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.

…Calli, I think maybe we should also start a Tumblr for our theoretical game.

#why is this giving me The Trial feelings it doesn’t even make sense
Dude we should totally put something like this in our NWN mod. Like, okay, there’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’t at all exist in the same dimension as the rest of the city, it’s maybe actually where our eldritch horrors are (while the Court is just sort of…their point of contact?), and sometimes people make their pilgrimage and don’t come back and nobody ever talks about it.

i went down to the crossroad
fell down on my knees

red right hand | nick cave & the bad seeds (+)
on a gathering storm comes a tall handsome man
in a dusty black coat with a red right hand

golden and green | the builders & the butchers (+)
bring me a cup of your tears
and give me the rest of your years

the devil’s feet | azure ray (+)
as darkness sets in unavoidable sin
the truth i try not to believe
that i reached - i reached -
through the rain to the devil’s feet

a good idea at the time | ok go (+)
now it’s true about my wealth, true about my taste
but you don’t need no help from me, you’ll lay yourself to waste

seven devils | florence + the machine (+)
and it’s an even sum
it’s a melody
it’s a final cry
it’s a symphony

eyes on fire | blue foundation (+)
i’m taking it slow, feeding my flame
shuffling the cards of your game
and just in time, in the right place
suddenly i will play my ace

in the devil’s territory | sufjan stevens (+)
we stayed a long, long time
but i’m not afraid to die
to see you, to meet you
to see you at last

SO THIS IS TOTALLY BRILLIANT
