Back In Traction

[mariagoner]

Y'know what? Life is pretty damn good now. I'm in Chicago, I just passed a wonderful day outside in the unseasonably lovely weather with astrangerenters, digitaltart, lindensphinx and newredshoes by my side, I'm getting along perfectly well with my husband (as arranged marriage couples go, we're thankfully more Ashe/Rasler than Ovelia/Delita!) and life is generally peachy keen for me. So consider

Dude. Total missage on my end too. ;)

welcome back!

[quastar]

Yeah, welcome back to LJ. In the midst of my exams now, but everything else is fine. Hopefully will be able to read a new story sometime soon! :D

Re: welcome back!

[mariagoner]

I hope I can finish up that story sometime soon. ;) Right now, my problem is that I have almost too many things to do!

Good luck in your exams, btw. I'm sure you'll do well.

Oh! And since you asked about the extremely fucked up Vayne-Gabranth-Larsa fic, it's been posted up as The Teeth of Serpents. Apparently, I suffer from a dreadfully inability to write a Vayne who: a) doesn't idealize and love his younger brother desperately and b) can justify doing godawful things for his brother's sake. Hopefully it'll tide you over final exams somehow? ;)

Hey, guess what: it's Christmas all over again! At least for me... :P

I'm done with exams now. And what's great is that you have a new story that I can read. So that's like a present for me after my exams. :D

Thank you very much, much appreciated! ;D

#2 is definitely shiny to me...dunno how much help I'd be, but I'd be glad to talk with you and be a sounding board!

*peeks at the arcana challenge*

[mariagoner]

Oh yeah, next time I find you, I definitely need to tackle you about Knots.
Sometimes I honestly regret the fact that Knots-version Penelo somehow became so damn complex without even meaning to. And that I keep throwing her into these ridiculously complex situations as well. So... tackling shall happen soon, oh yes. ;)

And I would love it if you joined the Arcana challenge! It's very friendly and low-pressure and nothing has to be written till March. So perhaps you'll give it a try?

[kilraaj]

I've joined a few low-pressure claims and STILL messed up on them (although I finally learned with the last comm--finish the post BEFORE I make the claim, yay!). XD;;; I don't know, the problem for me is I get intimidated so easily. I know everyone will be nice about it, but I'm still worried I'm going to be awful. *is possibly neurotic*

Although both Vaan and Ashe are tempting.

I shall try to make myself available for tackling. XD

popping in to say i love the new icon. Kudos for even trying Fran. I gave up trying Larsa.

[mariagoner]

Crazy Eyes Solidor can be very damn difficult to write, oh yes. The dialogue alone, damn it! But Fran is killing me with the writing of her which, considering the subject matter, might actually be a good thing...

[digitaltart]

Okay, I joined the Arcana challenge. Blaming you. Ergo, I vote for #3.

[mariagoner]

I don't mind being blamed for anything like that at all. ;)

And Famarama Bananallama! I can't wait to see what you do to him when he's young.

I can't wait to see your Arcana challenge fic as well. ;)
