Fics I will never write (except for these bits)

[vilakins]

I've finally written those snippets of fics you think I will never ever write. I might note that these are the best of a frightening bunch.

Wonderful! All wonderful. Oh, why do you make it look so easy. ::sulks::

And of course Vila would work at the wine-making, I should have realized. And: He and Vila looked at each other in mutual horror. And screamed. After reading that, so did I.

I do think my favorite one is the Hiro, though. How clever of you to refer back to your HP crossover. :) I wasn't sure about the dialect, though, until I got to Burakyu's 7, which is absolutely priceless! As was Jenna's reaction. And somebody needs to make a "Save the bounty hunter, save the galaxy" icon, stat.

[mistraltoes]

D'oh. I mean Burayku's 7, obviously.

I did Japanese at school so I know how they handle hard English words. I remember Hiro saying "Sitar Tureku" in one ep; say it fast with the emphasis in the right places and the extra syllables hardly voiced. :-)

I've been slack. I haven't written anything for a while. I have to get back into it.

[mistraltoes]

Oh, no, I know that you got the sounds in the dialect right. I just meant that writing dialect is largely out of fashion because it's often considered difficult to read or offensive. Every time I write Jarriere in dialect I worry about it. I would have heard 'Sitar Tureku' even if you'd written 'Star Trek', but I might not have heard 'Bureyku's 7', so in this case the use of dialect did enhance my enjoyment of the story.

These are absolutely brilliant - and effectively entire fics in their own right. I am blown away by your talent!

[vilakins]

[blush] Thank you! That's finished my week off very nicely. :-)

Now these are the reason I didn't leave you a *plot*, because I know there is nothing you can't write and very little you would not write if dared. These are magnificent.LOL at bits of them all.

[vilakins]

I find it much easier to write to a specific scanerio than a more general topic like the fanfic100 ones. I'm just glad there was one in each group I could do.

[jaxomsride]

These are great and you'll definitely have to get back into writing more often.
Loved the idea of a lashectomy and a nose job for Avon, poor fool doesn't he know it's the eyes and the voice that gets us every time! (Scientific research even shows that women are more attracted to these features!)

Loved Hiro on the Liberator, save the bounty hunter, save the galaxy!

Tarrant and Vila looked at each other in mutual horror and screamed - Priceless!

As for the time travelling Avon, snort!

Loved them all carry on writing!

[vilakins]

Thank you!

I'm certainly attracted to eyes (why do guys have longer eyelashes?) and I do rather like Avon's big nose. I like big noses. :-)

[jaxomsride]

I know its so unfair, that's why mascara was invented (not that I'd wear it!).
Not sure about the noses but considering my favourites you may have a point.
Ah well, as Rathbone's Holmes remarked "Prominent men have prominent noses!"

[vilakins]

I think they go with intellect and I find that attractive.

with a strange desire to hug him tightly

Oh this is wonderful! Fantastic! Lovely! Awwww.

And he would come in with a stupid cryptic message that doesn't actually help much. Comic book Blake's 7! He would, wouldn't he?

(huge grin all over face)

Look, I've got a late harvest vintage to bottle.

That makes perfect sense, doesn't it? 8-)

[vilakins]

Hiro probably didn't have much choice; that was all Isaac's current story and pictures gave him. And I'm definitely thinking of an icon now.

Maybe Vila the winemaker doesn't drink as much as he did before: a surfeit can have that effect. At uni I had a holiday job in a biscuit factory (Griffin's) and only at one a day if that. Seeing so many of them marching by (the mallowpuffs looked like WW2 German infantry on parade) was an overload.
