Art post [04 Jan 2007|05:41pm]
Yay for Harry Potter art.


The following two images are spoilers for my WIP Draco/Hermione, "Schadenfreude". Set in 2004, it follows Hermione as she suffers through Draco Malfoy's trials. She finds that she enjoys knowing that he will meet his death, and she takes a sick pleasure in his suffering - hence, "schadenfreude". But Draco knows this, and he enjoys torturing her with a few words behind his bars in Azkaban. He takes pleasure in her pain as well.

Title: "Oof!"
Artist: Didi
Medium: Photoshop CS and Wacom Graphire Tablet
Rating: G/K+
Notes: While packing up to move into her new flat, Hermione goofs around with Ron and Harry. While this scene has never been written, I imagine her doing this clearly.

didn't colour the box or the background. I duplicated the template and filtered it with cutout, then smudge a bit here and there.

I'm really proud of this piece. The colouring didn't take me as long as the lineart did; this was the first time I actually did the lineart without the pen tool (except on the legs, head shape and box) and I'm so proud of how THAT turned out. I couldn't have done it without twisted666's lineart tutorial.

I love the shading on her leg most of all. I really don't know why, but I do, and that's all that matters.

Again many details were lost in the resizing, especially in the hair. Maybe I'll take a leaf out of verauko's book and make a detail-shot.

WOW. That last post was FREAKIN HUGE.

So it's official: my muse is dead. I JUST. CAN'T. WRITE.

God. It really pisses me off, because I want to write "Schadenfreude" so badly and I can't.

Lack of readers pisses me off too. Why is it that only the horrible cliched fics get lots of readers? I'm so proud of "Schadenfreude" but...no one reads it. I've worked harder on it than on any other fic, so that angers me as well. It's like...you dare to be different and what's your reward? Nothing.

So I finally stopped procrastinating and fixed up "Guarding Draco Malfoy". Added everything that had to be there, fixed up errors, etc. And then...BOOM.

Power outage.

I lost it ALL.

And I'm procrastinating again. Ergh.

So now a real update.

We're considering going to the BMO. We probably won't though. My parents hate show jumping. They think it's boring and way too dangerous (I honestly don't know how those two can go together, but whatever...). The International is one you WANT TO SEE, but DAMN PHANTOM OF THE OPERA. DAMN IT. Fortunately, it IS being broadcasted on CBC, so I just have to memorize the date and time and make sure I'm not doing anything that day.

Right. I need to write a one-shot. I'm supposed to be writing a R/Hr *gags* for a contest - Court's contest, as a matter of fact, for you HP board savvy people, and...yeah...I don't WANT TO. As per usual, I'm procrastinating on that.

Hey, I have a poll function! ZOMG! Time to experiment.

Teh poll of life is hereCollapse )

Haha biatch. Will leave the poll up for a week.

And a meme:

EDIT: Right, I realized the poll may be confusing because of the many options. I'll just combine the ones that get the most votes, even if they weren't all the ones you voted for.

Fanfiction: "Nights Like This" [22 Aug 2006|12:22am]
[ mood | satisfied ]

So this is me being slightly silly. Actually this started out as a contest entry for the HP Lexicon, but I decided that it was too...er...well, not appropriate for that forum. Haha. It's a song-fic...don't read if you don't like them.

Title: Nights Like This
Author: Didi (pyrogrl)
Rating: PG for subject matter
Genre: Humour(ish)/General
Warnings: Er...cross-dressing. Ish.
Song: "Wig In A Box" from Hedwig And The Angry Inch
Characters: Severus Snape
Summary: An angsty teenage Severus Snape finds relief in becoming someone else.
Anything else: Constructive criticism is welcome. As I said, it's me being slightly silly with a character so straight-backed that this could never possibly happen. I had fun with this fic, actually. Un-beta-read. If you're interested, let me know. :)

Nights Like ThisCollapse )

Big Huge Icon Post [21 Jul 2006|10:54pm]
[ mood | ecstatic ]

I've decided to post all of my icons in one big huge post so that people don't have to search through them. I will be updating to this post and this post only. I will be putting everything into their own little categories so that they're organized. Yes, I know that this will take FOREVER. And will probably be freaking huge. They're in order: newest to oldest (well...sort of...).

When taking, please comment and tell me what ones. Example:

Snagging POTC10, POTC08, HP02, HP01, etc.

On to the icons...Collapse )

All of my credits are on my bio.

I TAKE REQUESTS. Tell me in a comment what you would like to see.

Because I felt like it. I rushed her a bit...it was already two in the morning and I knew that if I didn't finish that night I never would. I drew her without the wand, necklace and earrings because I chose to. I just wanted...Luna.

Two (2) More Pieces [18 Jul 2006|04:48pm]
I know that someone requested a Snape, and I actually have a rough sketch of him done. I just don't think I'll ever colour it. Maybe someday when my hatred for him subsides when I'm not so lazy when I finish my other character designs I'll colour him. Until then...I give you...Ron and Ginny Weasley!

I must be high. [24 Jun 2006|11:10pm]
Then again, I wouldn't know, having never been high. Anyways, I...wrote slash.

Well. Implied slash, I suppose. The intent of slash.

Those who know me know that I'm not against slash, but I generally stay away from it in HP-fandom. So those who know me will probably agree and think that I'm high. But then again, you KNOW it's me, because of the lame-core title.

And here's the drabble...Collapse )

Oh yeah, it's a drabble. In case you wondered.

"The Love Letter" ::: Implied!D/Hr [22 Jun 2006|01:47am]
For a writing contest.

9. And finally, a topic with a potentially lighter bent: Person A sends an anonymous owl to person B. Person B thinks a third person (C) sent the letter. What follows? The letter writers/recipients can be students, teachers, others or a combination.
NOTES: This is kind-of in an alternate universe…as in it’s during HBP, but it’s not all ZOMG-DRAMA!!!-ish. It’s Christmas holidays and HRH are staying for the holidays, along with Ginny, Luna, Neville, some random Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs that shall remain nameless, and some Slytherins.

The Love LetterCollapse )

I know, I know. The title is nothing great or original. And I’m not proud of nor fond of the ending. So anyways, Person A is Blaise Zabini, Person B is Hermione Granger, and Person C is Draco Malfoy. Yay for Slytherin-Gryffindor-Slytherin love triangles!
