elementalhero: NO PANTS (ξgx | shall we take this duel elsewhere)
God, if I could just pick up everyone on my flist and drop them into GX fandom, I'd do it in a heartbeat. This show, I swear to god, is just so much fun to be a fan of. It's not even that the plot is stellar (which it isn't), or that the characters are amazing (which THEY ARE); it's just that talking about the wacky plot and the fantastic characters is just. It's just so much fun.

Like, I spent about two hours last night rescreening a couple of episodes from my favorite part of season three, and just raving with one of my plurk/RP/GX fandom buddies about them. There were gifs and screams and squeals. It made me feel a lot better after previously having an emo rant earlier in the evening. I mean, first it was the fact that the voice-acting in the subs is about 117% better than in the dubs, and then it was O'Brien's legendary gaydar, and then it was speculation on the nature of the world-building in season three and beyond, and then it was endless screaming upon finding out that the dub had neglected to mention some of the more horror-inducingly awful deeds that Our Protagonist commits in this season, and then. I just. oh my god you guys. I want to share this fandom with everyone in the world ;~~~~~~~~~;

But I know not everything is everyone else's thing, too, you know? Like, I've tried to get into fandoms that others on my flist will spend posts and posts raving about, and just not been interested, even though I want to be. I know it goes both ways. But still. ;;

Have you guys ever had a fandom like that? Where it isn't very popular, or very well-regarded, but it just grabs you in some way, and you want everyone to know about it the way you do?

There are four episodes left in season three for me. I'm watching them tonight. Let me put this in perspective for you; I started this season Sunday night. I blew through forty eight episodes in five nights.

My commentary is barely even comprehensible. I think my brain cracked in half at some point. There's no going back now. I am married to this show, in all its eldritch wonderful horribleness.

Season Three's first arc, a.k.a. 'right before everyone gets highly fucked up' )

NEXT TIME: Season Three, Part Two, a.k.a. "in which Random cries all the tears that were ever wept."
elementalhero: NO PANTS (ξszs | i'm in despair)
Remember that time I read the game script to The World Ends With You? Yeah, well, during a large shopping excursion Friday night which I forgot to write about, I finally managed to turn up a used copy in a mall in Syracuse after scouring game shops for months.


I. Am. Addicted. To this game. To the point where I am plotting RP journals already.

...This is bad.


Speaking of RP journals, I'm considering making my own musebox for my abandoned journals so I can derp around without any commitment and invite others to derp with me. Thoughts?
elementalhero: NO PANTS (ξstock | my pokemanz)
I just bought Pokemon Platinum on a total whim! And I have gone through the gd intro like three times because I wanted to cheat and trade my starters over to my SS game and then restart until I got all three Sinnoh starters in one game and helped out my SS pokedex, too. It was a great idea on paper, but I am about to punch Barry through a wall. It was heart-breakingly adorable the first time! Mind-numbing the third, though!

But I named my female trainer Gloria after the girl in 21st Century Breakdown. Couldn't name the rival Christian, though (too many letters), so I named him Jimmy instead. Somehow, it suits him.

/pokemanz off into eternity
elementalhero: NO PANTS (Pokemon [Silver/Blue])
So I was walking my dog earlier today and contemplating the massive re-reading I have been doing of PokeSpe, both for RP purposes and because I just effing love this manga and it makes me so happy in every conceivable way. And I came to the realization that I have a lot of wacky headcanon for this series, as well as the most silly mass of tangled ships in any fandom ever. So I thought I'd share some with you all today!

AS AN ASIDE, WHYYYYY DON'T I OWN HEARTGOLD/SOULSILVER YET SOB

MY HEADCANON, LET ME SHOW YOU IT! )

I love this series.
elementalhero: NO PANTS (Pokemon [Ruby])
Redoing the 10 genres meme. Again. But for Pokespe this time! \o/

Write 10 different categories of fic, in as few words as possible.

RUBY/SAPPHIRE SHIPPING IS GO )
elementalhero: NO PANTS (Karin [heck yes])
So I was going to write a hugelong entry about Ruby's character, dissecting his relationships with his father and his Pokemon and the people around him and how he manages to be a huge woobie and also kind of a Jerk Ass and then a woobie again, but like, DARK WOOBIE-ISM in which he kind of subverts Woobie norms, and then I was going to talk about Sapphire and how awesome she is, and how cheap it was that she was completely kicked out of the final battle just so the full depth of Ruby's honestly screwed-up character could be explored, which upset me because I think Sapphire could have been just as screwed up as he was but they didn't bother after she spent the whole arc kicking ass and *pants pants pants, ran out of breath*

And then I went and read the FireRed/LeafGreen arc and completely forgot about it in favor of squealing "SILVER, SILVER, SILVER, SILVER, SILVER, RED, MEWTWO, YELLOW, SILVER, DEOXYS, MOSTLY SILVER, GREEN, SILVER, BLUE, BLUE, BLUE, STILL MOSTLY SILVER, GIOVANNI, OH MY GOD SILVER OH MY GOD"--*shot*

And then I forgot about Ruby and Sapphire again. ^^;;


THE FIRST PAPER'S DONE, HAHAHA NOW I'VE ONLY GOT ONE MORE OF THE SAME SIZE TO DO, FML FML

Also, this arc featured what I like to call RED GRADUALLY LOSING MORE AND MORE CLOTHING:

Photobucket
Red: "GIOVANNI THINKS HE'S SO COOL WITH HIS JACKET-STRIPPING ACTION, SO I THINK I'LL SHOW HIM HOW IT'S DONE!" *whoosh~*

Photobucket
Enemy RED used STRIP! RANDOM has fainted!


