I've recently picked up knitting again, though more of as something to do while I'm watching TV than with any creation end goal in mind. What are you currently reading?: Ash, and The Passage (which I'm always at least 25% mad at, and yet am continuing to read because APOCALYPSE). I think we can safely say that I've officially given up on A Dance With Dragons. What are you currently watching?: Lost Girl (finishing up S2), Lost (S5), and a S2 rewatch of Babylon 5.

PART TWO (though oops I appear not to have copy/pasted my answers so let's try this again)
blue sector; [fandom] What are your other main fandoms: For some reason, I am still part of the Grey's Anatomy/Private Practice fandom despite not having watched either show in years except for the GA musical episode and the PrP finale (I wish I knew how to quit you). I write mostly in Grey's, Stargate SG-1, and Babylon 5. But that does branch out. I fell headfirst into The Borgias this December, and have an unofficial goal of writing an Ashes To Ashes AU for every fandom I'm in. ALSO LEVERAGE omg Leverage, I miss you already show. Various incarnations of Star Trek. This paragraph has ceased making sense. Non-B5 character(s) you will flail over: Amelia Earhart (yes, she's a real person, but I have serious feelings about her). NARCISSA FREAKING MALFOY is just perfection in a dye job. Uhmm, I want Vannozza dei Cattanei on my side during a zombie apocalypse because she is the best team mom a lady could ask for and has the most epic
( ... )
I...may have an addiction to making fanmixes. "Lady Stardust" is probably my favorite right now, but that might be because it corresponds to my favorite under-5K fic I've ever written (also because I just really love the cover).

I've already friended you a while back it seems, but a thousand times yes to Jeff/John/Delenn. <3 How can you not? I am also intrigued by your headcanon for the original Grey Council...I'd like to read that fic someday.
Am also in awe of plan to cosplay as Susan--is that as a Ranger or as Army of Light?
The Army of Light uniform. :-) Sheridan's uniform is currently on display at the Paley Center, which is not far from me, so I've already got plans to go down there with my camera and take oodles of pictures for fabric matching. However, this is probably a LONG way off, since I am only just now learning to sew.
The female Ranger would be a separate thing, an original character so to speak.

I am pleased to see our B5 interests are almost exactly the same. But then that's not much of a surprise.
Didn't realise you also liked Jane Rizzoli as well as Xena :) YAY!!!
