out_there: B-Day Present '05 (Josh and Sam Teamwork)
[personal profile] out_there
As a child, I had arachibutyrophobia*. I never knew there was a word for it. Now, I'm just wondering how you say it. [livejournal.com profile] oxoniensis could probably help with that one.

*points at [livejournal.com profile] isagel's Not Less Than Everything* Poetic smut. I love the way that writers can have fun with language, twisting and stetching it into their meaning. Go, read, enjoy.

I'm going to follow [livejournal.com profile] oxoniensis's example regarding offering fic for friends. Since I've been too lazy to write anything for ages (not even W100 drabbles), and I have a couple of ideas that I'm just not enthused enough to actually start, we'll try something new. If you want me to write a fic to your specifications, leave a comment and I'll do my best. It'll probably be a short fic, but go ahead and challenge me. If I know the fandom, I'll give it a shot (BtVS, AtS, WW, SV, FY, a little HP, etc) or if I don't know it, I'll let you know. Deal?

*A fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of one's mouth.

*repeats to self* Hmmm... it's not something that rolls off the tongue, is it? I mean, it's less impressive, and harder to say, than antidisestablishmentarianism.

*bg* Who says that innane words learnt in highschool don't come in handy? From memory, it was introduced to me as the longest non-medical word in the English language. Mind you, I don't know if that's ture, I never checked, but it's still fun to say.

And, in my own defense, I was like... tiny when I had that fear. I think 6, but it could have been younger. I'm surprised that enough people have it to have our own word, though.
