I'm Improving!

Just got back from David's birthday party. He was the only person there that I knew, and while that idea was daunting as hell when I got there, I was able to present myself in a fairly relaxed way. There used to be a time that I wouldn't have been able to do that. I'm kind of proud of myself. AAAANND my fan fic writing hobby DID come up. I was a

Poor Nick! :O

...but I kind of like it. >_>

And yay for the successful birthday party!! ^___^

[elphabachan]

Right? I just seems to fit somehow. I'd never do that sort of thing if I RP'd as Ellis, but when it's NICK I'm like 'load up on the sads, you sexy con man you!'

Yes, that was a relief and a half....

[nekocrouton]

Are you guys like, writing this down somewhere? Because I would love to read it. Ahaha. XD

[elphabachan]

Well, yeah, we are. I would have to ask Wren though if she'd be comfortable with me sharing it, and it would probably only be to you just because of her potential reticence. I will try and convince her and send you snippets, perhaps!

HAHA!

One should not RP when tired or occupied with other crap. :P

Oh oh that reminds me of something i had wanted to shoot you think link that i personally have had much use of. http://www.princessofbabylon.com/

[elphabachan]

This is true! Though I feel that even if I wasn't on shaky-ish ground emotionally lately I'd still make him suffer. Only because I love him, of course....

And EEEEEE!!!!! QAF!!!!!! I will have to explore when I get home from work!!!

[elphabachan]

I've never actually had people flat out judge me to my face when it comes to what I do for fun, in that regard. And I'm sure that had David thought that these friends would have been judgey he never would have told them.

I can understand why you would not want to necessarily flaunt your membership in the TWILIGHT fandom. Because SO MANY BITCHES BE CRAZY in that fandom. When people find out I write slash they automatically assume that I'm one of those crazy stereotypical yaoi fans, so they're kind of surprised when I, GASP, actually try and put a plot into a few of the stories that arent just flat out porn. And that my plots are actually pretty damn good (if I do say so myself....). So if people DO kind of give me a look, I say 'I'm unrepentant and I do actually write well thought out plots'.

But yeah, its not something I tell those I don't know very well....

Well that's great, I know I'd feel pretty awkward talking about my fan ficcing hobby to strangers outside of like a convention or likewise. It's nice that they weren't judging about it.

OMG so much Nick angst. I have to say I do have a horrible guilty pleasure of seeing the poor guy put through the wringer and have been so so curious about the interpretation of him selling his body at some point in his life. So yeah if you manage to get your friend comfortable with the idea of sharing your RP I would also very much like to read it.

[elphabachan]

Nick angst is just so much fun to write. I think that's how I can get over him being something of a jerk, if he has REASON to be a jerk I can dig it. So yes, let's put him through the ringer over and over again! :-)

It's always refreshing to find people who support even the most unconventional of hobbies. That's why conventions are so great. And didn't you just get back from one? Was it fun??

[scythequeen]

Yes I did just get back on Sunday from one. I had a real great time even though I was battling the sniffles through most of it. I plan to post some pictures up when I can get them organized.

[elphabachan]

Oooooh! I can't wait to see them!