...I have no life.
elementalhero: NO PANTS (Sasuke & co. [high five!])

I just bought Okami and I spent three hours playing it.  What an amazing game.  Yes, I am super old-school behind-the-times, but whatever.  Okami's awesome.

Also, went and saw Star Trek.  Speaking as a person who has never ever seen anything Star Trek or even Star Trek-related in her life, I thought it was the best movie I've seen all year.  I also saw Up two days ago, and cried like a little girl.  Great movies, the both of them.  Up is so cute, I think it could cure cancer.

EDIT: Dear President Barack Obama, you are awesome, the end.

Write 10 different categories of fic, in as few words as possible.

Ganked from redbrunja, this meme has been going around my flist, and I felt like writing tonight.  I was all raring to write it to Itachi/Anko, but I changed my mind at the last minute to...

 

Sasuke/Karin. I know, what the frig. )
elementalhero: NO PANTS (Sasuke [dotdotdotdot])

So I'm supposed to be writing several Creative Writing stories that I am way behind on, in addition to doing that term paper that is due A WEEK FROM TOMORROW, but I was instead thinking about frivolous things. So I felt like sharing.

Ill-organized thinkythoughts on the Sannin and Sasuke )
I love it when people's words are thrown right back in their faces in that way.  Love it.  It's a trope that I adore.

Tangent on tropes, Disney movies, and pseudo-father/son relationships )

And....wow.  Okay.  Nothing...much more to talk about here.  I'm...going to go do some work or something.  *sidles out*
elementalhero: NO PANTS (Sasuke [OMG])

Yes, this is a post entirely about my dorkery for the week.

I started replaying Pokemon Silver.  I....don't know how this happened.  I just woke up, went to pitching with my sadistic pitching coach lady (who is very sadistic), came home, and suddenly scrounged up my GBA and my copy of Pokemon Silver, and started playing.  I really just don't know what's wrong with me.  I had rehabbed myself and everything.  Already, I want to be playing right now.

Also, I started reading Animorphs about five or six months ago.  Can I just say that these are the greatest books in the history of ever?  They are everything I have ever wanted:

--Six amazing, well-developed, awesome characters that make me fangirl over all of them
--Equal narrative time with each of them (each book is written in first-person POV from one of the six)
--Body-snatching aliens that are taking over the world
--A parental reveal that was actually surprising and touching, for all that it could have been such a cliche
--Mature themes of war and morality in books written for fifth graders
--They're long enough to satisfy, and short enough to be compulsively readable, like candy.
--MARCOOOOOOOOOOOOOO~~~~~~~
--TOBIASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS~~~
--RACHELLLLLLLLLLLLL~~~~~
--JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE~~~
--CASSIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE~~
--AX, YOU GIANT DWEEEEEEEEEEEEB~
--MOSTLY MARCOOOOOOOOOOOOO~~
--BUT ALSO TOBIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS~~~~~
--ET CETERAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA~

Somebody dork with me, pleeeeeeeeease?  I HAVE ONLY READ UP TO NUMBER 28, PLZ TO NOT BE SPOILING PAST THAT, KTHXBAI

RP meme! :D

Give me a character I play and I will give you a few facts about them according to my own personal canon. This can range from their birthday, favorite color or even their earliest memory up to what they had last night for dinner.

Stolen from [livejournal.com profile] bellzooks ~

Squarewarts: Uchiha Sasuke
The Dollsyhouse: Uchiha Itachi

Wow, self.  Way to branch out there.  *fails even at RP geekery*
elementalhero: NO PANTS (ZBPD [uhm])

...

I just put Sasuke on reserve at a new RPG ([livejournal.com profile] thedollsyhouse ).

...

I kind of hate myself right now.

*needs to work on app*
elementalhero: NO PANTS (Weber [made of sexy])

....Why have I never discovered wrestling before?

Short story short, I promised [livejournal.com profile] abrof  and [livejournal.com profile] chocomarauder  I'd come to one of their wrestling matches one of these days, this became the day, and I think I lost my voice from screaming.  I was so pumped!  Watching wrestling is awesome!  (I kind of ended up mostly watching the guys' rear ends, but let's not throw stones at the newbie, shall we?  *sweat*)  I kind of want to, like, break stuff or something, I'm so jacked up right now.

Or I would be, except my little sister's out getting X-rays of her elbows.  They might be fractured; she fell on them really hard at her basketball game, and she's in a lot of pain.  DDDDDD:  Keep her in your thoughts/prayers/Satanic rituals tonight, plz?  (Maybe not so much the last one.)

Haven't been posting much due to chronic laziness, addiction to RP, etc.  Actually, I've been meaning to dork out about RP for a while, so here:tl;dr I spend too much of my life RPing, don't look at me )
elementalhero: NO PANTS (Itachi [o rly?])
