"I would like to extend to you an invitation to the pants party. The party with the...with the pants. The party with pants."
"Brick, are you saying there's a party in your pants and I'm invited?" (Anchorman)

No, actually the party is in the comments of this entry! Come and join the fun and meet new people in SV fandom. I would especially like to encourage you quiet folks lurking in the back--even those of you without livejournals of your own--to drop by and introduce yourselves. We're all a pretty friendly bunch here, and we like to make new friends. Fandom is more fun when you get involved and meet people, so why don't you stop by and say hi?

Here's a little mini-questionnaire, almost completely stolen from

svmadelyn's glee week social, in case you need a conversation starter, but feel free to answer as many or as few questions as you are interested in answering:

1. Tell us something about yourself:
2. Likes (characters, ships, genres, TV shows, actors, real life stuff):
3. Dislikes (characters, ships, genres, TV shows, actors, real life stuff) :
4. What got you interested in Smallville?
5. What are your favorite SV episodes?
6. What SV fanfic do you reread most often?
7. Random facts (favorite food, color you wouldn't be caught dead wearing, pets' names, number of pairs of shoes you own, where you would live if you were a billionaire, etc.)

Happy delurking day! Come join the party!

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

1. Tell us something about yourself:

I'm in my late 40s, and have been married to the same man for over 25 years. I've been a slasher all my life: when I was a child, it was always two men I imagined hugging and kissing, long before I found out just what came after that. I have a cat who carries socks.

2. Likes (characters, ships, genres, TV shows, actors, real life stuff):

I love Lex. I love CLex. I can enjoy Bruce/Lex, as long as it doesn't interfere with the CLex (that is, as long as Lex hasn't met Clark yet, or is with Bruce because he thinks he can't have Clark). And I can sometimes appreciate Lionel/Lex, if it's written as undeniably twisted and wrong.

3. Dislikes (characters, ships, genres, TV shows, actors, real life stuff) :

As a general rule, I don't like threesomes. And I usually can't stand Clark with anyone but Lex. Also, I have a problem with characters who are nasty to Lex, so I've never liked Jonathan, I stopped liking Pete when he started griping about Lex (and that was AFTER Lex had saved his life in "Jitters"!), and I stopped liking Chloe when she climbed on the 'Lex is evil' bandwagon. Also, lately, I just want to smack Clark.

4. What got you interested in Smallville?

Not really being a Superman fan, I'd paid no attention to the ads for SMALLVILLE before it aired. But I happened to flip to the right channel just as the pilot episode was starting, so I decided -- for lack of anything better to do -- to take a look. As soon as I'd seen the accident that introduced Clark and Lex, I was hooked. The kiss of life before they'd even been introduced? MR's gorgeous Lex? TW's ultra-pretty Clark? Oh, yeah!

5. What are your favorite SV episodes?

The pilot, Jitters, Shattered, Asylum, Transference.

6. What SV fanfic do you reread most often?

"Divergence" and the rest of the 'Identical' series by Lanning Cook, "Planets Crashing to Dust" by Brighid, "Incarnadine" and "Switch: A Comedy of Terror" by RivkaT, "Aphrodesia" and "That Old Schizophrenic Jealousy" by Lenore, "Along Came a Spider" by Thamiris, "Champagne Wishes" by Te, "Closer to Breathing" by Jenn, "No Obstacle" and "Backfired" by Bren Antrim, "Mouse: A Definition" by Henry Jones, Jr.

7. Random facts (favorite food, color you wouldn't be caught dead wearing, pets' names, number of pairs of shoes you own, where you would live if you were a billionaire, etc.)

I'm on medication for OCD. I have virtually no maternal instincts when it comes to human children, but very strong maternal instincts when it comes to cats. And I hate moving (and travel!) so much that, if I were given a billion dollars, I'd still stay right where I am.

Wow, you are really, really brand-spankin' new. Hello, there! Glad I decided to check this thread again. I'm a vidder, not a fic-writer, but I friended you anyway because I like your style. :D Hope to see you around.

Hello! I'll have to look up your vids. Are they CLex?

Yes, most of my vids are Clex. You can find my most recent one here: http://talitha78.livejournal.com/95040.html . I hope you enjoy them. :)

Ooooh -- your "Clear the Area" vid is gorgeous! I'll have to run through all the rest, too. Thanks!

Thank you! Glad you liked it.

Hi there! Nice to meet you! Thanks for delurking. Sorry that the party has died down so much.

I just got "Planets Crashing to Dust" this morning when I was hitting the random story generator on SSA. Brighid only wrote five stories in this fandom, but I swear each one is a jewel.

Brighid's stories are amazing, but "Planets Crashing to Dust" is my favorite. It rips my heart up every time, but the ending is worth it.

Hi! You seem cool. I'm friending you!

Thanks for the friending! My own livejournal is basically empty, but I will enjoy checking out yours.

Took a look around your livejournal, and I love your episode reviews and your manips. (Couldn't access the WIP you linked to on 1/14/06, though.) Your story "Scent Triggers the Memory" is both beautiful and eerie, and I enjoyed it very much.

Thank you for the lovely feed-back!

The WiP I mention has been changed to private status in compliance with the SVBB challenge rules. Hopefully you'll be able read it when the dead line has passed, in August.
