It's just one of those mornings

[karanguni]

Where I realise what a ridiculously lucky person I am to have the flisters that I do.

As I sat up yesterday in the ridiculous bowels of the night writing the next bit of nasdack, I read through what ellnyx had written before me and felt truly, truly overwhelmed because Nyx writes so damned good that all I want today is to try to be even half as impact-worthy in my parts. Or to be half as good a friend, especially when it's 1 am on a work night and K is a bad/sad invisible machine. ♥

And that's on top of the wonderful and amazing pere_chan, whom I spoke to over Skype for the first time yesterday. It's one of the best feelings in the world when you pick up the phone (uh, mic), call someone, and feel 0 awkwardness. And then proceed to spend 3 hours talking about either tentacles, race, and how to make Dick not look like a ho. ♥

If the universe had more space/time/spacetime, I'd zoom over and save dnatio_memoriae from drowning in schoolwork, because D, too, is full of :D and does not deserve to be going "AUGH!" Thank you, man, for commenting all the time and taking time out to ask if I'm okay even as the jaws of your proposal yawn wide to swallow you whole.

To shadowwaker, who has been the unfortunate victim of my brainless sickness + 2am brain, thank you for coming out and chatting with me! :D I am notoriously bad at being chatty, but you remind me how much fun it is to step outside of my Circle of Shy (TM). It blows my mind how many languages you speak and how cool it is to just giggle and fangirl over a German Rufus whospeaksreallyfastandamazingly. ♥ And fic! And squishy.

white_jenna talked to and with me way before so many people, and was one of the first to break me into the habit, for which I am eternally grateful. ♥ Hehe, also, you are the bestest person to linkspam squeeish things with, as you amazingly always manage to spread it out to everyone else! :D

regicidaldwarf, I DO LOVE OUR CHAT, and our mumbly ramblings about our daily lives and Who and university and just life. It's something that reminds me how ?!?! lucky I am to be able to flail around with someone so far away. \o ♥

charlie_d_blue, my pimp, my most lovely pimp: without you, I wouldn't have known the joys of flailing in an outright CAPSLOCK flail way. You are exactly my age and it is fucking fantastic because you are awesome, five times more mature than me, have the brains of a GENIUS, and make me want to smile and smile and smile and then write porn. Or watch Leverage. I OWE YOU A CARD.

two_if_by_sea - I know I never quite comment on your posts 0.00005 as much as I should, but let me say that your posts always make me grin and go oooooh over your photographs and the everyday things. :D Your comments and pimping are so \o \o \o that I don't even have words, I must make do with one-armed pictorial flailing. \o \o \o

evercourant, baby, you are so insane that I want to keep you on my shelf and hug you all the time and and and :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD Your mad laughter through fic and my Psychotic Dream Sequences warms my cold, dream-wearied heart.

knightlineninja, I don't know if you're going to read this, BUT I LOVE THE KNIGHT, and hope that work has not swallowed you. TEA! It will be forthcoming!

scheherezhad, I still owe you. *g* You're amazingly generous, thank you so much for doing up the Jaynehat for me - I was just so flabbergasted when you offered, and it sits on my bed, guarding one of my bedposts from the glaring light of day at all times. ♥

aikonamika, seeing your comments always makes me smile. :D In spite of the fics I write sometimes having 0 overlap with the things you're interested in, you're still here, which brings a huge glow to my heart. :D

raikomotomiya, when you commented on Batfic I nearly DIED OF GLEE, and then you you you did fanart and and and it is amazing and I love seeing the snippets and you are SO :D INDUCING, YOU KNOW THAT? :D

deepad, reading your posts always makes me think and be a better person. You're so much more conscious and linked to the world around you than many others, and you're always eloquent in the ways you think and phrase the way you think. ♥ Sometimes it's intimidating, because I feel like I am a lowly brainless ant in comparison, but I still love reading your posts and comments, and learning by proxy how to be more aware, and be more cool about the way different people feel, think and operate. ♥

glass_icarus, YOU ARE SO FULL OF WIN. Thank you so much for guiding my eggchick brain around its flaily university thoughts - without you I'd be a million times as anxious. It is so unbelievably cool to think I'll be able to meet up with you soon, and I look forward to it WITH GREAT ANTICIPATION. Thank you for reading and for commenting on my things, and for articulating the way you did on my thinky-thoughts post in ways I couldn't have ever imagined articulating myself. ♥

guingel, your posts on Bible readings and on your huge amazing life? Always a win. Again, I am a horrible non-commenty-non-commenter, but it's still supremely awesome to go through the flist and see bits about cons and life. ♥ ♥ Plus, having discussions with you always makes me think, for which my rotting brain is ever grateful.

