I am overwhelmed by ficathons I stupidly signed up for, multiverse and the femgenficathon and twicetoldfandom, and I want to write for all of them but I'm so busy and I'm so tired and I've not the heart for it, nor the inspiration, not really.

But I want to write, so tell me what to write. Name a fandom I know, character/pairing, prompt, go wild. No promises.

    Media recently consumed:

  • The Curse of the Golden Flower. I love Gong Li, and I love Chow Yun Fat, and I have a shameful love of Jay Chou that I try not to talk about. One of my favourite things about Chinese history is the opulence of the emperors, the golds and the reds and the enormity of the Forbidden City. I enjoyed this movie very much, though I found the subtitles incredibly distracting. Also, the large amount of breastage was distracting, completely inappropriate for the time period as it was.

  • Nochnoi Dozor, which made very little sense, and was gruesome and horrible but brilliantly captivating. We've purchased the first two books to read, to see if that helps or makes it worse.

  • Pirates of the Carribean: At World's End. I've surprisingly little urge to fic, though Miss Fahye wrote a perfect, perfect ending, and I find that, though ambivalent to Will/Elizabeth previously, I am in love with the Captains Turner. I still miss Anamaria, though, and her lack is perhaps the impetus I require to write. The thing I loved the most, though, was the singing, at the beginning, and Barbossa telling them all that the song has been sung. I loved that little weaving, it was mystical and awesome. Also, Chow Yun Fat, rinse, repeat.

  • The Lives of Others, I am unused to these heavy German films, though my partner, being of German descent, is quite familiar with them, and herding me towards familiarity. This was emotional and powerful and I cried, at the end.

  • Heavy Weights was described as 'a German Cool Runnings,' not really an accurate description. It was funny, yes, and it was about underdogs in sledding, yes, but it was Germany after the war and it was petty and it was funny and it yes. It was fun, I enjoyed it.

Today I was reminded of the main reason why I love pilots: Do I have to smack you in the mouth?
