, 2002

Oye. 4 more days and I will be unemployed. As thrilling as that sounds, I'm terrified at the same time. This will be the first time since 1997 that I don't have a job of some sort. But we won't go there now.

Fics are coming. I know some of you are beginning to think that we're crying wolf, but I promise, I would never lie. I've seen the proof from Pooh (it's stellar as always), she just needs a swift kick in the (hot)ass to get it finished and up. And believe it or not, I've got the outline for Favors part 8 in my head. Like I said in an earlier update, hopefully with all this time on my hands coming up, I'll be able to sit my arse in front of my IBM and type. Until then, why don't you check out our Hotass Forum and interact with the Fectas and our loyal following. You don't even have to leave your name or email. So post as Tanya even if you're really name is BooBoo. Who's to know? I'll keep my eye out in there and see if we can make this site a bit more interactive again. Ta Ta.


July 15, 2002

I see my threats that the Fectas were going to stop writing has really whipped you into a frenzy. If I had a dime for ever email we got begging us to reconsider and keep writing, well, I'd have no money since we didn't get a single one. Yes, I know, it's difficult to send email when we haven't been providing much. (Though I must say, Pooh put up an entirely readable fic the other day, and no one responded to that). But fear not our fans. As of 2 weeks from now, I (Hilda) will be jobless and taking a break from life. What that means is that I'll have no curfew, and can stay up through the night writing since that seems to be when I do my best work. (Hey, it doesn't take much when you're comparing crap to crap). Anyway, until that time, pick your favorite fic and reread. Then fondle the Hotass and beg the author to bestow another part on us all.) May I suggest anything and everything by Pooh. Or better yet, that fantastic fic that needs an ending, "As You Wish". Perhaps HA not coming back to GG is because the writers are waiting patiently to see how to fit him back on the show. For we all know that that Romeo and Juliet episode was a nice nod to the collective talents of Meg and Ly. So get those fingers typing and let them know we need more.

And on a serious note for once (shocking we know). We do appreciate being nominated in the "Just a Girl" awards. As much as we self-depricate ourselves, we do enjoy positive feedback and nominations as such. The fact that some of you really think we are talented is quite humbling. The voting on those awards is now underway, so if you really think we deserve one, have at it (link is in the update below). May I ever so subtlely suggest that pay attention to the fic category. *cough* Catharsis *cough*.

And now it's time for me to get my butt out of here before Pooh sees that I'm actually encouraging you guys.


July 10, 2002

First, some business matters to take care of. As some of you may remember, we were nominated for awards on 2 different sites a few months ago. I am happy to report, that we did not win any of them. Well, that's not entirely correct. We did get runnerup in 2 categories at the Gilmore Globes. Everyone give a shoutout to Pooh for her fic. If you would like a complete list of winners who (rightfully) kicked our asses, please click one of the pictures below. FYI, these awards were voted on by a panel and not by you devoted fans.

Which brings us to the second site. We were nominated for numerous awards on the website "Just a Girl" awards. These awards were voted on by you the fan. And just as we had hoped, you all pulled through. Not one single award was won. Thank you all for not voting, or if you did vote, voting for someone else. But now, someone has taken it upon themselves to nominate us again in another round of these same awards. (We know who you are and are plotting to take away your special TrifectaLy Fan Club Membership Card. Adoration like this will not be tolerated.) So once again, here's our nomination. It's linked back to the site if you feel the need to vote for someone else to assure that we keep our perfect streak running.

And the second matter, what you really want to know about. Fics. We've talked it over, and decided a way to solve our problems. No more fics. Ever. Toodles.

Ok, ok. Maybe fics sometime. But just not anytime soon. We know you want them. And that truly gives us such a feeling of power. We just have nothing to give you at the moment. The collective Fecta stress level at the moment is off of the charts. And when we're stressed and try to write, it all comes out bitchy. So unless you're prepared for a 'Hotass runs over Rory with a big Mack truck' storyline, be patient. Good things come to those who wait. And wait. And wait.....


