Oh, and another thing? I was looking through Rachel's friends page, and it turns out that Snapekid has a facebook too. XDDD (And he has over 200 friends!) Why does that make me laugh so hard?
Well, actually, that doesn't make me laugh as hard as this other thing Mum said. She made me promise not to post this, but I am. She realized that in regards to Snapekid's house, she had the wrong one, and it's not purple-y-pink, its a different house that's actually bubblegum pink. But anyway, she says, "I was just thinking... Snapekid's pink house is kinda like the equivalent to Snape's grey underwear, don't you think?" MUM FTW~ XDDDDDDD OW WAIT MY BRAIN OW
ANYWAY. On a whole other note, I listened to the released music for Kenji and I got that little leaping feeling in my chest, followed by incessant squealing. JAKE'S THEME MADE ME WANT TO CRY WITH JOY~ And Blue Badger of course, and Miiiiiiles~ (And I like the new Pursuit theme, even though it's sorta different.) It's like... I feel almost proud of the fandom.
I took pics of the fandomcase, finally, so those should be up soon. =DDD
And after thinking about it, I reeeeally want to write a Snape/Silent Hill crossover fic. It would be really interesting, I think, but I have to finish my other projects first (like the Royal fic! Though, speaking of that, I'm going to give
I just had this interesting exchange with Mum; she look at the news online, and she watches the D-Day ceremony and sees the thing on the sidebar: "ABC NEWS LIVE." So, "Is it really live?" she asks. And without thinking, I say, "Well, it was live when they taped it." This causes an awkward pause as we think about this. Oddly enough, things like this happen alot. (EDIT: She looked at my title quick, and asked, "Who is the Elvis of facebook?)

I have done very little this vacation, aside from watching an ungodly number of Buffy/Angel episodes, and writing and ungodly number of (short-ish) chapters for the New!Snape!fic. I've already told this to Echo and Stella, but this is in no way taking over the Life's Work- instead, it's a simple, straightforward, short vacation from it. Also, it's very different. Instead of a ship with an OC, it's a father/daughter sort of thing, which is cute. (In addition to that, it's a bit AU, with young!Snape apparently being friends with a Hufflepuff, as well as not living at Spinner's End, and being only a bit nicer.)
( Here is an excerpt completely unrelated to the plot, where Lucius had a random wild-ass party for the Death Eaters AHEM AHEM I MEAN a nice civilized party in celebration of Severus' birthday. Either way, Severus himself does not approve. )
In other news, Mum was badgering Andrew to get in the shower, and without any prompting from me said, "Your hair is greasy! Even Snape would look at your hair and say, 'Eew, take a shower!'" Needless to say, Iaughed hysterically at the thought.

I don't have time on account of history and english papers, but these are very important things.
- I wanted to watch The Wish, but D came over for dinner and danced around the kitchen with the breadbasket on his head for about six and a half seconds. I will watch it... ASAP. Promise.
- Finish the Royal fic that I stumbled across earlier today.
- Print out part of the Life's Work for
- Watch The Target, pour le Dollhouse.
- Post here that Mr. Quadros is trying to grow a beard, and I can no longer look at him without laughing because it is so ridiculous-looking.
BTW? In the argument between Rook and Luvander (I believe?) regarding the word 'pissant?' It is a word, because Spike used it, and Spike knows everything, including the fact that mini marshmallows are little powdered blobs of healing and sugar (but mostly sugar.)
Castle Malloy and the seventy year-old orphaned bog lady with a jet pack? The end was =DDD with the outtakes especially. "Come on, let me open the box. Please? Please, please, please, pleeeeeeease?"
There was a first season House on, and younger!Wilson is even more adorable, and I think the end was the first time I ever truly 'D'awwwwww'd' at a House episode.
My mum and I just watched a short French film about a monk who tries to catch a fish. I go and comment on how European animation makes me infinitely happy, and how the monk floating away with the fish is representative of finding peace with nature. My brother says, "THAT'S NOT PHYSICALLY POSSIBLE, STUPID FRENCH PEOPLE." Well, ma petit frere, ur face iz st00pid.
EDIT: Huh. My mum just pointed out how in love she is with the French language. "It's like flowers!" she says. "When I hear people speak it, it almost makes me want to cry inside. It's like when someone who loves music hears a really beautiful piece of music and they cry..." And then she flipped to the State of the Union quick and said, "OOH, NANCY PELOSIIIIII~ I WANT TO STICK YOUR EYES OUT WITH HOT POKERRRRRRSSSSS..."
On that note, I got to go to bed nao.

