"I Cannot Say that I am Surprised..."

[psalm_onethirtyone]

*gabbles incoherently*

RUSALKA. OMG. PYETR. SASHA. afajklfjaklfjalsk! PYETR'S SENSE OF HUMOUR. Daughters = damned mushrooms. Also, I cannot pronounce Uulamets, so I keep calling him Umlaut--I'm sure that's a bad thing. akfljalsfjasld SASHA AKLFJASKLDFJASLDKS. Sasha and his magic and his leaving things out and OMGGGGG PYETR IS TOTALLY FALLING FOR EVESHKA. >_> Heeeee. And Pyetr's sense of humour = ♥! This bears saying twice. Guh. Squee. Flail.

...

I LOVE THIS BOOK.

...in other news, my nose is swelled up and I'm having trouble breathing. We don't know why.

(Also: Nana and I sat out on the porch and sang Oh You Beautiful Doll while Granddad danced. It was fantastic.)

Do not suffocate...!

Um... What book is this? ^^;;;;

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

I'm trying not to! I think something bit me, weird as that sounds. ^^

Rusalka! ^__^ By c.j. cherryh.

[elyse24601.livejournal.com]

What book is this?

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Rusalka! :D

[elyse24601.livejournal.com]

Hm, I shall have to look it up!

Er, speaking of things to read, whatever happened to the Gawain chapter of Catchecism? Will it be posted soon?

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

It's great! Definitely look it up.

It r heer (http://rainbowjehan.livejournal.com/764784.html#cutid1). And the next chapter is being beta-read even as we speak.

[elyse24601.livejournal.com]

I r totally unobservant. *headdesk*

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Eh, it's not like I publicise it. ^^ But there you are! A whole new chapter!

[tiamatschild.livejournal.com]

It is a GREAT book! And Pyetr falling for 'Veshka is SO ill advised, and Sasha and Pyetr are SO CUTE together and it cracks me up that Sasha's speech patterns are all gendered weird. (He talks like a girl!)

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

IT IS OMG. I am dying of squee over here. And, my god, it is, I'm waiting for Sasha to FREAK OUT at him, and omg they are, they should, I don't know, fight crime together, or possibly just wander the Russian countryside being ridiculously adorable and guh and squee and omg. And really? XD

[tiamatschild.livejournal.com]

It takes Sasha FOREVER to get snippy about the situation - which is classic Sasha, he doesn't freak too good. And they should fight crime! Supernatural crime! This is why I have a noir au for them. :D And he so, so does. Notice the way he tends to qualify his statements and is extremely diffident.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Eeeee. He, seriously, he's a love. And omg, that would be wonderful! ...It needs to happy. You need to write it if you haven't already. --oh, man, Sasha. ♥

[tiamatschild.livejournal.com]

He is, he's such a sweetheart. I should bring my version out more. :D I haven't really written it - it's really, really, really au, and features Sasha The Former Soviet Partisan who kind of got himself exiled to the US and is superstious as anything in a very amusingly devoted communist sort of way, which Pyetr, who doesn't have Sasha's ideological convictions or his firm belief in old beliefs, thinks is totally insane.

('veshka's the daughter of a very cranky former mentor of Sasha's - I think, I haven't totally worked out that relationship - who gets herself mixed up in the mob.)

It's all late forties dirty city, fish out of water Sasha stuff.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Yes, you should...! Mary would like to see him. If she openposted, would he maybe reply? --Well you should write it dammit. Omg, it--I need it. It will improve my quality of life vastly.

[tiamatschild.livejournal.com]

Sure he would! I'm not being totally devoured by life anymore. :D

Oh, I do intend to. ...Really, it's terribly close to having the serial numbers filed off of it. Just the basic character dynamics remain.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

You have no idea how glad I am to hear it. ^____^ I missed you.

GLEE.

[tiamatschild.livejournal.com]

:D I'm so glad to not be totally busy anymore. I missed you too!

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

There (http://sixpearls.livejournal.com/1428.html), you awful, wonderful person. *sticksto*

[tiamatschild.livejournal.com]

*snuggles!*

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

...I am horrible but can Gawain poke Gaheris? Because they've almost never interacted and I am awful. >_>

[tiamatschild.livejournal.com]

You're right, they haven't, and no, you're not. :P

Sure, I can do that!

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

You are so awesome to me. ^^;;;

[mhari.livejournal.com]

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I win.

Is not Pyetr wonderfully snarky and impossible? Oh kids, kids kids kids.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Evil. >_>

He is, he's horrible. I absolutely love him the end.

[mhari.livejournal.com]

Hee hee hee.

How far have you got?

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

*facepalm*

I'm almost done with the first book? And pretty much gleeing constantly.

[mhari.livejournal.com]

Muahahahaha!

Will you be on tonight?

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

XD

Maybe?

[mhari.livejournal.com]

I miss youuuuuuuuu. D:

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

I don't feel really good. ;__;

[mhari.livejournal.com]

If you're well enough to be on the computer, you're well enough to talk to me. *poke*

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Not--physically. Inside. I feel all sad and cold and hardened up.

[mhari.livejournal.com]

I still want to talk to youuuuuu. ;____;

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

You really don't, not when I'm like this.

[mhari.livejournal.com]

Yes, I do. We've been over this. Don't make me telephone you.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

You don't need to! I'm just saying, I'm not good right now.

[mhari.livejournal.com]

I don't care if you're good. I don't care if you're pleasant or witty or cheerful. I care that you're Soujin and I haven't talked to you in DAYS, okay?

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

I just don't think we should talk if it's just you having to deal with me. It's not fair to you always to have to be handling me.

[mhari.livejournal.com]

Sweetheart? Shut up. I'm really tired of that line of reasoning. If you don't feel like talking to me, that's fine, and you can say so. It's no more selfish than refusing to talk to me because you think you know what's best for me.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Okay. I'm cold and I don't want to talk to anyone.
