Russell and Steve, True Blood Love

 

From the time that Russell Edgington made his appearance in one of the best scenes ever on True Blood, I have adored him as the best eveeel vamp in this side of the Mississippi.

No moody vamp here longing for his human days. This is the true face of vampire. 

And then we have …

Steve Newlin an eveeel character as head of the Fellowship of the Sun, but then made vamp to replace Nan Flannagan.  With his Shoney’s Big Boy hairdoo and cheesy smile, I fell in loooove!

But what could be better, you ask?

Have them fall in love, of course!

I may have had my disappointments with the show veering away from the book.  But whoever came up with the idea of putting these two together is a genius.  I could actually forgive Allan Ball all those disappointments if he came up with this pairing.

They are the romantic and vampiric version of these beloved characters Pinky and the Brain and probably would do really well with their own spin off.

True Blood Celebrations

The buzz around the fandom has been infectious.  Season 5 of True Blood looks to be pack full of action, twists and plenty of surprises.  I think I am truly excited about this season, because it will be far far removed from the books and can finally quit the comparisons.

True Blood on Twitter Holiday Writing Contest

The True Blood on Twitter is holding their second writing contest.  See your entry acted out live on Twitter! (Performance disclaimer: Characters other than the three mentioned in our setup can be used but are subject to availability for actual Twitter performance). Two of the three winners from the last contest were from our Fangreaders group. Let’s hope to see more from our fandom join in this exciting contest.  More info , please check out The Blood Bites Blog

Set the scene…

The holidays are approaching and provide the perfect setting for your story to take place.  Here is some background to help get you started:

King Bill has decided to hold a charity holiday party to foster goodwill between Humans and Vampires.  In keeping with Bill and Eric working as a team, the King has asked Eric to co-host the party with him and  has also pulled Sookie in to be the hostess to provide the Human touch, thereby continuing the “triangle” that was present all through Season 4

Our premise will be Eric’s recent memory loss has stirred up his real life memories coupled with Sookie’s rejection causing him to want to go “home” in solitude for the holidays.  Sookie is going to come up with incorporating the Norse theme of Jul (Yule) into the party in order to keep Eric there to help them.

For information about the Norse Jul celebration: http://www.wizardrealm.com/norse/holidays.html

Create your True Blood holiday story using the background setup we have provided and the theme of Jul. It can take place just before the party starts, during the event or immediately after. This is a celebration of new beginnings and endings, what might that mean in the world of True Blood? Could something happen that increases tension between Sookie, Bill and Eric? Does something or someone go wrong at the party? Is our Vampire/Faerie triangle mysteriously transported to days of old and a real Viking Jul celebration? Does everyone live happily ever after? Wait, this is Bon Temps we are talking about, that would never happen. Only you know what you want to unfold and this is your chance to tell us all.

(Performance disclaimer: Characters other than the three mentioned in our setup can be used but are subject to availability for actual Twitter performance).

Our panel of judges will choose first, second and third place winners from the submissions and True Blood on Twitter group members will act out the winning story, live on Twitter, as a special holiday event.

First place prize is a signed Alexander Skarsgard print by Kristin Bauer van Straten.  Runner up prizes will also be awarded for second and third place winners.

As some of you might have seen, I’m in the process of updating my blogs and adding new ones.

Of course Fairyblood’s Fantasies will always be THE most special to me since it was my very first blog.  It will always be the place to go to get the skinny on SVM/TB fanfic that I feel deserves some attention.  However, as a lover of paranormal romance~ I am going to be adding my favourite paranormal romance reads as well.  Eric Northman will continue to be my favourite character, but I do have to give the poor vampire a break sometimes.  He may be immortal, but my Fantasies are voracious. 

New Blogs:

April’s Imagination ~  An personal blog that is still in development.  Look out for promotions of indie authors (especially our fanfic authors that are publishing their own works) and artists that I feel need recognition.  Currently working with local artists to get their work online.

The Magic Classroom  ~ A new blog that will chronicle the journey of home education here in Essex.  Keep posted as I create a local support network and soon a charity to help Home Educators here in the UK. 

Current Blogs:

Fairybloods Pleasure Chamber ~ Your place to go to find those lemony SVM/TB scenes from our favourite fanfic writers.  Coming soon: Be on the look out for “The Corridor” an excerpt from The Viking’s Pet by FanOTheFang

FangReaders ~ Join our Southern Vampire Mysteries/ True Blood fanfic reading group.  Meet in our Chatzy Chat Room for daily chats of favourite fanfics, SVM/TB games, meet fanfic authors and meet fellow Fanfic fans.

Fangreaders Hall of Fame ~ The place to go to find  award winning fanfic authors.  Coming Soon: Be on the look out for our new Award Ceremony recognising excellence in writing.

Fangreaders Library ~ Looking for some fanfic to read? Check out the stories written by some of our Fanfic authors in the Fangreader’s Group.  More being added~ so stay tuned.

