four Friday fings

[tielan]

I knew a girl at uni who pronounced 'things' as 'fings'. She simply couldn't get that 'th' sound happening.

But irrelevant.

• I see that my fannish 2015 will be much the same as my fannish 2012: converting the MCU fandom to Maria/Steve, one fic at a time.
  
  (For reference: I got a comment last night on The Odd Couple which was "this is not a pairing I would have ever imagined..." And there was much rejoicing.)


• The character list for Cap 3: Civil War has come out and Maria Hill is not in it. I don't have to tell you how disappointed this makes me.
  
  On the other hand, it means I am committed to writing "MCU: Civil War - the one where Maria plays a major part in it, the way she bloody well should" for marvel_bang.


• In order to write this MCU: Civil War fic, I am going to have to catch up on Agents of SHIELD, and possibly Daredevil, because I like that #itsAllConnected and it's nice to be able to hook everyone in - even if it's only a mention.
  
  Is there anyone available from around 9am-3pm Saturday to chat with me during a rewatch? I can do AIM or IRC, although I think I prefer IRC.


• TGIF!!

We don't have the 'th' sound in Italian either and it's harder than you'd think to remember to put your tongue between your teeth to obtain that particular sound. Sure that girl wasn't just a girl with a bad case of Italian accent? :D

Also, yay for Maria in the Civil War fic, it makes me so happy! *_*

She was from western Sydney; I suspect it was more of a linguistic laziness from a dialect perspective. :)
