Day 29 & Day 30 & pimping

Commentfic meme. Funfunfun. Blame it for this entry's shortness, I've been writing for that instead of finishing this meme. Oh well. I also think it's the first time in months I wrote het. Kinda sorta.



Day 29 - What ship had the best proposal?

Ed/Winry from Fullmetal Alchemist.

"I'll give you half my life, so give me half of yours!" Awwwwwwwwwwwwwww!
It helps that I've loved them from the get-go and I'd been praying for them to get together for about half the series. And Ed delivered an awesome proposal and they had epilogue babies and all was well with the world. ♥

Day 30 - Your favorite ship forever and ever and ever?

Merlin/Arthur. Three months isn't much to decide and I don't know if it'll be forever and ever because I don't see the future, but I do love those boys and given the extent to which they dragged me into the fandom I don't think I'm very likely to find another favourite ship any time soon. There isn't any other pairing I've written so much fic about, and soon there won't be any other pairing I've read so much fic about. There's just something about them. Ask me the same question next year and we'll see, but for now... I'm off writing more fic.

On the subject of Bradley James...

I do love this guy.

And yet [Arthur] still has no inkling that Merlin has magic, and has got him out of many tight spots?
The creators seem very happy to milk that one and just continue with Merlin saving the day behind Arthur’s back. Once you lose that kind of dynamic, the show changes. So it will be a very brave moment when someone in the script department says that it’s the right time for a reveal. I’m looking forward to it though, should it happen.

Ah yes, the ‘bromance’ between Arthur and Merlin. How will that progress this series, because one minute Arthur seems to think he’s an idiot, and the next, he’ll respect him?
It’s another kind of relationship that, again, I’ve been very clear about from the start and where it’s going. It’s always going to be important to the success of the show. Colin and myself talked about it very early on. It’s not really talked about in rehearsals or by the director because it really looks after itself.

Some fans have been requesting a musical episode. What do you think about that idea?
We already have our own musical on set. I’ve made up various songs about the crew, so it’s more a case of behind-the-scenes where they’d get to see the musical numbers that happen. Mackenzie Crook Cook Book Song is a personal favourite, and there’s one about Ivan, our focus puller. It hasn’t really got a title yet. It’s just called Ivan. He’s very jolly and it’s a very jolly song. There’s a kind of dance as well.

Emphasis mine. Still waiting for someone to ask him what he thinks of Arthur throwing stuff at Merlin. Also he says a lot of other stuff about football or chainmail. Go read the full thing.
