Still on the Quest

The Timelord has nudged out Sherlock. But if you've got a moment to decide between Aragorn and Severus...

This is much harder than Superman...

The first TEN people to comment in this post get to request that I write a drabble of any pairing/character of their choosing. In return, they have to post this in their journal, regardless of their ability level.

1. Holmes/Watson for Gayalondiel (done!)
2. Solo/Kuryakin for Random_nexus (done)
3. Frodo Baggins/Lily Proudfoot(OFC) for Belegcuthalion (done!)
4. Holmes/Watson crossed with Harry Potter for Elendiari (requested)
5. Bergil for Dreamflower (done!)
6. Sam for Periantari (requested)
7. Holmes and irritated Watson for Poeticmaiden (requested)
8. Mike Gambit for Timeless (requested)
9. Watson from the movie for Ancalime (requested)
10. Holmes comforting Watson -- awkwardly for Daylyn (requested)

Mind you, when I say a drabble, I mean it. *Grin*

Any fandom you see among my tags is fair game. I don't guarantee pairing things being at all romantic, though... Not my forte.

1. Write down the names of 10 characters.

2. Write a fic of fifteen words or less (a limitation I cheerfully ignored, although I did try to keep them short) for every prompt, using the characters determined by the numbers. DO NOT read the prompts before you do step 1.

( This would have been easier if I'd chosen characters from only one fandom )

From half my flist:

( List the first lines of your last twenty stories. See if you find any patterns. )

Patterns? Lots of dialogue, lots of complex or compound sentences. Lots of first person, lots of angsty hints. Holmes, NCIS and New Avengers all mixed up together.

samena challenged me to do this.


The meme and questions: Comment and I'll LJ stalk you to find three fandoms you apparently love. And then you answer these questions about them!

01: What got you into this fandom in the first place?
02: Do you think you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
03: Favorite episodes/books/movies/etc.?
04: Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
05: Do you think that more people should get into this fandom?

And as for me:

( Sherlock Holmes )

( The New Avengers )

( Howl's Moving Castle )

Reply to this meme by yelling "Words!" and I will give you five words that remind me of you. Then post them in your LJ and explain what they mean to you.


janeturenne gave me these words:

Maiwand, Mary, movie, drabble, books

( Let's start with the M's... )

( drabble )

( books )

Christmas music... I got the list off of Wikipedia, so it isn't perfect.  Bold for ...hm... own it.  Italics for have heard it but don't own it.  Strike through for "please don't make me listen to that again", Nothing for "what the heck is that?"  (If you have it in more than one language bold both versions of the title.)



Mind you, I haven't doublechecked the list myself yet... this is just off the top of my head.
 

(I stripped out all the html about cash advance loans, btw. I'm guessing that's there to get the google rating higher.)

Now honestly, if you look at my recent entries and consider the plethora of commas, complex sentences, arcane vocabulary and all, do YOU think of elementary school?

Name a CD you own that no one else on your friends list might have.

Hallmark Presents Julie Andrews: The Sounds of Christmas From Around the World. As far as I know it was only ever available in Hallmark stores and only in 1990, but it has some of my favorite versions of Christmas Carols on it.

Name a book you own that no one else on your friends list might have.

Oooh, that's gonna be harder than it looks. *Considers eclectic collection on shelves* *Considers eclectic collection on flist*

Let's go with The Importance of Pot Liquor by Jackie Torrance.

Name a movie you own on DVD/VHS/whatever that no one else on your friends list might have.

Romance With A Double Bass. John Cleese does Chekov! In his altogether!

Name a place that you have visited that no one else on your friends list might have.

Well, there's this cave in Nebraska I went to with the Girl Scouts once...

I googled and came up with Indian Cave State Park, but apparently that's not a real cave, so it must have been Robber's Cave I remember, because we were definitely underground.

Name a piece of technology or any sort of tool you own that you think no one else on your friends list might have.

An Epson QX-10 computer! (Okay, okay at this point it's a museum piece. But I still have it.)
