Jan. 23rd, 2012 11:53 pmFor the first time, I'm taking part in an anonymous fanfic feedback meme!
My thread is here. Concrit is very welcome.

Crossover thoughts
Jan. 21st, 2012 07:09 pmWhy are there no Smallville / X-Men First Class crossovers?
Imagine the possibilities. You'd only have to adjust the XMFC/SV timelines a bit, and:
- Erik & Charles could try to recruit Lex, who definitely counts as a mutant.
- Lex could approach Erik with some scheme later on, after Erik and Charles have gone through the beach divorce.
- Lex and Erik could actually team up for some effort. Just imagine how awesome they would be; incredibly scary, scarily brilliant, not trusting each other in the slightest, and probably liking and respecting each other quite a bit.
- Charles could know Lex because they went to the same boarding school for the super rich. They quite probably moved in the same circles
- Charles and Lex could have worked together on some research program at university. Or they could team up for one now. They would also be an awesome team - the combined brain power alone...
- Charles could approach politician!Lex to ensure his support for the mutant cause.
Clark is a bit of the odd alien out here, not being a mutant and all. But it occurs to me that kryptonite is a metal... and of course, any scheme of Lex's is sure to either directly involve Clark and/or bring Clark running posthaste.

Three more "3 sentence" meme story fragments. Again, they are somewhat longer than 3 sentences, and are in order of striking inspiration. Four more to go!
Junno is an alien vampire baker, Ryo is a vampire prosecutor. Needless to say, sparkliness ensues. (for![[personal profile]](http://s.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)

Junno/Ryo in an office AU. (forlulumeow)
( 'You told me that you can deal with my shoulders looking the way they do, but that my cheekbones are just unfair. You, uhm, also announced to the marketing department that you were going to do tequila shots off of, errrr, uhm. And I, uh, well, I was kinda drunk too, so I - but fortunately they didn't have any limes, so you had to drink the tequila straight from the bottle instead. And then you -' )
Alicia and Kalinda in the Star Trek:TNG verse (forjona)
( 'He's not Vulcan,' Kalinda said. She fairly vibrated with contained energy, her nose ridges flushing a dusky rose with the joy of discovery. )

Due to unforseen circumstances, I have at last decided to stick a toe into the cold waters of tumblr. (Amusingly enough, when I tried to sign up I logged in instead - seems that I had already signed up, some unspecified time ago. *cough*) I expect I won't be doing anything very interesting over there, but who knows? Stranger things have happened.
Are you on tumblr? What blogs there are not to be missed? Tell me!
Also: Is this a medium where you read through your entire friendslist, as on LJ, or do you just glance at it from time to time with no attempt at completism, as on twitter?
In other news:setsuna_jiba has shared another brilliant advertising mishap with me. If your company is called locum, what would be a bad idea...? ( Maybe using a heart instead of the o? )

Jan. 12th, 2012 09:09 pmI have discovered the most hilariously bad ad know to man. It's for a portable x-ray device for dentists, and I don't even know where to start.
( You'll have to see it to believe it! )
We laughed about this all day at work. Certainly one way of grabbing people's attention! ;-)

Space, Pirates, Spies and Steampunk!
Jan. 10th, 2012 10:49 pmThe first "3 sentence" meme story fragments, which are considerably longer than 3 sentences in most cases, and are in order of striking inspiration. ;-)
Mulder and Krycek in space (forellensmithee)
( Sneaking onboard the Alliance flagship without being caught turned out to be surprisingly easy. )
Vetinari/Vimes pirate AU. (fordragonaph)
( There had never been a Pirate Admiral before, and Captain Vimes still wasn't sure how he felt about the idea. )
Dean/Krycek in a spy caper (forwithout_me)
( Dean knew he wasn't alone as soon as he eased open the window to the study. )
Abe no Seimei and an additional character in a steampunk world (fortorch)
( Hiromasa's stomach lurched as the zeppelin tilted sharply, drifting to the left as it hit an eddy in the ether. )
Stay tuned for more! I'm also still taking prompts, because I'm crazy that way. ;-)

3 Sentences AU Challenge Meme
Jan. 9th, 2012 11:01 pmI spotted this meme over at pashoshi's - quite some time ago, and have been debating whether or not to try it ever since. Now I'm thinking I will just throw caution to the wind and jump in at the deep end. *g*
The 3 Sentences AU Challenge!
Give me:
- A pairing/combination of characters
- An alternate universe
...and I will write you three sentencesor more if I feel like it.
Even though it's only three sentences, I know me, and so I know that inspiration will not come if it's a pairing I have no interest in (or, of course, if it's people / a fandom I simply don't know). Feel free to request whatever you want, but be aware that if you do happen to request a pairing of this kind - say, Sheppard/McKay or some such -, I will apologize and ask for an alternate prompt.
Prompt me, please! :-)

Sherlock 2x01, aka The Love Triangle
Jan. 3rd, 2012 11:04 pmSo I just watched Sherlock 2x01, ( and I have some spoilery rambly thoughts. )
And that's enough rambling out of me. :-) So what did you think?

