Shannon, I fear you've unleashed a monster. Thank you for showing me the Zamzar conversion site. Now we can has vids!
Wolf's Rain - Teenagers: Seriously, I was surprised that nobody had made a comparable vid.
Armstrongs of Amestris: Fullmetal Alchemist vs. the best number from the best snarky musical evah (except possibly Wicked or Chicago). C'mon, you know you want to see Maes Hughes as Ben Franklin... ;)

Nothin' like a bit of randomosity... On a slightly more edjumacational spammy note, A beta reader review/feedback form. Always good to know who and what is useful out there.
Dear elvenpiratelady, I don't really know how to tell you this, but the mafia wants you. I think I realized it when I quoted Santa in your closet and I saw you carve your initials into Manchester United's goalkeeper. I'm sure you're man enough to understand that Santa doesn't exist. I'm returning your memories from the military service to you, but I'll keep the oil stocks as a memory. You should also know that I will tell the authorities about Oprah Winfrey imitations.
Greetings to your frog Leonard, B2WM

I'm not dominating the world, just the alphabet. Alphabet fic title meme, from El:
A is for All You Need is a Catchphrase (LotR, with Discworld influences) B is for Beer, Please (LotR) C is for Cunning One (LotR) D is for Dancing in the Dark (LotR) E is for Every Man an Island (The Island) F is for Fool's Law (Harry Potter) G is for Gained in Translation (LotR) H is for How Malcolm Reynolds Learned to Knock (Firefly) I is for Illumination (LotR) J is for --- K is for --- Killing Lands, The (LotR) L is for Like the Heathen Kings of Old (LotR) M is for May Contain Nuts (Harry Potter) N is for No More Than a Broken End (LotR) O is for Only the Good Die Young (Firefly) P is for Prawns (Discworld) Q is for Quite a Sight to Stomach (Wolf's Rain) R is for Reflection (LotR) S is for Seven Rejected Photographs from Hughes's Wallet (FMA) T is for Traveling (FMA) U is for --- Unconquerable (LotR) V is for Valier (Silmarillion) W is for Winter of a Spring Bride (LotR) X is for --- Y is for --- You Won't Like Me When I'm Tired (FMA) Z is for ---
Let's see... my throwaway title to get all the rest of the letters would have to be "Just King Under the Xerves Youth Zoo." Van Hohenhiem bunny, anyone?

How I learned to stop worrying and love my hoopty So, between the front tires/radiator/holes OT3 my car went through last week and the dog bite to the face, the past few days have been... interesting. So, to get away from that, a brief introduction to the fandoms meme:

Updating my meme; nothing much to see here, folks. If you like, I did try a WR slideshow. Music protection is a pain, just so you know. Bleach Exile has also started loading the related manga, though I'm glad to have my own copy. You get what you pay for, translationwise.
The interests meme's coming around again, thanks to catus_wren.
( Okay, so maybe there's a lot. )
For dealing with that, let me throw out a character meme and drabble request, too. I feel like I've been out of touch with the good prompts for a while.
( the character meme as stolen from were_lemur: )
Fandoms: Lord of the Rings, Firefly, Discworld, Fullmetal Alchemist, Wolf's Rain, Star Wars, Dr. Who (warning: I'm severely behind on the latest greatest), Animorphs

Take over, the break's over Final offical count on Nano: 33279. Well, that's 1110 words a day on average, give or take a crackbunny.
As a wrap-up, that writer's meme that I've seen around:

Pics are worth another 1k each, right? Ah, visual aids. Even when my own doodlings suck, they can at least remind me of where I wanted to go with a fic, sometimes quite literally. Then, there are the icons made purely for amusement.

Be wevy, wevy quiet...
In 2007, b2wm resolves to... Learn to play the denethor. Admit my true feelings to deu_sex_machina. Volunteer to spend time with role-play games. Pay for my good ocs on time. Give up snarking. Eat more star wars.
Don't ask me how I can give up snarking while playing Denethor and admitting that deu sex machina did some awesome sporkings. I'm busy hunting gungans for rpg_realm.
When comes to paying for good ocs, though, I really ought to review more...

I believe the term is WOOT. Happy Turkey Day tomorrow for those of you celebrating it. For me, the current celebration features 20K and my bro home from college.
Another excerpt, from the shorter post-anime Wolf's Rain piece: (My "novel?" Four stories so far, and two of those have such big time jumps from chapter to chapter that they might as well be collections...)

