Need to do this again. New journal, things have shifted a bit, so time to re-list my fandoms:
( Fandom rambling behind the cut because Elf doesn't know when to shut up )
Have I gone on long enough? :P

I haven't been interested in these in ages, but I quite like this one:
What are your five favorite canonical friendships?
Harry Potter
- Sirius, Remus and James. I'd add Peter, but JK totally screwed him over to make sure that no one would ever like him.
- Severus and Lily. Aaaaaw... :D
- Harry and Neville, though more movie-canon than book-canon. I love that Neville actually gets to help him and talk to him in the movies.
- Severus and Lucius, even though it's never explicitly stated.
- Albus and Gellert. A fascinating idea. I can't wait to see what the fans do with it. :D
Star Trek - Geordi and Data. Not just symbiotic because Geordi was an engineer, but also honestly good friends. I always loved their jaunts on the holodeck.
- Ben and Dax. I have a huge soft spot for Dax, and I always loved this. How it grew from a male/male friendship to a male/female friendship with only one hint of romance the entire time Jadzia was host.
- Tom and Harry. These two were so fun together... Little kids on a big ship. :D
- Kathryn and Tuvok. Everyone needs a Vulcan friend. To tell them when they're being an idiot
- Kirk and Spock. Oh, all right, yes. It's one of the things I hope this new version gets right. They were each others' support, and I want them to show it, damn it!
Others - Sam and Al, Quantum Leap. They were really so great together...
- Knight and Schanke, Forever Knight. Ditto. I can't express the number of times Schanke's stupid antics and Nick's reaction made me grin. And yet, they were still always there for each other.
- Buffy and Willow, Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Only the best of friends can get away with calling each other such horrid things and smile about it while they're doing it. "Quitter." "Whiner." "Bailer." "Harpy." "Witch." "Bad seed..."
- Cutter and Skywise, Elfquest. God, I can't believe this wasn't at the top of my list. These two are so perfect together. Cutter the brawn and Skywise the brain. They compliment each other so well...
- Brian and Michael, Queer as Folk. I know some prefer the romance between them, but if it had ever happened? It would have destroyed everything between them. They were never meant to be anything more than friends. Though they were excellent at that. They understood each other almost better than anyone else. And put up with each other more than most of the others in their lives did.

Gacked from bookshop
Leave a list of fictional characters in your journal that you would love to get a message from. It is your friend-list's mission, should they choose to accept it, to write you an in-character "letter" from a character on that list. Then they post their own list in their journal and the process continues!
Harry Potter:
Fruits Basket Star Trek - Captain Janeway
- Chakotay
- B'Elanna
- Jadzia Dax
Elfquest Others - Susan Ivanova (B5)
- Teal'c (SG1)
- Inara (Firefly)
- Willow (BTVS)
Um, that's all I can think of at the moment...

Name five fannish characters you would trade lives with.
In thinking of who I would list, I come up with two thoughts. One is that this can't be a favorite character thing necessarily, because most if not all of my favorite characters are heavily angsty. Draco will have a bad end; ditto Severus, plus his unhappy life; and look at Remus, Willow and Jadzia... I'm just drawn to angst. The other is that when I do narrow it down, they all seem to generally end up being the same character type: a strong, confident woman. Jadzia, B'Elanna, Janeway, Zoe... All generally the same character. So, those two codacils in mind, here goes nothing...
- Jadzia Dax (DS9) - Strong, confident, intelligent... I would give anything to have the amount of confidence she had in her pinky finger.
- Zoe Warren (Firefly) - Again, strong and confident, and never without a smile.
- B'Elanna Torres (Voyager) - The attitude, the intelligence. I loved her from the first episode.
- Nightfall (Elfquest) - Here's one of the few who actually gets to live the happily-ever-after most heroes don't. And boy does she deserve it.
- Leia Organa (Star Wars) - Got everything her mother didn't. Maybe Bail made the difference?
Some Not-quites - Willow Rosenberg (BTVS) - Adored her greatly, but her breakdown in season six was just too much to handle. And Tara's death... Draco Malfoy (HP) - Could have everything in the palm of his hand, but didn't realize what he'd need to do to get it all, so now he may end up being a casualty of the war his father has helped create. Remus Lupin (HP) - We all know that Remus will never have a happy life, unless JK decides to do the "killing the werewolf who made him breaks the curse" rule... Padme Amidala (Star Wars) - I loved her in the first movie, was rather dissapointed with her in the second, and was thouroughly disgusted in the third. She had so much potential. But apparently being a leader that young means that you don't have to worry about thinking after you step down...

Title:Thoughts on the Lost
Rating: PG for implied character death
Pairing: Skywise/Fox Fur
Word Count: 252
Disclaimer: Skywise and Fox Fur do not belong to me, but to a lovely couple named Pini. No infringement intended
Summary: Skywise thinks about his lost lovemate.
A/N: So, fluffyllama started a new archive, and I have joined, and since I suggested Elfquest (which I haven't written in more years than I can remember), I decided to write a drabble today. All of the Elfquest stuff I wrote before was very MS-heavy, so I definately wanted to start from scratch. But I've always been fond of the Skywise/Fox Fur ship, so I always hated the idea that she was dead. So I wrote a little piece. I hope people will give it a glance...

