Sorry for flist spammage, but I'm going away for a week (beach house + friends + island = win) and so... yeah, if I don't reply, that's why.



See you all again on the 29th

Hi there!

I got here from the TGS page, chasing after your AMAZING userpic. I see that it's exclusive, but was wondering if you do requests. To be honest, I don't know everyone on your list, but the TG and TW bits had me howling, and I would love to give you a list to make.

I don't know what I could bribe you with--a TG story, maybe, unless you're into TW, The Sentinel, Buffy or XFiles, where I also make merry with the words.

Maybe just a winning smile and a cheers from a Canadian friend?

Hi there to you too! And I must say, if any icon deserves respect it's yours. But I absolutely demand to be bribed would love to make you an icon! Just give me a list of fandoms and/or characters and a preferred font and colour scheme and I'll be on it like a cross-eyed buzzard. Or something. If I don't know the fandom I'll let you know, but hopefully I'll know enough to come up with something.

Winning smiles from Canadians make me weak at the knees :P

Suh-weet! I'm going to scope out your icon, and then send you a list if that's cool?

Cross eyed buzzard, huh? I love it!

:D <-- Winning (tee hee)

I'm very near to the "nut up or shut up" point of posting my first TG story, and I will have to dedicate it to you!

Cheers!

I took a cue from your icon and came up with 17. I only have one that I'd like verbatim, and I'll leave the rest to your wicked imagination (although if some of 'em are too obscure, just let me know).

...RTD (Russell Davies)had it killed in episode four...

The rest of the list:
Ianto Jones
Captain Jack Harkness
Richard Hammond
James May
Jeremy Clarkson
Walter Skinner
Fox Mulder
Blair Sandburg
Jim Ellison
Rupert Giles
Spike
Sam Winchester
Dean Winchester
Blue Gillespie (rock/blues band from Wales)
Doctor Who
Sheldon Cooper

I really like the font you used. One of my favorite colour combinations is bright green type on dark/forest green background. Dunno how cool that would look, but let me know if it's lame *L*

Thanks again!!!!!

OH GOD IT'S SO TRUE KILLED IN EPISODE FOUR RTD YOU UTTER BASTARD.

Sorry.

What a lovely list! I shall endeavour to come up with something wickedly witty for them all. Unfortunately, there are a couple I don't recognise...
(Blair Sandburg, Jim Ellison, Sheldon Cooper)...so maybe you could suggest something for these, or I can research them? (but the reference may be a little clumsy :P)

Also, green on green sounds nice, maybe a really really dark green with mottled lettering? IDK.

Blair Sandburg and Jim Ellison are the leads from a nineties cop show called The Sentinel. Very hot guys, very slashy. Jim's a cop with heightened senses and Blair's the anthropologist studying him :D Also, Jim's got a military background and Blair's a bit of a hippy. So maybe something along the lines of

"....it's in Peru with Jim Ellison..." (where Jim got his powers from)
"Blair Sandburg's teaching it to meditate" (which he does for Jim, with much gratuitous touching :) )

and Sheldon Cooper is a physics professor on Big Bang Theory, (super funny stuff) so my icon could be "researching heterotic string theory with Sheldon Cooper, PhD"

The lettering all mottled sounds cool!
Thanks again! You rock!!

FANTASTIC! THANK YOU!

Yay! I have reveived your list and am working on it. Apologies for the delay in replying, RL is being a bitch.

Ohhh, TG story? That is exciting :D I certainly don't deserve any dedications, but I'd love to read it.

Now let me go check out that list...
