Books and Fics and Words and Lines

[shiroi_ten]

So this week has been horrible but of course fandom salvages the last of my sanity. Everyone is so awesome and you can't stay SAD while Arthur and Eames are in a summer camp, or sleeping in a bed together, or you know, rimming each other. ITS JUST NOT POSSIBLE. Just like my grades. THEY ARE IN LIMBO FOREVER.

So I stayed up until 2 craving some easy read fantasy. I love love love fantasy. Especially when the main character is charismatic, good looking, and very powerful. And it also helps if he is gay. :) What did I read? Magic's pawn by Mercedes Lackey. http://www.amazon.com/Magics-Pawn-Last-Herald-Mage-Book/dp/0886773520

C: I ADORE the series. It is so melodramatic and angsty and the people are so inherently goody-goody it makes me happy again. Plus the ending of the trilogy. I live for the catharsis at the end. >A<

So drawing for i_reversebang and I submitted my first draft of one...now for my draft of something else I got to get done this weekend!

On the plus side my brother is coming to visit this weekend so I won't be too lonely baking for Valentines day. I will upload some doodles of Eames and Arthur smoking soon.

HAPPY FRIDAY!

EXCITEMENT FOR REVERSE BANG, I HAS IT

OMG

Also, Mercedes Lackey was my first real fannish love. She is such a fangirl herself, what with her love of birds and horses and ~~~~soulbonding and filk. Magic's Pawn was literally the first story I ever read with a gay main character. ... there's still not a lot outside of the 'special interest' section of the library, you know, but it's getting better, anyway.

Yay!!! Reverse bang!!! I can't wait!

Yes! She loves pretty characters with complexes . I actually first picked up a sci-fi book with a gay main character when I was really young. My older brother actually read Magic's Pawn first. shock!

hahah. My favorite books seem to end up with life-bonded couples spending eternity together.

OH MY GOD YES. The Last Herald-Mage trilogy is alskjdflasjdf;lasjfdlasj AWESOME. I cry every. single. time. I reread Magic's Pawn! Which, come to think of it, has been a couple of years since the last time I did that. Hmmm. *considers*

Also! Doodles? Of Arthur & Eames smoking?! alsjdfalsjfdlsdjf I can't help myself, pics of people smoking sexily are my not-so-secret weakness! <333

I could gush about that trilogy for HOURS. HOURS I TELL YOU. I feel wells of joy after they reunite that counteracts all the heartwrenching of the first book. *sees an opportunity for rereading*

x3 I have lots of doodles in my planner, with not-so white paper I shall clean and post soon! After I finish my reverse-bang WIP.
