- Include this explanation and offer to ask other people questions.


This one is foryeomanrand :

1. Pick one of your fandoms, then name a pairing you could never write for that fandom, and say why.
This one is kind of hard because I tend to be very open about pairings.  I tend to move through them, and I never know where I'll be in a month's or year's time.  But, I have no interest in Shawn/Gus from Psych, so I probably wouldn't write it.  I usually love buddy!slash, but Shawn/Lassiter is my firm Psych OTP and I'm not interested in breaking them up. 

2. Who do you want to see cast as Janice Rand? Should she keep the beehive?
I keep coming back to Kirsten Dunst.  She's cute, blond, and I think she would work for the background you wrote for her in Chances.  As for the beehive, I'm not a big fan.  However, I do love big sexy hair, so if they updated it, I'd be ok with a big sexy 'do.  What about you?

3. What's your first fannish memory?
Coming across fanvids for Lord of the Rings.  I was amazed at the concept for all of about two minutes, and then I was hooked and couldn't get enough.  Well, I'm still amazed at the concept, lol.

4. What is your quest?
To be the best person I can be, and help others when I can.

5. What is the flight speed of an unladen swallow?
roughly 11 meters per second, or 24 miles an hour.  (*g* I loved this question.  That was a favorite movie to watch with my high school BF)

1. That's funny; I barely watch Psych (though my sister pestered me until I watched "The head, the tail, the whole damn episode" because we are such Jaws fans), but I still know who you are talking about. :)

2. You know, Kiki would work, I think. Although, after seeing this (http://shinychimera.livejournal.com/10549.html) what shinychimera made for me, I did have to posit the Freudian complications of casting Jennifer Morrison as Rand. :D

5. Yay! I always worry when I pose that question that I'll be asking it of someone who (gasp) hasn't seen the movie!

Lol, Jaws. Yeah, I loved that episode! Have you seen any of the first season? It's the best one, and extremely slashy between Shawn and Lassiter. I swear, I think they actually did it on purpose with that subtext in mind.

That was an awesome manip! Lol, I don't think Jennifer would work as mother and yeoman. Too bad, because she deserved more than just a few moments in the beginning of the movie.

Lol, well, I suppose there are people who haven't.

OMG Kirsten Dunst FUCK YES. I hadn't thought much on Rand butOMG YES.

[pslasher.livejournal.com]

Wouldn't she fit? She's cute, perky, but I think she could play the kind of tough needed for Starfleet, and to keep Kirk in line. I hadn't thought much on Rand either until I read Chances. Then I kept searching through all the women I thought would fit, but kept coming back to Kirsten.

[thalialunacy.livejournal.com]

I've yet to watch TOS, so any Rand is lost on me. ^^ But I shall save the link for after I have.

[pslasher.livejournal.com]

I still haven't seen much, other than the movies. We should watch them together!

[thalialunacy.livejournal.com]

omg that would be awesome! Good motivation for me to finally see them. ^^ But I'm weird and won't watch them out of order.... is that okay?

[pslasher.livejournal.com]

That's totally ok! I want to see them from the beginning too. When do you want to do it - now or after the big bangs? Do you want to watch together and chat on Sundays, or watch seperate and chat later? I've never really watched a show with anyone online before.

[thalialunacy.livejournal.com]

God yeah we should probably wait until BB is over. X( Booooo. Although maybe it'd be good motivation, idk. But I don't want to get TOS canon mixed up with the stupidly complex canon I have made up in my head for my story.... Harrumph.

[pslasher.livejournal.com]

X( But I totally understand waiting. I don't want to be distracted either. That will be something cool to look forward to after BB. Oooh, complicated storylines sound interesting! I can't wait to hear more! How's the help_haiti coming along?

[thalialunacy.livejournal.com]

it's neeeearly done. I'm just feeling like the last scene, as it is, the huge omg confrontation scene, is too... tame. IDK. I'm doing a silly C/K as a birthday present and maybe it'll bring back the mojo.

[pslasher.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry it's still giving you trouble. Is there anything I can do to help? I'm sure the C/K will bring back the mojo ;)

[thalialunacy.livejournal.com]

Hmm... I dunno. Prolly I just need to slog through it. Then I might ask you to read it? to tell me if the ending's too much of a letdown, lol?

[pslasher.livejournal.com]

Sure thing, bb. I'd be happy to read it. Just let me know :)

OMG, guess what game got played at the block party I attended last night? MOTHERFUCKING BEERPONG!!! I kid you not, I nearly died laughing when they brought out the table. If they had brought out the PBR it would have all been over, but they had Bud Light I think.

I didn't play, because I had enough partying Saturday night, but I watched. The hostess' daughter had a bunch of her collage friends over, and they played. I have actually never played it, or seen it played, and it was so amusing to watch. Except that it didn't seem to make much sense. No one was drinking much, and isn't that the point of the game? I guess they weren't trying to get trashed in her mom's house, with the whole neighborhood over. Which is good, and I enjoyed seeing it in action.

Although, I have to note that it is one unsanitary game. I mean, that ball was all over the place - on the patio, in the grass, everyone toughing it. LOL, I guess people aren't that worried about it.

[thalialunacy.livejournal.com]

LOLOL DUDE BRO

oh yeah it's totally unsanitary. I've actually never played, just watched my fair share. I get the appeal, but I most certainly do not share it. XB

[pslasher.livejournal.com]

IT WAS EPIC!

I might have tried it if it wasn't the neighborhood party. But I didn't because I'm responsible like that. But I thought of you and Chris and Karl all night. Instead I played a game called corn hole (I swear that's what it's called) and beat the other team.

[thalialunacy.livejournal.com]

Corn hole?! I'm not even gonna ask. ;)

[pslasher.livejournal.com]

Haha, that was my response too! It's sort of like horseshoes with beanbags, except the bags have corn in them. It's a fun backyard game.

[thalialunacy.livejournal.com]

You know, the day after you commented this, I saw the game mentioned on someone else's lj. LOL..

[pslasher.livejournal.com]

Apparently it's quite a widespread and serious game. There are even nationwide competitions. :shrugs:
