Ramblings on moving, settling in, but mostly RP. Did you expect any different? XD;
So I have a bit of a backlog of memes, let's take care of that first.
Leave me a comment and I will give you a letter. Then, write 10 things that you love starting with that letter. Post the list in your journal. Give out letters to your commenters in return.

cherryfox told me to do "N," so here it is (in no particular order XD)
1. Neko! =^..^=/ nyaaaaan
2. Noodles (of many varieties)
3. Naps (which is funny because I used to hate them and then I went to college >.>; )
4. Nihon/Nihongo/Nihonbunka (Japan/Japanese/Japanese culture, this is self-explanatory past the translation right >.>)
5. NINJAS (BOOYAH)
6. Night-time (I love being able to stay up late if I can sleep in man. Luuuv it.)
7. Northwest, as in Pacific (I wouldn't want to live anywhere else)
8. Novels! (though cheating here because you know, I don't love -every- novel >.>)
9. "Naze?" (yup, I mean the word. It's one of my favorite Japanese words. Why? Just cause. Plus, what kid doesn't remember asking "why" all the freaking time? XD)
10. Ninja in the Night (Lol, this is the name of a drink a friend of mine created and it's still one of my favorite alocholic beverages. Chocolate mouse, raspberry and alcohol, what is not to love there?)
I feel like I was really stretching on some of these and it literally took me DAYS to fill the list, but I guess I like what ended up on there. XD I really wanted to use "nerd" but I actually see myself and most my friends as more "geeks" than nerds, so I didn't put it.
Leave me a comment and I'll respond by asking you five questions so I can get to know you better. Update your journal with the answers to the questions. Include this explanation in the post and offer to ask other people questions.
Questions fromember_donovan:
1. If you could be any animal for a day, what would you be and why? Ooh, this is actually a toss up. I love foxes and would totally love to be one for a day as they are adorable and always such tricksters in mythology and it'd just be fun, but dude... to be a dolphin for a day? Are you kidding me? How kick ass would that be? They look like they are always playing and they're smart and live amongst friends and family! So either of those would be good.
2. What constitutes a really good day for you? Hmmm. Huh. XD; I've never really thought about that. It would have to involve getting to sleep in some though usually, though too late and I feel like I squandered part of the day away (though I'll still sleep in far too late knowing that >.>). And usually it is nice if Marina has the day off too and we can go do something or just hang out together. Either that or a day where I'm not exhausted and actually have *gasp* motivation to do things and get to be productive. I always feel good days that happens. They are far too rare.
3. What is your favorite food and can you cook it? I have a lot of different favorite foods, but the truth of the matter is if it didn't come from a box or cooks in a microwave I likely can't cook it >.> Luckily Marina's a bit better than I am though. XD; But my favorite food overall is different kinds of rice. So I CAN technically cook white rice XD; And rice-mixes like Rice-A-Roni. Does that count? ^^;;
4. What 2 things can you talk about forever and not get bored of? Roleplay, definitely is the top of that list. Which is odd because outside of Marina I don't talk about it with a whole lot of other people in depth (perhaps this is why I'm such a terrible conversationalist?). Annnd probably Japanese culture/traditions/history/language in general because I'm really interested in it and can actually... like think of things to say and remember shit I've learned in that area (apart from language of courseohIfailasalinguisticsmajorJapaneseminorSOHARD).
5. Do you like coffee? Icky icky icky! No. Tea for me please. Or if I really need waking up? Red Bull >D
Questions fromlilac_breeze
1) I'm asking everyone this because I'm curious. Where did Yuri/Yuriko come from? Yuri/Yuriko means Lily or Lily-child and I used it for my Sailormoon OC from waaay back... Yeaaaaah XD;; It's kind of stuck around though cause I do love lilies and like the name anyhow. And can never think of what to change my online name to if I were to change it. *shrugs*
2) What was your first fandom love? Ahahaha, that would have to be Fiore from the Sailormoon R movie or Zelgadiss from Slayers. XD Tamahome from Fushigi Yuugi was way back then too, but those two stick out to me as being the earliest.What the hell, self? Do I have a thing for weird skin colors or what? >.>
3) Super strength or the ability to go invisible - which do you pick, and why? I think invisibility, but I'm not sure why. I guess I just have no real desire to be super strong? XD; Plus being able to make oneself invisible could be VERY handy at times I would imagine.
