[nb: some of the prompts are somewhat shippy, so you might want to be careful about who you put on your list as characters may end up in combination. That said, there is no incest in my ficlets.]

Also, I remembered two other major fannish accomplishments from my exceptionally long haitus: I read A Song of Ice and Fire (and realized I'd been calling it "Song of Fire and Ice" for something like three years. Whoops.) And I read most Robin Hobb's Realm of the Elderings (Farseer, Liveship Traders, and Tawny Man; I think I'll leave the Rain Wilds until the series is complete). I bet you'll never guess who my favorite character is?!

I have a long and busy week ahead of me, as usual, and I wish I could think of something exciting to post that all y'all could discuss all week, but really I can't think of anything exciting to say.

Random Firefly recs (because I actually read fic last night for the first time in ages and ages.)

Where Circles Begin by liviapenn. Mal/Zoe/Wash. Excellent voices and excellent Zoe; I like the long buildup and Zoe/Wash's banter.


Tending to Grace by musesfool. Simon/River. Lovely and awesome and incest exactly the way I think it should be.

& now I don't have time to do anything exciting.

So I should be getting a couple of secret_santa assignments in my inbox this week. Awesome. Or else, terrifying.

[Cameron, Ann/Paula, Caleb, Mac, Joss, tWW support staff (spoiler-free, Elizabeth), River.]

( these were a lot of fun )

And one for me:
Five elements that would be present in My Ideal TV Show:
1. Written by Joss.
2. Featuring Allison Janney.
3. About gifted teenagers.
4. Set in an apocalyptic future, or possibly in space (OR BOTH).
5. People are very good at their jobs, except when they become too emotionally invested, and then people die.


I'd love to hear your answers to that last one! (For your own ideal TV shows. Obviously. ALthough if you wanted to point out something obvious I've missed for mine, that would be okay too.)

And with that, I'm off! See you on Thursday! (NGIP)
