Also: Ask me my top 5 [whatever] of 2013 (on tumblr or here, whatever). Because I'm procrastinating and it seems fun!

Happy birthday to [livejournal.com profile] slowmercury, I hope you had a great day :D

My own birthday extended birthday weekend ended up being pretty awesome; we went on a winery tour and to the zoo and I ended up getting a fancy coffee maker after all that makes super delicious lattes, plus I brought home way too much wine and cider with me, so it's all good.

Happy birthday [livejournal.com profile] summerstorm and [livejournal.com profile] gigglemonster!

Basically everything Marvel's doing right now is making me very, very excited. First they announced the new Ms Marvel title, in which the titular character is Kamala Khan, a Muslim teenager inspired by Captain Marvel to become a superhero. I love everything about that sentence. Carol Corps! More teenage girl superheroes who are heroes because they want to be, thank you very much. (Just keep Captain America away from her.)

And then they announced they'll be making four Netflix series focusing on Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Danny Rand, and Matt Murdock, followed by a Defenders miniseries. LUKE CAGE. JESSICA JONES!!!! <3 <3 A Jessica Jones series is basically my dream, pretty much second only to She Hulk: Single Female Lawyer. Which, can we make that happen now, please? I mean, if you really want David E. Kelley to make superhero shows, it makes a hell of a lot more sense than Wonder Woman.

Plus there are a bunch of new ongoing series I'm really looking forward to - She-Hulk! Black Widow! New Captain Marvel! FOUR FOR YOU, MARVEL. YOU GO, MARVEL.

In related news, I wrote a thing for [livejournal.com profile] rarecharacters:

Happy birthday to [livejournal.com profile] areasontofight and [livejournal.com profile] soobunny (and to [livejournal.com profile] care_says, [livejournal.com profile] rogueslayer452, and [personal profile] metaphasia, whose birthdays I missed last week).

Okay, I definitely signed up for too many holiday exchanges, but I'm coping. [livejournal.com profile] rarecharacters fics should be up any day now (they had some last-minute pinch hits, which I totally understand, since I'm pretty sure my writer and recipient both defaulted, but oh well. I really like the fic I wrote, anyway). Also, I've already started on my [livejournal.com profile] festivids assignment, which should hopefully come along without too many problems, so yay!

Now I just need to finish the million and one fics I've committed to, and I'll be all good ;)

ETA: RARECHARACTERS FICS ARE UP AND SOMEBODY WROTE ME AVALON HIGH FIC, THIS IS NOT A DRILL IT ACTUALLY HAPPENED, SOMEONE OTHER THAN ME WATCHED THAT MOVIE AND WROTE A FIC AND THEN GAVE IT TO ME, THIS IS FULL OF AMAZING. It's twelve days of tmi by mystery author, who if I am not already friends with I SHOULD BE BECAUSE AVALON HIGH!!! <3 <3

Dear festividder,

Thank you so much for making a vid for me! I love vids! And I love these fandoms, and I am already 100% guaranteed to love a vid in any of these fandoms.

General vid things I love: Ensemble vids. Character studies. Fun shippy vids. Vids that highlight some of my favourite things about the source. Vids that point out something I never noticed in the source. Vids that give me chills. Vids that make me cry. Vids that make me laugh. Vids that make me clap my hands in glee. Vids that use music I love, and music that's completely new to me, and music that obviously goes with that source, and that I never would have through to pair with the source but works surprisingly well. Basically, I just really love vids.

In case you'd like more information, my requests are under the cut, along with a few more details.

Yeah, I can't explain what movies are )

I finally got up to Midway in my rewatch of Stargate Atlantis, and I forgot how much the whole Ronon=Teal'c parallel bugged me. So I ended up doing this instead of paying attention? ALL THE WAYS RONON AND TEAL'C ARE SUPER SIMILAR CHARACTERS: A LIST COMPARATIVE TABLE. (With bonus comparisons just for fun.)

In a galaxy far, far away )

OMG SO SIMILAR YOU GUYS, IT'S THE MOST OBVIOUS PARALLEL TO DRAW.

Also did you know the season five DVDs (at least my region 4 ones) misspell Ronon's name as Ronan? TRUE STORY. Official packaging, y'all.

OMGWTF YULETIDE. But signups are open now, so hopefully we're through the worst of it. And Gwen Stacy I'm sorry, Clone Gwen Stacy made it in in the end, which I didn't actually expect to happen? So now I really want to request Ultimate Comics Spider-Man because I need ALL THE GWEN FIC, except I already have six requests and I love them all and don't want to drop them. Dilemmas! But at least this was the perfect time to be reading Maggie Fitzgerald and the Saltwater Drip, a fantastic Amazing Spider-Man fic where Gwen, not Peter, develops spidey superpowers, and that's exactly what I've been doing.

I've also been adding download links to the Miss Match fandom primer in the vague hopes that anybody anywhere will ever want to watch it. I don't even need yuletide fics that I've requested six years in a row! I'd settle for being able to squee about it with other people (*hint* you should totally go watch Miss Match it's adorable the links are right there). The first seven episodes are up so far, and I'm hoping to get the rest up before signups close.

Dear [livejournal.com profile] yuletide writer:

Thank you so much for writing me a fic! I'm sure it's going to be amazing, and I'm so looking forward to reading it. My requests are a little on the wordy side, but please don't let that intimidate you - if my optional details don't work for you, or if you already have an idea in mind, I'd much rather get a great story you're really excited about than something mediocre tailored exactly to my requests. But just in case you enjoy reading yuletide letters as much as I enjoy writing them, here are some ideas/extra information/things that would make me especially happy. (You can find me on AO3 as Zhailei.)