X-Men: First Class – The Dilemma
Dec. 22nd, 2011 10:32 pmI've been reading X-Men: First Class slash lately. I'm a bit out of the loop, but it seems like this is the latest boom fandom, correct? And I have to say – yes. I get it. Very much so.
This fandom has many elements that are perfect for me. The relationship between Erik Lehnsherr and Charles Xavier could have been created just to hit my buttons.* The character Erik Lehnsherr – ditto. Plus, XM:FC reminds me of early Smallville with it's high fanfic output (including many wonderfully long stories) and the exceptionally high percentage of good writing.**
BUT.
I have still not watched the movie, and I think it would be a very bad idea for me to do so. ( Because I am pretty sure my reaction would be mixed at best. )
So, this is an odd situation. I am very interested in the fanfic. I would like to watch the canon the fanfic is based on. But I don't dare, for fear it would destroy my enjoyment of the fanfic.

Crack Ficlet: Trials of a Teenage Deity
Dec. 5th, 2011 03:36 pmTitle: Trials of a Teenage Deity
Author: Sylvia /rheasilvia
Pairing: Christ/Christ
Rating: PG-13
Note: This cracky ficlet is the result of a conversation I had withglitterburn about one of my pet peeves - that fannish authors will persist in using "mein Leib" as a translation for "my love". I feel like I should apologize. Uhm. Sorry?
Warning: Do not read if you are Christian and likely to be offended by irreverence.
( The worst part of incarnating was puberty. )
A note of explanation:
Though frequently used as the translation for "my love", "mein Leib" actually means "my body", and is part of the ritual words spoken during the Eucharist in Catholic Mass.
Incidentally, "mein Lieb" does not work as a translation of "my love", either.

Charm it with smiles and soap!*
Nov. 17th, 2011 04:15 pmBeware: many large soap pics lurk beneath the cut! I've been busy... and I've also been as name-impaired as always, so if you think of alternate names for these soaps, please do let me know. (I'm also happy about all other soapy remarks, of course, including suggestions for new soaps!)
( Take me to the soap! )
And that's it for the moment. More soaps are sure to follow in future, though. :-)
* But there will be no threatening of anyone's life with a railway-share on this journal!

Delay in posting Chapter 26 / LHTL
Nov. 15th, 2011 11:00 pmDue to circumstances beyond my control, I won't be able to post the next chapter of "Learning How to Lose" this Friday.
The options for alternate posting I've come up with are "as soon as possible" - which will mean Sunday at the earliest, or possibly Monday - and "the next possible Friday" - which will mean skipping a week and posting the next chapter on Friday the 25th. I'm assuming most readers will prefer the "ASAP" option, so that's what I'm going with by default.
However, if I'm wrong about what you would prefer, please do let me know.
Sorry about this!

The other day, I bought a selection of cookie cutters – and found myself confronted by a perplexing mystery. I can not tell what shape several of these enigmatic cutters want to lend my cookies.
All seems to be in order with these unpuzzling shapes:
( Cookie Cutters of Harmless Aspect )
The top one in this second pic is slightly more challenging, but after some thought, I take it to be a Nikolaus bearing a sack filled with presents, as Nikoläuse are wont to do. The lower one is more troubling, but it might be a sleigh. Possibly. I am open to other suggestions.
( Cookie Cutters of Mild Wonder )
But as for these last two dubious specimens…
( Cookie Cutters of Complete Confusion )
For the top one, my best bet would be an aardvark, or alternately - and perhaps more probably - an ankylosaurus who's lost his or her tail to a tyrannosaurus attack. (On reflection, this really does seem like the most likely option.)
The lower one, however… uhm. It's a shrew? Whose tail was tragically stepped on by abrontosaurus portly Nikolaus...? Uhm?
Help, Obi-Wan Friendslist! You're my only hope! What do you think?
* Alliteration for the win! ;-)
