Sorry I've been absent. In addition to RL work stuff (which I won't get into detail about, but I've almost quit my job several times), I also wrenched my back (such that sitting for longer than 5 minutes makes me want to chop off my leg). I know I say it all the time, but I really do intend on catching up! I've since stopped my second (and third) ( Read more... )

Oh, how about Elizabeth Weir? :)

meredith44 November 14 2010, 05:51:17 UTC

I haven't seen that show yet (on my Netflix list), so anything specific? (I wouldn't mind "obtaining" an episode to gif.)

Ha, I'm so horrible at this. Nothing really comes to mind, sorry!

meredith44 November 14 2010, 05:56:42 UTC

Not your fault I'm fail on the Netflixing. (I might have had the latest True Blood disc out for a month. Not admitting anything.)

See I thought femslash land was all about the slash part, so I've learned something :) Also, hope your back gets better soon - and work too!

Gifs? I can't remember the NCIS episode but Ziva did a badass Lara Croft-esque 2 handed shootout in an apartment that would be awesome. I think it was last season but could have been earlier; she also calmly talking to Gibbs on her hands-free the entire time.

There are some good suggestions in the comments here - Leverage's Parker, for instance :)

The writing challenges are, but the graphics challenges often have an option of just using a single female or females not necessarily in a pair.

And thanks for the good thoughts. :)

OOOOHHHH, I wish that we knew what episode that was from. I totally don't remember seeing that, but it sounds awesome.

I might have to try my googlefu.

Thanks for your input!

How about Kate dancing with that veteran?

meredith44 November 15 2010, 02:15:50 UTC

That was one of the first scenes I thought of, and I really tried to get it to work (by just focusing on her face), but it is too obvious she's dancing with a guy, which doesn't quite work for femslash land. I might do it as an extra later.

Anything else you can think of?

janetmaca November 15 2010, 02:27:16 UTC

I can't think of any; it's been so long.

meredith44 November 15 2010, 02:40:56 UTC

It doesn't have to be NCIS. I'm also going to do other shows. But if you can't think of any, don't worry about it. I have a bunch to work on for now. :)

Ooh, I'd wanted to join femslash_land before, but I don't think I knew anyone in it at the time. Is it fun? :D

Obviously I've gotta throw in the suggestion of Veronica Palmer. ;D I mean, there are little to no gifs of Better off Ted at all. But I know you haven't seen it yet, so IDK!

But if you wanted to do it anyway, try Beating a Dead Workforce from season two. I remember there being some good moments with Linda and Veronica in that, so it's always worth a shot. :D (Plus, it's only twenty-ish minutes long and a great episode in general.)

I really like the challenges. I have not, however, really connected with my team. As you say, I don't really know anyone there. I love the focus on female characters (from any show/movie, pretty much!) so I'm going to stay, but it feels more like a "regular" challenge to me than a "land comm" challenge. I asked to switch teams, as I know a couple of people on another team, so we'll see if that helps.

I've seen the first two episodes! And I did really like it. I tried to make a gif of the first episode (where Veronica does that little nod after Ted affirms her pumpkin pie stance), but I couldn't figure out how to get it to cap properly from an avi. I've asked everythingshiny, as I know she caps from .avis, so we'll see. Maybe?

tictactardis November 15 2010, 03:11:55 UTC

Aw, yeah. That sucks. I hope the new team is better for you. :] You'll have to let me know how it goes! Once I have more time I'm going to have to consider joining again. I just love the premise too much, lol. And now with you talking about the focus on female characters, it seems like fun, challenge-wise.

Oh yay! :D I'm glad you liked them! (I get worried I over-talk these things, lol.) ...Funnily enough I remember exactly what moment you're talking about. (Oh god I've rewatched this show so many times within the last few months.) Good luck! With the challenge and the .avi thing!

sorry about your back! i've always had back problems so I get how crappy that is. hope it's better *hugs*

have you seen Alias? cause I'd love Irina, but if not that's cool :D

meredith44 November 16 2010, 18:18:28 UTC

I've seen about 2/3 of Alias (haven't seen most of the third season) and Irina is my favorite character! I only have the first season on DVD (and can't figure out how to make gifs from avis at the moment), but if there is a scene or something from that season that you'd like, let me know. (Otherwise I might look through it on my own.)
