Walking the streets
With you and your worn out jeans
I can't help thinking
This is how it ought to be
Laughing on a park bench
Thinking to myself
Hey, isn't this easy?
And you've got a smile
That could light up this whole town
I haven't seen it in awhile
Since she brought you down
You say you're fine
I know you better than that
Hey what you doing
With a girl like that
If you could see
That I'm the one
Who understands you
Been here all along
So why can't you see
You belong with me.

... apparently there is also a
guy/guy version.
art source (yep, that's the April donation!)
also, loved THIS:
I APPROVE ♥
source So there's
this meme going around that tells you to pick 20 series from
Better Than It Sounds and have people guess which series they are. But SOMETIMES, these descriptions are not so much Better Than It Sounds, but Rather, EXACTLY What It Says On The Tin. TRY THIS ONE:
A boy with a misleading name tries to solve peoples' problems using a Sharpie and a hammer. Cast includes a green amnesiac, a neurotic vampire, a masochistic med-school dropout, a pervy sharkboy, and a walking grandfather clock.
I WONDER WHAT IT COULD BE.
Also, I drew someone a
cat (warning, that post is somewhat image-heavy as it has lots of Versailles pictures on it). This is very important because the last thing I drew when I was killing time was a series of caricatures of the various characters from the Series Up There, on someone else's iPhone. IT WAS LIKE FINGERPAINTING ART. I am a terrible person and very easily amused, and so I laughed very hard at the fact that the easiest characters to caricature were that neurotic vampire and also that pervy sharkboy.
Also I am one of those people for whom, in fandom, the fastest way to change my mind about characters is to first change my heart, so:
Art Recs from That Series
1. So the Walking Grandfather Clock got his own tag for
this, and he gets another for that hilarious description up there.
Here's another artwork by the abovelinked artist: and why, yes, I think silhouettes and harsh shadows do go well with him. I love the artworks that bring out another side of him, and these definitely count.
2. I really like this artwork for
that neurotic vampire - fascinating take on how his... outlook on people, shall we say... has... changed.
3. I like the style in which
this Toni art was executed.
4. ... I AM A MASSIVE INCORRIGIBLE SAP AND I LOVED
this Veser and Lee artwork to PIECES. (Veser is wearing Lee's jacket how cute is that).
5. ... I AM SORRY I AM HORRIBLE BUT
this Lee artwork MADE ME LAUGH (I loved it, don't get me wrong). The poor thing!
6.
Zombie, and finches. I love the peaceful feel of this one. ♥
Fic Recs from That Series
1.
This fic has Lee as a writer in the theatre, Veser's Life in the Hatch Family Backstory, More Acts of Assorted B@S+@rdry from Veser's Dad, and follows Veser through Chapter 2. Oh ♥. THAT IS ALL I WILL SAY.
2.
Feeding On Fever - a Conrad/Toni/Veser fic which made me all kinds of happy. There's Veser/Toni, as well as Conrad/Toni and Veser/Conrad (if I read this right), as well.
Not Quite Art Comments from that Series
1. Ples cosplay with a story!
Take the Time to Love.
2. There's a fairly comprehensive Twitter RP cast for the series now, and you can find them all
on this follow list. ... one of my favourite moments was
this one. Yes, I am terrible. It made me like Ples more.
