Sinterklaas Countdown: 3 days
The Two Towers Countdown: 15 days
Birthday Countdown: 17 days
Christmas Countdown: 22 days

Today is going to be hellish. I'll not be home until lateish, because we have our Christmas Reception until half past seven, and before that there'll be stressing and running around and trying to get things done in time, and have I mentioned I'm dead tired?

(I need more vitamins, I think. More veggies, extra vitamins, and lots of fruit. Yes.)

Despite all that, I'm in an okay mood, emotionally speaking. Physically, I feel like crap, but I'm not down and I'm not pissed off at the world for no apparent reason, which makes for a nice change from my usual whining, no?

Thinking of redoing my icons. Again, yes. I still love my sad!Draco icon, but I'm tired of the rest of them. I think I'll go for a mixture of me!icons and random!icons next. Hm. The thing about my icons is, I always do them in sets. All ten of my icons must have a common theme, even if that theme is just "fandoms I've loved", "me", "kiddie!me", or whatever. I'm not that sure what this new theme would be, but I'm working on it.

OTP survey:

Your OTP/OT3:
Harry/Draco. It's been my OTP since I first read the pairing, and that was (one of) the first H/D stories ever posted. Yes, I've been in the fandom that long. In a lot of ways, H/D is my OTP to end all OTPs. I don't usually really OTP, but in their case, I have a hard time reading them with anyone else.

The only pairing I love more than H/D is Cooper Hawkes/Nathan West (and I just typo'ed that Nathan Wood -- DAMN YOU TWO!), and no one writes them anymore. :(

And since this is a HP survey, my alt-OTP in HP is Marcus/Lee, and yes I am on crack. Why:
Um. Have you got an hour? Basically, because I love antagonists pairing, and because ever since first reading book one, I've been interested in Draco. I'll spare you the long version.

With Marcus/Lee, I'm just going to blame elfiepike and kaitoujeanne. So there.

Canon (books) or Fanon (films):
Not sure if I'd consider the movies fanon, but I usually stick to book canon.

Popularity Level in the Fandom at Large:
Well, Harry/Draco is The Pairing That Ate HP Fandom, which annoys and saddens me, because I'm not used to liking mainstreamish fandoms/pairings, and also, 99% of all Harry/Draco is pure crap.

Marcus/Lee -- well, there's me, and there's elfiepike, and that's the whole popularity loevel, so. :D

Your Favorite OTP Fic (yours) and why:
Harry/Draco -- I'd have to say Evitar, because I've never written actual Harry/Draco yet, but this has a lot of my theories on Draco in it, and I wrote it with the intention of being pre-slash, so.
Marcus/Lee -- Well, I'll pretty much have to go with the war!drabbles, as that's all I've written for this pairing. Of those, I like Time the best, because of the first paragraph.

Your Favorite OTP Fic (someone else's) and why:
Harry/Draco -- Sadly, most serious!H/D fic disgusts, me, and i can't seem to find any that don't, right now, so I'm going to go with Wilvia's Boys! Are! Silly! fic. Butter and Pigtails and Deus Ex Machina, both of which made me giggle and squeal because it's Harry, and Draco, and there is kicking. It doesn't take much to make me happy.

Oh, wait. Duh, self! Haeddu, by Amatia. There.

Marcus/Lee -- I am, for some reason, quite fond of Lucky Mistake, but my all time favourite one is this one.

OTP Quote/Movie Lines:
Draco: "Scared, Potter?"
Harry: "You wish."
Melle: *full body squee*

'nuff said.

Favorite OTP Moment: 
Books: Draco warning the trio at the World Cup incident.

Movie: Stalker!Draco on the balcony at Flourish & Blotts. Mmmmmm.

Line that Describes Your OTP:
I'm skipping this one.

Song that Defines your OTP, and let's See Them Lyrics:
Somehow, my brain has been trying to convince me for the last few years that Breakfast At Tiffany's is the ultimate H/D song. I still say my brain is nuts.

You say we've got nothing in common
No common ground to start from
And we're falling apart
You say the world has come between us
Our lives have come between us
But I know you just don't care

Marcus/Lee would be Bob Dylan - Love Minus Zero:

My love he speaks like silence,
Without ideals or violence,
He doesn't have to say she's faithful,
Yet he's true, like ice, like fire.

And now I think my RSI is returning. Fuck.

Marcus/Lee -- well, there's me, and there's elfiepike, and that's the whole popularity loevel, so. :D Teehee. Jeanne is reminding me of her Firstness.

WHICH. btw. When you have the opportunity, Jeanne would like to discuss some RPG things. :D She'll probably be over here? (She says "yes.")
