So I've been making icons for various icontests lately, and I looked at my Photobucket page after I uploaded the latest one, and I noticed they're all starting to look alike. I keep using that purple background and tilting everything in the same direction. So I made some new bases last night and I'll use one of them next time I make an icon. Which I should do, because I still haven't done the ones for [livejournal.com profile] whedonosity or [livejournal.com profile] firefly_caps...I think I'm caught up on all the other icontests currently running, though.

And I have fic to write. Plot bunnies hopping around like mad. I may have a hook for my [livejournal.com profile] spacesanta assignment. I saw yet another fic the other day where River helps Zoe, and I thought, "What if it was Jayne instead of River?" because the River ones are getting a little old, so that one went into the hutch as well. I've got another one where Kaylee gratuitously feeds Jayne strawberries. Um. Yeah.

*goes back to staring at fic doc and hunting caps for [livejournal.com profile] whedonosity because I can multitask like whoa*

A secret santa fic community for the Firefly fandom

Well, that's an interesting idea. I'm reading the community page now.

So, what was your assignment?

Pairing request: Wash/Zoe, Mal general, River
Fic requests: Angsty, but not want to slit wrists at the end,
comradely, hopeful

I have an actual title for the thing (which I don't usually get until well after I've finished a fic)...but the Hubby told me that he thought my basic premise might be out of character for River, so I may rethink it. A little.

There's another Firefly Santa ([livejournal.com profile] serenity_santa) comm out there if you want to get in on the action; their signups don't close until the end of the month. I love ficathons, usually.

Well, y' know, I would do, but frankly, I know just about as much about Firefly and Serenity and like that as, well, say, as you do about Rocky Jones, Space Ranger (http://www.cathuria.com/bcd/bcrocky.htm). Which is to say, not much.

[I have given a thought or two to a Tom Corbett, Space Cadet fic. No kidding. I'm not the only one to go there, either.]

I'd love to see one where it's not River helping Zoe through her grief. Because River has gotten that job way too often. I've even seen Inara get the job once or twice. But Jayne ... now that's a fun idea.

By the way, what are some good cons/sites for Firefly/Serenity fic?

Well, I happen to think that [livejournal.com profile] inlovewithnight has some of the best Firefly fic out there. Her site is here. LJC is good as well; she's here. And there's more good stuff here, about Jayne. Firefly's Glow has a really nice searchable database.

Amazingly enough, the Pit of Voles has fic that's generally not terrible. Apparently the fangirls missed teh pretteh in this show, or it didn't last long enough to get on their radar screens. Lots of people on LJ post there, me included.

Heh. Have you read the novelization of the movie? Jayne has impure thoughts about Zoe there at the end. I can totally make something out of that...

No, I haven't read the novelization, but I can see that so much for Jayne., I really can.

I'm gonna stop spamming the comms I belong to and go read some of those you recommended.