Hee! I finally sent in my question to
snapecast. I was fairly sure I heard something about a Valentine's day episode, so maybe it will make it in time for that. They do have alot of owlpost, though... Even still, I thought it was a good question. "That's the point, Joss! It's COMPELLING!" The question is as follows:
"I was writing some fanfiction and it got me wondering about the childhood relationship between Severus and Lily. I would only assume that they spent quite a bit, if not all of their time together during the summer in particular. That being the case, do you think Lily ever included Severus in some of her more feminine activities? If so, does the greasy git still know how to give a pedicure, do a french braid, and tell the difference between a pair of spring pumps and a pair of autumn ones?"
Stop looking at me like that. No, really. Can't you maybe see the two hanging out at her house, and Lily all, "Can you help me pick out an outfit for my cousin's wedding?" And Sev all, "IF THAT WOULD MAKE YOU HAPPY THEN OF COURSE I WOULD." Pathetic, but cute.
I guess to give you a peek into my fantastically fangirly and possibly/probably/admittedly delusional brain, I'll finally post the summer!fic. (My only two comments in advance are first about the monstrous Star Wars geeks I made the two of them into. Shoot me, please. Second, about the little part where Lily pats Severus on the head? If he weren't so down at that moment, he would surely have said, "I would prefer if you would refrain from petting me like a rabbit.")
Edit: BTW? I'm perfectly aware that Star Wars hadn't come out yet. I realized that after I had gotten all the ideas, and then I was just like, "screw it, I'll just put it in there anyway." =D

So... I really don't have much to post (big surprise! - no, really) but I figured I'd put something down anyway.
I finally listened to the rest of that Snapcast episode. They had a fic reading, actually, so when I woke up at five in the morning and couldn't go back to sleep, I figured I'd lay in bed and listen to it. So I'm sitting there, ten minutes in, in the dark, in bed, at five in the morning, bawling my little eyes out. It was like, Hermione being the clean-up crew for post-Hallows Snape, and it was actually kind of gross how they went into how his neck arteries were hanging out and everything, but... It was insanely heartbreaking, being inside Hermy's head at that point, and her thinking about what a sucky life he had and not being loved ever, and then they were talking about it afterward about the funky ending with the patronuses and how Snape's patronus came out as a hawk when they were closing the tomb because it probably was meant to be what it was before it was a doe like Lily and all, but then the doe showed up and he followed her into the Forest, and it was like she had forgiven him and come back to lead him home and I was just like, "BAAAAAAAAAAW!"
... That was a sucky synopsis, but that's ok. *sniffle*
It terms of other things that don't make my inner fangirl want to roll up in a ball and die, D's been sick and everything, so I sent him a copy of the Giley!fic, along with a lovely rundown of the Buffy knowledge he needed. It went something like:
"Giles: Think Remus Lupin (werewolf, Harry Potter, you know?) Think glasses. Think British. Think Obi-Wan, Gandalf or Dumbledore undercover as a librarian. Think... Tweed."
Unfortunately, however, the attatchment wouldn't go, so he ended up calling me and I read it to him over the phone. I think it made him feel alot better. If he visits today, then I might read him the first part of the Snilly fic. (This all reminds me that I need to do my ff.net thing- argh, I have to get around to that.)
Im just throwing this out, now that I'm on a bit more of a Furuba kick and I picked up this new icon and all, but I'm sort of starting to realize that I really identify with Tohru. I mean, I know she seems cute and innocent and all, but she's got some serious inner demons. That, and she tries to make everyone around her happy and feel better and all. In fact... I think she might be one of my favorite female characters... In general. I mean, more than Hermione for sure, and more that Willow I think, and maybe more than Kaylee? That's questionable. But yeah.
Hey, you know that new Kelly Clarkson song, My Life Would Suck Without You? I can't help but think of how perfect this is for my Life's Work- by which I mean the lyrics work and not so much the peppy tune (SNAPE DOES NOT APPROVE.) But really, it does work ridiculously well.
Being with you
Is so dysfunctional
I really shouldn't miss you,
But I can't let you go

