The Obscure & British Commentfest continues! \o/ It is my birthday weekend now, so I shall be pimping again, at least a little, to see if I can poke it into some further weekend action (and then I promise I shall at least stop pimping). It's going nicely and we have a whole bunch of fills (including Spike from Buffy paying a visit to Nouvion ( Read more... )

LOL

Did anything turn up for you yet? I posted your card on Wednesday.

Your present did! I'm sorry - I meant to say, and then must have just wound up thinking I had said. (Or at least, something that I believe is your present, at any rate). I have a bunch of cards, so I expect yours is among them - I shall tell you tomorrow! (I'm sometimes a bit clueless about handwriting identification.)

I did friend you on purpose this week and I have it on good authority that I am not a "bot".

P.S. Happy Birthday!!

The Blake's 7 fic is really funny! I can imagine the crew reacting exactly like you wrote them.

And the Palfrey Sandbaggers one is absolutely fascinating. I wonder whether Willie's faith in Neil was still that strong by the end of the show.

Aw, thank you!

I meant the ending to be kind of ironic but I wrote it before having watched the final ep, so it's even more ironic than I thought. However, I don't think Willie would have expressed doubts to someone like Mr Palfrey whatever he thought. Thank you for reading it! <3

There really oughtta be Obscure & British tats, for the fest. Walking promotion! (Temporary peel-off version, obvs. Unless someone was really committed.) With roses and ivy trailing around gothic lettering, I think...

Hmm, I'm not sure rl promotion would be terribly useful - I wonder what the online equivalent would be? Probably a link or banner on the side of the blog or something!

Any O&B tattoo should definitely have roses and trailing ivy, though. :-)
