The Inkwell

I don't write about anything terribly personal in this journal and rarely f-lock, so if you want to friend me go right ahead. Just be sure to drop me a line in this post, otherwise I'm unlikely to friend you back for various reasons.

NOTE: If you're looking for my fanfiction, you won't find it here. My old fic is still archived on prolific_geeks while my new fic can be found at Archive Of Our Own.

I'm all on tumblr these days cephiedvariable@tumblr

Wow! Sorry for not putting this up earlier!

I've been meaning to do some promo on this for a while. Homestuck fans on my flist:

If you have not yet checked out the Homestuck Shipping Olympics, now is your chance! Teams are filling up fast, but it's never to late to start one yourself or sign on for Team Alchemieter and rock the Rare Pair fandango.

As friendly neighbourhood Palhoncho of Team Dave♥Terezi d4nc3_p4rty, I'll see you at the games???

Come on, guys, you know you want to waste the last precious days of your summer vacation participating in this. <3

Okay so I've been trying to ignore this DC Reboot bullshit, but I admit it: I'm mad. I'm seething. I curr. I mean, god knows DC continuity's been utterly deconstructed over the past few years (since durr hurr Identity Crisis) almost past the point of salvaging because they keep digging themselves deeper and deeper but... you know what else was a terrible time in DC comics? Fucking early 90's extreme era and what did we get immediately coming off of that? One of the most infinitely readable periods in DC history. I guess bluh bluh you could argue that Zero Hour was a reboot, but having read a good deal of that era's comics it's always struck me that Zero Hour's reboots were for the most part irrelevant (excepting the Legion) and most of the repaired continuity was achieved through picking and choosing and ignoring the stuff that worked and the stuff that didn't.

There's apparently been a lot of assurances that the main thread of the DCU will remain untouched, but to be honest most DC diehards care more about the Z-listers than Superman, something that DiDio and the big guns at DC over the past few years consistently seem to just not get.

Also making Babs Batgirl again is the dumbest shit ever

ugh

/DEEP AND REAL FEELINGS ABOUT COMIC BOOKS B[



SORRY I AM MAKING SO MANY DUMB

FANDOM POSTS

i haven't been the greatest irl lately and don't really

want to whine about it

Most recent panels of Homestuck: even better with this track playing on repeat in the background.





... hi I've been unconcious for two days. What's up with you guys?

DENIAL: No, Andrew Hussie, I am not going to click on the link for the next panel. You can't make me. It never happened.

ANGER: Fuck this comic just fuck it this comic it can go fuck itself on a rusty trainpike

BARGAINING: I didn't actually mean that. And and you know there's still lots of unresolved plot threads and you know things that might mean this isn't as it seems and maybe it's a doomed timeline. Come on, it's not that bad.

DEPRESSION: urban_anchorite stop dragging me into this discussion analyzing the blood splatters. just s-stop. sob sob

RESIGNATION: ........................ oh hey, ha ha, what's going on in the top panel there is pretty funny. Oh Spades Slick, you're such a rascal. ha ha ha


HOMESTUCK: KIDS AND FUN KIDS AND FUN KIDS AND FUN KIDS AND FUN KIDS AND FUN KIDS AND FUN KIDS AND FUN KIDS AND FUN KIDS AND FUN KIDS AND FUN KIDS AND FUN KIDS AND FUN KIDS AND FUN KIDS AND FUN KIDS AND FUN

RL: I am on social assistance for disability finally which means that I am going to get my fucking health fixed up. And also write like a motherfucker. And uh, actually, probably do some volunteer work.

My dearest roommate is moving out next month to go to grad school and I am elated for her as much as I am morose at the thought of her absence. o dear ect. Luckily my good friend from High School, Caily, is moving in.

It's been raining for 40 days straight here and I am so glad. I am not ready for summer. I need time to emotionally prepare.

Internet: This is the dumbest meme ever but I want to do it, have at it

Comment with any ship (romantic or platonic or maybe even non-existent!) from a fandom that you know I have some knowledge about, and I will rant about aforementioned ship. This may be incoherent gushing or exclamations of disgust, depending on your ship of choice.

WHY THE FUCK ARE THE BEES SO BIG THIS YEAR

THERE IS A BEE IN MY LIVING ROOM AND IT IS SO BIG

I HAVE TO TAKE A MOTHERFUCKING PICTURE OF THIS BEE AND FRAME IT FOR PROSTERITY THIS SHIT IS OFF THE HOOK

PLEASE GIANT MONSTER BEE GO BACK OUTSIDE AND LEAVE ME IN PEACE I DON'T CARE THAT YOUR FATHER WAS A JUNEBUG AND HE DIDN'T LOVE YOU NONE

>Stay up late having a motherfucking religious experience to this new band you found

>Discover that this band's concept album storyline is... a dark, dystopian retelling of... the first six Megaman games?

>Mixed Feelings


Also Lady Gaga's new album is awesome and I love it but it's kind of like... giving me Shiny Toy Guns/Scissor Sisters/the early 90's thrown in a vat and folded together in unholy unity vibes.

What I'm saying is that a lot of these songs do not sound like radio play songs. It's like a whole album of Teeth and Dance in the Dark.

So I'm stealing this shamelessly off urban_anchorite, but hey:

Give me one of my own stories, and a timestamp sometime in the future after the end of the story, or sometime in the past before the story started, and I'll write you at least a hundred words of what happened then, whether it's five minutes before the story started or ten years in the future.

You'll probably get the best response if you ping me on one of my Homestuck fanfics, however if you'd like to request a before/after snippet for one of my older fics, feel free!
