LOST LOVE MEME!

[haldoor]

Hi everyone... I was feeling a little down and I thought that maybe a good way to get my spirits back up, and also as a bit of a Luau preparation, you'd all like to help me celebrate our friendships. This is pretty much for all the Losties on my flist, but even if you're not and you feel like joining in, I'll be happy to have you here.





The idea is to start a thread with someone's name in the comment field, and for everyone to pop in and tell everybody what they love about that person. Please add as many or as few names as you wish. Pimp it out to encourage everyone to join in! It will give us all warm fuzzies and remind us why this is such a great fandom to belong to.

No flaming or anonymous criticisms will be tolerated: they will be deleted immediately, not that I'm expecting any!

♥ ♥ ♥

Because she's an absolutely lovely person!

bachlava

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

Because she started us off! ♥

bachlava is a passionate, caring and always interesting person. She puts such depth into her fics and makes us believe them to be true! ;-)

[zelda-zee.livejournal.com]

She's SOOO smart! And such a good writer! And a wonderful friend to boot! Her love of animals makes me happy and her sense of humor makes me laugh.

eponine119

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

eponine119 is always friendly, encouraging, and knows how to spread the love! Her fics are ones that I envy - she knows how to convey meaning and feeling in a concise way, something I'm not so good at! ♥

I feel lucky to that Megan was one of my first LJ friends. I guess we're in it for the long haul, cuz we're still here. :)

I love her stories, but what means the most is just having her for a friend.

zelda_zee

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

zelda_zee has been a tower of strength in fandom; always making us think and challenge ourselves. She's done so much to keep it alive. Her fics are always beautifully done and the sex... oh, to die for! Plus you have to love her love of Sayid! ♥

Re: zelda_zee

[hitlikehammers.livejournal.com]

I credit zelda_zee with convincing me that Lost fandom was worth trying on for size when I started posting here on LJ -- her candor, skill, openness, and enthusiasm for the fandom (even in light of finding the show less than satisfying) are both phenomenal and admirable. Eve better, she's a lovely person on top of all that.

toestastegood

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

toestastegood is one of the people who never stops making it fun. She works behind the scenes to make so many wonderful things happen in fandom, and to top that, she writes wonderful character-driven stories about her favourites! She's warm and loving, and I admire her ability to work hard to get past her RL issues! ♥

Re: toestastegood

[zelda-zee.livejournal.com]

I love how Shona is willing to step up and make fun things happen in fandom. She's definitely one of the people who make fandom happen.

And I love her love of rare pairings, cuz I love 'em too!

siluria

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

siluria is one of favourite people.. she makes any day nicer with her warmth and encouragement. Her fics are incredibly atmospheric and delicious! ♥

Re: siluria

[zelda-zee.livejournal.com]

Rosie is always great to have around - in fandom, but she's the same in RL. I'm so lucky to have gotten to meet her! She's a sweetie!

gemjam

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

gemjam writes incredibly sexy, hot and always yummy slash fics! She always makes me want to cheer: Gem! Gem! Gem! And she is so friendly and warm that any time we have contact, I feel better instantly! ♥

and now I will let others get in first with some people from my flist or I will be here all day

Re: gemjam

[zelda-zee.livejournal.com]

I miss Gem! Still think her fic is some of the hottest I've ever read. I miss her presence in the fandom.

jenthegypsy

[zelda-zee.livejournal.com]

She's such a good friend and a kind-hearted, no bullshit sort of person. I like to think we'll always be friends.

Re: jenthegypsy

[hitlikehammers.livejournal.com]

I don't know her nearly as well as I'd like to, but she's always been a joy when we have crossed interweb-paths. And she digs Booth/Brennan, which is fantastic ;)

gigglemonster!

gigglemonster
It's no secret that gigglemonster is like one of my favorite people ever. Her graphics are insane, her writing is beautiful, her vids are a dream come true, and I just don't know if I deserve a friend as good as her.

Re: gigglemonster!

[toestastegood.livejournal.com]

I just met her relatively recently, and already I think she is awesomesauce. Her Lost graphics are gorgeous, and I love that she ships Charlie/Olivia. Knowing her makes me want to catch up with Fringe! She seems like a lovely person, and I'm looking forward to getting to know her even better.

elliotsmelliot

[zelda-zee.livejournal.com]

Her fic is always insightful and intelligent, as is she. But she's also one of the funniest people around. I appreciate her critical approach - she always makes me think.

