Pros:
- Got my Red-Ring'd Xbox 360 replaced for no charge today with a newer model
- Tried Saints Row 2 on doxinator's recommendation. Forgoing my first try at the aunt's place of an obese topless Asian man with a blonde afro, I have made a white chick with a black beehive hairdo in a cocktail dress. All the better to cap some asses with!
- Finished Fallout 3. That ending was shocking, but in another way, I couldn't see how anything else could have happened.
- Got Yukari accepted into discedo! Delicious canonmates, mmyes.
- Picked up some new clothes when Kim took me shopping the other day. +5 fashionable!
- Fucked your mom.

Cons:
- Fucking Xbox red ringed on me! D:
- uuuuugh all these journals to add what is the deal
- Had to drop Kumatora in order to keep myself free. To be honest, I just feel constrained having more than two characters in a game. Even if the AC is low, it's just a weight on my mind. She was done there, anyway.
- Generally just...really friggin' tired all the time, due to that real life drama. It's ebbing down now, but still. Ugh. So tired all the time.
- Fucked your mom.

FUCKING AWESOMES:
- FUSED MARA FOR THE FIRST TIME IN PERSONA 4
FELT SO VALIDATED GUYS
YOU HAVE NO IDEA
FUCKING MARA

Oh, Internet.

Feeling much better, too! Drive to write is back, RPing is going well, friends are back on track and I finally, finally finished Dragon Quest VIII after leaving it for about seven months. The urge to play the protag is...worrying. I'd really want a cast to play him off, though, and that's about as likely as a golden penguin.

Fallout 3 continues to amuse. Only in the Wasteland can ruthlessly murdering an entire town give you Good Karma, simply because they were slave-traders. Apparently there was an entire sub-quest where you go to a hidden orphanage and accept a quest to save the slave kids from the slaver town and THEN go there, but I had no idea of that. I just went in and killed them because SLAVE-TRADERS. B|

Anyway! Don't mind me, I just love the morality choices in that game. And the way the head explode. LET'S DO A MEME AND ALL MOVE ON.

Um. Right. Meme. I can find one of those. Surely the f-list has...wow, no they haven't. Weird. Alright, no prob. Uh...

OKAY. TELL ME WHAT SONG ~*REMINDS YOU OF ME*~. And why.

Links optional but highly encouraged!

OKAY SCRATCH THAT. Give me more questions for another TALKING AIMLESSLY MEME! Pyra has inspired me once again and I am so charming that I think I can make lightning strike twice, clearly.


Also: christ no I am not doing Nano. My motivation is far too sporadic to get one of those done, and bad writing happens when I force myself.

Holy shit, I created Apollo's account exactly one year ago. October 27th, 2008. Happy...anniversary? You've lasted longer than anyone else.

Though fff, I think I know why; I might have waxed lyrical about this to other people, but the boy really resonates with me like no-one else I've ever played. In a way, I look up to him. Despite all the bad things that have happened in his life, he goes forward with that passionate heart burning red and commits himself to what he does. He doesn't stand for lies and mistruths, and while I don't really want to be the stick in the mud he can be, I still admire his resolve. For a time, while I didn't find myself thinking 'what would Apollo do here?', I still ended up acting a bit like him. Same deal with Souji Seta, but for different reasons.

So yes. One year of being the Pollybug! Go me. Go him. ♥


EDIT:



...thanks, Internet. No, really.

So I introed my made-it-for-the-heck-of-it Yosuke, thatjunessound, over at smtdressingroom. Just because I felt like it.

...is it worrying that he comes really easily to me?

Friends cut! If you're reading this, I love you. ♥

Otherwise, it's been a really damn lazy week. I've played copious amounts of Fallout 3, actually managed to stay inside the whole day for the first time in about a fortnight, and just done a lot of uninteresting stuff. Though there's a costume/birthday party I'm going to Friday as zombie House, so that'll be cool. Not getting any writing done, save for tags, but mmrph. Can't really bring myself to care. My headaches have been a little too harsh to focus properly, anyway.

