bard_linn	8:47p	Well, it's the middle of the month - should have an update, shouldn't I? I sent in my x2009 (@ lj) fic in a few hours ago. Those of you who like the fandom should check the comm out tomorrow if you aren't familiar with it - they're going to be posting (I believe) one fic a day until they run out. Last year some of them were fantastic. I'm hoping mine will be well received as it is the first time I've written for the fandom. *crosses fingers* I have been sucked back into the world of KHII. I swear, that game is permanently hardwired into my brain. I love, love, lovelovelove drive leveling. As in, you could give me your file, tell me don't advance the plot but go level my drives for an hour and I'd have a blast. Valor's at five, Wisdom's on four, Master's on four, and summons are on six, and I haven't gone to TWTNW yet - I'll probably max out wisdom and master before I got back to Twilight Town for Plot, and max out the summons by the time I get through TT. School has been schoolish. First marking period is OVER so I get a new batch of kids for my elective course. This means I will hopefully have a week or two of piece before they start acting like jerks. If not, I will make their lives MISERABLE. It can be a very easy class, or - well. *eeeeeeeeeeevil Hojo grin here* Speaking of Hojo, consider BE on official Hiatus. kiraya is currently working three jobs and going to grad school - she barely has time to sleep, much less do anything else. :( Even when we're getting together we're brining work. Next chapter to be out might be sometime over her winter break, but no promises. Numb3rs season 5 came in the mail this week! I'm really enjoying it, especially since I couldn't record it anymore (switching the digital, for some reason, caused the audio to no longer work when we recorded on the good old fashioned VCR). 10 PM on a Friday night is way too late for me after a week of school. And for random amusement, I link you to vikki's (@ lj) introduction to The Castiel Show. It's almost enough to get me to watch Supernatural again. Anyone ever seen a Numb3rs/SPN crossover? It seems natural to me, seeing as they're both shows with Brothers that Bust Bad Guys, especially with the patterns their Dad talked about in Season 1. (....which was all I watched, because the Brother Bickering ANNOYED THE CRAP OUT OF ME. Also, I didn't like the SCARE YOU OUT OF NOWHEREness and watched the end of the episodes first BECAUSE I AM LAME LIKE THAT.)

chibirisuchan	9:07p	Weight loss for geeks: 10 lbs in 6 weeks, woot! ( Cut for rambling. Believe it or not, this apparently actually works ) (8 Comments |Comment on this)
white_aster	7:01p	[origfic] Devil's Bargain - Gateverse - PG-13 For Brigit's Flame, November Week 2, prompt "key". This grew all out of proportion to itself, and I actually only posted about the first half on BF, because we're supposed to keep the wordcount relatively low. I really liked this one. :D I also, I think, have about three other stories of varying lengths in the bunnyhutch for these guys. Some of which might get written tonight, for Nanocount. >_> Warnings for...language, mostly. These guys are their scifi/fantasy equivalent of miners or oil rig workers. They swear! A lot! "The invention of the first transdimensional Gate was a grave disappointment to its creators. The dimensional milieux was vastly more complex than anticipated, and all the current theories of dimensional structure were woefully inadequate to describe--let alone allow humans to traverse safely--the transdimensional landscape. What lay beyond the Gates was named simply 'the Flux' for the incomprehensibly vast ebb and flow of information that even the most advanced computers--let alone the human brain--could not interpret. "However, the Flux was rich with a multidimensional particlewave that was eventually dubbed 'quine'. It did not take long for the budding field of dimensional physicists to devise a method of converting quine into the more familiar arcanos energy that had fueled everything from human life-patterns to utilitarian spellforms to galactic exploration. The systematic harvesting of quine through pinprick Gates situated on naturally-occurring dimensional nodes quickly boomed into a multi-trillion credit industry. "Nevertheless, this seemingly limitless energy came at a cost. Unpredictable Flux-surges through the Gates were common and occasionally overran all containment efforts within the harvesting facilities, leading to property destruction and loss of life through dimensional translocation. Additionally, the first harvesting teams learned another important lesson about the Flux: it was not unoccupied, and its denizens were as incomprehensible and dangerous as the Flux itself...." -- Barrowman Thane, Through the Gates: A Transdimensional History He ran, the jagged rocks of the passage pounding into his feet even through the thick soles of his boots. His pack was still on his back, bouncing a bit on his shoulders, but he couldn't take the time to shrug it off. He just kept going, his breath ragged in his lungs, his mind ticking away the seconds. 61... 62... 63.... ( Read more... )
white_aster	6:35p	[origfic] Smoke, Ash, and Bone - Potteryverse - PG-13ish? So, someone introduced me to the Brigit's Flame comm over on LJ. It's a pretty cool writing game/laid back origfic contest/weekly prompt comm, and I've been in it for the November run. So far I've got two stories up (under the journal reed_pen, because...I dunno, though it's not a really fandom-centered challenge, I wanted to do the clean-start thing). I'm gonna repost them here, because I think they're pretty good, even if they are of the "omg write write write DEADLINE OMG" lineage. This one was for the Week 1 prompt "china". I, of course, got caught up by the fact that "bone china"...uses actual bone ash. Warnings for this: there's description of ritual cannibalism of the dead, and other um INTERESTING ways of dealing with a dead body. I normally wouldn't worry about that, but one of my concrit editors for the week was evidently so disturbed that sie told me about five times in as many paragraphs how disturbing, gross, and creepy sie found it. (...there was this point in the story, kinda...about different cultures and how their rituals are different but equal...? :shrugs: ------------- The sward tower bells tolled a funeral peal the first day of Ateph's apprenticeship. Elen had paused in the process of mixing a new batch of clay, turning to look out the shop door, towards the tower. "Old Taipha," he said, at Ateph's questioning look. "She and her husband owned the bakery, years ago. She would give me broken cookies from the ovens when I was little." He turned back to kneading the clay under his hands smooth. "Peace, old mother."

white_aster	11:33p	Torchlight, or Oh Hell, This Was JUST What I Needed During Nano.... Did you like Diablo? Then there is $20 worth of love over here with your name on it. There's a free 2-hr demo, too, which gives a nice taste. Though I'm sure the game devs hate the comparison, this is really, honestly, a really nice Diablo clone. ( Moar here. ) I just finished playing that two hours rather than...working on Nano writing. >_> I'm...getting kind of burned out? This is way more writing than I've done in a long time. Also, someone remind me later to post up all the origfic stuff I'm pounding out for Brigit's Flame on LJ.... First week I was firmly in the middle of the voting pack, and I managed to squick out one of the people who was assigned to give concrit! ^_^;; ( tl;dr ) I am also...very behind on Nano. I had a lot of late nights this week that ate away at my writing time, and then...just a bit burned out. But, I don't have much of anything I plan to do this weekend, (and you will NOT spend the whole weekend playing Torchlight, self, WILL NOT) so I'm hoping to get a big whacking chunk of writing done. I have the words...I just wish that I could hook up my brain and download them without having to go through the typing step. ;P That said, I'm going to go transcribe what I DID manage to write today, then...head to bed. So I can be bright-eyed and bushy-tailed to go do lots of writing tomorrow! :D This entry was originally posted at http://white-aster.dreamwidth.org/549284.html. Please comment there using OpenID.
