Fic: (no title yet)

It's my birthday! And, in proper hobbit fashion, I have a small present for my flist: a new Illya vignette. (I seem to have quite the tendency to write sleepybye!Illya oneshots... is that weird?)

I could blame credit so many people for this one, so I'll keep it to the basics - John Masefield, Norman Hudis and David McCallum for that snippet of "Cargoes" in the Yo-Ho-Ho And A Bottle Of Rum Affair; JRR Tolkien for the Elvish language and alphabet; and my mother, for making me learn and recite poetry from the age of seven. It's hard to believe, now, that I ever disliked it. Thanks, Mom!

Title: (no title yet, that's always the hardest part for me. Suggestions, pretty please?)
Summary: Illya has a new book to read.
Notes: Gen, 380 words. Pre-series by several years.

Meme: TV Shows I've Seen

Ganked from cleothemuse , with adaptations from jackwabbit and a few of my own.

There was this insanely long list of TV shows, with instructions to bold the ones I'd seen three or more episodes of, and underline the ones I'd seen all of. Being me, I'm also going to italicize those I've seen most of - more than a season or two, straight through. And add any outstanding missing ones, like MFU. And delete the ones I've never seen at all. If you want the original list, go to Cleo's post for today.

(I'll tell you right now one show I haven't yet seen that I know won't be on here - Sapphire and Steel! I finally got over to the library branch that has it on DVD! Assignments 2, 3, 4, and 6, on my shelf right now! On a related topic, can anyone point me to a good place for NCIS screencaps? Seriously, it's relevant.)

( List under here... )

The only one on the list I haven't seen, but want to, is MST3K. And I'm probably blanking on several shows I've seen all or most of, but it was a while ago...
