Second Update Thing!

I've gotten more of a life to update TWICE today. Oh the horror.

Updated:

+ I will eventually move all my stuff from Nay's crazy meme somewhere for readingness.

+ Sev? I just pimped [profile] ff_fanlisting to people IN REAL LIFE. Cool geeky people, but real people. I cannot believe I just did that.

+ I might be hanging with a gamer club around here. And playing Exalted. Depends on how lazy I am. XD

+ Saw Stardust. It's adorable. My mom should see it. I want a Captain Shakespeare in my closet.

+ Funny thing about seeing Stardust, I was called in last minute as a cure for third wheeling.

+ I got to say "my girlfriend is ninja_stripper" in public. I have no idea why that is so cool.

To Do:

+ Finish my Terra costume. For realz.

+ Attempt to pimp [profile] ff_fanlisting to some more people in real life. Maybe random people on the street.

+ Stop feeling embarrassed when you admit you write fanfic. A lot of it. Mostly about a minor character with questionable sexuality. Breathe.

+ Watch Avatar.

+ Finish watching Firefly so I can quote like a pro.

Finish my Terra costume. For realz. If there are no pictures, you'll make pirates everywhere cry. ;_;

1. Yes. XD And this is to another fanfic writer too! I can't help what I like and it is amoral sexually ambiguous old men.

2. When it's finished! I still need the blue sashy thing and the jewelry. I have the belt, the boots (almost), and the main dress. Oh, and I need the shoulderpads. Complicated costume.

I'm probably going to collect all the drabbles posted into a file for download on that entry, so people don't have to comb through all the threads. Would you be cool with me including yours (fully credited, of course!)?

[identity profile] venefica-aura.livejournal.com 2007-08-22 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, of course. I don't mind at all. Attempting to be less shy anyway. XD Sorry I wrote so many (and now that Drak commented and considering she owns my soul I'll prolly write two more).

"If anything happens, shoot 'em."

"Sir?"

"You know. Politely."

"If someone tries to kill you, you kill 'em right back!"

"I don't know how to put this politely, but...how do I know you won't kill me in my sleep?"

"Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable."

"Yessir, Captain Tight Pants."

"This is Vera. She is my very favorite gun. I'll trade ya."

[identity profile] venefica-aura.livejournal.com 2007-08-22 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
I nearly DIED when he proposed that trade. XD

"I know him. And I think he's a psychotic lowlife."

"And I think calling him that is an insult to the psychotic lowlife community."

"Looks can be deceiving."

"Not as deceiving as a lowdown, dirty... deceiver."

"Well said. Wasn't that well said, Zoe?"

"Had a kind of poetry to it, sir."

"We're here to do anything we can. This is my crew, you'll meet the rest of them later."

"Can I start gettin' sexed now?"

"Well, that was all kinds of horrific."

"Yes, I'd forgotten you're moonlighting as a criminal mastermind now. Got your next heist planned?"

"No. But I'm thinking about growing a big black mustache. I'm a traditionalist."

(it needs it)

"This is a good land. We shall rule over it and call it...THIS LAND."

"I think we should call it YOUR GRAVE."

"Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!"

"Ha ha ha! MINE IS AN EVIL LAUGH."

Can't top that. That is the king of quotations. Oh Wash.

"Ten percent of nuthin' is...wait, lemme do the math here...nuthin' into nuthin'...carry the nuthin'..."

OH MY GOD. I feel that we need to talk over AIM at some point.

XD Clearly. When are you typically on?

[identity profile] irish-ais.livejournal.com 2007-08-22 03:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh. All the time. Am on now. DarthCosplayer (oh, why yes, I am a huge nerd!)

Stardust was so incredibly awesome.
Thanks to Neil Gaiman my husband and I got to see it two days before it's release. I will own it as soon as possible. It separated from the book loads, but I think it was a general improvement.

Avatar is cute crazy fun.

Most people I know equate fan writing with original writing(not that it is the same just that they view writer of it the same way they view writers of anything) so I've never had anything to be embarrassed about.

[identity profile] venefica-aura.livejournal.com 2007-08-22 01:46 pm (UTC)(link)
That's cool. I guess I still have that tendency to want to leave a nice impression on people. XD I may talk a lot, but that's usually to fill awkward silences and the like.

HA. SPREAD THE WORD, MAN, SPREAD THE WORD.

This was me.

Them: *saying fun geeky things I missed talking about in public*

Me: So, I'm kind of a database nerd and a friend of mine and I are working on some kind of FF fanlisting thing...

Them: Oh cool.

Me: *FAILS AT LIFE*

HAH. Whereas my friends and I sort of roll the other way:

Jeff: What are you working on now?

Me: A fandom thing.

Jeff: ...does it have buttsex?

me: *throws pillow*
