So there are a lot of new people around here lately, (Hiiii, Inception fandom) and I should totally do an introduction post but I'm lazy and have no idea what to say in one of those other than, hi, I'm Nichole and I enough flailing about things I love. SO.

Whether you just stumbled upon this journal or you've been around here for ages, if there's anything you've ever wanted to know, from my favorite color to my favorite movie to the thing I dreamed about being when I was in kindergarten-- Anyway, I'm opening myself up for questions if you've got them, (I say as though I'm usually not) so ask anything you want and I will give you either an honest or ridiculous answer!

Hey :)

What's the best part of your week? And what are you looking forward to doing over winter break?

[angelgazing.livejournal.com]

Fandom is pretty much always the very best part of my week, in some way or another. ♥♥♥

And, oh, oh, over winter break, I'm looking forward to Programming class being over. I wish it was something more fun and exciting, but mostly, JUST NOT BEING THERE. LOL

[popcorn-orgasms.livejournal.com]

That will also be my favorite part of the break. And also, not being up until 5 am writing papers. That will be particularly lovely. :)

What's bringing you joy in fandom this week?

[angelgazing.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah? What sort of classes are you taking? LOLOL Oh, man, I sort of miss papers, because I can BS my way through those at 5 am. None of my classes this semester really allow me to do that except in a few rare cases my federal government class.


The people in this fandom, really. gyzym and aredblush are two of the best people in the world for making even the shittiest days better. Also, though I've always sworn off WIPs, The Maillard Reaction (http://cherrybina.livejournal.com/160956.html?thread=7737532#t7737532) is just a constant producer of joy.

LOL I always forget that there are people who don't know my name. LOL I guess because I had it as my LJ name for so long before I switched to quotes? I don't know.

Random fact: Nichole is actually my middle name. This is the most confusing thing in the world for a lot of my professors.

Answers!

1.) When I was super little, I had a Strawberry Shortcake doll that I adored because her hair smelled like strawberries and I wanted mine to do the same.
2.) LOLOL I am a big fan of comfort food, and I grew up in my great uncle's restaurant, so for me that's a lot of pasta and homemade sour dough bread. But my favorite is probably baked potato soup, which my family makes differently from all the rest I've seen, but mmm so very good.
3.) EVERYWHERE. Well, everywhere outside of very cold climates. I'll visit those when it's warm.
4.) WELL AFTER YOU COULD GET IT ONLINE I'M GUESSING. *coughs*
5.) Oooh NOW I GET WHY PEOPLE ARE ALL "!!!" WHEN I TRY TO MAKE THEM PICK THAT FOR ME. Um. Um. RESTAURANT AU!

Here are my questions:
1. How are you so talented?
2. Do you excercise everyday to be this awesome or is it natural?
3. If the dream-sharing business thingie was real, what role would you play in a team? (I think your Nancy would be amazing with mazes, btw)
4. What is your favourite fairytale? Has it changed since you were a child?
5. Kiss, shag, marry or cliff - the fictional version : Arthur, Tom Hansen, Cameron James, Brendan Frye.
6. How much do you hate me for the last question?

[angelgazing.livejournal.com]

Answers:
1. I'm pretty sure you're applying the word "talented" far too liberally, but, um, I've been making up stories for as long as I can remember?
2. In my house, exercise is a dirty word. My awesomeness is obviously the most natural thing about me.
3. I would totally be the Arthur. I'm a details-oriented sort of person. To, you know, put it in less Nichole-Is-Crazy-Pants terms.
4. Beauty and the Beast, for the Disney version. Though I'm also beyond fond of the Grimm version of Cinderella.
5. Marry Tom (he's a total romantic), shag Arthur (... for obvious reasons), kiss Brendan (making out is totally on his list of random kick ass skills), and cliff Cameron because he's too hung up on what's her name to be any fun.
6. OH MY GOD SO MUCH. ALSO NOW YOU HAVE TO ANSWER IT, TOO.

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

1. Not at all bb. I truly think you're amazingly talented <3
2. Damn. Here I was, hoping for tips...
6. AHAHAH! I would answer it in the same way (and for the same reasons, too) :P You can give me other people, though, if you want :)

[angelgazing.livejournal.com]

1. ♥♥♥
2. WHATEVER YOU ARE TOTALLY AWESOME ALL ON YOUR OWN.
6. Fiiiine. Handsome Bob, Eames, and Tom Hardy.(Cliff, Shag and Marry is one of my favorite games.)

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

2. ♥♥♥♥
6. D:< I hate you so much. Shag Bob (he's not meant for me but a bit of fun never hurt anyone), marry Eames (so we can collect marriage licenses together ♥) and cliff Tom (he survived wuthering heights once, I'm sure a little cliff will be a walk in the park :P)

[angelgazing.livejournal.com]

6. Liiiiies. YOU LOVE ME EVEN THOUGH I STILL OWE YOU OMG SO MUCH FIC.

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

IT'S NOT LIKE I DON'T OWE YOU OMG SO MUCH ART! I'll try to draw something before the weekend :(

[sleepismyfriend.livejournal.com]

Why are limes green?

Yeah, that's all I've got. It's too early for being witty.

[angelgazing.livejournal.com]

It's a camouflage to protect them from predators.

[elucreh.livejournal.com]

What other fandoms have you been in before?

[prettykitty-aya.livejournal.com]

ahahahahaha, yeah, Nichole, tell us! :PPPP

[angelgazing.livejournal.com]

DO NOT MOCK ME. MONOGAMY IS NOT THE ONLY WAY OF LIFE, OKAY. DDDD:

[prettykitty-aya.livejournal.com]

...and they say I'm greedy. :PPPP

[angelgazing.livejournal.com]

I just say until you stop turning everything into GSF you cannot mock me for loving ALL OF THE FANDOMS. :p

[angelgazing.livejournal.com]

AHAHAHAHAHA OH GOD, OKAY I AM CUTTING THIS OFF FROM BEFORE LIKE, 2004.

