Anybody up for playing/writing something tonight?

I AM DONE WITH FINALS!

So after the crazy of yesterday, I spent today lazing about and now I don't quite know what to do with myself! I need to do a little cleaning and that sort of thing. Then tomorrow's my Italian final, and after that I need to see about figuring out my answers for Tuesday's Medieval Europe final. And catch up on sleep.

RP-wise I think I'm pretty much caught up on things. I need to do something with Ava at BNW. Emmeline was submitted to 91 today, annnndddddd yes.

I think I'm starting to get sick and I really really don't want to get sick, but I suppose this is one of the better times to be getting sick. I also need to start thinking about packing and getting all of that kind of stuff done.


Anddddd yes. That is all I have for now.

I'm always wary about writing big long thank you posts because I ALWAYS ALWAYS forget people's names. Like...I'll write this big long thing thanking A, B, C, D, E, and F, but then remember after I've posted it that G and H were of equal importance and now likely feel slighted, and there's nothing more assholish than posting "EDIT!: THANK YOU G & H TOO!!!!" Because...seriously.

I posted a comment this morning. I don't think I was supposed to, but oh well. Last night, my computer seized up mid-Megan-flip out and my fiance was like "Well, we should take this opportunity to unf unf unf, since you're going away on Tuesday and not coming back for a month." And I will not lie, I fought to get my computer to stop spazzing until the last possible second, and even as we started unfing, my brain was saying "BUT MEGAN NEEDS TO TELL SUSAN WHAT ZACH SAIIIIIIIIIIIDDDDD." So I commented this morning.

( OMG this got so LONG )

I will miss this game, much more than I ever thought I could miss a game. I love you all.

...EDIT SEE I KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN: Sam and Meg are goddesses. The end.

SOS I NEED WORDPRESS HELP

I think everyone knows my laziness. I mean, I am really lazy, so lazy in fact that I have continued to put off my R tl;dr even though I have had a lot of time. Fail, me. It has just been really hard to put how much I just love this game into words. Even though GN was the first game that I have just loved and the first game I'm still sad for, I think R has all of that and more. Last night when we were closing up the game, I cried because it was so amazing and sweet and sentimental and yet, the Slytherins were up to no good again. That, that is what is so fantastic about R. We have all of these amazing characters who bring a mix of everything to the game and who all have a place in the game. All of the players are so fantastic and a thousand times better than me, but chat is always fun and probably the best times of my rp life! NOT LYING. And I'm trying to get to the good stuff mostly because 1) my hands are freezing and 2) this isn't very interesting. But! I want you all to know that I love you. Every one of you. SO MUCH. We better play together again.

First off, Beatrice Dunstan. I don't know what I can even say about Beatrice. She was my first character (even though I really had two characters) and she was ________. I'm not sure if I can fill in the blank. I love her as a player loves a character but I would be lying to myself if the love wasn't influenced by such amazing characters. edmee, the love of my life, who peer-pressured me to join R. I still remember the conversation where she was like "YOU SHOULD JOIN R" (I am paraphrasing because I don't remember specifics :}) and I was like "BUT... I AM INTIMIDATED. Even though I have stalked you guys forEVER." But we started plotting and she gave me so many ideas and I wrote Beatrice's personality that night. I suck at apps, but the family history she gave me was pretty much a godsend. And when I was accepted, I was still intimidated! But then her first post had such a variety of characters (mostly Slytherin but still) and chat made me feel really welcome that I felt more at place. I think when sherlock said "yay, another Slytherin girl for Theo to guide" (ps I am not that much of a creeper, Em. It's just something I remember :|), that may have been the first time I was like :} about R. Charis Burke, I think, defined Beatrice. She ISN'T a family person. Her narrative shows that. Her mother is crazy, her father is absent, her brother is weird, but Charis is her favorite. She grew up with her. She always got along best with her. She was her best friend. So obviously, when Charis died, Beatrice was more than a little shaken up about it. I don't think she's had the proper time to grieve. She hasn't cried about it. She has mostly just written Charis in private wards and busied herself with other things. When Charis died, I got a much better grasp of Beatrice. Like I said, she was defined by Charis. So, Livi, thank you for telling me to join and thank you for letting me be your cousin, by proxy a character.

