Title: The Dragon
Author: wild-dreamer
Fandom: BBC's Merlin
Pairing: None.
Words: ~200
Summary: The last words the Great Dragon ever said to Uther Pendragon are also the words that condemned him to chains beneath the castle; they are the only reason the Dragon yet lives.

( The Dragon )

This story took me far longer than it should have to write; I got trapped on a word choice issue and ended up abandoning it for other things for a while. ♥ Enjoy!

..Peculiar violent dreams. I blame multiple sources, as at least dream number two of two involved Buffy, Faith, Joker, Harley Quinn, some other batman-universe bad girl, a horde of goblins directed by Joker, a train/subway tunnel system thing, and my ass-kickingly awesome self. Who might have been a Slayer, or a DC hero, or heaven only know what I was.

Took a bus to the terminal to meet Buffy and Faith, perhaps with some notion of showing them up by defeating Joker and his goblin hordes before they even made it to the Slayers. Realised I was on the bus with all the goblins, right about as we reached the destination, at which point I began to unleash a can of whup-ass on folk. I slashed the throat of Joker's blonde friend (Harley? Faces were blurred in the fight, and I can't quite recall) and he got all "GRAAAR NOBODY KILLS MY HARLEY" (guess it was)and then I launched off of something and stabbed him through the throat as well. The poor, now stunned-still, girl at his side I thought was actually Harl, but I'm still unclear, however I smiled at her and whispered that because I'd always loved her, she'd die a cleaner death. Which somehow involved a clean run of the blade across (through, really, I suppose..) her throat after I'd brushed a kiss over her lips.

WHY THE THROATS, GAIS? Morbid dreams, much?

Anyway, after smooching and slashing miss painted-lips (Still unsure, perhaps there were two Harleys? But this one had red hair I think, and the other was platinum blonde. Which Harl is not, exactly. Buh?) I kicked and slashed down a few goblins, and the rest disbursed rapidly in the face of my wrath, and I went to see Buffy and Faith. The Slayers were, get this, sitting around eating tasty little tartlette-pie things! Like, I dunno, some peculiar combination of fruit tart and berry shortcake. All like nothing was happening. And they were like "oh hey, wassup? Want some noms?" or Faith was anyway, and Buffy just gave me this look like "oh hai lol whut u doin there? Somethin happen?" and I was like "geez gais, was only me stabbin' Joker in the throat and killin his minions and shits for you." And they were like "oh hey, you stabbed him? So he's done nao?" and I was like "Yes, only really it's Joker so he'll be back alive later, I dunno how but he will" and then I woke up.


WHUT. SRS WHUT.

I'm gonna go take a shower, now that I've written it all out and had a cup of tea.


ETA: No, no, wait. I'd already killed Blonde (Harley?) earlier on, she was dead and for some reason known only to Joker he was hauling her around with him. And there was some other chick that I took out, I think. Or maybe it was her again? It's all blurry dream-memory. T.T I can't remember.

For anyone interested in the writing of things, especially semi-epic things or crossover awesomeness...

I have a prompt for you.

Write me a Dr Who/Firefly crossover, with River Tam as the Doctor's companion.

She would stare into the heart of the Tardis, and the Doctor would be afraid. She would sit for hours, while he watched with a perplexed air, until she would laugh and turn to him. Tell him something of himself.

She would rearrange his machinery, and when she'd finished the Tardis would hum in pleasure and go where he wanted it to go.



Maybe I should be writing this? But for now, I have to shower. Take prompt, run with it, write me a story! Maybe I'll write one of my own, too.

And the child wants to return to Wonderland. Beauty in the night air, comfort from the cold, but yet the adventure awaits.

Always waiting. Follow the Cheshire Cat, and not the Rabbit, child. The Rabbit is always late, though he hurries; it'll do you no good to learn from that. Follow the magic, mind your manners, and don't forget the nursery rhymes of your youth.

Yes, those ones, no not that, you've got them all wrong, child. Speak up, speak up, you're so timid you'll never be heard in all this din. Only that Cat might hear you, sitting on your shoulder as he is.

What, you didn't notice? He weighs as much as a grin, and that's all, my dear, or didn't you know?

Sometimes, little Alice, things are not always what they seem. Smile back at the moon.


She glances at the cigarette in her hand, wonders if she's had a bit too much to drink tonight. The woman speaks to her, but the words roll over and she doesn't remember what her responses are. The edges of everything are off, the world seen through gaussian blur, except the crescent moon in the spring sky. Between the clouds, it hangs sharp edged and oddly familiar, she finds herself staring up as the woman's voice fades, and she wakes up to the sound of her blaring alarm clock. Her head is pounding in time with her heartbeat, aching and fierce, and there's a strange sense of something missing but she can't figure out what.

