This is my life

Not embedded because... well, honestly, I don't know how.

Inception/Leverage mashup trailer.

This was amazing, guys! I can't find a feedback post for it, but it's by elena_hepburn, I hear, and it's been posted over at leverage.

Because I love lists!

+ Another prompt of mine got filled on the SGA Kinkmeme! Ronon, Gen, Worldbuilding. It's fantastic and by someone I know, and I have guesses, but that never ends well, so I shall simply sit on my hands until reveal.

+ Saw Despicable Me last weekend and enjoyed it. I do really wonder at the incredible number of kids movies that have abandoned/orphaned/adopted kids as main themes. WTAF, do the people writing these things have serious abandonment issues or what?

+ Looking forward (OMG SO MUCH) to The Sorcerer's Apprentice tonight! Every once in a while, I actually like Nic Cage, and this looks like so much fun.

+ Okay, yeah. So, White Collar's premiere really did it for me, in a way I was hoping Leverage was going to do, and didn't manage until the Parker episode. AND CAN I JUST SAY MY STUPID DVR RANDOMLY DIDN'T RECORD LEVERAGE TWO WEEKS RUNNING AND NOW I HAVE MISSED THE MOST RECENT ONE?! SO ANGY!!! >:(

+ Psych and Haven are still on my DVR for watching this weekend - as rewards for writing and betaing!

+ Interviews of team members for mcshep_work and mcshep_play have gone up on the team sites. Come check out what our awesome authors have to say! Also, any questions you want to ask here, I will include them on my own interview.

+ One McShep Match beta down, two in the works, two more when the stories get done and my own story to write. All before next Friday. D:

+ LJ is deleting and purging not only journals but all posts and comments by journals that haven't been logged into in two years. See bookshop's posts here and here if you don't get why that's distressing. SO. IS THAT 'IMPORTING COMMUNITY' FEATURE ON DREAMWIDTH TOTALLY DEAD YET? (Glad I imported my comments over.) ETA: And thanks to franzi1981 who pointed out that you're not considered inactive as long as you have content (more than a welcome post).

fiercelydreamed wrote pitch-perfect Leverage/White Collar crossover fic. It is the best thing ever. She wins the internet.

I Lie, I Cheat, I Steal (and I Just Don't Get Any Respect)

So, sabinetzin hosted A Ficathon Walks Into A Bar, and the Master List has gone up!

I wrote a ~2000 word fic for the prompt "Reid walks into a bar and meets... Hardison!" called The Clusterfuck Job, which is rough around the edges because I wrote it in a single afternoon at the absolutely last second, but I still sort of like it anyway.

Some that I've read and have liked:

zillah975 wrote Hope, Ronon Dex and Boromir meeting in a dream bar. Really nice feel for these characters.

demonqueen666 wrote One Drink to Forget, Another to Remember, Topher from Dollhouse and Snape meeting in a very unusual bar. This is one of my faves from the fest so far.

Cedara wrote Clandestine Meetings, Spencer Reid meets Mozzie in a bar. The premise is brilliant, the execution less so, but it's nice to think about.

596spark wrote At the Bookshop, Crowley meets Willow in a bookshop. Nice execution; Willow is a little spread for me (at times, she seems season six-ish, others, season two) but still a good premise and nicely written.

I've only read six, so reccing four of them is a pretty impressive ratio! Go forth and read crossovers! There's a a collection on AO3, too, though I don't think it's complete (as the Master List obviously is).

Oh, and since this is going to be a regular thing (YAY), join intoabar or intoabar if you're wanting to play next time.
