Roll on 19th September
Sep. 3rd, 2009 01:34 amYes, apparently we finally have a confirmed date for the return of Merlin. I can't believe I'm still so head-over-heels for this show given it's technically been on hiatus. Then again, I am used to Torchwood and its tendency to swan in, steal your breath, break your heart, and then bugger off for over a year before the next round. Anyway, the return of the 'magical Welsh wizard' brings joy to my heart and gratuitous recs/spamming.
x. The Series 2 tagline: 'You can't escape destiny'. - DO NOT WANT! Considering how much the show has shredded canon so far I don't think it's too much to ask them to disregard the canon tale of everyone getting trapped/killed/dishonoured/left alone/going mad. In my world destiny will be an unequivocal 'Happily ever after'...
x. Fic: Merlin Emyrs and the Totally Gay Triwizard Tournament - Harry Potter/Merlin AU - great, great fun. In a world without Harry Potter, no obvious Dark Lord, but still with Dumbledores and Aurors and Hogwart's most terrifying headmaster we have Merlin fretting over his teenage years and evolving friendship with Arthur against the background of occasionally saving lives and killing monsters, as you do.
x. Double Your Pleasure. - Crack fic. NC-17 crack-fic involving the old chestnut of being accidentally transformed into forms not entirely human. It made me laugh which is always a good thing in my book.
x. Non-spoilery set report and pics of Bradley and Colin filming series 2. I miss these lads, roll on 19th September.
Non-Merlin:
x. Shut Yer Pie-Hole. For those of you who've been watching SPN season 4, this a cross-over with Life on Mars. As someone who's only seen the odd ep of LoM, this still cracked me up and left me insanely happy. If only this could happen...
x. NEWS: Thousands call for Turing apology - non-fandom for a moment. I'm sad to admit I had never really been told about this guy, but my heart bleeds for him (and all the others) after reading this. Hopefully at the very least more people will start to remember him even if the petition doesn't get its hoped-for apology.