Meeting her at the Vegas GFG was a total treat!

Re: elliotsmelliot

[hitlikehammers.livejournal.com]

She is an absolute gem -- her wit, humor, skill, intellect, and critical eye make her an absolute pleasure to interact with in the fannish arena, as well as regarding other things.

jaydblu

[zelda-zee.livejournal.com]

Because she's never mean! :) And she leaves lovely comments and is so encouraging. She's a great friend.

Re: jaydblu

[bachlava.livejournal.com]

Her energy and her enthusiasm are positively contagious, in all the best ways possible. She is a bestower of many smiles.

Crickets!

[gigglemonster.livejournal.com]

So crickets is a genius. She's smart and hilarious and always, always willing to help people. She speaks her mind in an eloquent and thoughtful way. Her fic is out. of. this. world. Seriously. I don't know what I or this fandom would do without her!
♥ ♥ ♥

Re: Crickets!

[hitlikehammers.livejournal.com]

Witty, skilled, friendly, and creative beyond all reason -- she's an absolute doll.

gottalovev

[zelda-zee.livejournal.com]

A ray of light in any fandom, Lou is just special. She's kind and thoughtful and one of the most level-headed people I know. I feel lucky to know her.

Re: gottalovev

[hitlikehammers.livejournal.com]

Lou is truly a just an all-around fantastic person. She's skilled, creative, multi-talented, kind, encouraging, and wonderful on so many levels; it's an absolute joy to know her.

[mollivanders.livejournal.com]

ozmissage

Because she's creative and clever and neverrrrr watches TV. She helps me co-mod at lost_in_108 and created dharmadays for all those good times we never saw. Also her five things lists and LOST fics make me a very happy fangirl :)

[hitlikehammers.livejournal.com]

Incredibly skilled and always seems friendly; plus I owe her (and mollivanders) major gratitude for the wonder that is lost_in_108, which saved my Lost muse before it spiraled into oblivion :)

[mollivanders.livejournal.com]

angeldylan628

Um, word. Because she writes amazing fic, and has great analysis for all the shows she watches. Because she doesn't apologize for liking something more than others do and because her icons make me squee. She's an incredibly giving and fun person to be around :)

[ozmissage.livejournal.com]

We've only recently become friends, but I already know she's an incredible person. Her fics and graphics are beautiful and she wrote my cracktastic Flashforward OTP for me. And it was amazing.

[mollivanders.livejournal.com]

aboutbunnies

Did you know she can cook? And shares the recipes? My diet's improved because of her ;) She writes beautiful Kate and Sawyer fic, makes me miss Clementine and Aaron, and I look forward to nabbing her new icons. Incisive and supportive, she is.

[bachlava.livejournal.com]

She can write brilliant sad fic without its ever being gratuitously angsty or purely depressing. She can also make me like Kate and care what happens to her and Sawyer - no mean feat!

[mollivanders.livejournal.com]

colourmayfade

I gape at her picspams. Fact. She makes fanmixes to steal for. She rambles, in a good way, about LOST and how crazy it is and how crazy it makes us :) Ships can't keep this fandom apart, like here. So awesome.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

I don't know you that well yet. But, new friends! Yay! So far as I can tell you're sweet and open and holygodyoumakeamazinggraphics! Not even remotely kidding here. The Shephards would not have even been remotely the same without your gorgeous gorgeous fingerprints. So thank you for that and for putting up with all of my random e-mails haha. I'm glad to know you.

[mollivanders.livejournal.com]

valhalla37

She brought me into the Dan/Charlotte ship, that's how awesome her powers are. Also, she once wrote me a fic where Dan and Charlotte dressed up for Halloween and Dan was a black hole; Charlotte was Indiana Jones.

I look forward to every post from her :) Not only does she write great fic, she's a great/smart/self-aware friend.

