Why won't you behave DeviantART? All I want to do is save my favorites. LET ME SEE MY FAVORITES DARN YOU.
Oh, and you randomly signed me out too. That's nice.
*simmers*
On a less frustrated note, let's do a meme!
Pick 15 of your ships and write down a quote for each of them. Have your flist guess the ships without using Google / IMDB.
1. "I got confused by uh... some old movie I saw the other night about a ninja girl whose ninja dad ordered her to kill her ninja boyfriend 'cause he was from a rival ninja clan." "Soooo, I'm your ninja boyfriend huh?" 2. "We're gonna be okay, you know." "Are we?" "We're alive on a beautiful island! We'll sleep under the stars and, before you know it, the helicopters will come and take us home." 3. "I would rather share one lifetime with you, then face all the ages of this world alone."Aragorn/Arwen (Lord of the Rings), guessed by frater_treinta 4. "We’ve been through so many things together and I’ve seen you grow up so much. You’re not that little goofy kid I found in the iceberg anymore."Aang/Katara (Avatar: The Last Airbender), guessed by frater_treinta 5. "So I'm not afraid to die protecting you... because I love you." 6. "It all turns on a dime. And the things that matter... you don't want to turn around and realize you've lost them... while you were waiting." 7. "You have saved me... you made me feel loved." 8. "You're still trying to protect me. Real or not real?" "Real. Because that's what you and I do. Protect each other." 9. "So does this mean you don't hate me anymore?" "I think it means... I actually kind of like you." 10. "You were my new dream." "And you were mine." 11. "Let's fly!" "But-" "As long as we're together, we'll be okay." 12. "The hardcore don't understand." "The hardcore do understand... but I can't watch my friend be killed." 13. "Fie, fie! Unknit that threatening unkind brow, And dart not scornful glances from those eyes, To wound thy lord, thy king, thy governor." 14. "He's too strong!" "You're strong! And I'm stubborn! Together!" 15. "All this time... you were my scabbard."
Urgh... rotten day today. Help me cheer myself up with a meme, dear watchers.
Give me a character and I'll tell you-
1. How I FEEEEEL about this character: 2. All the people I ship romantically with this character: 3. My non-romantic OTP for this character: 4. My unpopular opinion about this character: 5. One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon:
Visited Half-Price Books Wednesday and made a beeline for the comics section. They had a small little side shelf section for "Kids comics" and I immediately spotted an issue of The Batman Strikes that I didn't have and got really excited. Then got even more excited when I also found TWO BACK-ISSUES OF TEEN TITANS GO! THAT I DIDN'T HAVE HECK YES. I'm always happy to find issues of TTG since I have been dedicatedly trying to complete my collection. (With these two new additions, I have 23 left to go. Yay!)
Oh and I also found a vintage 80s Wolfman-Perez New Teen Titans issue. It begins the "Terror of Trigon" arc. Awesomesauce.
And I will need to bring the tissues because I am fairly the ending still gets me. I mean, I haven't seen The Return of the King in ages but given that up until now the ending has gotten me EVERY SINGLE FREAKING TIME AND TURNED ME INTO A BLUBBERING MESS EVEN HALFWAY ACROSS THE COUNTRY VIA YAHOO INSTANT MESSENGER CHAT... yeah I' d better be prepared for the waterworks.
And I will probably need to hold Ally's hand during the Shelob's lair sequence. Ughhh creepy giant spider that will forever haunt my nightmares WHY DO YOU EXIST?!
In other news, Ally has uploaded some YouTube videos of the new kitten that I can share with y'all. Haveagander.
We got a kitten yesterday, a ten-week-old calico shorthair that Ally's naming "Nenya". The kitten is currently hiding somewhere we can't find her and that's making Ally all worried and upset, but having read up and finding that this sort of thing is very common with new cats I'm trying to help her not to be anxious.
Sorry, the song is stuck in my head. And now you will have it stuck in yours. Mwah ha ha.
Ugh, I hate my computer today. All I wanted to do was a little writing and printing but nooooo, Compy's going to freeze up constantly and runs scans and updates that make everything slow down.
First off, The Lord of the Rings Extended Editon of Two Towers on the big screen: TOTALLY WORTH IT.
Not too many geeks in costume, though the handful that did looked fabulous, but a very enthusiastic and participatory/reactionary audience. There was applause and laughter and cheers and even one lulzy heckler who shouted, "Get over it!" at Eowyn during one of her mooning over Aragorn scenes. (Well, I thought it was lulzy at any rate, Ally protested that it was kind of mean.) And I had that wonderful feeling where it seems like I've been sitting in the movie theater forever but it's a good thing, instead of a bad thing. Like, even though I was sitting there a long time it was so much fun I didn't mind. Usually only get that sense from plays or concerts. The Lord of the Rings films are unique in that respect for me.
Gonna try to start doing commissions. Will have to research/inquire of other artists I know to get a baseline of comparison for pricing and things like that.
Finally gotten back to writing again. Coming along smoothly and should have new chapters for various stories up soon.
And I feel weirdly nostalgic and have been wanting to find and re-watch some of my old childhood shows. Plus some new ones I've never seen but need to.
