All art is at once surface and symbol

I hate that my family is poor, because I want a 3DS so badly. ;;

I still want the latest Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, and maybe Luigi's Mansion 2. Now I'm agonizing because Animal Crossing: New Leaf is out and everybody's playing it but me. :( More Pokemon X/Y news too. And the latest Smash Bros.

( Snippity snip for spoilers. Plus hopes and dreams for Smash Bros. recruits! )

Call me when Geno's a playable fighter, then we'll talk. Oh, and don't cheat by making him a sticker or something lame like that. >(

This Guy Has Been Using The Same Pokémon For Nearly A Decade

You know how you can transfer Pokemon as far back as 3rd Gen (R/S/E/FR/LG)? This guy has an Omastar that's been with him since the beginning of time.

He recognizes that while this Omastar isn't the best Pokemon—or even the best Omastar—it doesn't matter. It's his Omastar.

It's so beautiful. ;;

25 pages of kinkmeme and there is not a single mention of Darkrai.

So, I would like someone to help rectify this. I want to see Darkrai, in any pairing, Darkrai/Alice, Darkrai/Dawn, Darkrai/Cynthia, Darkrai/Ash, I don't care.

Just not Darkrai/Cresselia. That is my NOTP.

Smut is preferred, but not required.

I'd fill this if I wasn't mostly burnt out on Pokemon and consider my favorite Darkrai ships (Darkrai + Alicia, Darkrai + Shaymin) as purely platonic. I know the requester said smut wasn't required, but that one time I wrote Darkrai smut was fun. ;; Smut or not, I don't think I'd fill anytime soon, 'cause auuuuugh burnt out.

That said... I hope this person isn't who I think it is. I mean, this could anyone in the world who doesn't care about Darkrai/Cresselia, I just hope that it isn't... that person in particular. 'Cause this person exploded if I dared mention anything they didn't like, even by accident. Darkrai/Cresselia isn't even one of my favorite pairings, but this person hated it so much she blew it entirely out of proportion and made a mountain out of a molehill simply for saying I liked it okay, but hey, fine if she didn't. And she'd verbally put me down, accusing me of being the immature one and that I was being an idiot. And if she saw this post today, she'd probably say, "Wow, it's your own fault for not getting over being butthurt years ago. Who's making a big deal over nothing now?"

All I'd ask for is a goddamn apology.

Whee! I love alliteration. Anyway, I should've done this a few days ago, but I'm finally gonna list my plans for the Pokemon Rare Pair challenge!

( Mwoiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing~! )

Around six in the morning, I got past the Magma Pool guard and painted one of my Neopets "Magma." Yay! :D

God, the radar stuff at the hot springs with Ionia was awful. So why did I laugh?



Aww. I forgotten that I named my Favorite Thing that.

Zar's doing a screencap adventure of Mother 3, so I've picked up my file to keep ahead of the recaps. Last night I finished Chapter 4! Without spoiling anything, I want to hug Duster and be his friend. He needs all the love and support and pick-me-ups he can get. ;;

I find myself really disliking Wes(s) a lot more this time around. I dunno, probably after experiencing it with my Mom during her manic episodes, I feel a lot more sensitive and uncomfortable whenever there's verbal/emotional abuse. Not a "ZOMG IM BEING TRIGGERED" thing, I just find myself identifying with the victim a lot more in a "I feel you, man" way. Reading Misery by Stephen King got a whole lot scarier because Annie Wilkes did and said things that my mother had, and the way Mother Gothel in "Tangled" complinsults (???) Rapunzel always unsettled me and I never saw her as a good parent. We'll see if Wess redeems himself in later chapters, but until then, I'm :/ towards him.

Cori Falls would have a heart attack if she ever played Mother 3. She thought Team Rocket had it rough? Weeeeeeell... :P

Speaking of Cori, I finally got my boyfriend James (we'll call him Jimmy to avoid confusion with Team Rocket!Pod!James) to read her writing and rants! We skipped ahead to the DnD session of "A Fair Fight", which he identified as Edition 2. He said there weren't any inaccuracies he could spot with the game they were playing, and if it wasn't for the Ash-bashing, the ridiculously OOC Team Rocket and Gary, and the Mary-Sues, it would've been a heartwarming story about a group of friends playing DnD. The Pod!Rockets and the Sues bullying a 12-year-old reduced to a mentally retarded mindset aside, Jimmy pointed out that the DM Sue had deliberately screwed him over, rather than Ash digging his own grave like Cori insisted.

