Setting Notes

From a game that never really ever came to be, despite the efforts of several interested parties. Someday I'll figure out what to do with it.

Original Witty Irene-related Title Here

The power is out, I'm rigged to a generator, and I'm blogging about the hurricane. This is all going to seem terribly hypocritical of me in a few minutes, but ... I need to get this all down before the threads that are still left in my mind dissolve. Having to spend the afternoon with my parents has already killed a lot of it, so. Here goes.

Cut for eclectic pagan rambling and the stark contrasts between my mother and I. )

So, as a result of last night's list, I may or may not have made myself a musebox community/journal thing.

► where my fandom at?

Wish List. Sort of.

And now, a list of Characters I Would Absolutely Adore Playing In Paradisa, But Never Will Unless I Drop One of the More Active Ones Like Five Or Ray.

Because I can. In no particular order:

Clarice Starling: I love her but oh my god, she'd have her nose in everything. And I'd be petrified of getting her voice right. She's so complex, hnnngh. Not gonna lie, part of why I picked up Eunice last year was because she's like, Clarice Lite. All the badass, half the psychological complexity and baggage.

Aeon Flux: Because she'd be fun the first few times I killed her off randomly, but I'd probably get bored with her quick.

Henry Stauf: OH MY GOD, Henry, you magnificent bastard, you were MADE for Para. But with me playing Ray, it'd be a little character incest-y playing a slightly godmod ghost toymaker with a built-in ability to make Faustian bargains. Just sayin'.

Zaphod Beeblebrox: I've already got Barney. 'Nuff said? 'Nuff said.

Simon Grim: I've already got MARK. 'Nuff said? 'Nuff said.

CLU: I ... like AU personal!RP CLU 3.0 too much, and AUs are not allowed. It'd just kinda make me sad.

Seregil Bokthersa: God, I love him, in terms of gender identity, his philosophy, his flamboyant crazy bardness, EVERYTHING. But Para already has Felix for Sassy Fantasy Gay Magic Shenanigans, so. Also, one of those ones who'd have his nose in everything.

Tony Stark Too soon. Way, way too soon. And to play him properly I'd have to drop down to two, if not JUST Tony. And I like diversity.

Jack, again No ocean, no pirate. I tried it, and honestly, it ... really is that simple. Sadly.

Darkwing, again I just ...... it breaks my heart to say it, but ... no. For too many reasons.

Rorschach, again Same.

Mr. Gone Way, way, WAY too godmod, and figuring out what rules of the Outback would apply and which wouldn't would be too much of a headache ... sort of like Joshua from TWEWY.

Charles Foster Ofdensen: I have enough headcanon of badass to keep him from being boring, certainly. And with the series having a concrete end in sight, well. There IS the possibility of bringing him in once it's over. But ... how long would I be able to keep HIM, himself, from being bored and going "Oh, f*** this"?

Pickles: Same. I mean, really, how often can you post "Dood, I am so fuckin' bombed right now" and make it interesting? Pfffft. In reality, he wouldn't really do much.




And last but not least, ever, ever, ever:

Dr. Paul Robert goddamn motherfucking Feistus.

The no OCs rule is about the saddest thing that ever existed when you've got a decade-old muse with more complexity than a good third of some of the muses in that game.

I AM JUST SAYING.

... also Dr. Jon Knight for the same reason, but if you roll Mark and Barney into one character, you ... kinda get Jon if you squint.

► adhere with ectoplasm!

So many thoughts, so little time

Well, for one, BIG SAD: Boom Comics lost all their Disney licensing. No more Darkwing for me after Issue #20 comes out. Here's hoping that Marvel picks it up - and Ducktales, too.

On the reading front ... still reading up on Zen stuff. Finished Rule of the Bone by Russell Banks, which was a pretty damn good coming-of-age novel, as those go ... and the first book of the Land of Elyon series, which was cute YA fantasy ... and the first book of Lynda S. Robinson's Egyptian murder mysteries ... and I'm still debating giving up hope on the Sookie Stackhouse novels ... and and and and BOOKS OH EM GEE, I have been reading like a fiend, lately, basically. And have had minimal complaints about ALL of it. Not even the Christopher Pike I'm rereading. It's actually one of the few that's as good as I remembered.

