I Feel Like Making an Entry of Randomness, Apparently

[fae_boleyn]

So, first bit, I'm also stealing that WIP meme that everyone seems to be doing...

Tudors
Standing Outside the Fire
Spanish Pride, English Prejudice
Souls Run In Circles
Snapshots of a Royal Family
Words We Could Never Find
So Just Pull The Trigger
See You In My Dreams
Queens
The Falcon and the Mare (I don't think this or Queens is going anyplace)

Inception
When The World Stops Turning (I think I'll be changing the title for posting)
Kamikaze Airplanes
Untitled A/E (fuck I need a real title for this at some point)
Illumination
New Kids In Town
Never Left Behind (Inception and Burn Notice)
That It May Be Lost (limbo!fic that I will probably never finish)
Lovesongs (They Kill Me) [kink meme fill began with the best intentions, probably not going anywhere]

A Moment To Be Real (with primary fandoms specified)
Gemini (Whoniverse, Charmed)
Off the Grid (Primeval, NCIS)
Rules Of Succession (Er... more set in the general 'verse than a particular fandom)
Tower of London (Pretty much just Whoniverse)
Alternative States (NCIS, Fringe, will probably be scrapped)
Sins of the Father (NCIS, Stargate SG1, likely condensed into a oneshot)
The English Job/TEJ version 2 (there are two versions of this, I don't think it's going to ever be done, but Whoniverse and Charmed)
A Moment of Understanding (Primeval, Whoniverse, this is a tiny oneshot and I should be able to finish it, WTF?)

On an almost totally unrelated subject, what do you guys want to see from the four weddings in my upcoming A/A/E kink meme fill? I'm thinking the reality ones between the three couples my triad can break off into will be fairly simple, but if anyone has any suggestions on details (like clothes for example, I am not a clothes horse and don't know where to begin looking for that stuff) I am very open to hearing it. I do not want to be guilty of the Did Not Do The Research trope. (And I think I just figured out how to make word links... Wicked.) Beyond that, I've only been to three weddings in my life, and of them I was only really paying attention to one (the first I was too young, the second was outdoors in October and it was bloody cold). Never been the type to daydream about my own, so I haven't thought very much about weddings before.

And for something totally different, be glad your father was not Charles I, Holy Roman Emperor. He was just a little too concerned about his son Philip's sex life - telling him to restrict how often he slept with his wife, for one thing. Granted, Charles' uncle died as a teenager and the records suggest it was overexertion with his new wife that helped do it (and he wasn't the first of his family to have this little issue), but still. Between that and the other Trastamara problem of inbreeding, not to mention the Plantagenets' tendency to kill each other and the Tudors' struggles to have healthy kids boys, it's a wonder these royal families lasted as long as they did! The French look like they did slightly better, but their no female-line inheritance (not even the sons of royal daughters) meant that the line kept moving to different branches of the family. This may have helped.

Pardon the random geekery at the end here.

I thought I had a lot of WIPs! I'm grateful that I'm only in one fandom, haha xD This is why I'm fandom-monogamous, I can only cope with one at a time.

[fae-boleyn.livejournal.com]

I could never be fandom-monogamous, my mind just doesn't work that way. That said, it's not as bad as it looks - several of the fics would be oneshots if I ever finished them, and others will probably never be done and I've basically accepted that.

[adelaide-rain.livejournal.com]

I nearly always write one-shots, but same as you, a lot of them will probably never be finished. I usually just end up taking the good bits out and sticking them in another fic ^^;

[wattle-neurotic.livejournal.com]

I keep seeing this meme *g* but if I did it myself, it would be 'Draft' or 'Untitled' all the way :P

I still need to watch The Tudors, is it just four seasons long? Royal history is fascinating more often than not *g*

[fae-boleyn.livejournal.com]

Four seasons, though if you're looking for historical accuracy... Don't look at the show. I love it though, very well acted and usually well-written.

I usually have a fairly up to date list on my FF profile page, but I definitely don't have as many as this. Jeez. Missing from my list is whatever EDQ month I'm on because I'm either not working on it or flying through it so fast that updating the profile page is pointless. I have some songfics I want to write that I haven't started and plot bunnies that need to be dealt with, but I tend to start writing and carry it through to the end.

Well, some of these will probably linger on my flash forever and never get finished, so it's not quite as bad as it seems. :)
