I haven't seen BSG yet. Acquiring the episodes takes a while for someone who routinely requires the bandwidth for things other than *cough*illegaltorrents*cough*, so to solace myself, I've been reading everything I can find about the premiere episodes ( Read more... )

And you've been missed too, Leda! (and now I'll stop using the passive voice ;0))

Short answer: yes, I'm interested! *waves hand*

Longer answer(s): "Djinn" sounds intriguing, though I'm not quite sure what erotic fiction of a supernatural, varyingly kinky bent exactly works out to. :0) But hey, I'll check it out!

And I would love to read fic in the Kushiel world... I really enjoyed the dense plots of that series, though strangely I felt that, for a series built around a courtesan, there was much less sex than I might've expected. (And rather flowery sex, at that!) I think it would be fascinating to see more "muscular" storytelling in that 'verse. Not just talking about having a central male character, either. (I liked Imriel well enough, but he wasn't as compelling as Phedre, IMO.)

Didn't pay all that much attention to KoH, but agree that the cast of characters is a compelling one to play with. Maybe you'll be the one to make me care about them. :0)

I was all set to wail and moan about never seeing any more Leda BSG fic, but I don't think that's what you're saying, is it? I mean, I could wish that you would finish your WIP where K/L are settled on a planet together, but I can see why that might have lost its appeal. But hopefully the new season will give us all more mind-blowing canon to write around.

Glad to hear the lad is keeping you busy, and wafting some lucky fairy dust your way for the job hunt!

'varyingly kinky bent' means I'm pretty wierd in my own head, I guess. I have a few ideas to explore that aren't quite vanilla, you might say, and probably might be found in the 'unusual tastes' department of Honeydukes rather than on the shelves for general consumption.

Oh look, an old fandom! *G* no. No more HP for me.

And Imriel was a kid. I have to admit, I was far more interested in Joscelin and his moral dilemma than most of anything to do with Melisande and her son. Still, they're beautifully written books, and I'm tantalised by the little glimpses of insight into the other houses of the Night Court; with a yen to explore Gentian and Balm and Jasmine and Briony in a little more detail, plus the servants of the other gods. I love a well-develloped history, even if the readers only get to see little snippets of it.

Oh, there'll be BSG. I promise. I actually woke up a little while ago dreaming about fucking pilots, I'm insane. So I'm going off to watch Occupation now. *glees*

Thanks, Indigo!
