New show on DVD time

Now that I’ve finished rewatching The West Wing, I returned to my pile of TV shows to watch on DVD, and the next up was Killjoys, which I never got to watch on TV, but figured might be something I’d enjoy and so got.

Two extremes, really

I was saddened to learn yesterday of Michelle Trachtenberg’s passing at only 39. I hadn’t watched Gossip Girl, so she’s always been frozen as Dawn, the youngest Scoobie, in my mind. And now, if the Buffy reboot ever gets off the ground, she won't be able to be a part of it in any capacity. But obviously for the people who knew and loved her, the loss is greatest.

The AO3 meme, as seen at [dreamwidth.org profile] musesfool

1. Most Hits: Comprehension Mansfield Park - Jane Austen, Henry Crafword/Fanny Price. His marriage and his sister's wedding help Henry to see more. 9,685 hits. Still absolutely the fic that I've written that's had the most impact.

2. Second Most Kudos: Extreme Action Sky High (2005), Warren Peace/Layla Williams. Fake-out make-out. (Layla’s idea.) 591 kudos. The film is 20 years old! Must rewatch this year.

3. Third Most Comments: As above. 22 comments.

4. Fourth Most Bookmarks:
When we were strangers (or five ways Layla and Warren never met)
Sky High (2005), Warren Peace/Layla Williams. Five ways Layla and Warren never met. 42 bookmarks.

5. Fifth Most Words: Be Careful…Always Dark Angel, Max Guevara/Alec McDowell. Two phrases. Two speakers. Different universes. 3.577 words (for me, that’s unthinkable these days.)

6. Fic With Fewest Words:
distance in your eyes Dark Angel, Logan Cale/Max Guevara, 51 words (it’s poetry!)

Aaand that reminds me that I still have fic that I need to repost here and at AO3, and before that I should probably post my three-sentence fills, none of which are over 3,500 words.

Enough developments to keep me hooked, and by switching from character to character, you moved on to something you’d find more engaging (than blokes angsting in the dark) quickly enough.

Belatedly, The Wheel of Time

The Wheel of Time - 2.1 A Taste of Solitude

I always intended to get back to The Wheel of Time and then sort of decided that I would once I’d finished getting through The Rings of Power. I suspect I won’t be done by the time the third series arrives. Anyway, I still haven’t read the books, and haven’t been much spoiled.
