Any beef you have with my RPing can be served here. This applies to any character in any game. It doesn't just have to be beef, actually, since we all love praise. Right? Right.

All comments are screened, no IPs are tracked, and you may post anonymously if that's your preference.

Thanksgiving break yaaaaaay

In other news:

I'm going to go ahead and promote the 200th comic of Brawl in the Family because I thought it was freaking great. FREAKING GREAT

I'd add that that "btw it's a comic about video games" but honestly if there's really someone on my friends list who hasn't played at least half of the games being alluded to here then color me surprised.

Check it out!

Oh and there's music involved so like don't have your volume on super loud.

Yaaaaaaay

So I was doing homework for my poetry class. The assignment was to find a poem in the book that took an abstract concept and represented it with something concrete.

Took me like a second. I flipped open a random page and saw

soorow is my own yard
where the new grass
flames as it has flamed
blah blah blah blah

I wish I was as good at everything else in my poetry class, because I'm getting a B in it right now, and getting a B in poetry is kind of annoying.

Okay seriously.

First person to show me some fanart that would actually make a somewhat decent Tibarn icon wins a prize.

Rules:

-the expression should be IC
-the art can't suck

Go.

For those of you who don't know, I've been vacationing at Yellowstone National Park for the last week or so. There's a picture of a bear I want to upload sometime, but later. Catching up on a week's worth of internet stuff takes a bit of time.

Which means it's perfectly logical for me to post a meme.

01. What would your character die for?
02. What would they refuse to do under any circumstances?
03. What do they dream about?
04. What single object would they be most hard pressed to part with? Why?
05. What is their fondest memory?
06. What is their worst memory?
07. What or who was were their most significant influence?
08. What would be their biggest nightmare?
09. What makes them laugh?
10. Who is the most important person in their life?
11. Is your character a virgin? If not, who was their first?
12. Ask whatever question you want!

So I have to go to work tomorrow at 5:30 AM.

I think I was on crack when I signed up for this job.

Honestly this entry's main purpose is for you guys to feel better about your own jobs. Yeah. Honest.



Somebody kill me.

I think I may be in bit of a rut.

Well, maybe not a rut, but my interests have stagnated something awful. For the past while I've been RPing from just two fandoms, and my incentive to branch out is lacking. I had Big Plans in my mind to finish re-watching Higurashi and app someone, or finally finish that stupid ToA Jade app from a million years ago, or watch more than twelve episodes of Soul Eater and do something with that, or try dabbling with a Pokemon character, or re-watch Death Note, or etc. etc. etc. I've done bits of all of these over the past month or so.

So yeah I think I might have something akin to Fandom ADD. My most current plans involve me museboxing a few more folks--someone I might actually put in a game somewhere, not that RPing Jarod wasn't a pleasure--but everyone on deck is also from Fire Emblem 9/10, and there's only so long I can pitch those guys out. As for Geass, the only characters I care to play at the moment are Lelouch and Kallen, and I have those guys covered already.

So uh. Yeah I dunno.

I also had an "oh huh" moment earlier today when my brother mentioned that at college he frequently plays his friend's PS3, after I asked him how he'd actually played Resident Evil 5 when he mentioned it.

"Also I played this cool RPG called Disgaea."

"…Yeah, I've heard of that."

It was weird hearing "Disgaea" spoken out loud.

Comment to this entry and I'll pick three of your fandoms. You must then update your journal and answer the following questions:

01: What got you into this fandom in the first place?
02: Do you think you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
03: Favorite episodes/books/movies/etc.?
04: Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
05: Do you think that more people should get into this fandom?

I was given Fire Emblem, Geass and Higurashi by Hustino who will have died from Swine Flu by next Tuesday.

( Nesesito Cortar )

Yeah that's right. Two entries in record time. Actually expect a third because I'm going to need help deciding a new character or two to pick up at ME/Netherworld/Mayfield(?), especially once summer rolls around.

Meanwhile, here's a meme, because the last one worked so well. I've actually done this one before, but this one is longer with more questions that are vaguely repetitive.

NAME A FANDOM AND I'LL TELL YOU:

1. The first character I fell in love with:
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now:
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't:
4. The character I love that everyone else hates:
5. The character I would shag anytime:
6. The character I'd want to be like:
7. The character I'd slap:
8. A pairing that I love:
9. A pairing that I despise:
10. Favorite character:
11. What are my five favorite things about the fandom.
12. What are my five least favorite things about the fandom.
13. Who are my five favorite characters.
14. Who are my five least favorite characters.
15. What are my five favorite pairings.
16. What are my five least favorite pairings.
17. Which character are you most like.
18. What is my deep, dark fandom secret.

