"Great achievements raise a monument, which shall endure until the sun grows cold."
→ I'm actually updating two days in a row! This is weird.
→ My fandom productivity: let me show you it.
Exhibit A) The SGA: Elizabeth Weir Picspam I promised! LOOK AT HOW CUTE SHE IS OMG. No, seriously. Even if you don't watch SGA (which I realize is most of you) just take a quick look at the cute! She is so awkward when being hit on! I hearts it. I want to be Lizzeh when I grow up. (If I could look like her too, that'd be awesome.)
(This is only the first ten minutes of Sunday, 3x17. Spoilers for LIZZEH BEING ADORABLE, but not for major plot stuffs.)
Also, note how adorkable that dude is. Mountain man, much? And he has some srsly BAD lines, but it's okay! Because Lizzeh kinds of needs someone who is as socially awkward as she is *cough* like John Sheppard. But Mike will do for now. :D
"I guess that leaves you at lunch."
Exhibit B) Battlestar: Galactica music! Seasons 1-3, for snapplesons! And anyone else who wants it. Zip, approx 350 mb.
Exhibit C) More fic! This is for milena_barbosa, who requested a sequel to Straight to Center (House/Cuddy, Paris, baby!death) aaaaaages ago. It isn't necessary to have read that fic to understand this one, but you'd probably get more out of it if you did. milena_barbosa, I hope you like it! ♥ Also, I owe swatkat24 a kidney or something, for wadding through all those semi-colons. She's a saint, I tell you.
→ The Last Snowfall | HouseCuddy | pg13 | On November 14th, it begins to snow.
(Me? Name a fic after a Vienna song? Phfftt. You're a crazy person.)
Exhibit D) I have signed up for the swficathon. I will probably regret this. Especially with cuddy_fest just round the bend, too.
Exhibit E) My List of HBICs:
Firsts: Dr. Elizabeth Weir | Dr. Lisa Cuddy | President Laura Roslin | Lt. Col. Kara Thrace | Teyla Emmagan | Miss Parker | CJ Cregg | Abby Bartlett
Seconds (ppl in this category not from my 'primary' fandoms but are still kickass): Temperance (Bones) Brennen | Dana Scully | Irena Derevko | Cordelia Chase | Aeyren Sun | Zoe Washburne
Lols: Rahm Emmanuel and Vladimir Putin!
And: I don't watch the show (often), but for ajoyfulheart! Olivia Benson
Exhibit F) Meme!
→ Comment to this entry and I'll pick three of your fandoms. Then, update your journal and answer the following questions:
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?
From mad_carrie: Weeds, Bones, House
Weeds
01. I started watching it because I adore Mary-Louise Parker, and - seriously? it's about pot. How is that not awesome? But alas, I haven't seen that much of it because a) I don't have cable, b) school, c) antiqueskies and her barrage of awesome sci-fi.
02. Um, since I've only seen s1 and wasn't really in the fandom to begin with... hopefully watch it later! We did just order Netflix*....
03.b Honestly, I only vaguely remember two scenes: Justin Kirk describing the best way to masturbate (? or something about masturbation), and MLP finding out school-aged kids were dealing drugs and trying to stop it. *failure*
04. Er, nope.
05. I think I should get into this fandom.
Bones
01. DAVID BOREANAZ. I am so shallow. That's the only reason I started watching it, and then I got hooked because a) massive awkward flirting ftw! and b) it's a really good show! with a lot of wonderful characters and solid plots and that's so freaking hard to find these days.
02. Not so much in the fandom itself; Bones is one of my 'I watch it whenever it's on/my mom sits me down and "forces" me to watch it with her on Hulu' shows.
03. More like moments rather than episodes: I remember the one where Brennen and Zack (? I think it was) were buried alive in the car and Booth dug her out ( shippy goggles, what?); I remember the scene when they discovered Zack was guilty, and Brennen sitting by his bedside in the hospital and asking him why just broke my heart.
04. Not really, no.
05. Should probably join the fandom. It seems awesome. Should also watch the whole series, rather than random episodes.
House
01. As much as it pains me to say it, my dad got me into it. Gross, right? I know. And then I fell in love with Cuddy. And the rest is history.
02. I think I'll be stuck here for at least as long as the show continues. It's a crazy, cracked-out, bitchy, disturbed, immature, frightening fandom and I love it. Where would we be without ship wars and random female-character hate? *sigh* There are awesome things about it, though. I remember back when it was fairly small and new, and house_cuddy had like, 200 people. That was back in the days of the good fic: Addiction, Ill Season, Detox Revised, Coupling, Burgundy, Nocturne in E. Minor, and so on. Not to say that there isn't good fic now (swatkat24, ijemanja, antiqueskies are all proof of that) but I feel like the ratios between good fic and wtfisthat? was better then. That's not to say I'm going anywhere, though! cuddy_fest round three has only just begun! ^^
03. Oh, jesus. Um. Frak. Babies and Bathwater, because Cuddy is a BAMF. Three Stories (duh). Humpty Dumpty, because even though it's atrociously named and revolves around stereotypes, it's the first time we actually got decent Cuddy screen-time. Forever, for the ot3ness. Finding Judas, because I still don't have my soul back. Fetal Position (detecting a pattern, here?) House's Head/Wilson's Heart (duh). Birthmarks, for the brotp. Joy, Under My Skin, Both Sides Now, etc etc etc.
04. Mod (primarily house_cuddy and co-co-mod cuddy_fest), fic, icons.
05. Welcome to the crazy, I say!
