New Post

SO.. I return. It's been awhile, I can't believe it's been so long since my last entry, time always flies by so damn fast this time of year.

Work and family health issues have cropped up since last entry, but those are always things best kept private, and not expounded upon at length. I have recently had it pointed out to me that I don't seem real because I lack any kind of real life posts, but... honestly;... I rarely want my personal thoughts on real-life things to be up for dissection. Really saves me the trouble of my perspective offending somebody (as it usually always does).......

Anyway:

<3

Firstly, I have holiday cards drawn and little gifts ready and sparkly~*~*~*, but I just haven't gotten the chance to pack and mail them OTL;;!! *fails* I'll definitely be getting everything out once Canada Post opens up again (fffuck;), so.. just know... I'm so sorry if I told you I was sending something and you didn't get it. Nobody has gotten anything yet from me <_>;;;

Much love to jiyoon, _anatra_, and glayish this year ;_;! So lucky to have such amazing friends like you <3!! My whole Holiday Gift list got filled just by them alone. So SO much love. Can't wait to work on more Nyotalia North Italy and Gohan wig over the break!!!

<3

DTAC (December Toronto Anime Con) happened, and DBTrio attended like we have almost every year since Hobby Star started it. The Saturday before, _anatra_, glayish, jiyoon and I got together downtown with the intent of getting more photographs of our Gakuen Hetalia Axis Powers cosplays (originally worn at Anime Central 2011)!

We missed getting the photos that day though, because of intense hunger winning out XD;;
Ate lots and hung out and had lots of fun together. Next morning we got up really early and threw on Gakuen outfits to grab photos before DTAC. We ran over to the U of T campus and jiyoon snapped some shots of all three of us together!

THOSE PANTS!!!! OTL. It was FREEZING COLD outside, but we can finally not wear these unflattering plaid pants ever again. My wig is fried beyond anything. I can't even count the number of times I've worn it. Italy is officially my most worn character/costume. I haven't even worn Gohan that much OTL XD;;

Anyway, directly after that we all changed into Yu-Gi-Oh! for the con itself. I wore Yugi, glayish wore Joey, and _anatra_ wore Kaiba.

Here's a pic SutekiGo took of us!



Still waiting to get the pics off _anatra_'s cam for edit... what few photos we actually DID get, that is. The MTCC security were full of shit. Even just last year the event wasn't run so awfully. There have been many accurate rants already written about the crap that went on at DTAC, so I'll leave out my own rant. But honestly the only things that made it worth getting into costume and going were meeting up with SutekiGo's Erin, Lindy, and Lisa, as well as Andrew and Jess who we met earlier this year at MTAC.

We all left the con and had a great time hanging out together at Jack Astor's then later at Tim Horton's until after midnight XD.

Can't wait for our Silent Restricted Section party. Which, will need to be planned asap. *gets on it!*


In fandom news, I've totally gone on a Star Trek binge. The J.J. Abrams reboot got a sequel greenlit and it should be something epic. At least, y'know, I want it to be...

The first one was awesome (cause seriously budget and effects like THAT on a Trek movie?? Hell yes!), but it was definitely not completely Trek. I'm looking, hopefully, for a return of Star Trek's penchant for politically and socially forward storylines, as well as that hardcore sci-fi (topped off with some existentialism)! (Some true Kirk/Spock relationship would be nice too come on, that's the original SLASH. The one that started it all., though Shatner and Nimoy (Shatnoy) did it best)

I never fully appreciated the movie fandom (other than puella_nerdii and mithrigil's hot and intelligent Kirk/Spock fic)... but by now there's a whole lot to look at @_@!



FanFiction Recs
Reviving Methuselah by kyliselle (PG-13) [Romance; Angst; H/C]
Kirk/Spock!Prime. A very old and lonely man. And a young and lonely man. We put on a pretty poor show, didn't we? - Kirk to Spock, Requiem for Methuselah. A story set in San Francisco; after the defeat of Nero, but before the Enterprise once again took flight.

All Our Tomorrows by kyliselle (PG) [UST]
TOS. Immediately follows the episode All Our Yesterdays.

How High the Moon by kyliselle (NC-17) [Romance; Angst; H/C] [~38,500K]
After the destruction of Vulcan, Spock shielded his mind to protect it from his broken bond with T'Pring. Little did he know another bond had already formed in its place. A fill for a prompt for soulbonding.

Cut and Fucking Paste by crimsonclad (PG-13)
STR Genre: "ack the mindmeld gave me feeeeeeelings"

Edit by crimsonclad (PG-13)
STR Genre: "ack the mindmeld gave me feeeeeeelings". Sequel to "Cut and Fucking Paste"

Asymptote by tahariel
Subversion of the "aliens made them do it" trope. Aliens forbid any touching, which drives home for Spock just how much Kirk touches him--and how much he misses it.

The Ending Has Not Yet Been Written by corpus_invictus
Notes: Written for the Star Trek XI Kink Meme prompt found here: "Everything is changing, my friends are leaving, and I'm feeling alone and left behind. So what I want is for this to happen to the Enterprise. Their mission is over, and they are *all* being reassigned. Everyone else should be sort of sad, but excited too, because they are going on to bigger, better, newer things. And one person isn't. Maybe at the end someone stays, and there is wonderful, I-love-you-and-cannot-leave-sex, or maybe (even better), there is sad, this-is-the-last-time sex."

Textual Attraction by lalazee
Valentine’s Day does not bring up pleasant memories for Cadet Kirk. But the serendipitous switch-up of his cell phone with a particular Vulcan professor’s will make his day far more interesting –and romantic. Perhaps some new memories can be made!

Through Chekov's Eyes by littlebirdtold
Summary: In which Mr. Spock hates Chekov and terrorizes the crew, Captain Kirk has the best poker face on the ship, Chekov never means to eavesdrop, Uhura gets some curves, Kirk gets cock-blocked, Spock gets off, McCoy pulls rank, Spock pulls Kirk's pigtails, and love sucks.
