The Tudors and The High Lord

I like that title, I like it a lot :).

I've been rereading the Black Magician Trilogy (again) and have discovered that the Novice (bk 2) is the best. Well, it's my favourite, at least, because it's where the Guild is how it should be. Like normal, somewhere I'd actually like to be. Plus, the main character is my age and in high school, and I really relate to her in that one.

And there's plenty of dark!Akkarin, which makes me happy, at least.

I'm up to the High Lord now (bk 3) and Akkarin's getting nicer and nicer. In a good way :)

On an unrelated topic, I read the third Return to Labyrinth comic, which I got for Christmas. I love those comics, they're really in the right style and tone for a sequel. Of course, now there's a massive cliffhanger, and I don't know when book 4 (the final installment) is coming out. I need to make Wikkid.X read them, they're amazing. With the canon J/S-ness, and Moppet! I love Moppet, especially when she has a John Smith/Human Nature moment in the third one.

Aah! I love them so much!

I'm also trying to resurrect my Tudor/Doctor Who fanfic. I found a way of getting Ten/Rose in there, not because of my complete fangirl love of them, but because 'romance' fics get more readers, and hey, it's what I want to read.

I know way, way too much about that historical period. I've been addicted to it since I was ten, and now I get to combine it with DW! I can't believe I had four months without looking at it! It'll go up on ff.net when it's done.

Right, I'm off to play on Brother's new PS3, and watch new Ouran episodes - in HQ because of DVDs.

Catch-Up (again)

Because I'm bored, here we go.

And yes, this is going to be another This-Blog-Is-Shamefully-Neglected Post. Because I have nothing interesting to say except for:

-Exams are HELL
-I get migranes from stress
-Having David Tennant all over everything is like a Christmas Miracle
-Especially reading bedtime stories
-Or dressed as an on-trend Ghost of Christmas Present, in skinnies, eyeliner, a Black Parade-esque jacket and with an accent to rival Alan Cummings in The High Life. And rocking the look like no-one else could.
-Or making me tear up in the Cafe Scene of Doctor Who
-Or chairing Buzzcocks, because that was brilliant.
-Bernard Cribbins is awesome. Like woah.
-Right Said Fred is actually a cool song
-He should write for the Boosh
-I've started a novel, and have over 57000 words so far, meaning I won NaNoWriMo *applause*
-There's a load of new 'Flowers' stories over on Idle Mind
-I now have a stack of books for Christmas up to my knee. My bookshelves are full!

I think that's just about it, really.