She writes it off as another bizarre drunken dream that she's forgotten in the early moments of waking, and goes on about her life, never knowing who she is, never knowing where she's been.


~FIN~

Hell if I know where this came from, guys. But here it is. Random ass Alice fic, about ten or fifteen minutes in the writing of it, and no editing. Happy Cheshire Moon to y'all.

*Wanders off to bed, as she has to be up before the sun for work tomorrow.*

I have just done what might be the funniest thing in a long while.

I'm sitting here, reading SPN fic (Dean/Castiel, Mmm) and drinking my egg nog, which has a very very tiny amount of rum in it. (All of this was intended to help me get my insomniac ass to sleep, so I can get up and work tomorrow.)

And there is another glass next to mine, with about two gulps of something in it. Milk? Something. I don't know. It was KK's drink, it doesn't matter what's in it.

I moved hers behind mine so I could stop reaching past it to get my drink..

THIS WAS MY FIRST MISTAKE.

I then, reading and not looking at the glasses, picked hers up instead of mine.

And took a drink.

And promptly SPAT IT BACK INTO THE GLASS. In sheer surprise and "Woah! That's not what I was drinking!"

After which I stare for a moment at the last two gulps of a White Russian, now with my spit added, and start to laugh uncontrollably. All I can think of at that moment is Dogma, and Metatron spitting his tequila because angels aren't allowed to drink. Followed by "omg I just spit in KK's drink.."

So then, I tell my mother, because she's looking confused about my laughter.

Her reaction? "You might as well drink it now."

"Yes, since it now has my spit in it. White russian, now with SPIT."

Her screen nearly took a nice spray of water, too.

My duty here is done. And I've added the drink (with SPIT) to my egg nog.

Mmmm; kahlua, rum, and egg nog. =D With SPIT.

I'm still laughing.

Note to self:

Anistasia's "Once Upon a December"...

Would make for an awesome, twisted, broken NOIR vid.

Anime vidding world, I hope you are ready for this.

Cause someday... When I've finished watching the series... And have appropriate vidding software...

I am gonna make that an awesome vid.

Or make someone else do it for me, I'm not exactly picky.

Volunteers?

Start with some background info: I left my ipod in my boyfriend's car last night. Thus, I had to put on the radio to sleep to when I went to bed.

When I woke up this morning, completely free of any alarms (half an hour at least before mine was supposed to go off), it was to Asia's Heat of the Moment.

I stared blankly at the ceiling for a long moment, figured out what day it was (Monday, not Tuesday) and wondered where in hell Dean was, to annoy me into actually getting out of bed.

No Dean, not Tuesday, and oh yeah: I'm not Sam Winchester. So I rolled over and fitfully napped until my alarm did go off, before getting up.

Let us hope this isn't some sort of sign.

But now that I've informed the internet of my bizarre (vaguely amusing, vaguely worrisome) happenings this morning, I need to go take a nice, long, hot shower and get dressed for my job interview. Wish me luck on this one, everybody.

I'll try to update again soon, sorry for the lack of posts lately.

My brain just created the most convoluted and frankly interesting dream in the history of ever.

Which appears to have combined elements from Angel Sanctuary, Death Note, Firefly?, and something odd and entirely other.

I'll tell what I can remember... )

Welcome to my wacky brain, ne.

Let's see here.

Things I forgot from con babble: KK's friend's are like GOLDFISH. ATTENTION SPAN OF A GOLDFISH.

"We'll just go wait in line for the cosplay contest, right? YEAH. OKAY!" ...ten minutes later... "I'm bored. Wanna go see what else is going on?" "OKAY 8D WE GO BUHBYE NAO." *Facepalm.* Cue me puttering along after them and grumbling about goldfish attention spans.

We were in the line for the dance for all of about two minutes.


And on to post-con awesomeness now...

Hehe, I'm stalking James-san. Kidding, kidding.

*Five minutes of IM chatting later...*

OH MY GOD. THEY KEEP GETTING OLDER.

But I bet he's not a virgin... I would hope, anyways. *Stares.* Twenty-nine? TWENTY. NINE.

Holy shit. Not that age matters to me, and all, just... Ten years. Wow. I never would have guessed.

Anyways. My current fandom obsession is now DEATH NOTE.

HEART! I -just- met Mello and Near, and OMG Mello is a nutcase! Near is like a miniature blond version of L! SO CUTE. *SPOILER* made me want to scream and flail. I want *SPOILER*!

L IS LOVE. WHY???

I have got to go and mow the lawn before potential work today. Love!