Past fandoms (though some of these are still on going, and I didn't always write for them):
Glee
Bandom
Being Human
Supernatural
(And I'm just gonna lump J2 in with that)
Merlin (Which I'm sad I never actually wrote for)
Merlin RPF
Ocean's 11
Psych
White Collar
Sports Night
Scrubs
Veronica Mars
House
CSI: NY & Vegas
Firefly
Good Omens
Harry Potter
Arrested Development


That... probably isn't all, actually, but it's starting to hurt my brain. LOL

[elucreh.livejournal.com]

You know, I think you and I could be friends. ^_~

[angelgazing.livejournal.com]

LOL I thought I'd seen your name around bandom. What other fandoms are your fandoms?

[elucreh.livejournal.com]

Bandom, Supernatural/J2, Merlin, Psych, White Collar, Scrubs--I've sort of poked around Sports Night but never really been active in it--Veronica Mars, House, Firefly, Good Omens, and Harry Potter I've read extensively and fandomed at least a little in. Bandom, Spn, HP, and House I dedicated large portions of my time and attention to.

Plus a few you didn't mention: SGA, Leverage, some American Idol (mostly just the stuff by big SGA names, but...that's a lot of fic), Big Time Rush, all the Gordon Korman fandoms, a dash of Doctor Who/Torchwood, and then light reading in Due South, Eureka, Hawaii Five-0, HSM, NCIS, Sherlock, Nu!Trek, Smallville, and the West Wing. Plus a lot of fandoms that are so small they basically only exist at Yuletide, plus probably some I've forgotten.

Phew. Yeah, okay, I see what you mean about hurting brains. :D

[moleskinned.livejournal.com]

QUESTIONS!

What are your favorite fannish tropes and/or fanfic cliches?
What are the next three fics on your to-write list and when can we read them omg
IS THAT THE TWITTER FAIL WHALE? :o
What is the backstory on your username
Have you and aredblush and gyzym always been in cahoots or did you just fall into this fandom and find each other?
IF ARTHUR HAD AN EAMES (comfortably) TIED UP AND (comfortably) GAGGED IN A ROOM WITH NO WINDOWS, WHAT WOULD HE DO WITH HIM?

[angelgazing.livejournal.com]

Answers!

1. Oh, OH GOD LONG LIST. Top three: fake boyfriends, accidentally married, and pining/UST.

2. UM. NEXT ON MY LIST: 5 Places on Arthur that Eames likes to kiss most, the ballroom!AU, and... probably the hair pulling fic. I HAVE NO IDEA WHEN I FAIL AT WRITING IN A TIMELY MANNER. /o\

3. IT MAYBE IS I DON'T KNOW.

4. The story of my username is very boring. LOL Waaaaay back in the day, I was watching Port Charles and one of the characters on there was an angel, so...

5. INCEPTION BROUGHT ME JIZZ, AND I WILL LOVE IT FOREVER FOR THAT. aredblush and I actually ended up friending each other after bonding over Disney cartoons and Panic at the Disco in a Glee friending meme. I spent a lot of time flailing over her drawings, and then over Inception, and how much I thought the two should meet. LOLOL I, um, had her drawing in the fandom before the movie had made it to her country. Actually both of them claim it is my fault they are actually in the fandom? It's sort of a point of pride for me. :D

6. IN THAT (comfortable) SITUATION, THE FIRST THING ARTHUR WOULD DO IS CONVINCE EAMES TO GIVE UP TWEED AND THEN REWARDS HIM FOR THAT DECISION WITHOUT UNTYING HIM.

[laria-gwyn.livejournal.com]

Hi Nichole! There are lots of good questions up above so all I have are these:

1) What are your favorite movies?
2) If you were an animal, what animal would you be and why?
3) Coke or Pepsi?
4) Top 3 favorite Disney movies? (This is totally separate from #1. TOTALLY).
5) If you were a thief, what would you steal?

Feel free to ask questions in return! =)

[angelgazing.livejournal.com]

Oh, oh hard questions. Okay.

1) The Princess Bride, Inception, and, right now at least, (500) days of Summer.

2) One of those tiny, yappy little dogs. Spoiled, loud, and sort of ridiculous looking. LOL

3) Diet Dr. Pepper is my drug of choice, but Pepsi still beats Coke by a mile.

4) TOTALLY DIFFERENT. Um. Um. Wall-e, The Emperor's New Groove, and Beauty and the Beast.

5) I would still everything! Including but not limited to the talent of people who can make words do amazing things. I would like to make that talent miiine.

Man, I can't even think f decent questions. That's just as hard as an intro post. /o\

[laria-gwyn.livejournal.com]

1) I always have trouble narrowing this down, too. I see your movies and raise you Love Actually, Snatch, and Brick.
2) But they are spoiled because we love them! <33
3) I'm a Coke girl myself but Pepsi is always an acceptable substitute. =)
4) Emperor's New Groove! NO TOUCHIE! *fistbump* I'm having trouble picking...ummm Sleeping Beauty, The Lion King, and The Incredibles, with a special place in my heart for The Rescuers.
5) I would like to permanently borrow some of Joss Whedon's talent as well as some of whatever Chris Nolan is on because clearly it is creative gold.

Hi, I have a question: if genius were like swine flu, who would you hang out with?

Just FYI, YOU would be on MY list.

[silentsiren47.livejournal.com]

Hi, just wanted to drop you a note to say I'm friending you because I like your Inception fic.
