... of metaphors, metonyms, and anthropomorphisms -- in short, a sum of human relations, which have been enhanced, transposed, and embellished poetically and rhetorically, and which after long use seem firm, canonical, and obligatory to a people: truths are illusions about which one has forgotten that is what they are; metaphors which are worn out and without sensuous power; coins which have lost ...

Review of 2x08:

... has been The Once and Future Queen, which dealt with Morgana's reactions to what was happening about as much as it could have given the limited screen time of an episode. We already have canonical aknowledgement that they are best friends (and it's pretty obvious that Gwen may be Morgana's only friend, currently, aside from Merlin - and Morgana knows Gwen better than she knows Merlin, for ...

long post is long

... has three requests and four offers. it seems highly likely that i'd be assigned this one, particularly as i signed up to write two of the main characters who also happen to be the main canonical pairing (eventually). in summation, i might be writing something i'm relatively comfortable tackling, or something i'd really like to tackle. or, more likely, one of the four fandoms i haven't actually ...

... or sexual relationships so those are the least important part of fandoms, for me. Graphic sex scenes are okay but I don't actually need them! There's not much that I dislike as long as it's a canonical possibility; character death, gore, and sadism are all A-okay with me, depending on the fandom. Here are the specifics! (Or, as you will see, the not-quite-specifics.) The Lions of Al-Rassan : ...

I'd like Theresa femslash if that's what you'd like to write -- the other canonical female character is Fate, which would be interesting and cool , but if you want to write her with an original character or someone from history, that would be cool too!

Tuesday night I did a horrible, horrible thing, but this story requires an introduction. A few months ago I got a Toshiba NB205 , and it's really great. It's small, has keys that are fun to type on, and gets 9 hours of battery life. It also came with Windows XP, so I was happy not having to deal with Windows Vista.
