Spam! Wrote this not long after TDK came out but never posted it. Since the evil twin just wrote Joker/Scarecrow with similar elements, I knew I had to post it as the same time as hers or I'd never do it. Team Porn does Arkham. Arharhrh.


The Frayed Ends
Batman. Batman/Joker. R. ~1000 words. Nolanverse. Violence.
Darkness gathers into a swarm around them and Bruce doesn’t want to let the bastard take one more goddamn breath.

Just a little something to get me in the groove for doing homework. Done without access to my usual brushes so there are several big things that make me go DDDD:, but I didn't want to spend more than an hour on this. Warmup means warmup, Pondy.

Avengers. Steve/Tony. G.

11/19/09 08:09 pm - [info]ponderosa121 - Things what I have been doing

Attended a benefit dinner last night with J, maiki, and Susan for a non-profit that we've done a lot of work for. Materials that both Susan and I had designed were all over the place and it was really nice to see it all out and looking snazzy. Susan's done a lot to get their informational materials/reports looking clean and professional. I did the benefit's programs, invites, and carried over from last year was a set of promotional posters which I'm still proud of. The project, per usual, made me gnash my teeth at times, but I do enjoy working for them, and it was flattering when people whom I didn't expect compliments from told me they were impressed by the invitations in particular. :D Leading up I had this worry about the pagination on the program booklet since I worked entirely remotely and never saw a proof (or even had time to run one myself!) but everything turned out beautifully and typo-free. By this point, I've done enough recent work to have a solid design portfolio again, so with so few classes left ahead of me it's nice to have that in addition to what's shaping up to go on my reel.

I didn't mingle much, as J and I were introduced to some great people early on and there was no incentive to bother straying away from the interesting conversation to rub elbows with people outside my industry. It was somewhat fascinating attending something like this after so long, and also after now having worked on catering from the serving end! The appetizers, by the way, were awesome. I wish we offered some of them on our own menu, especially the warm cranberries and almonds in phyllo cups. Yum.

My shoes were remarkably comfortable. I haven't worn actual heels in forever and it's nice to confirm that my knee can handle hours standing around in 3" heels.

11/18/09 01:46 pm - [info]zehavit_lamasu - The concise TO READ pile...

I challenged myself to reduce the immediate TO READ pile to ten books or less... as you can see I succeeded with flying insanity... that is if by 10 you mean 14... IT IS THE NEW MATHEMATICS!!! In years to come I shall be hailed as the woman who revolutionised science (with the cunning use of the element of STUPID! ^^;;).



Two re-reads included. Guess which? Answers on a postcards! Virtual Bishie Cookie for the winner. people who spoke to me recently are excluded from the competition ... but can have a Virtual Bishie Cookie anyway :D:D:D.

And yes...it is a bit eclectic... and by eclectic I mean - messy ... like my brain at the moment.

Title: Crumbling Down
Author: [info]jlsigman
Rating: G
Word count: 160
Prompt: Final Fantasy VII, Reeve: the fall of Sector 7 – It shouldn't be like this
A/N: Originally due Oct. 16

There was nothing he could do, and that hurt most of all.

Reeve had only heard about the plan to drop the plate a few moments ago, overhearing Reno's voice as they passed in the hallway. For a moment Reeve had frozen in shock, not wanting to believe that something this horrific was anything more than the Turk shooting his mouth off again. Several frantic phone calls soon had him throwing up in his office trash can.

After he washed out his mouth in the bathroom, he went to find a place in the Shinra building where he could watch it happen. That was his penance for not being able to save anyone. So he stood in silence, hands clenched at his sides, tears running into his beard, and watched the plate kill untold thousands of people as it crashed down.

It was then that he decided he hated, and that he had to do something to make it right.

11/17/09 03:18 pm - [info]zehavit_lamasu - How I Know I am a Hopeless Takarazuka Fan #3.

Because I buy overpriced second hand DVDs of Broadway shows I absolutely HATE in the ardent belief that TAKARAZUKA WILL MAKE IT BETTER!!!

... even though I heard nothing but bad things about Tarazuka OKLAHOMA from EVERYONE!



I heard the acting was stilted, that the singing went to pot, that it was just too cheesy (so... ok... with me that one is a GOOD thing :D:D:D) and that Todoroki Yu just lost it...

She may lose it as much as she want as far as I am concerned - All I need is to look at her in profile and NOTHING IN THE WORLD MATTERS ... EVER!!!! *loves*.

And it went cheap as far as Taka-DVDs goes (£40 ... believe it or not is almost half of what I usually pay for the average Taka DVD XD).

And I would have bought it JUST for the postcard that came with it... honest gov' ... I don't REALLY have a thing for Tom with low-slung belt... not me... ^^;;



My name is Lamasu and I am a Takaholic!

11/16/09 07:09 pm - [info]yohjideranged posting in [info]ffvii_100 - Prompt #123

When you get Angeal involved in a prompt, all other teams are shut out! SOLDIER wins this round with 50 points.

This week's prompt is #123 - Afterlife

So, what's it all about, really? Where do we go when we die?

Does Genesis believe that he will be reunited with the Goddess? Is Sephiroth choking the planet? Is the Lifestream all there is or is it just a pit-stop? Is Reno a non-believer? Does Tseng have his own view of the after-world? If people go back to the planet and ShinR is using the planets energy, what happens to the souls of loved ones? Does Rufus even care? Where do beings like Jenova spend their afterlife...in a box?

Whether the afterlife involves angels, a deep dark void, or shiny green fluid stuff, write about it in only 100 words.

I was invited to join [info - livejournal.com] bottom_draco's Fairy Tale fest. The reveals were today and this was my submission. I knew the prompt was left for the squick factor, but I couldn't resist the urge to draw a micro fetish pic.

