and I was so close to ditching too...

Aug 08, 2008 22:19

If any of you know me at all, you would know that I drop internet-related things like flies. Like my drabbleday. Which I should probably go back and reclaim, s-sob. Anyway, I was similarly very close to forgetting about the existence of this LJ... but no, brunettie  has to go and make me update. Sigh. Multiple cuts for length.

So yesterday, atomicduck, aka my sister, recently came back from Japan. )

It's kind of interesting how a lot of practiced writers are saying male POV for this kind of thing... xD I want to try my hand at a male POV, except. Well. I'm not male, so it could be a little hard. Then again, I probably think more like a guy than I do a girl. Um ( ... )

I don't think I know much about the specific differences between a guy's mindset and a girl's. Except guys are more prone to enjoying violence in our society, anyway. And then you have the gender roles that the guys approach the girls they like, and the girls are shy, but apparently it's the reverse in Japan. LOL.

We never did Macbeth, which kind of sucks since it's like FAMOUS NORLY. I hope we get to do it in tenth grade... but I'm switching schools, so I might end up doing A Midsummer Night's Dream all over again. Fail.

HEY MAN! brunettie August 10 2008, 22:20:34 UTC
I'm not going to comment on the entire thing or you'll start bleeding out of your eyes, but I'd just like to say you're probably not dedicated enough to write a novel. At least finish a relatively long short-story first. Some novels take as much as ten years to write, and I doubt you've been working on it since you were that little. Aaaand, no one's going to publish you if you haven't been published in several places, however small, such as magazines or newspapers ( ... )

...I have finished many relatively long one-shots before, you know. I'm halfway through one right now, in fact, and it's at 16K words. Plus, I've finished novel-length fanfics within a month before. (200 pages in 20 school days wtf.) Length I can handle for sure... and I doubt I'd work on a novel for ten years unless it were at least a thousand pages. Granted, I could probably write that in a year if I really wanted to ( ... )

...You actually make me want to watch The Devil's Diary. Though it sounds pretty ridiculous, the mention of Death Note perked my interest. 8D

You honestly remind me of Nomura, dear. Not knowing the main character while everything else is done. Sounds like Nomura indeed. I think he's having hair and gender issues with Mr. No-Socks, or is probably wondering whether to put socks on him or not. Or maybe he's having trouble deciding whether Mr. No-Socks should be a replica of himself or not. Or whether the pretty colour-changing eyes fit him or not. ...I'm getting off topic.

oright. RIGHT THAT MELLO FIC DAMMIT. I want to see. xDDD GOGOGOGO~ Or I shall haunt you about CSH. :3

And you make me want to read Twilight, just for the fun of it. :D ( ... )

It was a pretty crappy movie. If you're gonna watch it, you need somebody there familiar with Death Note to make snarky comments with you. Otherwise it'll just feel like a waste, I think ( ... )

Awww~ D: My sister doesn't know DN enough to laugh at it then. OTL guess I'm not watching the movie then. xD ( ... )

I thought his rumored name was Storm, so I still think of him as Storm, and I still think of Storm as a crappy name because I always think of X-men's storm. OTL (AND YET YOUR CRACK SHIP IS NOMURA/HIKKI LOL ( ... )

One True Pairing Ship:
Yoite/Miharu
Canon Ship:
...Yoite/Miharu still? :D
"If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship:
Raikou/Gau, which means I'll probably end up sporking myself by series-end. Again. orz
"I dabble a little" Ship:
I guess Thobari/Hana?
"It's like a car crash" Ship:
Thobari/Miharu, probably. Car crash because Thobari would end up passing out from nosebleeds at Miharu's moe. :D
"Tickles my fancy but not sold just yet" Ship:
Aizawa/Raimei. (Whoa, look, het.)
"Makes no canon sense but why the hell not" Ship:
Thobari/Yae (aka that businesswoman who looks into people's minds). Hey, look, het again!
"Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it" Ship:
I got nothing.
"When all is said and done" Ship:
YOITE/MIHARU STILL?? It's my overall OTP. Y-yay.

For some reason I feel like the only Nabari no Ou fan who considers het. But, really, I'm only really into Yoite/Miharu ship-wise for this fandom. lololol.

WIN. XD

...I like shipping Aizawa/Raimei too~ OTL The special thing about NnO is that I can ship het in it too. :/ MY GOGGLES ARE OFF FOR THIS! 8DD

REALLY?? Wow, I'm kind of surprised that you can do that kind of thing for NnO but not KHR, seeing as how NnO has strong implications of yaoi and KHR... doesn't. o_O

tl;dr, only here for the ship meme. FMA, by the way.

...DG is that you.

Hm, most of this is based off of the anime, although I did spoil myself a lot on the manga.

One True Pairing Ship:
Roy/Riza *u*
Canon Ship:
Hohenheim/Trisha
"If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship:
Well, it used to be Ed/Winry, but eventually I had to spork myself as you can figure...
"I dabble a little" Ship:
Scar/Lust
"It's like a car crash" Ship:
Roy/Winry. ...which is why I don't exactly ship it, huh.
"Tickles my fancy but not sold just yet" Ship:
Al/Martel
"Makes no canon sense but why the hell not" Ship:
....mm, I've got nothing.
"Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it" Ship:
Roy/Ed
"When all is said and done" Ship:
ED/ALCHEMY FTW?

...you had to spork yourself...?

And there's no Envy/palm treee ship for you?
