I do love talking about music, and to be honest I'd never really analyzed the stuff that gets stuck in my head most often, so this seems like a fun one to dive into.( Read more... )

01. Grab the nearest book.
02. Turn to page 126
03. The 6th full sentence is your life in 2026.
I'll be honest I mostly did this because I knew my D&D books were the closest to me. So from D&D 3rd Edition's Complete Arcane: A Player's Guide to Arcane Magic for All Classes:
"However, if the subject gains at least as many negative levels as it has Hit Dice, it dies."
. . . Cheery.
(From the lvl 7 spell Sword of Darkness.)

Another Fanfic Meme
8 November 2025 23:49Well, I'm always a sucker for a good meme, and this one asks some fun questions. Grabbed from rhi.
1. Under what rating do you write most?
Definitely Gen, at 71.
2. What are your top 3 fandoms?
Highlander (41), Original Work (25), Guild Wars 2 (9).
3. What character do you write about the most?
Single character is Methos (28), but Original Characters has the highest listed count (32). Obviously that's multiple original characters, though, so don't know if I should count that or not.
4. What are the top 3 pairings you've written?
I only have one single romantic pairing that I've written more than once, Ladyhawke's Isabeau d'Anjou/Etienne Navarre, with 3 stories. I only have ten fics total with romantic ships at all, and the rest are a scattering of single stories.
If we include friendships as well, though, it's Methos & Richie Ryan (8), Duncan MacLeod & Methos (4), and. . . several others at a 3 count, but we'll go with Matthew McCormick & Original Characters (3).
5. What are the top 3 additional tags?
Episode Related (11), Post-Canon (10), and Superheroes (9).

26 October 2025 23:09Saw mentioned by a few people, actually grabbed from argentum_ls. I do love a good writing meme.
Rules: How many letters of the alphabet have you used for [starting] a fic title? One fic per line, 'A' and 'The' do not count for 'a' and 't'. Post your score out of 26 at the end, along with your total fic count.

Okay well I was thinking about posting this anyway, but argentum_ls also prodded me about doing it last night (this morning? It was like 2am), so here it is. :P
Pick a number and I'll answer!
