Quick Thanks; Mystery Fic

[rj_anderson]

sannalim, I received your delightful Christmas card/picture and message today -- thanks for the lovely thought and the kind words!

I am going to try to write something today. We'll see how far I get. I'm afraid to even mention what I'm writing lest I jinx the whole process, but I had something of an epiphany about a certain fictional character last night just as I was drifting off to sleep, and it was far too cool for me to just ignore it...

(Hint: The proposed title of the fic is "Galatea". See if you can guess the fandom and the characters just from that.)

Okay, now this is going to drive me crazy. I have a ton of associations with Galatea, from the source myth down through Phantastes and My Fair Lady.

Are you going to write House fic? Is this about Cameron? (not that I watch that show as much as I would like to.)

Though admittedly my first fly-by-night thought involved Shannon from LOST....

Got it in one! Very impressive. Just you wait, 'Enry 'Iggins.

Woot! Actually, I thought I got that purely by thinking about which of your fandoms includ a woman who places a lot of emphasis on one particular man...but I must have had House (the actual character) on the brain, because yes, it's the dynamic of the relationship that made me suggest this.

And as much as he might resent the comparison, he kind of *is* Henry Higgins. *snerk*

Looking forward to the fic. :-)

I so called it. Way before I clicked on the comments.

Just so you know.

*anticipates your Housefic*

Cameron was my thought as well; glad to hear that it's so. I'm looking forward to this!
