Happy Birthday astrokender and skyrat13!!!!

I hope you both have an excellent day today!



astrokender, I tried and tried to write something but all I came up with was fail. ARG! Umm, I'll try again tonight! Maybe when I'm not consumed with cosplay I won't fail so much. Also if you have a request/prompt or anything that you'd like to see that would work as a ficlet (~2000k words), I'd love to hear it!












In Otakon countdown news, I still have: WIGS OMG!!!, Shakky's ridiculous belt, fringe for the shawl/scarf, banner for Grand Jipangu, weapons!, and Wiki to go. I finished Brian's hakama last night. God, hakama are annoying. Seriously. Oh and I need to clean my house and run a billion errands and find time to sleep.


ALSO, RE: LJ peeps meeting up at Otakon
I was staring at the schedule and there seemed like a couple of good times. Firstly, chibi_trillian's panel is at 11:30 pm on Friday. So there's that. Also, One Piece movie 8 is being shown on Saturday from 5 - 6:30 if people wanted to try and meet up at/during/following that. Finally, "Anime's Pirate Legacy" panel, no doubt being run once again by the guy I call Southern Sanji, is at 10:30 on Saturday evening. I'll probably hit all of those.

Also, the One Piece cosplay.com photoshoot is Saturday morning at 11 am by the outdoor fountains and will likely move over to the harbor/ship/cannons later.

I generally run around and spend half my time in the dealers' room/artists' alley as well so if you see a Rayleigh/Grand Jipangu Ben, or Shabondy Usopp, odds are pretty good that it's me. I'm weird and awkward but very approachable!

Had my HIV vaccine checkup yesterday. Only one more to go now! Then it's on to...more vaccines? We'll see. I have an interview at JoAnn's tonight. Looking, reluctantly, for a part-time position to take up once Otakon is over. We just really need the money. Sigh.
Also, looks like MayhemFest is out of the picture. Which means I MUST go see Stratovarius and Edguy this fall and maybe some other shows. No news on the house. Starting to stress except Otakon is taking up most of my time. Some good looking panels this year. I may actually go to some! Also, cosplay is progressing but I still have to sew for a few more days.

Man...I need sleep and to stop being addicted to Bubble Town.

1. Style all wigs, OMG! The part I hate the most. Figure out how the fuck to jigger Zack's ridiculous pink wig. Think lots of glue and maybe a headband and some anchored styrofoam.

2. Shoes. Always saved for last. Need to dig through closet and figure out what I have and what I need. Visit GW.

3. Thursday: Blue Dragon. Shu and Kluke. See 1 for Shu and 2 for both. Also, iron Kluke's dress and find and cut out silhouettes and test with flashlights.

4. Friday morning: Reborn. Ryohei and Tsuna. See 1 and 2 for both. Find bandages for Ryohei. MITTENS OMG. Paint Tsuna's shirt.

5. Friday Evening: Grand Jipangu. Shanks and Ben and Yasopp. See 1 for Yasopp and Ben and 2 for all. Shanks hakama. Ben's katagainu. Banner? Yasopp's guns.

6. Saturday morning: One Piece. Rayleigh and Shakky. See 1 for Rayleigh...i.e. straightening crepe hair and figuring out cuts for beard. See 2 for both. Need glasses for Rayleigh. Need to find belt and wrap for Shakky and add fringe to bottom of ridiculous pants. (Kill self for painting spider feet on shirt backwards)

7. Saturday night: One Piece. Shabondy Usopp and Nami. See 2 for both (I think I have but must confirm). Nami's necklace. Finish Usopp's shorts. Airbrush leotard. Slingshot! Maybe if I have time, cheap ass Clim-A-Tact and Usopp's Bag'O Tricks.

8. Sunday morning: Zack and Wiki. Zack. See #1 and commence epic freak out. Detail work. Hat. Finish Wiki

Also got around to reading last week's KHR. Um, can we say OVERKILL much? Honestly...

And now the anime portion of springkink, with the same SUCKS, MEH, OKAY, or I LIKE IT rating system in place.

First off, Bleach...

Title: Aristocats
Rating: PG
Warnings: innuendo, cheese
Prompt: Bleach, Shunsui/Ukitake: catboys - 'would you like to groom my tail?"
Word count: 343
A/N: This one just SUCKS. I couldn't come up with anything good and I was writing it at the last minute and it just blows chunks. Which makes me mad and a bit irritated but oh well.

