[Meme] 21 Days of Dreamwidth - Days 5 to 10

( Days 5 - 9 )

10. Pick 10 random icons from your userpics and tell me about them.

Emilie Autumn. One of my favorite musicians/poets/artists. She satisfies the dark-Victorian part of my soul.

From Little Women, Jo working on her novel. I mostly have it for the hardware; I love the nib pen she's using and I have a similar one that my step-mother-in-law got me for Xmas.

I love Spock. Zachary Quinto is also awesome. And I tend to raise my eyebrow when someone makes a really stupid argument/misses the point/gives me a hard time.

The Dark Knight turned me into a Joker fangirl, I admit. I always liked the character...but the creation of one who fits in with Nolan's gritty, more realistic and Film Noir-ish take on Batman just threw me head over heels.

Plotphobia is a common experience for me. And sadly, not just with longer works. My Muse also tends to go between being phobic about a plot to giving me something more intricate than the story was meant to handle....

Mohinder Suresh is my favorite geneticist... (And he would fit perfectly into Ravenclaw, though he definitely has his Slytherin moments.)

Scarecrow. Jonathan Crane. Another favorite character from the Batman ensemble. I thought Cillian Murphy was an excellent pick for Crane/Scarecrow. A somewhat different incarnation than comic Scarecrow, but just as chilling in many respects.

Pen. Paper. Coffee. If I'm writing, whether for work or for my own personal satisfaction, there must be coffee nearby. In a pinch, I'll settle for tea (Earl Grey), but coffee is my preference.

Something I tend to quote whenever I encounter the "feminazi" comment from some random (or not so random) jack ass. Yes, my problem with your calling a woman a "bitch" because she told you--in not so coy terms--that she didn't appreciate your catcall, or my umbrage with your thinking people with uteruses should be forced to undergo a specific medical condition that only happens to them.....is just like the invasion of a country and the killing of its citizens. I snort in your general direction.

Vulpes Inculta from Fallout: New Vegas. (I'm sure, by now, you can tell I really like villains...) He's a creepy bastard. Made moreso by his wonderful voice actor (Jason Spisak). I got a bit of a chill when I first encountered him in Nipton, surrounded by fires and crucified people... And I wanted to know more about him. Which probably explains why he seems to be edging into more of my fic Dispatches from New Vegas. (Though, I still don't know if I'll be creating much of his backstory...)