voksen. I JUST CAPSLOCK RIGHT AT YOU. For the commentspam, the BRAINSPAM, the SCHULDIG ICON OF DOOM, and all the back-and-forth and FOOD and mmmmm and here I'm going to just roll around in glee. :D

autumn_belias, dude, you care so much about when I stay up and are always telling me to look after myself - ♥, Sam, seriously. I'm glad that Yuletide stuck us together in the same chat, because elsewise I'd never have an awesome person to flop around with and destroy biology notes with. 8D

mjules, YOU REC THE MOST AMAZING THINGS. Heeee, and and and The Left Hand of Darkness, man. That's enough to make me weep with gratefulness at meeting you in the wide stream of the interwebs.

numinicuous, from the first moment on #yulechat, you have been :D :D :D and so damned smart and woah multitasking, and that has never changed, SO PLEASE NEVER CHANGE. Also, I frequently want to elope with your icons. 8D

sharaith, you come from such a different place and experience than me, and that humbles me so, so much. ♥ I love reading your posts, and am so :D that you find time out to comment on the things I post about. ♥!



*PANTS* Okay, I never quite intended to write such a long list, but NOW THAT I HAVE, I am deathly afraid that I have missed someone out - if I have, HIT ME, because my brain is still operating on a lot of ?????? and and and *flop* I have probably used the word "awesome" and "amazing" too many times today.

But in short - ♥ I look at the people I've met here on this LJ, how different and similar we all are, and it's a moment of gladness: I have lived to see this!

WHEN THERE IS UNDUE SAP AROUND, I TRUST voksen OVER ANY OTHER BRAND TO GET THE STAINS OUT.

[numinicious.livejournal.com]

I SEE YOUR SCHULDIG ICON AND RAISE YOU A FARFARELLO ICON.

[charlie-d-blue.livejournal.com]

ARGH.

*flails everywhere*

You make me smile so hard I feel like my grin is gonna fly off my face and into outerspace, and are so lovely and scary talented that I don't even care that you made me rhyme just there.

...

TWICE.

Boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada, hey!

[karanguni.livejournal.com]

Boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada, hey!

YOU KNOW WHENEVER I SEE THE WORD "BOOM" OR "BLAM" OR ANYTHING EVEN VAGUELY BEAT-SOUNDY, I HEAR YOU SAYING THAT IN MY HEAD OVER AND OVER AND OVER.

♥ BESTEST PIMP.

[glass-icarus.livejournal.com]

&hearts! YOU. *g* aa;sldgkhsd dude, when you get here it will be AWESOME LIKE BURNING!

...... um. let's pretend like that actually made sense.

also i went to our Organization of Pakistani Students' mock wedding today, and DUDE DUDE DUDE you are going to love it SO MUCH. :D :D :D *flails* when you do not hate your exam schedule, that is. >.>

[karanguni.livejournal.com]

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ I am seriously really excited and really comforted and REALLY ANTICIPATING having you around to hold my n00b hand through the streets of New York.

HAHA HOW WAS THE WEDDING OMG OMG OMG. I have lived with bad exam schedules all my life, FOUR MORE WON'T HURT.

[scheherezhad]

♥ I like making things for my flisters like you. You provide such awesome content, and I feel like I just sit around oohing and aahing, occasionally commenting with the approximate intelligence of an unschooled redneck going, "You done made sumpin' purdy!" Handmades are my best way of saying "thanks for being awesome" when I can't do it with fic. :D

[karanguni.livejournal.com]

*EMOTES HEARTS AT YOU* Not redneck! MORE LIKE AWESOME. ♥!

[ellnyx.livejournal.com]

oh squishy. oh squishy. &hearts

I still hold that knowing you makes me want to be a better person. If there is ever an ambassador to quantify human worth needed by an alien race, I hope they choose you cos otherwise we're all going to die. :D

[karanguni.livejournal.com]

HEE.

No, but seriously - I took time to really go through the Tseng/Balthier stuff you'd written and GOOD JESUS LORD, how am I supposed to write Tseng/Rufus bathroom sex that is even an IOTA worth what you've written??? MY HEART ACTUALLY BROKE A COUPLE OF TIMES READING THAT PART OF THE FIC, IE YOUR PART OF THE FIC oh man this is going to rock so hardcore when we post it.

