comments and fav are LOVE.

Yes, my Death Knight is undead. That kinda goes with, you know, being a Death Knight. Yes, I know she's not a Forsaken. That doesn't make her any less dead. No, your character does not have the magical means to cure undeath and make her living again. I don't care if a lore character whose name I can't remember right now was successfully brought back from undeath, however it happened, your character cannot do it. If it were a feat that were easily performed, I suspect there would be a lot less walking corpses roaming around Azeroth right now.

Failing that, don't plead with me to change my character's story and make her a living DK "just for [you]". If I wanted to play a living character, I wouldn't have rolled a DK. Also, I don't care if you think it's a shame that she's not pretty. If that's what you're looking for, there are plenty of living/not-a-DK/really-a-high-elf types wandering around who'd fit the bill. Don't fixate on my character simply because she's the first one you came across.

Okay, Alice was wonderful! Seriously, I can't wait for the second part tonight. As we expected, Andrew was delightful as Hatter and nearly steals the show. Even according to the reviews I've read he's a star and makes the mini series work. I'm so proud of him! If you haven't seen Alice Part 1 yet, I do have it available for DL on RapidShare. Please let me know if you want the links, I'm happy to share :)

I'm screencapping Part 1 right now! By the way, Andrew was not listed under 'info' on the TV listing - but - he was listed for Nature Unleashed: Avalanche . . . first time someone has been able to search his name and find something!

Ideal is not scheduled on IFC this week; actually I've looked on the website and it's not showing it on at all through January 8th. I seriously hope it will come back and finish season 3 and continue with seasons 4 & 5. I'll keep you posted as I find more news.

--If you see I've missed any listing(s), please comment. Thanks :)

Hi! I'm Jessica from germany and this is my room...

( come in )

You know, I don't mean any ill, but the way Dumbledore is portrayed in lots of snarry fics does make me wonder. Now well, I can accept something like that when it's some kind of a future!fic, where Harry is an adult and comes back to Hogwarts as a teacher. But when the story is set during Harry's school years? I mean, the school Headmaster discovers that one of his teachers has been sleeping with one of his students. Do you honestly believe that cheering them on and proceeding to assist them in settling together as if the situation was perfectly okay would be the Headmaster's first reaction? Really?

I won't say that it can completely ruin the story for me, especially since it usually happens in the very end, but it sure can damage an otherwise good piece of writing.

Is it just me, or is the fanfiction.net Pride and Prejudice section lacking in quality fanfiction?
I used to read fics from places like Republic of Pemberley and Firthness.com, where the standards were so high. They were real Janeites who put a lot of research and effort into their epic multi-chapter fanfiction. It was brilliant save for the sparce updates.

But whenever I read fanfiction.net I struggled to find well written P&P fics. There are some, but they are bogged down by some real rubbish.

I blame Hollywood.
Most of the trash I find, I usually can tell within a few paragraphs whether the person has read the book, watched the BBC 1995 miniseries or the dumbed down 2005 film starring Keira Knightly.

For one thing things happen that would never have been possible in the time period and they talk in a more modern way. Also Darcy gets described as having blue eyes which automatically pulls me out of the story - for Darcy to me will always have dark intense eyes a la Colin Firth, but that is personal opinion.

Things like Darcy snogging Lizzy in a cupboard in Netherfield and not getting a slap for example, are not on. I mean, it is bad enough having Darcy out-of-character enough to do something so ungentlemanly (especially since it is the sort of thing Wickham would do) but to have Lizzy put up with it and not defend herself? It makes her out of character too.
Same fic also had Lizzy wear pyjamas to bed which is silly because even the men didn't wear pyjamas back then...

One of the worst problems is when a fic is riddled with "ok" and "alright" other modern phrases. Or it relies solely on a particular adaptation. Nothing worse than reading about Bingley barging into a lady's room, Lady Catherine visiting in the middle of the night while everyone is in the night attire or Darcy proposing in the rain instead of in the parsonage.

I try not to let my anti-P&P 2005 get in the way of reading the fanfics, but it was so different to the books and miniseries (which was much more faithful) that it is almost a different series, and should not be in the books section but in it's own separate movie section. Or at least have a rule where 2005 based stories must be clearly labeled...

Sorry for ranting, but I was so bitterly disappointed that the first P&P fanfic I have read in months let me down by ruining Darcy's character and sucking me out of the story completely. Apart from the cupboard-snogging, the 2005!Darcy, the OOCness and the pyjamas, it was well written. Not Darcyfic/Rep of Pemberley standard but no one-shot can be as good as those.

Hello, My fellow Arwen fans,

I have a confession to make: My birthday is on Saturday and thus I decided to make it an Arwen holiday--even if I am the only one who celebrates it.

To show my love for this wonderful couple, I have began making a vid. My last one, "I STILL BELIEVE IN LOVE" seemed to go over well, so I thought I would make a new one for my birthday. I haven't completely finished it yet, but here is the promo....


and for those who have forgotten my previous video, I have added it as well.


COMMENTS ARE LOVE!!! let me know if you have any requests of scenes or possible manipulated scenes... (I WOULD LOVE SOME IDEAS)

Even though I am new here, I am pretty sure that this has been ranted on before because of th level of stupid in it. But being caught in the middle of a shipping-war and thus having BOTH sides after me with pitchforks on regular basis, I just feel I needed to rant off my frustration...

So here goes:

Title: She Does Not Know
Author: logansrogue (Nancy Lorenz)
Rating: PG
Genre: One Shot, Arthur POV
Characters/Pairings: Arthur/Gwen
Spoilers: Season 2 Episodes
Disclaimer: The character depictions there-in belong to the BBC.
Summary: She does not know, nor have I told her, nor will I till I'm king...

Author’s notes: This is just a rough little one-shot that has been clanking around in my head for a while. Love-lorn Arthur has been singing sonnets to his lady and I, I had to write them down. Perhaps I'm a little taken with Gwen myself! She is very lovely! Perhaps this is a secret missive Arthur wrote when he couldn't sleep one night? I know the tone of the piece is pretty formal and Arthur rarely speaks like that in the show, but I can imagine him making this pact to himself one day. Hah, wouldn't it be awesome if Merlin found it? *chuckle* Anyway, here it is. Un-beta read, for I'm up to my ears in commissions and so forth. Warning - it's SAPPY and poetic. But I'm old-fashioned at heart.


( She does not know... )

- 51 BATTLESTAR GALACTICA ICONS (Mainly from Occupation & Precipice)
- 27 THE OFFICE ICONS (Season 6)

Title: These Boots Were Made for Walking (not)
Author: mauled_down
Fandom: Merlin
Pairing: Arthur/Merlin
Rating: NC17 (OK, probably a Hard R)
Disclaimer: I don’t own nothing apart from my perverted imagination. Even the laptop I wrote this with belongs to the good people of Mastercard.
Summary: Merlin doesn’t fancy Arthur and over-polishes his boots.
Warnings: Bad Humor. I mean really BAD. I don’t know what came over me.
A/N: This is for micolerose. I hope she approves.

“Merlin? If you shine those boots any further you might wear them out.”
