 I was just thinking, it's kind of odd that I don't have any favorite live action actresses. I have favorite actors, and favorite voice actresses (Tara Strong and Sue Blu are goddesses), but I don't have any live action actresses I'm like, totally devoted to, watch-anything-they're-in like I am about Jeffrey Combs or Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

I think maybe it's that in the genres I favor, sci-fi and fantasy, female characters don't get to show the range that male characters do, so I don't get to see much of the actresses's chops. I mean, Barbara Crampton and Cathy Cherry Yuzna are awesome in From Beyond. Creepy mad scientist rivalry FTW. But they don't have much material outside of Gordon/Yuzna films.

Labyrinth is droolworthy all around, but Jennifer Connelly is pretty well upstaged by David Bowie's hair.

I loved Natalie Portman in Black Swan, but I've just never seen another movie where she's that interesting.

I don't know. Anyone have any recs? I tend to latch onto actors who are good at being sexy/adorable/a little unhinged all at once. Any ladies fit the profile?

Posting the last twenty-one first lines I wrote in fanfic. Very curious about anything that stands out to you about them, very willing to answer any questions.

I'm just using fics I've posted to my journal and/or AO3. If I had to paw through commentfic and drawerfic, we'd be here all night, lol.

( Cut for length )


I was kind of surprised to see how many characters I write about. Most of my brainspace is taken up by Roddy et. al.

Ask me a question/leave me a prompt, and I'll babble for a couple paragraphs of meta. Fandoms I'm familiar with include:

-Transformers G1, Animated, Unicron Trilogy, Prime, Rescue Bots, and a glancing familiarity with the cracky Japanese canon thanks to the wiki
-GI Joe G1, Rise of Cobra and a liiiitle bit of Renegades
-Jem
-Any pony from G1 on
-Sky Dancers
-Adventure Time
-Star Trek
-If you want to ask me a question about a fandom I don't know, go for it, lol. I'll make something up.
