Auf dem Zaun

Look what I got at Daily Drabble's Wichteln!! Morgana & Arthur sibling fic! (Is that a word, sibling fic?) Isn't it wonderful?

I'm not yet ready to write real posts again, just wanted to wish you all happy holidays - the light is coming back!

Later tonight I'm planning to get involved in some major Yuletide Madness. I have a list of requests I could write something for, and half a fic written.
Is anyone coming to join me, in schreibwut (on aim) maybe?

Ah, and I just bred a mint egg with the code gDU1. Geh Du Eins? Does have a certain charm, doesn't it?
Is there anyone who would like to adopt it?
(shiun, this egg and its sibling were the result of my most recent attempt at breeding a silver for you. It seems you'll have to wait for this Christmas present a bit longer, but eventually I will succeed!)

Aufs Risiko hin, daß meine Flist mich zerfleischen mit Konfetti of Squee kaputtschmeißen wird - so fesselnd Merlin 1.10 gewesen ist, und unglaublich wunderbar an manchen Stellen, ich hab mich trotzdem ein bißchen geärgert.
( Nämlich... )

[Crosspost vom LJ; ich habe keine Ahnung, ob sich deutsche Comms auf IJ überhuapt lohnen.]

... eine deutschsprachige Merlin-Comm? So riesig, wie das Fandom der Serie nach fünf Folgen schon ist, müßte sich das lohnen.

Falls nicht, jemand sollte eine gründen, und jemand sollte die Eröffnungsfic schreiben.
Dann traue ich mich vielleicht auch an Fic, denn eine Menge (plotlose) Ideen hab ich schon, mein Hirn mag sich aber nicht zwischen englisch und deutsch entscheiden, und auf englisch klappt es nicht.

Ahem...

Wenn ich euch mit den Dingern in Ruh lassen soll, sagt es, ok?

Now, you won't be seeing a lot of me for about a week. I'm going to my cousin's wedding tomorrow, then I'll be in S. for a short time, without my computer, which will be quite the experiment. But it doesn't make much sense to carry around a laptop without a functioning monitor.
Tell me if something important happens. Tell me if someone writes good Merlin fic. Email and comments should reach me.

Unrelated, #1: I dreamt that I was Wolverine, but I lived in my flat, and a girl who claimed to live in the the flat below mine wanted me to sign a form that said I wouldn't play loud music anymore. Wolverine was very confused. Then he got a distress call, and he ran to the playground where Nick Fury, Black Widow and some others were under attack. He jumped elegantly over the playground wall and saved Nick Fury's life. It was kind of romantic. Then we ran away from the playground and everything exploded around us. Adventure!

Unrelated, #2: Yesterday I was depressed due to hormones, so I wrote something to make me feel better. It was supposed to have three sentences. Uhm. I'm posting it because it made me happy and I think it might work for shiun, too, but it's not really anything. It also has ( Spoilers for Merlin ep. 1, and an smiling in overdose. )

Have a good week, will you? :)

I'm way to tired to write an even remotely reasonable entry, but my dragons grew up and I have two new eggs that need views. So I'll have to talk about something in order to conceal the true purpose of this post.

The best choice of things to talk about would of course be Merlin, not only because it is so very brilliant, but also because I need proof that I've been there at the early days of the fandom. If I don't contribute, how will I be able to say "I started watching Merlin shortly after the third episode aired for the first time", showing off in front of the hundreds of young newcomers who are going to search for fic in five years time? You know, like me. I always come late to fandoms, SJA and Merlin are notable exceptions.

Everyone already talked about this. And my brain doesn't work so well just now because it wants sleep. So, just one thing.

I'm pretty sure the series has a lot more than teh mega slash potential.
As you know, I like slash, but I'm not a real slasher, being equally interested in het, femslash, polyfic and sometimes even in non-shippy stuff if it's good.
When I decide whether I really like a TV or comics series, these days I seem to be all about the teams - the 'main cast' and the chemistry between them, plus the location where it all takes place. Both is brilliant here; all the characters rock. Camelot and the whole (fanfic!)legendary scenario draws me in.
This might also have to do with my other fandoms at the moment, most of which seem to include Excalibur, Great Britain or at least fairies. And yes, of course there are lots of crossovers in my head.

The only thing on TV that is as great as Merlin is The Sarah Jane Adventures. It is so wonderful, I have no words. (I'm so in love with Sarah Jane.) If you like one of these series, you should watch the other. They have the same strenghts and so far none of the weaknesses most other TV programmes show.
I am proud to say:

MY FANDOMS CAN APOLOGIZE WHEN THEY DID SOMETHING MEAN. MY FANDOMS CAN SAY THANK YOU WHEN THEIR FRIENDS SAVED THEIR LIVES. MY FANDOMS CAN MAKE THEIR FANS HAPPY.

Now, dragons.

I adopted the green egg; the orange one is Fyr and Sajasi's child.
