H/t to miss_porcupine: Spoilery casting news for White Collar that makes me, and I suspect, most of fandom, very happy. The url itself is spoilery so spoilerphobes beware hovering over the link.

There really is no business like Cho business! Which is to say, The Mentalist, I ♥ you. Ok, you too SPN. Keep it up :)

It's Friday, so it must be ( polltime! )

Random meme (paraphrased, that I don't remember who to attribute to):
If you had me at your mercy and could make me draw anything, what would you make me draw? Not that it's guaranteed that I will, since, you know, not at your mercy and all that, but still. I'm curious.

Got the idea of this from glockgal who got it from tbranch who got it from draykonis (further provenance unknown), so, fancypants end of year fanart summary calendar image below.

Total output: ~30 (all my art here). I drew for SGA, SPN, Star Trek, Merlin, White Collar, Mentalist and, somehow, Mulan. And even managed to squeeze Daniel Henney into a piece right near the end :D Not sure what that collection really says about the progressive or regressive quality of my work as the year went on, but the Teyla fire-eater picture does look like one of the coolest pieces I've ever managed to come up with :) My resolutions for next year are to finally start that star trek reverse bang thing, draw MORE, and if I do get a paid account, post nonsensical polls every week. Because no Friday seems complete without a bit of gibberish.

Totally unrelated, anyone read any How I met Your Mother fic? I find Metal heart to be one of the best Barney/Robin stories I've come across, but anyone have any recs for other stories with ensemble or Barney and/or Robin in them? I ♥ NPH.

Kissing Meme
Comment here with a picture of a kiss. The people in the photo don't matter, they're there for reference, not content. The only requirement is that it be a good quality photo. Give me a pairing from any of my fandoms and I'll give you that kiss back to you with your pairing in it.

Fandoms: SGA, SPN and, though I've never drawn them before, willing to make a go at Leverage and Merlin.

Things to note: Het or slash (f/f, m/m) is welcome. I love drawing women. For SPN, no Sam/Dean, but slash is otherwise fine. Reference images need to be larger than icon size. I work pretty slowly, so no guarantees as to when or if I'll get to your suggestion, but I will try my best :)

Tagged by big_pink and smilla02, 20 questions and your answers with options to change any questions you don't like.

Because I like talking about myself, ( all that and some poetry too! )

Not tagging anyone but if you want to do this, please let me know because I would definitely like to read them :)

P.S: I just put on dark blue nailpolish on my toe-nails. I feel like I need to match up to it with my art, but sadly, all I can think of is cherry blossoms. Not particularly fitting.

P.P.S: Almost forgot, Team Teyla AU challenge. Team fic/art challenge with a definite emphasis on all of them. The name, IMO, is slightly misleading, but I guess it's a way to ensure it's all team all the time and not J/R with the other two just there happenstance. Info post here

Free stuff meme, slightly edited:
For the first five people that reply to me, I will send you something. It might be something I've made, or something cool from my hidden stash, it might be a mix CD, or a rubber duck, a book I think you will enjoy, or something else that is awesome. Whatever it is, I promise that I will get it to you in 365 days or fewer. The only thing you need to do in order to participate is to be one of the first five to reply to this.
