Absence, and a meme kind of thing!

First, the boring part:
I'm posting this now, because I know people are going away to - somewhere, where was it again? Ehh, I'm sure it doesn't matter - but I'm going off on vacation. I'll be leaving this Saturday and I'll be back the Saturday after that, and in between I'm unlikely to have any internet. So if you need me or V for anything, it'll have to be done tonight or tomorrow.

(Because I have a party on Friday, if you're trying to do that math.)


Now the more interesting part!:
When I'm on vacation I'm going to be doodling a lot, since that's... what I do. But I thought I'd make it interesting. I'd like people to suggest random Milliways moments for me to recreate in doodle form.

I have no idea how well this'll work, but this is eight days with my family, so I'm willing to give anything a shot. Big moments, little moments, whatever, and it doesn't have to be characters that I'm familiar with.

A description of the thread or moment works, though a link directly to it would be icing.

I'll scan the ones I've done (and I'll try to do all of them) when I get back.

Sooo... have at! Okay! I'm officially gone! Thanks for your suggestions, guys, and I'll see you all in a week!

... hee!

Can you draw a cushion duel?

(Atton and Wes! Duelling with cushions! ... Because fully-grown pilots always act like five year olds!)

Bwahahah. :D I can definitely draw a cushion duel.

I have a couple, both rather selfish, but hey.

First: Wiggin/Skywalker wedding (http://community.livejournal.com/milliways_bar/4223667.html) I can't remember if it says in there, but the groom was in Jedi robes, and the groomspeople in brown robes. I'm an idiot and forgot to put that in.

Second: Mark Cohen with rocks in (http://community.livejournal.com/milliways_bar/10591803.html).

Thanks, I'd be happy to offer you any sort of fic you'd like in return, if you'd like. :) I have -no- art abilities.
watching_you: (Extra points for sass)

[personal profile] watching_you 2006-07-13 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
Psssha! Nothing wrong with being selfish.

And I'm not going to ask for anything, really! You guys are keeping me entertained while I'm in the middle of nowhere. So don't feel obliged or anything.

Angel and his collection of ellipses making a cameo in the Mark With Rocks In picture would be awesome.
Otherwise... I'll have to root through things.

[personal profile] watching_you 2006-07-13 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
Can do. :D

[identity profile] precocioustilda.livejournal.com 2006-07-13 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm.

Any part of Tilda listening to Wash tell stories (http://community.livejournal.com/milliways_bar/13319381.html?thread=549693909#t549693909) would be greatly appreciated and highly adorable.

Alternately, Tilda and Harold comforting Sad!Bar (with added avians!) (http://community.livejournal.com/milliways_bar/13350853.html?thread=550987973#t550987973) is also highly adorable and, who knows, might be easier to draw.

I'll make an open-ended doodle offer in return, but I can't promise I'm any good as an artist. Lively stick figures are usually my best.
watching_you: (These things you used to love)

[personal profile] watching_you 2006-07-13 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
Hee! Both excellent moments.

Well like I said above, having stuff to do all week is return enough for me. So don't feel obliged or anything.

[identity profile] precocioustilda.livejournal.com 2006-07-13 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
^_^

I woulda linked to the Tilda-Atton shrug contest, but a) I can't find it and b) I don't think it'd draw well.

I don't exactly feel obliged, but you're welcome to ask for return doodles! It'll give me a chance to practice those lively stick figures.
watching_you: (Devious)

[personal profile] watching_you 2006-07-13 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I'm already thinking that this one will have to be some kind of short comic thing. Sooo, if it's that kind of thing...

And and... *flails!* Well, give me a minute to think of something!

[identity profile] precocioustilda.livejournal.com 2006-07-13 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
It's more along the lines of the fact that two people shrugging at each other repeatedly isn't that comedic until you read the narration.

And, and... Take all the flailing time you like! :D My stick figures are lively in a very patient fashion.

[identity profile] simple-secret.livejournal.com 2006-07-13 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
OH OH OH!

DO THIS ONE! (http://community.livejournal.com/milliways_bar/5504958.html?thread=226991038#t226991038)

WITH THE SEUSSTROCITY!


