nike_ravusHello the fair few people who even visit this journal anymore. My life has been a crazy place of paper writing and moving and emotional meltdowns, so I've just been trying to stay afloat. I feel like there might be a, oh, 70% chance of me getting some fic posted next week, and if I say this aloud I'll feel obligated and might actually do it, O.o.
(I'm about 1/2 way through the next chapter of CotR, and, weirdly, I've been on a Sei/Youko kick lately - there's a reason for this. I was like, hey, you know what would be an awesome way to try and remember some japanese? Reading fanfic in japanese {with lots of help from Rikaichan}, and then I was like, hmm, why did I never post that random ramble about Youko hooking up with girls in college? And then, I recalled, because it's shit. So I was working on it. Lord, actually, going back and checking, I've realized that I'm about half way through three or four chapters of things, and jeez, I need to pick one and finish it already! Any suggestions?)
On another note, has anyone here been to Lisbon? (Or for that matter Austin?) What is one supposed to do in Lisbon? (Or Austin?) Good suggestions might help prevent another emotional meltdown! (Because I kind of hate traveling. if I can't get there on the train or in less than 6 hours on a bus, I don't want to go. If I can pretend to myself that it will be super fun, I won't melt down until I'm actually going to leave.)

Date: 2012-05-21 07:49 pm (UTC)Would also love COTR and more everything else, but very intrigued to see what you've done with (to?) Youko. Happy with the Sei/Youko pairing, but mostly because I think if Youko wants Sei, she should have her. Youko should have whatever/whomever she wants (I take my favoritism seriously). Sei's fun. When Sei grows up, she might be Youko worthy. ;)
With all your busy-ness, I'm guessing you have not kept up with watching Once Upon A Time. If you've given it up, I suggest you skip ahead and at least look at the season finale ("A Land Without Magic"). I thought it was delightful, and I think you will enjoy it. Lots of Emma & Regina. Lots of good moments - good facial expressions and sharp conversations.
Good to see you again.
