Aug. 8th, 2011 03:57 pmIs it me or are things kind of quiet around here in LJ land?
.... just a little?
- I think everyone's heard of the Quick Summary tumblr. I thought I'd share the Pretty Little Liars one:
A group of teenage girls is grief-stricken when one of their friends dies. But then the friend texts them post-mortem threatening to share all their dirty secrets like how one of them is a lesbian. The girls must find out who killed their friend and quick before everyone finds out how lesbian they are.
So, basically, truer words have never been written in the world of ever. Although, as far as Alison actually being A is up for discussion...
- Emily Carroll's short webcomic, the story of how the goddess Anu-Anulan falls in love with Yir's daughter, Yorenn, can be read here. Gorgeous drawings!
- Link: 60 Awesome Portraits of 60 Gay Couples Just Married in New York State
- Link: Also, *this*: Olly Moss' paper cuts. These are brilliant!
- So, I just found the most awesome piece of Fringe fanart in the world! Don't believe me?
( See for yourself! )
- Meme time:
The Hypothetical AU Meme: Take any one of the fandoms you know I write/rec/read AND give me a type of AU (space opera AU, pirate AU, superhero AU, etc) or another time period (Ancient Rome, Regency England, etc). I will then explain the gist of the story I would write for that AU.

Jul. 28th, 2011 12:32 amWhat the *hell* is LJ playing at? D: Kind of incredibly annoying, if I may say so myself!
Anyways, I'm back! Hope everyone is fine and well. :)
Let's keep it short and sweet, shall we:
- If you like Utena, do yourself a favour and check out the Revolutionary Girl Utena: Texts From Last Night tumblr blog. It's hilarious and my most favourite thing in the world at the moment!
- On that fairy tale note -- I've read Malinda Lo's Huntress, Jim C. Hines' Princess Series (oh my God, Talia! <3 <3 <3) and Emma Donoghue's Kissing the Witch, all of which can't be recommended enough. Loved every single book.
- Peter Gabriel covers Arcade Fire's "My Body Is A Cage"

Jul. 6th, 2011 11:45 pmAnyone else on my flist watching season 4 of True Blood?
Yes/no?
( Pretty entertaining things happened in 4.02... )
--
Speaking of which, anyone got recs for any really good crossover fics? I've never really dipped my toe in that specific genre, so am curious. All the fandoms I know are fair game. :)

Jul. 2nd, 2011 05:03 pmRe-watching season 1 and season 2 of Glee has lead me to the following conclusions/observations:
( Glee: season 1 )
--
( Glee: season 2 )
--
What else's been going on...
Trying to get my fic-writing mojo on. Am failing at the moment. Got a number of fic ideas for Glee now, which is making me both go D: as well as kind of... amusing me? It's drawing all my attention, goddamnit!
And let's throw a meme in here too while we're at it, why not. Any fandom I'm familiar with is fair game:
My het OTP:
My slash OTP:
My femslash OTP:
My endgame OTP:
My original OTP:
My crack OTP:
My guilty pleasure OTP:
My anti-OTP:
Hope everyone's fine and well. :)

Jun. 25th, 2011 02:56 pmNEEEWW YOOORK!!!! :D
Well done, you Americans! I wholeheartedly approve of this! :)
See? I'm not the only one who thinks this is great: a certain ~Lebanese~ woman has something to say about it too...
So, anyone wanna play? Let's celebrate!!! \o/ Methinks celebratory kisses and/or porn of the f/f variety is in order (m/m is welcome too -- equality after all)!
Feel free to prompt me with a pairing & scenario or action in a fandom I'm familiar with!

So -- Game of Thrones! Watched the season finale and then... being tired and bored resulted in the Deal With It meme sort of happening?
My excuse? I... have none. None at all. Spoilers like whoa ahead:
( This... basically summarises my thoughts? )
--
- I'm not even sure why I find this as amusing as I do, but -- oh well. Viserys *really* dislikes Spandau Ballet. Beware, spoiler for episode 6:
80's song + Game of Thrones = match meant to be? And Daenerys is just all, like: "Damn bro, yous trying to fuck with me? Me? Imma go all ~rah, rah, like a dungeon dragon~ on you ass, Nicki Minaj style!"
--
- I... don't know what to say to this, tbh. Let the crack commence: Game of Thrones Muppets!

Jun. 12th, 2011 08:14 pmLJ, I am still alive... I think? I just have to survive till next Thursday....
So, what else has been going on: Tumblr has sucked me in and made me its unwilling victim. I *tried* fighting it, but... there's a ton of pictures of very pretty girls there! How was I supposed to resist?
I want to indulge in writing a lot of fic too, but, again, no chance of doing that till next week at some point.
In other news, season 2 of Pretty Little Liars is near! Definitely looking forward to that. True Blood will be making its return with its fourth season too. That means I'll get my babyvamp back! Jessica, I heart you so! <3 I think I might watch a couple of episodes of Game of Thrones next week, once things calm down a bit. Looks like a show I could get really into.
What else...
- Utena voice actress, Tomoko Kawakami, passed away June 9. :c
Hearing this only makes me want to revisit Utena -- I *love* that goddamn anime.
- Apparently, this happened too:
( Someone ~likes girls~... )