I know that I've got issues
But you're pretty messed up too
Either way, I found out
I'm nothing without you
Hee. <3
I also went shopping with my mum yesterday, and my God I was in a good mood. Even my mum, the maternal-like Mrs. Weasly was like, "Uh... Are you okay? You're so... Cheery." Maybe it's 'cause I got to rest my brain a little bit when I was sick. But I was in such a good mood that I ended up telling her that I danced with Tyler at the semi. I had just talked about it with Echo (just before Inkheart, actually, so that's why it was so weird seeing him there) and I thought I was going to keep it to myself. But I was just feeling so fuzzy that I kept literally opening my mouth to say it, and it wouldn't come out. So I'd be quiet again. And finally my mum just sort of popped out with, "Oh, hey, how's Tyler?" And I was just like, "OK YEAH ABOUT THAT- EEEE!?" And she thought it was cute, and tried to convince me that he didn't ask simply because Paige told him to. Because he would totally do that. He went out with Allison in junior high just because he heard she liked him and he felt bad. So I dunno. I'll see Paige on the bus at one point or another and maybe we can girl talk more? =3 She's good at that.
Hockey game today- I'm not sure if Timmy will be playing, though. I'm sure, as always, that Erica would be tremendously happy if he did. BRUUUUUUIIIINS YEAH!

But I'm better today, so I finally got around to getting a dress pic up here. Aaaand... Voila!
( Pictures under the cut! )
So yeah, that's what the semi dress looks like. It was either Abby or Becca that took one look at it and said, "OMG, you look just like River!" To which I paused and said, "Um... Is that a good thing?" And then we went on this whole thing about how I technically needed a big slit up the side, and Becca offered to make one and was was just like, "Uuuuh, no."
In the Hellboy section of last post, I forgot to point something out. Remember Howdy Doody from the beginning? Remember Howdy Doody from D's birthday card? I love how they were trying to make a point that it was a long time ago, and I'd imagine D would just be like, "DDDDDD=" To be honest, I don't know which was scarier, Hellboy or Howdy Doody.
Ok, so in French we had vocab words and one of them was 'mirror' or 'le miroir.' If we were to pretend it was feminine, we might even have 'Lamiroir,' thereby assuming that Apollo looks very much like his mother. I dunno, but if I can get a squeal out of French class, it's worth posting.
(End of spoilers! Just, I hate spoiler-y things; getting spoiled is my pet peeve. XD)
I saw Inkheart with
Echo also pointed out that Capricorn has joined the ranks of Bald-Villains-I-Can't-Bring-Myself-To-Re
*Heehee, Jeff Dunham avatars!*
So, night before last I was too sick to sleep, so I ended up rereading the first few chapters of Inkspell. The movie messed me up a little bit, though, 'cause I was like, "Whoa, Dustfinger isn't in the Inkworld. Whoa, Basta and Mortola are alive. Whoa, Farid's not living with them. Whoa, Darius is there. Whoa, Resa can't talk."
Of course, I tried to go to sleep after that, and I couldn't. So, you know what happens when you want to sleep but can't: you get a plot bunny. And I figured, "Heck, I can't go to school tomorrow anyway!" So I got up and blasted out 1.6k of Snilly goodness. Currently, it's nearly 4k. I mean, it's not Snilly, per se. It's more like Sev being Lily's go-to guy friend, and Sev is just sort of wistful and quiet about how he feels. It's also a summertime thing, so they're mostly just hanging out and being giggly and best buddy-like. I might post it when I'm done. If nothing else, I need to start a new Fanfiction.net account. Start fresh and all. Giley!fic can go up there too, and the Royal!fic if I'm ever moved to finish that. And of course, my Life's Work, whenever that's gorram done with.
Look, it's shorter!