*Runs off in a hurry.*


ETA: Rain, so no lawnmowing. Plus, DAY OFF. YEY. ...I'mma go play DDR dressed like Misa now. =D

Er. As soon as Roommate-chan goes to work and stops napping on the couch, that is.

Wow, it's been a while. Plus, that last post was not a good one to stop posting with. xD; Oops.

So much stuff is going on. I'm working CRAZY this week and next and the week after that, with today being my major off day. I don't get more time off until the weekend of SakuraCon.

I'm sick. This stupid cold finally kicked my ass, but I'm gonna do everything in my power to kick it to the curb and get on with stuff ASAP. I -refuse- to be sick by the time con comes around. Just, no. I'm popping megadoses of immunoboosters and such like, I'm getting a little exercise today, and a lotta sleep, and I'm gonna be mostly off the internet for the next few weeks.

Not to mention I've gotten a lot fed up with all the people I know on Yahoo, and I've decided that I'm only up for talking to a very select few of them. Only the ones I like enough. I talk to Max on the phone a lot, so I don't need to be at the computer for him. Niisan doesn't -require- computer time either, so it's mostly Zee and Kel that I'm online for at this point.

With occasional appearances from Nikki and Rari, and if Jas would ever be online...

I'm up for RP, but not for RL crap, mostly.

On the RP side of news, I have two Original characters from the Firefly universe. ♥ One of them is an Independent soldier, and the other is an Alliance soldier. They're from different timelines, though.

I guess that's the main update. Things are otherwise pretty normal.

We had [livejournal.com profile] the_shoshanna visit for a week, of which I did not get to see her much because I was working. We had a bunch of the Seattle-area people come over on Saturday for a potluck, which I missed a large portion of. Between working all day (until six, plus an hour on the bus) and it being my love's birthday, I didn't do much interacting until he'd gone to bed, by which point it was about nine and people were starting to head out.

I think I'm going to get dressed and take a walk to the store, see if I can find any more Kick-Ass Immune, and pick up some NyQuil and tissues. Then, I plan on curling up with some of the manga I've been too lazy to read, and getting some rest. Or I might curl up with the Serenity RPG guide and finish flushing out some character stuff.

ob·ses·sion [uhb-sesh-uhn]
–noun
1. the domination of one's thoughts or feelings by a persistent idea, image, desire, etc.
2. the idea, image, desire, feeling, etc., itself.
3. the state of being obsessed.
4. the act of obsessing.


And with that, here I am... six in the morning... STILL AWAKE... because there was Labyrinth fiction.

And I am, admittedly, obsessed.

Christ. Thank god I don't have to work tom-- Today.

I can't even work on my own story. I need sleep so badly, but I'm utterly caught in this itching insomnia. I want to sleep, but I don't want to spend all day sleeping and if I go to bed -now-? Let me see, only eight hours sleep still has me waking up at two in the afternoon.

Which leaves me feeling useless and slovenly, especially when I have to get up Saturday morning for work, and god that's going to suck.

Feh. I'll take a nap now, or something. Somebody better wake me up tomorrow. =/

So my latest little fan-obsession: Labyrinth.

I only finally saw it fairly recently, or if I'd seen it before it was long enough ago that I don't recall seeing it.

And someone (*COUGH*Nikki*COUGH*) got "Dance, Magic, Dance" stuck in my head yesterday, and.. it hasn't left. I've been trolling the evil place of dooom (fanfiction.net) looking for decent stories, and actually found a few good ones and many tolerable ones, and some that I got halfway through a chapter of and had to shut the window.

Please, someone! Link me to good Labyrinth fic and icons! For the sake of my sanity!

I'm nearly tempted to write a piece myself, actually, but I'm not quite sure I could get their voices down well enough. It would take watching the movie a few more...

Hmmmmm.

I'm gonna go take that walk I was thinking about, and get something to eat, and then I'mma come back and curl up and watch it again on my laptop.

TTFN, y'all!

P.S. ICONS! ARRGGGGHHHHHHHH...

Oh dear me.

He plays Akito very nicely too.

Hee. Of course, this was only discovered from a sudden inkling to play Kureno that I had. And, with noone else online, and nobody that I felt was worthy of my Kureno-ness, I asked him to attempt Akito.

And oh my, he plays a fabulously just-possessive-enough God of the zodiac.

I think I shall throw it in the entry, what we've done so far.. It isn't much, but very lovely characterization anyways. In case anyone wants to see. (Mind his grammar is a little off, and his syntax is strange, but if you can overlook that, click the cut.) )
*Purrs softly.* I should sleep on that, hmm~ Get some rest before work tomorrow. Yess~ Unless he posts again~

However, I feel that the list of partially-finished things needs to get done first. At least to watch more than three episodes of any of them. List goes here~ )
