New Fanfiction: Leah Oneshot

Hey guys!

I just finished my latest fanfic, A Year In Minutes. It's a short-ish oneshot, but definitely longer than a drabble, and basically shows Leah's life starting at an unknown point after Breaking Dawn up to Sam and Emily's wedding. Translated, that means about a year and a half summarized in 1,500 words.
Leah now lives in Seattle. It follows her as she makes friends, loses them, worries about money, gets a job, gets a boyfriend, breaks up, writes a book. Main theme is her being over Sam and Emily, which is stated at the beginning and evidenced at the end.
Enjoy.

NCIS Fanfiction Recommendations

Hey guys! I realize I'm doing this kind of late, but in light of NCIS' 200th episode, I thought I'd post some of my favorite NCIS fanfictions. Be warned that I am a Tiva person.

This Is Me, Losing All Interest In Buffy

You all know the story of how I watched my FIRST Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode awhile ago. And I was intrigued. Also, confused. (What freaking Harvest, damn it?!)

Side note: for those of you who missed it, go here: http://silverdreams-alternativeego.blogspot.com/2011/11/my-first-buffy-vampire-slayer-episode.html

So I did something horrible. Something that you should never, ever do.
I went on Wikipedia and looked the show up. And of course, damn that trusty Wikipedia, I found a pretty good article on it. Which I proceeded to read.
That was, now that I think about it, my mistake. Because then, from that moment on, I knew very well who Angel was and how he and Buffy wouldn't really be together for long (sob) and how Buffy dies at the end of the season but comes back to life somehow.
And promptly I lost all interest in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, because there was no more suspense. No suspense = not interesting. That little equation makes sense, actually, and can be applied to a lot of different things.
Which I will not list here.
Because I still kind of liked Buffy and Angel but obviously needed something new where I didn't know what was going to happen anyway, I turned to fanfiction.net and read a few fanfics.
As it turns out, people who have only watched one episode and got the rest from Wikipedia don't really understand fanfiction because you have to understand the characters somewhat, which I obviously didn't.
Damn.

So here's the pact: I won't look up TV shows, books or movies on Wikipedia anymore unless I've already watched or read them. There.
That ought to fix it.

Ships I Sail

The Vampire Diaries: (the TV show. I don't like the books because in the triology, it gets ... weird)

Bonnie / Damon (Bamon)
Stefan / Elena (Stelena), although not so much . It's a byproduct of my Bamon love

I Am Number Four: (the movie. I never read the books)

Six / OC (stands for other character. You know, fanfiction and stuff)

NCIS:

Tony / Ziva (Tiva. They're so awesome together!)

Twilight: (books or movie doesn't really matter)

Leah / OC (doesn't have to be imprint)
Paul / OC (has to be imprint)
Emmett / Rosalie (don't you just love Rose? I do)
I don't really go for anything with Edward or Bella, because they're both just not that awesome

Star Trek: 2009:

Spock / Uhura


Side note: I generally don't read slash, because it's weird for me when the characters have been established as straight and suddenly, whadaya know, they're gay or lesbian.
Second side note: I like stories where both members of the relationship have strong personalities. I don't exactly mind badass traits.
