open letters to comica_obscura

First, to my comica_obscura assignment, even though you will likely never read this: Thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you for the best requests I've ever received in a ficathon, and I've had some good ones. There is practically no way I could be happier with what you requested, and I just hope I can make the story work as well as the request. Thank you so much. I opened my email today and even though I'm dizzy and cramping and not wanting to be at work because of it, the day is suddenly bright and wonderful because I'm so excited about the story.

Second, to my comica_obscura writer, if you've come to take a look at my journal and my writing to see what I like, thank you for writing for me. I'm going to love it, I'm sure, I always love stories for me. If you want to take a look at my writing, I'd suggest sticking to the memories feature on livejournal (they are labeled FIC [fandom]) because the website is in the process of being taken down and rebuilt, so you're likely to run into a lot of missing pages there. (I'm not the only one who goes to read her assignment's fiction, am I? To get a feel for the style he or she likes?)

I love Ultimate Colossus more than any comic book character ever, which is saying a lot. I particularly like him half in love with Wolverine but not sure how to handle it or what to do about it, but I also like more recent events and I'm starting to love the idea of Colossus and Northstar. I like him a little angsty (metal angst!) and a lot wonderful.

Alan Quartermaine and gun is what some would call an OTP around here. There is absolutely no wrong with a gen story about him and his history and his guns.

Werewolves make me happy. Shapeshifters make me happy. Therefore Bigby Wolf makes me happy. I'm a little behind on Fables, but by the time stories are posted, I plan to be caught up, so anything can go with this, really, and I'd love you forever if you tied in other werewolves or werewolf legends.

I really can't wait to read whatever you write for me.





Oh crap, so dizzy. I think maybe it was the pain killer.

television

Based on swmbo's television post.

Jericho - This is apparently about a small town in Kansas after a series of nuclear attacks destroys most big cities. Do you know what this means? thestalkycop has probably already guessed, and cabell knows, I'm sure, it means POST-APOCALYPTICAL, BABY. I will give this a chance just because of the post-apocalyptical aspect.

(Dude, I miss the girl so much. Why isn't she here to share my squee?)

Ultra - Is this based on Ultraviolet? Because woman superhero could be cool, but I'd like to know the source first.

The Way - New England family uses witchcraft to create a successful business. Without watching either of the other shows, just from fandom experience, I'd say it was Charmed meets Arrested Development with a lot of drugs, but who knows.

I have cramps and the painkillers I took made me ill. Fun times. Except I think they are finally sort of worn off. I missed kickboxing because of them. I came home from work early because of them. Damn. However, I will still have overtime this week, as always. Plus I am going to try to go to the gym in the morning. I'd better get to sleep soon.

The fandom drugs thing cracked me up; I am easily amused.

I was so dizzy earlier it started to slide into true vertigo. I haven't had a bad spell in awhile, and it was very frustrating and a little scary to go through it alone this time. Not that I haven't gone through it alone before, but still. I'd rather be dizzy than have a vertigo spell. Nasty.

I miss the girl. But I said that already.