Hmm. Still no luck on the healthy cheap recipe front ... though I had a bacon, lettuce, salsa and swiss concoction this evening that I am henceforth calling the BLiSS Sandwich, because that is what it freaking IS. And I was smart and bought my chai, bagels and cream cheese this week. Sorry, Dunkin' Donuts. I'm saving myself at least $15 this week on breakfasts. Woot woot.

I've about had it with one of my co-workers' attitudes ... gonna try and say something tomorrow ...

And I honestly JUST realized that I have a lot in my brain, and don't actually need to put it down here, tonight. My mind's pretty much in order. Bluh bluh bluh, life carries on, bluh bluh. Orchard parties are fun even if nothing of merit happened, Borders closing is a big sad, but not catastrophic, jewelry-making is fun ...

Oh, and DDOS attacks THROW OFF MY RPING GROOVE. STOP IT, LJ. STOP IT FOREVER.

... I think that may actually be the biggest thing I wanted to say, right there.

► sometimes you just gotta laugh

in which I am fed up with my stomach misbehaving

Quick question/dilemma time:

I really need to get my ass in gear and start eating HEALTHY food instead of crap. But I don't have the money right now to do PROPER grocery shopping - you know, have enough food for two weeks in between paychecks, and still feel full, and have it actually be healthy. (Hot Pockets, you are cheap and delicious but you are ruining my stomach.)

Anyone know any easy, yummy healthy recipes for a picky eater who's TRYING to be better about this sort of thing?

(NOTE: I really want to love chef salads. I do. I have tried to love them. Certain types of lettuce, however, do not love me, so that option is out, and it makes me cry.)

This weekend, I clean all the things. ALL OF THEM.

The problem is not knowing where to start. Le sigh. Anyone have any cleaning procedure suggestions for a girl with absolutely no empty space anywhere for the designated organizing of things?

TO GOOGLE.

Yes. Google shall help me clean. ... I am convinced of this. Somehow.

► where my fandom at?

On going "home" again. Fandom-wise. And other things.

First of all, I had an opportunity to turn a ridiculously stressful clusterfuck into a GOOD thing, which was fantastic. I'm not going to go into details about the stressful part, because it's over, and done, and not worth holding on to ... but the good parts? Definitely worth sharing.

Last Saturday, I GMed my first tabletop game (with a party of more than 2, anyway) in almost 2 years, and it felt damn good. I think I have the perfect party ever - my friends ROCK - and we ended up gaming for nine hours. Almost straight through, minus breaks for running down the street for food. We have the stamina of gaming gods. Just sayin'. And we had just enough time to hoof it to the cheap theater and go see Rio. Which was cute, but ... I'm glad we went to the cheap theater. :P

Sunday, Laurel had to work, so I hung out at her place and updated the game wiki, did some writing, that sort of thing. Read a book for about four chapters, got insanely frustrated with Charlaine Harris, and hence put said book right back down again. I'll probably go into some sort of rant about True Blood/the Sookie Stackhouse books in its own post, because it deserves getting out there. But once Laurel got out of work, we went to dinner at this barbecue place we've always meant to try, and it was amazing and fantastic, and then we finished Season 3 of Metalocalypse, FINALLY, and that was also amazing and fantastic, and I don't know why adult swim is making us wait until spring for more. Monday was the stressful crap, but it was also the beach, and Goodwill, and an amazing old used bookstore's closing sale, and dinner, and Kill Bill 1&2, which I had never seen.

In a nutshell, I had the sort of weekend I don't feel like I've had in a long time - and maybe not ever: the perfect balance of the woman I love, my friends, some awesome fangirl indulgence, some nature zen, and some quiet time to myself. I think if I can find a way to make ALL my free time ever for the rest of my life balance out that amazingly, I'll be set. And I'll just sell self-help books about the secret of it and make a million.

As for the actual title of this entry? (Yeah, I WAS getting to it, surprise.) Well.

This is going to be a messy, unorganized jumble of fangirling and introspection. Read at your own risk. )