Dear author:

Thank you so much for writing me a fic! I'm so looking forward to reading whatever you write, since I love all these fandoms and tropes so, so much. In fact, I'm a huge fan of tropes and clichés in general, so please feel free to have as much fun with the fic you're writing as possible. I love ensemble fics, banter, makeouts, unresolved (and resolved) sexual tension, romantic comedy, action/adventure, casefic, wacky hijinks, humour, crack, PWPs, apocafic, and ridiculous AUs, and am happy to receive any rating; I'd prefer not to receive angst, issue!fic, or unhappy endings. In each fandom, I've also listed my favourite pairings; don't feel like you have to include these if they're not your thing, but I'd prefer not to receive pairings I didn't ask for.

Given the trope-matching element of the exchange, I've kept each of my requests relatively brief, but if you'd like more information, or specific prompts, you can check out the tags on my journal, comment anonymously, or ask the mods to pass along a message.

Happy birthday [livejournal.com profile] snickfic, [livejournal.com profile] corleones, and [livejournal.com profile] henpecked!

So I ended up signing up for [livejournal.com profile] sga_santa, which - I haven't done in about five years? But I've been doing a Stargate semi-rewatch lately, so it's got me nostalgic. I'm also doing [livejournal.com profile] femslashex and [livejournal.com profile] yuletide, so that's manageable; [livejournal.com profile] rarecharacters fics aren't in for another few weeks but I've already made a decent start on mine, so yay.

Also, I guess Gotham is going to be a thing? Which basically means I'm going to spend the next few months rolling my eyes at idiots on tumblr enthusing about YAY GOTHAM CENTRAL RENEE MONTOYA OMG, because Gotham Central this is not. Unfortunately. And I'm really not sure the world needs another variation on Batman: Year One (this time with less Batman), plus it means ever actually getting a Gotham Central series is possibly even less likely than ever, but whatever. (Ed Brubaker would like people to stop congratulating him, though.)

ETA: So livejournal won't let me post this with a link to the original article on Deadline, what the actual fuck is up with that.

Dear [community profile] femslashex author:

Thank you so much for making me something! I'm sure I'll love whatever you end up creating, but in general: I love ensemble fics, banter, makeouts, unresolved (and resolved) sexual tension, romantic comedy, action/adventure, wacky hijinks, humour, crack, PWPs, apocafic, and ridiculous AUs. I'm not super into angst, and I prefer fics where characters interact with people and do things over introspective character studies. I really, really, love tropes and clichés, and totally ridiculous, over the top plots, the more shameless the better. I love first times, and secret relationships, and casual hookups, and partners, and ex-girlfriends and boyfriends, and rekindling old relationships. I love people being in love without having to say it, and people who are obviously in love but maybe don't realise it, and ridiculously overblown romantic gestures where one person completely embarrasses themselves, and small gestures that mean a whole lot more than they seem to. Most of all, I love characters who are genuinely really into each other. I'm happy to read any rating, and smut is welcome but absolutely not necessary, though I would prefer having the characters actually hook up in some way in the story (makeouts = <3).

Happy birthday [livejournal.com profile] frolicndetour, [livejournal.com profile] lizardbeth_j, and [livejournal.com profile] mammothluv! I hope you all had a fantastic day.

Something something yuletide something femslashex something possible comics exchange. And space_exchange, but that's not until next year, unfortunately. So many things! I think I'm already pretty set on what I'm going to request for yuletide, but I'm still waffling over my fourth request. (Spoiler alert: Avalon High is set to become my new Miss Match. WATCH ME REQUEST IT FOR THE NEXT FIVE YEARS AND GET NOTHING.)

Come talk to me about the things you're excited about!

[livejournal.com profile] rarecharacters is next, and then I think that's it until yuletide? Speaking of which, well. There's been an explosion of rare [x] exchanges this year (AND I'M PRETTY SURE I'VE PARTICIPATED IN ALL OF THEM), so I feel like it matters less if yuletide ends up being a clusterfuck, and it's never been great on comics anyway. DON'T CARE STILL GONNA WRITE ALL THE THINGS. I still wish there was a dedicated comics exchange at some point, though.

Dear [livejournal.com profile] rarecharacters writer:

Thank you so much for writing me a fic! Whatever you end up writing, I'm sure I'll love it, especially since it features one of my favourite female characters. If you don't want a whole lot of extra details, or if you already have an idea in mind, feel free to stop reading now and go with that, but I love talking about the things I love, so I've done that here. A lot.

I enjoy het, femslash, and gen. I love ensemble fics, banter, makeouts, unresolved (and resolved) sexual tension, romantic comedy, action/adventure, wacky hijinks, humour, crack, PWPs, apocafic, and ridiculous AUs. In general, I'm not super into angst, and I prefer fics where characters interact with people and do things over introspective character studies. I really, really, love tropes and clichés, and totally ridiculous, over the top plots, the more shameless the better - if you're ever wondering, does she want fic with pretending to be a couple/forced proximity/sharing a bed/bachelor auction/truth or dare/accidental makeouts/insert ridiculous cliché here, the answer is yes, yes I do. I love first times, and secret relationships, and casual hookups, and ex-girlfriends and boyfriends, and rekindling old relationships. I love people being in love without having to say it, and people who are obviously in love but maybe don't realise it, and ridiculously overblown romantic gestures where one person completely embarrasses themselves, and small gestures that mean a whole lot more than they seem to. Most of all, I love characters who are genuinely really into each other - as friends, or as more than that. I'm happy to read any rating, and smut is welcome but absolutely not necessary.
