Dear Creator,

Sorry for the late letter - if you have already gotten started, I'm sure I'll love anything you've done.

Once Upon a Time:


Teen Wolf:

Sailor Moon:

Arrow:

So, a while ago, I signed up for bandomreversebb...



( See the art here... )

Yes, it's MOAR SAILORMOON. Together with reflectedeve, I am once more exploring the fandom of my youth (you could even say, the springtime of my youth, but... wrong fandom) - this time in a series of pieces based on some prompts we came up with.

The first prompt was to redraw/reinvent a page or panel from the manga...


( Since both of us cut our artistic teeth drawing in this style, it was kind of amazing to see how our current styles compare against Naoko Takeuchi's work. )

More importantly, you should all go check out reflectedeve's fantastic reboot of one of the transformation sequences from the manga. I have never seen Sailor Moon look so utterly fierce before, it's pretty fabulous. She took one of the dreamiest, be-ribboned panels from the comic and made it BADASS. That is SKILL, right there.

...and stay tuned, I guess, we have two more prompts for this series!

It's time to post my art for trekreversebang...

When you're wandering through a post-apocalyptic desert wasteland, ray gun at your hip, leather jacket pulled close, and a mildly radioactive can of beans at the bottom of your pack, what do you want to listen to on your radio? Three Dog? Mr. New Vegas?

No.

You want Dr. Death Defying, playing Mad Gear and Missile Kid's latest hits.

(What I'm saying is, we need to start making killjoys mods for Fallout: New Vegas.)

After over a year of making up crazy stuff about mounties and frosting and writing it down, jjtaylor and I have finally posted the fruits of our insane labor over at Bandom Big Bang: Only Going One Way, a Bandom x due South crossover.

All the good stuff is already in the master post, so I'm just going to ramble on under the cut about how it all went down.

( It all started last April... )

So, I got two Yuletide stories, which is AWESOME, both of which where set in the Tanya Huff Smoke series, which is fabulous, and very pleasing, since it's such a tiny fandom, really, and now there are two new stories for it! Technically all for me! <3 (I am trying not to let it go to my head.)

Summer Stretched the Rules by kikibug13: Tony tells Lee about an encounter he, Amy, and Jack had with the youngest queen of the Winter Sidhe court.

This is an awesomely hilarious story in which the world is safe for justice because Tony has enough self control to not eat free, magic pie. If I were Tony... the world would not have been safe for justice. MAGIC PIE <3 Also, it has Jack, Amy, and Lee, my absolute favorite characters from the fandom.

Coitus Magicus by kantayra: Being a wizard has some surprising side-effects in the bedroom.

So, I just COULD NOT STOP LAUGHING. Seriously? Could not. Arra wasn't even IN this, but her crazy commentary on the magic laptop was just made of absolute win. "Penis. You have one. Try not to think with it all the time." Also, I loved that Lee was so worried. <3


Altogether, my first Yuletide was TOTALLY AWESOME. Extra plus thanks to the writers who gave me such cool stories.

ETA to add everyone's secret identities, post reveal.

Dear Yuletide writer,

Beyond what I posted in my requests, anything goes. Also, you can ignore those pretty much entirely, really.
