Yessss, I've been trying to process this for years while watching him for goodness sake.

I’d love to see “nice women with interesting outfits and quiet children only” cars….

:D I used to have this memorized back in the days when I was obsessed with Puck of Pook's Hill.....

As a native English speaker, I very much prefer "those rolley things with the things on them" instead of saying "dice." No but seriously I just use "dice" for both forms because it seems rude to "die!" in polite company.

I got tagged by maverikloki. I’m supposed to name ten favorite characters from ten different fandoms. I can do this. I think. Assuming I can list the various Marvel Movies separately that is.<o:p></o:p>

1.   Avengers – Loki

2.   Thor – Frigga

3.   Iron Man – Tony Stark

4.   Danny Phantom – Dark Danny

5.   Vorkosigan Saga - Ivan Vorpatril

6.   Harry Potter – Weasley Twins (Count as one for the purpose of this list,)

7.   Lexx – Kai

8.   Kim Possible – Shego

9.   Sky High – Warren Peace

10. Disc World - Havelock Vetinari

Because fanfiction? I think if it wasn't compulsive, we wouldn't be doing it in the first place. I am in pretty much the same situation, best of luck with your WIPs..

“Because fanfiction?” is a very valid and accurate response! Best of luck with yours also.

Inspiration is often inconvenient. On a separate note - please do post the disturbing one :-)

This is also true! On a seperate note - nope, nope, nope! That outline got noped all the way into the back of a drawer when it was done.

Happens to all of us. <Hands a cup of mint tea to soothe your mind.>

Yes, they're also entertaining to watch because they always think of something new, it's like a magic show. As I wrote above, they're close to a certain kind of hero archetype, they have the same skills, but use them with cynicism, place themselves outside of the order of things and through that unmask it. I wonder if the conman has the kind of potential for people identifying themselves with him that superheroes have.
