3 – For each of the fandoms from day two, what were your favorite characters to write?

BtVS/AtS: Willow, Angelus, Spike, and to a lesser extent: Harmony

How I Met Your Mother: Barney, Lily

Harry Potter: Lucius Malfoy, Hermione

Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, Leverage, Firefly, Bones, Glee, Heroes, and Dollhouse: I really haven't written much for any of these fandoms and a majority of them got written because of drabble requests. :D

I'd like to offer a brief follow-up to yesterday's post because although I won't be going to see S for another few weeks yet, I thought long and hard about the role I needed to fill. I also talked about it with a number of folks so I feel pretty confident about my decision.

That decision is this:

I will be going down to visit her, her husband, and Anthony (after the wave of family members has disipated somewhat.) I will come bearing a mini-gift (most likely a fun board book) and home-made chocolate chip cookies (or a strawberry cheesecake because I know S loves those). If she hasn't been able to squeeze in a shower during one of Anthony's naps or during a time when B is home, I will volunteer to keep an eye on the little guy while she does so. I will also volunteer to run out and grab a gallon of milk or bread if it's needed.

In other news, I've learned that the working world is a bit like the dating world. Once you have employment, more people want you.

I say this because I just got a call from Renewal Unlimited (a place where I could work with families, but not get hours towards my license) and they want me to come in for an interview. I did make the decision to decline the offer, however, as I feel like I'm stirring too many pots as it is.

I think you've got a good plan for your visit. :)

It's nice to be in demand.

[snogged.livejournal.com]

Glad you think so.

And it is nice to be in demand.

I think your plan sounds perfect.

And I think it was very mature to turn down the interview since you've already got so much going on. And hopefully if ever needed they'll still keep you in mind for the future!

[snogged.livejournal.com]

I hope so!

(Funniest part about them though? Last year, I applied for a position with them right after finishing grad school, never got a call, but got a letter thanking for me for coming to an interview. It was really weird.)

[secondmezzanine.livejournal.com]

LOL. Sounds like they could use someone in their office helping to keep things organized... :P

We have Willow and Spike in common... I don't think I'd be so good at Angelus.

I think that you made the right decision about what you should do when you go see your friend and the baby. It makes sense to me.

I also think you made the right decision about the job interview. If it won't count towards your license then really it would be of no use to you, so why bother?

*hugs and love*

That's interesting to hear how much you're enjoying writing Harmony.

*hugs you lots*

Yes, it's funny about jobs - you always get offers when you already have one.

I have a hard time writing her a major player, but she's a lot of fun for smaller roles.

I find Angelus intriguing, both in terms of his bravado and his sociopathic tendencies. Sadly, I haven't been feeling the evil lately so it looks like my Angelus writing will be taking an even longer break than SDS has.

Your plan for visiting sounds solid.

[snogged.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

[rckstr-princess.livejournal.com]

I think that's totally reasonable and fair about visiting your friend.

[snogged.livejournal.com]

Thanks!