( ”Aristocats” )


Title: Bone Deep
Rating: G
Warnings: Sap
Prompt: Bleach, Ukitake/Shunsui: massage - "I am no stranger to your skin"
Word Count: 427
A/N: And my second attempt at Bleach fic. This one is a MEH because there's a line in here I really like and a concept I'd be interested in exploring more. But this one's pretty lame too. Man, I feel terrible about it too because Shunsui and Ukitake are like the only characters I like in Bleach aside from Chad. I totally failed to do them any justice.

( Bone Deep )


And now a xxxHoLic one...

Title: Selfish/Selfless
Rating: G
Warnings: None
Prompt: xxxHolic, Ame Warashi/Zashiki Warashi: looking out for her best interests - "That human's no good for you"
Word count: 335
A/N: Second xxxHoLic fic ever and I LIKE THIS ONE. It says what I want it to say without being cheesy and I feel it's IC and kind of cute.

( Selfish/Selfless )


Finally, the 3 One Piece prompts I answered...

Title: Tangled
Rating: PG
Warnings: Zombies, Spoilers through Chapter 454
Prompt: One Piece, Franky/Robin: bondage - Robin in the spider's web, at Thriller Bark
Word count: 656
A/N: This one is a MEH. I was lazy and last minute on this one and I was half-tempted to go further but didn't. I suspect I suck at writing Franky.

( Tangled )


Title: In Her Grasp
Rating: PG
Warnings: Spoilers through the end of Enies Lobby/Water 7
Prompt: One Piece, Nico Robin/Usopp: femmedom & bondage (using her devil fruit power) - got eight arms to hold you tight
Word count: 1629
A/N: This is a borderline MEH/OKAY piece. There are parts I like and there are parts that suck and I am on the fence about Robin's comments. On the other hand, I feel like Usopp turned out okay.

( In Her Grasp )


Title: Correspondence
Rating: R
Warnings: Self-Pleasure, present tense
Prompt: One Piece, Nami/Vivi: (post-Arabasta) masturbating to letters each other's letters - i can imagine/you're here in my arms
Word count: 1163
A/N: I LIKE THIS ONE! Probably my favorite of all of them because I think it captures bits and pieces of their lives very well and also that sorrow-tinged nostalgia and longing that I like to throw into NaVi. For some reason, all the yuri prompts worked out the best for me this time around...

( Correspondence )





And that's that. Now back to not posting fic again...

Bwahaha! springkink is over and my flist can finally go back to normal size! In any event I wrote for 10 prompts this time around.

Here are the non-anime prompts first, with my included rating system of SUCKS, MEH, OKAY, or I LIKE IT.

Title: Self-Discovery
Rating: R
Warnings: See Prompt, mention of turtlecest
Prompt: TMNT - Raphael - anonymous sex/glory hole - "give in to your confusion"
Word count: 1044
A/N: This one gets a borderline MEH/OKAY rating from me. I had a lot of backstory in my head but I was way too fucking lazy to put it down and I think the story reflects that. Also, I have no idea why I keep volunteering for these as I don't really feel that much of a connection with Raph, but I suspect if I didn't, no one else would.

( Self-Discovery )


Title: Bandages
Rating: G
Prompt: Circle of Magic, Lark/Rosethorn: shared magic -- we sew and sow together
Word count: 963
A/N: First time writing for this universe and this one actually gets an I LIKE IT! It's set in the middle of Briar’s Book, btw.

( Bandages )


Title: Captured Morning
Rating: PG13
Warnings: Kissing, Implications, Sheets with a mind of their own
Prompt: Circle of Magic, Lark/Rosethorn: slow, lazy sex -- It's always good to be home
Word count: 465
A/N: Second Circle of Magic fic, this one gets an OKAY for perhaps too modern dialogue. It takes place after Melting Stones

( Captured Morning )



Title: Backfire
Rating: PG
Warnings: Innuendo, Machine Tentacles
Prompt: Thundercats, Panthro/Tygra: bondage - That's an interesting device, Panthro; what's it for?
Word count: 1126
A/N: And my first Thundercats fic. XD This one gets a MEH. Based totally on an episode I recently watched on Comcast on Demand, which reminded me just how cheesy this show really is.

