Absolutely UNCANNY resemblance here, guys.

Also, looking up synonyms for "reverie" today I thought this was slightly odd:

An antonym of "reverie" is nightmare, but an antonym of "daydream" is reality? Does that mean that, since the definition of "reverie" is "daydream", its antonyms are both "nightmare" and "reality"?

My tenuous Maxil backstory, since a couple of you asked (Sorry, does not include any Bayban references. That's in his future, duh.):
He was gullible. When he was little, he believed every ghost story and legend that his parents told him. He trusted his parents; his father's strict rules and his mother's disappointment, and the last thing he wanted to do was fail in front of them or any other authority figure.

Early on he figured out that he could bully people into doing what he wanted, and so he did. His mother discouraged it, trying instead to get him to reach out and understand people and their motivations, to use manipulation rather than force, but he found that too hard to do. Someone once convinced him to circumvent the rules, but he got caught and couldn't talk his way out of it. He thought he'd failed, and vowed to never do so again.

He never had a gift for understanding people, and so he abandoned the idea completely. Instead, he decided to follow the rules as closely as he could, otherwise he knew that he'd end up failing. When he began to be promoted, he figured that this was vindication of his method and kept to it. He likes the idea of being in authority, because that means he gets to make the rules. As such, he has an innate hatred for anyone like the Doctor who circumvents the rules and succeeds while doing it.

cosmic_celery (2:00:07 AM): Okay. S'fine with me. But seriously, Fitz and Charley are super adorable. I love it. And look forward to him totally messing things up.
faience(2:01:01 AM): yeah, there's sort of a voice in my head that says i really ought to keep her far, far away from him
faience (2:01:17 AM): but they're far too cute to actually listen to that voice
cosmic_celery(2:01:39 AM): hee XD
faience(2:02:25 AM): i love that he's totally ready to run off for the doctor.
cosmic_celery (2:05:52 AM): He knows the Doctor really well, and definitely knows what gets him distressed. He worries about him. And loves him a bit. But he's not going to run. He'll walk at a brisk pace until he finds him.
faience(2:06:50 AM): *giggle*
faience(2:08:06 AM): well, it might give the wrong impression if he *ran*
cosmic_celery (2:09:34 AM): Yes. He's just looking for his friend. The world's not exploding or anything. This clearly is not a critical issue.
faience(2:10:15 AM): except for the fact that he's leaving a pretty, half-naked girl to go check to make sure his boyfriend is okay, of course.
cosmic_celery (2:11:14 AM): Yes, but she did already agree to go out with him, so he's covered.

I've been getting into Psych, and poking around in the fandom a bit. And I'm totally into a particular ship, so I'd been watching a couple YouTube videos of said ship (Shawn/Lassiter aw yeah) when I find video by a real life friend of mine that I've known for years. Then, In looking at some of the other videos, I saw comments by her, including a link to Shawn/Lassiter fanfic she wrote! I knew she was a fan of the show, but I didn't know she did that sort of stuff, so I thought, AWESOME, I shall tell her I am into the fandom. I'd love to have someone in real life I can share fandomey things with. Then this happened:

Dibmonkey (9:09:07 PM): god help me, I am getting into Psych fandom.
Frank2Did5It (9:09:27 PM): o_o
Frank2Did5It (9:09:29 PM): xD
Frank2Did5It (9:09:37 PM): Welcome to my world.
Dibmonkey (9:09:46 PM): lolz
Dibmonkey (9:11:04 PM): i've been watching episodes online. got through season one and working on two now.
Frank2Did5It (9:11:12 PM): Cool.
Frank2Did5It (9:11:16 PM): Season 3 starts soon.
Dibmonkey (9:13:25 PM): yeah. Was reminded that you were a fan when I saw a comment you made on a YouTube video i was watching.
Frank2Did5It (9:13:33 PM): Lawl, really?
Dibmonkey (9:14:04 PM): yes. twas an odd real life meets internets moment.
Frank2Did5It (9:16:07 PM): Heh, neat.
Dibmonkey (9:19:33 PM): haha, so if I dig around, am I going to find embarassing fic you've written? (eh, not that i'd dig around)
Frank2Did5It (9:19:59 PM): I don't think so.
Frank2Did5It (9:20:14 PM): Mostly because I haven't written any fics for Psych.


But you have! You have written smushy, muture-readers-only Shassie fic!

LIAR. LIAR. Pants on FIRE.
