Ephemera, Skins + Merlin Rec

[merelyn]

I've decided to try this as a list this time:

1. I am behind on soooo many things, including my flist, my Netflix, my laundry, and my plans for catching up on BSG before the finale. I also somehow haven't managed to watch the last half of Being Human 1.02, despite having watched the first half days ago.


2. I have, however, managed to watch 1.01-1.08 of Skins. Loving it so much so far! Where does the fandom hang out? (Also, is it just me or is Tony/Sid/Michelle a fucked up OT3 of awesome?)


3. I got a new layout! And a paid account, with more icon space than I can handle. (There is a disproportionate amount of Merlin ones. Especially Morgana icons. I NEED HELP.)


4. On an unrelated note of TOTAL FAIL: Seriously???? Normally I can put PeTA in the "well intentioned but kind of crazy" box, but that totally crosses the line.


5. There's another addition to the discussion about that thingswithwings post over at mecurtin's here that's worth checking out if you're following it.


6. reel_merlin posting week is coming up really soon! (And since I'm not writing anything I can say that without a trace of panic or OHGODWHATWASITHINKING??) *bounces* (ETA: Posting is extended!)



Also, as per usual, a Merlin fic rec at the end, in shiny new blockquote format for emphasis!

That Which Binds by lavvyan

This is lavvyan's entry for today for 14_valentines. I read it early this morning and it's still sticking with me. lavvyan takes the (perhaps?) inevitable fall of Camelot and turns it on its head in a way that's brilliant and wrenching and somehow still hopeful all at once. (Also, her Merlin totally deserves the Rodney McKay Brave Little Toaster Award for this. Oh, Merlin.)

Thanks for the rec! And by that I of course mean THANKS FOR DESTROYING MY SOUL. Owwww.

Ohhh, man, I am painfully behind with reel_merlin. But yay userpics!

INORITE? Dammit, lavvyan.

I feel like everyone is behind, which is why we extended posting another week. :)
