Oh, my goodness, who renewed my Paid time? Thank you so much! I was just resigning myself to being without comment-editing and polls and userpics and protection from advertising, and all of a sudden: unexpected anonymous loveliness! Amazing ( Read more... )

Riona, if you don't finish the Merlin&Gwen bodyswap, please please pleeeease post all you've written. Or, idk, I will write tales of Merlin and Gwen sadly awaiting the fic and wondering how they will live without knowing how they would cope if they swapped bodies (and in Gwen's case, how different the world would be if Merlin had magic).

Here is a condensed review because I am tired and awful like the scent of rotten eggs.

“Having encountered the charming Dr Harper, Jack,” Balthier said, folding his arms, “I have to confess that I hold a rather poor opinion of those you call your ‘friends’, and I’ll thank you not to include us among them.”

HILARIOUSEST. I mean. It is perfect and there is no other word for it. I laughed aloud and I don't even know the fandom.

I LOVE HOW YOU HAVE WORKED DOCTOR/TARDIS IN. People working in marvellous little ships has become a thing for me lately. And Balthier is AMAZING. If there was a Doctor Who spinoff about them I would watch it religiously. Well. If it was written by you/to you-standard, I would ( ... )

I hope I'll finish the bodyswap some day! Alas, at the moment I have only eight hundred words or so. (I do have to point out that 'finish your fic or I shall be forced to write fanfiction' may not be the most effective threat.)

I am glad you think Balthier is amazing despite not being familiar with his fandom, because Balthier is amazing. Here, to illustrate, is a video in which Balthier and Fran kidnap a guy and zoom off on a flying motorbike. YEAH.

(For a second when he said 'how can you afford to be here' I thought Silent Hill was a resort Mark had paid endless money to be at.)

I cracked up at this. I think Silent Hill is supposed to be quite a nice little resort town when it's not BEING EVIL, but, er, no, that wasn't the intention.

Thank you so much for your lovely lovely comments!

W-What happens in those eight hundred words? A-And what is your plot? I AM CURIOUS, OKAY, IT SOUNDS REALLY GOOD.

I like how his response to explosions is 'what an entrance'. ALSO SHE CATCHES HIM WITH THE BIKE, THAT IS WAY COOL.

It would be just the luck of Mark Corrigan to spend thousands of pounds at what he thinks will finally be a good holiday (I have no knowledge of Mark's holidays thus far, BUT I AM GUESSING THEY ARE DISASTROUS), only to end up in Silent Hill. And then Jeremy somehow manages to make Silent Hill worse just by being there.

I can't imagine what Mark would see in Silent Hill. How to make his life even worse? And Jeremy doesn't appear to feel guilt. Perhaps Silent Hill will be all about their repressed love for each other. PERHAPS. Or maybe Silent Hill feels sorry for Mark and tries to give him a lovely time and Pyramid Head becomes a lovely woman who likes him and doesn't care for small talk and JEREMY APPEARS AND RUINS IT ALL.

I don't have much of a plot at the moment, I have to confess, but what definitely happens is that Arthur finds out about Merlin's magic because Gwen can't control it in his body.

(I have no knowledge of Mark's holidays thus far, BUT I AM GUESSING THEY ARE DISASTROUS)

As Mark's holidays have ended variously in accidentally getting engaged, unwillingly getting involved in arson, thinking Jeremy's killed himself and being offered a job, only to have it snatched away when Jeremy unintentionally kills and eats the job-offerer's daughter's dog, you would be correct. Oh, Mark. Your life would be so much simpler if there weren't a Jeremy in it, but of course you can never leave each other.

Or maybe Silent Hill feels sorry for Mark and tries to give him a lovely time and Pyramid Head becomes a lovely woman who likes him and doesn't care for small talk and JEREMY APPEARS AND RUINS IT ALL.

This idea is hilarious. Poor Mark!

I'm a month late with this, but: eva_kasumi April 17 2010, 23:12:43 UTC
The best part of the Mentalist one is that I can hear Cho giving phonesex in his deadpan tone the entire time. It's fantastic. XD

I also adore the continued adventures of the time-travelling airship pirates and the Merlin bodyswap and everything involving Derren Brown. I adore how your fics always have such absurd premises and are always perfectly in character. Are you going to finish these? Please finish these! <3

Oh my heart the KH one <3

I have always craved more Seifer backstory.

I'm so curious about Seifer and Squall in the Kingdom Hearts universe. If they're different ages and live in different worlds, how did they get their scars?

Kingdom Hearts Seifer is hilarious. I hope he shows up again in future titles.

(Here from Paint It Red, where you've been nominated for an award)

I'm not normally big on Mentalist slash, but that was so utterly adorable. Is it bad that Lisbon's reactions were probably my favourite part of it though? I love her, probably to an unhealthy extent. :-)

Thank you so much; I'm glad you enjoyed it! (Not bad at all; I love Lisbon endlessly.) And I'm very excited to hear I've been nominated!
