I didn't really follow snowflake this year but a few friends did this one and I thought - why not.

Challenge #14

Fandom Scavenger Hunt

Looking around you, post a pic or description of:

1. a fannish item
Hard to avoid in this house...

This is our mantlepiece

2. something round
Snacking...

3. something that is your favorite colour
Weirdly there isn't really anything in our living room that is my fave colour so here's a snippet of our curtains. Not keen on the green but the red and dark red are nice.

4. the last game you played (video, phone, table top, etc.)
I was going to say I don't play games but since a few weeks ago I got hooked on Wordle...

5. a book you are currently reading
No books on the go at the moment but I'm re-reading this at the moment

Soooo good! If your haven't read it, click HERE.

6. album art of the first song that comes up on shuffle

Such a good album, and I love his voice.

7. the last movie you watched
At the cinema - Matrix Resurrections

fabuleuses-affiches-pour-la-sortie-inedite-de-matrix-en-imax_1112323

On telly just watched Men in Black International (again)

8. TV show you're currently watching
It's cute!

Watch on YouTube

9. the homescreen, lockscreen, or desktop wallpaper from your device
A fox I did for my friend Lois's birthday

It's been a while so I thought I'd snaffle this meme from

dizzojay.

1. Which book would you consider the best book you’ve ever read and why?
Best is an interesting criteria - best in what sense? Literary merit, readability, excitement factor? I'll just go for my all time favourite and still my most read book - Lord of the Rings. My uncle lent me his copy when I was eleven, I read it almost non stop for a few days, finished it and immediately started over. I bought my own copy as soon as I could and carried on reading it several times a year for many years until that copy fell apart.

Meme format/guidelines from

dev_earl.

Just trying to stay alive on LJ - where is everyone, these days, huh?

Stolen from brutti_ma_buoni, a 31 day meme. I'm trying to decide whether to post every day and fail, or just post randomly. Oh the excitement, hey?

Anyhow, here's today's two answered questions.

1 What are the sexiest names and the least sexy names for a man?

I'm not sure I have a sexy list, but I definitely have an UNsexy list - including Tim/Timothy, Pete/Peter, Roger (snortle), William, Archibald, Arthur (unless you're King Arthus in which case you get a pass), and a whole bunch of those Victorian/Edwardian names that they resurrected from Anglo Saxon times and somehow tarnished forever with their side whiskers and startched shirts.

2 What are the sexiest names and the least sexy names for a woman?

This is harder - there are names I like and don't like but I don't necessarily think of any of them as being sexy.
So I like Rebecca, Roisin, Eleanor, Hazel, Francesca, Genevieve. I tend not to like misspelled made-up meaningless names, or really old fashioned names like Ermintrude or the like. For some reason I've never liked Susan even though it's my middle name, and I now feel bad about that becuase I mentioned it one day in front of my Dad and found out he chose it!! Having said that, I always liked Susanna.

But it kind of depends on the person who owns the name. There are some names I'd never want to give a child but that totally suit a specific person. So basically, no hard and fast rules here!

The rest of the questions are below in case anyone wants to snag the whole list

A bit of fun snaffled from

goss and using their adaptation:
With added fun factor of guessing what words the M pictures represent

Rules - Every answer must start with the first letter of your middle name.

Animal:

Girl's name:

Boy's name:

Color:

Food:

Something you wear:

Drink:

Place:

Restaurant:

Reason to be late:

Job title:

Animal: Manatee

Girl's name: Marie (I went with M because I never use my actual middle names)

Boy's name: (El) Mariachi. A little cheat to use a pic of the gorgeous Antonio.

Color: Magenta

Food: Mashed potato (yum!)

Something you wear: Mask

Drink: mango juice

Place: Malham Cove (Yorkshire)

Restaurant: Miller's Fish & Chips

Reason to be late: Memory malfunction

Job title: mhizha - which is Shona for artist! Technically I don't have a job but I do get paid occasionally for painting so...

I saw a couple of EW articles listing top 40 episodes out of the 300, or trying to rank every episode (meep!), so I thought I'd have a go at a top 40. Then I discovered I can't limit it to just 40, so mine's a top 50.

I'm a bit sad that so many of my faves are early seasons, but at least there are some on the list that are more recent. I tried to rank them within the list but that was too hard - so these aren't really in any particular order of preference.

So here it is, my top 50 Supernatural episodes up to and including 300

( Read more... )

I need some incentive to write all the things so...this (snagged from

fanspired) sounds like fun :)

1. Make a list of fifteen characters and keep it to yourself. (Done!).

2. Ask friend list to post questions in the comments.

For example:

1,9, and 15 are chosen by prophecy to save the world from 4. Do they succeed?

Under what circumstances might 5 and 14 fall in love?

3. After everyone has stopped asking questions, round up all the prompts and answer them.

ETA: You can leave multiple prompts... not limited to one.

Stolen from

fufaraw on LJ

Pick some numbers, I'll answer those questions.

1. Team Free Will 1.0 or 2.0?

2. Would you rather be a nephilim or an angel?

3. Michael!Dean or Lucifer!Sam?

4. Crowley or Lucifer?

5. Lebanon, Kansas, or Sioux Falls, South Dakota?

6. What color do you think Cas’ wings are?

7. What color do you think Jack’s wings are?

8. Plot episodes or Monster of the Week episodes?

9. Favorite season(s)?

10. Least favorite season(s)?

11. Scoobynatural or The French Mistake?

12. Most memorable episode?

13. Opinions on John?

14. Favorite female character(s)?

15. One thing you wish to happen before the show ends?

16. Be stuck in The Empty or Purgatory?

17. Death 1.0 or Billie?

18. Favorite opening title card?

19. Best possible ending to the show in your opinion?

20. Should Sam get a dog? If so, what should the name be?

21. One thing that irks you in the show?

22. Scariest episode?

23. Worst death (sadness-wise, cinematically, morally, personally, etc)?

24. If you could meet Jared, Jensen, Misha, or Alexander, who and why?

25. Gender swap, switching bodies, human Baby episode?

When you see this, post five things that make you happy.

I've just done this quickly, based on what I'm into right now.

In no particular order:

Sunny days, especially in winter. There's something about the quality of the light in the winter months that makes the sun seem extra-special. It's great for photos too.

Snuggling up in my blanket to read a good fanfic. It might be one I've read before or a new one from a favourite author, or a new author altogether. The adventure is never-ending.

Getting nice comments on something I've created - that's such a lovely feeling, to find someone likes something that I've made. I don't care if it's art or fic, feebdack always makes me smile.

Buying art supplies. I think I might be addicted, but I love ordering new watercolours, or paint brushes, or sketchpads. Even though I have enough to set up my own shop, and 90% of my stocks won't get used because I'm scared of messing it up.

Finding a new artist to admire and be inspired by. Actually, this one is a bit of a two edged sword, because there is always that moment where you look at someone's amazing art and are filled with the urge to go and try to recreate it, while knowing whatever you do won't be anywhere near as good. But to hell with feelings of inadequacy! Nothing ventured, nothing gained, and it's been pretty interesting seeing that a lot of these artists I admire have the exact same feelings when looking at another artist's work.

So, what makes you happy right now?
