Kalli, Kit, Mina, thank you. Really, I have a lot of what was listed, but the brain crapped out because I didn't think of any of it. ^^ @Kalli, I'm really going to push for Nightwalker. (Heck, I might just bring it with me and put it in her hands.) @Kit, Steph's already got YnM/DoD listed for that night, so I guess that qualifies as old enough. @Mina, subtext perfectly okay. Actually, it has to be, or we wouldn't have enough programming for three days. And BnSH is always played. It's like the Ycon video anthem. hrr.

Again, thanks for the suggestions (keep 'em coming if you got anymore). I'll let Steph know about them tomorrow.

Pepsi is my anti-wank.

[link] - (exanimate)

First, to Mina, There's a question for you from Kit over here.

Second, Steph at the vidroom asked me for some suggestions for the "Pretty Boys Oldies" theme night. Basically older series like Earthian and WK. Outside of GB, which might not be old enough, I couldn't think of anything myself, but promised to ask the flist. So any anime you think would fit the theme?

Sorry for the silence. Been some drama/wank/stupidity here that I didn't want to really bother with posting about. Just trudging through school and still writing PW fic, though I don't know if I'm going to even post it anywhere. Hm.

Tagged by Mina: Sometimes it's okay to pimp yourself out. Post a list of your top five fics favorite you've written, regardless of fandom or the reason you love them. This isn't about the BEST things you've written, but what you LOVE most. Then tag five other people to do the same.

I'm not listing these in any particular order, just know they're somewhere in the top five.

Finding Forgiveness (PW: Nick/Klav) - I don't know why I like it, I just do. Okay, maybe because I always seem to go for those hardly considered, let alone written for pairings, so when I see something, even if it's my own doing, well beggars can't be choosers. That and I think these two are the best to run through the emotional wringer. Oh yeah, this, not finished. I'm still writing on it.

Sophisticated Fools (PW: Phoenix/Miles) - I like this for a few reasons, but mostly because 1. It's a PW fic, my first even. 2. I was afraid I'd forgotten how to write fanficton, so this gave me a bit of faith back in myself. 3. I finished it. Seriously, I consider that a major accomplishment. Plus, I managed to have Miles drawing stick figure porn. That deserves a nod if nothing else.

Suimin no Gen'ei (Illusion of Sleep) (Slayers: Gourry/Zel) - Okay, I really don't know why, but I had to put this one. Both heart-wrenching and heart-warming, plus it has NotDumb!Gourry.

Dance of the Full Moon (Slayers: Gourry/GirlChanging!Zel- This has been incomplete since the dawn of time, and sadly I lost my muse when revulo stopped poking fun at it. But it was fun, it was crack, it was Zel as a woman... what's not to love about that? Plus the ice cream scene, can't not mention the ice cream scene.

Lumina's Dreamer & Sadiki's Harmony (FFX: Braska/<=Rin=>/Tidus) - They're tied, but it's confusing because they're also somewhat connected. And while I've for the most part been a very strange Rin/Tidus fan for FFX, the Braska/Rin pairing came out of left field and smacked me upside the head. I learned not to question when that happens, just write and hope it comes out in the wash.

(10:03 pm PT) - Please, take the hint
[link] - (evil)

Dear family,
If you want to wank, that's fine. But when I say I'm going into a chat right now, that's should not be interpreted as 'now would be a good time to vent to you (me)'. It should be translated as 'I'd like some time to spend on my own life, such as it is, so please save the wank for tomorrow'.

Seriously, I kept saying, "I'll be in my room." "I'm going on a chat now." "I'd like to talk to this person now." Yet parties are going over the same stuff that I have no new input for and already agreed with. Okay, yes, I know you want to vent. But I've only said that I consider all hours after 8pm (and especially after 9pm) my time for the past few years now. Alas I'm obviously ignored, I missed the person I wanted to talk to tonight.

It doesn't help that this is spillover from wank that started back on the 18th.

I'm now going to sit here and try and write this PW fic before I just go batshit on someone in here and start some wank of my own.

