The first rule is, nobody talks about the rules

floranna tagged me on tumblr, that wretch, and since I don't tumblr, here goes on dreamwidth/livejournal.

Rules:

Rule 1: always post the rules
Rule 2: answer the questions the person who tagged you asked and make 10 new ones
Rule 3: tag 10 new people and link them
Rule 4: let them know you’ve tagged them

1. Your main fandom right now.

Avatar: the Last Airbender, but I've been reading a lot of Thor fics with Loki.  I am ashamed of this.

2. Recommend three pieces of fantastic fan fiction.

I'm a sadist, so one of of these is a WIP.  Sorry.

Avatar: the Last Airbender.:

Escapee by lizbee

So you're a traitor. Now what? AU from "The Boiling Rock" where Mai and Ty Lee escape with the others.

This fic is glorious!  It's one of the best Mai fics ever written, and Lizbee knows just how to handle Mai's uncertainty, and coming to grips with what she has done, and the roiling storm of emotions just under her stoic surface.

Eight Principles of Yong by psocoptera

 The pen is mightier than the sword, or how Zuko saves the day via the power of good penmanship.

Great characterization, wonderful world building, and Zuko being cool in a dweeby kind of way.  Sweet, a little sad, and a wonderful idea for how Zuko may have won over the Fire Nation people.

The Psychic Neal 'Verse by sholio (the WIP)

"He's some kind of secret government experiment?" Peter and his team have been trying to catch the elusive con artist Neal Caffrey for years. But Peter's search for Neal leads him to something else: a startling revelation about Neal's true nature.

In this fic, Sholio proves she has creepy powers to reach into my subconcious and pull out all the secret horrors and put them on paper.  She is a horrible person, and you need to reed this to be as miserable as I am.  (it's good misery).

3. Have you read any of my fics? If you have, what did you think about them?

Fishing for complements, are we?  I've read "Cell" and "In Silence."  I liked In Silence better, because "Cell" involves Zuko death right around the corner, and my baby!  And "In Silence is full of Hakoda and Zuko goodness.

4. Rain or snow?

Used to be, I would say rain, but I've been having terrible problems with mold allergies, and a good hard freeze really helps kill a lot of things off, so snow.

5. Blood or guts?

Blood.  Blood doesn't have to mean major organ damage.

6. The Most Meaningful Song Ever (right now?)

Good thing you specified.  It changes so often for me.   "Get Out Alive" by Three Days Grace.  I know nothing else about this band, at all.  I found it by chance, and now I'm using it for a Mai and Ty Lee vid.

7. Food you don’t want to live without.

Tomatoes. I love them.

8. Your computer’s name.

Eugenides.  My old iPod was named Irene.

9. The most understated book ever.

Understated?  I'm not sure what you mean.  Under-appreciated maybe?  I'm not much of a fan of understated literature to to tell the truth.  Understated is often code for written like a shopping list.  As for under-appreciated, the Queen's Thief books by Megan Whalen Turner are way under-appreciated, and everyone needs to read them, now.

10. Movie people that should forget even exists.

I can't think of any.  There was no movie called The Last Airbender, and M. Night Shyamalan certainly didn't direct it.
