Oh my. . . Wow!
First of all CONGRATS! to all the other winners! ♥ These banners are awesome.

Thank you so much for the personalised banner! I got an email saying you'd mentioned me in an LJ entry and I went and saw the drabble banner and was like oh, wow! Thanks, and saved it, went to comment, and this email popped up and wow I've got another banner! Such a lovely surprise! Thank you soooo much ♥
I was happy with the One True Drabbler banner, but now, wow, I'm over the moon.

You've gone to sooo much effort with the banners; a thank you doesn't seem enough!!! ♥

[dancingdragon3.livejournal.com]

You earned it! And you're very welcome. Thanks for joining us.

I'm glad you like yours. I haven't seen the Craig Bond movies, so I was just guessing here. But that young Q is adorable and makes me want to watch them now.

Cheers! Hope to make you another banner for August :-)

:D I know, I FINALLY got one fic turned in!!!!!!!!! Haha! I'm quite proud of that actually! :P
Thank you for creating such an interesting challenge com!

:D I do. I love it.
I didn't really like the first Craig Bond movies, but Skyfall was like damn! And that was probably all done to Q. You are so right that Q is adorable.
He's adorable in Spectre as well! :D

:D You're welcome. Oh, I hope so too. I've had an idea about something and hope to get something up. . . :D

You should be proud of getting a fic done! It's very easy to start them, much harder to finish them. Thanks for saying you think PP is interesting. I'm glad. I was worried it might be too different, but I'm really happy with the response it's gotten.

I will have to see if I can watch Skyfall or Spectre for free :-)

Good luck with the writing!

[pony-express.livejournal.com]

Oh, I know, I have soooo many WIPs! :D You're welcome. It's very interesting and different, and different is good. There are so many writing challenge coms that follow the same format. It's so refreshing to see something different.
:D I'm pleased it's been a good response.

Good luck trying to track them down! I wouldn't even know where to start. . .
Although I was once told dailymotion is good spot! Never used it myself though!

Thank you! :D

[dancingdragon3.livejournal.com]

Aw, thanks! That's awesome to hear :-) I try to make it fun and interesting.

And Skyfall is now at the top of my Netflix queue. Of course, the last disc from them wouldn't play in my computer, so we'll see...

[pony-express.livejournal.com]

:D You're welcome! It is very fun and interesting! :D

I hope you enjoy it. Let me know what you think when you do get around to watching it! :D I hope it works!

*fangirls my banner* ♥

It looks amazing! The scene you've chosen, the colors and design of the text - they're just so perfect. Thank you very much!

[dancingdragon3.livejournal.com]

Yay, I'm glad you like it! Thanks to you for keeping your story going :-)

[a-phoenixdragon.livejournal.com]

So much loveliness!! this is awesome, bb!!

*HUGS*

[dancingdragon3.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

HUGS

[luminations.livejournal.com]

Got it, thank you! Lovely as always! I was wondering what the heck you were gonna do for this one, LOL. While a picture of Joel's ass in the moonlight would have been nice, there are no game screencaps of that, and although there SHOULD be fanart because it's a worthy subject, I have no idea if it exists. *snicker*

[dancingdragon3.livejournal.com]

I implore you, do not google 'Joel - naked - last of us'! Resist the urge! There is too much not right stuff out there. OMG. So much very wrong.

But lucky for both of us, I just found a jackpot for Last of Us pics that don't require brain bleach - Facebook. Finally, it's good for something besides stalking ex's, lol!

[luminations.livejournal.com]

Uh... well now I have a very strong urge to do just that, naturally, but I shall refrain and thank you for sparing me the brain bleach :) I'm getting ready to post my puzzle fic and I still have to do the newsletter after so I don't need the distraction!

Oh wow, guess I'll have to keep writing then!

[dancingdragon3.livejournal.com]

Cheers for more posting!

Okay, let's be honest. We're all adults here. I'm sure you would find at least one thing that "interested" you. But, seriously, there is so much wrong to wade through...I'm honestly concerned it would put you off your writing. And I'm a total perv saying this, lol!

[luminations.livejournal.com]

And even MORE! I'll apologize in advance for the spam -- now that I'm done with my fic I want to be DONE, so I'm posting a master list, and then I'll link it in aanime_fan like you suggested, even if that will only bring more crickets chirping :) Ya never know!

LOL wow, must be bad. I've actually seen some questionable stuff in the fandom already, courtesy of a well-meaning friend, so I might be okay, but... still, brain bleach. I have to be horny in the right mood I guess? Even though I can appreciate smut, one thing in particular DID upset my "inner Joel" some, because he's a far more sensitive creature than the one portrayed. And my friend said, only half-joking, "actually I think Joel would be more like that in real life" -- borderline abusive, really -- which did kinda put me off my writing until I dismissed it as just her opinion. Well, I'm done writing now and who knows when I'll write next... but I will still refrain! I don't have an inner Ellie, btw, only an inner Joel. Even though I adore writing Ellie too.

...jeez, babble much, Wendy?!

[dancingdragon3.livejournal.com]

Um, don't know how I missed this comment, sorry :-/

Poor little aanime_fan can use all the spamming you can give it. Please, feel free to direct your ramblings over there...I like reading them :-)

Jeez, do I totally get 'inner' characters and them being sensitive to other people's opinions. :HUGS: I have given up feeling embarrassed when I feel the need to wrap my muse in bunches of cotton.

But Joel as borderline abusive? That isn't at all what I got from your summary. And you'd have needed to embellish and leave out a heck of a lot to get from that to any kind of abusive, at least in regards to Ellie certainly.

I find it interesting and very surprising that you don't have an inner Ellie.

And again, I love reading about your writing process. I'll make an effort to let myself drone on as I want, if it makes you feel better :-)

[luminations.livejournal.com]

Well how awesome that you answered it anyway! It's not like they "expire" or anything (I always say that about fic as well :D)

Aww you like my ramblings? Perhaps because I don't ramble too often in here, lol. But I do like reading about your writing dilemmas and such so yes ramble away and make me feel better!

Yeah, he's bad-ass, but he'd never hurt someone he loved... and I reeeally don't see him using Ellie as his little sex slave, even if she's willing. No wonder people hate the pairing, if that's how they see it. But then, I'm sure some of those people would read Accretion and lump me in that category, even though I didn't even come CLOSE to that.

As for the inner Ellie... idk, there might be one hiding in there? My next story is entirely Ellie POV so there's gotta be somethin'... LOL. I love writing her POV, I guess I just don't feel like she follows me around the way Joel does. It's weird. Esp. when I do draw on a lot of my own shit to write her!

[wicked-jester.livejournal.com]

...I had to go look. I couldn't stop myself.

So much regret. D:

[katleept.livejournal.com]

Oh, that is SO perfect for my story! Thank you!! <3

[dancingdragon3.livejournal.com]

Yay, I'm glad you like it!

I loved the fic :-) I had no idea Lockheed existed, so thanks for turning me onto another dragon character.