But I can't forget wokandroll who is the very definition of amazing. Who doesn't sit there and just go "wow" at her logs or her characters? I KNOW I DO. But most of all her characters, Melinda was the one who changed Beatrice as well. Beatrice was a safe Slytherin -- she was ambitious but she wasn't loud, she was sneaky but she was really quiet about it. When Melinda started having all of this courage(!), Beatrice was, of course, rattled about it. Slytherins+courage??? PSH. But seriously, Melinda's arc helped put Beatrice's view into perspective, and I thank you so much for that, Mags. As for the other Slytherin girls, Pansy, Abigail, Millicent, Daphne, and Blythe, major props. No, more than major props. I don't think that Beatrice would be Beatrice without these interactions. She was really different around them than with Melinda or Charis, and it was really lovely to see that side. aliciadances, my TWIN pretty much, your Pansy will be my only Pansy forever and ever. I don't think I can put into words how PERFECT and true to CANON she was. Plus all of Lucy Hale's expressions fit Pansy Parkinson so much. megaria, the storyline you played with Millicent was something I always enjoyed seeing develop. The change Millicent made was spectacular. (I think I may run out of 'awesome' synonyms.) Beatrice really did care about Millicent and she really does respect her. And prefect, what can I say about you? IDK PROBABLY NOTHING. J/k j/k, you know I love you. A lot! And your characters, oh boy, they are so well developed and so intricate and so REALISTIC. You! I love you, Jen. Every time Blythe posted, I loved it. Every time Blythe and Beatrice reacted, it was A+. I think they are the different sort of the friends who don't go all out in their ~love~ for one another, but it is complex and Beatrice will always look out for Blythe. She cares so she will. I want to heap lavish praise about your characters, but I'd only be echoing everyone else -- but it doesn't make it any less true. You deserve all of this praise. All of it.

I also need to talk about Samalama, the wonderful kavalier, and Megmegmeg, the also as wonderful corporatecake, who, coincidentally, happen to be the mods! These two are part of the reason why I already miss R. Because of all of the plotting and work and organization that went into it. And because of Maxipad and Gustopher. I think whenever they interacted and whenever Beatrice interacted with them, it was always lolarious. Especially last night when Maximus was being a creeper and Gus was being sentimental -- you don't get that combination in a lot of a games and you don't get Sam and Meg playing those two particular characters in a lot of games. I feel like I could go on and on but I have school soon (WOE) and maybe I shall expand more when I am done with my weekend debate trip (DOUBLE WOE. DOUBLE.)

Also, as an ending note for Beatrice, her post last night? A+ I feel sorry for poor Hannah, but lmfao I love those Slytherins. They are such trolls.

Finally, Imran. Imran Imran Imran, whom I picked up because I love Jen. He was no where near as developed as Beatrice was and I can admit that because it's true. Sometimes it was really hard to play him, but as time passed, his interactions were nothing short of awesome. I think he was most comfortable to play when he was grieving. Which is a terrible thing to say, but it was true. He was a quiet, serious, solemn guy and grieving is something he felt most comfortable doing. lmfao why does this sound terrible? He was just accustomed to death, as any R character is. And when Cicely died and then Ruby and Andrew died, no wonder. mbmargarita, you lovely person, Wayne helped Imran so much, you don't even know. I know we joke about Wimran all the time, but I appreciate Wayne's input on his entries and that awkward awkward log we did. Wayne and Imran are eerily similar. You are fantastic and I love you. Also also Eustace's last entry, as you know, made me really really sad. I do miss Imran a lot, but I think the way he died (by Alicia's lovely Kitty Cartwright) was something that suited him? clearly I can't make things sound good. But he wasn't a good fighter and he wasn't going to just become good just like that. So when he died, I sort of... overexampled his faults and he had a failure of a way out but that was Imran for you. hobbit (I love you I love you I LOVE YOU), lost_bohemia, thank you for being in Imran's final log. Ashley, Sun Hee breaks my heart more than I can say. I'd also like to thank xanthophiliac and theblev for Justin and Corbina in Imran's first fight. Logging him was so much easier and I think it was great to log with you guys. On a side note, Anthony! I can't say I didn't love his tl;drness. And he and Hannah! I am glad she is going to hug him. Also. VICTORIA ANNE FROBISHER, please come back to the living. I don't think I can mention Imran without Jen's Ruby because I MISS HER. Imran misses her, even though he doesn't know that. Whatever, they are going to reunite on the cloud. And it will be awesome. For this ending note, let me thank rainbowling who approached me and asked me if Padma could be related to Imran. I think I do better with an established link into the game so of course, I jumped at the chance. I sucked at interacting more with Padma, but just to have him be related to her was so helpful.