( Backfire )

So I survived the long stretch of Thursday through Saturday that encompassed the closing of my grandfather's life. There's just something so tiring about grief and dealing with it and watching others cope as well. Also, viewings are totally creepy and have cemented in my mind my intention to donate my body to medical science. Also, Brian decided that we need to have one hand a piece removed and preserved when we die and made into a creepy monkey's paw-esque thumb-wrestling heirloom to forever disturb and amuse all our relatives. It will be awesome. Seriously, though, the service was very nice and my dear grandmother was endlessly stoic and so incredibly strong despite all the family worrying about her.

It was crazy, too, because EVERYONE came. Every last cousin of the immediate family and a bunch of my grandfather's siblings and cousins (he was one of 19 children so you can imagine all the people even though he was one of the last ones left) and various other friends and acquaintances and whatnot. All of my cousins are married. My sibs and myself are the last holdouts (maybe because we're the youngest bar one since my mother is the youngest daughter) and I was greatly amused to find that discussing wedding plans with me had been named verboten! Much to my satisfaction, actually. Jeeze, we'll get to it maybe, when we get to it. And most of them have kids and they were all ridiculously adorable but I think Katie's have got to be the cutest and so blond and hyper and sweet. I can call the adorable because I saw them for a few hours, XD, and didn't have to hold any of them. That's just how I like my contact with children.

The nicest part was that my sister (Hi, Eleanor, now that I know you're lurking!) flew in from Phoenix. I haven't seen her since she moved out there in Dec. of '07 so it's been a while. She had awesome kitty pictures and interesting news and it was nice to hook up both on Thursday night and then again on Saturday - although Raymond needs to quit smoking already!

Brian and I also went to Charlestown on Saturday to try our luck at the slots. Neither of us have ever done it before and we figured, eh, what the heck, and gave it a try. We budgeted $10 but left after $4 because IT WAS SO FUCKING BORING!!! Seriously, how the hell do people get addicted to something so dull? Also it was loud and full of old people smoking. So we left and spent the rest of the money on ice cream at A&W that ended up tasting like rip-off.

Finally, we lazed around yesterday and just kind of recovered from everything. Somehow last week seemed to last a million years. Anyway, we watched Inkheart, which was okay, and then we watched Outlander. OUTLANDER IS THE BEST DAMN MOVIE I'VE SEEN IN A WHILE (excluding UP, but that's in its own category). I was expecting horrible cheese, which would have been fun in its own way, but the movie was actually damn good. Space dude (turns out Earth's a failed seed colony) crashes in Norway in 709 A.D. after a badass alien thing kills the rest of his crew. He loses his high tech gear and has to hook up with a clan of vikings to defeat it. There were some non-period touches but nothing that made me scream like in Pathfinder and the weapons and the beards were top notch. Good blood and violence as well and a plucky heroine who I actually respected and moderate antagonists who turned out to be cool. Also, Gunnar and Bjorn rock my world. Too bad they both bought it. Anyway, GREAT MOVIE, A+++, I highly recommend it and we will probably hunt it down on dvd once we have some cash.

Now it's back to the last-minute cosplay grind for me.

So, in yesterday's USA TODAY, the big caption above the front page picture was "Recession Generation" followed by an article titled "Those Just Starting Out Find The Game Changed: Young People Brace For A Lower Standard Of Living"

It would have helped if the caption under the picture (featuring a fairly attractive couple ages 28 and 30 sitting in lawn chairs in front of some shrubs and the side of a house) didn't explain how the couple was approved for $550,000.00 mortgage but "bought a home only worth $335,000.00"

LOL

Yeah, that's a lower standard of living all right.

-_- And here I'm stressing over $108,000.


ETA: What the HELL, computer/LJ? For the past 3 days my page (and only my page and my Friends' page, has been all fucked up. But not when viewed through Firefox or through IE on the home computer. I even broke down and installed IE8 but it didn't make a difference. I don't know what's going on but it's pissing me off and I REALLY don't like Firefox enough to make it my default browser...

Well, nothing good to update with yet again, just the minutia of my life. I guess the most important - and sad - thing of note is that my grandfather passed away on Sunday. It wasn't unexpected per se, but it hit my mother fairly hard since she'd been up to visit him for Father's Day less than an hour before he actually died. He was in the final stages of Alzheimer's so in some ways his passing is something of a relief. I'm just really concerned about my grandmother as all she's done for the past four years is care for him 24/7. They were married for 66 years and very rarely apart. Also, she has macular degeneration and pretty much only has a tiny range of peripheral vision left so now the family is concerned about what she's going to do with herself as most of the usual activities are completely out of the question. The funeral is on Friday and I know it'll be somewhat rough on me then but for the most part I've been okay with this. I made my peace several years ago when most of all but his most daily functional memories left him and now it's almost like an epilogue rather than a real ending.

