Past-Due Updates and a Meme

[heathershaped]

Just a few things, since, once again, I've not posted in awhile. *hides*

It has been bitterly, freeze-my-face-off cold outside this week. How dare it be cold in winter!! I was gettting used to unseasonably warm temperatures.

*frowns* I still can't write anything outside of RP, and it's starting to get on my nerves, because I have the time, I just...can't right now.

Smallville and Grey's Anatomy tonight, and previews look great for both. I can't fangirl Grey's anatomy enough, seriously.

I have a Tom Welling moodtheme now, have had it for a little while, but I'm lazy about posting, so there you are. Thanks thanks thanks to Melissa for installing it, as I couldn't get it right at first.
Note: I used Tom's 'bouncy' moodtheme, because I think it's adorable. Not really bouncy at all today, though. Been sort of weepy and down. I don't really know why.

Yay, for Stoatshead Hill . I never thought I'd end up playing three characters, but now I am. Say hello to my little friends:

         

Roger Davies             Luna Lovegood          Draco Malfoy

I love my fictional characters, and I love this game. *g*

And here's the rest of our gorgeous cast!

Hee. Lastly, I gacked this meme from kendas. It's great, and I've never done one like it before, so.

"One True Pairing" Ship: Harry/Hermione (with huge-ass Viktor/Hermione tendencies)

"One True Threesome" Ship: Harry/Hermione/Ron, with another huge-ass tendency towards Harry/Hermione/Viktor

"One True Slash" Ship: Remus/Sirius, all day long

"Canon" Ship: Viktor/Hermione, all day long

"Not quite canon but should be" ship: Remus/Sirius, Neville/Luna, Harry/Luna, Ron/Luna-- ok, so Luna's a bit of a slag in my canon. *snort*

"If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship: Ron/Hermione. *shrug* And yes, I'm prepared for the possibility, and will conveniently lose my sporks in July.

"You are one sick bastard" ship: Hah, going to have to say the house-elf fics, like kendas. just... no.

"I'm one sick bastard" ship: Er...I dunno, I read some Weasleycest for the first time a few days ago. I kinda liked it. *hides*

"I dabble a little" 'Ship: Blaise/Hermione. I read it if it's well-done... *cough* like when Inell, Kendas, or Kathryn write it*cough* But I generally get annoyed by the cliches of Sinfully-Alluring!Blaise, or supremely-unconcerned-with-the-fact-that-Hermione's-all-over-him!Blaise.

"It's like a car crash" Ship: Draco/Hermione.

"Tickles my fancy but not sold quite yet" 'Ship: Er...Snape/Remus. Problem is, there's just not much Snape out there that I can read.

"Makes no canon sense but why the hell not" 'Ship: Hermione/Weasleys, except Ron

"Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it" 'Ship: Draco/Hermione – I can't read it; too much redeemed-for-no-good-reason!Draco and "omg,I'mreallyapureblood"!Hermione. Also Harry/Ginny

"When all is said and done" 'Ship: Harry/Hermione

"Guilty Pleasure" ship: Hermione/Weasleys, except Ron.

"I can't believe I read it and liked it" ship: I usually get that way about Bellatrix or Voldemort fics. I'm surprised when I like those.

"Favourite "Older/Younger" ship: Remus/Hermione

"My first I could never abandon you" ship: Harry/Hermione...sensing a theme, hmm?

Favourite Devotionship: Remus/Sirius or Hermione/Harry

Favourite Nevermetship: Hermione/Tom I guess would kinda count as they’ve never met in canon.

Favourite Pervyship: Hermione/Weasleys, except Ron

Favourite DominanceBattleShip: Oh, I don't know, this could be fun with any ship, depending on circumstance.

And hi, to new LJ friends that I've picked up this week, and to everyone else on my f-list. *hugs you all*

I gacked your ship meme. :P I was uber bored. But I have to agree with you on the Draco/Hermione thing. I just don't get it!

[heather11483.livejournal.com]

Gack away! *g*

I had fun with it. And yeah... Draco/Hermione is just completely alternate universe. Just way too OOC for both of them. (just my opinion, of course.) I've seen it written well, like anything else, but there are so many Draco/Hermione cliches out there, and OMG, who can resist teh_good-girl/bad-boy cliche?

XD

[kendas.livejournal.com]

I have to admit I was surprised when you took on three characters too. Hee. but they are all lovely. I'm almost shipping Hermione/Roger, but Blaise get's huffy with me about it.

You have the most beautiful lay out hun. I just love the colours and the header.

But I generally get annoyed by the cliches of Sinfully-Alluring!Blaise, or supremely-unconcerned-with-the-fact-that-Hermione's-all-over-him!Blaise.

Isn't the ship meme fun?

There's only a few Blaise's I can read. You named two of them. Tamlane's is the third. I'm flattered that mine made a mention though. The problem with Blaise is that he is sinfully alluring. :P As a muse he's terribly difficult to break away from because he likes attention and tends to tempt you back. (Except my Blaise is all calm on the surface and a messed up wreck below that only Hermione, and Draco or Terry to a lesser extent, seem able to bring out).

Hense the fact that I spent this afternoon failing to write more of my Seamus/Hermione and instead working on a Draco/Hermione/Blaise. However, I still find myself with the same problem as you. This afternoon I had time to write, but I got out no more than 500 words. I used to be able to write 3000+ in a day no problem.

I fear Shh is stealing my muse.

And now I'm babbling. So I'll finish by saying it's nice to have you as part of my flist now.

[heather11483.livejournal.com]

A closet Roger/Hermione shipper...lol. *grin* Terry is glaring at Blaise, I'm sure. *g*

And thanks, on the layout. Every time I get the notion to change it, someone comments saying they like it. So I'm keeping it for awhile. *g*

And I've not read Tamlane's Blaise; must do that. (Your Blaise is love, btw.)