July 6, 2002

Happy belated 4th of July!! Woohoo!! Less than 2 weeks until Pooh birthday (*klunk! Pooh fainting after realizing the age thing again*) so prepare appropriate presents. Yay!!
Today's update is brought to you by the letter: C.
This Fecta was about to update and not mention it because she doesn't want to draw attention to it (and because she's mean). But after serious consideration (decided while watching the Iron Chef make sushi tonight), she thought that option might be a bit cruel (ooh, a "C" word!). It's an old fic that she wrote a LONG, LONG time ago in a galaxy far, far away (one where HA is still on GG) from Tristan's POV regarding the events occurring in one of the Season 1 GG eps. It's been posted in it's unedited glory because Pooh really, really, reeeeeaaaaalllly does not like it, and would prefer that it burned, but she likes spreading the misery a bit, so what can you do? DON'T read it!! Yes! A perfect compromise! Sigh. Because it's an "Insights" fic, it must begin with that overused Pooh title letter, "C," as in Commiseration.


June 25, 2002

Nah. Not really an update. Just Pooh messing with you, and doing a little bit of housecleaning. Also, just letting you know that we are still here, and around, and laughing our asses off that you guys are still coming to this site. Don't fret, though. Real updates will be coming. Soon... hopefully. Of course, since none of us have been writing anything lately, we'll all be rusty, and crappy, and then you can take your worshipping elsewhere, where it really belongs. *snicker* Hopefully, we'll get Meg to upload or link some of her REALLY AWESOME fanart to tide you guys over. Seriously, once you see these, you'll be asking "Fic, what?" *smirk* Laters.


May 26, 2002

We're here, we're here. Don't worry, we haven't fallen off the face of the Earth. Things have been incredibly hectic lately. Twin and Ly finishing up school with finals and such, Twin and Megg looking for jobs, (if anyone knows someone hiring in the area of HA stalking, they're more than willing to submit a resume), and me struggling with my school of choice and my job. I know, excuses, excuses. Hey, I rarely even see the gals so you shouldn't be surprised if they've not been around. When I do see them, we occasionally discuss our lack of fics and possible remedies to the situation. So once again, we just need you to hang on. Thanks to those of you still coming around. We appreciate your patronage. Also, I can't believe I'm telling you this, but voting is underway for the sites we were nominated for. So if you feel inclined, rush over there and vote for someone else to beat us. The links are at the bottom of this page and on the intro page. So stay tuned...
P.S. I don't know who's site this is but it gave me the biggest laugh when I stumbled across it. Apparently some people here think we really are that obsessive. (I won't spoil it for you and tell you what we all really do think of CMM now....) But thanks to whoever posted those for giving me the best laugh of the day.


May 4, 2002

Now that we've all digested the wrath of Pooh, (and I suggest you all take her seriously), we have news on a lighter note. Another victim has fallen to the Fecta stalking. Ok, so not quite to the extreme. I actually braved a Star Wars convention and stood in line for 3 hours just to see him. And I wasn't disappointed. But then of all my pictures, only 2 or so are even recognizable. Darn it all. But it is forever engrained in my memory because Hayden Christensen was seen in the flesh by a Fecta. Granted I'm the most recent Hayden loving convert, and Meg and Ly are dying that they couldn't be there.

So just to prove we're getting better at this stalking... here's Hayden.

April 21, 2002

This is not an update.
I repeat: This is NOT an update. And it will also not be "nice" in any way, shape, or form.
It is also NOT a plead for more feedback/email/loving. We already know who's doing most of the loving in this relationship. Nor is this some kind of mindgame where we tease you with things you'll probably never see (just because we're biotches that way). Now... you've been forewarned.
To those of you who are intelligent enough to READ and FOLLOW the DISCLAIMER on our MAIN PAGE: You DO NOT need to be a recipient of the verbal ass-kicking diatribe that will begin within the next few lines. Please avert your eyes, and continue doing all those WONDERFUL things we love about you!! Unless, of course, you'd like to get a kick out of a particularly bitchy mood swing a certain Fecta is experiencing right now...

