I could make a joke about my fandom dance card, but I'll spare you.

[rivlee]

It's going to be a busy summer for me in terms of fandom.

First, I have Animazement which is HOLY SHIT in two weeks. I really need to a) find my camera b) find a suitcase and c) decide if I'm going to bring the laptop with me, which since I'll be on the train I probably should. azure_raven, aduial_peredhel I'd ask if you'd want me to bring any of my 10 thousand dvds, but

AND NOW I'M WONDERING IF I SHOULD DO WWB AS WELL. I mean, my original plan was not to do it this year (and feel a little ashamed that I never got around to organising HWBB, but there's the Exchange and next year, right?). But now I'm thinking, well, I could always add another 20k to my current TL mod AU (and then realise that IT'LL BE AT LEAST 30K IN LENGTH, LOLWEEPING)

But, omg, Shan. I am so excited for what you will be writing for WBB. WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS? I KNOW YOU'RE STILL FIGURING OUT ANY SOLID IDEAS, BUT WHAT OF VAGUE ONES?

Will re-read that ficlet! I caught it last night right before bed and reveled in the glory of Ray-Ray for a second before falling asleep (go self).

You should take a trip back up to NY sometime, when you manange. Y'know, without the requirement of stockings and heels.

[rivlee]

I THINK YOU SHOULD DO IT! (And you know that mod AU is going to be huge anyway, in for a penny, in for a pound I say!) (And the Exchange shall be awesome. As will a chance for the HWBB next year. I just hope more Pacific/BoB people show up for WBB this year.)

I have NO CLUE what I'll be writing. I know it will be AU, b/c of my whole "issues" and I really, really, want to showcase The Pacific crew, but know it will probably crossover with BoB. I've had one very vague idea about a Supernatural Cop AU thing, but I don't know if that will be too left field. I really need to have a brain storming session about it.

I always try to make plans to go up to NY and stay with my godmother, but something always falls through. At least least I passed by the area on the move down from Boston. Le sigh.

YOU KNOW I HAVE NO RESISTANCE WHEN IT COMES TO CAPS, SHAN /SIGNS UP. (And, hey, even if I don't get the entry finished, I think I'd be def close to wrapping up once it's over anyway, so win-win how's I see it.) (And def agreeing on more TP/BoB representation this year. At least I know there's you'n me!)

Supernatural Cop AU thing does sound pretty interesting. Kind of like, say, Dresden Files-esque? Either way, I know whatever you'll come up with'll be awesome and I can't wait.

Ah, well. It sucks, but one day, right!

[rivlee]

ALL HAIL THE POWER OF THE CAPS LOCK. (Also, eeeeee!) And yeah, if you don't finish, at least you'll get a ton of work done on it.

See, I'm debating of doing something Dresden Files-esque, something Buffy-esque, or something that's just an Alt. World where magic and all those things is these norm and this is just your normal police force or something.

As I said, I still need to think/stew about it. I'm going to give myself until after I come back from the anime con weekend and then start plotting things out.

[augustbird]

shan. i totally have your back with this pacific AU. i love AUs. and the more left field, the better.

[rivlee]

Thank you, bb! I am really, really leaning that way, because the idea has been swirling around my head for months now. I think I'm probably going to go for some alt verse where magic/monster is the norm, just to switch it up and not be TOO Dresden Files/Buffy/Being Human/Grimm-esque. Or maybe something vaguely 10th Kingdom-y or Tin Man/Alice-ish where someone gets sucked into an alt! world where this is the norm.

[augustbird]

omg words cannot express my excitement properly enough THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH SUPERNATURAL AU'S IN THE WORLLLLD :DDDDDD

and kalsjdfksd sadface at myself at the fact that i've never seen any of the shows you mentioned--i think it's time for me to find torrents y/y?

[rivlee]

There really aren't enough Supernatural AUs and I know part of it is the horror/fantasy genre throws people off, but come on, Urban Fantasy can be awesome

[augustbird]

looking up grimm right now!

i think i've seen commercials for being human! i don't think i was that intrigued by the commercials tbh--maybe i'll look it up again and see xD

10th kingdom sounds really interesting! and a miniseries! i approve! i'll see what i can do about finding it :D :D

!!! for some reason, i can't see buck as a tin man at all. AM DEFINITELY GOING TO HAVE TO AT LEAST YOUTUBE THIS! and whoaaaa at all of the bob/tp alum popping up all over the place--i keep seeing them guest starring everywhere--LIKE THE TIME JON SEDA WAS ON HAWAII FIVE-0 AND I HAD TO PAUSE TO MAKE SURE IT WAS HIM ON IMDB.

[rivlee]

Grimm is starting in the fall, and I legit, cannot wait.

10th Kingdom owns my tiny little fairy tale loving heart. As I said, it's cheesetastic, but I can't help the love.

Well, in Tin Man, the tin man is more, like, a sheriff with a tin bage (a tin man, *ba dum bum*) but that's a whole other story.

I saw Jon Seda on Burn Notice, like, last season or something and I was the same way. I had to go right to imdb to figure out it was him.

[skylilies]

HI CREEPING, YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY DO WWB. =D

[uniformly]

LOL, I totally am. I think the rest of my year in terms of fandom contribution will be this WBB entry, those prompts, and the Exchange.

HEY, ARE YOU GOING TO DO WBB? I mean, not as a writer. But you do make some badass fanmixes. Y'know, just sayin' /enables harder.

[skylilies]

yes ♥ I AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS. WRITIIING.

MAYBE SOME DAY IN MY FAR FUTURE I WILL BE ABLE TO DO WBB AS A WRITER. ....jenny totally did enable me into writing a 1400+ word TP fic (WHICH IS LONG FOR ME LMFAO. THE LAST TIME I WROTE A CHAPTERED FIC I WAS UM. FOURTEEN. AND IT WAS HORRIBLE, OKAY.) so ....maybe some day the length of my writing will increase =D and i didn't know you could do fanmixes for it! I DO ENJOY MY MIXING.

[uniformly]

Jen's powers of enabling are an amazing thing, ngl. And I still have to read that fic. Ugh, why so behind, self?

You can def do fanmixes as a Crafter! Details are here, if you wanted to check it out 8D

[skylilies]

...i have found i suddenly become more productive when i'm attempting to talk to her while she's writing. I DO BETTER AT WRITING AT SAME TIME AS OTHER PEOPLE? otherwise i tend to get annoyed with the fic and distracted, haha. and i think you commented on one of my fics a bit ago! (the leckie!centric one, maybe?)

...contemplating. i did a mix for help_japan so i'm a little more confident about my abilities to get it done on time/as a request =D OH MY GOD YOU ARE ALL ENABLERS.

[rivlee]

Well, damn, you've figured out our enabling ways. ;)

I second, Nat on the fanmix enabling. Esp since you can do it BOTH for the exchange and WBB. Just throwing the idea out there. *whistles*
