icon journal of melanie and holly

Can someone with access to ihearts or something similar check to see if they have an upload to Kurosawa's Throne of Blood for me?

P.S. this is for school.

I've been going around to different journals that I don't have friended and guessing any leftover questions in the movie meme. IS THAT ... RUDE? IDK. I hope no one thinks it's rude.

ALSO YES I AM WORKING ON DAVEY. Right now, in fact!

It has taken me several hours to crank through my words this morning. Kept having to find a place to hide, and then weathered lots of interruptions. When it's quiet, I crank along, but when Chick is coming in every five minutes to ask questions, I stutter step. The laundry interrupts as well, but I've gotten all three loads of gentles done and onto the line, now, so YAY.

14343 / 50000 words. 29% done!

I'm trying for 2500 words a day, which is overkill. But that means if I underwrite for whatever reason, I'll be okay. Also, with Thanksgiving and Boo's birthday also this month, plus knitting and basketball and things like that... well, yeah. I need give myself a cushion.

Today I found out more about who Rosemary is, and brought her on screen to give Cian someone to deal with. Cian? Needs some social skills, desperately. He has managed to piss Rosemary off completely, and I can't blame her at all. Also, did a bit of work with Doyle, and sketched out where Trea is. Need to write some with Trea, but she also seems to be living up to her role of "pawn" and "lost princess" and may well not be on screen for much of the first half of the novel. I think rescuing her will be where the pivotal scenes for the halfway mark start happening.

Um, that halfway mark is around the 50k mark. Obviously I need to keep writing when the month is done.

And for fun, a tidbit of Cian and Rosemary. For the record? This is not a paranormal romance. Rosemary is not going to fall head over heels for Cian after he manhandles her because he is OMG the alpha male she cannot live without. She's going to try to beat the shite out of him eventually, and he's just all EW at the idea of her in general.

I didn't get a lot written yesterday. But oh well. Today, I am hoping to finish this paper before noon and then get a few other school things done. And some rp! I need to make a list later, I think...

( ETA: List )

Okay now that that is out of my system. PB suggestions people? I need a 15-16 year old girl, who is of Asian / Caucasian descent. Hair on the longer side would also be a serious plus. It's for DC comics Traci Thirteen.

Visual aides found: here, here, here, and here!

The idea that Nicki Aycox would make a great freshly bitten still dealing with her werewolfism Lavender Brown in her early 20s was not an idea I needed first thing this morning.

( asdkjsd I am so, so tired now. :| )

Look, it's more Logan Marshall-Green! I swore i was done, but in doing the last two episodes of Dark Blue that I had to do, Mr. Muppet Face had some more lovely expressions that i just couldn't resist. So small set here, but I had to do it.

Nicki Aycox from Dark Blue, FINALLY. I've been working on finishing out a decent set of her for ages, but I needed to get a few specific episodes done to get it complete. Standard Dark Blue disclaimers of course (there are some odd ones, from before I got the colorations better figured out, too). She was around 23-24 when these episodes were filmed.

i caved. so many of my fave people are apping this game. gotta do it.

( here lie two potentials )

Meta Golding, from Dark Blue. Someday I will be a completist and go find photoshoots to do as well, but for now, this small set will have to do. She has no age listing on IMDB so I'll go with guessing 20s, MAYBE early 30s (but I doubt it).

Dylan McDermott was roughly 38 when these episodes were filmed. Again, please excuse some really interesting colour palettes!

I hate iconning Dark Blue, and yet, I continue to do it. Please excuse some really strange colouration, but I've done my best to fix where I can. Omari Hardwick doesn't have a lot of facial expressions, but everyone once in a while he hits paydirt. He was 25ish when these episodes were filmed.

Lol I've been meaning to do a post-Powerswap post like... ALL WEEK. But whatever, this is totes more important.

( Chugga chugga choo choo! )

Took yesterday off from NaNo because of traveling to go see TAI... with eternaleponine. So I had been spending some time trying to get ahead during the week (considering I took Wednesday off as well, that was a trick and a half!). I went straight from CT to a write-in at Brueggers without going home.

The write-in was a new experience for me. I was there for about 2 1/2 hours, and I was social for part of it. I ended up having to put my headphones in so I could actually crank out wordcount. Everyone was talking a lot, which was good and nice to talk to other people who were doing the same crazy thing, but I just had a lot of trouble focusing. And I really needed to make wordcount while I was there since once I came home I knew it wasn't happening.

Anyway, I ended up making over 2600 words today, which got me to just barely over target for the day. So yay!

11813 / 50000 words. 24% done!

My snippet for the day isn't a story quote at all, but the note I had to leave for myself when I mentally bailed on writing a fight:
[Insert battle here later when you can think. Cat jumps in, takes off one of the critters and shakes it up, ripping it apart. Jack shoots the other one. Shayne ends up injured with a long scratch down her shoulder]

Since it has proved beyond my capabilities so far.

If anyone can find/source/make icons of Nicole Kidman in Australia and/or the Golden Compass, I would seriously appreciate it.

Actually notes about my steamtrek characters are coming, I promise.
