All art is at once surface and symbol

Title Tag Game Rules: write out any fic titles you have that are based off of lyrics, list what songs they're from, and tag some writers.

Some of these link to smutfic, so I'll put NSFW tags accordingly.

In reverse chronological order:

( We're rolling all the way back to 2004, damn )

Have you ever wanted a Fix-It Fic of LISA where Brad and Terry got together in the end? Did you find Joyful lacking and wish it had been developed better? Ever wondered what would happen if Terry joined Buddy and Rando in Joyful? Boy oh boy, do I have the series for you~

Joyless Rehabilitation

Part 2 (which is the Joyful rewrite) is A Bliss of Another Kind, the first chapter which I posted last night! :D

I know I've been bad about updating peachiescloset but oof, I forgot what a bitch it is to post fic to Dreamwidth. Especially when it comes to HTML, uggggggh. I'm almost done with a BradTerry fanmix though and I want to do a write-up for it, so please be patient while I get my shit together. :o I just submitted the first check-in for two fanfics for a zine I'm working for, so there's that too!

threesentenceficathon is live again! :D

RIP everybody for the inevitable flood of LISA fills and other weird fandoms.

God, the worst fucking dreams are where you know you're dreaming and you're doing everything in your fucking power to wake up, but nothing works. Your eyes are way too fucking heavy and you're still stuck in the dream even when the waking world is right in your grasp.

So now that I'm finally awake, let's distract ourselves from worldly horrors with writing memes. I've been much more active than I have in previous years, boy oh boy~ Not counting my Yuletide fic because that's gotta stay anon until reveals.

First, from javert:

Rules: go through your last 5 fics and share the first and last line. No context.

( Go figure, almost all of them are LISA fics. )

And this one's from rionaleonhart:

Number of fics written in 2023: Including chapter updates to longfic? Seven fics. Six if we exclude Yuletide. It's a whopping large number compared to recent years, since I've been in a massive writing slump. Recently it's like "Good god I have these ideas and I can't keep them to myself anymore," which is goddamn refreshing.

Fandoms: LISA: The Painful RPG, Deltarune, Undertale, and (REDACTED)

( Most of it is about gross grimy men living in a dystopia. )

Trapped behind the barrier and fearful of further human attacks, we retreated. Far, far into the earth we walked, until we reached the cavern's end. This was our new home, which we named... “HOME.” As great as our King is, he is pretty lousy with names.

…

Fearing the humans no longer, we moved out of our old city, HOME. We braved harsh cold, damp swampland, and searing heat... Until we reached what we now call our capital. “NEW HOME.” Again, our King is really bad at names...?

…

Inside NEW HOME is the largest academy of the Underground. But what really makes the school stand out is there's a private club that the Student Council members go to where they pull swords out of magic and duel each other. But for what purpose? That place is called...“DREEMURR ACADEMY.” As expected, our King is atrocious with names.


485 words today for Rosetale!

Yuletide Recs are going to come late this year. I got so many fics to read and so much I want to write and auuuuuugh. But for now, here's the gifts I got, which is the biggest turnout I recieved from Yuletide thus far! :3


( Puri loves each and every single one of you! ;; )

My fic will come later. I've got a Yuletide treat I want to finish for the New Year's Resolution collection. :)

Fandom Stuff to Do

- Finish MSTing Gabriel's Inferno and make revisions
- Write letter for Rare Pair Fest
- Brainstorm for Season of Kink (and remember to post your card since you've been keeping it for a while)
- Consider PMMM Non-Canon Ship Challenge as a way to improve art skills (and maybe a few ficlets too)

Gabriel's Inferno takes the highest priority atm. I'm almost done! :D

Zar started a screencap adventure of Mato's translation of Mother 1. I'm so happy! ;;

Taking three English courses in one semester is really, really, really draining. I had a great time at Realmscon earlier this month, and I uploaded photos and... haven't had the energy to post them, whoops. Anyway, cosplaying a Shaymin gajinka was a success! I bought a gajillion new goodies, like plushies, buttons, and even a couple art commissions. :D Panels overall weren't that impressive, but I really liked the Furry 101 one. Everyone was so kind! There was this Derp E. Wolf dude who was like this little mascot kid straight out of a cartoon. He'd so mild pranks like shifting chairs and he's always so enthusiastic about everything. There was also a shy cheetah fursuiter who purred when I hugged him. :D shh i'm learning to embrace my inner furry okay

Femslash EX just put their archive up. I'm praying like hell my fic isn't a total bomb. I got a nice gift though, where Sayaka and Kyouko are badass normals. :D

I'm not joining Yuletide this year, unfortunately. I've got way too many writing assignments on my plate. :( Good to see Clock Tower nominated though! Ib got a little more attention than last year, and there's a couple interesting Chrono Trigger requests. It doesn't surprise me that Five Nights at Freddy's will be the main horror attraction this year. :D There's even a SatAM request buried in the letters! It's too bad I don't remember enough of the series to do some serious worldbuilding fic for the requester though. Balls. The Thief and the Cobbler (Recobbled Cut) got nominated this year by someone, so I'm crossing my fingers someone's got a treatable request for me. <.<;;;

I've been playing Smash Bros. 3DS constantly. Villager is one of my new mains. ♥ Go figure, I made a ton of Mii Fighters, including several characters from my novel, Mami Tomoe (MaMii? *rimshot*) and Homura Akemi, and Utena Tenjou. :D

I've misread "Sycamore" as "Seymour," and now I have an image of Lysandre as a hairy man-eating plant, aka Audrey II. Whoops.

So life happened. But I don't want to talk about life. I want to talk about fandom.

An AC friend of mine, Alex, found a Mother 1/2/3 town through the Dream Suite where Wendell gave you Magicant tiles. Just what I've been looking for! It's insanely difficult to find Mother 1-based patterns, but now they're finally mine. *-* For those curious, the Dream Code is: 2200-0468-3784. Pretty pleasant place, and you can talk to Lucas, Claus and Kumatora too. :)

I've taken TONS of AC Photos (including shippy ones that I'll give its own post later), but I've still got to organize them and junk. The Shachipanda episode of Creepy Crossing is almost ready, I just gotta comment on the last few photos, type up my theories, and edit. God, that delay took me way longer than I had to. I've been putting off visiting more creepy towns because I've already got so much queued. ;; I'll have to put off showing a town called "Harudin" for a while, since it's based off North Korea and I'll have to do my research for that. tl;dr: I'VE TAKEN PHOTOS OF TONS OF HORROR TOWNS THAT STILL HAVE TO BE ORGANIZED.

I'm shocked that no one has made a Bubble Bobble-themed town yet. Absolutely shocked.

Fandom Fic Exchanges are happening this summer! Here's a couple that have caught my eye:

mm_rares (Rare m/m ships)
nightonficmountain (Rare/Small/Inactive fandoms)

I haven't decided the fandoms and pairings for the first one yet. Anyway, off to bed.
