30 Day HP Meme, Day 11

[featherxquill]

OMG you guys, go and read The White Team versus Orange by therealsnape (Prompt: Rita / Poppy, Role reversal, the payment of a World Cup bet debt) because it is made of awesome and win, and quite possibly cookies and puppies and rainbows!

For the Grammar Nazis and general language-enjoying people on my flist (I know there are a few of you), here is a rather amusing article I read a few days ago: What It's Really Like To Be A Copy Editor. Seriously, it opens with: The word is douche bag. Douche space bag.

Moar Meme (It's technically tomorrow already):

11. Character you're crushing on





THIS IS NOT A CRUSH. IT'S A FULL-GROWN LOVE AFFAIR. IT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR YEARS.

(One of Marquis' best manips, IMO)

Do you think it is at all possible that I use this picture for my banner in the Rita's Lover bet? I will give full credit to Marquis. Please give her LJ name if she has any.

And somehow, I'd guessed. Since I just read this on my flist-reading, you must have friended me. *feels honoured, friends back*

[therealsnape.livejournal.com]

Oh, god, my memory is seriously failing me. I've read your posts for quite some time now. Please forgive me!!! I'll never start on the Chardonnay before sundown again, I promise!

[featherxquill.livejournal.com]

Haha, don't worry. It's nearly 3am here, and I have been up since 5:45am. I have no idea what's going on. I should really go to sleep, since I'm mostly just wandering around the internet aimlessly.

I don't think making a banner with the art would be a problem :). Her LJ name is eldivinomarques these days.

I'll mention that, and I'm still red at Complete Epic Fail. Merlin, I'm so sorry! Thanks for not being angry.

[featherxquill.livejournal.com]

When you post a comment about 'being red' with your Snape icon, I totally see him blushing. Which is hilarious/adorable, and just makes me realise quite how insanely tired I am.

Quite randomly (and I am seriously, seriously going to bed RIGHT AFTER I post this comment, no really), were you in fandom in '06? Or more specifically, at Patronus? If you were, it's entirely possible that we met in person. Just wondering *g*.

[therealsnape.livejournal.com]

No, or I would have remembered you.
I've only shown up in fandom end 2008, on FF net. Am on LJ since 2009.

[kellychambliss.livejournal.com]

Whoa! Um...yeah. Wow. *turns on the air conditioning*

[featherxquill.livejournal.com]

Ah, I see :). I tend to wonder/ask that of most of the new people I meet from Europe, since there were so many different countries represented at Patronus (it wasn't a huge con, but, ah, Europe - you guys only have to sneeze to be in another country *envy*), and a number of people I spoke to only with real names :). It would be funny to friend someone on LJ at a later date and not have the penny drop.

[featherxquill.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that was pretty much my reaction the first time I saw it *enjoys yours*.

I mean, how could one not have a crush on this character, you know?

Actually, this one was my LJ background for a while, during the time I was on exchange in the UK, and for some reason I linked my journalism professor to my LJ one time. He spent the rest of the time I was there calling me 'Miss Feather Quill', so I think the sight of it was rather memorable for him, too.

it's official. that twitching arse icon has me transfixed.

and then i clicked the cut....

It's a clever ploy to lure prey.