[hitlikehammers.livejournal.com]

This girl is seriously one of my favorites, both as an author and as a person -- she's just so open and intelligent and friendly and giving, and when she asks me to write her Dan/Charlotte, it feels like it's my birthday (though not so much as it does when she leaves her amazing feedback of amazingness, because... well, she's like the Queen of Dan/Charlotte). And then when she writes fic... it's always just so vivid and beautiful, and her style is fantastic. All around, she's an absolute joy to know.

[mollivanders.livejournal.com]

missy_useless

We can flail about Jack/Juliet/David family stories together, we can flail about Eowyn/Aragorn together, and flail about great music together. Aside from having excellent taste in all the above ;) she also writes beautiful fics which make me all ~torn inside.

[hitlikehammers.livejournal.com]

To say I'm lucky to have gotten to know her through fandom feels like an understatement. She's just so giving and kind and talented and wonderful; her writing is beautiful and her style is so unique and visceral and gorgeous, and she's an absolute doll about everything and anything, and she has the most excellent taste in fandoms/pairings ;) She's a gem, through and through.

[gottalovev.livejournal.com]

janie_tangerine

you've just got to love someone with that level of passion and enthusiasm. I have the joy to share a couple of fandom with her and it's all around awesome. she's a fantastic friend ♥

[hitlikehammers.livejournal.com]

So utterly enthusiastic and skilled; an absolute asset to the fandom, for sure!

slybrunette

[crickets.livejournal.com]

slybrunette:
I fear lost fandom may be seeing the last of her eventually or very soon. Still her past and current contributions have been inspiring to me. Not to mention what a wonderful friend she's been. She was a bit of a partner in crime and made me feel like I had a home here with my weird fics and my opposing viewpoints. [Some of which we never shared anyway, haha.] That was, is, and will always be very special to me. And even though I know we'll always be friends, I will miss being in this fandom with her. It was a time. Her writings are jaw-dropping, awe-inspiring works of art. She doesn't know how good she really is. Brilliant.

Re: slybrunette

[workswithwords.livejournal.com]

It's no lie that whatever slybrunette says is good, I usually agree. Often I think we might have the same brain, and we've been known to be thinking the EXACT same thing in the EXACT same moment. She's incredibly talented, and one of the most prolific writers I've ever met, and not one of her pieces has ever suffered from it, its quite the opposite! She's also an amazing friend, and one I cherish with all my heart!

hesperia

hesperia:
She of the thousand rotating usernames, haha. You may know her, and not even know it. And though she mostly lurks these days, she's always offering up to write amazing and beautiful comment fic and she is a whiz at it. I do not possess that capability, sadly. I wish she could bottle it and give it away.

And not to mention, she's one of my dearest friends around these parts. Love this girl to death. Love.

Re: hesperia

[workswithwords.livejournal.com]

HAHA that description of my username is SO correct. Thank you sweetie, that is so nice and very humbling! If I could bottle it I would, and I would give it away to anyone who wanted it! ♥ you always!

holycitygirl

[crickets.livejournal.com]

holycitygirl:
What can you say about this girl? Well, she's got one of the best accents ever. And she's amazing for a lot of reasons not the least of which is humoring me time and time again and putting up with me on top of it. Her writing is so good I think she kills a little of my soul every time I read something she's written. [In the good way! Of course!] Poetic and legendary. That's her.

Re: holycitygirl

[eponine119.livejournal.com]

She is amazing. I love her writing, and her spirit and her take on things.

joyyjpg

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

I haven't known her long, really, but joyyjpg always seems to be encouraging and friendly; has a lot of things on the go in her life and takes time to bring us great Lost fic too! ;-)

Re: joyyjpg

[hitlikehammers.livejournal.com]

Joy is absolutely wonderful -- she's kind and funny and enthusiastic and friendly and witty, not to mention ten kinds of talented, and basically she's just an utterly fantastic ball of awesome :D

alliecat8

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

alliecat8 is one of the sweetest ladies in this fandom and she's always full of joy! She writes delicious Jack/Sawyer and sweeps us all up in her wonderful enthusiasm! ♥

Re: alliecat8

[birch-tree.livejournal.com]

a Lost meme without Alliecat8 would be so incomplete!
Allie and her enthusiasm and love for Sawyer, Jack, and Sawyer/Jack! You know, she's one of the very few fic writers that made me read slash -and enjoy it! ;))))
