I've got a "milestone" birthday coming up and I bought myself a birthday gift of something I've wanted for a long time: the complete Red Green DVD collection -- yep, all 300 episodes! And

amedia made a whole bunch of Red Green icons for me (one of which you see here).

A big TYK to

amedia for the timely icons!

1. Under what rating do you write most?

Gen (237)

Teen (43) is a very poor second. Seriously trailing are Not Rated (6) and Mature (2).

2. What are your top 3 fandoms?

1. Forever Knight (101)
2. The Charioteer (Mary Renault) (46)
3. MASH (16)

If I combine The Flash and DC's Legends of Tomorrow, which are mostly crossovers, I've written 18 Arrowverse stories.

I've also written 42 stories in "RENAULT Mary - Works", which are all ITOWverse metafic that potentially involves characters from any of her books visiting a metaverse. I've left them out because they're a fannish derivative in the same way that FK War posts are (and my war posts aren't on AO3, anyway, so wouldn't be counted).

3. Which character do you write about most?

Nick Knight (57)

Natalie (30) and LaCroix (26) are nearly tied with each other, and also with two characters from The Charioteer: Laurie Odell (25) and Ralph Lanyon (23).

4. What are the 3 top pairings you've written?

1. Ralph Lanyon/Laurie Odell (14)
2. Nick Knight/Natalie Lambert (8)
3. Nick Knight/Janette DuCharme (7)

From which you may correctly conclude that pairings are not my main interest when it comes to writing fanfic!

5. What are the top 3 additional tags?

1 Metafiction (44)
2. Backstory (40)
3. Historical (25)

Followed by Christmas (21), Futurefic (20), and Canon-Related (19).

(Technically, I ought to put "ITOWverse" as #2; but those stories are all also tagged as Metafiction, and actually comprise most of my metafic.)

I was too busy to notice when it happened, but

trickortreatex revealed authors this morning, which means I can 'fess up to my (not at all predictable) ToT offering.

2011 - I don't remember much of this year. It's the last year at the Evol Empire, first year at the lab... so a lot of change.

Thor - Do I have issues with the myth breaking? Yes. But as a superhero movie goes, it was a fun romp. (Personal opinion, the Thor franchise is a bit weaker overall than some of the others).
Captain America: The First Avenger - I loved this one. It's the only one of the CA movies I unilaterally love.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes - OH HELL YEAH. Even having a bunch of actors that I don't usually care for in it could not kill my love of this! And yes, I did watch the originals, but still love this modern take on it.
War Horse - Still uncertain why I chose to watch this, but wound up enjoying the wandering tale greatly.

Green Lantern - On the list because, much as I love Hal, I despised this movie so much in the first 15 minutes I stopped watching it.
Transformers: Dark of the Moon - The novelization was better, and it spawned epic AUs from me and my co-writer at the time.

AO3 Link | Lessons In Living and Death (100 words) by Merfilly
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Forever Knight
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Characters: Janette DuCharme
Additional Tags: Drabble, Introspection, Canonical Character Death
Summary:

Janette, reflecting over lessons

Lessons in Living and Death

There had been a time when Janette had been certain she knew just what life, and death, were all about. She could have all of the pretty things she wished, craft games to entertain her, and enjoy Nick's company.

Then he arrived in her city after a long absence, and things began falling apart. From his near-killing of their creator to his wanton embroilment in human policies and lives, Nick was upending every rule of her existence. His partner and his love interest alike added to the chaos.

Meeting Robert changed everything.

Losing him was a bitter lesson of loss.

Creators are now revealed, and you can continue enjoying the collection here.

The final tally on the treat sheet was 79 out of the starting 225 -- that puts us just shy of reaching tier 2 (75 remaining). That's still a very good percentage, so cheers to the valiant treaters!

Thank you everyone for another wonderful Trick or Treat!

AO3 Link | Opinions Shared (300 words) by Merfilly
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: M.A.S.H. (MASH) [TV]
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Characters: Sherman T. Potter, Mildred Potter, Margaret J. "Hot Lips" Houlihan
Additional Tags: Triple Drabble, Post-Canon
Summary:

Sherman wanted Margaret's opinion

Opinions Shared

"Thank you, Mrs. Potter," Margaret said, accepting the hot mug of coffee.

"Dear, when will you call me 'Mildred'?"

Margaret shook her head. "The same day I call your husband something other than Colonel," she answered with a smile, and they laughed. That would be never, then.

"You could, you know," said husband opined, shifting in his rocking chair. "I do appreciate you swinging out here."

"I had friends at Lost in the Woods," Margaret said, making her old friend smile for the use of that particular nickname for the local army base. "Of course I was going to come here before heading to Ft. Bliss."

Mildred had settled in her own rocker, watching the vibrant woman that was like a daughter to Sherm.

"So what are your thoughts on the nursing schools from my last letter?" Sherman asked his friend and former head nurse.

"My biggest advice is to avoid any of the diploma schools," Margaret said seriously. "We're seeing a serious change in how nursing is handled, and the traction for degree programs is there." She looked vindicated and hopeful all in one. "Parker Memorial, up in Columbia has an excellent degree program. It's not the closest to you, but it's the one I think will do your granddaughter best in the long run."

"Told you," Mildred said with a nod.

"So you did," Sherman said. "From what me and the missus read up, it looks like they're taking the transition to full degrees seriously, and I know some of the staff up there."

Margaret had to smile at that. "I'd be surprised if you didn't know at least one doctor on staff at all the teaching hospitals by now. Between your children and grandchildren deciding to follow your later career."

"Better for them," Sherman avowed, nodding sagely.

NBC (USA) and Peacock streaming will have a full-movie-cast program called Wicked: One Wonderful Night tonight from 8:00pm - 10:00pm ET. It will also be available for streaming beginning tomorrow at 8:00pm on Peacock.

If you don't get NBC where you are and haven't invested in Peacock, you can get a 7-day free trial of Peacock and shut it off as soon as you've seen the special.
