[babyduckie484]

What awesome has happened for you this week?

I am talking MM, slowtimes, fasttimes, EP,s, tags, And Fic. OR did you make something cool and crafty that counts! I will share in a bit what I did and please do the same.!

I just realized only my millifriends would understand what most of that meant so for that I<3Y guys! *hugs for all*

I have to give a shout out to Once: I've had Mary Margaret for six days as of today. Six. Days. Not even a week. In that time, I've been blown away by the sudden rushing turnout.

1. Emma-mun is the light of my life, and our joint post (which was MM entrance, and did finish yesterday) was surprisingly explosive fun. As was giving the girls a permanent Door, with a fairytale twist.

2. Since the jointer started six days ago, people have fallen out of the woodwork announcing their love for this show and interest in being involved in it in Milliways. There's a plotting community, a comment party, and collection spot for all character test threads. There's the possibility of having ten characters from the cast.


I am truly, deeply in love with all of it. I can't wait to see what the next week brings. (Especially as it will end with the opening of April apps time!) Thank you, one and all.

[happilyneverafter]

I'll get you, my pretty! IF IT'S THE LAST THING I DO.



(♥)

[minkhollow]

Whether I app her or not, if you ever want Snow-Red or MM-Ruby shenanigans, let me know!

[afullmargin]

I have to say, as I future OUaT mun - yeah. This is *awesome* on all accounts.

(And I LOVE what you did with your door.)

[ladysingsthe]

Some of the coolest RP I've done this week is still in progress/a secret, so maybe it can be unveiled NEXT Sunday Indulgences, but for noooow ...

1. WE HAVE A BARBARELLA. CHILDHOOD DREAM REALIZED. (TEENAGEHOOD DREAM, I DID NOT SEE THAT MOVIE WHEN I WAS A CHILD.)

2. I am having way way too much fun with Puck's bet of silence. Some GENUINELY TOUCHING MOMENTS came out of these interactions?? (That is really all on Clay-mun and had nothing to do with me. XD) Expect another EP tonight! While I ... continue to tag up in the first one.

3. Ben Wade and Ava Wilson: a morally ambiguous mutual respect-a-thon.

[swankyfunk]

Clay and Puck <3 <3 <3

[imagemist]

It was awesome. I love serendipity, I truly do. And nothing would have happened without Puck's butterfly, so there ;)

[herdivineshadow]

I made DELICIOUS lemon, basil & garlic chicken. omg. yummy.

I also discovered that if you leave chicken thighs to marinate in the juice of two lemons (and man, that was an unexpected amount of juice), the meat starts to cook in the acidic juice. Aaaaamazing.

[herdivineshadow]

Other than that though.. I got nothing oops.

[hadyougoing]

Chicken + lemon-based marinades = now officially my favorite thing to eat ever in my life. How'd you do it???

[ceitfianna]

I have positive job stuff which makes me so happy.

William's been breaking my heart this week as Dan came back and I wrote a dream OOM that I'm rather proud of. His thread with Mr. Gold is full of great twists and turns.

Charles' latest EP was full of lots of great moments Charles-X especially and the thread with April keeps making me crack up. He met Sam Anders in a really thoughtful and unexpected thread. There have been other great ones as he's so loud and curious but love these.

Dem's happy hour was fun and a great way to celebrate Spring.

I haven't done as much in the sandboxes of late but I must mention two threads. Charles meets Regina with clashing and he meets Red and finds himself in an odd spot.

[afullmargin]

Dem. OMG Dem. I can't even...

[cbucsrule]

Sam & Starbuck meet for the first time. (Still in progress, but yeah.)

[ceitfianna]

That thread is amazing. I'm stalking it as they're just them.

[gavin62truck]

I am forever slowtiming because I'm a boss like that.

But I must say, when Tommy started coming to Milliways, he did not expect to run into so many teenage girls. He's all WTF in my head right now. It's kind of hilarious.

