The Semi-Annual delurking/tell Doyle things/help me procrastinate, bitches Post

Anybody feel like delurking? Or pretending to lurk so you can delurk and comment?


I would like to know any of the following: (unnumbered since I don't expect people to answer them all)
- what's the last movie you saw that you really loved or really hated?
- is there a fic/pairing/scenario/cracked out AU, in any fandom or crossover, that plainly needs to be written but so far hasn't, to your great distress?
- show off your favourite icon.
- what's your favourite season finale of any show ever? Feel free to spoil me.
- if there's a TV/movie/book moment that just gets to you, whether to make you bawl your eyes out or fall about laughing, tell me about it. (*) (Note that this is a footnote mark, not a single pierced nipple boobicon.)
- confess your deep fandom shame. It's good for the soul.
- what upcoming movie/TV show/book/comic/whatever are you excited about? (I think we'll take Serenity as a given...)
- who's the best character in The Simpsons? This would be a poll if I weren't lazy. (It's Reverend Lovejoy, of coure, but I would also accept Sideshow Mel or the gestalt entity Carl-and-Lenny.)
- obscure character love yay! Who needs the love, in any fandom?
- and speaking of obscure, tell me what rare fandoms you have, or what you'd like to see good fic for.

(*) My emotionally crippling moments: I mentioned this when miggy did her meme a few weeks back, but the Simpsons episode Lisa's Substitute tears me up every single time. Argh, the note, "this is everything you need to know" and it just says "you are Lisa Simpson." I have to watch that episode every time it's on TV. I own it on DVD, I've seen it maybe 30 times, but if it's on TV I'm compelled to sit and watch for that one moment.

And don't get me started on Lilo and Stitch, because then my rampant immaturity will be out there for all the world to see.

ETA: I'm off to bed so if you don't get an immediate response, remember your hitchhiker's guide advice and don't panic. I'll be answering these tomorrow. But keep your towel on standby just in case.

- what's the last movie you saw that you really loved or really hated?

I just re-watched the X-Files movie and adored it, despite the lack of a certain Russian double agent.

- is there a fic/pairing/scenario/cracked out AU, in any fandom or crossover, that plainly needs to be written but so far hasn't, to your great distress?

Veronica Mars fandom. Veronica needs to hook up with the skeevy Sheriff Don Lamb, and it needs to be both pr0ny and in character. I can't seem to write both, and neither can anyone else, yet.

- show off your favourite icon.

Veronica/Lamb, of course.

- what's your favourite season finale of any show ever? Feel free to spoil me.

Babylon 5. Season 4. Deconstruction of Falling Stars. It's got a bunch of flash-forwards to a hundred, a thousand, a million years after the run of the series. Very cool.

- if there's a TV/movie/book moment that just gets to you, whether to make you bawl your eyes out or fall about laughing, tell me about it.

Babylon 5, just about any of Delenn's speeches. She starts talking about being the universe, about being star-stuff, or about how life is her mission and if she dies alone in the dark having saved one person, that's enough... *sobs*

- confess your deep fandom shame. It's good for the soul.

I just recently read ridicuously OOC Mulder/Krycek AU fic, and it was so very NC-17 that I read chapter after chapter despite rolling my eyes at the improbability.

- what upcoming movie/TV show/book/comic/whatever are you excited about? (I think we'll take Serenity as a given...)

George R. R. Martin's "A Feast of Crows" and Veronica Mars Season 2.

- who's the best character in The Simpsons? This would be a poll if I weren't lazy. (It's Reverend Lovejoy, of coure, but I would also accept Sideshow Mel or the gestalt entity Carl-and-Lenny.)

Mr. Burns! He's completely self-interested. :)

- obscure character love yay! Who needs the love, in any fandom?

Veronica Mars: Vice Principal Van Clemmons. Dude. I wrote the only fic starring him. This is really sad! He needs much more love.

- and speaking of obscure, tell me what rare fandoms you have, or what you'd like to see good fic for.

I'd adore fic for Melanie Rawn's "Exiles" series.

Oh, you have no idea how much OOC M/K I read as a teenager. Seven years on I still remember one where they were SO IN LOVE OMG and were living together on some tropical island and had a housekeeper who loved them both like sons, and I think there was a scene in a restaurant where one of them was in a cockring.

Yes.

*goes to find OOC M/K*

I've seen that! I've only seen 4 or 5 episodes of that series total, but I've seen that one. Even watched in isolation without knowing most of the canon, I loved it.
