oh, the joys of being a procrastinating lazy writer

GUYS, YOU GOTTA PERSUADE ME OUT OF THIS. OR AT LEAST HELP ME PICK ONE OVER THE OTHER. Because I have two story ideas picking on me at once. The problem is:[Poll #1787541]
But yeah, if anyone wants more details on either of them I can totally give more info. Although I have the feeling the majority of you would vote for Scenario 1 since most of you are friends with me though YGO. STILL. I NEED DIRECTION.

START ALL THE FICS, FINISH NOTHING! :D :D :D

I don't know, it seems to work for me. XD

you know, I've never asked you (mostly because I think last time it came up those episodes didn't exist yet). Does Pearson get to live in the Maryrverse? I think Pearson should get to live in the Martyrverse...... disregard me, I have a one track mind about everything :x

GODDAMMIT, IMMI, I'D ACTUALLY LIKE TO FINISH SOMETHING FOR ONCE.

you know what, I have no freaking idea. And I have no clue how he would be alive if he was alive in the Martyrverse. Season three doesn't even factor into it. Haslkdfjdsf. I guess technically he is...not. ;-;

SO WOULD I SOMEDAY. I DON'T THINK IT'S MEANT TO BE THOUGH. XD (I used to finish fanfic. Like, you know, ten years ago or something. I don't know what happened.)

*SAD* Pearson and Bolger will never get their happy ending. It is a universal constant. ;-;

Sorry, I don't have a lot of input as to which you should write, since I'm not familiar with 5D's (which I assume this is from?) THOUGH I WATCHED EPISODE 1 TODAY W00T but

ANOTHER FIC WRITER WHO ACTUALLY WRITES DUELS? *high five!!!*

[identity profile] northwind-gale.livejournal.com 2011-10-18 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Well I've never written a duel before, but I've roleplayed a few. Made a few mistakes, but those were an on-the-spot duel. Planning it out should be fine.

Anyways, the one pack that I need in WC 2011 is the Pulse of Trishula pack which has to be unlocked by dueling everyone in Story Mode, apparently...but I already did that. So I assume I'm supposed to duel everyone THREE TIMES EACH. 8V So until I do that and mess around with a deck, I'm not sure how far I'd get into the duels =w=;;

Do you duel at all irl?

I've been writing down part of the Duelist Kingdom arc in novel format (though I haven't picked at that project in a loooong time...orz) and it's fun to try to fix up the canon duels so they actually fit the rules and make more sense haha.

And, if I may ask, what video game are you playing? O.O

[identity profile] northwind-gale.livejournal.com 2011-10-18 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I live under my parents' roof, and they won't give me money to spend on anything other than school, so I only duel via any video games I can get my hands on, whether ROM or real life copy. Right now I'm playing World Championship 2011.

Also, rewriting the canon duels = WIN. Seriously, I'd love to see that.

l-lol...if I ever publish them (kind of doubtful, but possible I guess?) you'll definitely see them. I could always send them to you, but I want to get back to it, do some editing, maybe reformatting, and decide whether I'm going to continue the project. Maybe I'll spend some time on it once the Twilight Princess multichapter fic I'm on right now runs its course.

re: your above comment: My parents are similar; they still help me out with food and necessities, and pay part of my tuition/room/board expenses (I'm taking out loans for the rest...) but I also have a 10 hour/week job which is awesome (not the job, the job is boring, but having one is awesome, you know what I mean) and even though it largely goes to books, random expenses, and putting gas in the car, I do set aside money to spend for myself, and most of that goes into buying cards (and things like sleeves and deck boxes and local tournament fees). I really adore this game, its my hobby and a way for me to relax and socialize and do something I really enjoy that isn't the Internet so it's very much worth the cost. =3

wow that was really tl;dr

short version: jobs rock and so does YGO

Also appropriate icon is appropriate (a monster from my favorite deck!! ^.^)

(Aw yeahh, Fortune Ladies!) Well, I'll be looking forward to it, hee. :3 I have two part time jobs too, but all that goes to college expenses because I don't really go out at all, sob.

Fortune Ladies rock, I just finished putting the deck together the other day. (I've dueled with FL before, used to use my ex's deck, and since the break up I've been really wanting one of my own.) Needs some tweaking, but I love it! LET ME TELL YOU THOSE LADIES ARE FIERCE. XD It's my favorite archetype.
