bedlamsbardToday I did things that seemed very productive, and yet were not. Well, I washed my car. That was productive. Then I put on shorts and a bikini top and sat outside for an hour or so reading in order to get tan for graduation. I'm wearing a dress for graduation, and my legs are...so pale they could double as landing lights. This is not good. Thus the tanning. The thing is that I never do the whole girly tanning thing, and this is the first time I have ever done so. (I'm eighteen, by the way, so...make of that what you will.) I also read a significant portion of S.M. Stirling's Dies the Fire, one of my favorite post-apocalyptic novels.
I have not watched Narnia. I am kind of tempted to write fic, though, but I keep stopping and debating the merits of writing from movie canon when it's a book-based canon. But, but...I'm inspired by the movie. I'm pretty sure the justification isn't in the book!
Oh my God, we never have this problem in media fandom. In HP people are mocked for writing from movie canon! Just because it's Narnia doesn't make it any more acceptable!
Guys. I am really very bothered by this. Would anyone like to weigh in?
(I have this hilarious meta post brewing on how the movie Prince Caspian did exactly what I expect fanfic to do, and how screwed up I am over the fact that it did so legitimately and now I cannot figure out whether it's legitimate or not or should even...seriously, this is what happens when you spend too long in HP fandom.)
Also, at this point I clearly need a Narnia icon.
