我要飞Faye

Link-boosting because I can, and because THIS IS MUCH TRUTH MAKING: Gee, I'd love women if they didn't all suck! or There is no such thing as female characters not worth writing about, you just don't wanna.

Also can be extrapolated to There is no such thing as characters not worth writing about, you just may not wanna.

In other news, I am SO CLOSE to finishing a fic I can almost taste it. Just need to write the ending and maybe a coda. For a 20-over page pr0n fic. *headdesks* Luckily, the roast duck I had for Christmas Eve will fortify me!

It's Christmas Eve! What are you guys up to?

Lately I've been introduced to a lot of awesome things, so I thought that I should share with everyone!

1) Thanks to hallowd I have been reading Scandinavia and the World. Think Hetalia, only modern day. And focused on European countries. And OWNS its biases.

Especially since it centers around the three Scandinavian countries - Sweden, Norway and Denmark. It's IN THE NAME, DUH.

2) This MV rocks because it wasn't shot with a video cam. It was spliced from over 15,000 photos! Just watch, it's AMAZING.



3) It's the time of year for picfor1000. How does it work? Sign up by 30 Dec, get your pic, and write exactly 1000 words on it. The pics are given by theme, and this year's theme is DRESSED TO THE NINES. Isn't that awesome? Due dates are also more of a guideline than a deadline, so no pressure there.

(Hint: SIGN UP. It's FUN!)

Still a chapter worthy of bleach_onion, so I'll take a stab at it.

( Spoilers and thoughts in point form )

If you read the above, thank you! I hope some of my guesses are right.

LIVING IN THE FUTURE AS I DO, I SUSPECT IT IS NO LONGER CAPSLOCK DAY BUT THE FOLLOWING THINGS TOTALLY DESERVE CAPSLOCK.

1) CONFIRMED! PROFESSOR LAYTON AND PHOENIX WRIGHT TAKE ON A WRITER WHO HAS DROSSELMEYER TYPE POWERS! THIS TRAILER OF AWESOME WILL BLOW YOU AWAY!

2) LONGER BLEACH MOVIE 4 TRAILER (LITTLE WINDOW AT THE BOTTOM FRAMED IN GOLD~~~)

A surprise viewing of Iron Man 2 today has me rolling around and making ridiculous noises that sound like squee. The only thing that could possible make me love Iron Man 2 better if it were actually Iron Man 3.

( Spoilers will tell you why )

tl;dr version
Before knocking down all their pillars from the first movie in this one, the creators really should have considered another version of the movie that cemented those pillars further before going with the final version of Iron Man 2.


Because of Iron Man 2, I have a couple of more posts in my head: The New Heroine and her influence on the New Hero, and some fuck yeah she's awesome posts for Pepper Potts (of course!) and Natalie Rushman (Scarlett Johansson). Sorry Lily and Severus, you guys have to wait.

There have been too many posts rattling around my head, so I thought I'd do a point post where I cover all of them briefly.

- I'll only post from Dreamwidth (dw) from now onwards, but I'll crosspost entries on life and fannish squee. And probably Bleach fic. Once I untangle my head, I'll be getting a paid account and reading the lj f-list from dw too. Don't worry, the f-locked stuff is safe, and you can read why with this unofficial handy guide

- Again, if anyone wants dw codes, just holler - I still have a few.

- Sometime during a group movie watching with Mari and Ten last last weekend, I ended up falling in love with Star Trek again. Only this time, it's not a hot Vulcan that's taking up the headspace, but a grouchy doctor. *sighs dreamily over McCoy and his voice*

- Unfortunately, my love for McCoy didn't prevent me from being temporarily distracted by Kayla Silverfox from the Wolverine movie (which is a bad movie with an awesome story). Because Kayla Silverfox is exactly the type of character I like to write - a person who builds an exterior of lies and questionable morals in order to protect her tender heart. Alas, there are only so many hours in a day.

- I've been using most of those hours to read Star Trek movie fanfic. Where I KEEP TRIPPING OVER THE SLASH. Now I love slash and would probably ship Kirk/Spock like burning if not for the fact that no one has successfully managed to break up Spock/Uhura without STABBING MY HEART INTO A MILLION PIECES.

- So I decided to coin the term BFFB, which stands for Best Friends Forever with Benefits. Because who says you have to give up romance for bromance or vice-versa? A HEART HAS MANY ROOMS FOR DIFFERENT TYPES OF LOVING.

- Which is totally exemplified by Batman and Spiderman in the Marvel/DC review/parody videos by ItsJustSomeRandomGuy. Slash googles set off while watching Batman declare he's gonna help Spiderman remember his marriage? OMG THERE'S HET IN MY SLASH! THEY MUST BE BFFB!

- So yeah, Kirk/Spock are BFFB in my universe. And Kirk/McCoy. Even though I find the majority of Kirk/McCoy too fluffy.

- However, in a Star Trek Alternate Reality fic I may or may not be writing, I've got Kirk/McCoy overtures and fluff. Although the Kirk/McCoy is angsty and the fluff is actually for the McCoy/Chapel. (Yes yes I whore out the characters I love. SHUSH. Especially you Ichigo. XD)

- Again with the movies: I went out with ex-classmates to watch Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief today. It put in mind a comment that I'd read about how special effects have increased by a million times, but acting has degraded by just as much. Either that or scriptwriters are getting worse, the ex-classmates and I haven't decided. For example, chemistry between characters is not enhanced by the line - "I have strong feelings for you. I haven't decided if they're positive or negative."

- Ex-classmates proved their awesomeness during chat over McDonalds' sundaes by talking about, in no particular order: whether guns or swords were more practical for demigods living in modern times, bad movie plots, how bad the Twilight movie and books were, arguments of what elements a Japanese manga should have (One of the suggestions: at least one betrayal and one death), what sort of teachers one should date, gossip about mutual friends

- Experiencing ennui due to me doing the same old things while everyone else seems to be changing. That having been said though, I want to paraphase a post from my f-list that has since disappeared - "it may not be the best, but it's enough". And that's really the way I feel.

But should that be the way things are?
