Ugh. Icons are hard. And pretty. Pretty hard?

Not just making them, although that isn't always the easiest. But choosing them. I've got the basic LJ or the sponsored...I can't even remember at this point. 

Thing is I've used up all my icon slots and I've gotten into a couple new fandoms in the last year or so and I want new icons but I so don't want to part with my Abby/Ziva icons. Even though I haven't used them in forever. Even though I haven't read fic or even watched NCIS in probably a couple of years now. Sigh. They're so pretty. 

...and apparently, upon looking I have many, many Venice and Otalia icons too. 

( Icons...the last two are NSFW )

And, lo, after all that icon deleting I still only have four icon slots available. I'd say that was long over due. But they're all so pretty!

Scandalous Plot Bunny

Anyone else been watching Scandal? I have.

( Here there be mild spoilers in the form of plot arc construction discussion. )

But I digress. I really posted this because I wante to get out the ludicrous plot bunny that hit me while I was watching tonight so it doesn't keep gnawing at me and I don't have to write it.

Because affairs are just no fun and Melly is willing to work with Olivia and also crazy and sympathetic. What if... Melly had originally know Olivia from way back. What if Melly and Liv'd had a thing and Melly was the one to nudge Cyrus into bringing Olivia into the campaign? How awesome would it be if Olivia then fell for the president? Sure having a woman in love with a married man is fun Story but why not have a woman torn between loving two different people? ...who just happen to be married to each other. It's the ultimate triangle and there's nothing soaps love more. ;)