The following message was brought to you by an irate Fecta who has read enough of her share of crap messages:
For those of you who managed to skip that HUGE note we left you on our main page... this is for all of you who cannot read...

The PURPOSE of this "character fansite" is for us to celebrate our love for The HA. And because we're such generous people, we share our love with you. And we are exactly what we say we are -- a CHARACTER FANsite. We celebrate THE HA, not Chad (although sometimes they go hand in hand, but most of the time NOT because we are still very undecided about "ChiaHead"... I mean... "Charlie"... and it's leaning more towards the "Not So Much" category.) We ARE NOT HA. If we were, do you think we would be referring to ourselves as "HOTASS"? (Ok, actually... I can't really answer that question...) Nor do we know HA. If we did, do you think we'd be wasting our time maintaining this site? Heck no... we'd be out hanging with The HA, instead of sitting here in front of the computer doing this. And now that we've RE-informed you of this mistaken identity issue... PLEASE DO NOT SEND US EMAIL ADDRESSED TO CHAD. We know who you are because 99% of the time, you either have no subject line or have a really lame one. We are not him; we do not know how to contact him; we do not care. And if we did, we sure as hell aren't going to share it with you. Your dumbass emails are taking up our inbox space, so quit it. [On a further note: If you think you're actually emailing Chad (hello!!! why would he have a "trifectaly" email addy?) when you send us mail (and don't get me started on exactly what an idiot you are) you could be a little more creative than having a subject line entitled "very important" or "hey, please read this" or "don't ignore." Der. Like that's SO not going to tip him off that you're a freaking stalker dumbass.] And just to share the IQ level of our "fan" base... we received a nice handful of those excellent emails right after Chad's AOL chat.

"Chad, you're soooooo gorgeous!" "Chad, please write me, I love you." "Chad, I love you so much, you're so gorgeous!" I've got two words and a special finger for you: Dumb. Ass. (I think you've got at least some brain cells to figure out the finger. If you don't, I'd be more than happy to provide visuals.)

The policy about FEEDBACK: Our writings are done for our amusement. We do not need to share them with anyone but ourselves. The fact that we have placed them on our site is not to beg for feedback and for emails telling us how wonderful, perfect, and gorgeous we are (We already know this). Yes, we do gripe over the lack of feedback we get, especially when we receive mail scolding us for not continuing. Hey, if we don't know that you like it, how do we know we should continue? We may be omnipotent, but we're not omniscient. It's discouraging to see all the "great" feedback all the CrapFics out there are getting (hey, we don't claim to be the all-mighty fic writers, but there's crap (ours) and there's Crap). It's not like we're only asking for GOOD feedback; we'd love to hear how we can improve ourselves. Also, remember, since these fics were initially written for our own entertainment, having people yell at us for not finishing them is not only disgusting and immature, but also off-putting. We are not here to service you. We're not that kind of gals. If we were, you'd have to pay us. We're cheap, but not free.

For the love of all things HA, please READ the all-important AUTHOR'S NOTES!!! Yes, we love to screw with you... but we do not jest when it comes to fics. If we say we're not planning on continuing, or that the fic will only be a ficlet, or that it starts and ends in the middle of the "story"... take that as The Written Fecta Law That is Punishable By DP Mauling if Broken. We're adults (hard to believe considering we act like teenyboppers most of the time), and as such, we like to experiment with different genres and writing styles. There is no set format, and get used to the fact that not all fics will spell everything out for you. Good writing is SUPPOSED to jumpstart your imagination (if you have one) to the point that you don't need every single thing to be written out for you in minute detail. If there is no true beginning or ending to the fic, there's a reason why. You're supposed to come up with your own beginnings and conclusions. Make up your own. Use your brain (hard to believe, I know). Hey, this is reality. Nothing comes all set and pat and resolved. So DON'T even bother sending us email asking us to continue a fic that has already "ended," or yell at us because we're mean if we don't "finish" it. We already know we're "mean," and really... we've already come to terms with it.

