Which Potterverse OC Are You?
brought to you by Quizilla
Despite my girly goddess name, I'm a strong sensitive Muggle guy with a (broken) heart of gold. My son's dating a werewolf, and I'm 100% supportive! *skips off singing "Sirius and Remus, sitting in a tree..."*
My unmentioned secret: Most everything in that book was news to me too.
Likely fate: Continued stoic endurance under extreme stress, relieved by fascinating new hobby of writing Martin Miggs slash.
Drawing Down the Moon by Ailei and Khirsah [SB/RL, NC-17, WiP]

I'm posting this so I remember to read the fic next time I'm just looking for HP-related slash.

Dec. 28th, 2002 09:19 pmRhiannonhero's screenname meme... Years ago, I signed up for a hotmail email account, and being a very worldly and mature 15 thought that "out_there" sounded cool. That was my reason for picking it. As I am sometimes known for having the memory of a goldfish, I kept both the password and login name for all future things. *g*
Apart from TWoP, even when I used out_there, I still signed stuff as "Annie!" (the exclaimation mark has since been dropped!), so we know privacy isn't such a big thing to me...
It's occuring to me that I'm backing away from SV fandom. Hmmm... Maybe not the fandom per se, I still love the Clex, I'm just sick of the fan community. I don't want to be spoiled about next season and I won't be seeing the next season for months to come. It comes down to the basic fact that I'd like to see SV without knowing the major plot points in advance, and it's pretty hard to avoid spoilers. Let's admit it, I know who Desiree is, even though I have avoided recaps and any specifically spoilerish fics. It's just been mentioned. It's in the hive mind.
If you look back a year ago, I was head over heels in love with everything SV. Got completely hooked by Te's fic, and started daily checking Te's and Jenn's blogs (although everybody seems to be using LJ these days!) and reading every SV rec I found. Also regularly checked in on Wendi, Hope and many others linked from Te's blog. These days, I couldn't be bothered. It's actually an effort to check up on my favourite SV authors, because I know, without a doubt, that people are going to reflect S2 in their fic. Fair enough for them, but as stated above, I'm trying not to be too spoiled.
Although, I'm also wondering if it's just me. Really, I don't nurture long-term friendships. Attending nine schools over thirteen years of schooling does teach you that friends come and go, and that making new friends just requires effort. It's also a case of getting bored. I go hell for leather over a new fad, get bored of it, and want something else.
Or, it could just be the heat making me cranky...

Dec. 28th, 2002 10:30 pmMissed the first episode of Farscape. (Thought it started at 9.30.) Am not impressed.
Also, did anyone else find themselves going "when the hell did that happen?!" when watching it on Saturday. I mean, Crace, Talon and Stark were back, Aeryn was (believed to be) dead and Dargo's son?! Yeesh...

I reserve the right to change my mind...
Dec. 28th, 2002 11:34 pmRead Smoke and Mirrors. It's an order. ^.~
This is the strained relationship that I see between Lex and Lionel. This is what I mean about it being caused by both of them. *Points to fic* This is what I mean, I just can't articulate it.
I'm head over heels in love with this piece. I'm off to read it again. After that, I think I'll wander off and see if I can make a good cover for it...