If the alien race has tentacles, man, I'm sending you. You'd show them the proper... appreciation...

[regicidaldwarf.livejournal.com]

I HEART OUR CHAT TOO. AND ALSO I HEART YOU. LIKE A LOT. *squishes*

[karanguni.livejournal.com]

*FLOPS ON YOU AND TRIES TO SLEEP*

[deepad]

You are not a brainless ant, my dear young grasshopper ;)
And I like having you around too for your bubbly enthusiasm and hopefulness, even when I do snap at you. ::hugs::

[karanguni.livejournal.com]

\o\ It takes more than one kind of dumpling to make up a pot! :D 'sides, as long as offense isn't meant to be on the plate, I try not to take it to heart. ♥ *fluffs the Deepa*

[karanguni.livejournal.com]

Daw, and also - taking time to re-read stuff again, and more slowly, at 2 in the afternoon as opposed to to 2 in the morning, I felt I really to have to say that I'm terribly sorry if I've played the hopefulness card to a point where it seems like I'm mandating ignorance. D: If I made you uncomfortable by not speaking out enough or speaking in a very roundabout evasive way that made you feel like I was not doing my part, I really do apologise!

I feel like everything that's been happening recently has been so enormously important and part of something I need to continue to grow up with and to be that sometimes I really am intimidated out of my mind and fail to do anything more than to make hugging motions. Thank you - once more! - for being someone who's helped me open my eyes, and I hope to keep them open and look even further in the future, so as not to disappoint you or anyone else that I may know. ♥

[everysecondtues.livejournal.com]

I would just like to second everything you've said about our overlapping flist. :D

[karanguni.livejournal.com]

D: HOW DID I MISS YOU, omg. ♥ Thank you, too, for being an awesome friend that RBR SPEWED FORTH AND GAVE UNTO ME. The world is not fair in its greatness. ♥ ♥ 8D

[evercourant.livejournal.com]

(LITTLE DOES SHE KNOW THAT WE ARE ALREADY ON HER SHELF. BUT SILENCE, SILENCE! SHE WILL FIND US OUT!)

[karanguni.livejournal.com]

IS IT IN MY POCKET ON OUR SHELF, PRECIOUSSSSSSSSS?

[rekishi]

awwwww K *hugs tight*
and we're so not getting unstuck again ;D

[karanguni.livejournal.com]

Like stubborn, old Oreo cookies? 8D

[dnatio-memoriae.livejournal.com]

If I had a plane, I'd zoom over to sticky tropical Sporeland myself to get away from the yawning pit that is thesisising.

Just so you know, even with the clock of doom ticking away in the background, your post made me smile ^^

Still have so many things I want to draw for you, all queued up *weeps* There may be an artsplosion sometime in the (probably distant) future.

[karanguni.livejournal.com]

♥ Thesising sounds of suck, but YOU WILL SURVIVE. \o

[numinicious.livejournal.com]

:D :D :D

[karanguni.livejournal.com]

8D 8D 8D

[guingel.livejournal.com]

. . . That's gotta be the first time my life was called huge and amazing. Although admittedly the darts thing was pretty much spectacular. XD

[karanguni.livejournal.com]

♥ Hee hee hee. :D

[shadowwaker.livejournal.com]

Awwww. ♥ That's so sweet. (Also, I'm on the fifth place, I've made improvements since last time. Bahahaha.)

I don't know how I pull you out of your Circle of Shy (TM), which I seem to be in myself, but you're welcome. XD; And what is this Skype I hear of? Why wasn't I informed of you having it too? Then you can teach me Mandarin! XD Skype is teh awesome.

German Rufus ♥ If ACC didn't come out on BlueRay disk, I'd wait for the German version to come out, and buy that one instead. (It has multiple audio channels anyway.) Assuming he has the same voice actor of course.


Squishy, squishy, squishy. *dances off* I'll finish it as soon as I feel better. And have time again. _{Maybe next weekend?}

[karanguni.livejournal.com]

SQUISHY HAHAHaljflaskjf oh god going to hell.

[pere-chan.livejournal.com]

It's incredibly difficult not to make Dick look like a ho. He's like the Superhero Village Bicycle. If they had a village.

It was incredibly easy and comfortable to babble with you. Look forward to many repeats ♥ Talking to you is like dining out!

[karanguni.livejournal.com]

I am not sure it is even legal to not make Dick a Ho. It may just be canon!

♥ ♥

[white-jenna.livejournal.com]

:D That was so awesome when you said it got sent back to you. :D