On the subject of STEALING: The one thing we DO NOT claim to be is "original." What is THAT, anyway? However, it truly disturbs us when we troll other Trory/GG fic sites and encounter incredibly familiar plot lines. Or even unique phrases that we've used, incorporated into other people's fics. I personally don't mind if someone is inspired by one of our overused cliches or phrases, but could you at least write it BETTER than us? Honestly. Is it too much to ask?

About our FIC STYLES (seeing how that's pretty much all we're known for... other than that "bitchy" thing...): NOT all fics will be sappy, Trory-friendly, saccharine, dripping lullabies. As far as we know, Nutrasweet (or any other sugar company, for that matter) does not sponsor us. If they did, I'd write those sappy MushFics till all my teeth fell out. (Hint, hint!) [Or... if someone would like to give me a job... and I'm talking REAL job... I'd be happy to repay with nausea-inducing, sugar-coated fics for the rest of my life... (Double hint!!! I have no qualms about pimping myself out for a job.)] We'd like to have some kind of reputation, and I reiterate -- we are adults; we're female, and occasionally, we do have those bouts of PMS-induced writing spurts. We can't help if we let some of our evilness and dark side come out in the writing. Sure, it was easy to make everything all Trory happy when HA was still on the show. BUT... that gets really boring, really fast. If you can't open your mind to new possibilities in characterization, or ONLY want those sappy Trory fics, go elsewhere. Please. We beg you. We're a Tristan site, and by extension, a Trory site. We are NOT, however, impeded by being labeled as such. Hey, I'll admit... sometimes Rory gets on my last nerve (then again, sometimes Tristan does, too). And for HA's sake, you can quit sending us email accusing us of holding out on you. We're human. We like being remembered. We like getting that first feedback after we've posted a fic update to a fic that we haven't touched in awhile. But seriously, you don't need to remind us of it. Emails that contain things like "You don't know how long i've waited for this" are ridiculous and redundant. We are the writers; we're pretty sure we know just how long it's been since we last updated. And it's not for lack of trying. Some of these fics have lost their hold on us, and we're struggling to juggle work, school, lives (haha), and keep inspired and motivated to continue them. Any feedback that sounds like accusations about our lack of investment in this site and in our fics (I mentioned that we don't serve, right?) not only hurt, but nag. We all have mothers; we don't need another.

Finally (for now... I'm a cynical, bitter person, so rest assured, there will be more to come), not to sound elitist or anything... we are the TrifectaLy. We started a long time ago, and I'm almost positive we have some kind of explanation of our origins somewhere on this site or on the Trory Thread at FanForums. Yes, there's 4 of us (but there's this big name thing that Hilda can get into if you ask nicely), but we started with 3 and added a Ly (who Meg already knew, so it's not like we were adding everyone who asked). Granted, we do have our "invitees," but that was a long time ago, and we haven't done any of that in ages. So before anyone starts sending email to us regarding this (AGAIN)... We are not a club. We are not looking to expand. We have no application form. We are not exclusive, or prissy snots, or anything else. We just are. This site (and consequently, the name) came as a result of hours and hours and hours and hours and hours (and hours and hours...) of chatting on FF and then on AIM and MSN. It's a special bond thing that can't really be recreated (nor do we want to have to go through that again. grrr), almost like sisters, and quite frankly, I don't understand why anyone would want to "join." Half the time, even I don't like us.

The bitter end...
If you've gotten this far, and you're still here, then I applaud you. Hey, I'll admit when I'm impressed. If you're one of the "offenders," and you don't recognize yourself in the above post... well... there will probably be another sleep-deprived rant later. Trust me, there's a whole slew of things I can get into, probably starting with the deterioration of our education system, but right now, that's not quite as important as trying to end this long-ass diatribe.

This is just a reminder that the above opinion (while mostly shared by the other Fectas... especially by Hilda, who got a huge kick out of it while I ranted like a deranged lunatic) can be completely attributed to Pooh. It's her fault, and she takes sole responsibility. If you think I was unduly harsh... suck it up.

