Registration Form 2010

Preferred first name: Lyn or Erilyn

Reader/Writer/Vidder/All of the Above: Reader

My current primary fandom: that's a tricky question for the last year. Maybe my gay soap operas (especially One Life to Live and As the World Turns)? Still poking around in bandom and American Idol (though not reading much fic). Glee. Who-verse. Sherlock, though haven't had much time to read the fic.

My current secondary fandom(s): Other shows that I'm watching (but not necessarily involved in fannishly at this stage) include NCIS (Original Flavour and Extra Gay LA), White Collar, Bones, Criminal Minds, Castle, Supernatural. Most of which can be summarised as "...and together they fight crime (or evil)". Yeah, I don't know either. Oh, and Big Bang Theory.

Fandom(s) I’ve broken up with: Torchwood (the show). House and I aren't really seeing much of each other lately either. I tend to never fully break-up with fandoms - sooner or later, I'm re-reading the fic (though whether I'm re-watching the source material is a different matter).

Fandom(s) I just can’t quit: Can you get a restraining order against Smallville?

OTP forever: Kyle/Oliver, Luke/Reid, Jim/Blair, Bodie/Doyle, Wes/Gunn, Fraser/RayK, Clark/Lex, Mckay/Sheppard, Mulder/Krycek, my sparkly popboys, Frank/Gerard, Pete/Patrick, Kirk/Spock (and really, if I stop focusing on fannish slash pairings, Jack/Jennifer from Days were possibly my first OTP, and I still have love for them. Sonny/Brenda from General Hospital too).

OTP sometimes: Morgan/Reid, Jack/Ianto, Chris/Vin, Mac/Victor, Dan/Casey,Van/Deaq, Qui-Gon/Obi-Wan, Seregil/Alec, Alan/Billy, Brian/Justin, I could keep going and going...

OTP never, baby, OT3/OTTeam/OT?: hmmm...Nine/Rose/Jack

My comment on slash is: To quote Evolution (a very underrated movie) - "there's always time for lube!"

I like slash because: it's hot, and while I can get good het (sometimes, okay, maybe occasionally) from mainstream media, we're still kinda screwed on the gays (*shakes fist at soap opera producers*).

I discovered slash by: same story as always - needed more Krycek fic (had run out of gen and het), so I cautiously started checking out the ones labelled slash and found that a) they didn't (necessarily) involve cutting/bloodplay like I'd assumed and b) HOLY FUCK GIMME MORE.

My bullet proof kink: don't know why, but I love wake up married/arranged marriage/pretending to be married stories, coming out/getting outed, pining

My major league squick: chan, incest

My guilty pleasure: wallow fics - where they're not very well written, but are adequate enough so that I don't get too annoyed while immersing myself in OOC-ness and over-the-top melodrama.

I first found out about (my first) g/t from/by:

arysteia and

china_shop when it was born. I couldn't make it to the 1st one but have been to the 2nd, 3rd and 5th.

Coke/Coke Zero/Sprite/Juice: Coke Zero, Coke, Sprite

Tea/Coffee: No thanks

Indian/Thai/Italian: All of the above (and both places we ate at last year were good)

I would like 15 Minutes of Fame: when do I not?

I will use it to: I already have a Glee pimp video mostly finished :) And not just cause I've done something music-related at every GT I've been too (though it is nice to continue the trend).

Can you get a restraining order against Smallville?

No. No, you can't. No, you really fucking can't.

And after I sang a Hallelujah that it'd finally been cancelled, I hear those bitches at CW are stringing along the zombie!faithful, saying they'll renew it if the ratings are good enough... Where's Lex Luthor in a purple battlesuit when you need him?

Smallville got cancelled? Did they claim the 2010-11 season will be the last? I am unconvinced - I feel that show will be screening for the cockroaches after the apocalypse.

They *totally* announced that the tenth season would be the last. Tom Welling commented on it several times. But they're already hedging and the frickin' season hasn't even started.

And yeah, Clark will be fifty years old and by all rights Kingdom Come Superman (ie widowed and retired) and he'll still be capeless and whining about his angst.

I will never forget my mother's horror at learning that Smallville was still going (not sure if this was during season 8 or 9), and when I followed up that revelation with the news that Clark still wasn't Superman, dad was all "he always was kind of retarded".

♥ my parents ♥

It's a parallel universe where the ship landed upside down, and baby!Clark was dropped on his head?

