Yet I'm Still Neither Copperbadge Not Kant

[laeria]

At last, my semester's over!


3 things I am enjoying at the moment:

1. Ladyfest- it is mostly winding down now, but has produced truly marvellous works of fiction. Allow me to link some for posterity:

we laugh indoors (Bible (sort-of), Lilith)
experiment (Scooby-Doo, Velma)

That Cloying, Creeper Feeling (XKCD, Megan)
poppies stretch for days (The Wizard of Oz + zombies, Dorothy)

Idle Playthings: From the Devil's Mind (Simpsons, Maggie and Ling)
as the multitudes exalt (Road to El Dorado, Chel)

on the nature of hatred and its uses (HP, Hermione)

There's also myriads of Who-fic, genderbent Romeo and Juliet (including girl!Mercutio, mmm), Faulknerfic, Kleypasfic and two Narnia-Supernatural fusions. Also worth revisiting for the quality of prompts alone (mostly lyrics, wonderful wonderful lyrics).

2. Reccing, apparently! Ergo, while the reccin's good:

glitter and broken bones (DC Comics, Jason Todd), written for the Transfic Mini Fest- I am completely unfamiliar with the canon, and yet, holy wow.
 

3. The buzzy afterglow of Doctor Who. I didn't enjoy it as much as I did the previous four seasons (I passionately abhor certain aspects of Moffat's writing), but it contained the probably-best episode ever (Vincent and the Doctor) and a fair bit of goofy dancing and fezes, and somewhat less marriage and pregnancy than I expected, so, overall, I'm fairly happy.


3 things I've learned this year:

1. The Importance of Being Earnest IS as good as people said. (Cecily/Gwendolen fic, please and thank you. And OT4, please, and also I sort of really loved Aunt Augusta.)
2. I am still not equipped to post Serious Opinions on the internet, but I'm slowly, sort of, getting there.
3. Matt Smith does bitchin' interrogation scenes. (But other than that, worst two-parter ever.)

3 things I am looking forward to:

1. kink_bingo - I've my card, and I've half-written three stories, and they're actually collinear, although I've this hazy plan to do a blackout. I confess myself skeptical though.
2. Sunbathing and staying well out of prison.
3. Buffy the Vampire Slayer: clearly I must watch, if only for the glorious peroxide love-bitch.
