Fandom status and requests

[inteligrrl]

HP fandom thing that's irritating me today: Fred and George being present in Harry's 6th year. Fred and George take their newts during Harry's fifth year, which means they're out. It's as if the author is saying "I like Fred and George, I want them around to contribute plot devices, therefore I'll just keep them and hope no one will notice." Though that's probably got to many syllables in it to be their exact reasoning.

*feels snide*

Anyhow, I'm on spring break and therefore have a decent amount of time on my hands. This frees me up to offer/request three things.

1. Anyone have any fics they'd like to see me continue? More work in a particular series? Leave a comment and I'll see what I can do. I promise to post at least one snippet at the end of the week.

3. I've looked everywhere for a picture of Ilya Kabakov's Man Who Flew To The Moon From His Apartment. If you happen across it please let me know. I'll be eternally grateful.

3. I'd greatly appreciate recs for the following fandoms:

Buffy The Vampire Slayer - Spike/Buffy and Buffy/Giles, as well as any story you find particularly inspiring.

StarTrek TNG - Preferably Picard/Q but if you're dying to rec me something else feel free. I'm particularly itching from P/Q post Nemesis.

Highlander - I've caught the Duncan/Methos bug in a major way. Give me. Give me now. (Joe/Ritchie is not objected to though *g*)

Harry Potter - I've read nearly everything, but if there's some underdog fic that's not well known feel free to rec. Also, anyone know some good Fred/George? I'm in the mood for twincest.

Sports Night - Casey/Dan is just the most perfect thing, I wish more people had watched this show just so I could find more slash (not to mention still have it on air).

X-Men: I've been out of the fandom for a few years, so any particularly good fics would be welcome. I'm currently on a Bobby/Hank fix, but as it's an underwritten couple I'll cherish any recs. Just about anything Jubilee centric is also welcome.

LotR - Frodo/Aragorn/Gandalf, in any combination. Also, Legolas/Gimli or the endearing trinity of Boromir!Merry!andPippin! (say it like you'd swear Jesus, Mary and Joseph. *g*)
RPS:

NSync - I don't suppose anyone knows where I can find Helen's fics? her site www.helenish.org doesn't seem to be working, and she's all I hear about. I will say my preferred pairing is Justin/Lance, though I've got a minor fetish for Eminem/JC.

LotR - Vigo/Lij is my fav, though I would like to see a Lij/Ian.

Any DanLij's that haven't been posted to The Handbasket? do let me know where to find them.

LOLOLOL mistaken years is one of my largest pet peeves about the fandom...i've noticed SO many people do it. it makes me scowl and flip back every time. right up next to that is inadequate description of physical movements--you can't have someone be holding someone else up against a wall, then be on their back, then back pressing them against the wall again without EXPLANATION. if you're going to be specific about physical placement, be CONSISTENT. (explicit description of postures/hand placements that don't in fact make anatomical sense are included with that.)

GAAAAH.