Jimmy: *in response to the DM Sue literally slapping Ash* Hitting your fellow players. That's totally acceptable DM behavior!

Jimmy's reactions are pretty great to watch. He pumped his fists going "Awesome! :DDD" when it looked like a particularly bad segment was about to begin, laughed his ass off at the Ash-bashing scenes because they reminded him of injokes and Chris-chan, wanted to shoot himself at the obvious Author Filibusters, and pulled up reaction videos to particular segments that made him cringe.

Jimmy: *reading "The Thrill of Defeat"* *facepalm* Oh god. Really?
Me: Which part?
Jimmy: "Velvety"? Ugh.
Me: Velvety what?
Jimmy: *points out "soft, velvety kisses"*
Me: Oh, that's common in romance novels. You have no idea...

Funny how this is one of the things that sets him off, but he takes the crazier shit in stride. :P

Reading Cori with Jimmy is making me want to write a parody Team Rocket fic with the most obvious and out-of-place Author Filibusters possible. You can totally tell Jessie, James and Meowth aren't interested in the same things as I am, especially when they're discussing their favorite Cinema Snob episodes! Oh, and throw in Mary-Sue friends with names like Kanaya Ashtear, Lucca Andonuts, and Homura Lovecraft. They could share their love of Tori Amos and Patrick Wolf. (Since Cori already beat me to Nine Inch Nails. :P)

It makes me wonder what would happen if Cori was in Homestuck fandom. Aside from her blatantly denying any slash in the series (despite it clearly stated to be CANON), I imagine she'd be an Eridan/Feferi shipper and woobify Eridan to the max, while also shipping Karkat/Terezi. Gamzee and Equius would creep her out, she wouldn't like Doc Scratch or Jack Noir, and she'd absolutely detest Vriska and bash her every chance she'd get. Then she'd ragequit the comic canon after Feferi's death, because she'd plug her ears screaming "NOOOOOOOOOOOOO ERIDAN WOULD NEVER DO THIS TO HER!!!!111!11" and then proceed to write AUs where this was all in Vriska's sick fantasies and that Eridan and Feferi are actually living Happily Ever After with a billion grub children.

Of course, if I tell Jimmy that I'm writing a fic where Jessie, James and Meowth are Homestuck geeks, he'll tell me to choke myself. XD Haha. :P

POKéMON HOLIDAY FANWORK EXCHANGE
Open to both FANART and FANFICTION! ♥ (@ PokéPrompts)

Just spreading the word, ladies and gentlemen. Nomnomnomnomnom.

Off to fulfill Halloween Tricks. Nomnomnomnomnom.

I set up the My Little Pony Princess Wedding Castle! Now all my ponies have a place to live and I got something nice to look at it in my room~ ♥

I spent some time with Jimmy this weekend! I learned that Casual Gamer held Pokemon every Saturday, so we came over. I was one of only two girls at the place. :o Despite my White skills being a bit rusty and I hadn't found all my needed items yet, I managed to whoop ass 2 times out of 3. I felt awesome. 8)

I've been playing "Pokemon Conquest" non-stop, nomnomnom. I've beaten the main plotline so I'm clearing the side-stories now. :3

While we're on the subject of Pokemon, here's something I whipped up:

I've struck gold three times now. In my game of "Heart Gold," I found and caught the following:

1. Shiny Hoot-Hoot
2. Shiny Raticate
3. Shiny Goldeen

The first from headbutts, the second at random, and the third from minding my own business EV training.

FUCK YEAH SHINY GOLDEEN

I just found a video that has every episode of The Itchy & Scratchy Show ever made. This has led me to do things one would only do if they had spare time... writing my own episode summaries. Some based off my fandoms.

( Old fashioned cat-and-mouse gore. Some episodes are titled, others aren't. )

Feel free to makes your own "Itchy & Scratchy" episodes in the comments. :P

Me: Caught up on Nostalgia Critic reviews.
Me: I'm interested in "Heavy Metal" now 'cause it looks Crazy Awesome.
Me: And the "Signs" review accurately shows everything that's wrong with Shyamalan.
James: Hah.
James: Misread that as Shaymin.
Me: Awwwwww!
Me: Shaymin is way cuter than pretentious directors~ <3333

Which makes me feel a little better after reading some horrific things in the con/weeaboo horror stories thread that he linked me. :(
