Random stuff
Feb. 29th, 2012 10:06 am→ I keep forgetting to mention this but, for those of you who prefer Dreamwidth, there's a mirror of my fic journal over there.
→ I am loving the new Transformers: Prime episodes, but I want to wait until the whole season premiere airs before I make a proper post about it. =D
→ I'm slowly catching up with Generator Rex! I'm up to episode 2x08 now and, oh, do I love that show. ♥ I'll probably make a long post at the end of the season like I did with the first one, unless there is something that I absolutely need to ramble about.
→ I finally gave up and made an account on Ravelry. (Well, technically I remembered I've had a never-used account since about a year ago.) ... I am never getting my life back, right.

Fandom meme
Feb. 18th, 2012 12:04 pmBecause it's been a while:
Name a fandom you know I know and I'll tell you
1. The first character I first fell in love with
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
3. The character everyone else loves that I don’t
4. The character I love that everyone else hates
5. The character I used to love but don’t any longer
6. The character I would totally smooch
7. The character I’d want to be like
8. The character I’d slap
9. A pairing that I love
10. A pairing that I despise
ETA: ... for some reason it's not importing LJ comments correctly. o.O

A variation on the "first lines" meme
Jan. 16th, 2012 12:41 pmBecause I don't really have any works in progress right now, but I do have a pretty long list of plot bunnies. So, here are the ones with the best chances of getting written (in English) sometime soon-ish:
( look ma, no crossovers )
... now if I would only sit down and, you know, write them. >.>
( look ma, no crossovers )
... now if I would only sit down and, you know, write them. >.>
Leave a ship in a comment and I will tell you...
who is the big spoon/little spoon
what is their favorite non-sexual activity
who uses all the hot water in the morning
what they order from take out
what is the most trivial thing they fight over
who does most of the cleaning
who steals the blankets
who leaves their stuff around
who remembers to buy the milk
who remembers anniversaries

Commentary meme
Oct. 21st, 2011 10:36 amTaken from several people:
First ten comments, one per person: Name one of my fics and I will do a commentary on it, "DVD" style, or a "meta" on that fic if doing it DVD style is too cumbersome. If you post this to your journal, revise as you wish (number of comments, style of commentary, etc.).

Hey, TF and/or MLP folks!
Sep. 22nd, 2011 10:08 pmI've started watching the new My Little Pony cartoon a few weeks ago and, while I find it fun and very very cute (and full of positive and varied female role models!), I didn't really have anything to say about it here on LJ.
But today I saw the episode with that Sonic Rainboom thing and... well. I just have to ask.
Please tell me there's fanart of rainbow-making Thundercracker out there. Please.
DON'T LET ME DOWN, INTERNET.

Hey, G1 fandom!
Jun. 11th, 2011 10:57 amI was waiting for this comic to end before I recced it, and then I... got distracted. But here goes:
A Very Decepticon Christmas
GO READ IT. All of EnvySkort's comics are hilarious, but this one is my favourite so far. It's like watching an episode of the show! Except it makes more sense! =D And there are tons of characters apart from the usual popular ones. Tracks! Cosmos! Oh, my heart ♥
Also, her Megatron has the best expressions ever.

May. 25th, 2011 01:07 pmComment with any ship (romantic or platonic or maybe even non-existent!) from a fandom that you know I have some knowledge about, and I will rant about aforementioned ship. This may be incoherent gushing or exclamations of disgust, depending on your ship of choice.

fannish5: Name the five best uses of Shakespeare’s work (faithful adaptations, plots inspired by his work, references to one of his plays/sonnets).
I don't know if they're THE BEST, but they're my favourite:
1. The 2004 adaptation of The Merchant of Venice. You know, the one with Al Pacino and Jeremy Irons (♥) and stuff.
2. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead. So awesome *____*
3. Terry Pratchett's Wyrd Sisters, which is kinda sorta loosely based on Macbeth.
4. The Lion King. I was too young when I first saw it to realize that it was Hamlet with lions, though. :P
5. DINOBOT. Just... Dinobot.
Bonus: Tolkien said he wrote the March of the Ents because he was disappointed with Macbeth's explanation for the "woods going to the castle" thing, so I say IT TOTALLY COUNTS.
(So many other shiny things to pick from, though! I really wanted to include The Shakespeare Code, because it's one of favourite Martha episodes, but... Dinobot won. :P)
