Yubsie's Yammerings

Neil Gaiman used the word "slashiest".

That is like the greatest thing ever. :p

Specifically he called this "the slashiest cover of Good Omens I've seen to date."

It is pretty darn slashy. :p

This is why his fanbase is so crazy. He ENCOURAGES us. :p

QotD:

non_horation: All deities are slashy :p

(This of course calls for the slashy icon :p)

Completely and utterly. :p

Because... I couldn't resist. :p

A long time ago in a meme far, far away, non_horation challenged me to write Angstleech/Stella (Hayate/Sasame, for those of you who don't know our nicknames :p) that actually included the word "angstleech". It was slow going, because I've never written slash before, but it's finally finished. Hot boy on boy cuddling abounds! :p

I also discovered that FF.N eats / and -. Come ON! Hyphens are necessary for spelling some words here! Could we please have a FEW characters to work with here?

Anyway, I eventually fixed the summary to not be smushed.

Angstleech

I love lady_suzuran. I really do. :p

( Of slash and pronouns )

I did figure out why I'm having such a worse pronoun problem with this slash piece than in the flangst with FOUR male characters though. Unlike Sasame, Shin and Hajime can sit still for TWO LOUSY LINES. Sasame does things to Hayate every time he opens his mouth. Which sounds SO much dirtier than it is. PG rated, I swear!

I'm really excited about the writing workshop I'm going to on Saturday. It's by Deborah Hale and it's on fantasy writing. :D

So, shinshirayuki is officially eating my SOUL. Highlights of last night include an "Everybody squee over the CUTEness that is Shin" session and a discussion of Pretear slash. We decided Yayoi is in fact short for "Yay! Yaoi!" :p There was a fantastic Kei/Sasame thread. They're trying to be semi-platonic right now... really, they swear! Shin is the most adorable little thing ever. He interacts so cutely with Hajime in the camping trip thread. And Yayoi? Totally overblown love. :p

Kate, you should TOTALLY apply for Kaoru. :p

I was totally up until 4:45 last night talking to Tessie and Kate. Tessie, I could have just said "I'm going to bed" to, but Kate is so hard to catch online that I wanted to talk to her. Plus, I was having fun in the RP.

Yep, soul is eaten. :p That's why I checked the RP before breakfast and am now eating oatmeal at 2:30 in the afternoon. :p

I hate it when she's right. She always said not to go out in the sun without a hat. I went to the grocery store without a hat last night. For my trouble, I got a killer headache because I was walking into the sun most of the time. It was rather unfun. I went to bed at ten o'clock because I couldn't look at anything. Needless to say, I am wearing my red camp hat style thing today. :p

Ryan and I have been together for six months as of today. And it's all because I made him watch Pretear. :p

I got a d*mn Kei/Goh plotbunny the other day. I have no clue what I'm going to do with it once I hook them up, because I suck at romance, but there is set-up. Set-up is important, right? WHY do I keep getting romance plot bunnies? ANd why do they keep involving Kei? He's the HARDEST CHARACTER IN THE SERIES TO WRITE.

I named the compound we're trying to make in the lab "Murphy". Because the only thing it's sure to follow is Murphy's Law. :p
