rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated

[greeneyedlady]

I am not actually dead. The few noble people who once track of me may have thought as much, but I am still very much alive. This summer has been a bummer. I really shoulda taken summer courses... Bored doesn't really cover things. I guess the best testament to how disinterested I've become in LJ is the fact that my subscription account expired and

wtf that juvenile comment on your fic. The review box is not a space for expressing personal opinions about pairings.

I am also reading ASoIaF, currently on Storm of Swords. Sansa is my favorite character. Theon is amusing to me despite his being a dick. I love Arya's narrative voice; it gets better as the books go on. Admittedly, I didn't like her as much in the first book, since she came across as a bit of a Straw Tomboy, but I feel like she really came into her own in book 2. I loathe Tyrion because GRRM wants us to love him so much and he's so whiney. As for Jon, I love his vow of celibacy! The part of me that acknowledges I would have become a nun had I been born any time before 1950 totally relates to him on that. I seriously dislike what happens to Jon in the book I'm reading now, but... you'll see

Hi! CC's writing is certainly not without issues (the random metaphor overload is very prominent in the first series, but toned down in the prequel). Luckily for me, her favorite characters are probably from things I've never read or seen like Buffy so I couldn't see the resemblances if I were looking for them.

I have the first two of the Libba Bray books but I honestly never finished the first. It's the first person present tense narrative that is tough for me I think...

I might like Jon Snow a lot because even though I have never seen the series, I've seen stills and he is hot. Also Robb. Also Theon, though he is kind of goofy looking (I just happen to often find dorky looking guys really hot).

LJ was down for some time anyway, you didn't miss anything

Tiger & Bunny is actually something that could hold interest for me, it is all the yaoi fanart clogging pixiv that turns me off to it. Same thing for Madoka but replace the word yaoi with moe. And I just can't get over how the heads don't seem to match the bodies. I am just too damn cynical, I think.

I can relate to your feelings really well - and I like it how you speak them out loud! I tend to be too nice to everyone while being cynical inside. Anyway, I guess I'd recommend ignoring pixiv for a while and maybe giving either a go. (I myself actually like T&B better but can't really admit that to anyone since Madoka is seen as some kind of God of anime at the moment)

I want a direwolf.