Maybe it's a parallel universe where EVERYONE got dropped on their heads at birth?

No, seriously, that could explain a lot...

Also, because I was procrastinating about some other stuff, I threw together a 20 minute reel of some of the Sherlock/John highlights from the first of the new Sherlock movies. It's grown so big so quick that I feel it should have some representation at G_T, so if there's time + no one else wants to do it, I can show that.

I was *considering* doing an "all mediums" Sherlock Holmes... We could cut it into that???

This is just something I've thrown together today, so I'm not deeply attached to what I've got. Let me know what sort of thing you're thinking of, content and length, if you want a hand :) I've got the Robert Downey Jr movie too.

Do you like the new Sherlock? I love it, and so do my parents + sister. She rang me twenty minutes into first movie to tell me I had to watch them asap, as I hadn't yet.

The other presentation that I really want to do (time-depending) is actually related to the soaps I've gotten hooked on, but that's way harder to make than doing a bunch of clips from a single movie :)

If you don't have time to put together an all-mediums Sherlock Holmes, there's always this songvid to The Boys are Back (http://community.livejournal.com/sherlock2009/124802.html) :D

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! RL LOLage!

That doesn't get you out of having to rewatch with me.

A good bits version even more tightly modded than the SG-1.

Tightly modded with LOADS of alcohol. I'm only doing it for the ~~Lex~~ lols.

If it's for the Lex, lols, alcoholz, let's do it in the hols. (I'm a poet and I didn't know it!)

I'll be home, you can phone in sick as/if required... Thus are evil genii born.

When are your hols?

Week before and week after g/t. I'm in Auckers for a conference the first few days, but home the rest.

It may be a sign that I haven't had enough sleep but I can't read your subject line without snickering.

I can't read it without hearing it in Reid's voice :)

I'm SO disappointed that the youtube vids of Reid's best lines were taken down because they would've made an awesome mini-manifesto for get_together.

I've got .flv files saved of 1-3 (not sure if she did anymore after that). It's a shame that she added such loud music though, makes it hard to hear some of the dialogue.

Oh cool, I'll have to get a copy off you then. I think it may be time to invest in another portable hard drive so I can bring one along to get_together this year...

Yeah, the music was a bit too much :-/

+ Best Lines zipfile (http://www.erilyn.com/other/bestlines.zip) - 17 meg

Thanks!

OMG Lyn! I can't believe As The World Turns is almost over *epic sad-face*

I don't understand what you mean. The show ended on Friday when Reid drove off in the car. Then everyone lived happily ever after (and Katie dumped Chris once he was better for being a total idiot), John Dixon became Chief of Staff and hooked back up with Lucinda, Reid lead the Neuro wing into be a national leader in the field, and Luke and Reid had a ton of hot sex.

I reject TPTB's reality and substitute yours.

On top of everything else, I can't believe how appallingly bad the writing is in TPTB's un-reality.

At least that makes it easier to ignore

Sherlock is fantastic! And oh God, look what your epic pimping powers last year has lead to. *g* I blame/thank you entirely for the fact that if I were attending this year my primary fandom column would be 'American Idol'. :D

(Wish I could be there. It was really awesome talking to you last year!)

I hope Adam tours the UK at a time convenient for you to see him live! I treasure my triumph at your fall for the Sparkly One ;)

Hee! Well, more accurately I've somehow managed to fall head over heels for the Slightly Less Sparkly One (I help run

krisallenmedia, what is my life), but I do love Adam too.

(Also, I've written like 70,000+ words of AI fic since last year. Look what you've done. :P)

Edited 2010-09-10 01:33 (UTC)

But I knew Adam had UK tours coming up (and which have been announced, I see), I just hope Kris makes it over there for you too :D

I'm bummed about Allison getting dropped by Jive, I'm so fond of all of The Mighty Trio of Kradison.

Thank you, I hope so too! He's actually going to be in Europe around early October, but only to sing for the troops as far as we're aware right now.

Me too. I hope another label picks her up. She's far too talented to just fade into obscurity.

Honey, would you be able to give me another copy of the two final (show & results) AI eps on disk? I lent it to my mother and she lost it.

I GET TO SEE YOU SOON! \o/

That will be no problem at all, just poke me a few days out and check that I remember to bring them :)

23 days \o/

Woo and Hoo!