BIG FREAKING P.S: If anyone continues to violate any of the above "rules," it will be necessary for us to take action. The next addition to our site will be the "Email of the Week/Day/Month/or However Long It Takes Before Anyone Is Dumb Enough To Try It" Page, where we will post your dumbass email (without your name and addy, of course... hey, even we have limits when it comes to inflicting emotional abuse...) and publicly mock and flog you. I know that I'll be laughing my ass off. Not sure about you. Just a head's up.

Ahem. It has occured to us there must be something wrong with the HA mailbox. Why would we ever think this? Perhaps it is beause there have been 4, yes 4 Fecta fic updates within 2 weeks and we've received a measely 4 emails. And we know that you all have begged and pleaded for updates, and each fic has been viewed at least 150 times. Therefore, the only deduction is that something is wrong with the HA. So I'll make it easy for you. Log into your email account, and put our email address in the "to" line. trifectaly@hotmail.com Even if you absolutely hated each and every update, we want to hear about it. Just let us know that you are breathing. Because for all the fronts we put up, the Fectas still need a little loving. So be a kind Fecta follower and give us your honest opinion. If you can't think of anything to say, just copy and paste one of the following selections. May I suggest 1 for anything by Pooh and 2 for anything by me (Hilda). It can't get much easier than that.

1. This fic was good. Keep writing.

2. This fic sucked. Please stop writing.

3. I didn't read the fic but I felt sorry for you guys because you're always whining, and I thought that maybe if I sent in an email you guys would finally shut up.

4. Make it a Trory. (this one's for all you folks at FanForum)

5. This site's still up? I thought that by now HA would have filed suit to shut you psychos down by now.

And keep your eyes out for more updates in the future. Something has gotten into us and we're trying our best to fill your needs.

I don't know who has taken my body and replaced it with a fic writing fiend. But Favors Part 7 is up and waiting for your read. Please note the disclaimer at the top warning of the cliche ahead. Yes I am aware that it's there. But what can I do?


April 12, 2002

3 fic updates in a week? We must be crazy. Like that's some sort of shocking revelation. I came up with a title I liked and Pooh insisted that I use it in a fic. And then I had to base my content on something that would go with that title. So this work is the exact opposite of how you're supposed to write. It has HA just like the Fectas want him. Ok, maybe not since he's not nekkid. But he's angsty, dark, and brooding. Quite a change from any of the sappy stuff you're used to reading here. But give it a try anyway. And let me know how you feel. Fondling the HA is an experience we all need to partake in from time to time. Superiority Complex

It's Rex Manning Day!
Oops. Wrong update. Oh well.
Sheesh, you guys never had it so good. *rolleyes* Pooh can't update any of her old fics on account of them being really bad and sucky and gross. Besides, she's forgotten where she was going with them, and therefore, needs to reread everything -- something she is SO not looking forward to doing. On the other hand, she did find something special to give to you ingrates. *look, whistle innocently* It's something she wrote awhile ago, and then found tonight, and had to revise because Twin deemed it "creepy." *grin* Cool. Pooh wrote a creepy fic. Bwahaha! *rolleyes* Ok, she doesn't think it is, but to each their own. (What does that mean, anyway?!) The next thing on her list of priorities (well, other than thesis, conference presentation, and graduating *crossing fingers*): writing up the account of the infamous Fecta NYC trip where Adam fell in love with all of us. *tongue* It's such a good semi-autobiographical/work of fiction that it's just screaming to be rehashed. Over. And over. And over. And over. And over...
Haha. Almost closed out this post without giving you your gag gift. And now... without further ado, I present to you... Bedsprings
Please leave your mind in the gutter, or better yet, the gutter in your mind... Although seriously, it really (Pooh stressed really) isn't that kind of fic. She just likes having people be on the same wavelength as she is. Enjoy! *evil grin*

You begged. You pleaded. I think you're all on more drugs than I am. Finally the Fectas have a fic update. But don't get your hopes up. Probably not what you're hoping for, and most of you won't even remember the first part. But I don't feel like writing a whole lot right now. So here it is. The Morning After 2


April 3, 2002

Ahh, the joys of legal narcotics. My ISP is annoying and hasn't let me on lately, and that in combination of my new prescription drug supply has led to some writing. Don't get your hopes up just yet. Needs a bit of tweaking before it's presentable. But it's about 80% there. Though I think I need to be lucid when editing, and since I'm on these meds for another 8 days, that may take some time. Cause I know I can't bribe Pooh into reading it, because I wouldn't put her through the torture. And as promised, a link to our other nomination. Please feel free to visit and nominate someone else deserving of the awards.

