OK, this won't make sense to anyone who's not reading Questionable Content, but... you know that dance that Spuffy shippers did the first time they saw the last scene of OMWF?

Guess what I'm doing right now.



Oh, and I did some icons for lateseasonlove's "Two To Go" challenge.

1. 2. 3. ( 9 more )

Oh, and this week is crossover pairings week at still_grrr. I suppose I'm all out of excuses for not writing that thing I promised spuffyduds...

I won awards! As did some people on my flist, so congrats to shapinglight and snowpuppies (as well as all the other winners, of course) and huge thanks to everyone who voted/judged!

( Under the cut )

But enough about me; make sure you check out snowpuppies' ficlet Chosen, which is a chilling and very convincing slice of Watcher-Slayer interaction.

Finally, a few icons I made for the still_grrr prompt "Surrealism," shamefully ripping off René Magritte's The Treachery of Images; the painting of a pipe with the caption "This is not a pipe." Because things are never what they seem in the Jossverse.

1. Just got caught up with s3 of New Doctor Who and while I wouldn't say I'm completely sold on it yet, it does have a lot of great things about it (RTD's scripts not always being one of them, but...) So if anyone has any fic or similar stuff that I just *have* to read, I'd appreciate a rec! (Also, I need a dalek icon. Daleks > Everything Else In The Universe Ever.)

ETA: Thanks stormwreath for the icon!

2. A couple of Buffyverse recs, since I don't rec nearly enough stuff:

• Of All the Wonders That I Yet Have Heard by girlpire (Angel/Darla, R). Fantastic take on what might have happened post-"Lullaby."
  
• frogfarm finished Big Country (Faith/Willow, R). Post-"Chosen" (slightly AU, see pairing), but the past just never lets Faith go...
  
• I'll Have What She's Having by spuffyduds is a Twin Peaks crossover! (Faith/Audrey, PG13). (And I do have my own take on the pairing, which will be appearing shortly.
  
• Come Into My Parlor by bookishwench (Tara/?, PG13). Excellent pre-canon look at Tara (as is frogfarm's One Summer, My Far Horizon, though that one heads off-canon into very believable Faith/Tara).
  
• And finally, Buffybot's Big Adventure! by Alex Wert sees the return to the Buffyverse of one of my favourite humour ficcers. This is a WIP taking place post-"Bargaining", but so far he always finishes his stories and they usually end up hilarious. (Buffybot/Various, R)
  
• Also, I put some recs up at buffyversetop5: Faith/Buffy, list-type fics, drabbles, episode rewrites, season 8.

3. Finally, a couple of icons I've made on a whim and never posted here.
( Slight spoilers for the comics )

Just some icons I whipped up while in a state of boredom. And also for a few challenges.

( Spoilerish icons from 'Season 8' #10 )

( For the still_grrr challenge 'noir' )

( For the lateseasonlove challenge 'Villains' )

12-16: quotes from The Maltese Falcon and The Big Sleep. And yes, 22 is a quote from the Buffy movie.

Not my best work, but if anyone wants 'em... feel free.

So, 2007 was the year when I discovered how much fun it can be to make icons. And I know there's one more month to go but I really shouldn't spend it in Photoshopland. So here's a roundup post of all the ones I made, all... holy crap... 126 of them. There's a couple new ones in here somewhere, too.

( Listings and huge friggin' table under the cut )

Well, it's that time of year again. December means holiday icons. *points to Richard Wilkins in a festive mood*

Also, re the adult flagging thing. ( Cut because I'm not sure if anyone really cares, but there's a Ramones song in here )

Also: huge thanks to whoever sent me a virtual cup of cocoa! Mmmm.

At the very last second - happy birthday jaded_jamie!

Here's some Dexter icons for ya!

OK, so in honour of the (hopefully) forthcoming Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles starring Summer Glau, I was thinking of crossover potential. And as the old jungle proverb says, only a robot can make a robot happy. So I present to you... the One True Robotic Pairing, or ROBOTP for short: Cameron/Buffybot. (Who should probably not be shortened to Cambot, or us MST3K fans will be very confused.)

( Five more )

Also, a couple of random Buffyverse icons:
( Six more )

Happy birthday to the wonderful bakatulip! Yeah, a couple of hours early, but what the heck.

Here! Have some Willow/Tara and Willow/Fred icons!

( 7 more )

Also, inspired by maharet83's 8.08 icons, I thought I'd try to cheer Faith up a bit:

Also, I completely forgot to pimp this story which the lovely sl_podcast wrote for my birthday. Thanks a lot for all good wishes, everyone!

Go WGA.
