... Guys, don't get up 3 hours before going to work, go to work for 4 hours, and not eat anything that whole time.

It's just.

No.

Don't do it ):

And oh god my schedule next week, fffff. I shouldn't complain about having so many hours during my first "real" week, but this is not gonna be fun.

I could go on about what I discovered on pixiv today or how work went, but eh. Have a meme instead :|b

Guys.

( Guys. )

ISN'T IT BEAUTIFUL |D

I feel sorry for whichever of my descendants are alive that day. They're getting stuck with one hell of a bill.

... G ... Guys ...?

... G-Guys? ;___;

( About that ... job interview I had scheduled for today. )

First off, happy Halloween guys! I dunno how you guys are spending it, but mine will consist of food shopping, watching history channel specials with dad, and lots of Okami. ... Oh, and I guess I'll give candy to whatever rings the doorbell too I guess.

... I guess.

It's suppose to pour in my area, so I'm not so sure I'll be getting a lot of kids coming by. Although my block is full of families with young kids, so I doubt the doorbell won't be rung at least 5 or so times. Bah.

I'm kinda lazy about getting something together to wear, doubly so since I'm going to be chilling in the house with my dad, but since it's Halloween, I might put on my Adrian Andrews cosplay. It'll be dressing up, but it won't be in a way that my dad will look at me all "What are you doing |: " like.

Also, I got the "broken" game back in the mail from that game buyer dude. Turns out it wasn't broken -- I forgot to put the game in and sent an empty case XD; Turns out the game was still in my DS. Whooooops. Oh well, I'll just redo the new quote I made for the GBA games I'm selling and add it back in. No biggie.

( And here lies some Luceti stuff and a request. Yup yup. )

So, yup. That's all /o/

( WHY ISN'T IT OCTOBER 3RD YET. )

/SCREAM

... what was I doing before this link was sent my way, I don't even ...

Edit: And now, to add some more of a point to my post -- memes. Stolen from like. God. Seriously, everyone and their rooster.

A. "Has my portrayal of a character(s) changed the way you think of him/her?"

B. Pick one of my characters and I'll answer the following questions about him or her.

1. What would your character kill for? What would they die for?
2. What would they refuse to do under any circumstances? Why?
3. What do they dream about?
4. What’s their biggest fear?
5. What single object would they be most hard pressed to part with? Why?
6. What is their fondest memory?
7. What is their worst memory?
8. What or who was were their most significant influence? Expound.
9. What do they believe makes a successful life?
10. What makes them laugh?
11. What are their religious views?
12. What is their greatest strength?
13. Do they have a fatal flaw? If so, what is it?
14. Who is the most important person in their life?
15. If they died, who would miss them most? How would they die?

Stolen from like. Three or four people on my f-list at this point.

Use any variety of pictures that are already on your hard drive to answer the criteria. They can be drawings, photographs, screen caps, anything you want.

( Cut to save f-lists. )

Alright, first off, I just wanna apologize for the lack of pictures. My camera died during Tales Photoshoot #1, and I was in a rush to get back to the Phoenix Wright photoshoot I was a part of while it was going on (which was hilarious, because they were literally side by side).

Anyway.

( Herein lies my Otakon adventure. )

All in all, I had an awesome time at the con. I'd elaborate more on the awesome spec, but I'm tired as hell. So yes /o/ To those who read that tl;dr, I congratulate you. Sorry for the lack of pics -- Rainie's uploading some, so I'll likely steal them when they're all up and blast them all over my journal then.

Puttin' this up now.

BRB CON

As far as contact goes, IM me or comment here if you want/need my cell number. Just be aware that I'm kinda special and tend to not answer most times. I'll get back to you as soon as I notice I missed your call, though. Which could be hours later in some fail cases.

COSPLAY SCHEDULE:

Thursday: Not cosplaying.
Friday: Flonne - All day. Might switch to Yuri if wearing Flonne becomes annoying after a while.
Saturday: Tanktop Lover!Yuri - All day.
Sunday: PW2!Adrian Andrews - Might end up wearing it home, probably won't.

Back to packing and fixing up Flonne's wig. For some of you, I'll talk to you more on AIM, but others, I'll see you when I get back. Later, yo o/

Guys guys guess what.

Guess what.

I'm playing Lifeline. And it is the best game ever.

And by that, I mean I have never cursed so much in under an hour.

Thank you, Lifeline. You brighten everyone's day by being that frustrating :)

I should record myself playing this game. I'm not sure if I suck, my mic sucks, or this game is just epic fail.

AIM.

AIM.

DO NOT TEST ME.

I WILL PUNCH YOU, YOUR MOM, AND YOUR COUCH. AND KICK YOUR DOOR.

