So, I've run into a bit of a problem here.
See, I have about four or so storylines I can tell. All four of them can happen in...more or less whatever order I please, due to the fluid nature of the overarching story that's going on.
I have hence decided to give it to the readers.

I have changed some things that will happen in later chapters of LVH.

Er...so that you won't jump down my throat when things that I implied would happen don't.

At the behest of my boyfriend, I have started watching Supernatural. This is partly because it is awesome, partly because watching fanficrants rant about it and not understand a single damn word is annoying and partly because Fox likes talking about it, and it's always nice to be able to share things with loved ones, especially now that my middle brother and his girlfriend have watched it, and my eldest brother and his girlfriend are making their merry way through watching it, too.
Which is why I am now distressed at the thought that I might write a fic featuring the Winchester boys finding themselves in the Vampire Hunter world and mythos. And, of course, somehow ending up smexing it up with Linkara and his friends.
This is Not Good.

1) List 7 habits/quirks/facts about yourself.
2) Tag 7 People to do the same.
3) Don't tag the person who tagged you or say that you tag "whoever wants to" (of course, we all do still have free will so if this isn't your thing... feel free to ignore)
1. My boyfriend is the hottest man I have ever seen in my life. Any disagreements will be summararily ignored.
2. I like table top roleplaying. My favorite games are Prime Time Adventures, Unknown Armies and Bliss Stage, which I didn't know even existed until a week ago and am now gaining a reputation for my insane love of it.
3. Despite being into books, for a while I didn't read any and in fact dropped most of the ones I did read. Then I read Mercedes Lackeys 'Foundation', the first in the Collegium trilogy, and now I love reading all over again.
4. My first fandom was Neopets. No, really.
5. For ages, I thought 'Pokemon Master' was one of the best fanfics ever. Then I reread it and realized just how horrendously sexist and misogynistic it is. Alas for nostalgia.
6. I still cry watching 'Beauty and the Beast'.
7. I find full lips infinitely sexier than thin ones. This applies for both men and women.

Reply to this post, and I'll tell you one reason why I like you (doesn't matter how frequently or infrequently we talk/comment). Then repost this and spread the love.
Also, for people who read the Gigantic Rant Of Rantiness, you may like to know that there is very, very nearly almost sort of a happy ending.
The person I was irked about apologized.
Apologized. And didn't blame other people.
As far as I can discern, this is a first.
So, the friendship isn't ruined, I now know how to deal with said friend more effectively, and, aside from a horrendous headache, today has been more or less okay.
YAY!

Leave me a comment saying "Meme is the word".
• I'll respond by asking you five questions so I can satisfy my curiosity
• Update your journal with the answers to the questions
• Include this explanation in the post and offer to ask other people questions
timid's questions for me:
1. Out of all the stories you're working on, which is your favorite?
...Good question. Probably Linkara: Vampire Hunter, actually, since that is not only going to be quite possibly the longest story I've ever written (and is going to be made into a comic), but because all the different storylines planned for it mean that I get to stretch my writing style and try to deal with the different aspects. For instance, there's going to be a romance in later storylines, Nostalgia Chick's deal will be built on, I'm going to further develop the mythos of the story and the ending is going to be awesome.
2. If you were trapped in an elevator for 24 hours with an TGWTG celeb, who would you pick?
Tricky question. To be honest, probably Spoony/Noah, since a lot of our interests collide and I'd like to know his thoughts on indie tabletops. Second choice would probably be Linkara/Lewis, since he'd probably be able to put up with me without throttling me if I got too annoying. That, and he's awesome.
3. What is your favorite tea?
Jasmine, shortly followed by this awesome blend I bought - a herbal tisane with chamomile, apple and cinnamon. It smells like muffins!
4. If you could kiss any of the Treehouse gals, who would you pick?
...You mean I have to pick just one?! You cruel, cruel woman, you. I mean, I seriously think you are all wonderful, wonderful women, and, having seen photos of both, Em and Fuzzy are both absolutely gorgeous, but you want me to pick one!?
Fine. I'd probably go with...oh, hell. Let's be vaguely narcisstic and go with Aunt Zelda.
5. Do you know how I ended up being the keeper of the Son of Insano?
Well, see, what happened was that Insano got really distracted, and so Son felt very lonely. Now, both Freya and her Foxy Boy were out trying to get supplies, Suede and Bubo were trying to organize things (and find Bubo's pen), Zelda was having a huge argument with Freya over the radio, and Em was in the shower, so Timid took pity on the cute, pink ball of love, and basically became his babysitter anytime Insano was too busy to pay attention to anyone. That, and she was the only one beside Freya who could put up with such a horrendously bright shade of pink.
So. Challenge me to ask questions! I fear you not!

My wrist is mostly back to normal!
I'm still being a bit careful with it, and if it starts hurting and I take a break, but mostly it's fine!
Wohoo!
Also, the meme I sort-of ganked off of the effervescent keevacaereni!
The Rules:
* Reply to this meme by yelling "Words!".
* I will then give you five words that remind me of you.
* Then post them in your LJ and explain what they mean to you.
AU: I don't know where I got my fondness for AU. I suspect I developed it when I wrote my modern-day Midsummer Night's Dream fic. Regardless, I like putting characters in stressful situations, and the easiest stressful situations are the ones I find in AU fics.
Linkara: I used to adore Linkara utterly. I guess I still do, but recently he's been coming off as very arrogant, a fact that is somewhat souring my opinion of him. I suppose that's good, as it gives me a reason to toy with some relationships in Vampire Hunter, but while I do adore him, he is beginning to irk me.
Cats: I love cats! I've had cats around me my whole life, starting with our dark tabby Tiger, who had a curled over leg from falling out of a tree when he was young, and Pywacket, a black cat who was stung on the nose by a bee when he was young, and so was terrified of everything. When I was three, we got a third cat, Juno, a beautiful toirtoseshell, who prompty got pregnant many, many times, and to our suprise Tiger, who was the sweetest cat you could ever hope to know, hated the kittens, but Pywacket quite liked them. Years passed. Tiger died of feline AIDS. Pywacket ran away. We kept one of Juno's babies, a white and tabby cat called Lucy, and then we kept one of her kittens, a tiny girl called Figaro, and then her son, a gray tabby called Tish. They're all slightly mad now, but I still love them, and dread the day when Juno will finally leave. She's seventeen after all, and that is old for a cat...
TGWTG: I came across the Nostalgia Critic and, by extension TGWTG.com, when a fanficrants post involved his rant about Titanic: The Animated Musical which, to this day, is my favorite of his reviews. At first, I had a huge crush on Doug, which moved to Spoony, which moved and settled on Linkara. My celebrity crushes are whimsical and easily distracted. I don't know why I like writing about the TGWTG cast so much. It's not as if their 'characters' are fleshed out. But, for some reason, that's the charm of them. Like indie games, filling in the blanks is so much fun, I can't help but enjoy developing characters from the dots left to us.
AWESOME: I think lots of things in the world are awesome, but I'm still not entirely comfortable applying that word to myself. I apply it to my achievements - over the weekend, I attended a role-playing convention, and two characters I played I was so proud of that, as I declared 'It was AWESOME! I did so well!' I still don't really think of myself as awesome. Talented, but not awesome, and talent really, in the end, means nothing. All art of all varieties - in fact, all of anything - is 99% practice and 1% talent. If that. So to call myself talented is not so much a compliment as a fact. Calling myself good or, in this case, awesome? Still not sure I'm there. I'm not saying I can't get there. I'm just saying I'm not quite there yet, which is part of the reason why I try to do fics that are utterly different from one another. Practice to get awesome.
Um. That got far too introspective.
