steady rollin'

This was only slight deadline fail.

A gift commissioned by accioslash for dementordelta, of a scene from Delta's fic The Place in the Dark.

Happy belated birthday, Delta! I hope you had a great day!

...and on-time birthday wishes to blue_soaring, even if her present will be equally late.

I missed a work deadline earlier this week on top of completely not understanding what it is the client was asking for. Got that sorted out the next day, but am still slightly irritated at myself. And I just clued in on that I missed a fannish deadline this week too. Gah. (The lovely mods just gave me an extension though, yay!) My sense of time has been completely fucked lately. I think it's a combination of adjusting to my new schedule coupled with this stupid cold that has decided to live almost entirely in my sinuses to the point where wearing featherlight glasses is painful. It's been a week and a half and it's going away, thankfully, but I'm still catching myself with moments of complete bzuh.

Going in to my second week of classes, I'm wondering just how much free time I'll have with the amount of homework I'm looking at. I was hoping to sail through my online English class, but the instructor is actually good at structuring the discussions and putting up interesting materials (if on infuriating subjects), so that's taking up more time than any online class I'd taken previously. I am equal parts boo and yay about this. All three of my on-campus classes are project intensive, although I'm very, very happy to be nailing down what I need to model early on and not floundering around like I was last semester.

Driving down to my mom's today and visiting folks, which is cutting out almost a full day of homework, but is necessary on a few levels. I'm hoping I'll be able to get the online stuff out of the way while I'm down there though, and this weekend I'm not on opening shift anymore so when I get home from work I shouldn't be quite as exhausted as usual.

- My classes are awesome this semester. All of them except english. I took the same exact class two years ago, only when my credit transferred in, it did so for the prereq. Thanks, AAU, for fucking over my transfer credits in as many ways as possible.

- I have a cold. Hopefully this won't be a repeat of the billion day cough of the cold I had last year.

- Did I mention my classes are awesome? I get to sculpt a maquette! And need to buy a few artbooks I've been wanting for ages but hadn't gotten around to. Yay for fun required texts.


Fun thing of note:

- There is a Watchmen Kink Meme running on Dreamwidth. Even if I haven't played on one of these for ages, I encourage prompts as I am /so/ wanting to doodle.

Guess what I saw today? :D And now that I've gotten this out of my system, I think hope I'm good. \o/

Inglourious Basterds. Donny&Aldo. R. Blood n' corpses.

death_bingo! How very appropriate for several of my fandoms. Yes.

Apocalypse square? Extra win.

Basic heat I can deal with for the most part, but this humidity thing has got to go.

And now here's the first of the not-drabbles that I took like a month ago. Aharhr. For stewardess who asked for a Tremor brother(s)/a Winchester brother(s). Weaponry.

Last Call
Smokin' Aces/Supernatural. Jeeves/Dean. R. 1900 words. Non-con of the unwanted groping variety.
A thousand successful hunts and more wounds than scars, and this is how it was going to end?

Just got back this morning from visiting with blue_soaring and attending the SPN con in Vancouver. I only cared about a single autograph, so the rest of the time I just got extras of Blue's stuff signed for her. I got all the actors aside from Jared and Jensen (who were too behind schedule) to draw stick figures. I think Alona's was my favourite, mostly because she very adorably went "you mean like a four year old's drawing?" and then the stick-gun she drew just ended up looking like a dildo. Misha's was rather hilariously awkward as he tried converting a letter. Alas, Blue's going to have to post those because this is the sole autograph I took home with me...

From here on, stick figure Bobby's gonna guard my Macbook Pro porn. I very briefly considered changing its name from War Machine to something else, except...it's silver and black and always has the best name in the listing whenever I'm on a public network.

All in all, it was an experience. I've never been to that sort of convention before. I will post my bad prom photo badass photo op once I scan it and eradicate that horrible cloudy backdrop in Photoshop, aharharhr. I encourage everyone to get Blue to post her photo ops too, since I talked her into getting air guitar and exorcisms. Fun.

Gotta say that the next time I spend 20 hours on a train I am going to be much better prepared for it, but J and I met some interesting folks. Boarding the train in Seattle for our return trip was like a life saver after a week of adequate coffee. Thank you, Zeitgeist. *_* The best cappuccino I had while in Vancouver, I watched the barista add milk to a pitcher that still had hot milk in it. I cringed.

Home again though and busy with all the things that piled up after a week's vacation. School starts for J this week and my online class begins tomorrow, but I at least have until next week before my on-campus classes start.

Still a little wtf about the Marvel thing. Still a little tired. Cons are hard work. Hi.

J and I went to see district 9 today. I'm a little torn. It was very good for the most part, but maybe I'll make a spoilery post about it later. For now...

ALL MY SQUEAL IS SHOWING BECAUSE THEY SHOWED THE TRAILER FOR LEGION.

Oh, Kevin Durand, please continue with the hotass. Unf.

( I don't even care if it's probably going to be a shit movie. )

If the internet doesn't supply me with Michael/Gabriel fic when this movie comes out, I'm going to have to lodge a formal complaint.

Celebrated finishing up my six day work week and that J can now eat solid food by going to Pyramid Alehouse for dinner. I got their seasonal IPA Grifter. It was awesome. So awesome it has taken me forever to weed out all my typos.