Much, much better. My tests are over, and although I have a quiz tomorrow and two more tests on Monday, I'm not worried about those at all. (Although I have a Psych paper to do and that's unfortunate.) BUT ANYWAY~
So. Although everything has been eclipsed by the multiverse!fic, there are still other snippets to declare upon my journal. For example: for future reference, "happy" in Spanish is not "happyoso," and the next time my brother draws something for his Spanish homework, I know that it is actually a worm in an apple and not an old guy with liver spots /global warming with a thermometer in Africa /a rotten tomato smoking pot.
I got this awesome Marvel!verse t-shirt. Best freaking thing ever. I mean really: if you can find a shirt with Wolverine on it, you've got yourself a gem.
I need to get my Sarah Palin costume together for tomorrow. How on earth am I going to do my hair? I know I'll be sitting there in front of the mirror tomorrow morning, pulling an Echo and be all "frigging frick on a biscuit."
I was humming Layton's theme song all day.
Some kid had a lightsaber on their iPhone. It was all "NEEEEROOOM. FWISH. NEEEEER-KEET!"
I couldn't fall asleep Tuesday night and I tried everything. I even took my Snape!figure (compliments
Ok. Later. I need to talk about the Trailer, and I want to discuss NaNo, and I took some AWESOME pictures of my bedroom that reminded me that I want to post a pic of my fandom!bookcase.
That's all, since I need to do Palin-y things in the morning. G'night!

Ok, so here's my NaNo plan. This coming week, I do no actual writing at all. Instead, I do enough bio and psych vocab to last me a month, do the history project that I know isn't due for another three to four weeks, rake the backyard, reread at least the first two, maybe three Harry Potters (for reference) and then organize an outline for what I want to write/the format of how it's going to go (because sometimes I have trouble is I don't know where I'm going with something.) Dude, I can do this. =D
In other news, HALLOWEEN IS COMING UP EEEEEE~ <3 So, it's been decided that doing a Snape-coat is definitely out of the picture, because we were really too busy doing D's party to get started and now it's sort of late. However, my mum and I might be able to do it for ComicCon, so that's great. My second idea was to do Professor Layton, and my mum kinda was like, "Aaaaaaaah-no." Of course I could have found a brown suit and top hat! Oh, well. Maybe, again, for ComicCon. SO THAT BRINGS ME TO MY NEXT POINT (which is, like, so totally related, I swear.)
I was in my improv class, and the prompt was to do an advertisement skit. So, we had this whole skit for "Palin Pals," all with "Who is going to buy this doll?" "Every soccer mom and joe six-pack who ever wanted a playmate!" (To which I wonder, what the heck is a joe six-pack?) So apparently I can do a decent Palin imitation, and said imitation has been approved by the Palin groupies in my French class... So that's what I'm doing for Halloween. XD My dad didn't like it, and so I kinda second-guessed myself, and then I figured, "Screw that, I'm doing it anyway." I even got red, white and blue bands for my braces, so yeah, that's coming along. "And the great, Ronald Regan... *large, slow, rolling nods*"
Ok. So. Things I have to do.
- Do my Bio/Psych vocab
- Do all of my long-term chores
- Get my Palin costume together
- Find out what the heck that History thing actually entails
- READ SOME HARRY POTTER GUYZ (
- Do an outline
- Get Tyler to play Professor Layton