I WILL DESTROY YOUR DOOR.

So please work now, thanks :|

Damn it all, I can't sleep. I'm not really in the mood to RP or go back into chat either right now :|; Maybe in a few hours, I could use the little break.

...

You know what? I'm going to make icons :| Expect an icon post by tomorrow.

... Or I'll fail and just boot up Sims 3 and stop playing around 5 or so because you lose track of time when you play that game so damn easily.

... I dunno. I'm thinkin' icons. I already got everything set up to make em, so I might as well. Maybe I'll start with the uncolored crop I'm using for this post. Yeah :|

... So yeah. Got a dreamwidth account that I'm not gonna use. Just felt like getting one for the hell of it, really. Thanks for the code, Kyo.

It's trueknight. I WONDER WHERE I GOT THAT FROM 8|

... Yeah.

/goes to sleep.

Stolen from everyone ever.

Ask me a question about my roleplaying characters in context of the game. It can be any question, about relationships, history, plans, what they're doing right now, romance, what they want to do, their favorite comfort foods, anything. It just has to be about the character in game context. I will do my best to answer the question in as much detail as possible.

luceti

> Flonne
> Leon Magnus
> Yuri Lowell
> Luca Trulyworth
> Rika Furude

As a bit of a bonus, and to work on her muse a little--

> Lymle Lemuri Phi

Just ... be nice when it comes to questions for her, if there are ever any :|;;

Also, to add to the meme, feel free to thread-hop with your own characters, too.

( Also, adding this on for the lulz. )

( Air Force babblings )

Finally started gaming again. Only played Animal Crossing, though. That game will never get old ): I'm debating whether to play SO4 or ToV or both now. Probably will end up just going for SO4. I'm too lazy to switch disks right now.

I also want to put up a post for Yuri, mostly to give Judy an opportunity to break the "wonderful" news, buuuut I need to find other things for him to talk about. I mean, besides Karol being gone. He can't talk about GLaDOS ANI, so that's a no go. I don't even think he'd hint about ANI or the current situation, either. Don't wanna invite any windows of opportunity for someone who doesn't know any better to go "OH, YOU MUST BE TALKING ABOUT THAT AI OBSERVER, RIGHT? 8DDDDD?", because I might scream :| Mentally, anyway.

So yeah. Gotta ... come up with something. I don't want to dip into my reserves again, either. Last time I did that, a lot of my responses on that post came out awkwardly and weird. Well, my head wasn't in the game either, so that just made it worse :|; At least I'm more focused now that a lot of the packing is done and the stress behind getting things together for the Air Force is over with.

... Yep.

Maybe I'll post with Luca. Nah, she was the last one to post. Rika's got nothing, Flonne has stuff to say but her muse is on vacation to half-past forever at the moment, and I'm just ... not in the mood to play Leon right now :|; I'll figure something out for Yuri by midnight, I'm sure.

... /wanders back to the 360 for now

Also, my cat just did a barrel roll right off the top of a box. That was pretty amazing.

Thanks to everyone who (in whatever way they chose to do so) wished me a happy birthday today ♥ I really appreciated it. No thanks to my brother texting me to do so, as the man gave me a mother-truckin' heart attack. I hate the rumble feature on my cell.

Sooo, I'm ... 20 now. All that means is that I'm officially old. I already went through my "... oh god, I'm going to be 20" phase last month, so now it's just kinda like "lol kay".

Uh, let's see. Started Star Ocean 4. As usual, Tri-Ace makes me feel like I'm blind by making the text this small in the menus and most other things. I mean, when I saw "Quests" in the menu, I would've bet $5 that it said Guests. I only realized it was a Q and not a G because having Guests be a menu option in an RPG just sounded weird. It's Star Ocean after all, not Homemaking with Barbie. I got as far as the Clanus (I think that's what it's called?) Calnus crashing before I went "lol it's 3AM I think I should be sleeping".

Also, I wanted to punch Welch in the face. Thankfully, I hear that everyone wants to punch Welch in the face at the beginning and that she's supposed to get better later in the game. She did make me lol once, though, so I guess I'll have to forgive her for now.

Anyway, lots to do tomorrow! I might call it a night early so I wake up early enough that I'll actually have the drive to do things.

Also also. Angeal and his ass lasers are amazing discussion topics. Seriously.

You know, for as much as everyone says the Brady Games guide for Tales of Vesperia sucks hardcore, you'd think they wrote the guide about the wrong game or something. Yeah, I'll admit, the guide doesn't tell you jack about sidequests and has a title for Yuri in it that doesn't (or no longer?) exists, and it certainly isn't helpful if you're doing anything past going from point A to point B (even there it's questionable), but it does do one thing right that Namco-Bandai themselves did wrong.