Lois Lane. Clementine Johnson. Even Ellen Park, who isn't really a teenage girl anymore but barely older than his eldest daughter.

THANK GOD FOR BARBARELLA.

Nevertheless, thank you to everyone for bringing out sides of Tommy that I didn't know needed to be written, namely dad!Tommy.

[knightoflight]

I've only stalked your threads (because I am a wuss) but I just wanted to say how amazing your voice is for him.

[minkhollow]

Claudia is properly working on the sound system! Otherwise, I've been rocking some of the OUaT madness; Red is fuuuuuuun. (If I app, it'll probably be pre-canon, and I might wait till after the finale just to see where things are at.)

Less happy news: Mom's uncle was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer... a month ago, I think? He died this morning; he was still aware enough that he told people to take him to hospice.
In the immortal words of Heywood Banks, may you never have a cranky pancreas, guys.

[aaaaaaaagh_sky]

Aw, jeez. My condolences to you and your family....

[ladyoflorien]

HOLY COW, YOU GUYS. This week has been ridiculous amounts of fun. I don't have any links to show for myself, really, because everything I've done has either been in OoM-land, a test thread, or in another game. But I can't even with you people. ♥!

Also, the love meme and the plotting meme still have me in goofy smiles, and so inspired. I'm inspired by every single one of you, all of your enthusiasm, creativity, and brilliance. I can't wait to read some of the things I'm seeing plotted, and I really can't wait to thread with everybody ever.

(Speeeeaking of the plotting meme, I'm just about to scroll through and tag some of you crazy brilliant people. Yep, two days late and a dollar short, as usual.)

In sum: I love you all. You're gorgeous. ♥

[aboutright]

AHAHA, well. Lincoln Lee met April Ludgate, which was awesome.

And then I got enabled like an enabled thing to join the cast of Once Upon a Time with ahuntsman. I'm about to toss a test-post into MM and PFSB so I could get more practice in, and I'm still wondering if I should wait until the season finale as well - just 'cause I want to see how things pan out for him - but there's a fairly good chance I'll be apping him at some point!

[the_fairest]

I will be there, the moment one of those is up and I know where it is! I'm quite excited about all these possibilities, and quite understand about people wanting to see where certain characters are when the finale takes place.

[bbq_platypus]

Some good stuff this weekend, mostly Leela-related.

Leela shoots Bambi's dad. Hilarity and threading (still ongoing) ensues.

She has also tagged Barbarella and Clementine.

Also still ongoing is this McCabe - Wade tag.

Pretty productive weekend, both schoolwork-wise and RP-related-dicking-around-wise.

[bjornwilde]

I brought in Batwoman and immediately created drama! As per my norm the thread is not completed. She also met Demeter in the Spring Happy Hour but that was already mentioned.

Aside from that I pushed a few slowtimes farther along and have plans for EPs next week and started an OOm for 616 Ben which is being a bit awkward. I think I am being intimidated by adding new canon to existing since I usually just adapt existing. This time it is completely, whole cloth, new in the sense that I am making it up as I go along.
And all the love guys...that love meme and plotting DEs were awesome.

I've also spent the day assembling a monolithic wardrobe from Ikea and I am now sore.

[hadyougoing]

"Monolithic wardrobe" is a great phrase. XD Also possibly the name of my new band.

[imagemist]

I've had so much fun this week.

Getting Clay into the bar went swimmingly, and he hasn't hit anybody yet, which is a plus :)

As for Elrond, he and Glorfindel are having a - talk. Of sorts. It's ongoing. And ouch.

[ashen_key]

Not much this week - my life has been devoted to unpacking - but two things are bringing me ALL THE JOY:

Medusa and Rumplestiltskin Mr Gold are...getting along! I HAVE ALL THE DELIGHT. Thread still in progress, BUT ALL THE DELIGHT.

