Boredom leads to memes

[brigdh]

Oh, I'm bored. And now one is commenting to me mainly because I'm not posting, I'm aware, but hey, I reserve the right to complain. What are you all doing that's been keeping you away from the internet?

And I suppose I could do a meme, too. So, tell me a story you think I'd never write, and I'll write a snippet. Though only a small snippet; I haven't been writing much lately, and if I promise drabbles, I'd never finish.

24 hours!

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Wait, oh no, have we been counting days differently? My flight's on Tuesday!

[rm.livejournal.com]

OMG, we totally have.
Hahahahaahah.
eek.

I feel silly. Well, see you Tuesday! waaaah.

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'm so sorry. That is waaaah-worthy.

[rm.livejournal.com]

Not your fault. Will have the place nicer for you anyway and will be well-rested, thus allowing me to pamper you. I am aflutter.

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Hee. Well, I suppose I can't complain about that.

[rm.livejournal.com]

Nooooo. You should tell me what you'd like available in the house for your arrival, since one tends to need all sors of random things post-flight.

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

I can't think of anything, except maybe food, as I'm usually hungry after flying. But I can feed myself. Um, maybe just space to dump my things.

[rm.livejournal.com]

We'll find a place for stuff since I'll have time to get my stuff back in some semblance of order (I ripped it apart in packing). Type of food request? Other than chocolat?

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Heh. My packing tends to cause similar disaster areas. It's strange- you'd think taking things away would result in a cleaner room, but no. Um, any food in particular. Hard to guess what I'll feel like days ahead of time.

[rm.livejournal.com]

Oui. You can also always call en route.

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Good point. But I do hate to make you buy stuff; I can just grab something on the way.

[rm.livejournal.com]

Shhhhhhh.
You pamper me. I pamper you.

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Well, alright.

[rm.livejournal.com]

*bows*

[mistressrenet.livejournal.com]

Nii/Sanzo.

And I've been trying to write original stuff. Hahah.

[ranalore.livejournal.com]

The only things I can think of that you'd never write are things I wouldn't want to see. And I've been on the internet. Also, writing porn. Also, pruning roses. Also, sick.

Did you see the pimp comment I did to anenko about my girls? Watching their vids might help pass the time. Just sayin'. *whistles innocently*

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

That is the problem with this meme, isn't it? But no worries, I haven't really been online that much myself lately. I saw you finished a draft of the roses! Congrats. I'm looking forward to reading it.

No, I didn't. I did watch the video that inspired the latest story about them, and really enjoyed it. Link me?

[ranalore.livejournal.com]

Well, I gotta add some to the draft, because I cheated a bit. But hey, I'm sick. I'm allowed to slack a little before it goes into the sub process.

Man, I love that video so much. I think I'll upload the avi for you and anenko so you can see the expressions and how pretty the girls are. The comment is here (http://ranalore.livejournal.com/263290.html?thread=1624698#t1624698).

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Hee, true. And besides, it's only a first draft. Just finishing it is an accomplishment, as far as I'm concerned.

Thanks! That's a very helpful pimp. And I'd love an .avi, if you don't mind.

[ranalore.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I keep reminding myself it's the fourth story in a year, when last year I had none, and the year before only one. Doesn't stop the overachiever part of my brain protesting that I should be doing at least one a month, though. It panics at my lack of backlog. @@

Avi (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ZEPAMD4U), just for you. Well, and anenko. *G*

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Ee, thank you! Wow, they really are gorgeous, in the higher-quality file. I mean, not that they're not pretty anyway, but it's nice to see them in so much detail. I've been watching some of the other videos you've linked to, and I think this one is my favorite, too. Though I also really like the first version of Boomerang.

[ranalore.livejournal.com]

Aren't they? *G* The aesthete in me is pleased. Also, while I think it's still the first version that came out, that "Boomerang" is apparently the Japanese version. So, retooling, yes, but not to the point of making two Korean vids. I have the Korean vid in avi format. Once I get the Japanase version (which I understand will be coming eventually), I'll send it your way.

Oh! Did I link to "Sweet Flower" in that comment? Speaking of original projects, that's where I pulled a certain screen cap for a certain icon for a certain character's mom. *G*

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Ah, I see. That does make more sense than releasing a single twice to the same audience, at least.

You didn't, but I found it on youtube. So pretty!

[ranalore.livejournal.com]

I told anenko that, and then thought, "Wait. That can't be right. Gotta be a different language market version." And so it was.

I have a making of thing for that video. Untranslated, but still fun. *G* I prefer "Juicy Love" as a song, but I thought the girls looked phenomenal in "Sweet Flower."

And somebody's gonna have to go, so I have more room for icons of the girls.

I feel your pain. I have similar issues: No posts equals no comments. But I can't post, because everything I have in the queue is long and thinky and I don't have time for any of it because of work panic. And yet, one misses comments! Why do people not read what passes for my mind, and comment on the posts I haven't made?

Hmmm. Stories you will never write, but that you might find appealing . . . Okay. How about the one where Alec inherits the duchy, and Richard has no problem at all with it?