The heights in the guide? Are accurate.

Yes, I'm still bitching about the heights being inaccurate elsewhere, such as the game's manual and wikis and such 8| IT'S SERIOUS BUSINESS, OKAY.

Also, Yuri is an entire foot taller than Rita. That somehow makes me lol. And Karol is just. Tiny. 4'5". Holy crap, that kid better eat his Wheaties :| Yeah, I know, he's 12, blah blah blah.

Also also, Repede is taller than Estelle when standing up. That is hilarious to me. Repede, you are a massive animal. I miss having a big dog ):

Edit: And Brady Guides actually did mess up on one height -- Raven's. They said he was 5'11" when he's actually 5'7".

Heights for fictional characters. Serious. Freakin'. Business.

... Right, I was supposed to go back to clearing out my room today.

...

... fffff. I'll get to it :|;

We have 57 Tales characters in Luceti. That's either 1/3 or 1/4 of the population there. Rock on, guys.

Besides that little bit of trivia, my dad finally found an apartment for us. We're moving on May 12th, but to lower costs for things actually being moved, we'll be moving things all through the beginning of May and probably the end of April. Damn it all, I have to start packing, don't I? ): Only real "downside" to the place is that the bedrooms are small. So I ... don't know what I can and can't fit into that room. My dad seems to think I can get my desk, a dresser, and my little fire hazard pile (entertainment center or whatever it's called) in there, so I'll believe him. Too bad I have to say goodbye to my queen-sized bed. Oh well. Still, not looking forward to that stiff mattress we have for the single-bed I'm getting ):

/crais moar

Nothing much else to report. I'm going to be out probably ... Friday? Maybe. Friday or tomorrow. Gotta call my brother. Also gotta see about temp job placement exams which I called "sidequest jobs" and later "guild jobs" by accident in Google. Hahaaa, I'm doomed for life. Suddenly! Things to do. Craziness.

... Also, gotta finish up my Yuri cosplay. The chances of me cosplaying Emil are looking dimmer by the second .___.; So I think I'm just going to go for Yuri, Flonne, and either Subaru or Adrian Andrews. As long as I don't get stalked by creepers again ._.; I don't think I'm going to cosplay Minato either ... well, ever again or for a long time. Nothin' do to with other people or anything, I just think I wore that outfit into the ground XD; Tired of it and all that. And I don't want to cosplay Luke again without a less radioactive-looking wig.

Eh. I'll have to see.

Hey guys, look what was thrown my way /o/

Screenshots of both the PS3 version of Tales of Vesperia and the movie.

Seems the movie is going to be about Yuri's time in the knights, judging by the fact that his hair is a little shorter, he's in the knights, Alexei's around, Estelle looks a little younger, and Repede looks retarded is a puppy. There's some red-head chick around too. Some people believe her to be Casey, but she seems to be in the same squad as Yuri and Flynn judging by their uniforms, so that's very likely not true.

Also, Yuri looks horrible in his uniform. No wonder Flynn used to make fun of him 8|

Raven appears to be in it too, as well as Rita. No sign of Karol or Judith.

Even though some people I know are crapping out entire cities in rage over the PS3 version of the game, let's try to stick to the movie, kay? What does everyone think it's going to be about? Yuri's time in the knights? Some kind of prologue?

Thoughts? 8| Seems it was actually linked in the Vesperia comm, now that I look. Oh well, I like discussing things privately too XD;

Guys. Every last one of you on my f-list has to see this.

Now.

Go.

Tell your friends, too.

greyangel (8:16:46 PM): blue wangs need to do more recruitment drives, its been a while. should poke meowzy about that too.

I finally got my icon community, failcons, up and running and ... pretty and all that. Stuff like that. So yeah.

Got the first batch up. It's mostly made up of prettified old icons of Yuri, but there's some Tales of Destiny in there too. A good chunk of Zagi icons as well. Check it out if you want :|b

As for me, I'mma pass out somewhere. Damn tired for some reason or another. I'll cross-post my icons in the Tales comms when I'm not ready to pass out.

.....

Can anyone read this and not A) gag, B) wonder what the Sam Hell the author was on, or C) actually FINISH reading it?

Seriously.

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS 8|

Might as well throw this meme up before I disappear for hours to clean the house. Stolen from the eight people on my f-list who also put it up. You all know who you are 8|

Edit: Considering all of my Luceti muses have been taken already, my muse list is here.

I just got a text message this morning.

... That was sent to me on February 26th.

:|

Good job, Verizon. Excellent work.

First off, this journal is now Semi-Friends Only. I'll make a new banner later. That means some entries will be public, others will be Friends Only.

Second? ( Email turned into a bot :| )

... yep.
