general opinions:

Okay, I promise I haven't been ignoring you, or trying to drag out the suspense.  I've just been overwhelmed.  Mom's still getting over pneumonia, and I'm in the middle of doing student teaching for the first time this semester.  It's fun, but exhausting.

Anyway, the answers!  Here are all of the ones that were not guessed:

2. Dr. Nora Barlow (the Leviathan series by Scott Westerfeld)
3. Tiana (the Princess and the Frog)
5. The Wizard Howl (Howl's Moving Castle and sequels by Diana Wynn Jones)
7. Eugenides (the Queen's Thief series by Megan Whalen Turner)

I didn't really expect anybody to guess 2, but I was astonished no one guessed 5, and also that anyone did guess 6 as Sabriel (yay!).  Anyway, everybody should go out and read the Queen's Thief series, now.  Your life is not complete until you do.

Also, I've been watching this video of Jason Brown ice skating at the US nationals to MC Hammer's "Cant Touch this" on repeat.  It's about all my brain can handle: www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyIfLB_MpA4

I have a list of ten different characters from ten different fandoms, and no matter which way you mix them, there will be crack.  I want you to give me two numbers from one to ten, and I will give you why the two characters who correspond to those numbers fell in love/are in a relationship/are sleeping together/slept together that one time while drunk.  Then, I would really like it if you could reply with a guess as to who you picked.  On the fourteenth, I will reveal what numbers go with what characters.

1. Mozzie (White Collar) floranna 
2. ???
3. Tiana (The Princess and the Frog)
4. Mai (Avatar: the Last Airbender) guessed by chordatesrock 
5. ???
6. Sabriel (The Old Kingdom series by Garth Nix) guessed by anonymous
7. ???
8. Alicia Florrick (The Good Wife) guessed by floranna 
9. Loki  (I reserve the right to pick and choose my canons) guessed by danatheleseus 
10. Neville Longbottom (Harry Potter) guessed by luunyscarlet 



Things you know so far: 5 is not Tahno, and there are no Korra characters on this list.  There is an A:tLA character, but it isn't Zuko.  8 is from a non-fantasy American prime time TV show.  2, 6, 7 and 5 all come from YA speculative fiction books that I have reviewed on this blog.  5 also stars in an anime movie with a wide American release.  6 has seven bells, and fights the dead and the people who raise the dead.

Clues:

7 and 10: Both these boys like to keep their light under a bushel. Also, a high strung young man like 7 could use a gardener like 10 to tend his fragile flower self.
2 and 9: As a woman of the biological sciences, 2 is absolutely fascinated by the many strange and varied creatures 9 manages to expel from his divine hoo-ha.
5 and 8: 8 has absolutely no problem with heartless men, in fact after what she's been through with her husband and former boss, you might say it's her type. 5 meanwhile, has never been able to resist no nonsense women, especially when they leave his hair care products alone.
6 and 7: 7 loves tall dark and terrifying women, which come to think of it, so do I, and it describes three of the five women on here. You might say they ring my bell. 6 likes her men smart. Very very smart. And give her a hand, she is used to dealing with royal petulance.
2 and 7: Let it never be said that 7 doesn't go for smart women, past all point of good sense, in fact. As for 2, he uh, stole her heart. Besides, there's nothing better to a woman like her than a guy who lives in a library. Unless he lived in a zoo. Or a bioengeneered airship.
1 and 8: Normally 1 doesn't like to get that close to governmental types, but he's made exceptions before for awesome women such as 8, and he's more convinced of the evil of government employees than of politicians anyway. And after all of the backroom deals she has seen, and the corruption and callousness of politicians, lawyers, and government officials, that hurts people and ruins lives, after all the ways she has learned to game the system, his conspiracy theories about fake moon landings seem charmingly naive.
6 and 3: 6 is just the perfect person to deal with 3's voodoo problem, and she's dealt with far worse things than a little slime mucus. Plus, as 6 knows, belles and bandoliers just go together.

A while back, I ran a drabble meme for the victims of the April 2011 tornadoes in Northern Alabama.  Back then, $2.99 vgifts, the proceeds of which went to the relief effort.  I would like to run something similar how, however, there is no such vgift.  Instead, please send me screenshots of your receipts from the Red Cross.  Three dollars buys you a 100 word drabble.  Six dollars buys you either a 200 word drabble, or two 100 word drabbles, your choice.  Nine dollars buys you a 300 word drabble, or a 200 word drabble, and a 100 word drabble, or three 100 word drabbles.  And so on.  I will write as many drabbles as you give money tot he Red Cross.  There is no limit to how much you all can get me to write through this meme.  I will write for Avatar: the Last Airbender/Legend of Korra, Harry Potter, or White Collar, and all of my previously established AUs are open.

