I always miss the really obvious stuff.

[puella_nerdii]

So I do think I've recovered from the latest crippling bout of self-doubt, mostly.

Those of you who know me know that I procrastinate like hell. Not because I'm averse to doing work, but because I'm a perfectionist to the highest degree, and the task of sitting down/standing up/assuming whatever position is necessary and working on something

The inside of your head is very like the inside of mine, on this. *hugs so much* Especially on important projects. You saw how long it took me to write that Smear letter once you all said 'and this one goes in the book'.

Not to mention everything else I'm stuck on lately.

So I'm really, really pleased that you feel better about all this crazy, 'cause someone should. *smile*

(also yes OMG how did you not watch Tutu before this~)

[puella_nerdii]

Oh, I still feel the same as ever, but I want to do something about that and stop moping around, as attractive as moping around may seem. (And I am quite good at moping around.)

And as for you -- stop it. Stop it right now. I think Mith and I might need to introduce you to the write-x-words-in-x-minutes game.

(I don't know! I mean, christ, I'm an Utena fan, I really should've seen it ages ago. But I have finished the first half of the series now and I KIND OF LOVE IT A LOT. I don't know if I'll end up ficcing it, as I am entirely satisfied with the series so far and expect to remain so, considering how well it's crafted, but I uh possibly ship Fakir/Ahiru something fierce.)

[byzantienne]

eep.

But the x-words-in-x-minutes game is -- but the words have to be correct words otherwise the fic doesn't hold together with voice and theme and -- eeeeeeep.

(*griiiiiiins* Oh I think you'll remain satisfied. *does not spoil!* There are things I could fic for it, but they're thematic and meta more than anything else. And I ship Fakir/Ahiru too.)

[puella_nerdii]

Linden?

We are making you play the game.

(*nod* And as I usually write fic to fill in the missing bits -- yeah.
Mith and I are cosplaying them, I think. Because she would be such a hot Fakir. And I -- I just really really adore Ahiru. She is that kind of protagonist done right and oh god I want to hug her forever and ever.)

[byzantienne]

I should possibly commence being terrified now.

(... yes, yes you are cosplaying them and I will cosplay Rue when you do? *grins* -- and YES, I love Ahiru, for just that reason.)

[puella_nerdii]

:D :D :D

(Sounds good to me! ...the heights are a little off that way, but I don't think I'd look right as Rue, or you as Ahiru. and, uh, I know I can move like her. I ALREADY WALK LIKE A DUCK WHEN I WEAR HEELS. I MEAN.)

[byzantienne]

(You can stick me in heels. Or toe-shoes, actually, I used to be able to wear them. ... and yes, we'd both look somewhat wrong with that casting reversed.)

France closes his fingers on all of that cream silk that Russia's tied up into a cravat -- unties some of the elaborateness of it, quirking his fingers under the edges of the knot. The silk catches on his knuckles when France pulls up on it. Russia resists, much more than he'd expected -- doesn't he want to be kissed? And how is France supposed to kiss him without getting him all the way up onto this bed?

"Cher," France comments, pointedly, and pulls harder.

-- it is somewhat distressing when Russia, instead of sliding up France's chest, throws him against the headboard. It also hurts.

/don't mind me, just passing by

[twistedsheets10]

Ow, France. Ow. It is not a good idea to pull Russia's cravat/scarf/whatever. It NEVER is.

THIS THREAD PLEASES ME.

I have always wanted to do Princess Tutu cosplay but I lack the Skills.
