If I'm Quiet
May. 22nd, 2007 10:40 pmIt's because I can't think of much to say. The days are kind of blending into each other lately. Work wasn't too bad today -- I finished "Stuck With You," my challenge fic for the month, and I'm a few sentences away from a page on "A Note of Madness." *sighs* The universe seems to hate that story -- every time I start building up some steam, something happens.
-TD: Then we'll just have to rectify that, won't we?-
Sweetheart, I'd LOVE to rectify it, but I'm starting to think my part of the rent is a lot more important than I thought. I'll figure out something.
-DW: *finishing a bunny* At least you aren't worried the creativity's being beat out of you any more. This healthy plot bunny population disproves THAT little notion.-
-OD: And you're making quite good progress with one story, at least. *tentacles preen*-
Helps that it's a second draft, but yeah, yay "The Gift and the Curse."
-VD: What about editing?-
-VD2: "Ich Liebe Dich" is doing well on that front, it appears. Holding up the DVD edition, of course.-
I know, I know, but as long as I'm there. Chapter 7 of "V.D." is getting little edits here and there, VampDoc. I might actually consider posting soon.
-VD: *perks up* Oh!-
-HD: *sulks* "Marty In Wonderland" is a lost cause, I assume.-
-DW: *comfortingly* She has a three-day weekend coming up. And it's not like she's off it completely.-
-HD: Even so.-
*shrugs helplessly* I'm just not in the mood!
-HD: Then get in the mood! *leaps from chair* THEY'VE GOT THOSE AMERICAN MCGEE ALICE CUTSCENES ON YOUTUBE -- WATCH THEM!-
O.O!
-Other Docs: O.O-
-HD: . . . That physically HURT to say. *holds stomach*-
-MHG: *quickly pours him a huge cup of tea*-
-HD: *deep breaths, sipping tea* And -- and I'll even -- g-get dressed as Ri-Ri-Ri--
*hugs* You're sweet, but that's not necessary.
-D: You wouldn't have to dress up like him anyway. We can get the real Richard from Inkwell, now that Victoria's offically added it to "our" canon.-
Hey, helps explain where Victor came from.
-TTV: Works for me.-
-VD2: Note to our sponsors -- the Inkwell Bar is the setting of the drabbles88 "Drinking Buddies" (prompt 48, He) and "Mad Scientists and Englishmen in the California Sun" (prompt 84, Pink).-
Yes, thanks VampDoc2. *patpats HatterDoc* Look, why don't you call up your Clara Alice and have some fun, kay?
-HD: *surprised* Really?-
-TD: *also surprised* Wait, if we volunteer for possible humilation, we get sex?-
Good Lord, I feel like a pimp.
-D: *bops TeenDoc lightly on the head* Don't ruin a good thing.-
You guys CAN have the girls over when you want, you know.
-D: Yes, but as it's technically your house, we like to have permission.-
Thanks, but you really don't need it. Not like you do anything else I ask.
-OD: We do plenty! We just refuse to do the stuff you fantasize about us doing.-
Spoilsports. :p
-RPD: *floating about* At least the urge to Sim is coming back. I like this Wood Legacy you're reading.-
Me too, it's hilarious. *regrets once again not making
eurekasims silly*
-RPD: Think of it as good writing practice. I'm more worried this will make you want to do that asylum challenge.-
Welllll. . . .
-RPD: Don't you torture us enough!-
-VD2: Besides, we thought you didn't have enough people!-
Well, as long as I'm tweaking, I might as well go for six. Having seven sims out of my control might drive me over the edge. I'd adjust the bed count accordingly. I just think it would be fun! I have storylines planned out, even.
-DW: Mostly Victor choosing between Emily or Victoria.-
-TTV: *headwall* ARGH! Choose a ship!-
*patpat* Poor baby. It's just -- I like both girls, you obviously care about Victoria, but you seem to have more fun in the Land of the Dead --
-TTV: It's bad enough they caught wind of that "Boy is Mine" video and like to sing it to me.-
LoL, really?
-OD: *tentacles buzz* Kids have video footage.-
LOL. Poor Victor. Go play something mournful on the piano, emo kid.
-TTV: *glare* I was thinking something with forks, actually.-
Piano! Now!
And I guess I should do something writing-wise. Probably end up watching something MST3K or suchlike.
-DW: I see that "sneak into Tekva's canon and torture Marty's snobbish classmates with Mr. B Natural" idea!-
Chill, Forrester won't let me near his movie reels.