Dear Santa,

Although I tried to make my prompts relatively thorough on their own, here's a bit more info about my general likes and dislikes. )

11/13/09 06:17 pm - [info]zehavit_lamasu - And this is why I am not on the internet much right now...

Lamasu: Weren't you reading THE LIES OF LOCK LAMORA a couiple of days ago?
Sivan: Yes! I stopped at a particular thrilling part.
Lamasu: Why did you stop then?
Sivan: I discovered your shelf of BL novels.
Lamasu:Hahah! The awesome power of Gay Porn! ^^;;.
Sivan: indeed - Porn has a lot more... more...
Lamasu:?
Sivan: *flails* SEX APPEAL! :D:D:D
Lamasu: ¬_¬.

And she was like that from the age of 12 - I know because I shared a room with the woman in boarding school ... she made me recite all the porn she was reading... MADE ME!!!

Ahem... yeah... ah ... oooh look a... a... THING!... RIGHT THERE BEHIND YOU!!! *hides under sofa*

;_;.

Stormy like WOAH! Carnival tomorrow and apparently it is just going to get worse. It passes just outside our window so I predict we will be upstairs with the Takarazuka, BJDs, Absinthe AND LOTS OF GAY PORN :D:D:D

Woo Hoo!

11/12/09 11:51 am - [info]aikonamika posting in [info]porn_battle - Round Nine Fic Master List

We ended up with a grand total of 57 fics across 41 fandoms (five of which were crossovers). Thank you so much to everyone involved for participating in this round's Porn Battle!

The fics! )

11/11/09 11:01 pm - [info]ponderosa121 - ipa = love

Worked a bit on my Logan/Daken pic. Note to self: please explore range of facial expressions beyond grumpy or snarling. In the middle of said drawing, I may have chugged a Butte Creek IPA, which, if anyone knows my alcohol tolerance means that I have a very slight buzz. Still not as good as a Speakeasy Big Daddy, but yum regardless.

IJ's [info]porn_battle is over and I miss it already. There was a Kadaj/Roy Mustang prompt that seemed terribly shiny until I actually tried writing it and ended up with something that felt like a thinly veiled Envy/Roy. Oops. Eked out a Victor/Logan though, which was nice. Shall get the lot cleaned up and properly posted on my site when I am not slightly tipsy.

Happy to report that I feel caught up on my schoolwork again, in no small part because I got a ton and a half done on my creature modeling today in class. I also managed to resubmit my Yuletide to fix up my offered fandoms and add a couple more. Tomorrow I'll probably write up my Santa letter, although I seem to say mostly the same thing each year. Gwee. Yuletide, it's like the best part of the holiday season next to leftover turkey.

Although I'm not drawing a ton, I find myself missing not having a place to art dump. I realised that with DW's shiny new subscription filters that I could just set up a tag that people can avoid if they want and then I don't have to worry about feeling like I'm spamming everyone with doodles and WIP things. So, fair warning, if you follow me on DW and don't want to see sketches and junk and wip things, you might want to tweak your subscription settings to avoid the art:unfinished tag that I'll be using. I won't be crossposting art dumps to IJ or to my site.

Today's the last day to porn! So let's get it out of our system in a sweaty, heaving, writhing mess of pornification, and enjoy ourselves!

The battle ends tonight at Midnight EST. I'll accept prompts that come in for about half an hour afterward if it's obvious they're timing mistakes, but after that, that's it.

Let's get writing!

I have stealth Takarasienne visiting my town XD.

(you have to scroll down to 12th of October... there are also pictures from the 6ths ... HAHAH! She clearly liked the Glastonbury Tor ^^).

I actually wanted to see something else apart from Lucifer with her... THIS IS A SIGN!

11/9/09 06:35 pm - [info]yohjideranged posting in [info]ffvii_100 - Prompt #122

Last week, SOLDIER proved that they were the masters of bullsh - er, Bulwer-Lytton. They take home the trophy with 20 points. The Turks had a passing familiarity with rambling excuses for 10 points.  Avalanche ran screaming.

This week's prompt is #122 - Angeal Hewley

Get ready for some honor, pride and puppy scoldings in these drabbles! It's Angeal week.

Who is Angeal Hewley? What drew him to SOLDIER? Will he ever get Zack to be less impulsive? How does he relate to his boyhood friend, Genesis? How does he feel about Loveless? What is the long history of his sword? What does he do in his off time?

Drabbles can be from Angeal's point of view or just about him from afar, but they must include Angeal somewhere in just 100 words.

Title: Intro to Advent
Challenge: Bulwer-Lytton

Characters: the shinentai
Team: SOLDIER
Word count: 100


The approaching rumble heralded not thunder but the roaring engines of three high-tech motorcycles ridden by leather-clad beings that were each more and less than human, a portent that would bring in due time a storm far more destructive than any humble thing of nature – which, though humble in that nature holds no arrogance or malice in its destructive power, is mighty nonetheless – or any recognized weapon of man’s imagination, unless that man were of demented foresight and extreme cruelty, which might be the case considering that this whole mess began – and one might presume would eventually end – with Hojo.



Title: Alibi
Challenge: Bulwer-Lytton

Characters: Yuffie
Team: SOLDIER
Word count: 100


“See, I COULDN’T have stolen YOUR materia, I was busy trying to find a safe place to hide the OTHER materia – NOT that I stole that materia either, I found it, lying out in plain sight where ANYONE could have taken it – or tripped right over it – and while I did take THAT materia, I didn’t actually STEAL it, but I DID pick it up, so that’s where I was this morning, when – oh, you lost YOUR materia last night, next to the park … that’s funny, that’s where that other guy left his lying around waiting to trip somebody…”
