Devious Journal Entry

Fri Dec 7, 2007, 2:38 PM
No one reads over here, lolz. I've had seventeen page views since I joined. Probably because I don't publish. And I ought not to publish, really.
But... hi.

All comic drawing has been cancelled. Fan fiction has been in the pipeline, and I've gotta get my project for the GyakuSai Secret Santa on LJ finished. Once that's done I can do all the creepy stuff I've been wanting to work on. My GyakuSai Secret Santa project is decidedly non-creepy, which is good.
I tried to avoid getting the creepy stuff because I figured I would end up having to make it sexy for my giftee's sake, when I'd only be able to write it as squick. I was working on Karma/Gregory and crushed it beneath my heel because it was like The Prestige with sex and we all know Gregory dies, so there was no fun in displaying rivalry. If I'd tried to write it through Karma rather than Gregory I could have done it, but that man's soul is a wasteland.
I still think the first section of it (not posted) is salvageable as a one-shit. I think I'm going to call it "Turnabout: Mindscrew" or something cliche, b/c it's Gregory messing with Karma's mind, but then Karma hits right back and poor Gregory's brain explodes. Lol... yeah. Once I'm finished with my Christmas present, I'll finish that.

This is my permanent top entry, because I'm like that.
I cannot believe that as soon as I sat down to fill in my profile I forgot everything anime-related. Oooops. I'm here to lurk, and maybe post drawings once I have them produced. Always want to draw comics but never do it.
I like bizarrerie and villains a lot of the time, despite a deep respect for the Straight and Normal. I think that latter is why I like stuff like AzuDai and Haruhi Suzumiya, and why I like Dutch painting. It's about the everyday, in its own odd way. But the good everyday - the moments that make you value your existence and want to pass it on in hordes of children, and somehow outweigh (at least for me) the shit moments when you start to wonder how to get hold of a doomsday device.

But, once my practice time is over, in the pipeline:

1) Two-page comic spread that's been itching my mind for years, but I haven't taken any time to work on it. One-shot about a boy fighting in the Sacred Heart Rebellion in 1790s France. It's got a "Samurai Warriors 2 ending" quality of story, but I'm just wanting to get my poor Nicolas's last act of devotion on paper and out of my brain.*
ETA 10.10.07: Progress: Layout 80% finished. Anticipate it being done, except for coloring, by December. Coloring will be done at a later date, as I'm painting the background in.

2) GyakuSai one-shot comics. Length TBD, because all I know is I want to do them. Mostly gen-ish, occasionally shippy (though in most cases you'd have to squint). Prefer Miles and the von Karmas, though also just like lawyers in general.

I think I'm one of the few people who finds KaruMitsu relevant to her interests that doesn't actually *like* the idea of the pairing existing. It's like, I like Miles, I like his new family, I'm interested in the structure of their relationships, which may well include KaruMitsu, but any way I look at it which would make any kind of sense, it's abuse. In a way, it's an OTP, but it's not something I could ever squee over. Rather, it's an "I think this is what happened, and that's just how it is" OTP. Just because something is true doesn't mean you have to like it.
* I think I stuck around the series after the first look because 1) Miles was pretty, and 2) My dad's a lawyer. I think I'm still around despite not having a DS until the end of '07 because Manfred von Karma is SO DAMN HOT.

And that's all I can think of coming down. If you want to know anything else, ask.