Beyond this, I'm continuing more or less apace. I finished all of the Hitman Reborn anime last night up to the present so now I'm current with both the anime and manga. The whole reincarnationesque feel of the most recent chapters is a little worrying, because I don't know how I feel about that, but for the most part I'm continuing to enjoy it. Although, NEEDS MORE RYOHEI!!!!

Regarding One Piece, as much as I'm enjoying the antics in Impel Down, I miss the rest of the Strawhat crew dreadfully and my lack of a Zoro fix is, I think, part of the reason for the lack of creativity from me. Although...now that I'm current with Reborn, perhaps it's time to hit up the One Piece anime again for more than just quick Rayleigh screencaps...I never did actually watch the Kuma fight on Thriller Bark and maybe that's what I need for some motivation.

Also, randomly downloaded the first 20 episodes of Axis Powers Hetalia. I haven't watched it yet and I'm actually rather nervous about doing so. I only have a brief understanding of the premise to go on and, as a history student, I have a lot of reservations/concerns. On the other hand, I've heard it's luz-tastic and I'm admittedly curious. If it's any good, maybe I'll go seek out the manga.

As for writing, only 2 more springkink prompts to go and then I can throw them all here, for what it's worth. Also, I have a dilemma. What does one do when one reads a fic that in many ways parallels one you yourself have half-written on your hard drive? There was a really decent ZoLu fic posted in the past week that is similar in a disturbing number of ways to the 8 pages of the ZoSopp H/C I've owed ladykarasu for like over a year now. I don't know whether to keep it going now or just completely scrap it and try to start over again (although I'd rather not seeing as it took me FOREVER to come up with a scenario for it in the first place). Bah, this is really bothering me.

Jogging continues, despite knee pain. It's almost cathartic in a weird way, like a strange new form of masochism to inflict upon myself. Also started adding push-ups into my free-weight routine since that apparently is good for toning. I HATE push-ups.

Oh, and I turned in applications at JoAnn's and Wonderbook in my search for part-time work. I'm hoping Wonderbook will hire me since it's for the warehouse and I can avoid contact with people. That would be nice. I'm not thrilled about the whole second-job thing but I can really use the money so I suppose I just need to resign myself.

School is about 85% resolved for the fall and I'm feeling much better as a result. Still need to get a waiver signed and submitted and finalize my financial aid and then I'll be all set. Oh, and of course get back to working on my thesis but I've concluded that I may as well more or less forget it until after Otakon and then slam into it all the way up until Dragon*Con and maybe that way I'll get a first draft out of myself.

Finally, cosplay is coming along nicely. I have a decent amount left to do still but not so much that I feel overwhelmed. I added in a Shakky cosplay for Sherri and I STILL have to determine which versions of Ryohei and Tsuna for us but most of the major work is complete. Tonight will be Rayleigh's shirt and beginning to put the flowers on Nami's Shabondy shirt for me.

Random: I love this icon!
ETA: New One Piece chapter spoilers...Ho Shit! NOOOOO! Man, and he had my new nakama vote too....

Bleh...I didn't go jogging for 5 days, during which time my knees got a little weird. Finally ran again last night, wearing both braces, and this morning at work the right one keeps wanting to give out on me and hurts like a bitch. Also feels bruised of all things...I think I'm going to switch up the braces despite my left knee ostensibly being the bad one. I think I've been unconsciously favoring it at the expense of the right one and now that one's fucked. On the other hand, I AM noting a bit of endurance improvement so that makes me happy.

Weekend was...not terribly productive in many ways but it was fun. I spent most of Friday making the kimono for Yasopp and wasting time on Fishdom and other online games. Then on Saturday Brian and I went down to Baltimore to scout out the Quality Inn we're staying at for Otakon. It's a new hotel and there wasn't much info about it so I wanted to see exactly where it was. It's about 1.5 blocks farther up and back then where the Wyndham used to be but it's right on the food strip! Yay! 7-11, McDonalds, Dunkin' Donuts, Burger King, Subway, and some random hole in the wall sandwich shop are all right there! That'll make life a lot easier. The CVS and the Rite Aid are also on that road. Parking looks to be convenient as well, once we figured it out. Barring rain dampening our fun, I suspect that this will be a great hotel and room for the price and it also has a fountain and other excellent outside architecture for photoshoots.

