HI NEW FRIENDS PART 2: lintwhite, missmorrichan, ocelotofdoom, and vycey hiiiiii :3

Haven't had too much to talk about lately. Finally caught up on my homework and my sleep; let's see how long that lasts. I've also become a proper /vp/oreon in the past week or so. Posting to 4chan is addictive, let me tell you. I know, I never would have thought I'd be a 4channer either, but /vp/ is different. A good percentage of the time they are actually nice! :o Also the picspams.

And now (speaking of picspams) A PICTURE MEME THAT I STOLE FROM t_funster! (see this is why having new friends is good) (also happy birthday t_funster :D)

Pick a character from a fandom. Use any variety of pictures of that character that are already on your hard drive to answer the criteria.

Character: Grell Sutcliff
( the grellest of sutcliffs )

Grell, you fine, fine woman. Stop being fictional already.

BY THE WAY if anyone else has any more Grell pics (and I know some of you do), feel free to picspam me in comments! As you can tell, I've already exhausted Zerochan's supply. ._.;;

Also, after drawing my Nuzlocke team for a /vp/ thread, I've been wanting to draw more Pokémon lately. So! This is where you guys can request Pokémon pictures from me. They will look like this or this; it's not high art, but it's free and relatively cute. Get your team, get your favorites, get whatever, get requesting! :D

(Also for Homestuck fans who do not follow whatpumpkin, I wrote a sonnet a few days ago. Maybe you would want to see it. :B)

Spent basically the entirety of the last two days watching every Pixar movie with most of my friends. It was huge amounts of fun. I'm going to miss those guys. :(

As is common when watching Pixar movies, I kept noticing things that I hadn't the first however many times around, but the standout this time was that A Bug's Life is an extended take on the fable of the ant and the grasshopper. I really don't know why it took me this long to think of that. It's still cool though. :B I also cried at Jessie's backstory scene for the first time. It's the song. Stupid song. *bawls*

Now, a meme.

Reply and I'll give you four fandoms. You then have to make an entry writing about your favorite character from each fandom, and why.

( Hetalia, Ookami-san, Kuroshitsuji, Lost )

Also, RIP Satoshi Kon.

You know, I was totally okay with being Ace Attorney monogamous. I had one crush in the series and I was fine with that. But that was before I started Investigations, by which I mean started watching over O.A.'s shoulder while she plays Investigations. And, well. Just. Stupid sexy Lance with his handcuffs and his dramatic wind. Craaap. :|
(It's okay, Jake. You're still the only cowboy detective for me. ♥)

Also. You know how the first time I saw fanart of Rip Van Winkle from Hellsing I thought she was a dude? A feminine dude with pointy teeth and glasses who maybe reminded me of someone? (Also, freckles. :D)
Well. So it turns out someone ships it. Yeah, I'm not going to link the picture because possibly NSFW, but there is definitely Rip/Grell fanart out there. And now I kinda ship it too maybe a little. Grell's soulmate will always be Szayel, though. :B

I suppose I should do some kind of year-end post. All the cool kids are doing it. Um, I liked 2009 a lot. It was probably one of my favorite years that happened to me. So let's hope 2010 will be even better! :D

( Fandom year-end meme )

I've had a lot of stuff to post and it was too much to post in one post so this post will only post part of it. And yes, I am trying to set a world record for the number of times saying "post" in one sentence. And the number of tags on this post.

First, a meme stolen from HG:

Make a list of 10 fandoms you are in/things you like and then have your friends list guess who you think is the most attractive/would date/sleep with/etc. Cross them off as they're guessed.

1. Bleach Szayel (hoyvinglavin64)
2. Kuroshitsuji Grell (alex_romao)
3. Lost
4. Hetalia
5. Nolanverse Batman
6. Sandman Dream (hoyvinglavin64)
7. Phoenix Wright Jake Marshall (alex_romao)
8. US presidents
9. Yu Yu Hakusho Kurama (hoyvinglavin64)
10. Star Wars Obi-Wan (Episode II) (hoyvinglavin64)

And, like HG's, most of these'll be super easy. ~*~so predictable~*~

( Cut for the rest. Anime Boston, Pokémon stuff. )

(which should be about one of you, heh)

Grell and Sebastian. Come on. There has to be something that can be done with this. Someone at least has to make an AMV.

And to those who haven't seen Kuroshitsuji, I really encourage you to. There's drama, horror, comedy, a handsome butler who kills people with kitchen implements, a comic relief cast with actual plot relevance, and, oh yes, tons of flaming gay. (O.A., you'll especially like it; the main character is about twelve, and the amount of implied shota involving him is pretty astronomical.) Heck, while I'm at it, I also encourage you to listen to Belle and Sebastian; their music is some of the best I've ever heard, especially on "If You're Feeling Sinister".

And now for something completely irrelevant: I totally always thought Frida Kahlo would be, well, ugly (I mean, wouldn't you with self-portraits like these?). But I looked her up and it turns out she was actually kind of pretty. Who'da thunk?
