Sounds like a potential spin off, don't it?

Anyhow, as requested by cmadebyme_x, here's what I remember of my entry into the wonderful world of Supernatural.

Which TV shows did you let go of in 2017?
American Gods – couldn’t get to grips with it at all, in spite of really liking Ian McShane from way back (Loveday, anyone?) and the guy who played Shadow, who was mighty fine eye candy as well as a reasonable actor. Mr Robot – just couldn’t like it, however much I tried.  The Tick – again, being a Ben Edlund creation, I wanted to like it, but it bored me.

We were up at 6am to get layered up for our stint volunteering at the Christmas Dip. This time Paul was on setting up and collection duties while I was on the desk for on-the-day registrations. Which turned out to be lucky, as we were in the land-side of the promenade shelter where the desks were set up and the wind direction meant we were pretty sheltered! While the poor folks on the sea-ward side were right in the path of the cold. Still froze my knees off though LOL. Sadly, being on the wrong side plus having several people turn up to take part at literally the last minute, meant we didn't see anything of the whole rushing into the North Sea thing.

However, Paul was on the prom and took a few blurry pics. I think you can still see the man on the right riding a polar bear...

I was about to shout House! When I realised I do have a real best friend (my lovely hubby) and I somehow managed to stay awake all day today so I fail at this Bingo card. But hey, I got closer to finishing this one than any other bingo's I've tried over the last few years so YAY!

Day 12
What makes you fannish? And by that we mean, what is it about a tv show/movie/book/band/podcast/etc that takes you from, "Yeah, I like that," to "I need MOAR!!!" Is it a character? A plotline? The pretty? Subtext that’s just screaming to be acknowledged? In your own space, tell us what it is that gets you to cross that line into fandom.

I have just randomly accepted a friend's offer of a 2nd row ticket to Tom Hiddleston's premier of High Rise - Meep! I've never been to a movie premier before and am now panicking about what to wear. Plus I'd just booked my train tickets to go see my Mum the day before this premier so now have to travel up to hers, then the next day travel down to London, and stay overnight... Um, what am I doing!? Just to see the back of Hiddleston's head...

Does anyone know how these shenanigans work? Do the plebs with tickets have to arrive earlier and walk the red carpet? Are we allowed to take cameras and hang around like paparazzi? Can I wear my Keens?

Because everyone is doing it and we are all individuals except me.

I'm a geek who's been watching sci fi/fantasy since I was a little kid, starting with Dr Who, then walking two miles every Monday night to watch Star Trek at my Gran's coz she had a telly when we didn't, reading Lord of the Rings when I was 11 then over and over again until I lost count of the number of times' I'd read it and my copy fell apart. And I still haven't forgiven my ex boyfriend from when I was 18 who NEVER GAVE MY BATTERED COPY BACK WHEN I LENT IT TO HIM! *are you listening, Mike you bastard?*  That was *cough cough* over 35 years ago but I haven't forgotten.

BUT - don't ask me DETAILS because I can't remember. I can't quote from episodes even if I've seen them a dozen or more times, I can't even quote from LOTR and I love that book more than any other. So I'm a geek of very little brain, like Winnie the Pooh.

So.  What kind of Lady Geek are you?  Pass this on!

This is the second of my [info]samdean_otp Mini Bang arts, for [info]alwaysenduphere's dreamy story The Moon is a Piece of Me.
The master post is here, go read!
If you want a PDF version there is one on Mediafire here.
Herewith, the arty things.

The rest of the funstuff is under the cut....go looksee! )
Adrenalineshots has reminded me I should have explained my sources for the main wallpaper (slaps hand, bad girl!).  The background I used is called Cosmos collection by Funerium on Deviantart.  I loved it the moment I saw it, and when I read this story, it seemed perfect.  I've added some layer effects (using my own photos) the alter the quality of the light, and obviously, Sam, Dean and the Impala.  The title font is Mufaroo, downloaded from http://www.dafont.com/.

I think I may be suffering from sign up fever - maybe it's because Season 7 has been so much fun so far...who knows?
But this one is going to be an awesome challenge, not least in finding ways to get Dean abroad...

A fanworks challenge inspired by [livejournal.com profile] 50states_spn - but focusing on culture, traditions and myths from the rest of the world instead.
This is for non-American SPN fans to introduce the countries they come from - or simply for everyone to introduce a country they love.