What 5 media (books/movies/tv show) universes would you want to visit if they were, you know, real?
1> Harry Potter. No surprise. I love magic.
2> Star Trek. I wanna see the Enterprise. Either Kirk's, or the Enterprise D. Cause it's sooo cool! :D
3> Elfquest. Such a beautiful, unspoiled world. Pre-KOTBW, though.
4>The Marvel Universe. Cause I wanna go to Xavier's! :D
5> Well, after scouring my brain, I can't come up with a fifth that I HAVE to see, so I guess I'll go for Labyrinth. Cause at least then I could drool over tight-pants David Bowie, right? ;)

Anyone out there any good at making icons who would be interested in making me a few? I have some ideas, but not the time or software to make them myself.
The first is an Elfquest icon somehow using this picture, and the quote "Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to decieve." Specifically I'd like the icon focused on her and the hair, if at all possible.
The second is a Dragon-Prince icon using this picture, with the words "My fandom plays with fire"
and the last is an image of Jack Sparrow, with the quote from the movie, "But why is the rum gone?"
I'd give credit and everything. I might even be willing to try ficlets, if people wanted as rewards...

List five fictional people -- from television, movies, books, whatever -- that you had a crush on as a child (or early teens). Then post this on your LiveJournal so other people can know what a dork you've always been.
Han Solo, Star Wars. But not until after I'd seen both Empire and Raiders of the Lost Ark. Yes, it took me that long.
Indiana Jones. Who doesn't want a handsome, intelligent archeologist to sweep them off their feet?
Derek Wildstar, Star Blazers (Space Battleship Yamato). Don't ask, I have no idea why.
Cutter, Elfquest. Yes, a comic book character, okay?
Skywise, Elfquest. Ditto.
No excuses. I just dug em. :D

So, Hubby says I can get a paid account... Mostly because he doesn't want me to set up GJ account. So I will be looking for new LJ Icons. Anyone who wants to treat me, I would love ship Icons specifically:
HP/DM, SS/SB, SS/RL, George/Harry, LM/RL
Also anything good for Draco, Snape, or Remus.
Other stuff:
Star Trek, particularly Voyager
Star Wars, specifically Han/Liea
Dragon Prince series, particularly Sioned & Rohan (or a picture of Miranda Otto as Sioned)
Buffy/Angel, Willow, Vamp Willow, Angel/Buffy, Oz/Willow, Willow/Tara
Babylon 5 - Susan Ivanova, Delenn, Lenir, Susan/Talia, Susan/Marcus
Jay Davidson in his Ra garb... :D Or somehow as Blaise.
Elfquest: Winnowill, Rayek, Tier, Cutter, Skywise, or Winnowill/Rayek, Ember/Tier
Moulin Rouge - Christian/Satine
Cate as Galadriel
Jean Grey
I'm sure there's more, but it's not going to come to me as it's so late. But any places to find icons would be appreciated and adored. :D

Name the five scenes that make you melt in True Fannish Love. Every. Single. Time. You know the scenes, the ones that either pimped you in, or proved to you that you had well and truly fallen.

So, I don't think I ever really did this, and seeing as how I just put my name into the Fandom Friending Frenzy over at mctabby's lj, I thought I should post this somewhere people can actually see it..
My biggest current fandom is Harry Potter. It is probably the most involved I have ever been in a fandom before. I read & rec, and I write Fan Fic like mad. But I love it. I honestly have trouble remembering life before HP.
Beyond HP there is LOTR. This has always been a background note in my life, even though I only just managed to finish the series. I tried to write a Frodo-fic once, but I never finished it. I think that was pretty much the extent of my time in the fandom, though I do read the occasional fic.
Elfquest is probably the last fandom I went as nuts over as HP. I went through a period where all I did was create characters, make lists, and draw elves. (my only fan-art ever, I think.) If you like LOTR, and elves, I highly recommend it if you've never checked it out. This was the very first fandom I ever wrote fan fic for, though I had no idea that that was what it was called, and every story had at least one Mary-Sue in it, so none of it was worth publishing online.
Star Trek is the only other Fandom I actually still claim (even though I no longer watch...) that I have written finished fan fic for. My co-author and I wrote a two-part Janeway/Chakotay romance fic, the first part was called Captainella, and the second was Neelix in Boots. It was lots of fun, but I look at it now and just see how flawed it was.
Beyond that, I read the occasional Buffy or Forever Knight fic, and I also consider myself a fan of Star Wars (the first three films only, really), and V, the original 80's mini-series, though I hear that they're working on a remake. I also currently watch Lost, and consider myself a fan. But that's so new, and I'm not sure how deep I'll get into it.
To everyone here from mctabby, hello!
