Snowflake Challenge #3

Challenge #3

In your own space, put some favorite characters into an AU, fuse some favorite canons together, talk about your favorite AU/fusion tropes, or tell us why AU/fusions aren’t your cup of tea. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.


Ultimately I don't mind cross-over fics.  However they need to have "a good reason".  I don't like ones of people just "bumping into" each other, then having fun and going on their way.  I suppose, as I like sci fi it's easy as there can be a real inventive reason that the people all get together ... but, I do need that reason.

I am also "boring" as basically any pairings I like I don't like seeing the individuals with other people, whether in their own show, or not.

I have read a couple of Voyager (Janeway/Chakotay) and Stargate SG1 (O'Neill/Carter) crossovers ... which both have good story lines, as well as leading both couples to progress as pairings.  However, I would love to read some more!  Those 2 pairings have a lot in common - sci fi travellers, as well as the difficulty of conflicting ranks within the military.

Snowflake Challenge #4

Challenge #4

In your own space, make a list of things that you wish existed in fandom or elsewhere, and/or that you'd like someone to create or do for you. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.


As you can see from my icon I would love seeing more animated icons ... I can't make them, so it would be nice to see other options.

I would love to see long fics in the fandoms I follow ... but I don't just want a fic extended by lines of gratuitous sex & violence ... it would be good to see longer complex stories.  I know there are already a lot out there, for which I am so thankful, but it would be nice to see some more!

Same Department - Different Clinic (s)

Yesterday I ended up working a 6 hour day, and hate to admit how exhausted I was when I finished.  However the good news was that I was fine during the actual work ... so I shall focus on that good news.  One of the physiologists I work with is visiting his family in India, so I have less clinics for a couple of weeks.  however yesterday I was asked by another physiologist if I could be her nurse/charperone for 2 different clinics with her.  So, that was my yesterday ... rather than urology (as normal). I spent the morning working with oesophageal testing. and the afternoon working with lower bowels.  So, similar, but different.

Today I worked, which is also unusual as it's a Friday, but the clinic was going really well, until I had one patient fall over a bin  (and they are almost 3' high) ... his excuse was that he was wearing a mask which meant he couldn't see where he was going.  So, what had he been doing for the last 22 months?

Now here and its raining (so no walking), so I doing some LJ stuff, and maybe even catch up on the Snowflake challenge.  But before I do that ...


6. How often do you binge-watch TV shows?
I tend to watch & re-watxh DVD's so it's quite often that I watch through a full series.

7. Have you ever saved an animal's life? How about a person's life?
I don't know if it counts, but when DJ caught strangles I spent the worst day of his illness standing with him holding a buket of water and continually wetting his lips to get water into him.  I don't know if he would not have survived that day without me, but seeing someone suffer it was nice to fee I was helping him - both physically, and emotionally of keeping him company. 
I work in a hospital - so hopefully my help has been part of quite of few people getting better!

Another Icon Challenge

I have signed up again for 100fandomicons ... so hopefully I shall get that done in the year. I managed it this year, so hopefully I shall manage that again this year. Anyway, the challenge is under the cut -