We headed off to Yakitori One for dinner and there we ran into plotbunny_tiff and her neighbors, which was awesome and a nice way to cap off an excellent meal. I don't really remember what all we did after we got home but I suspected it mainly consisted of me lying around and being lazy.

Also managed to take care of father's day stuff and realize that I become more like my father every year. I suppose by the time I'm forty I'll be too weird for normal contact but that's all right. At least Brian will have had time to get used to it.

Yesterday, despite almost no sleep as a result, I managed to partially deal with school malarky. Dr. Williams was cooler about it than I expected. I think stepping down is making him very happy. So I'm waiting on an email response from George Washington University now. There's a cool looking class there and all the local DC schools are part of a consortium but the class is closed so I have to see if I can get in somehow. On the one hand I really want to because it's an excellent looking class. On the other, it's $1200 a credit hour at GWU so it would be like $3600 for a class that meets for 2.5 hours a week for like 16 weeks. That kind of feels like a rip-off. And if I don't get in, I can just take Dr. Mayo's 482 and be done with it. I'd rather do that actually, but in good faith I have to try for the other first.

House continues to move along. Getting nervous now. We might close before Otakon and that just blows my mind.

Oh, and my parents are trying to adopt a basset hound named Flash. XD It was rather random of them. Which is typical.

And that's all. I just wanted to whine about my knees and babble for a bit. It's sad. I'm writing a bit but it's all for springkink and I can't motivate myself yet to do more. Maybe once I get some finalizations on situations...

Jogging sucking less again, except that my knees finally caught up with me. Orz, two braces is gonna be lame but I suppose it's better than the alternative. At least my thighs have stopped aching. It was almost fun yesterday running in this very faint drizzle. Although I felt bad for the pair of ducks I kept disturbing.

We have some positive news on the house. Nothing 100% concrete at the moment but generally good and with a much faster response time than I had been expecting. Some minor complications but at the moment we do have ways around them if need be.

School issues progressing less well but I do have a meeting on Monday that will hopefully settle everything so I can get my loans arranged/deferred. As for the paper... >_>
Let's just say I've been taking a longer-than-intended break. If I can just get this resolved on Monday so I'm not so stressed...that would be a big help.

Speaking of stress, writing has been spectacularly awful and I feel so lame and awkward at the same time. Geeze, I just want to not write utter fail but I can barely bring myself to type. And what comes through is trash. Bleh.

On the other hand, cosplay coming along. Not quite as quickly as I might like but no huge issues have yet emerged. XD Sherri's Yasopp kimono is my project for tonight. PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE upcoming Grand Jipangu fillers, don't feature Shanks and crew! As much as I've YEARNED for them to make an appearance, I'm 2/3 done now and I don't want to remake anything. Still a LOT ahead of me but nothing unmanagable as long as I keep at it. Gotta decide which Ryohei version still and if I want to stick Sherri in a Tsuna outfit. XD She's got the innocent face for it.

Got a call back from NIH but nothing really known until some time next week. If I have no news by next friday, I really will have to pick up a part-time job. Ugh. C'est la vie I suppose.

Also...because I can...RYOHEI!!!! Kangaryuu!!!! XD Me? Obsessed? Maybe just a little...

A tie between pepperoni pizza and mongolian beef. And now I'm hungry.



Reborn fangirl-age: TYL Ryohei! EEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeEEEEEEEEEE! TYL Hibari and TYL Ryohei failing to have a meaningful conversation and lots of Ryohei shouting! EEEEEEEEE! Lussuria mentions!!! I am so obsessed. Also, I find myself disturbingly fond of anime!Haru. I really really like how spazzy and weird she is. And that little 'ha-hi' noise is retardedly cute. I SWEAR I will put photoshop on this computer soon because I must make dumb icons before I die.



Random: Reading sourcebooks for League of Extraordinary Gentlemen makes me want to read every single book mentioned and I am sad when I realize how hard it is to get ahold of most of them. Also, I <3 Robert E. Howard.

Jogging still sucks but not as hard as it did last week.

