A plateful of cookies

Taken from dawnduskdancer.
Describe pairings in fifteen words or less, and have your flist guess their identities.

Fifteen because it seems a nice number. Not because I couldn’t think of more or that less seems paltry.
Pairing is a flexible term, right? Right?

1. Nothing’s better than a picnic with some cake.

2. They both suffer unrequited love for another; hers for another man, his for her.

3. He cares more about his appearance than she does about hers.

4. For someone who studies anthropology, she’s pretty clueless to his advances.

5. Friends forever, always together. // Study sessions? Sure they are…

6. Off we go a zombie hunting!

7. Daddy puts up with Mommy’s teasing very well!

8. Kicking ass is their job, protecting his is hers.

9. Their partial immortality tends to get in the way of things.

10. He’s her knight in shining armour. Literally.

11. Messing with history ends up being a bit of a matchmaker.

12. Fairies are nasty, but at least they got a happy ending.

13. They work and don’t play, despite all of her attempts otherwise.

14. They break the seme/uke stereotypes stupendously.

15. Work-based relationships are usually frowned upon. Unless you’re these guys. Then it’s a grin.

 

You get an extra hint for 5 because the first one was too vague. None of these are crack, so they’re all ones I more or less ship at any given time.
Points will be awarded based on ones you get right. 2 for correct pairings, 1 for correct fandom but incorrect guess. For 8, there are two possible pairings and 3 points is awarded to the ‘proper’ answer. No points awarded if you get threesomes wrong by leaving out or adding another character.

Comments are gonna be screened for a couple of days, then I’ll make the answers post.

1. Post about something that made you happy today, even if it’s just a small thing.
2. Do this every day for a week without fail.
3. Tag 8 of your friends to do the same.

What Made Me Happy Today: FINAL DAY OF MEME. (Actually, I'll do another day, just because)

But what really made me happy was the pizza for dinner. We usually get Domino's, which is okay, but not brilliant. Today though, we got some pizza at Wholly Bagels.
And it was DELICIOUS. We got the New Yorker size, which was HUMONGOUS and was barely finished by the three of us. (My dad, my mum and me) The cheese was good but the crust was excellent. Mmm... recomending it to everyone.

What Made Me Happy Today: MY TEETH ARE GOOD.
I went to the dentist today for a check up, and he says my wisdom teeth are fine, I just need to check no food gets stuck under the gum and need to brush towards the back more.
Also, the build-up behind my retainer wire got removed. YAY! It was annoying me.
I MAY have to get my lower wisdom teeth pulled, but only if they get infected or make things sore, etc. Wisdom teeth are not dying out in my genetics...

Also, Callum was even more sad today that we'd all be leaving and that made me feel loved. (If not a bit sad as well.)

AND BROWNIES AND CHOCOLATE ICING.

I note that I have never kicked up a fuss about going to the dentists. (I'm a good girl like that.) This may be because my first dentist had these little bottles that fake teeth came in or something and would randomly give one to me sometimes. And I could see all the cool equipment but never got to see it used because it was all for dentures or something.
Generally, because I enjoyed my visits to the dentist when I was little, I brushed my teeth and don't really have dental problems. Well... that and I thought toothpaste tasted good.

What Made Me Happy Today: A comment conversation with fae_elric about Torchwood.
Reading Sarah Monette's LJ and the various questions she's answered about Melusine etc.
"Shut up and eat your damn turnip!"
And the multitude of quotes from people at school today, including:
I like that idea. The universe has a very slow heartbeat that lasts billions of years.- Rhiannon

Everything is a type of rock when it comes down to it. - Rhiannon

It sounds like usual shipping charges apply. - Stuart (our teacher), on an HP fic being discussed over the Centaurus table.

C: (to Rhiannon) Are you diurnal?
R: Eh?
S: Do you have two urns?
C: It's the opposite of nocturnal.
S: Which means you have no urns. - me, Rhiannon and Stuart

First: ☆ BLEACH FRIENDING MEME

Even if, because I already am a friend of yours, that is useless, please go, especially you Rhi, because I don't want to be the only H!IchiTatsu shipper there. Only four pages! Easy to find people!

Now, I shall post two fic now... THEY'RE ANCIENT.

The Fanfic-Writer's Meme

Tagged by arathe and lina_kun

1. Which is your favorite fic? I love them all!
But I think, seven days is my favourite currently.

2. Which is your best-received fic? Ame. I haven't posted it to LJ, but it's got something crazy like 20 favourites on ff.net and several warm reviews.

3. Which is your worst-received fic? Maybe. I think it's my worst received. I don't like it either so I say it is.

4. Which is your angsty-est fic? Life is beautiful There are other fics I've written which are angsty and even more which are bittersweet, but this is definitely one of the angstiest.

5. Which is your funniest fic? I personally like "What lies beyond those hills?" Bleach version but I think a few of my FMA ones could also be considered the funniest.
The Wrong Trousers would be my pick.

6. Smuttiest? This one. It's untitled, it's Ed/Roy. Yeah. That's the one I think is smuttiest, although I think I've written a few more fics which oozed sensuality more than that one.

7. Fluffiest? Rainbow socks. Hands down. Again, I havne't posted it to LJ but it does give you warm fuzzies. (It's an IshiHime, it SHOULD)

8. Have you ever made someone cry with a fic? I don't recall any comments like that... I think. I know I've made people feel sad though.
Much better at making people feel happy though.

9. Which fic frustrates you the most? Maybe
Seemed brilliant at the time, not so much later. There are others like a random one with the Elrics and retelling what happened with Cornello, but that one makes me cringe whenever I browse through my completed stuff.

10. Which fic was the most fun to write? Uh... All of them? I think anything with xxxHOLiC, Ishida family, Isshin, Gin or the Disc is fun. But the one I had the most shits and giggles would probably be... Hubble, bubble, boil and trouble.

11. Who is your favorite OC you've ever created? Uh... Ume? Who technically isn't an OC but a name I thought of for a character who has never been named? (In this case, Ishida's mother)
If that doesn't count, Wilson who I am SURE appears in Lancre somewhere but I can't be bothered to go look up.
If original fic counts, I like Ascot and Thomhas of the Delvewood estate.

12. Are you better at oneshot or mulitpart? ONESHOT. I can't keep a consistent plot for my life. Well, I possibly could, but yeah... I just burn out.

13. What character do you think you're the best at portraying? Yuuko. I think.
She's very fun to write and also very fun personality wise and kind of jumps around the place around a lot, except when she's being serious. When she is serious though, it's beautiful.

14. What character is the most difficult to portray? That I've tried... I think Hollow Ichigo. Everyone from FMA is dead easy, same with InuYasha and a whole load of my old fandoms, CLAMP in general is on the easy side, Discworld is just a plain walk in the park (except for Susan. But she's contrary anyway) but Bleach proves a challenge. Mostly because there's a lot of characters, but also because an awful lot of them are guys and keep to themselves. Hollow Ichigo is just a complete mystery. Ishidas' are a bit hard too. I dread Touya as well.
I forgot. Dream (Morpheus) is a terribly drag as well if he isn't around any of his siblings.

15. Tag five other authors! I tag... _debbiechan_, shadowsinfire, fae_elric, stark_black and danwduskdancer
Basically, anyone on my flist who does write fanfic and hasn't already done this and appears regularly.



I really need to make that writing journal and archive EVERYTHING.
