... which will be
jastaelf's birthday fic. I've written 4 full chapters already, some of it is a way bit creepy, but I'm content with it. Chapter 5 is on its way.
I might have to post it un-betaed, though, at least for the beginning. Just as some of the Edhellond anniversary fics. Too many eskimos, too few fish... or whatnot. I'm tired, we have a heat wave, school starts on Monday, and I've already been called to the principal before the whole thing begins, so I'm having such joyous expectations - NOT! Don't expect me to be coherent.
Went to Vienna with Mum to end the summer with a nice experience. Got me the 3rd season of Buffy on DVD, the 8th season of Stargate and some Babylon 5 stuff I've never heard before. No Alien Nation, no Andromeda. I wish frigging amazon.uk would accept our money. They have such nice boxed editions, and in Region 2 coding, too... ah, well.
Almost finished the "Tales Before Tolkien" anthology of modern fantasy stories. Some of them were nice, some of them were utter crap. I'd like to write a few reviews about them, but just don't feel up to the challenge.
Wrote some kinky stuff, just for my own entertainment. An AU in which the Charmed Ones become kinky vamps. Lots of BDSM and violence. It's something that will be never even typed up, much less posted anywhere. But it helps me to deal with all the anger that has been pent up in me during the last six months or so.
Got the original Underworld movie, after all. It's... interesting, even though a bit too brutal for my taste. Liked the werewolf scientist a lot. Too bad he got killed. It's always the funny, quirky guys with personality who have to bite the dust. Looking forward to watch the sequel, soon.
Blade - the Series is finished on PRO7. Too bad the show was never picked up for a second season, although Blade himself is the least interesting character in the whole thing. I kinda liked Marcus Van Scriver, even if he was evil.
larian would hate the show, as Kavan Smith dies a horrible death in it. *g*
More French picspam as soon as I get around editing my photos. Still hate the keypad of my new Notebook. Still miss my old PC. Still unable to access my saved work, due to the lack of some programs on said Notebook. *sighs* Life is complicated.

And yes, it's such a shame that Singe, the werewolf scientist dies in the movie. Which is why in my ongoing Underworld fic, he gets to live as does Lucian. Some parts of the story are set in the 1950's in various European countries so I have to keep looking up the political and geographical details of Hungary, Austria, the former Czechoslovakia, etc. It's the most work I've ever had to do for a fic but it's one of my favorites, so it's worth it:)
And the third season of Buffy is one of my favorites. There were so many great episodes and the season finale was awesome. ("Fire bad. Tree pretty. Hee hee.) Plus, it introduced Wesley who's one of my favorite characters even though he was a bit pompous and cowardly at first.

So, you're a Wesley fan, too? I do love him so much, he's a wonderfully flawed character who can grow to surprising heights at the most unexpected moment. I've got a huge, convulsed vampire-crossover-AU in which he makes quite the career as the Precept of the - hypothetical - Los Angeles Legacy House. *g*
I liked the first three seasons of Buffy very much. She was an interesting character up then. I began to disike the series starting with Season 4 - she turned into an immature, unpleasant bitch from there on. Although I did like Riley and the other two Initiative guys a lot. But again, I'm a devoted Spike fan, so probably completely biased...
