We'll find out the gender of my sister's baby tomorrow! I'm so excited ♥ And I absolutely cannot wait for December to come, as they're coming home in time for Christmas, and could possibly stay for as long as three months. Yes, yes, yes.

I am also writing an LOTR ficlet about Éomer and Éowyn, since the idea struck while I was out reading fics for them. Apparently I am procrastinating again, since I told myself that I would start scouring for ideas for my Draco/Hermione fic assignment last Monday - and yet I've done everything but. Hnnnng. Self, what.



I only have three characters in two games but I seriously cannot, for the life of me, think of anything I could post for them. Like this afternoon, I was thinking of what to post for Moune and nothing came to mind. Also, my activity for Jii is atrocious but I don't know how to fix it. THANK GOODNESS THESE GAMES DON'T REQUIRE A POST FOR THE CHARACTERS, OR ELSE I AM LE DOOMED.

Speaking of characters, I am in the mood to pick up new ones for no specific rhyme or reason. I am thinking of:

Karen Smith (Mean Girls)
Miranda Priestly (The Devil Wears Prada)
Susan Pevensie (The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe)
Someone from Final Fantasy XIII (...Hope?)
Someone from The Lord of the Rings (...Grima?)

Not sure if this will happen, but out of these five I think Karen and Grima might push through since I adore playing dumb blondes (hi, Harmony) and I am dying to pick up another LoTR muse aside from Éowyn and Denethor. Heh.

Actually toying with the idea of apping Will Schuester somewhere. Maybe DDD? That is, if I can write an app for him since my rewatch of Season One is not yet done. Also, still uncertain about Cordy at [livejournal.com profile] betenoire_rp since... yeah. Angel characters, why have you left me :(

Based entirely on my personality (so block what I really look like out of your mind), hunt down a "played by" who you think would best represent me. Reply here with the picture or link.

-GASP- You like Susan? O.O LOL maybe I'm much too affected by The Last Battle, but even before reading that I just...never liked her. D:

And that is precisely why I'd love to read a Gollum-centric fic. If anyone can just mimic how he speaks and put it into writing, that would be awesome. :D

Idk! Admittedly I haven't read the any of the books until after the first movie came out, and after that I only read TLTWANW because that was a gift to me :P

Hmm, yeah. I just noticed that even the LOTR Fic Archive (http://www.tolkienfanfiction.com/) I visited don't have a single fic taken from his POV. That's odd.

The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe has its charm, but I like the last two books more. :D READ IT! Anyway, the movies are quite excellent; definitely loved how they did the first movie. XD

Because no one likes Gollum, I think? XD And I guess a lot of LOTR fans are tired of hearing him talk about his Precious. XD Smeagol would be another option, but I think a fic showing some Gollum-Smeagol alter ego interactions would be a nice one. :D

The first movie was definitely gorgeous! The second one... ugh, that scene when they attacked the castle and they had to retreat and left some of the warriors behind for them to die has forever tainted my soul :( :( :( Plus the whole Two Towers feel of the ending... yeah, not a fan of the second one.

Probably. It's tiring to hear/read him say 'My Precioussssss' over and over again :P

The second one was definitely darker and I liked the first one more (I have to admit I haven't seen the third one--EEP). But the second movie has Prince Caspian Reepicheep, who is adorable. XD AND UGH THAT SCENE! D: I don't think that was in the book (it's been ages since I last read it), so when I watched that scene for the first time I was horrified. ;___;

I was like WHY DOES THIS SCENE EXIST IN A KIDS' MOVIE OH GOD MY HEART MY HEART MY HEART T____T

The third one I haven't seen yet, and I have no plans to. Just not interested, heh.
