Wow, LJ really changed... not sure if like

But this is not a post about that! Nay, this is something else entirely.

I do this thing where with OTPs and even just ships in general, I try to imagine them in both romantic and aromantic situations. Like, okay, this ship maybe doesn't "ship", but platonic relationships are just as wonderful (sometimes moreso, because instead of focusing on the ~romance~ its all about mutual respect and affection without the draw of physical pleasure).

My OTP to end all OTPs is Gokudera and Tsuna because they can go either way so easily. You can read into their relationship, or you can just enjoy it as it is. (This is actually true of most ships in KHR. 8059 might not be an OTP of mine, but I can definitely see why people like it and enjoy it as such.) The thing that makes me sad about 5927 is that--however I'm looking at them--I always tend to start leaning towards the angsty/sad/depression side of things (there are many such sides of 5927) and then I get sad. Point being that most of my writing for them is derpy/sexy/kind of OOC because I like to avoid the sad and angst as much as possible since there is so much in my head.

Just throwing this out there.

Not that anyone is still here to read it.

[Fanfic][KHR][27, 59] From the Heart

One day I will reorganize all my tags. Because clearly I need to.

But this day is not that day! Nay, this is the day that I brush off my ficcing skills and, well, fic. Write. Whatever.

The prompts from 31_days are pretty much the only things keeping me writing for fun atm, which is kind of sad. Someone please explain to me why learning a skilled trade takes more time, effort, and energy than learning the complete history of Europe and the Americas? Why. Why??????

Anyways, here there be fic:

Title: From the Heart
Series: KHR
Rating: SO GEN I don't know I forget what the gen ratings are. K+? PG-13? Teen? I don't know, it involves Gokudera, there's swearing up to here, let's say T.
Characters: Tsuna, Gokudera, OFC (briefly), mentions of everyone else
Pairings: Gen, though you could probably take it as extremely mild 5927. Since that's how my writing usually leans.
Warnings: Actually none! I lie, it involves Gokudera, there are always warnings. In this case, the usual foul language.
Notes: 31 Days made me write this. Also, fuck do I miss KHR. Also also, most of this piece revolves around a headcanon that's been making the rounds on tumblr recently. One that I accept so hard. Oh god. Marry me, headcanon creator.
Summary: 7:30 am means breakfast and the first set of documents, reports and files to be reviewed. It also means unexpected gifts.
Updates! Because for whatever reason I am attempting to resurrect my lj. With blogging. Go figure.

1. I am forever destined to suffer food poisoning via un(der)cooked chicken. In my defense, I wasn't the one who cooked the chicken this time. Fortunately for McDonald's, the store manager's immediate offer of new, properly cooked chicken and mcnuggets and some hot fries, coupled with a sworn oath to NEVER LET IT HAPPEN AGAIN means I'm not going to file a complaint. I can handle a bit of food poisoning, horrid as it is. The little kids that were also at that particular store at that time? Probably couldn't.

2. I AM GOING TO EUROPE IN ONE WEEK I am so excited but SO FRIGGIN STRESSED. The flight Kris and I were going to take from Rome to Paris fell through so it's last minute scrambling all over the place. Patrick is a godsend, stg, finding us another flight so quickly, if for nearly $100 more. As long as we get up to Paris in good time, I'll take just about anything.

3. Cosplayed an Ancestor this year for AN, and was so very happy to see Companions everywhere. There was one (two?) other Ancestors, but they were around Friday and Saturday, when my costume was not quite complete and so I didn't get to meet them properly. Got one hell of a hug from a Companion, though, so everything is happy.

4. God do I miss KHR. I'm trying to think of things to do in the meantime, but there are no new books that I want to read, no games I'm interested in playing, no things I want to make. The house is clean, I'm basically packed.... Need moar KHR. Probably going to start re-reading it. Anyone with me?

4.1 I just realized how ineffectual it is to ask a question, as almost everyone on my flist is just... gone. Thankfully I've found most of you on tumblr, but. Ha. Talking to myself.

