a mix of sadface-a da panda and jawsome!

1. RIP Captain Phil We'll all miss you. :(

2. OMG THE END OF SEASON THREE OF DEXTER WAS WORTH ALL THE CRAP. So uh, if a girl wanted to get ahold of Season 4, who might she have to blow to do that? OH MY GOD LUNDY!

3. The RPS poll is closed, and the end results are:

RPF COMMENT FIC CARNIVALE—March 6-7, 2010
Anon and de-anon stories welcome.
Prompts: trailer time, wrap party, a song and a dance

4. I might have done a bad bad thing last night, and plotted a fanfic. It involves a dead faerie prince, a mourning mother, a diplomatic liaison to the sidhe, a never ending snowfall, Torchwood climbing Snowden, and Suzie with some enchanted apples. And some funny funny references to Jack and Tam Lin. And it's not a party unless you quote Shakespeare at least twice. You know. Hah.

I just had to get that put there. Not doing the darkfest, not doing reel tw. DOING THIS. (AND JESUS PLEASE, DON'T OFFER ME ANY INFORMATION ABOUT: FAERIES, ELVES, TAM LIN, OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE WRITTEN ANY OF IT--I HATED GAIMAN'S VERSIONS, BTW--WELSH MYTHOLOGY, THE COMPLEXITIES OF ANY OF IT, ETC ETC ETC. This is precisely what I mean when I say that I DON'T CARE. It's like writing a vampire story and then having a "vampire expert" come in and tell you you're doin' it wrong, and it's really really frustrating and styming. If I need/want help, I will ask. Thanks guys.)

5. askance, man, it's like 8k and it's…half done? Blue saw the first part. :D

6. It looks as if Chinese New Year is being cancelled at Chinghaus for the first time since we started it, which blows mightily. We'll have to move to a restaurant and have them feed us. Suck factor: high. Upside: I won't have to clear my table. On the other hand, the window of possibility that arsenicjade will make it here from Illinois is looking slimmer and slimmer. :(

7. FIC SOON. AWWWW SHIT.

Blow me. Well. I could get you d/l links anyway.

Your fanfic sounds like awesome in ... funny fairy tale ways.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

W have a mild formatting issue that is going to slow us down. I'll get to that later.

haaahahah dl me.

Also, it's an awesome fic, and involves Owen turning to a tree.

[villeinage.livejournal.com]

Can I request a copy of links too? I saw amand_r's request for dl links and was all OOO! Because I've just about given up.

[laurab1.livejournal.com]

I'll finish up your thing, then, now the poll's closed :)

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

YAY! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[taffimai.livejournal.com]

Has cruentum provided you with Dexter, or do you still need it?

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

:) I AM IN LIKE FLYNN.

[blue-fjords.livejournal.com]

askance -- it is a beautiful thing! Trust me. :)

Oooh, I &hearts fairy tales! Score.

Sorry about the CNY snowpocalypse disaster! That sucks donkey balls. I hope you can still get leftovers from the restaurant.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

Well, it's not going to be a fairy take. I actually think all of this stuff is generally boring (I did an hour of research about caer siddi and queen mab and the mabingion last night and almost fell asleep right there), so think of it as...dark modern fantasy. :D

[alba17.livejournal.com]

I've never written RPS or had any interest in writing it, but I actually have an idea. :) Good to know the dates. Oh, wait, it has specific prompt topics, right? I hope my idea fits in with one of those. Intriguing fairy tale-ish fic idea.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

haaahahah YES. COME TO THE DARK SIDE.

ASnd you can post anon if you like!

[cruentum.livejournal.com]

The prompts are listed in Mandr's post there actually:

trailer time
wrap party
a song and a dance

[madder-rose.livejournal.com]

There ain't no viagra on that thar prompts list! Mayhap Anon can squeeze it ito the wrap party during one of her prolific bouts of writing...

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

You're going to have to do that, because it got one of the lowest vote counts! EVEN STEAK BEAT VIAGRA! LAWL.

You know that is EXACTLY what Stephenie Meyer wrote on her blog.

Bummer about CNY. :\

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

SHUT UP.

Look, I hate her writing, but Smeyer is allowed to interpret the vampire mythos however she likes. See Dracula 2000.

[neifile7.livejournal.com]

CARNEVALE....whut, no steak prompt? Have peeps no notion of tradition?

Eh, it's all good, anyway. Nice, sweeping prompts, the better to gather the (dust) bunnies.

But u guise r posting some Thing b4 that, y/y?

[neifile7.livejournal.com]

Ha. I hit send, and voilà, it Appears By Magic.

[phaetonschariot.livejournal.com]

PS: Vampires don't sparkle.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

They do in Smeyer's universe, and to a lesser extent in the Rice-lore.

Hey, I may not like Smeyer, but she can do it if she wants to.

FAERIES, ELVES, TAM LIN,SHAKESPEARE, JACK, & TORCHWOOD ALL IN A STORY FROM YOU? DUDE, I'LL BE ON STANDBY IF YOU DO WANT HELP WITH ANYTHING, BUT SERIOUSLY (DAMN YOU HAVING ME CAPS LOCKING AGAIN) I JUST WANT TO READ THE CRACK!

And yay for comment fic! and THANK GOD WRAP PARTY IS ONE OF THE OPTIONS BECAUSE i ALREADY WROTE THE DAMN THING AND ITS ALL YOUR FAULT - JUST LIKE THESE INSANE CAPS.

phew, there, thats better, normal kat speak.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

SERIOUSLY, YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO SAY THINGS LIKE,

1. THIS REMINDS ME OF x BOOK BY X AUTHOR.
2. YOU KNOW IN THE REAL VERSION OF X FROM 38392 BC, THEY ACTUALLY BLAH BLAH.

I WILL WEEP.

It's a really simple story. It's just going to take some work.

[sthayashi.livejournal.com]

If you know how to play mkv files, I could be a faster hookup :-)

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

I have a hook up. :D

[topgeargirl2.livejournal.com]

Cool, I'm looking forward to the RPF battle. A song and a dance sounds like an awesome prompt.

Yeah I need to make a list of fics I want to write so I stick to them.

I'm going to read Nick and Your RPF tomorrow since right now I've had a long day, visiting the Adelaide Zoo and I'm very tired. So yeah I will read it.
