Let Me Get Something Straight Here: Engaged?

[rionaleonhart]

I have watched about twelve episodes of Stargate SG-1, and I have already met four different versions of Jack O'Neill, three of Samantha Carter, three of Teal'c and two of Daniel Jackson. I may have already written a tiny Daniel Jackson/Daniel Jackson ficlet. I REGRET NOTHING.

For a person with a weird penchant for pairing people up with alternate versions of themselves, this is almost too much.

Anyway! As I now have the ability to create one, I do believe that this calls for an extremely odd poll. Don't you?

[Poll #906228]

(Is it too obvious that the main reason I actually posted this instead of abandoning the idea and slinking away in shame was because I really, really wanted to have the utterly irrelevant last question? I'm very interested in seeing what people might come up with with a 255-character limit.)

(EDIT: Oh my God, I can't believe I posted this. What must you all think of me? I HAVE COMPLICATED BUT COMPLETELY NON-SEXUAL AND NON-NARCISSISTIC REASONS FOR NOT COMPLETELY STRIKING OUT THE POSSIBILITY OF KISSING MYSELF. STOP STARING AT ME WITH YOUR JUDGEMENTAL EYES. IT WOULD BE FIC RESEARCH. FIC RESEARCH. The sad thing is that I am actually completely serious. I am the only person I know who would understand 'Hey, I'm completely uninterested in having a sexual or romantic relationship, but I think actually kissing someone might make me better able to write about it.')

Also, is it a bad thing that, when my little brother complains of stomach pain, my immediate thought is 'OH NO HE HAS BEEN GOA'ULDED'? It is, isn't it?

P.S. As an apology for the utter inexcuseability of this poll: if you comment on this post, I will tell you something I like about you.

One of my first impressions of you was 'oh, good Lord, this Anazri person reviews everything. CLEARLY SHE IS SUPERHUMAN.' (I seriously admire you enormously for that. It's something that I would never be able to do.)

My second was 'and her fanfiction has hilarious banter and uses some of the most gorgeous imagery that I have ever read. Oh, my.'

And then I saw your mini-Top Gear/Lord of the Rings crossover snippet:
"I am NOT an elf!" bellowed Jeremy.
"Yes you are," said Merry, entirely reasonably. "You're so tall. And you have funny ears."
and I knew that I was in love.

You're an amazingly talented writer, seriously - you're able to work beautifully with both dialogue and description, which is unfair wonderful. Your serious fanfiction is perfectly-characterised and absolutely beautiful (the images from Still With You have never quite stopped haunting me), and then there are things like the Jonathan Ross fic, which made me laugh until I could not breathe.

*grins* Some say she has no life, some say she's just a wee bit obsessed...

I had completely forgotten about that! *glee* It must be done, and it must have Jeremy wanting a Winged Beast. And possibly James being mistaken for Aragorn from the back. And oh, Richard would be furious at any implications that he was a hobbit...

*blushes* Thankyou, dear. That all means a lot coming from you, to be honest, as I admire your writing a lot.