All I need to know about fandom I learned from crackbunnies. Not much done today, wordcountwise, but 8085 total ain't bad.
I'm including it in my wordcount, 'cause "And Other Stories" is part of the title.
Also from the Department of Cracky Crossovers:
Scar, Tsume. Sexme, the Ishvalan. I wouldn't shake if I were you.

Yeah, yeah, I realize I'm slow. *Does the 10% of Nanov written dance* And hey, I've managed to cover that much with (100 and) 5% crack, 35% Fullmetal, and 60% Wolf's Rain, neither of which is exactly finished yet. Linear? What is this linear you speak of? I'm busy with gay adopted wolves, their cats, and wannabe Fuhrers who love dogs... More fic samples to follow, eventually.

The Will and the Wordcount (Hand gestures optional) So, yes, I'm actually attempting Nano this year... or at least 50000 words in fandom. Like last year, this'll mostly be through parallel storylines. This time, I'm aiming for at least two thousand per character, instead of the drabblematic. To start us off, one of my new sources of crack, thanks to boz4pm:
( What's that gesture resemble? Prayer? )
I also have commited fanart, (shippy, even, gods forbid,) having seen nothing in my initial limited browsing that features a certain manga spoiler. 'Sides, how can this one resist trying a hand at Black Hayate? Fortunately, my scanner is currently not allowing me to inflict it upon the world. Because hands = argh, but are still kinda required for a certain alchemist, if you know what I mean.

Bad Warg's Rayne and other crack You know, generally I don't get too squeeful about TV shows. My schedule is usually too irregular to totally keep up with currently running serials. But I did catch the last half of Chuck on Monday and all I can say is see the subject line with slash goggles on. Adam Baldwin = <3. Amusing, ass-kicking, reluctant moonbrain-protecting <3. (Plus, after seeing an add for one of Fillion's films, an Alan Tudyk cameo in Knocked Up, and "Mr. Reynolds" tonight on NCIS, Firefly's becoming my own Bad Wolf.)
But I also randomly stumbled upon a very shiny Wolf on YouTube. Now, having grown up with irregular Dragon Ball Z and Sailor Moon episodes on Toonami, I never really gave anime much of a chance. But Wolf's Rain? Is v. pretty. Maybe it's just because I can watch multiple episodes in one go, but it also seems a heckuva lot more plotty than the traditional "I'm going to kill you!"/"Not if I can reach a higher constipation power level first!" of DBZ. Sure, you get the traditional Alpha-type, wingman type, omega kid, and lone wolf, but all of the above are [were]wolves. And even I can see the slash five episodes in.

Never let me say that the Bungles are good for nothing... So, wierd dream last night: ( lj-cut for silliness: )
So, yes, in other words, Firefly + football + "I can do ANYTHING in my MAN-PANTS!" from Ren faire = crack on a stick. I wonder about my brain at times; I really do...
For slightly less cracky (and probably funnier) misadventures of Mal and Jayne, you might want to check out Cliffhanger by A Wandering Minstrel.

Stolen Booty from Kippur
My pirate name is: Iron Charity Bonney A pirate's life isn't easy; it takes a tough person. That's okay with you, though, since you a tough person. You can be a little bit unpredictable, but a pirate's life is far from full of certainties, so that fits in pretty well. Arr!

All work and no LJ makes Warg a random nutter. So, at the kennel, we've gotten Frodo the cat, Gandalf the german shepherd, Boz the lab mix, and Sam the cutest little woobie dog ever. My first thought: OMG whar's teh Con?
Second thought: can we loose them on Little Evil Bastard Man, who's obviously Morgoth in cat form?
Nah, wouldn't want them getting hurt...

It can't be said enough. Heck, I know there are published authors on my flist, so this isn't directed at them; they get the "Go you!" However, for the Suethors we deal with for time to time, advice: it's not just for romance writers anymore.
Borders is doing some publishing deal contract contest thing off of that site, if anyone's interested, but somehow I can't see myself knocking out a multi-chapter romance novel by the twenty-second. Short genfic, on the other hand... that I can do. ;)

Gorrammit, why'd LJ go down right after I finished? This, of course, means warfic.
But first, relatively incoherent squeeing: ( Spoilers for the five people slower to read than me. )
Speaking of Lupin, the ending, et all, the fic I knocked off while LJ was down. Beware Pink Wolfstar and spoilers:
The Waystation
