Oh... Nice meme!

Terminator: Never got around to watch T2 (yep, I know, blasphemy around here...) but I found myself pleasantly surprised when I watched the first one. I wasn't expecting much of it and ended up loving the movie. I thought it really did a great job with Sarah's character, fate and even attempt at a tragic love story. And besides I've always had a thing with time being tricky and TW this story like 'Twelves monkeys' fascinated me.

Buffy and Luke: Again, I wholeheartedly agree with you. TW Buffy's one of my faves, why I wanted to be her when I was (waaaay) younger. As for Luke, never was a fan of his in the OT alone (liked him but just liked Han better) but then he outgrew to be one of these favorite characters of mine since the PT.

Chocolate: I'm addicted to it. :P

A/P: Always nice to see you rambling about them. :) Thank you for pointing out why it's important to make a difference between what's good in RL and what we love in fiction. Best example? Romeo and Juliet. Completely dysfunctional and incredibly immature in RL. Fiction? One of the best if not the best love story of all time...

Miss your A/P fics BTW. ;)

I was the same way about Terminator - I didn't expect more than a generally enjoyable action flick that didn't linger in my head too long after I took it out of the DVD player.

If you love temporal wonkiness, it only gets better in T2. :P

Miss your A/P fics BTW. ;)

Thanks. :) There are a couple of semi-ambitious AUs I've been tinkering around with for a while; I'm hoping to have something postable soon. I wouldn't mind having a beta for them, if you're interested...

And if you want your seven, they are: alias, george lucas, hayden christensen, heroes, moulin rouge, padme amidala, xander/cordelia. :)

First, good news! :) Second, thanks for proposing but... you have to know English is not my native language unfortunately...

Oh, some are tough. I'll see what I can do. ;)

I would never have known if you hadn't said anything - your English is excellent. :) And there are other things to beta in a story besides grammar/spelling (which I nitpick myself on pretty heavily anyway ;)), but I understand if you're not comfortable.

Oh thank you! :)

I would be really happy to beta these at any rate! Let me know what you decide. :) But if you're looking for a professional beta ;) I would strongly recommend leia_naberrie. She's awesome even though I'm not sure she has a lot of time on her hands lately...
