YULETIDE WRITING TIME!

Name: musesinspire
AO3 Name: musesinspiration



Welcome, dear yuletide author!

I am so very excited that you are going to be writing something for me! I love this time of year as it allows me to create things for others and possibly get something in return! Since you're here and reading my letter, I'm guessing that you have come here for an idea of what I would like to receive.

I will start off with my favorite fandoms:

• Terminator Series (specifically Terminator Salvation)


• Legion 2010


• Chronicles of Riddick

Next I will provide my favorite things (want) to find in a piece of fiction:

• Humor


• Action


• Romance (but with it being part of the overall story, not just thrown in)


• Character interaction that seems plausible, not stilted or contrived


• Awesome dialog that you could picture the characters actually saying if you were there with them

Now, I will give you a short (hopefully) list of things that I really do not want in a story:

• Slash


• MPreg


• Non-Con


• Heavy angst


• PWP


• Out of character writing

I suppose that I should provide you with a list of my favorite characters as well, shouldn't I?

• Terminator Salvation: Marcus Wright, John Connor, Kate Brewster


• Legion 2010: Michael, Audrey, Gabriel


• Riddick: Riddick, Vaako

Now.. what would I like overall? Well, you will find, if you look through my VARIOUS WRITINGS, you will see that I adore, just adore, crossovers! My current fandom obssesions are all above fandoms crossed with BtVS. Drama, action, romance, hot het... you name it, as long as it involves the crossover of the above fandoms, I will be derliously happy! lol My favorite pairings, crossover-wise, are:

• Marcus Wright/Buffy Summers


• Michael/Kyra (Riddick)


• Riddick/Buffy Summers


• Vaako/Audrey Anderson

Pure character pairings:

• John Connor/Kate Brewster (Terminator Salvation)


• Gabriel/Audrey (Legion 2010)


• Riddick/Kyra (Riddick)

Some additional prompts that I think I would like to see maybe incorporated into the story:

• Songs: Crossfire - Brandon Flowers; Iris - Goo Goo Dolls; Like A Stone - Audioslave; Wonderwall - Oasis; Halo - Beyonce


• Quotes: A strong body makes the mind strong; Too often the strong, silent man is silent only because he does not know what to say; When your desires are strong enough you will appear to possess superhuman powers to achieve.


• General Settings: Solitary confinement; a night in the woods; the storm after the calm

I love to read... and I have no real requests for actual settings/style/etc. That's what part of the fun is, I think! What kind of surprise is it if I tell you exactly what to make?? I might as well have just gone ahead and written it myself! I can't wait to see what you place in the archive for me! :-)

Laptop is dead.

D.E.D.

Dead.

It's not the charger, because the charger powers my husband's laptop, too. It's not JUST the battery, because even if it WERE the battery, it would still get power from the charger.

Nope.

It's dead.

What's the problem, you ask? Well... SHAWN'S laptop has Linux on it. 0.o And apparently Verizon FiOS does not like Linux. It won't even let me direct connect into the router with a LAN cable.

So... Unless I can access it on my Zune or get to it from my work computer, until the tax refund arrives, there will be no internetz at home.

ARGH!!!!

*sigh*

Yes... I'm indulging myself with my new obsession.

Everyone, meet the latest member of my harem!!

So... I have had several plot bunnies eating away at me lately, ever since Friday night, actually! I'm toying with some fic ideas, but they always get sidetracked by artwork ADD.

:-D

My latest creation!!

Other than random posts, I've been rather out of pocket lately... I'm sorry! It's been rather insane lately and I just haven't felt like doing a whole lot.

Sunday, May 24th, was, as usual, extremely rough. Lexy's been gone from us for 5 years now and I just had a rough time of it that day. I spent all day thinking that this is the year she'd start kindergarten and all those things we will never get to see with her. As usual, I always wonder what she would look like now; would she have brown hair still? - Blue eyes? Would she be laid back like Christian or hyper-diva like Mia?

My only request from anyone and everyone, is please educate yourselves on SIDS and then in turn, educate others. No one should have to live with a tragedy such as this.


( Now for the real drama )

Name your 10 absolutely favorite couples (het/slash/canon/fanon) and ask people to see what trends they notice about your couples. Try to pick different fandoms! (Yeah, I failed on this part, I think... LOL)

In no particular order:

1. Buffy Summer/Dean Winchester


2. Dawn Summers/Derek Reese


3. Dawn Summers/Marcus Wright


4. John Connor/Kate Brewster


5. Harry Dresden/Dawn Summers


6. Jayne Cobb/River Tam


7. Buffy Summers/Malcolm Reynolds


8. Willow/Oz (they need no last names!!)


9. Buffy Summers/Riddick


10. Dawn Summers/Sam Winchester

Well, I have to say... Terminator Salvation has definitely inspired me!