For sherlock (Why are you so awesome? You know how much I love you!), alyakins (KISSES), splott (oh TOBIAS), tangled_hush (I loved Mandy and how she got along with Beatrice), plum (I miss Lisa and I miss Dedalus but Cho's un still makes me laugh), jabberwock (Fenrir was so delightfully creepy, A+), and for all of the others I don't have added/never interacted with :((((, don't think I don't love you. Because I do, very very much.

I think this may be my longest post yet.

Julie is officially the sexiest person in existence.

This is why.

edit: My shoulders are now killing me, but I got the timeline half up to date and I actually updated the character directory myself for the first time in forever.

I am feeling very productive, as I have been remarkably on top of my tags this week. ... not so much my starters, I owe Rae one, Nikki&Kati one, Kati one, Hezy two, Zo one and possibly Julie one.

It's on my list. It'll get done. (It feels remarkably good to say that, considering how often I make lists and don't bother checking off everything.)

Next thing to tackle: MH plotting. And Super Secret Things. :D

If you were The Most Interesting Man In the World (yes, I do mean that guy from the Dos Equis commercials), what kind of music would you listen to?

Yes, this is a serious question.

THIS IS UNCOMFORTABLE

This is something that I wrote while bored at work. Scenes from Billy Bishop's past and future. It was written on my phone (as most rp things are). There's going to be one coming for Adam. But it's more involved and much longer.

Okayyyyyy I know you guys have cute pictures/gifs/links so can I ask you guys to spam me with stuff to make me smile? Please? Anything you'd like!

Or I'd also be amused by dirty drabbles (anything from a sentence to however long you want?) between one of my characters and one of yours, since that seems to be going around, too, if any of you are up for something like that. ;)

akdfjlakf school is stressing me out. like literally my stomach hurts.


i accept well-wishes in the form of dirty drabbles between one of my characters and one of yours.

*feel free to post them here or in a locked entry if you don't feel comfortable

Classes are done, and I have two exams to take. Those shouldn't be too difficult; I am reminded, however, that I need to get a blue book for my Medieval Europe exam.

Today I pretty much just want to relax and write as I can. I have that strange urge to write something historical again- maybe I'll see about writing some original fiction or something. Or I'll just go find all those books on Scottish history I borrowed at the library last weekend and read them and see what I can come up with.


It is so weird to not have to do anything for school. I'm mostly caught up on rp- I'm pretty sure I'm caught up on all the tags I owe, so today I think I'll hang out, make some meatball subs at home, poke at my app for Emmeline (I wrote a history for her in British Empire yesterday), anddddd yes. I need a good, easy-going day.

ETA: okay not quite such a lazy day but oh well. Off to the store then to do chores around the house.

HAHA YEAH PWND~~~~~ oh ps duh didnt sleep

If I pick up another GG character, that's my PB. (But without the awful emo!hair.)

So, I FINALLY got Erik back to a place where I was actually doing shit with him and he, despite the shit with Kate, he was actually in a decent mood.

And then Connor struck, and now he is in a worse place than ever.

He's had such a rollercoaster year - while he's never stopped being a douchebag, he was getting better there for awhile. He had his crush on Violet and he was actually befriending random ELE people, and he was slowly warming to having a younger brother. He was actually heading towards being a semi-decent guy, up until the Ellie/Rob and Cole/Janelle stuff started to happen, and since then he's been a downward slope into being... idk, not the same asshole he was before, but I think right now he's heading towards the point where he's worse than what he was then.

Except now he's swearing off girls all together. Except as drinking partners. Sup Vera.

Sarah, I think we may need to rethink what happens in the Amy/Erik log.

"athletes and their dreams" is the gayest chapter title i have ever seen. easybib.com is SAVING MY ASS, though. fun fact: i cannot handle bibliographies. i can't, i just cannot do it. i constantly cite things incorrectly.

update: looking in my second book, it turns out that "ball play", in conjunction of the six billion tiny ancient penises on naked wrestling men i just saw in the illustrations, is actually the gayest chapter title i have ever read.

FINALLY I slept. It was the most glorious sleep I have ever slept...I got in last night at around 9:30, posted on Facebook that my presentation went well, and then crawled into bed and literally fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow...and it was one of those deep, wonderful sleeps that cause you to wake up feeling revived and refreshed. I feel much better now.

And now I can tl;dr about Redemption, like everyone else, because I'm actually awake enough to not be writing like "MEgaNnn"...

( Speaking of... )