And Yesfir and Ben Wade are reunited :D :D

[notinthebook]

The prospect of Medusa and Mr. Gold getting along is deeply unsettling to me.

Also to Emma.

(But also AWESOME.)

[afullmargin]

OMG you guys. This has been a crazy awesome week that I needed so badly. RL = sucking, so RP = awesome. Honestly.

Michael has been... busy. Between hanging out with teen!Clementine (who he just found out is Clementine after some amusing teasing) and teen!Sam (which is always funny) he's had his share of the underage set. I think. Then, he's also having some slowtime OOM (but not) time with Kate out at the stables where he will be riding a horse for the first time. Yes, our super spy has never ridden a horse. And then there's Emma and Mary Margaret - while he's uncertain of Mary Margaret (having just met her rather innocent seeming, charming self), he's fairly certain that he and Emma are gonna get along very well seeing as how she's sharp enough to ask the right questions and know when to stop asking them. This may or may not be worthy of the raised eyebrows they're getting.

And then there's Gus. Dear, dear Gus. He's had a rather eventful week, what with getting back the Psych door (which is somewhat uncomfortably located in a locker that isn't even anchored to the wall) and hitting on a few of our lovely ladies. He got to have some extra sweet, much needed goodies with Rae (and some tenderness that was very much needed too) and things got a little... unexpectedly awesome with the lovely Goddess Demeter showing the injured pile of awkward a little bit of TLC in a very big (and not safe for young eyes) fashion.

Slowly he's coming out of his awkward little shell and it's gonna be a beautiful thing. All leading into the arc with Shawn & Juliet working behind the scenes to try and land him a girlfriend that isn't a criminal or put off by the fact that he's horribly awkward around women.

AND (yes, there's more!) I've started doing test posts with the Once Upon a Time pup I'm apping for April (one "present" one "past") and am feeling out his voice in preparation and that has been *very* fun.

Will have Henry's journal and app all ready to go by the end of the week also! *squee*

(Okay, I was watching Aquabats with Becky and it got a little crazy - I'll be all right once the *squee* wears off.)

[crabbycustomer]

SO. MANY. GRAPHICS. Which... I can't show anyone yet, because they are for plot purposes. Except this one:

http://i1117.photobucket.com/albums/k586/jaltum2/gricklegrass.png

At the far end of town where the Grickle-grass grows
And the wind smells slow-and-sour where it blows
and no birds ever sing excepting old crows....
is the Street of the Lifted Lorax.

Which is related but not spoilery for anything. Just.. compare to this page from Karkat's introduction in canon:

http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=003904

Aaaaand possibly the next:

http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=003905

(The last seed. It's in his fist.)

[waddledoodles]

I

kind of want Suess!Karkat to be a Thing.

Even if the entire book would've been written in all caps.

[knightoflight]

I just want to say, because it really has been the best thing of my week, how friendly you guys are and how encouraging people were on my last CR post. I'm trying to move out there and get braver to get some CR, because OMG you guys are all so awesome. ;_; So I'm getting braver and tagging in to stuff and squeeeeeee. :D

Clementine is awesome and OMG Barbarella. Just...*unseemly flail*.

Also here is a picture of one of my cats. He thinks he is the sexiest cat ever. Don't ruin it for him.

[babyduckie484]

KITTY! i would never ruin it but i want to pet him

[waddledoodles]

I didn't get anything Mways related done because all my life energy was drained by being work's cleaning lady without a sufficiently restful day off. D:

But!

I did buy two black, short-sleeved polo shirts yesterday (which is awesome because my store is fsking hot and you try dragging around heavy floor mats and cleaning dishes next to a machine pumping out 180 degree water in a turtleneck fffwwaagh), oh and a pizza stone.

And having fun on the keys as usual.

[hey35andholding]

CLEMENTINE'S TENDING ALL OF IT. SHE'S TAKING A TRANSFORMER TO BRANSON GUYS.

[gavin62truck]

LACK OF DERMAL PLATING FTW
