FOR NON-AMERICANS, LET ME PREFACE THIS BY SAYING THAT THE SCI-FI CHANNEL, WHO IN A CORPORATE ATTEMPT TO DISTANCE THEMSELVES FROM THEIR PRIMARY AUDIENCE --SCI-FI FANS-- HAS CHANGED THE SPELLING OF THEIR NAME TO "SYFY," HAS NEVER BEEN KNOWN FOR THEIR QUALITY MADE-FOR-TV MOVIES. (I AM AWARE THAT THOSE MOVIES HAVE SOME FANS. NO OFFENSE TO ANY FANS OUT THERE, BUT I HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO SIT THROUGH EVEN ONE OF THEM. AND I'M PRETTY EASY TO PLEASE, AS A VIEWER.) (I TAKE THAT BACK-- I SAT THROUGH THE FIFTH HIGHLANDER MOVIE. BUT ONLY WHILST ROOTING FOR METHOS TO UP AND KICK EVERYBODY'S ARSE. I SUPPOSE IT WAS NOT TIME WASTED, SINCE IT EVEN HAD METHOS, BUUUUT... AND THAT WAS NOT INITIALLY A SKIFFY VEHICLE.)
ANYWAY.
APPARENTLY, NEXT WEEK, THEY WILL BE AIRING BEYOND SHERWOOD, WHICH, LONG STORY SHORT, APPEARS TO HAVE THE SHERIFF SICCING A DRAGON ON ROBS.
I HOPE EVERYONE, U.S. RESIDENTS AND OTHERS ALIKE, IS ABLE TO SEE THE TEASER HERE, WHICH I EXPECT TO BE CLOSER TO THE LEVEL OF QUALITY IN THE MOVIE THAN THE NOT-BAD-LOOKING TRAILER HERE.
AT ANY RATE, I DON'T EVEN KNOW IF IT'LL BE WATCHABLE, MUCH LESS AVAILABLE THROUGH ANY MEANS TO NON-AMERICANS, BUT IF IT IS BOTH, IT COULD BE FODDER FOR A VERY CAPSLOCKY WATCH AT SOME POINT. GOD KNOWS IT PROBABLY WON'T BE SUITABLE FOR A NON-CAPSLOCKY WATCH.
OH, AND
(SORRY, I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO FIND THE SPARKLE PENIS TEXT. PRETEND THAT'S MADE OF SPARKLY PENISES.) (PENII?)

Name: Lina
Age: 18
Location: South Carolina
How long were you a Harry Potter fan before discovering Shoebox?
Ten years. Oh wow. I feel old.
How did you find Shoebox?
Honestly, I think it was Facebook flair. I was searching either "Remus" or "Sirius" and kept finding little quotes I could not comprehend. Finally Googled it.
Who is your favourite Shoebox character?
How is one supposed to actually choose? I love Remus in all his bookish, terrified glory, but then again, I love Sirius and his complete and somewhat disturbing lack of sanity and common sense, and of course I love James for being helplessly, pathetically in love with Lily. Although, I do have a soft spot for Hector, too...
Which is your favorite Shoebox chapter/scene/moment?
Mistletoe. Pretty much any instance where mistletoe made an appearance.
What is your favourite Shoebox quote?
Oh, good God. Um... "What should be the issue at hand is that your soul seems to smell like burnt puppy."
Are you already having those infamous Shoebox moments?
Probably not, as I am somewhat confused as to what a Shoebox moment is.
What hobbies do you have OUTSIDE of Shoebox?
Can I just say the English language? I'm rather fond of it. Music, too. And driving.
Anything else you'd like to tell us about yourself?
Well, like I've said, I am deeply, deeply ashamed that I have not discovered this sooner. But, ah well, I know the joy of Shoebox now. Lovely to know there's a community of us somewhat obsessive folk.
cheerfulMY FIRST ATTEMPT AT CREATIVITY ON THIS COMM: BOOKS THEY WOULD NEVER WRITE

SOME BOOKS THAT OUR BELOVED RH CHARACTERS WOULD NEVER WRITE ... (OR AT LEAST SHOULD NEVER WRITE IF THEY HAVE ANY COMMON SENSE, WHICH MAY NOT BE THE CASE...)

"She had reached the age of seventeen, without having seen one amiable youth who could call forth her sensibility; without having inspired one real passion, and without having excited even any admiration but what was very moderate and very transient. This was very strange indeed!"