The Fairy's Blood ~ One of my newest hobbies has been RPing on Twitter.  Aev is my character.  She is a full blooded Fae descended from royalty but ran away from her family’s kingdom a couple of centuries ago. Making the most of her freedom away from the Fae Courts, she has met the most amazing people and has incredible adventures. Aev has worked for and later became close friends with @SheriffArea_9.  My dearest friend and halfling @Ari_RP has become his bonded. They are a remarkable and passionate couple. Unfortunate circumstances led @Kitten_lvs_Kink away from her home, but I am very glad that it led her to live with me as my dear friend.  She has become mated to @Deathomen who is a cursed guard from my past and still sees fit to try and still protect me.  Unfortunately we are trapped in a dimension of goblins and a very large spider.  Watch as our Story Line will resume soon.

Laughs as I look at the above list~ Julie, I think I really need to go to Blogger’s Anonymous!!

As always I welcome your comments and suggestions~ Let me know if you have any reading recommendations.

This week on Fairyblood’s Fantasies 

Be on the look out for True Blood info and opinions, Contests and Awards Ceremony, the new Charlaine Harris Book and The Fever Series by Karen Marie Moning

True Blood, Fics, and Blogs Oh My!

True Blood

“Dead to the World” being my favourite of all the SVM, I eagerly awaited to see how Mr Ball devours and regurgitates the story that makes me fall in love with Eric Northman over and over again. Yes, I know this season will be nothing like the books, but I hope for those few moments that make watching the Sam storyline bearable.

My Opinions so Far:

The Fairies~ Why Mr Ball? Of all the paths of ideas you could have taken…Why Why Why?!!!

~*~*~*~*~*~

Marnie~ What a delicious character…Aunt Petunia Rocks!

~*~*~*~*~*~

Jason~ He gets some great lines even though his storyline is incredibly boring

~*~*~*~*~*~

Alcide~ As long as he keeps his mouth shut, he provides a bit of Daytime Eye-Candy

 

No seriously,keep your mouth shut!

~*~*~*~*~*~

Debbie Pelt ~ Uhh…well um *scratches my head* Just why?

Why weren’t you put out of our misery right here!

~*~*~*~*~*~

Pam~ *Bows to her magnificence* Even rotting, she is fabulous

~*~*~*~*~*~

Tara~ Janofarc said it best..”even being a lesbian doesn’t make her interesting” Oh how true (No, I meant not to post a pic…really just not worth the effort)

~*~*~*~*~*~

Sookie~ My feelings for TB Sookie goes up and down like a yo-yo.  Honestly, I don’t feel the writers really got a grip on her character and keep here tucked into some hick stereo-type.  Then there are some moments where we see the strength from her experience shine through. But I really cheered when Sam/Tommy said what some of us have been thinking about TB Sookie…

~*~*~*~*~*~

Eric~ What can I say? *Bows down to his feet* Askars has dived into the psyche of a 1000 yr vampire stripped of all his memories and leaves the honourable vampire kneeling to accept his fate.

Of course the Best moment so far….

More of my opinions next week..

Fan ~Fic Recommendations

Courtesan of the Dead by Southernlady23

*Sniffle* The story has ended with this final chapter to the remarkable story of Sookie and Eric where Sookie finds herself taking the identity of a girl who is going to work in a brothel in order to run away from Eric. There she catches the eye of his majesty, King Felipe. You will find yourself falling for Felipe and learn what Barry does with his telepathic abilities.

True Blood Episode 6 Review: I Wish I Was The Moon

Posted on August 4, 2011 by tbrantsandraves

This is going to be a little different from my usual reviews because this was not just any usual episode. This was an episode that many fans have been waiting to see for years: the episode in which Eric and Sookie finally have sex.

The road to get here has, at times, been a rocky one. There were some that doubted whether we would we ever get here or, if we did, whether we would even be happy with what we saw. Well, you can count me among the happy campers. I loved this episode.

When looking at it, I can’t help but think of a frequent Team Eric refrain that was uttered over the last three-and-a-half seasons. It was often trotted out to get us to hang in there (or prevent us from jumping off a ledge) and it was this: different route, same destination.

I can’t recall if I was this bad last year.  The anticipation was driving me crazy, but no, I think this year is worse.  We know Eric is going to get amnesia; we know he’s going to get with Sookie and not in a dream; and we know there is going to be a lot of MMMM nakedness. So yeah~ is it Sunday yet?

Our panel of judges will choose first, second and third place winners from the submissions and True Blood on Twitter group members will act the winning story out, live on Twitter, as a special event leading up to Sunday, June 26 and the first episode of Season 4 of True Blood™. Second and third place entries will be performed at a later date. First place prize is a copy of True Blood: The Complete Third Season on DVD. Runner up prizes will also be awarded for the second and third place winners.

Deadline for submissions is Midnight central time, Wednesday, June 22^nd, 2011.
