EDIT: Point 6?!
My hair smells like peanut butter.
What the hell.

Point 1!
I have the bestest roommate that ever roommate'd (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
miss_arel). Yes, even better than yours. Because when I wibbled and couldn't narrow down what I wanted for my birthday to a single choice, she drew me BOTH.
Odin Sphere (Mercedes and Ingway)
and
Dresden Files/Supernatural (bitty Winchesters + so-not-bitty dog)
:D :D :D See how awesome she is?
Point 2!
I am still doing that meme. You remember, from like last month? (Which granted, was only a week ago.) I WILL DO IT THIS WEEKEND. Y'know, once I've got more written on my NaNo. :|b
Point 3!
Am I the only one who notices this weird -- trend, sort of? -- between those who write fic primarily in western TV fandoms versus those who write fic primarily for game/anime/manga fandoms? I'm not talking in terms of nebulous quality; I've seen it argued quite passionately that western fandoms have overall higher quality, something to do with an older group of writers, but I've seen both fantastic and really drektastically awful fic for both sets, and I'm not convinced this is correct.
HOWEVER, there is definitely this weird ... disconnect? I think? It feels like in a blind writing sample, you could point at person A and say, this person is mostly for western fandoms, and B is definitely a game/animanga person. I'd almost classify it as "grittiness" versus "smoothness," though that's not even it, either. It just really feels that way to me, for whatever peculiar reason.
(I was, obviously, never an English student. Maybe if I was, I'd be able to quantify this impression, or at least explain myself better. This is what you get instead!)
... bah.
Point 4!
No, seriously, guys, why isn't there more fic with Allen's childhood among the traveling performers? That'd be sort of awesome. D:
Point 5 (the end)!
I got another smiley face drawn on my Starbucks cup. :) I wonder if I should feel embarrassed that they know my order pretty much by heart, but the smiley face sort of makes me ridiculously pleased. :)
