Been a bit busy lately, and, well, when I wasn't I was a bit depressed. Sorry for my lack of commenting, i need to catch up with lots of thing (not least of them
schemingreader's Snarry...)
Last week-end, the one before I meant, I went to see Cyrano de Bergerac at the Comédie Française. Now in case you don't know, that's one of my favourite play, and it was gorgeously played. And it was free for Bastille Day.
After that there were Fireworks enjoying which was fun with a background of Mozart. My friend was happy because they played Deus Irae XD
This week end, I went to cut my hair. Well, I don't have any webcam anyway so you're not likely to see the difference.
I also went to see Tsotsi which was rather good.
I'll do a book post later when I finish reading Ian McDonald River of Gods (which is currently blowing me away)
I'm now 2,300 words into the NarcissaxPercy (which still doesn't have a title though), in parts thanks to
crazylittleme ♥
Though I wish inspiration didn't strike between midnight and 1 am when I need to sleep because i have work on the morrow.
Speaking of
crazlittleme, thanks to her I downloaded a small dozens of different version of Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah which is, well, one of my favourite song ever, and the one that I can always apply to whatever is my OTP of the moment, from SeishirouxSubaru to SnapexLupin going through GeraldxDamien (I'm not sure how much it says about me, my OTPs, or my conception of love)
In the meanwhile : I wrote a drabble :
Blood is thicker
BellatrixxAndromeda
200 words
warnings for blood-ness and Bellatrix-ness

I have been completely lax on commenting on people's entries lately too. I am sure everyone goes through that. It's good to hear from you, though. ^_^

Date: 25 July 2006 07:36 am (UTC)I know of those I especially liked the Alisson Crowe version and the one by Aroof something ?
lol about your sister. Does she sing very well ?
no subject
Date: 25 July 2006 07:45 am (UTC)And my sister... she is one of the best singers I have ever heard... and I am not just saying that because I love her, hee. But she sings constantly. Which gets old. It drives my mother crazy. I miss it sometimes since I don't live with her anymore, but I have her mediablog, and I can still listen to her sing... so that's all right. hee
Shave too?
Date: 25 July 2006 07:26 am (UTC)I have read the book and seen it as a movie. A stage presentation would be interesting. there are a lot of things I would like to see how they would pull off.
So, who did you give your braided hair to? Or was it less dramatic? :p
Re: Shave too?
Date: 25 July 2006 07:34 am (UTC)the movie really wasn't bad, despite Depardieu. I was very glad to see a stage representation ^^
I gave my hair to the trash, as a symbolic proof of my love XD

Date: 25 July 2006 09:03 am (UTC)Not into the fandom at all (in fact I don't even know the characters - Only about 1½ book into Potter), but that is one well made drabble.
You have a way with words that makes me quite jealous.
Re: Shave too?
Date: 25 July 2006 10:26 am (UTC)Thank you ! I'm glad you found it enjoyable even though you're not in that fandom.
Say, was there ever, beyond Exalted, a fandom you would like to read fics for ?
Re: Shave too?
Date: 25 July 2006 11:24 am (UTC)I read tons of stuff. Those with expressive characters whom I do not have to read 40.000 pages beforehand to understand are the best.
A few of the more prominent themes would be.
Kung fu novellas and shortstories, both by Chinese and by properly talented gwailo. These are usually entertaining and surprisingly juicy.
Eroticism. Don't tell me you are surprised, every girl gotta sin once in a while. For fun and profit. ^^
Classics and related. Lost track of the number of variations and tiny added stories of the Illiad and Odysse I have read.
But no real fixed fandoms.
