Tsunami of Polls: We moved back into the restored apartment....
......and my first "official" act in fandom was to:
[Poll #1965322][Poll #1965322]
And the correct answer is....
#5! Yup, a massive, massive fail on my part. Actually, all of the choices represent a massive fail on my part, except for the last choice for which I DO NOT APOLOGIZE.
(She was mentioning how a character in her new novel has an opportunity to mindwipe the memories of another and doesn't because he respects her too much and it's not what she would want. Also, she just began watching btvs S1 at my urging and is NOT impressed with Angel or Xander. At all.) I actually spent hours making icons for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
slayerstillness challenge #22 "A Room Full of Emptiness" (Negative Space)" ("Ooh, I can do this one!"); hours dithering over which to chose before deciding to actually ask my beta ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
wickedbish for help; and then failed to send him the link to the Photobucket folder so he could actually see the icons. By the time I figured out my mistake, it was too late to enter the challenge. (And I'm a little pissed at myself, because I think I made some good icons and really enjoyed getting back into the creative flow for the first time in weeks.)
But at least I manage to vote as the deadline isn't until tomorrow (midnight your time) hence still time to vote and pimp it - so there's a penance, at least.
And entries are being accepted for the latest challenge #23 (deadline Friday) so there's lots o' time left to enter. Yup, lots o' time....
The only fail more massive is #4 - I have NOT gotten around to congratulating all the winners of the Willowy Goodness Awards, includingvelvetwhip, snogged, foxstarreh, clockwork_hart1, tiny_white_hats, and snowpuppies amoung others. Congratulations to all the winners (by which I include "Runners Up" aka the silver and bronze medalists). I actually did vote in that one too and cheese on a cracker did you folks make it painfully hard to choose!
ETA: ALL credit to the amazingeilowyn for urging me to watch Orphan Black, which I'd never heard of until she mentioned it.

(How could anyone NOT ship a lesbian inter-species, Victorian, crime-fighting married couple? Heck, if they ever got a spin-off, Moffat has already declared that it's be called 'Tipping the Scales'. *g*)

The fact that we live in a world where this is an actual canon couple AND you're able to say that Lucy is a very very beautiful thing indeed - and completely unimaginable just a few years ago. The revolution is happening right here, NOW, everyday.

For a second I thought "He's read Sarah Waters?" and then I remembered, oh, miniseries adaption - but anyway my favorite of her first three books is Fingersmith. But how cool is it that he can make that reference knowing his audience will "get it"?
