Did this in October, but I added a bunch

Make a list of all the characters in your icons. (Although you may have more than one icon of a single character, they only go on the list once.) Alphabetize it. Take the first two people on the list; that's your first pairing. Second two people; second pairing. Etc. Then write your reaction to each pairing (or a snippet of a hypothetical fic featuring each pairing).

Decided to go with snippets this time. And I didn't include real people in this list. Just the people I use in RP as the charcter I use them for.

( micro-ficlets behind the cut, with lots of HP, a bit of QAF, Firefly, Stargate, Beatles, and many others included, some mention of character death )

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:

• Snape
• Lupin
• Draco
• Blaise

Fruits Basket

• Yuki
• Ayami
• Kureno

Star Trek

• Captain Janeway
• Chakotay
• B'Elanna
• Jadzia Dax

Elfquest

• Skywise
• Nightfall
• Teir
  

Others

• Susan Ivanova (B5)
• Teal'c (SG1)
  
• Inara (Firefly)
• Willow (BTVS)
  

Um, that's all I can think of at the moment...

So, chatting with Foodie on IM, and she was saying this quote from the Firefly episode Heart of Gold reminded her of Sirius:

Jayne: Man, my John Thomas is gonna pop off and fly around the room, there's so much tasty here.
Wash: Would be you get your most poetical about your pecker.

I have to agree.  It's a very Sirius thing, really.  Maybe not quite his wording, but definately true of him, too.  With Remus or possibly James as the one chiding him for it.  What does everyone else think?

Foodie, my co-author and main beta, got a bunch right, but I'm keeping the ones she guessed to myself, since she didn't post, so they're still up for grabs...
She requested six drabbles:

The OTP meme.

I list my fandoms, and you guess what my OTPs are in them.  In some cases, I do have more than one, but I will indicate.  And--for added incentive, I will write drabbles for those who guess one right.

I know love-ins aren't as much fun as hatefests, but i thought we'd give it a try this week, okay? immediately contrary to last week's top five of hate and rage, this week's is top five fictional characters you love without bounds. not, of course, necessarily romantic-type love; just the fictional characters, movies or tv or books or whatever, who're your favorites. the ones you'll jump to protect or defend if somebody slags them off. you know.

1. Draco
2. Snape
3. Neville
4. Inara
5. Deanna Troi

I'll defend if I must, but there's my list...

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...

1. Jadzia Dax (DS9) - Strong, confident, intelligent...  I would give anything to have the amount of confidence she had in her pinky finger.
2. Zoe Warren (Firefly) - Again, strong and confident, and never without a smile.
3. B'Elanna Torres (Voyager) - The attitude, the intelligence.  I loved her from the first episode.
4. 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.
5. 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...

You're a LiveJournal Junkie!

Well, maybe you don't live or die for LiveJournal, but it's what gets you up in the morning. Guilty of reloading your friends page over and over throughout the day? Thought so. Quick, get some fresh air - before you become a full fledged addict!

Heh. Too true...

And that Firefly meme everyone's been asking about... ;)

Harrow: "You have to finish it, lad. You have to finish it. For a man to lay beaten... and yet breathing? It makes him a coward."

Inara: "It's humiliation."

Mal: "Sure. It would be humiliating. Having to lie there while the better man refuses to spill your blood. Mercy is the mark of a great man. (lightly stabs Atherton with the sword) Guess I'm just a good man. (stabs him again) Well, I'm all right."

Date: 2005-07-01 16:00 Subject: <lj comm Security: Public Tags: fandom: firefly, fandom: hp: movies, fandom: potc, fandom: stargate, fandom: sw, fannish 5, movie

1. What movies are you fannish about?
Too many to count, but I'll list a bunch anyway.

• Star Wars saga (mostly the original trilogy)
  
• Indiana Jones series
• Terminator
• Pirates of the Caribbean
• Moulin Rouge
• Matrix (the first more than the later two
• Stargate

I think you get the idea... ;)

2. What upcoming movies do you expect to be fannish about?

• Serenity
• Corpse Bride
• Goblet of Fire
• King Kong

I'll be seeing others, but those are the ones I'm most excited about.

3. Movie adaptations of your fannish tv shows: good idea or bad idea?
Depends on who's doing the adaptation.  If it's the originals, or those who care deeply for the original, good, if it's studio-run, bad.

4. If they have to make a movie of a fannish tv show, do you want the original actors and premise, or is an updated premise acceptable?
Depends on the show.  Older shows should be an updated premise in general, with cameos of originals if possible.  New shows should have some or all of the original cast members, because if they don't want to do it, that's nto a good sign.

5. Would you rather have a made for tv fannish movie or do you want the big screen?
Depends on the source material.  And who's making it. And the budget.