Meme from chibi_trillian and skyrat13

1. Anyone who looks at this entry has to post this meme and their current wallpaper on their LiveJournal.
2. Explain in five sentences why you're using that wallpaper!
3. Don't change your wallpaper before doing this! The point is to see what you had on!



I change my wallpaper maybe twice a year and I've used this one for about 8 months. It's one of my favorite Oda colorspreads (within the top 3) and I even have a really big nice print of it hanging in a frame on my wall at home. There's just something so calm and relaxing about the picture, esp. with the light reflecting on the water. Also, Zoro's happily smiling for a change and I have a weird relationship with trains thanks to my childhood.

Meme from serrende

Comment to this entry and I'll pick three of your fandoms. You must then update your journal and answer the following questions:

01: What got you into this fandom in the first place?
02: Do you think you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
03: Favorite episodes/books/movies/etc.?
04: Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
05: Do you think that more people should get into this fandom?

I got Metalocalypse, One Piece, and Discworld from serrende
( Much less eloquent answers than hers under here )

And one more meme courtesty of serrende

Give me a character/pairing from any fandom I participate in and I'll give you one fanon that I don't agree with.


And now I'm off to watch more Reborn and maybe sew a kimono later.

RIP David Eddings

Sparhawk and company are still among my favorite high (and low, XD) fantasy characters ever.

...bored bored bored.

Jogging still sucks. This headache sucks more. Lacking in motivation sucks the most.

Blargle, so much crap to do and think about and just...when did I get old and full of responsibilities? And why all at once?! In any event, NIH PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE come through for me with some weird experiment because I don't want to run out and get a part-time job for two months. That would utterly blow and put a crimp in my paper-writing and cosplay plans. And I gotta keep reading and stay on top of things this month because otherwise it'll be crazy bill time mess, which should be deferred but I need to get a move on.

Also, jogging SUCKS. Ugh. But Brian and I need to seriously get in shape so we're sucking it up despite all the aches and pains.

UP on the other hand is the complete opposite of jogging. I haven't cried so much at a movie in a long time but it was just so...so...1000000x better than Wall-E and restored my faith in Pixar. It's just so damn beautiful. And not a little sad.

Gotta get to writing for springkink since I signed up for like 12 entries and the first two are due on friday. Thankfully I have a mental handle on the One Piece ones. It's just a matter of doing it.

Enjoying the FUCK out of Katekyo Hitman Reborn, esp. now that I found all the episodes I was missing. I am such a sucker for a good shonen show, esp. one with creative fights, and now that Tsuna isn't so damn annoying I'm really into it. Also, Ryohei. XD New character crush for me. I kinda want to fic but well a)cosplay focus, b)stress/money concerns, and c)nerves. I dunno, other than Metalocalypse, which felt/feels completely natural, writing for fandoms makes me really nervous and even my One Piece footing feels a little shaky right now. In any event, I don't have time at the moment and want to finish the anime first anyway. Just got through the Varia arc so now I have nothing but epic future arc ahead of me. (Current with the manga and am loling at Yamamoto's bandaged face combined w/cycle to try and cover my epic lack of Ryohei disappointment.) And I need to put Adobe on this laptop so I can make a couple of icons because now I want them.

Finally, rediscovering Megadeth's "Risk" album all over again and remembering how much I love it. 'I'll Be There' is still such an amazing (if totally cheesy and extremely shonen-esque) song.

You saw me slide, you saw me fall
We kept our pride through it all
We started screaming

When skies are dark, no sun shines through
I know I see the light in you
We stopped dreaming and started believing

I'll be there for you, when you walk through the fire
I'll be there for you, when the flames get higher
When nothing fits and nothing seems right
Till the very last breath of my life, I'll be there for you
I'll be there

Sigh. Sometimes I wish I could multitask. Brain is completely unwilling to write at the moment. At all. Ideas yes, actual writing...no. I suspect being completely consumed with cosplay is the partial culprit, along with stress because that always borks me to hell and back.

Anyway, ARGH to ReBorn for Chance game results. I wanted Ryohei. Ah well.

Flist? Does anybody have Reborn eps 95+? And would be willing to share? I'd find some form of compensation! I really REALLY REALLY want to watch them. I'm kinda obsessed now and the fighting has me hooked but good.

There is no point to this post other than to complain and beg. XD

(I need Ryohei/Reborn icons now)
