Was up 'til five working on my Cid/Vin fic - it's rather unnerving to see that I'm writing it. But I like it so far, so we'll see how it turns out. I think it's going to turn out to be rather long, but given that one of the biggest problems with most fics I read is that they're too damn short to work, that only makes sense.

Have hauled all my clothing out of my room. Am beginning the slow, tedious process of sorting: what goes, what stays with Brandie, what goes into the trash. You can't really see the living room couch anymore, it's rather amusing.

Want to work on fic. Must pack.

packing sucks. I hate packing.

I have to do it this evening. And I'm starting with fanfic first. easy. either trash or with me. Clothes will be next, and then books. It's depressing to pack your stuff away like that, isn't it?

There is little worse than an empty room.

It's rather depressing, yes.

well.. I've been talking to my mom.. I think I've bought you an extra 1/2 day to pack. I think what I'm going to do is leave at about 10 or 11, get about 1/2 to 3/4 of the way grab a room for the night and get to your place sunday morning/afternoon. and then we can take our time on the way back :) Is that ok with you? To quote my mom "your father would be doing cartwheels right now to know you are thinking about that.. I told him not to tell you you can't go down because I know that's the first thing you'll do" ;)

bwahaha, so your father really doesn't know much about any of this then..^^

and besides, she can just write fic and relax, and make you pack when you get there.

dude, I'm evil but I'm not that evil. There's no way in hell I'd make her pack for me. I'll have you know I've about 1/3 done now. So there!

Just finished sorting all my clothes. And now I've got friends coming over to say goodbye tonight so I have no choice but to finish.

Sounds like a good idea, though I still feel bad you're going through all this.

Well that was uncalled for.

*grin* was it?

If it was then I'm sorry. But you said the "I feel bad" thing... It's habit now.. *hangs head and slinks away*

It's the first time I've seen the kids do anything besides sit on the sofa and watch TV. They're acutally working to get your room ready. We can't wait!!

It's hard to feel bad when everyone seems so excited. I can't wait! Just a couple more days! I'm paranoid it won't go well, even though I know it probably will. Nargh, I'm just stalling on packing.

See you soon!

Yay! Cid/Vin fic! :waves little 'Go!' flag:

I'm with you, that most of the Cid/Vin fics out there don't work well. My personal beef with most of them is the weepy!uke!Vincent, the oh!woe!is!me!Vincent that seems to have propagated in fandom. And I did the same thing that you did with a lot of my pairings: I wrote them because I knew that the pairing, when written right, could really work well....

Heh, speak of the devil. You would be the only one beyond the doujin I have that is on my approve list. Which is unsurprising. We'll see if I can hold my own.

#o____o# Aw, thanks. ^___^ It's always nice to know that I succeeded in doing what I wanted to in that story. I look back at it now and see things that I want to change, and can't quite tell if they ruin it or not....

Everyone looks back at their stories and goes "Hmm, that could used fixed." I don't think we'd be writers if we didn't. But I do enjoy your story, luckily I'm shooting for something different or I'd feel there was no need to write.

And I'm glad I'm not the only one that writes b/c there's a lack of good stories around - my sister keeps laughing at me.

I'm glad you like it. :) And I know what you mean about sometimes feeling no need to write a story that's already done it so well. There's a few FFX stories dealing with Auron and Braska that I would write, but they've already been written so well by someone else that I wouldn't even attempt it.

And I'm glad I'm not the only one that writes b/c there's a lack of good stories around - my sister keeps laughing at me.
:laughs: No, you're definitely not the only one. I write just because I feel that the characters deserve better than some of the schlock out there....

<3!!

Packing? Oh, yes, packing! I do wish you the best of luck. Do you think you'll find some hidden treasures? I know I always find things that I didn't know I actually owned. =)

The entire picture is here:

Though I still thank your icon rocks - him saying "rata TA TA" will never be unfunny.

And yes, I'm finding quite a bit that I didn't know I had.

*.* Oooh! Those are some mighty fine men! (Why do all the "men"--term used loosely here--in my life wind up to be goobers and noodles? I swear, some days it feels like I should join a convent. Although I think I'd look snazzy in those old, long habits.)

him saying "rata TA TA" will never be unfunny.

Ain't it the truth though, ain't it the truth. (If I could, I would have an animated icon for the whole homo no jutsu and wait! I haven't shown you harem no homo no jutsu!)


So, how goeth the treasure hunt?
