One of these days letters are going to fall from the sky

HELLO FRIENDS NEW AND OLD. HAPPY MARCH!

So..here 3 things that smack of goodness:
1. reel_merlin   signups! Seeing as I've been having a bit of fun with fic writing, I thought I'd try to sign up for something like this.  I read the completed entries over there in the fall and then asked myself "Self, what movie would I want to cross over with Merlin?". And then it hit me and refused to go away...I want a Merlinized version of The Fifth Element. With Arthur!Corbin Dallas and Merlin!Lilu. That's right, Merlin is going to be Milla Jovovich, only with magic instead of martial skills and no orange hair. I might be crazy, BUT I'M EXCITED, FOLKS.

2. March! Which means spring is on its way and kayak season is almost here! (Until I get a drysuit and perfect my roll..then it's on all 4 seasons)

3. Explaining plate tectonics to my coworkers using pizza slices and spatulas for props.

And 3 photos I for the road


That's a Sheppard Fairey piece (of HOPE poster fame) near work

   

Took these on the way to work today. I didn't do it, honest!

OH GOSH MERLIN AS LILU IS AMAZING.

It's still February here. :( I want it to be March though, because a) it's my birthday month and b) Green Zone! (I have a thing for Matt Damon and I loved the Bourne movies, soo. . . (same director for both movies))

I so badly want to participate in reel_merlin as well, but I'm afraid to say which one I want to do because I don't want it to be taken.

I've never been kayaking. How did you get into it?

I was thinking of signing up too! Probably will. :) For The Way We Were, actually, because I saw the sign-ups announced and went "hmmmmmmm!"

reel_merlin!!! I'm doing it too, and SO excited. \o/ I still don't have any idea what movie to pick, though. :S

HOLY SHITE, I WAS THINKING OF WRITING A FIFTH ELEMENT FIC FOR REEL MERLIN! But you're welcome to it, if you want -- I only have a sentence and am terrible at finishing, and also wanted to do one based on The Company of Wolves. XD

I added you, I hope you don't mind!

Reel_Merlin is always a brilliant challenge! I planned to enter the last one myself but ended up with a monster of a fic that I still haven't finished :-/. I say go for it!

a Merlinized version of The Fifth Element. With Arthur!Corbin Dallas and Merlin!Lilu.

YES. THAT.

I have so badly wanted to write a Merlin fic, but it seems like such a daunting task. Also I keep telling myself that I can't write any more fic until I finish my novel. *nods emphatically*

LOL on #3.

I never saw 5th Element but I always read all the reel_merlin stories so I look forward to it.

Ahahaha The Fifth Element, the entire movie I spent my time going: "just watch, it's love!" AND THEN IT HAPPENED and I laughed extensively. But I think Arthur and Merlin could fit quite well.

Hello there!

I keep pndering reel_merlin and then think - but what film would I do?

But the Fifth Element Merlin style? I would love to read that one.

Oh. My. God. The Fifth Element is one of my favorite movie and a Merlin fic based on this movie for reel_merlin would be absolutely awesome! OMG, do iiiiit!
(who will you cast for Ruby? I love him and please, please, tell me you're going to keep him!)