NEED TO ANSWER THIS ONE STILL! 4) What fictional character(s) do you feel you can relate to the most?
5)I hope this isn't too personal and if it is you don't have to answer. How did you and Mari meet? Silly, that's not too personal! We met in highschool. Over Sailormoon trading cards. I shit you not. XD I saw her and a couple of our other friends pouring over this binder of cards in the library and came over to investigate. Looked at the cards for a moment and then promptly asked who the boyish chick and green-skinned guy were (Haruka and Fiore respectively). How freaking geeky is that, huh?
Okay, did my memes. And I am alive as I mentioned previously. A little less "kinda" than before even. XD It's just been insane with the heat and working and moving and now with settling. I mean, craaaaaazy. But hopefully I can get back into some sense of routine. Get back to the RP with everyone (not just Kuro >.>), settle into the new RP, maybe draw a little eventually? I've been dying to draw for sooo long now but always keep myself due to knowing there are other things I should be doing first/instead. SOON, damnit, SOON! Oh yes and there are a ton of characters I want to musebox. Used some spare brain power while moving/packing to think up usernames for them and snag 'em, though I still have a few left to think of. Pretty pleased with some of them. Now I have to set up the journals and actually... use them. Test the boys out.Go figure, all boys again. Huh. But on that list are Black*Star, Shiba Reiichirou (Zombie-Loan), Itsuki Koizumi, Roy Mustang and Kouno Tohru (Princess Princess) and one of the kirin from Twelve Kingdoms, but I'm not sure what one yet XD; Probably Taiki unless the third (and last T.T) translated book has more on one of the other two I'm thinking of (Keiki and Enki) since you get the most development and insight to Taiki in the first three books. Plus he's just so gosh-darn adorable! yumesan, now that I've gotten to read the book he's in, you were just perfect as him at Mukashi, seriously ♥
SO, speaking of MUSEBOXES! I kind of realized I don't know who all has them and what ones people wouldn't mind my watching and poking them in? So if anyone here has a musebox that they wouldn't mind my playing with their characters, link me pretty please? And anyone is free to poke any of my characters! I'm not sure how it works at most, but I'm going to put up general posts for them all once I'm finished setting up the new ones so anyone can poke them at random and then you know, do random situation posts from time to time. Edit: Helps to link my own, doesn't it? Screwed Up Little Box XD Shared betweenkaitou_marina and I.
And in other RP news, LOVING playing Ashura at QV though playing him in an AU setting right off the bat makes me a little nervous, but only a little. Seriously. XD And must go breathe life into ME by throwing myself back in there to play with everyone. o.0 Dude where the hell has everyone been (that hasn't dropped T.T)? I know tons of people were on hiatus, me included, but maaaaaaaaan. Hopefully some people start to filter back soon.
Hmm, how's life been, you ask? Stop rambling about RP, you say? Well I kind of said already, didn't I XP~ I'm just hoping to settle down and get back to this stuff I won't stop going on about. And maybe have time to draw. And read manga. And watch anime. Both of which I'm sooooorely behind on. (At least we finally finished Endless Eight XD; Lol, Kyon, you suck ♥ )
And hey maybe even play a game or two from time to time.
Man I want my freetime back, moving! *shakes fist at it* CURSE YOU. At least it's a house~ (even if that means having to paint stuff... gaaaaaaaaah @.@)
On another completely random note, I want to go through and take out/add some icons again. Un!
