Brigits_Flame December Entry 02 - Chaos

[kenderlord]

Chaos.

Her apartment is always a huge mess. It used to bother me a whole lot, but I’ve been with Eris for, oh, eight months now. And it’s starting to grow on me. It all started because Tethys noticed how lonely I was. This was, oh - maybe a year ago? She said I looked depressive. Which is technically untrue. I was just washing dishes! And I

This is really cute and sweet -- I love the idea of a tiny pewter bottle of hand sanitizer. Hilarious!

[kenderlord]

Thanks!

I think it's the ideal sort of six-month gift, because it's almost a backhanded compliment, and it sort of says: "You're weird and I'll never understand you, but let's stick together."

Which, hm. Is probably where most people are around six months, innit?

I love that icon! If I promise to give credit, can I steal it?

[aisling87]

Feel free to steal away. ;)

[jamais_toujours]

Haha I love it. It's so sweet and silly all at the same time :).

To be honest, I was surprised how many people went for the bad-chaos interpretation this week. I'm a pretty structured, ordered person, but I find the idea of entropy fascinating in a way that makes it beautiful rather than horrible.

I'm pleased you liked it!

You have a gift for dialogue -- and for description -- and really for the whole shebang. I always just imagine you sitting in front of your computer screen with your eyebrows raised and this wry, slightly-wicked smile. XD

I'm a sucker for realized/modernized mythology in the first place. Have you read the "Percy Jackson and the Olympians" series?

Washing clean dishes and putting them back made me grin. :D Cleaning up is cathartic...! XD

[kenderlord]

Thank you! I am flattered that you imagine my smile being wicked, because whenever I attempt a wicked smile, I think I just look kinda hungry. I have sharp canines, and it just sort of looks creepy.

I have not read Percy Jackson! but mayhap I'll check it out once I get home for break.

Um, funny story? my friend Rose just watched one of my obama-impression videos (I just posted another on the LJ) and she said she couldn't stop watching my eyebrows. I cannot help it. They are beetly.

I noted in my youth that Tom Welling on "Smallville" was possessed of extremely pronounced eyeteeth. I was apparently a twelve-year-old of the observational-hormonal inclination.

Which... is very important information, obviously. XD

I still haven't read the fourth one... because I'm extremely lame... but the first three rocked my world. They're just ridiculously clever.

(Not out for the semester yet either, eh? Damn those kids on the quarter system; I secretly resent them all. Only a little. Though I won't anymore when I get out in May...)

Expressive eyebrows are not a bad thing!

[kenderlord]

Haha I agree. How they shall writhe when we bask in the sun; with them, one month to go, but for us naught but fun.

that was a stupid rhyme.

Wonderfully sweet story. I love the image of Eris with Autumn leaves in her hair, and I love the sense of intimacy, here.

[kenderlord]

What does she look like to you?

I tend to leave visual descriptions pretty sparse, but I noticed that this entry of mine had a greater paucity of facial descriptors than usual.
-D

[merthin]

Very nice. I've got a friend like Eris, well, like Eris is described here. Nicely written and enjoyable to read.

[kenderlord]

Thank you very kindly! I only hope your friend doesn't exude entropy like Eris does.

-D

*heh* Some days, *grin*, some days.