5. Years and years ago I did thought a Stupid Thing that isn't actually stupid but has been stuck in my head ever since. Basically it's a crossover from hell, born from my love of the Drakengard series and the SG series and I had just started reading the Inheritance Series, so. Think I might have posted about it waaaaay back in one of those plunny posts. Finally decided to try and write some of it? Hahaha, this isn't going to end well.


This is equal parts a plunny and a wishlist of what I wish happened after Drakengard 2. You have been warned.Collapse )
I'm not going to bother doing a proper intro for this atm whoops sorry maybe when I finishing posting everything?


Part One: Tsuna Versus White Haired Pretty Boys

Part Two: Tsuna Versus Travelling

Part Three: Tsuna Versus Baking

Epilogue: So I herd u liek apples....


Predecessor/Antecedent ficcage is probably one of my all-time favorite things, tbh. This is why I obsess about things like Stargate whoops.

Feb. 4th, 2013

My evening:
  • Work until 6
  • Get home at 7:30
  • Eat dinner
  • Clean up
  • TEA
  • Check email
  • Check tumblr
  • Regret checking tumblr
  • Attempt to write
  • HOW DO WORDS
  • Give up
  • Try to find a funny gif re: giving up
  • Realize I have just spent the last half an hour searching the writing tags on tumblr (writing, not writing, nanowrimo) for no apparent reason
  • cry
All in all, productive

I need to stop

No really
At this rate I will never finish anything
EVER



Journeyman

After an accident (read: kidnapping gone horribly wrong), Tsuna is left without the ability to use Flame. In fact, aside from his Hyper Intuition and the Blood, everything otherwise needed to be the Don Vongola has been sealed away, with no apparent method to undo this. Vongola needs a Don, needs the Tresnisette to maintain their superiority, but Tsuna just doesn't cut it anymore in terms of day-to-day dealings--so, aside from extreme scenarios--they generally leave Tsuna to his own devices. The Guardians are always busy doing Guardian-like things, though, and the rest of the Castle staff don't interact with him either because of awe or fear (or anger at such a useless Don), and so Tsuna gets... lonely. Enough so he decides to return to Japan and his mother. It's almost like the way it was before Reborn.

What no one bothered to check was if (instead of just taking things away) the process used actually gave something in return. A couple things, actually, and with Haru's ever so thoughtful gift of a certain costume, Tsuna finds a new path in life. And if that path takes him everywhere and anywhere imaginable, well, that's just an added bonus.



He was a young man with no future, no prospects, and robes that let him fly. There was only one thing to do.Collapse )

I HATE UBISOFT WITH A PASSION

THEY KEEP MAKING ME BUY THINGS WHEN I BARELY HAVE ENOUGH MONIES TO GET THROUGH THE MONTH, LET ALONE PURCHASE PRESENTS FOR FAMILY AND FRIENDS.

On the other hand these things are so shiny and make me so friggin happy YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW MUCH I LAUGHED AT MY LAST ORDER my next door neighbours thought I was drunk at 10 AM THAT IS HOW MUCH I ENJOY GETTING THINGS FROM THEM.

SO.

PRETTY.

*_____*
NaNoWriMo is upon us again, and that means I am once again going to be throwing myself against a brick wall for the fun of it. Oh joy.

I'm in the process of working through some of the 31 Days prompts, and also sort of homestuck maybe??????? Trying to wake up my creativity. Let's see how this goes.

31_Days: May, 2012

I HAVE NOT BEEN A VERY GOOD LJER. (Also not a very good tumblrer, which TAKES UP ALL MY TIME NORMALLY, which says something. Maybe.)

I have FIC to make up for the non!LJing. And other things.

P.S. is anyone else having trouble when trying to post things, re:hitting backspace and instead getting an extra line of text? IT IS KIND OF FRUSTRATING.

****CHALLENGE: 31_DAYS, MAY 2012******

Lets see how I do, shall we?

may 1, 2012: this was once a love poem
may 2, 2012: wringing stars out of zero
may 3, 2012: ankles, elbows, eyes and thigh

Onwards to... failure, probably. Sob.
Um. So I have obviously made good on my promise to be more active here. IT'S TUMBLR, I SWEAR, BLAME IT ON THE TUMBLR. SOB.

