It's a contest between two.
"Happy families are all alike, every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way."
-Anna Karenina
It's a statement that I find rather intriguing, it reflects a fascination with the morbid, and something I personally find reflected in my writing habits. It's just so much easier to write unhappy things because there's so many directions one can go with it and so many vague possibilities around the corner, which at the best, can merely end bittersweet. Happy things, while, they can be fun in their own way, generally end with "and they lived happily ever after, The End." And that's nice and all. But misery loves company and I love misery for company. At least when I'm writing. Misery can leave me alone when I'm off doing work.
"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of good fortune must be in want of a wife."
-Pride and Prejudice
To be honest? I just find this line absolutely hilarious. I mean. It's a great example of Austen's social commentary of the times, and it just exudes humor and wit. It's a line that never fails to make me smile and what keeps bringing me back to my now battered and dog-eared little copy. I almost regret giving said copy to a young friend I'm kind of sort of mentoring aaaaa but she should know this wonderful work :V
It's bad enough that I've seeekretly harbored a 5D's x Pride and Prejudice crossover for months that went and a'sploded in my fais last week resultling in me harboring several pictures of Yuusei in a bonnet that are awaiting the time my dad brings my scanner to my dorm room. But now I'm trying to cross it over with a children's classic-The Secret Garden.
If you honestly have no clue what I'm talking about (and you're in America, I don't know how much foreign exposure it's gotten) then you've probably lived under a rock all your life or just don't like reading books. I'll give a brief summary to those who don't know or need a quick refresher.
I'm finally done with the "Gale Siblings" sprites that I promised my brothers a long while back. They were put on hiatus for several months while my laptop with my saved data on it was out of commission, but I've managed to finish the close ups for them today. :D The only relevant reason I'm posting this is because I'm considering a crack roleplay account for us four when the Fangirl plotz comes around. :D
( Cut for sprites. :D )