Call back the rescue squads, the Fectas are alive and well. Ok, perhaps 'well' is an understatement. I think it's safe to say we've all been under the weather lately. But instead of whining and griping about that, I shall move onto something more productive. Hmm. Not a whole lot to relay except personal info that will bore you to no end. I believe we're still working on overhauling the site, but since we've all been sick since returning from, NYC things haven't progressed very quickly. A little birdy told me Pooh was actually writing something the other day. So maybe we'll all be in for a treat shortly. We just ask you to be patient. Yes we realize we have been asking that for a while now. And since you're all such dedicated fans (don't mind me while I do a bit of eye rolling) we know you deserve more. So sit tight and take up a hobby to keep you busy until we're back in full swing. Actually, from what I hear, fondling the Hotass can be an interesting way of biding your time. Or maybe cross-stitching "I love the TrifectaLy" on your favorite pillow. I'll leave the decision making up to you.

Addendum: And to all of you who can't take a joke and decided we were serious when we griped about not being nominated... The Fectas have a few choice words for you. For some reason, someone thought it necessary to nominate us in the "Just a Girl" Awards. Now if this was a joke, we think it's funny too. But for some reason, we received so many nominations that we comprise half of the nomination list. What were you thinking? From here on out, no nominations. Got it? Anyway, I'll get a link up to that soon since it's required by law or something. (Actually, I'm hiding it because I don't want the rest of you to know where it is in case you get some twisted idea to nominate us again.)

So messing with our website from the hotel internet access wasn't the best idea. I've been sifting through all of this and creating new pages and all that jazz just to get it to work. Yipes. Anyway, because of that, I've only got the last few updates here. If there's some old update that you're just dying to read again, you can see it in the screwed up format here. Maybe someday it will be back to normal. Though probably not on this site since we are revamping. And now for the real update.

For all of you wondering what all of the Adam worshipping and commotion is, here you go.....

That's from when we met him the other night. That's my (Hilda) shoulder on the left. You can't see it but he had his hand on my shoulder. Sigh. We need to go back. I'm sure there will be much more talking and drooling over him. Especially since we still need to tell the story of how he came out especially for us. That's a great one. And Pooh can quote every word he said. But that will be in the days to come.

I'm leaving on a jet plane, don't know when I'll be back again. Ok, so that's not entirely true. I know I'm coming back on Monday. Yes, it's true. In less than 12 hours, the second Fecta trip officially begins. (FYI, the first was when the Twins visited Seattle in October. Der.) This time we're adding Meg to the mix and hitting the big apple. NYC here we come. So I'm just giving you a heads up. Don't expect any updates for at least a week. We'll all be too busy to find a computer. Unless of course Ly crawls out of hiding while we're gone and ventures back to this site :). (I thought we were supposed to be getting an Update to As You Wish at some point. What happened to that?) So it's late and I must get my beauty rest. Keep this update in mind and it will save you a few clicks a day, cause there's not going to be anything here. So Adios. Sianora. Buenos dias. (I'm doing the sign language sign), Bon Voyage. Catch ya on the flip side.

March 12, 2002


Hello everyone! It's Meg here with a small update for you all. Well it's not really an update so much as a thank you and more demands. (Will it ever end you say? Well...not so much. :P ) Anyway we'd like to say thanks to everyone who nominated us over at the Gilmore Globes. And yet another demand to all of you out there who haven't yet voted or didn't know about the voting. VOTE! VOTE! (I tried to be more sarcastic like Eeys but it just wasn't working. Sigh...
