[meme-shaped thing] Holiday Love Meme & Other Sundries

Holiday Love Meme. :3

Okay I can do this. Five things make a post.

+ New headvoice and A Gothic Winter Tale plot is making me happy. I'm realising just how two dimensional the character was in canon, and he's taking on new and fascinating dimensions with every passing day. (Many thanks to [livejournal.com profile] mercuriazs for giving up her OC Matt to that meat grinder.) He also makes me want to dig out all the Golden Dawn/Ceremonial Magic stuffs I have on my bookcase. I love making a pot of strong tea and wallowing in alchemical texts. It's sooooo esoteric.

+ I have done absolutely no xmas shopping. None whatsoever. I am xmas!Fail this year. I'm kinda freaking out about money, and having 1/3 less of a paycheck for all of December, and no one has mentioned to me whether I have a job passed 1/18, and yeah. Maybe I will buy you all a goat. Would you like that? Or a llama? Maybe I'll go wild and buy a water buffalo. That sounds awesome.

+ My skin is inexplicably clearing up. Peri-menopause, like puberty, in reverse. Might also explain the insomnia and the general sense of malaise. (I used to think malaise was a stronger version of mayonaise. Maybe made with mustard or something. /random)

+ I need both a new phone and a new laptop. Trackball on the Blackberry is dying a slow death. Video card on the laptop is as well. Did I mention I'm freaking out about spending any money right now? I would go insane without both phone and laptop. I mean, seriously, in-fucking-sane.

+ Soy chai lattes are one of the best things ever invented by human kind. Chai in general, but soy chai lattes specifically.

Also, I still owe people prompt fic. I have not forgotten.

I adore your new headvoice. Also I'm looking forward to more back and forth between him and Tiwa since I love really playing out and trying harder things with pups.

I never doubted that. Well, at the moment I just finished up an insane project so when I have slightly more brain perhaps we can toss some ideas back and forth.

Since he scares her and worries her but he also has a sort of dark Glamour which kind of fascinates her too.

Also the part of me that loves wondering how various magic interact wonder what he might experience if he drank from her.
ceitfianna: (adore you in frightening dangerous ways)

No, of course not. There are ways around that and we will find them.

Well, I've been thinking about his canon versus her world and I think honestly he does have a touch of Glamour to him or something, he's more so much more than the vampires in her world. So while the banality is there, he also has this other dimension because of who he is.

Does that make sense? I just spent two hours helping to parse an executive summary for a consulting thing so I'm not sure about my clarity.

Ooh yes, you're right.

Dark Glamour is a much better way to put it though part of the darkness and what bothers him about her is the fact that while he does have that incredible creative force, he is also someone who lives by destruction and pain.

I really need to rewatch his canon, I think I'll be getting it from Netflix this week.

There's also with her the fact that she's only had one experience with a real vampire and the rest of what she knows are stories and what she feels so she tries to slot him into her world where he doesn't fit. That's something else that terrifies her.

*nods*

Of course to both of them. Still will be worth it to watch the movie again since its pretty and fascinating.

I have really been enjoying the interaction between Vlad and Val. The latest turn was completely unexpected to me.

I feel I should apologize for the awkward grammar in that post though.

I was originally thinking of a wrist bite as it would be easiest to pass off as an accidental wound received whilst working on the car she's been restoring. I'm fine with what ever makes sense for the scene we have going however, so if a neck bit fits better, go for it.

What model Blackberry do you have? If you're inclined, you CAN clean the trackball out. It's just like a mouse, it gets gunky and then stops rolling. I've cleaned out my Curve twice.

No problem!

You can find the rings for cheap online too. I'm just going to order a new trackball assembly for mine and drop it in, because the ball itself is all grody and nasty looking. :P
