About

Ask me things!

Twenty-something English graduate student in Alaska (ask me about it! I've lived here most of my life, including five years in Barrow, the northernmost community in the US) who seems to be in a holding pattern waiting for life to start--rather, less "waiting" and more "omg so busy I must be out of my miiiiind," repeat ad nauseum. Writer, reader, wannabe novelist, hopeful cynic, traveler (up to 15 countries! *fist pump*), Ravenclaw, Browncoat, Whovian (Ten will always be my Doctor), member of way too many other fandoms, proud geek and gamer girl, etc. (favorites so far include the Mass Effect, Portal, and Fallout series, and Red Dead Redemption). Politically conservative-to-moderate feminist (yes, it's possible). Living with clinical depression since at least 2004. Somewhere around the demisexual end of the asexual spectrum. Possibly a vampire.

You can find me in multiple elsewheres, in varying degrees of regularity: in my writing journal, mostly for fanfic and fanmixes; last.fm; and Twitter (same username for Echo Bazaar, where I misunderstood the character creation for some reason and picked the wrong gender), among others. I'm thestarvelingcat on PSN, which is mostly only relevant if you want to find me in Red Dead Redemption multiplayer, and 100indecisions on Steam, as well as at Playfire.

I also run F Yeah Fireflies and F yeah Raspberries, which are...pretty much what they say on the tin, as well as another one for one of my novels-in-progress, and I co-run the Red Dead Redemption blog the gunslinger's lament.

As previously mentioned: in-progress doll of Wheatley from Blue Sky, with Chell, of course. Currently he’s the head of a Milo Thatch doll poorly attached to the body of a Fashionista Ken or something (it’s jointed, is the point) and a sweater I bought on eBay…I need to find him some jeans, obviously, and I need to repaint his eyes and get/make some glasses. Also he has blue Converse that he’s not wearing here because they showed up after I packed up all my dolls. :(

The Legends of Hyrule by joebot - Sold on May 9th at http://teefury.com http://on.fb.me/IWNWuo

oh noooo
It’s white, even, instead of cream/ivory like most of the other ones, which looks bad on me, and I missed the Buffy and Dr. Horrible ones, and this is really precious and I haven’t bought a shirt in…a little while…?

Gaming Logic

more you tilt your body your character will get away from danger

the louder you yell, the more critical hits you’ll land

when you stand up you can see everyone’s weakspots

when you tilt your head you’ll be able to see more of the area

When you lean forward, you get +30% concentration.

When you use controller 1, it means you’ll win

Throwing yourself bodily to the side helps you avoid obstacles in racing.

Threatening the playable character with physical injury will make platform puzzles easier.

All of these things. All of them.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who does stuff like this. >_<

Reminds me of a much creepier version of Machinarium.

#why is this giving me The Trial feelings it doesn&#8217;t even make sense
Dude we should totally put something like this in our NWN mod. Like, okay, there&#8217;s some courtyard or something in the middle of the city where everyone has to go eventually for a required pilgrimage and inside it looks something like this because it doesn&#8217;t at all exist in the same dimension as the rest of the city, it&#8217;s maybe actually where our eldritch horrors are (while the Court is just sort of&#8230;their point of contact?), and sometimes people make their pilgrimage and don&#8217;t come back and nobody ever talks about it.

…Also, a multiverse of Apertures exists. That is a good thing to know.

Multiverse means askblogs can cross verses.

Importante.

Reunited.

Because this chapter is worth everything.

Worth all the Blue Sky feels.

I swear, I’ve already re-read this story twice and am on a third time reading it, just so I can make it through the hardships and the twists and the wonder that is Blue Sky, and get to the part where Chell and Wheatley can get their happy ending. Long live Blue Sky and waffles, both a part of a balanced breakfast. <3

i love the delicate comte crayon look and the turretsight and the LIGHTING and hands aaahhhhh and how did you draw that floor without going bonkers with all the liiines how
