Now that I'm in multiple fandoms (come on with that album already, MCR), and I know that a lot of you guys are in multiple fandoms too, so! I am curious. What fandoms are you in, flist? I've listed the ones I'm in (or near), but there's also an "other" box for stuff I'm not a part of. This is mostly so I know who to flail about what to! Because I like flailing, but I don't want to spoil anybody, or talk to someone about something they hate or know nothing about.

[Poll #1605160]

I want MCR to get off their asses and tell us things (seriously, I would be happy with knowing the date we would find out the release date, at this point!), but in the meantime, my new Inception and Adam/Tommy obsessions are keeping me QUITE OCCUPIED. So, what can I flail at you about? :D

hahahaaaa

I have a LotR book 6 test to take today and I'm only in chapter 1. >.< But anyway, it got me thinking about invisibility. This is such a random question omg. But pls to be humouring me?

Harry's Invisibility Cloak - This makes a ton of sense to me. It's a cloak that makes everything under it, no matter what it is, invisible. So, if you're too tall, your feet will show. If you pick up something and put it underneath, it too will be invisible. However, what about when it's just lying around? I don't get that. Shouldn't it be invisible all the time? Like, when Harry folds it up and puts it away and stuff?

The One Ring - This does not make sense to me at all. It makes the wearer invisible, right? But it also makes their clothes invisible, and stuff their holding (Frodo's sword, Sam's pack, etc.). But... it doesn't just make everything the invisible person touches invisible, does it? I mean, if Frodo picked up a rock while he was invisible, would it disappear too? And to further this, if the Ring turns everything the wearer touches invisible, why don't the floor of buildings and the rocks he climbs over disappear?

Personal Powers - This makes more sense, I think. Because usually it's just the person going invisible, not their clothes or things they touch. But this does have the problem of stripping down every time the person goes invisible. And I haven't seen Fantastic Four, but didn't the girl like, get a suit that went invisible too? or something? I wanna see that movie. and the sequel that's coming out soon. lol

So I guess my question is this: where does invisibility end? Is it just an arbitrary line drawn in the sand? "Everything up to this point can disappear, but nothing else"?

Therefore, a poll.

[Poll #986653]

DISCUSS.


ps: FotR tomorrow omgyay!! I don't know why I'm so excited, because I literally just watched it on TV, but YAY ANYWAY.

pps: I still have Charlie's Death Anthem (aka Run) on repeat. *sniff*

ppps: Apparently I am becoming obsessed with italics. *giggles*

am posting quite a lot, aren't i? but nothing of real substance, unfortunately. lol

1) i have a question. does anybody have "God Only Knows" by the Beach Boys? thank you, [livejournal.com profile] giddy_london!!

2) actually i have 2 questions. next quarter i have to start a foreign language. i'm having trouble deciding between italian and german. HELP ME!! both are 5-day-a-week classes, so i can't really get out of that. i love italian, and i've taken latin before, and i AM italian, and my aunt speaks it fluently, so those are all good things. but i also love german. my mom has taken german (but she says she forgot it all), and i know of a few people taking german (whereas nobody i know is taking italian), plus, of course, dom knows german (and i'd be lying if i said i didn't think about that). both aren't really 'useful' unless i visit italy or germany, so there's no real pros or cons there. but i just CAN'T DECIDE! so i have a poll. i can't say for sure whether i will go with the outcome of this poll, but i like polls and i wanna know what you think, so here ya go.

And speaking of RunAway: for those of you on my f-list that read the fic, or just lurkers or whatever, I have a poll for you.

The info:

In my outline, I have it written out that two major events have to happen in this next chapter. So far, I've written only one of these events, which equals about half the chapter. Now, I can either post this as it is and leave this other event for a second chapter (meaning: you get the chapter very soon, but only half of it according to my plan), OR, I can keep working on this chapter until it's finished to my outline's standards (meaning: more waiting. sorry. >.<).