Anyways, shameless advertising! WHEE.

Tonight (right now, approx. 11:30 PM EST) and tomorrow (Saturday, January 7th) night (approx. 9:00 PM EST) I'll be livestreaming the Arcobaleno and Primo Arcs from the KHR anime, because I can and I love these guys to little bits. ALSO, DVDS ARE CHRISTMAS PRESENTS, YES.

So, link here: [this is the link], and enjoy le anime!

Nov. 13th, 2011

I finally have pretty much everything outlined and lots written and it's all set for me to put together! So I open the document I have all set up for NaNo this year and see... this:



LOLWTF SELF I DON'T REMEMBER ADDING THAT PART AT THE BOTTOM. AND I DON'T REMEMBER BEING DRUNK RECENTLY, EITHER.

Look! It's a drive-by posting!

Hey guys, look! I've done so much on my NaNo this year!

(By 23:59 Nov 4, I should have written 6668 words.)
(Total number of words: "This is my NaNoWriMo story document. LOVE IT.")

Aren't I so productive?

ALSO, BELATED HAPPY BIRTHDAYS TO makeste !!!!!!! GIVE HER LOVE, BRO. LOVE.

I am scouring various fanfic archives for inspiration. Why have so many of the great authors disappeared? :( ANY SUGGESTIONS?! XD
HIIII AGAIN. I PROMISE I WILL BE MORE ACTIVE AFTER CANADIAN THANKSGIVING. PROMISEPROMISEPROMISE. (I should know better by now than to promise things. FFFFFF.)


Meanwhile, a plunny that I've been thinking of during work for the last few months. AKA Tsuna failing, technology being awesome, the mafia, and witness protection gone horribly, horribly wrong.Collapse )


EXCEPT, GUYS. I haven't written anything in a long while. I know I've always needed to polish my work, but it's been so LONG I don't know if I remember how to make myself sit down and write. Sob.

Any ideas? Either on how it gets started, or whatever else? I'm tempted to make this part of NaNoWriMo, so. ...AH, IT'S OCTOBER, WAY TO START THIS SUPER-LATE SELF, GFDI. D:
AND HI, LONG TIME NO SEE, I HAVE A MILLION REASONS/EXCUSES I WILL NOT BORE YOU WITH. I MISSED YOUUUUUUUU~

(And thank you, reidluver, for the birthday wishes! :D)

Read more...Collapse )


Read more...Collapse )


Read more...Collapse )



And I have many, many things to say about KHR. Also about Madoka, which means I've spent too long in Tinny's livestreams, but. WHO CARES. I enjoy ~magical girl~ animes. Especially ones that involve decapitation. WHAT I MEAN--WHAT ARE YOU--I SAID NOTHING. OOPS.


So KHR rambling will come sometime soon-ish. And it will be amazing, I am sure.

(ALSO. ASSASSIN'S CREED REVELATIONS. YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW MUCH I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS THING. HOW MUCH. CAN IT BE NOVEMBER.)

(ALSOALSO THE FINAL BOOK OF PAOLINI'S INHERITANCE CYCLE CALLED, ODDLY ENOUGH, INHERITANCE. ALSO IN NOVEMBER. CAN WE JUST SKIP DOWN TO HALLOWE'EN PLEASE?~)
I should know better than to put the Ohana spoilers through google translate. I should. Apparently, I don't.

Actually, even the properly translated spoilers are great. From the elbows? WTF? Looking forward to this chapter! :D


And I finally got my thesis defense out of the way, which is a wonderful feeling. As worried as I am about the rest of, well, everything, there's still exams to prep for, so. Off I go!

Which really just means I need a new way of procrastinating. AKA, I have episodes 74 to 178 of KHR with me, episodes 1 to 24 of xxxHoLiC, and can potentially download some more anime if anyone wants. And now have a livestream account, thank you 12 hour YGO 5Ds marathon. (Bruuuunoooooo!) If anyone wants me to stream anything?


