naushikaI've been super creative and productive lately! Woo! It's all thanks to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
gameofcards which I am enjoying even if I have to go to livejournal (hissss) to play, lol.
First, I made a set of Grimm season 1 icons which are over here.
Then I wrote a ficccccc, it's Steve/Jane, and is very short (1217 words) and is over here. There's only 2 other fics on ao3 with Steve/Jane as a tag; I feel like something of a pioneer. *stakes flag in the ground* I CLAIM THIS LAND IN THE NAME OF WHATEVER THE PAIRING SMUSH-NAME IS FOR STEVE/JANE.
Speaking of fic:
- Not Prime Time reveals happened! I GOT MASS EFFECT FIC!!! I got hearts and stars in my eyes when I saw that. My fic: Peace isn't found on Rannoch, post-series, Shepard and Tali bonding. I love it; it's bittersweet but feels totally in character. *rolls around in glee because she got Mass Effect fic*
(As for my own fic, since works are still anonymous, I can't share what I wrote yet. But I got 2 comments from people other than my recip, and a handful of kudos! So I'm pleased. :D)
- Went insane and took a pinch hit formcu_starfrost, which I had talked myself out of signing up for in the first place. *pats self on back* Am remembering why I've never written any fic with Loki featuring prominently in the first place: the intimidatingness that is writing Loki dialogue. Welp. Rewatched The Dark World again today to get into the mood. We'll see how this goes!
- I've got Crossovering and Rarepairfest sitting in my to-write box. I have some ideas brewing up haven't put proverbial pen to paper yet.
- Avengersfest has SIGNUPS open through July 14th. A lot of people sign up with rarepairs for this and that excites and intrigues me. My ship preferences for MCU tend to run rare (SOMEHOW! I usually am all about the juggernaut ships in canons but in MCU I just ended up loving all the underdogs. Oops.) so I am reallllllly tempted by this one. Also check out that nostalgic, old-style LJ comment sign up form! :D
-genficexchange is in the NOMINATION phase. While I love me a good genfic (truly!) I've got so many things on my plate right now that a genfic exchange is not quite tickling my fancy enough for me to sign up for this too, especially as I'm really considering Avengersfest at the moment. But I know a solid genfic exchange is something that has been wanted by many so go forth and check it out!
-rarecharacters is in the NOMINATION phase. The character I wanted most and nominated was rejected which I disagree with but whatever, I'm not gonna be That Person who argues the point. I have Avengersfest, I'll just go there. (AVENGERSFEST, apparently designed to meet all my needs!)

Date: 2014-07-10 01:17 pm (UTC)There are almost too many exchanges going on these days, I would love to do the genfic one, but feel like I have enough with spn_summergen and crossovering. Maybe I'll feel different in a few days
damn that enabler for gameofcards and its distractions - haha

Date: 2014-07-11 06:00 am (UTC)Haha I know what you mean. SO MANY EXCHANGES! Is fic more popular these days, or is it just exchanges that are more popular?? I can't keep track of them all. Yeah sadly the genfic one is just coming in late after a huuuuge spate of summer exchanges..
