(I wanted to do so much more - but ran out of time :( - Hardison is awesome and deserved more)

So, my super secret project for Con 1 has actually now been started (like, two people, other then my parents know what said project is - I am thankful for this, as it means there's less people to notice I failed....if I do ;)) It's rather crazy, but we'll see how it turns out.

I leave work, get on a train with all my stuff and get to Birmingham thursday - then I head home again monday morning, and back to work tuesday. If anyone is going, and wants to meet up (who isn't already staying with me ;)) I'm in the hotel for friday and saturday night, so I'll be around pretty much the whole time - and am doing the meet and greet friday (GOLD ticket - I couldn't not ;))

I have to decide which job to apply for at work (well not at work, but with work) - I'm qualified for both, but they're at the same place, and different pay grades, and I don't know if I would actually be given a proper management job (though the boy is like 'you have a MASTERS, that gets most people management jobs, even if it's not in a relevant degree' - thing is, with the way they seem to work internal jobs at work, I don't think that would work and ARGH) *breathes*

Will be deciding either way by end of day monday, so will see.

The writer's sign ups for the reverse big bang are open at thebigbangjob :D - tis all exciting.

*hugs you all* Hope everything is good.

So, to spare you all, this is going to be behind a cut. Basically, this is going to be me rambling about the shows that I like, and ensembles. The ones that work, the ones that don't; why they work and when they don't. Mainly, these shows are ensemble or focus on two characters.

Shows discussed ,even if only briefly: Andromeda, Babylon 5, Battlestar Galactica, Castle, Criminal Minds, Dark Angel, due South, Firefly, Jonathan Creek, Leverage, Numb3rs, Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis, Star Trek (all of them ;)), Torchwood, Xena


(note before hand - added now, because I have actually reread - and am paranoid, and don't want this meta/ramble to sound all knowing - it's all my opinion, and what works for me - I know a lot of things don't work for me, but work for other people and vice versa - I am reminded of that a lot when watching stuff with my family.
So, what I say under the cut? It's all my opinion, on what works for me - I may be wrong, you might disagree with me, and that's fine. I just wanted to put this out there. Feel free to throw things at me if you disagree.)

( thinky thoughts )

Anyone on my friends list who is also a member of all the comms I just pimped on - I AM SO SORRY ;)

So the Leverageland Challenge 15 was to recast the crew - and at first I thought 'I know I'll genderbend them', then I thought, no, 'I'll switch POC and Non', and then because I am crazy I decided to do merge the two(aka Hardison is a girl and white, Eliot is a girl and a POC etc).

The pictures are behind a cut to save people's friends' lists.

So, as of tomorrow morning I am off to Scotland for two weeks to hunt chambered cairns, which may sound easy but really isn't, grid references lie, also many of them were last recorded in the 1980s..... - well I get two weeks of lovely scenery and a tent the size of a small house (the new tent, it is scary *g*). I may be online in passing, but I won't be around to answer anything until the 20th.

I hope you all have a good time while I'm away and that there's a break in the bad *sends good wishes and hugs to everyone who have had a bad time recently* - also, an early Happy Birthday to azarsuerte I hope you have a lovely day :)

First, small community promo - the wonderful charlies_dragon (with a tiny bit of help from me) is running thebigbangjob again this year, which for those who don't know, is the Leverage Big Bang challenge. If you're interested, details are here, author signups are here and artist signups are here :)

This is me promoting the wonderful fic written by not_from_stars for au_bigbang, for which I made art - details below to entice you in ;)

Title: What Once Was Lost
Author: not_from_stars
Fandom: Primeval
Warning: Spoilers for S2 and S3 and character deaths.
Word Count: 23,230
Summary: When Taylor Craig was 11 years old, two very amazing men saved her life from a place that she didn't understand. Sixteen years later, she presented herself to the head of the ARC, James Lester, only be told that both men had died shortly after their rescue of her. After doing some investigations through anomalies on her own, Taylor comes to realize that the world changed in too many ways since then and all of what was wrong would need to be rectified -- but she was also positive that only her two heroes could help them with that. So with her own determination and drive -- and the wordless support of Lester -- Taylor sets on a course to change time and bring the men back to where they belong.
