Memes ahoy, and also recs.
Meme 1 - To get you in the mood...
Give me a character (and no one is off limits, whether they come from a book, a movie, television, you get the picture) and I will give you at least five facts about them according to my own personal canon. This can range from their birthday, favorite color or even their earliest memory up to what they had last night for dinner. (I'm accepting Real People, as well as characters, because I'm weird like that, and my personal canon of people is weird.)
I only request that these be characters/people I know. Otherwise it will be difficult to come up with things for them.
Some Merlin Recs - Because Alex asked so nicely...
There are a few good comms. You've probably found them already. merlinfic is one, thegaytable is another, much smaller one, merlinslash is pretty self explanitory, and merlinrpf is obviously the absolute resource for RPF and RPS. You should also check out camelotcorner because it's yavannauk's MerlinFic journal, and she's gooood.
The 'Storm in Someone Else's Teacup' Fic can be found here. It's ludicrously long, and very good, as is paperclipbitch the author, who is a fantastic writer, and you should definitely read anything of interest in her tags.
Drastically Redefining Protocol. The AU fic of pure awesome. Can be found here at rageprufrock's lj. I love it to pieces, and the 'Sextras' will- ...Well, let's just say you might need to invest in some flame-proof pants. That's some very good porn.
The Rec Posts I'm working my way through at the moment obviously have a fair amount of overlap, but they all have unique stories that are worth checking out.
The Rec list from PolyFandomRecs is here.
Miniminkie's list is here.
RagePruFrock's Delicious is here.
Oz's Delicious is here.
A Random Delicious list - here.
And the whole of Delicious's Merlin/Arthur Recs here.
An archive that's just getting up on it's own two feet is the Merlin Fanfiction Archive, which can be found here.
If you still want more after that I suggest you refresh all of the pages or go to the Pit of Voles. If you need more after all that, you probably need some kind of medical help. ♥

Meme 3 - Bring on the Show-Tunes.
1. Post a list of fandoms. Between 10 and 25.
2. Have your flist guess your favourite character from those fandoms.
3. When guessed, bold the fandom, enter in who got it and a sentence about why you like the character/person.
You can guess as many or as few as you like. If you don't know the fandom, skip it.
I'm more than likely to have more than one favourite in any given fandom, so keep guessing.

P.S. For those of you who are on twitter, check out Cursebird.com a feed of people swearing on twitter. Look yourself up. Apparently I swear like a Scottish Comedian, what's your score? ...In my defense, boredom does weird things to me.