Another thing to consider: if I post this half-chapter now, I will probably not write a mostly-unnecessary chapter at the end. 1) because it honestly doesn't further the story much at all, 2) because I have no idea how to approach it, and 3) because it would probably put me over 60 chapters, and yes, I really am that neruotic. Even numbers are the best, people.

[Poll #947772]

please please please give me your opinions and input. seriously. also, feel free to ask any questions and for clarification or whatever. or just comment. because I love comments like I love all of you. ♥

Nobody voted for this, because it does seem like something I would do, doesn't it? *g*

I once kissed a guy directly after he'd kissed a friend of mine.

True, actually. As slutty as that sounds. He wasn't a good kisser, though, so it was completely worthless and mostly disgusting. >.< Tiff, you voted for this one; dunno if you've met him, but it was me, Auggie, and Erin.

I'm currently lusting over a happily married man who's about fifteen years older than I am.

I'm not sure whether to be surprised that nobody voted for this or not...

I've acted in a play.

hee!! This one's true. It was a long time ago, but it did happen. And if I could get over my stage-fright, I imagine I'd be an alright actress. :P

I once kissed a guy called Josh while Michael Kaeshammer was practicing onstage before his concert .

This is the lie. It's very close to the truth, but it didn't actually happen. Unfortunately. >.< I almost almost almost kissed him, but didn't at the last second. Stupid me.

I listened to Sexie today, and now I understand why everyone's so crazy about Eddie Izzard. ♥ Nearly made me snort my drink out of my nose. LOL!

[Poll #874827]

those options make me sound kind of sluttish. LOL! I'm not really. Only in my mind. *giggles* Aaaaanyway, the dog trial today was close to hell, except frozen over. My dilemma: my fingers get very cold, but if I wear gloves, I can't use the cameras. People suggested fingerless gloves. But then, the part of my hand that's cold doesn't get any of the warmth. >.< *loves the handwarmer thingies* Anyway, my sis got a few ribbons and is very excited, this being Daz's first trial and all. So we went out for dinner and both my mom and my dad had a couple margaritas, so I had to drive home. At least there isn't really any ice on the roads yet...

Oh, speaking of ice, my sis and my dad went skiing on Thanksgiving, then we had Chinese food for dinner (ahahaha, no turkey feast!) and afterward we went to see Casino Royale. BUT, my point in telling you this story is this: my fortune cookie says "Good news will come to you from far away." So, somebody on my flist who lives far away, give me good news. Anything, as long as it's good. I want my fortune to come true. LOL

I know there was something else I wanted to say, but (as seems common with me) now I've forgotten. >.<

besides that, I'm very very sorry about not posting chapters this last week. I just got too busy to finish writing them, let alone post them. But next week I should have an extra one or two to make up for the delay.

oh, in regards to the poll/quiz: I'll post the correct answers after the weekend. :D
silentdescant: (thinking)
yeah, so this is to find out if I'm being too annoying. >.<

Okay, so I've made the Character Mood Chart for RunAway. I really love that I made it because now at least I know exactly whats coming up. I took some time and planned out the rest of the story, so that's nice. It should be a bit easier to write now. But anyway, the graphs are cool, but they didn't quite turn out how I expected. I might work on it a bit until it looks more like what I had in mind, but what I had in mind might not be possible. Actually, it's probably better this way, it's just not what I drew on a piece of paper.

Spoliers
for RunAway beneath this cut if you haven't read it or aren't caught up!

the graph )



So, that was long and rambling. I'll try my hand at a poll to gauge everyone's reactions to it. Apparantly, livejournal doesn't like me making polls. It's out to get me. And I haven't a clue as to why it decided on a gray background right there. >.<

So, instead of a poll (because polls obviously hate me), tell me your reactions in comments. Did you like the graph? Was it interesting or helpful to you? Was it too confusing? Should I change the colors to make it easier to read? Should I make one updated for each new chapter? Should I make one for every few chapters? Not make new ones at all? And finally, any suggestions for anything RunAway-involved? (don't say make the chapters longer, because I'm about to do that.)  :D