(you could also draw Faramir if you felt like it. the world can never have enough Faramir. ^^)
watching_you: (V explains it to you)

[personal profile] watching_you 2006-07-13 12:27 am (UTC)(link)
More specific! I'm not just going to do LOTR fanart. Make it Milliways-related! :P

[identity profile] simple-secret.livejournal.com 2006-07-13 12:30 am (UTC)(link)
Heh. Do the Seusstrosity then. ^^ I can't think of any really drawable Faramir scenes that wouldn't come off looking like LotR fanart anyway.
watching_you: (Red sweater)

[personal profile] watching_you 2006-07-13 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
Fair enough. :)

[identity profile] fighter--pilot.livejournal.com 2006-07-13 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
ooooh. Can you do Shalla-Puck (http://community.livejournal.com/milliways_bar/13602084.html?thread=559840292#t559840292) with her head in his lap?

And if you could be persuaded to do two: Shalla-Boba (http://community.livejournal.com/milliways_bar/13529650.html?thread=556820530#t556820530) fight?
watching_you: (What fourth wall?)

[personal profile] watching_you 2006-07-13 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
We'll see how many I get, but it's entirely possible that I might do both.
watching_you: ([with mac] chillaxin')

[personal profile] watching_you 2006-07-13 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
Mmmmm yes. Excellent. :D

[identity profile] nepheliad.livejournal.com 2006-07-13 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
There is a sideconversation between Random and Havelock (http://oneman-onevote.livejournal.com/4268.html) that leads to the best thing ever (http://community.livejournal.com/waysofantar/6452.html?thread=499764#t499764) at Max and Faith's wedding.

A two-panel picture of JOY.
watching_you: (Never have I ever)

[personal profile] watching_you 2006-07-13 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
Hahahaha! Yeah, this'll have to be some kind of short comic, or something. Hmm.

You are way too kind for even offering.

I bring you choice!

Mal telling Inara he has feelings for her out by the lake, or Mal, Lilly, Wash, Tequila and Limbo.
watching_you: (Shock)

[personal profile] watching_you 2006-07-13 01:09 am (UTC)(link)
:O

Choices, choices!

Ahem (http://community.livejournal.com/milliways_bar/9090741.html?thread=378735285#t378735285).

... not totally selfish, is it? ;) I really just want to see Hey Jude being sung with enthusiasm.
watching_you: (Giddy!)

[personal profile] watching_you 2006-07-13 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
*dies laughing*

Ohhh my god. I think both I and V had forgotten that one.

[identity profile] buriedmybrother.livejournal.com 2006-07-13 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
Um ... it might be kind of tricky, but maybe some part of River and Antigone, Objects in Space-style (http://community.livejournal.com/milliways_bar/13595398.html?thread=559384838#t559384838)?

With bonus Charles Wallace!
watching_you: (Cheeeeese!)

[personal profile] watching_you 2006-07-13 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
:O!!

...I'll have to bring my tablet.

But this should be fun.

Oh, man. Can you draw Raven glittering Discworld's Death?

Because I would DIE.

Also, Ako perched on Ed-the-shark's nose (with kissing!) because MORE DYING!

[personal profile] necessary_child 2006-07-13 07:49 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, man. Choices. Erm... Sunny prettifying Aslan 'Esuspuppy?

And, erm... Mike and Sam, involving the devil with pink crayons and chocolate milkshake on his nose? I'd suggest the Sam-Tilda cutebattle instead, but that was all in the narration and I have no idea how you'd draw that. *has tried* Butsomeone besides me has to have to done Sam!fanart...

Anyway, you so rock for doing this.

Something from the post-Osrics triumphant return thread would be cool. Particularly from Faith's subthread (I don't think she was actually blue at the time, it's just retconned icons or something), but I'm not picky. XD
(...Also I've been up since five AM. I think it shows.)

*shifty look* Angelina Johnson and Harry Dresden being... erm... interupted, shall we say, by Harry's brother, Thomas Raith.

*sneaking in quietly*

Steph and Zuko first meeting? And, y'know, getting along so well. With the firey burney and Cera breaking up the fight and everything.

*sneaks out, also quietly.*
