When I'm working, it's about this point of the evening that I really start climbing the walls. I've read my f-list several times, and have to stop myself from pressing 'refresh' every two minutes as I try to remember that other people, you know, have lives and things. I still refresh my email every two minutes on the basis that you never know.

I've shelved every book that was out, I've checked and rechecked the renewals email account (nada) and I'm just starting to contemplate the various ficlets I want to write. The Watching Years is completely and utterly stalled, but I've got a few other thoughts to play with. But the boredom overtakes even that.

I've decided that the discussion group should have its own comm, so as not to interfere with the smooth running of the library - I'm going for "tw_fic_club" unless anyone has any more inspired ideas. Will create tomorrow, ready for chatting next week some time. I could do coursework, but the notes are at home. *sigh*

I am therefore forced to fall back on memage:
[gakked from pretty much everyone]

Name a character and I'll tell you three (or more) facts about them from my own personal pseudo-canon.

Fictional or original characters (all the minor characters in The Waiting/Wandering Years have full back-stories. yes, really, all of them), or pick someone random from my interests list.

If you get no reply, I've actually died of boredom. Or gone home.

EDIT: The latter is now true! Thanks guys, you're lifesavers :)

*makes sympathetic noises*

I've already asked you loads about my favourite OCs, so I'll ask you about my favourite TW character - Ianto. Seeing as no-one's asking me about him *sulks*

(I forgot to say that people could ask me about my OCs *shuffles off to edit post*)

*grin* we're just mean like that.

Right, Ianto:

1. He's much closer to his grandmother than his mother, and she's very much the parent-figure in his life.

2. He didn't really enjoy university that much - never really got into it. He had one or two close friends, but mostly found it big and overwhelming so he put his head down, worked, and came out with a respectable if not spectacular degree. In something like PPE, I think.

3. He has a secret penchant for country music, though he'd die before he admitted it.

Will that do?

*grin* Very nice - and of course he's closer to Marion than he is to Vanessa!

terrylj made the mistake of asking me about Ianto - I had to force myself to stop at 14...

awesome icon!

I usually ABHOR those "im in ur..." icons. (Me? Obsessive about grammar? ABSOLUTELY NOT.) I will, however, have to make an exception for this one, because it is just AWESOME. And I love that picture of Jack!

Heheh - Jades will tell you I'm a complete grammar nazi, but this icon made me smile - it's by cscottd if you want to pinch it.