May. 10th, 2011 06:19 pmGlee. 2x19: Rumours.
“So you two are in love? Soul mates, so to speak?”
“Yeah. I’d say that was accurate.”
OTP is end fucking game, people. Ryan Murphy & Co better not backpedal. Or else... *shakes fist*
All I seem to do lately is spam my LJ with Brittana/Santana gifs, but I can't really bring myself to feel sorry about it. :P
( And I think some other stuff also happened in this episode... )
-
Meme snagged from![[livejournal.com profile]](http://s.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
elle_white. I was given the letter S.
1. Comment with "the odds are ever in you favor"
2. I will give a letter
3. Post the names of five fictional characters and your thoughts on each.
( Five fictional characters under the cut! )
-
And while we are talking about Glee, have some fan contributions in the form of gifs and fan art by some talented folks:
- Quinn's a pick up artist. A most extraordinary on at that. [Faberry]
- How "Nationals" should have ended. [Brittana, Faberry, Kurt/Sam]
- Sweet lady kisses. [Brittana]
- Missing scene from "Blame It On The Alcohol". [Brittana]

ETA: Song Spoiler!
( Gloriously glorious spoiler for 2x19: Rumours )
Since I've friended some new people recently, I thought I'd just say hi. *waves*
I guess that means it's meme time:
Ask me a fandom-related question in the comments. This can be fandom specific, general, or about fandom/lj stuff/fic writing/etc. in general. Questions can be as wacky as you want. Ask me about tv shows, characters, fanfic, fandom issues/meta, anything about anything. Whatever you want.
And then I'll just leave these here, too:
( Tumblr pictures! Mostly of pretty girls! You know you wanna look! )

It's a spoiler I very, very much like! :D

Oh, Jasika Nicole, aka Astrid Farnsworth from Fringe, *be still my heart!* Creative and able to get all those feelings across in only a few panels! Gorgeous and touching.

It's sad but oh so true -- *all* of these fanfic macros fit me to a T. Stupid Fanfic Flamingo! Judging me with your beady eyes!

Fic rec: what were the greek ships on fire - Merlin; Morgana/Morgause by Anonymous. Found this in the Merlin Kinkmeme and whoo, boy -- it's yummy! Gorgeously lyrical and just a great read, considering how short it is. Whoever wrote it should fess up! Makes me want to try to delve into some Morgana/Morgause of myself now...

So, we have fanfic archives where you can search for pairings, genres, whatever, correct? How the hell come there's *nothing* of this kind of thing when it comes to fanvids? You could search for the song which you know would just work *perfectly* in a certain vid and hopefully find it used in your fandom of choice. I'd love to see something like this around.
This brought on by me listening to Franz Ferdinand's Michael recently and not being able to find the song used in a Lost Boys fanvid! Say what? Come on!

Mar. 9th, 2011 01:13 pmOh Glee. I wish I knew how to quit you. *tilts cowboy hat*
And on that homo note:
@tumblr@
Let's sum it up: Naya Rivera's face!!! ♥ I love this girl! Brb, adding her *face* as an interest!
Santana, baby girl! Wai you have to go make my heart go all pitter-patter at the sight of you? Wai?
*throws hands in the air* Gah! I need some distraction. I think Joan Jett rocking the mike in her (far superior to the original, tbh) cover version of this song will suffice.
So close, episode, so close! Too bad you ended up faceplanting quite spectacularly towards the end there. :-/
Someone, talk to me about this ep! About Santana being Santana! What you want to see happen now! About all the (confusing) Faberry action going on as well!
PS: Santana and Brittany for Prom Queen andKing Queen, y/y? They'd compete against Finn and Quinn for the title and it'd be *glorious!*
.... Why can't we have good things in this world? Waaaiii? ;__;
PPS: "Afternoon Delight" is really kind of a perverted song, isn't it? Surprisingly so.

Feb. 28th, 2011 10:48 amSo, the thing with Glee is...
Whatever the Glee fandom is putting out there of fics and vids is far superior to whatever Ryan Murphy and Co. are coming up with on the screen. Seems like that's just how it is and has always been.
Which means there's nothing quite like coming across something which could have been taken directly from your own brain. It's kind of very reaffirming to find out that some people out there are thinking along the same lines as you when it comes to certain things. So, LFTMFifteen, thank you for making this. :)
I am in serious need to read the accompanying fic for this now.
Lol forever at Santana and Queermo Quinn! ♥

Feb. 21st, 2011 07:33 pmSo, I purchased Jennifer's Body a few days ago, and, yes, rewatching it only confirmed it being *exactly* as lesbigay as I remembered it being the first time I saw it. :)
Especially one of the deleted scenes *really* hit the ball out of the field.

Oh Lordy, just after Glee's Beiber episode, and then the kid has to open his dumb little mouth and say stuff like this! Beiber, go educate yourself -- and, please, don't talk about things you apparently don't know *anything about*. *grouchy*

Before I actually caught myself going ".... hmm, yes," after a moment or two.
Can't deny that Naya's got a pretty face...
WIP meme making the rounds at the moment:
Post the names of all the files in your WIP folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous.
So, some of these are merely at the idea state, while others... actually have a few words attached to them? Also, not a lot of these have an actual title or anything.
( Anime )
( TV Shows )
Feel free to ask about any of them.