How to make a request:

Comment here with a link to a screenshot of your donation receipt. and how much you donated.
Give me a breakdown of how you want your drabbles divided, including word length and prompt.
Requests should include the character or characters you want to see, any ships you want, and a one word prompt.  If you want the story set in any of my established AUs, please make a note.

Example Request:

Receipt: http://i1002.photobucket.com/albums/af149/attackfishscales/flowerpots.gif (we'll all pretend that this isn't a gif of Zuko and Iroh hiding in flowerpots for this example, okay?) I donated $9.
Prompts: 200 words - Mai/Katara - Knives, and 100 words -Hufflepuff Zuko AU, Toph - justified.

Rules:

As ever, no Ty Zula, NC-17, incest, ships where one party is much older or younger than the other(s), rape, or other people's OCs

Come on, it hit an elementary school and a hospital.  We've got to do something.

I know very little about some of the people on my friends list. Some people I know relatively well. But here's a thought: why not take this opportunity to tell me a little something about yourself. Any old thing at all. Just so the next time I see your name I can say: "Ah, there's Parker ...she likes money and cereal." I'd love it if everyone who's friended me did this. (Yes, even you people who I know really well.) Then post this in your own journal [only if you feel inclined]. In return, ask me anything you'd like to know about me and I'll give you an answer*.

*Providing it's answerable/suitable for public posting.

Stolen from dungeonwriter 

Name a fandom and I'll tell you which character I most likely:

1. Want as my mentor
2. Bake cupcakes for
3. Lend my books to
4. Put thumbtacks on the chair thereof
5. Have a crush on
6. Pack up and leave if they moved next door
7. Vote for President
8. Pick as my partner in a buddy movie
9. Marry
10. Want as my boss
11. Sue
12. Want as my best friend

This looks like I can answer with my cell phone keyboard!  (On a side note, please forgive my more numerous than usual spelling mistakes in this.  I don't have spellcheck on my phone, and my spelling is lamentable at the best of times.)

Give me a character and I'll tell you a piece of my personal headcanon. Any fandom is welcome here, provided that I am reasonably familiar with it.

We're just over a day away from the deadline at avatar_500 for prompt 49, Lake, and we have only one entry.  So, to prove that I am not above using bribery, for anybody who writes and posts a fill for this round to the community before the deadline (Saturday, April 7, 10:00 PM, MDT), I will drabble up an answer to any one Avatar: the Last Airbender/Legend of Korra prompt they give me here at this post.  This includes all of my existing AUs (excepting Ice Flows Through) as well as unrelated prompts.  Or, I will make a 400x600 pixel banner for any Avatar: the Last Airbender/Legend of Korra fanfic (excepting  NC-17) written by the requester that they ask me to.  (Please provide a link).  Furthermore, after the deadline, I will do the same thing for anybody who writes and posts to the community a fill for the next biweekly prompt, Return.  And yes, that means if you post a fic for each, you get two requests.

A few rules-

No Ty Zula
No NC-17
No incest
No ships where one party is much older or younger than the other(s)
No rape

Information on posting can be found here.

I'm not asking for much, just 100 to 500 words.  Good luck.


LAKE:

Piandao - Fanfare for c3childs 
Blind Sukka Spawn forlavanyasix 

RETURN:

Kori/Ty Lee - The Kyoshi guard captures the naughty assassin for lavanyasix 
Act of Providence - Avatar!Zuko AU for c3childs, who asked for "Ozai finds a genie in a bottle."  I also wrote her two short gag takes.

I am the only Jew down in Jewville not hungover today, but I have to get in on the Purim fun somehow, so meme! Post the name of any character from any of my fandoms, including my OCs, and I will tell you how they got drunk, who they were with, and what they're doing about the inevitable fallout/pounding head of doom.

Meme closed.

Ask me my Top Five Whatevers. Fannish or literary or otherwise. Any top fives. Doesn't matter what, really! Fandoms, ice cream flavours, cartoon moments, women/men in my fandoms, OTPs, ideal holiday destinations, goals for the future, celebrity crushes, books I wish would be made into movies, love songs, anything else you might want to know. And I will answer them all in comments/in a new entry.