I'm fairly certain like 95% of you care nothing about sports but whatever.

At least my Jazz didn't get swept. At least Kobe had a shitty game. I can't ask for much more than.

Also, compound entry with a late meme that looked fun:

Ask any of the muses I roleplay a question and I'll reply in-character as them with an answer. Feel free to ask them ANYTHING, regardless of whether you know their canon or not. Feel free to also ask them as your own muse. They will respond accordingly.

Kyoni already posted this, so a good chunk of the people on my f-list have already been exposed to it, but whatever. If ProZD can spam me with retarded pictures of his video chat shenanigans, then I think you can handle this.

Again, this mostly applies to people who have played Fire Emblem, more specifically Radiant Dawn.

Anyway, the video.

This is timely, because I've been replaying Radiant Dawn lately. I don't even want to touch Hard Mode, though. I get pissed off enough as it is.

In other news, spring break ends today. Just two more months and I'll be done with my freshman year of college, so that's cool beans. I was vaguely proactive over break, doing some reading for my Lit class so I don't have to slog through all of Heart of Darkness in one sitting tomorrow. I also wrote a few anime reviews for this purpose so we'll see how that works out. The Jade app for Memento has still been collecting dust, but I'll get it done.

So there. I'd say that's plenty of information to constitute a proper entry.

You wacky kids and your memes.

► Pick up to 15 OTPs.
► Describe them in less than (or equal to) 15 words.
► Have your flist guess the OTP.
► ????
► PROFIT.

1. Not a piece on your chessboard. (Lelouch/Kallen; Code Geass) long_scarves

2. I lied, my bad. You > my knightly vows.

3. Hey, calm down--not your friend now, but your lover.

4. Stopping time still won't bring back the stars. (Hei/Amber; Darker than Black) long_scarves

5. Give me doll, save sister's sanity.

6. The desert king and his personal sword mistress. (Joshua/Marisa; FE8) thia_fayne by like 3 minutes

7. Hmph... I'm not this way to just anyone, you know...

8. Sloppy footwork and missed vital points.

9. You've had to wait a long time, but I finally fulfilled my contract.

10. You just keep having fun with my brother and don't pay me any
mind at all!

Man, an obscene number of these are from the same fandom. Yikes.

So, my birthday is in two days, but I've gotten most of what I'm going to get already in the mail. These things include money, a book, and Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon. I have a few mostly ridiculous beefs with new Fire Emblem, which are as such:

-Making 90% of the characters in the game have 0 Res is not a good tradeoff for having mages and priests with low-ass magic stats. It's fucking hard to heal your character when they get like 10 HP tops every time I use a stave. Honestly.

-I don't like the huge cast. I like character development.

-No one can fucking dodge anything in this game. Every attack is way too accurate, and I don't even see the point in leveling my stupid Myrmidon anymore. My Fighter just wrecks every sword unit it fights in the arena, and it's kind of sad.

So yeah.

Oh, and incidentally--ganked from everyone and their mothers:

Comment here and I will give a brief honest assessment of what I think of you, with no sugarcoating or holding back, bearing in mind that my opinions are only based on personal experiences exclusive to me so it's not worth taking for anything more than the value of only one person's opinion. Do not comment unless you are willing to possibly hear bad things as well.

You've seen it before. People get sick of their journals, then they toss them and make new ones. I'm afraid to say that I'm a little too hardcore for that. I don't really have any special attachment to the cyber_chaos username; I think it's kinda doopy and juvenile, actually, but that's not really the point.

The point is that I purged every single one of my previous journal entires. I was sick of them, and I wanted to turn this into an actual journal as opposed to something I infrequently post a few sentences of random shit into. Whether you've noticed or not, I've changed a number of things and have actually put a little time into it. Coming soon will be a post with all my RP info--this will include what's left of my Marioverse stuff, as well as my LJ games.

A few things:

One, I wouldn't mind talking to anyone into RP who I know/knew from LLF who's interested in the aforementioned LJ games. I almost got JJ into it that one time, but I failed. Regardless, I think you guys would enjoy it. I know you like to RP. I'm pretty sure you still do RP. It's a different kind of RP, but it's terribly fun.

Two, Ethan, I still feel a rather large disconnect between me and the ME people. It shouldn't matter, really, but I feel like I miss out on some opportunities because I'm not as familiar or friendly with most of the players as I should be. Thoughts?

…Actually, I don't have anything else. But it's 2 AM and I have work to do.