As soon as I sober up, I have a last minute design gig to revise. Oi.

For once, I'm not the one with the backlog of stuff to beta. Mwahaha. Also, omg this makes a bingo, I did it! :D

Pantomime
CSI:LV Season 7. Greg Sanders/Mike Keppler. R. 2400 words. Follows Candyass by Blue Soaring. For the striptease spot on my Kink Bingo card.
At this point, Mike could suggest just about anything and Greg's head would bounce like a bobble-doll.

Today was a ridiculously long day at work. It was just one thing after another with some new accounts and special orders needing attention. I didn't even get my deposit finished until a half hour before the bank closed. Squeaked that one in! I didn't finish everything, but got all the major stuff squared away. The amount of filing I have to do tomorrow though is epic, and I have an early morning dentist appointment.

On the fannish front: David Wenham rumoured for the Warcraft movie as Arthas? Yes please. *_* Gimme. I loves me some good boys gone bad.

So despite working desk and technically not needing to be in the office until 9-10, I was up extra early to take J to his ridiculously early appointment at the oral surgeon. He was training a new morning baker, so I ended up putting together a fruit platter for a morning catering. I was proud of myself, as I managed to make it look very pretty and kaleidoscopic. After that was all taken care of, I drove J in, and was able to arrange to pay half the bill now and half at the beginning of next month (whew!) and headed back to my concrete box.

He texted me when he was all done, and it went really fast. Tim was nice enough to pick him up and take him to the pharmacy. J's doing well and healing up from his crazy bone graft. The dental literature tells me that the bone can come from several sources, and if you choose not to use chunks of your own bone, it can come from a cadaver. Exciting! After his jaw heals in a few months he'll be getting a titanium implant. Step one towards turning J into a zombie robot is complete.

In other news, while I was trying not to go crazy working on a design gig, I decided to put my restless energy to good use and threw together some poster comps for blue_soaring's latest fics. I love poster design. They're my favourite gigs to do. :3 Typically I get ultra inspired by the typography on a lot of the promo posters for bands I like, and my typography geek is in fine form these days.

Blue posted em over on her journal, so you can see them in this post. Worksafe imagery, but some fic quotes used in the designs.

I want to do more! :3

Am working the desk for the next six days, which is a nice chunk of hours to help combat dental bills. The office is the same miserable concrete box that I remember and I stupidly wore pants instead of shorts or a skirt. To be fair, all my clean laundry was downstairs still in the laundry bag since I got home so late last night. Tomorrow, I shall not make that mistake.

My drabbles are...not drabbly. On the next set I'm going to have to wrangle myself at least under 500 words. Oops?

Trying to use this opportunity now to reply to emails and comments and such. Good luck, me.

Meme time! On the heels of having clearly forgotten how to write drabbles as everything so far just wants to be fic. I'm going to have to brutally retrain myself. :p

Pick your five favorite TV shows (in no particular order) and answer the following questions. Don't cheat!

1. Fringe
2. Battlestar Galactica*
3. Supernatural*
4. Flight of the Conchords
5. Dexter

* Note that if you want to chatter at me in the comments, keep in mind that I still haven't seen the last 4 episodes of BSG and the last 4 of SPN and I remain unspoiled. :3

( FotC is clearly the ringer... )

I'd asked the xmmv ficathon mods if they'd take non-lj'ers if they had someone to post for them, and my question fell into a black hole until tonight...when they were sending out assignments.

I would probably feel less stupidly sad about this if I'd paid attention to the fact I hadn't gotten a timely response. I could pinch hit if it were art, but I can't commit to that for fic. Gah. :( My wibbly lip is epic.

Maybe it's a sign that I should be working on my bottom!Draco commitment. Or replying to comments.

...OR TAKING DRABBLE REQUESTS!

Will write for any fandom, past or present. There are a lot. Will also write pretty much any pairing (Roy/Ed and Logan/Scott are probably the only exceptions). Hit me with the standard pairing and prompt, and I'll see what I can do.

I haven't drawn a catboy in forever.

Was doodling and playing with more cartoon styles (WS) and eventually reverted a bit more to my own style. I don't know what the market is for amputee catboys in skirts who like to eat mice, but here's one for ya'll. His name is Frankie. :3

Original. Frankie. PG-13. Amputee. Crossdressing.

I am all over the place today. I decided to skip the gym since I got up so late, and my restlessness is not helped by that I don't know whether or not I'm working tomorrow. Gah. Distraction, I crave it.

Seen in a few places, but nicked ultimately from cypher "Post a single sentence from each WIP you have (or as many as you want to pick). No context, no explanations. No more than one sentence!"

( Only I did art, because I didn't have 10 wip fics I expect to finish. )

p.s. Also my Snarry Games piece was posted! Snape/Harry, R, A Fair and Firm Hand. [NSFW]

p.p.s. Evil twin wrote Victor/Remy dubcon. Unf.

I do it out of love. Honestly, I do. Consider the thumbnail the ONLY part of the image that isn't completely um...filthy. Fluffy shippy art next time.

Watchmen. Rorschach. NC-17. Very NSFW. Non-con. Bukkake. Uh, some human toilet in there as well.