Mm, also, there's a movie I recently watched called Lost City Raiders. I can't give you an accurate review besides:

- Ninja Priest!
- Laughing too hard, hurt stomach
- Epicly ultimate B-rate movie :D

...go watch it? XD

Today suddenly looks a little brighter~

Imma just leave this here:


From Torontoist.

Thanks, world. Maybe I do still have faith in you.



So this is, what, the nth time that Harper's Conservatives have gotten called on something? At least people finally got in gear and passed non-confidence, God. And first time ever an entire government has been found in contempt. One thing I will say about the Conservatives is that they take lessons from Vongola. When they do something, dumb, illegal, or otherwise, they don't pull their punches.

[Fanfic][KHR][27, G] Stonemason

First of all, I'm so behind on both comments and flist. I APOLOGIZE. Life has been steadily eating all my time, though admittedly a lot of it is my own fault. (Three coats, the Yuuko suit, two different polonaise and a multi-layered kimono, aka at least three separate actual kimonos layered. Why did I think this was a good idea?) Give me a couple hours to actually do grocery for the first time in three weeks (ramen, how would I live without you?), and then there will be replies! And comments! And then I can get back to being an idiot and filling my life with too many things at once.

And then there is this thing.

God. I don’t even know. This is what happens when I spend hours and hours and HOURS working on a stupid map for a stupid WIP. That I love to little bits.

No, this has nothing to do with geography. Just a mental image I’ve had stuck in my head for about forever and won’t. Leave. And was largely the influence for the actual architecture of this city. (I’m putting this much effort into something that will probably never see the light of day. Ahahaha whut? I totally have my priorities straight.)

So. 330. Howsabout them apples, eh?

Title: Stonemason
Series: Katekyo Hitman Reborn
Rating: R. M. Basically NC-17 without incredibly explicit details. Um. @dreamwidth, which tells you something.
Characters: Sawada Tsunayoshi, Giotto/Ieyatsu
Pairings: 27G, G27
Warnings: Um. Lots? Insanity, ergo torture, rape, mentions of dismemberment, decapitation, disembowelment, bloodletting, slight vampirism, and some fairly morally ambiguous fun times. There would be murder if I could work it in, but. It's kind of hard to kill someone who is already dead?
Notes: As stated, WTH DID I JUST WRITE. Also, the 27G/G27 was as much a surprise to me, considering. I was wondering how to add more squick without adding lots more squick. And then my fingers typed. I don't even. D:
Summary: Vongola walks a fine line between sanity and insanity. Or they appear to, at least. And the process of breaking someone is long and arduous, even when insanity itself isn't the goal.


( You've been asleep for a long time, Tsunayoshi. )

Quiz: Shading the Rainbow

Before I post my results: WTH, QUIZ. Asking "Earth versus Sky" is NOT a question you ask someone who knows anything about KHR. NOT. FAIR. Also: wow, this quiz. Considering you choose basically which of two things appeals to you more, I was so surprised by what I ended up choosing half the time. Still, thinking about it, it's pretty much accurate--both what I chose (acceptance versus expression was acceptance; life or history was history; etcetera), and my result. Though I'm not sure if I'm actually all that elegant. Huh.

Your rainbow is intensely shaded white, blue, and gray.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

What is says about you: You are an elegant person. You appreciate quiet moments. People depend on you to make them feel secure. You share hobbies with friends and like trying to fit into their routines.

Find the colors of your rainbow at spacefem.com.

  • Fri, 12:23: RT @Hal9000_: The truth is out there, just not on Wikipedia.
  • Fri, 12:35: ...someone stole my recycle bin. wth. On the other hand, I'd rather that than have the slush plow accidentally drag it away.
  • Fri, 12:36: Related: why is someone plowing the streets? There's nothing but slush and run-off. Are you trying to give pedestrians a cold shower?
  • Fri, 20:54: Recently discovered that there is a Dippin' Dots at the Rainbow Centre. Guess where I had lunch today?
  • Fri, 21:00: Guys. Guys. AH1N1 is a flu strain. Just because you don't hear about it that often doesn't mean it's gone. Stop freaking out.
