All art is at once surface and symbol

Happy 10th Anniversary, Yume Nikki. You've changed my life forever and made me the Indie Horror nerd I am today. You've changed the gaming world forever and influenced new masterpieces such as Ib and Dreaming Mary. I will always and forever be in your debt.

Annnnnnnnnnnnnnd while typing this, my computer freaked out and randomly reset while screaming at me like Uboa. How fitting.

Darnit, Karkat evolved into Neutral/Running. Ah well. I might as well make him a Sonic Chao. :3

Me: *buys a Shiny White egg with the intention of naming the newborn Rarity*
Shiny White Chao: *hatches with a crazy mad grin on its face*
Me: ... *names it Uboa instead*

Now the question remains... how shall I evolve this evil abomination?

I know the Five Acts Meme won't be active again until October, but I wanted to fill this out anyway. Something to do in advance while I wait, and I can always come and edit this later. Oh boy oh boy oh boy~

Hey rocket_lambda! Remember that fanfic I said I finished for you? That fic turned out to be more emotionally draining than I thought, so it took me forever to finally get a hold of myself and revise it. Sorry it took so long! ;; But it's ready and it's polished, and I hope you like it~ ♥

Homeward - Madotsuki & Masada, PG-13. (TISSUE BOX WARNING)

Two Madotsuki/Masada fics kinda came out of this, nom. This one and urm... what I call a "catharsis" ficlet. Let's say it freaked me out and that's saying a lot.

Holy snap. I can't remember the last time I ever cried writing a fanfic except when I wrote one-on-one RP with Jean (Jeff/Tony) and Carrie (Sonic/Shadow).

Madotsuki & Masada. How did you get from being adorable to breaking my heart like that? Tears were flowing and the knife wasn't out yet. wtf.

Congratulations. I hope my pain delights you.

It hurts so gooooooooooood! XD

YOU'LL RECEIVE MY STAB OF REVISIONING REVENGE.

I downloaded a Masada shimeji~

He's so cute~ ♥ He's crawling all over the edges of my monitor and I catch him when he falls~

Smile for me, Masada! I love you! ;; I think he did once so far though, flashing a little heart at me. Awww~!

Thanks for your recs on the Harvest Moon games last post! There's been family drama and that's why I haven't been posting lately, but thankfully, it's all cleared up now. Delcat had this song on her Yume Nikki FST for Poniko/Uboa. Looking at the lyrics again, it makes me think of Movie!Darkrai too. :o And Destroyshipping, in a way.



Yay I can share mp3s again! XD

So I've been sick and reading Shirley Jackson. After reading "Flower Garden" I got so angry I hurled the book at the wall, which I haven't done in years. Mom says not to throw books at the walls because ours is weak and falling apart, but eh, I threw the book on the floor too, and even then it felt merciful. It's like I hadn't thrown it at either hard enough and the floor in my room is carpet. Nonetheless, the cover got a few dents on it and that's good enough. Don't want to damage it too much, after all. I'm at a loss here. So far I'm halfway through and while some stories like "The Intoxicated" are interesting, others like "The Renegade" made me scowl in a not-good way. Goddamn it, just build a fence around the dog! I've never seen two kids so excited about killing off their own dog, for chrissake those little brats. I predicted "Charlie"s ending a mile away and I feel like I've wasted my time (I prefer Bebe's chapter about her brother Ray in Wayside School is Falling Down. :P) As for why the hell "Flower Garden" made me so angry, let's say that I prefer "After You, My Dear Alphonse," another of Jackson's short stories that explores more or less the same themes.

I really hope Jackson redeems herself for me soon. I don't want to be wasting my time reading 25 something pages in tense uneasiness when it succumbs to exactly the stuff I was afraid of in the first place. And it's times like this that I hate being right. I swear if I go through Elizabeth and I end up being slapped in the face again, just... ugh. I'm going to lose faith here. I was expecting more creepy awesome like "The Lottery" and so far I'm starting to wish that it's the only thing from her that I've read.

It's stuff like this that's part of the reason I write my own books, so I can have something to read that doesn't piss me off in a bad way. There's a difference between being angered in a good/inspired way and being outraged for well... being betrayed.

Let's numb my brain with these little dumb "personalized books" for a while. God I think my cold is getting to my head.

Maybe I should go and finish Good Omens. Just uggggh.