I'm finding myself kinda happy that theoregontrail died around the same time as I dropped Rude from paradisa, though; having that weight off my shoulders is pretty good. Frankly, it was just getting tiring, keeping activity check with all of those. I did think it'd mean I'd write a bit more with my energies redirected, but ahurhur, apparently not.

I do rather mourn not playing Apollo as much anymore...even though I've been ferrying him over to 8_dressing again to keep that delicious love/hate going with Franziska. I think my enthusiasm for Yukari might be waning a touch, though. She's lasted about as long as Apollo by now, and that's a long time to be writing one character. Maybe Yukiko's booting her out?

Nothing else comes to mind! Fallout 3 is eating my life.

IMPROMPTU MEME

Tell me about your day, f-list! What was the last cool thing to happen to you?


...also I feel vaugely dirty for shipping Bluenato/Rednato as hard as I do in Persona 3, but damned do I never want to stop.

I am so weak.

But at least this has caused me to realise that a lot of MGF's stuff is actually...very repetitive, lyrics-wise. It's still brilliant, of course, but they really will only have a couple dozen words in a song. If the guitars weren't so damn sexy - and yes that descriptor is entirely apt, this is fucking sexy music - I might be disillusioned. Damn you, Pinky Beecroft. Why did this band have to break up, bawwww

OH AND UH. ALSO. Anyone here actually played Dragon Quest 5? I have questions.

Oh look, a meme. Is anyone surprised?

✘ comment with a character of mine. (Any game, preferably the active ones, but it's all good)
✘ receive three bits of trivia about their sexuality:
practices, preferences, experiences, fantasies, kinks, etc.

Nothing more to say other than I should really stop playing GTA. And I finished the first season of Leverage! Must go download 2nd season hauuuuugh

Stolen from the delicious kubinashi who I have been told tops atoli.

( ANOTHER MEME. THIS ONE IS ABOUT RP. )

I should really put a meme tag on my entries, but that'd mean going back through all my entries and fixing them and yeahhhh, no.

I'll actually write something instead of playing P4 soon I swear

chie is still hot

fuck you shadow mitsuo

And now, we will briefly take a break from playing Persona 4 until our eyes bleed to bring you a meme!

The Character Expression Meme
Character: Yukari Takeba

( ICONS THUSLY )

Also: Shadow Teddie is a seriously creepy motherfucker.

So maybe it's just my recent replay of Bully talking, but I think Bullworth Academy and the surrounding town would make a great setting for an RP. Something like Discedo without all the DRAMA DRAMA ACID RAIN...so more like Fandom High. I dunno. People could be students, maybe special teachers, shopkeepers and townies, all that jazz. Just add the requisite Unbreakable Bubble Around Town and we're golden!

Tell me you wouldn't want, like, Miles Edgeworth and Neku having go-kart races, after all.

...there was something else, but I forgot. Ah well.

I'm bored as hell and have an exam in, like...three hours which I'm ready for, so in the meantime:

Space Bazaar!

Since really, LJ does so love fucking us over, I want to give my buddies somewhere to mess around with their roleplay. It's still getting the kinks hammered out right now - we have the lovely Charlie drawing us a map as I type - but I'd love it if you threw someone in there! Just a place for all my RP-buddies to go and derp around. 100 free icon spaces and so many of the best names are still free~

Annnd that's all. Yup, just a plug. Nothing to see here!

I'm toying with the idea of a Final Fantasy VII roleplay after chatting to some people in RPsecrets.

( This is a dump of my ideas so far. )

It's extremely rambly and disjointed, as are most of my ideas before I clean them up. I do apologise about that!

Ideas and opinions are, of course, greatly appreciated.

Okay, gotta do this before I forget. Then, SLEEP. Been staying up too late too often.