And I know!! SHH has my muse bound, gagged and in a corner. lol. But I love SHH, so it's okay. I just hope I can write something soon.

Great to have you on my f-list now, too, sweetie! *hugs*

[kendas.livejournal.com]

Meh. I think I'll ship Hermione anyone as long as the relationship is built up well and the characterisations good.

I think that's the problem with Draco/Hermione. I like the ship. Don't read it much now which is the same as Snape/Hermione and for problem the same reasons - the ships too big. I have a tendancy to run from popularity though mainly I think it's because you have to weed through so much crap to find the gems. I have a few authors in the pairings who I like when it comes to both ships and I tend to just stick to them. They never let me down.

Though that's true for most of what I read now. If I try someone new it's useually because of a reccomendation of someone I trust. I think a lack of time has made me an incredibly fussy but broad shipper.

And I've not read Tamlane's Blaise; must do that. (Your Blaise is love, btw.)

Oh you should do. She completely shaped how I saw Blaise both through her fics and conversations with her. My Blaise all all her and inell so I never feel like I should take much credit for him when people like him, though it still makes me blush when they do. Thank you.

[heather11483.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm the same way, really. If the characterisation is consistent and developed well, then it's generally a good story. I've fallen in love with fics I NEVER thought I would because of the ship, but the quality of writing and characterisations won me over.

And yeah, I rarely go looking randomly for fics anymore. I look for recs, primarily, and even then, only reccers that I trust. Even for my OTP, Harry/Hermione, I'll only read what gets rec'ed to me.

The title line of your journal has been bugging me all day - I feel stupid, and contagious. I finally just realised where it was from and had to head my desk for not getting it sooner.

And now I shall stop spamming your entry with inane mumblings.

[heather11483.livejournal.com]

LOL!

Yes, Nirvana, it is. *grin*

That was me trying to be original, and then just ending up picking a song title, anyway. bah. :p

[sweet-lemmon.livejournal.com]

Gacked the meme. So cool...’Don’t like Hermione/Draco very much either.

Oh! And OH. MY. GOD...your Draco is hot! And I don’t even like blondes!

^_^

[heather11483.livejournal.com]

Hee! I don't like blondes either, but he is very pretty, isn't he? sigh. (totaljerk, though, you've no idea. *grin*)

[jazmine84.livejournal.com]

GREY'S ANATOMEHHH!!!! WOOOO-HOOOO!!! XD

*hugs you back*

[heather11483.livejournal.com]

*clings*

YYYYYES!!!!

I can't wait. Seriously. :p

*uses Meredith!Tequila icon* XD

[adamolupin.livejournal.com]

*GLOMPS* Yes, SHH has stolen my muse as well. *sigh* Not that I really had a muse or if I did, she would attack me with a mace then while I was left bleeding and broken on the floor she's abandon me. Hmm . . . maybe it's a good thing SHH has stolen her. :P

And now that Andy's gone all emo I'm tempted to write *gasp* angst H/Hr! >< Still no plot, just an urge to write it. Curse you, Andromeda! *shakes fist*

[heather11483.livejournal.com]

*glomps back* And your icon is adorable.

LOL!!! *shakes head at Angsty!Andy*

Roger always, makes me want to write angst. Draco just makes me kinda bitchy. :p

[annearchy.livejournal.com]

Good meme, though I probably won't do it due to extreme laziness :P

I'm like you with the writing. NOTHING except RPing is happening for me. I might as well take all my stories down from PK etc. Nothing's likely to happen either. *shrugs* Don't really care these days. I'm having fun RPing, whereas fan fic had become a chore. RPing, though, is like crack, is it not?? And I'm shocked I took on a second character. I'd really struggled to stay down to one, and I failed :))

You and I need to do some plottage on YM. That single RP wasn't nearly enough :D

[heather11483.livejournal.com]

Haha! *pets the lazy one*

RPing IS like crack, it's crazy. I never thought I'd love it so completely when I joined up? But now? I'm refreshing SHH at work like a fiend. :p It's nuts.

And yes!!! Plottage would be lovely, I'm jonesing for another RP with you. XD We'll chat; I'm on tonight.

[idea-of-sarcasm.livejournal.com]

Hmm, because ym isn't enough.

Meme's are fun -- although I'm not going to do it (hee). Ron/Hermione typically equals a 'spork' for me as well. Except in a few rare exceptions. And even then I just assume it will end once the fic ends :D

And house-elf fics are incredibly disturbing - although not quite as disturbing as the 'comm which shall not be named' that I found last night, but they are close. Although you've obviously not realized fic with the giant squid exist out there - at least I hope not.

I feel your pain - you've heard about my pain. At least SHH is benefiting from your three characters.

And, yay!!! for Grey's. Less than an hour and half for me *grin*

[heather11483.livejournal.com]

No, it's NOT enough. I see you online. Like, right now. And I'm replying to this, anyway. :p

HAHA. You're another lazy one like one of my buddies above. Honestly, if I'd been here instead of at work I'd not have done it either. I only meme whilst bored at work. But it was fun!

And thank you, for rubbing in the fact that I have TWO HOURS to wait for Grey's. -_-

xD *uses random Jack icon*

[awaywithpixie.livejournal.com]

hehehe on the cold. Well, not really.

*sends some warmth your way*

[heather11483.livejournal.com]

*snatches warmth and snuggles it*

[acoustics1220.livejournal.com]

- don't forget the prompt!

you can even steal the icon for it, too. Lol.

*hint hint*


...


*nudge*

*hugs heather*

(is still sorry)

[heather11483.livejournal.com]

Honey, it's fine! *hugs you*

and haha. I'll make use of that prompt-- eventually. Roger wants me to. *g*