Happy Birthday to the ever talented Ronda, who continues to inspire great awe with what her hands can accomplish (and that doesn't sound dirty at all, brain. ¬_¬). Unfortunately, I'm made of fail gravy as I really wanted to get those things from last year (that would have been finished if school didn't hate me so much) to you, but, well, fail gravy is the fail. Until I can send something properly, I offer any web services, know-how, or other lacklustre talents to you.

Hope you have a good one today!

(6:58 pm PT) - Manga Faeries visited me
[link] - (geeky)

Mizuki Hakase makes me cry like the little girl I never felt like being.

Though it's ironic that it happens amidst some of the bloodiest scenes in the book. Hmm.

Miry! Vassalord also came in the grouping. Will be a-reading tomorrow. Soon as I can put down Professor Layton for more than 2 minutes.

Now to write some more to this second PW fic. Why oh why do I always like the rare, unwritten for pairings in a series? Darn you, Capcom, I didn't need a German rockstar with my lawyers! Sheesh.

(7:06 pm PT) - Ye merry stuff, I hast it.
[link] - (thoughtful)

Let's see, won't bore with the details of today as it's not so jolly, so I'll just list the stuff.

From my lovely Mirchan:
3 doujinshi: LoZ with Link/Dark Link overtones, LotR with some beautiful shading in the second half, and last but not least, PotC with wet Jack, wet Will, and a happy me at the end. Miry, keeping the card, but got jacked for my penguin pen. ^^ But I loved it all, thanks, luv!

Mom got me the ever popular bday panties, which are second only to Xmas panties. (Running family joke, just know we're weird and call it a day.)

Myself (because yes, I buy myself stuff): Professor Layton & the Curious Village, and Apollo Justice, even if I hate what they did to Phoenix. Oh yes, and comics. (Marvel, please, did you really have to do Miss Sinister? Graaaah.)

T'was ironic, or perhaps I'm just 'that' predictable, both mom and Miry got me a PotC card. Not dupes, but much Depp. Not that I'm complaining.

And now I go to figure out where this will fit.

I am a year older.
I wish I could say I'm a year wiser.
Something tells me I'm just a year snarkier.

(12:19 am PT) - Another year Monday
[link] - (indescribable)

Miry, thank you, luv! I'll keep my eye out for it.

Kit, thank you for the thought, but really, I feel bad asking for anything this year as I still haven't finished things I wanted to send last year. (Which I'm still intending to finish and send.) What about this: if there's something you're into that you think I would like, send a sample or direct me to a link. Can never have too many interests, I say.

I have noted a trend in the last decade where I can't get through the month of August, especially a week prior to my Bday, without someone getting into an argument in my family. I won't get into details, but I told mom if this keeps up, I'm not celebrating. "What if someone gives you a gift?" "I'll take it, there's a big difference between celebrating and accepting a gift."

Whaaat? There is one, honestly.

(6:10 pm PT) - Are we in college or effin grade school?
[link] - (irate)

So, group project week. I posted Sunday night that 1. I have random hours, so me making chat meetings is unlikely. 2. I can and will post all communication via the discussion board. 3. I posted my email as I'm not about to give strangers my home phone number like others posted.

So nothing else but some other schmuck's intro post was made Monday. I checked again this morning, still nothing. Suddenly I get an email from the instructor telling me to check my school email every day to make sure the team could communicate with me. Why? Apparently something got posted, and a group email was sent, to which if it's sent to my email one gets an auto-message saying to be certain I receive said message in a timely manner, send it to my primary (non-school) address. Well group leader didn't like it and basically snitched to the instructor, saying it would be hard to communicate with me if he had to use an external email address.

WHAT THE FUCK!

First off, it's Tuesday. Nobody else had even posted, least not by this morning. Second I said I had random hours, so assume I'll check in randomly. Third, I stated how I would communicate with the group. And last, when the hell did we go back to telling the instructor about this without even checking to see if there was a problem to begin with or contacting the other party like a reasonable adult.

[ends italic abuse]

I swear I had a flashback to elementary school because of this. Goddess, can I get a little less bullshit and more actual learning, please?
