It's that time of year again, where I sit back and say 'wow, I'm really sixteen'!

I've probably already told this story, but during Hurricane Isabel, only one power line on our street was knocked down. It gave power to only two houses. One of them was ours. So, we just ran extension cords to our neighbor's house for the necessities and continued on our merry way until the power was back~

EDIT: And this is my first official act with my new, completely working computer~

Computers fail, everyone dies.

In non-meme-speak: my years-old laptop is on its last breaths (having Firefox open should not take 100% CPU even when I'm not doing anything!), and I'm going to need to convince dad to buy me a new one. Wish me luck.

Fun game is fun. And yes, I got 100% completion in about... 900 seconds?

Posting from a family reunion in Albequerque. Hmm, do you think when I get back that commission I ordered will be at my doorstep? That would be great.

And of course, the most productive thing I've done this trip is write the first chapter of a longer smutfic, but hey! It's 2000 words, that's good for me! And I'm a dork for fail!sex, and I need to work on my smut-writing skills, so.

So the local community theater put on Assassins Friday night, and I saw it and it was awesome, yay~

Issei was rejected at Micro. Which is fine! I didn't wanna play with you guys anyway! *shakes fist*

...but, seriously, if they'd rejected him for being too minor a character I would've understood. But he's "not shown in canon to have a crush on his male best friend or to hate women"? Seriously? Should I change that to 'seriously dislike', would that be better?

I may or may not reapp, I probably shouldn't have apped in the first place (I still have summer homework), but they had a Shirou, and I wanted to fulfill my dream of playing Issei to someone's Shirou.

FOURTH WALL WEEKEND~ DDD!Issei's thread is on the first page. And cawing's is on the sixth, and heroicpath's and rhoaias' are both on the twelfth, and you can see a bunch more of my characters in other random threads.

What else was I going to say, hmm. Finished another playthrough of Battle Moon Wars, am finishing up Part 2 of my latest FE10 playthrough, made an icon post, should probably be writing more fic - and, of course, I have summer projects from school.

300+ notecards is ridiculous. And why would anyone specify handwritten? That just makes it more painful.

Guys~ I got my report card today~

And there were these two classes I thought for sure I was getting C's in because I kind of didn't do one of the projects, eheh, and I have B's in them this quarter! And my semester grades, which are all colleges see and clearly colleges' opinions are the only ones that count, are still all A's!

♥~

This has vastly improved my day.

School's out for summer!

Woohoo!

Now, off to write something shamelessly Archer/Issei or Issei/Shirou in celebration.

All right, one exam down, six to go! And then it'll be summer break~ And DDD kink meme starts Friday~

I should probably call off the hiatus I have at DDD, it's not like it's affecting my playing at all. I-I'm too addicted.



...this Snap Links add-on is pretty handy. Hmm, and I wonder why twenty or so people clicked on my Pokemon within five minutes of each other...

June 19 to 21 is dramadramaduck's Fourth Wall Weekend~ Basically players and characters not in the roleplay can interact with the characters (probably in adddictions).

So if anyone wants to tease/make fun of/molest Issei (ewwgirls), they certainly can~ It's gonna be fun.

Going to ColossalCon on Saturday and Sunday~

What is this wild creature? An outline for a fic? No, it couldn't possibly be, I never do that...

( Oh, maybe it is one after all. )

Confirmation = complete!

Man, am I glad that's over with.

P.S. No, I really don't think I want to chant Torah at the High Holiday services with the huge crowds. Thanks for offering, but no.

Meme that I may have stolen from ergoipsofacto, who got a name change when I wasn't looking: Post a snippet - a paragraph, a few paragraphs - from six fics that you're currently working on.

( The last two are kind of NSFW, but the rest are fine. All F/SN. )

...hm. I want to make a new layout that doesn't irritate my eyes with brightness.

Yeah, I'm a tool.

Know what's pretty cool?

A year ago today, I wrote my first Isseific, Mnestis.

...man, I didn't realize I'd even been into Fate/stay night for a whole year.

Never could resist a good writing meme.

Stage 52 clear, ready for Stage 53 when the English patch comes out~~~!

Um, I should probably make this post relevant to people who don't care about my Battle Moon Wars progress. Let's see. Missed anime club last week because Dad was in another state and Mom had a meeting, so boo. There's a bunch of fic I'm working on, a surprising portion of which is genderswap - or not surprising, if you know me. And next week is the last week for my madricha job, so I won't have to deal with the headaches caused by the eighth grade class anymore. Yaaay.

EDIT: For Mother's Day we saw the new Star Trek film. Uwah, so awesome~

I have the guts to read a couple of Issei/Shirou fics out loud to my English class. That's... kind of awesome.

Stage 34 Battle Mastery get, and if I ever have to get that Battle Mastery again, it will be too soon. Goddamnit, I hate that stage. I wish I had healers there, or something.

EDIT: Act 3 complete, so far so good!

EDIT: Stage 45 clear, all Battle Masteries so far acquired. Now come a few tricky ones - I have no idea how I'm going to get the one for Wallachia and Araya's stage.

Guys.

There is a 40,000 word, 17-chapter, completed Issei-centric fic on FF.net.

And it's in French.

Who wants to see how long it'll take before I start Babelfishing it?

The first ten people to comment in this post get to request a drabble of any pairing / character of their choosing from me. In return, they have to post this in their journal, regardless of their ability. If you absolutely cannot write, I do not see why you would not be able to offer drawings or icons or something instead.

Third playthrough of Battle Moon Wars complete, Mech-Hisui get~ No Aoko this time either (I had 39 battle masteries), I guess I'll have to try for her next time. Ideally, I'd also be able to get to stage 53, but geeze, I do not want to have to get every single battle mastery. Dangit.

...I need to do work on school projects and Confirmation things this weekend. Someone remind me to do that.

EDIT: Fourth BMW playthrough, Act 1 complete, all Battle Masteries so far aquired. Doing Real route again - I only played Super once for Satsuki. I like Real route better.

EDIT: Act 2 complete, so far so good. (Wasted a bunch of BP due to the 'buffs disappear' bug, though. Haa, I should probably download Werk's patches...) Here is where it gets really hard.
