Round 19, Hour 1 - no, make that Hour Negative 3

[lolmac]

Welcome to Round 19! 

ETA:  We were so excited about the rush that I misread the schedule.  But hey, if you're here, feel free to start writing.

We now return you to your irregularly scheduled badinage.

Watch out for the alien fish!  There are also rumours of savage alien platypuses, who are planning to attack the savage alien platypi and resolve, for once and for all, what the plural form really ought to be.

So, welcome!  Who's here?  What are you working on?  And what plural form do you favour?

I'm here, and kind of new to boot! I personally avoid using plural forms if I can help it simply because I always feel like I am going to muk them up. XD It occasionally makes life complicated.

I have no idea what I am going to be working on yet. Probably Sanctuary/Sherlock crossover fics because that particular verse is my guilty pleasure right now

[lolmac]

Guilty pleasures are fine things, as well as being easy to mention in plural form.

Welcome!

I'm here at the moment! Hopefully I'll get a story finished, or at least worked on a bit, this weekend.

And my favorite plural is "us".

:^)

[lolmac]

That's a splendid plural and a splendid goal. Glad you could be here!

For my own part, I'm going to be working on a Stargate story, and hopefully making Much Progress.

And I'm very smug about Toyota establishing that the plural of Prius is Prii.

Stargate, yay! :-)

*blinks* What. I THOUGHT I GOT HERE EARLY?

[lolmac]

*facepalm* I misread my own damned schedule. Well, I guess we get to hit the replay button.

Hurrah, I'd forgotten it was this weekend! I'm hoping to be here at least part of the time; I'll probably be alternating between some technical writing for work and a Babylon 5 fic. Possibly some bizarre fusion of the two.

My very favourite plural is "mongooses", just for its sheer cussedness.

[lolmac]

Do we get Babylon 5 fic featuring a technical writer and a horde of mongooses?

[eponymous-rose.livejournal.com]

...this is now my backup plan. Since said technical writing is on the subject of satellites, the whole thing is starting to seem weirdly plausible.

[lolmac]

Satellites suffering from MONGOOSE INFESTATION.

[eponymous-rose.livejournal.com]

Or, for added meta, I could write about a technical report suffering from MONGOOSE INFESTATION.

[curuchamion.livejournal.com]

I want to read this now. :-)

Squee! *tackleglomps you*

(Yes, I have missed you massively. :D)

[eponymous-rose.livejournal.com]

I'm glad to be (sorta) back! I've missed my fandoms so. :D

I see we've started early, so I'll probably come back once the regular schedule begins. Hurrah!

[sid]

Did somebody lose track of time zones or something? *g*

Anyway. I might work on some the red ink is overwhelming! beta notes during the next hour.

o look, there's a time zone

[lolmac]

I certainly did. Not aided by the fact that I was out of town at a techie conference yesterday and the day before, and I'm still short of sleep.

(I gather that would be why Hour 2 has gone astray?)
