Man, this reminds me of when I was a kid and wanted to play Oz and be Dorothy but knew my best friend would want to be Dorothy. So I made her read Ozma of Oz and played up how awesome Ozma was to manipulate her into wanting to be Ozma instead. I was such a baby Slytherin.

This!

Was she only flitering you specifically or the whole old fandom? :S Not being funny but maybe you accidentally got put in the ex-fandom filter or something as it sounds odd for her to do that if your last interaction was all happy and stuff. :|

I almost want to say try contacting her but you seem to already have closure and happiness and I don't want you to risk that... hmm.

For a while it works out, but if you're fandom friends for a long time without talking about RL at all it feels really distancing, like you don't know who they are. Especially when you try to initiate talks about RL but they don't ever want to talk about RL. If we only talk about fandom, I just never feel close. :/

....yes but in the final game they didn't even know each other until the point sephiroth snaps and knew about some girl who's carring the white materia...

so this pairing indeed makes....no sense.

no no no no no no no no no

Well, now you're thinking with portals.

So many GIFs to pick from!

... huh. I can't believe that you wouldn't have grits over there, it's basically just the little hard pieces inside corn kernels made into a hot cereal for super poor people!

And I actually did end up making grits. xD

lol I am Chinese and female and feminist and pansexual through and through and I agree with everything this secret says.

Some things that may seem racist or sexist or whatever are not, and, in fact, just are. A character is white? The character happened to be born with the alleles that give them fair skin. Does it have to insinuate some hidden white supremacist agenda? What if Moriarty was black? "omgah they're saying that all black people are violent terrorists!!!"

Some comments above are whining, "oh they make it seem like Chinese people are all criminals and smuggle shit" and later, after someone points out the head smugglers were white, retorts "oh they're saying Chinese people can't even do their own smuggling". Well. Looks like you can't go right anywhere...

I've stopped paying attention to anybody who tries to pull racism/sexism/homophobia/whatever out of the smallest things, because if you apply that to any random scenario, you will see that no matter how it's done, there's always something wrong to be found. What's a person to do, then?

There's a line between actual offensiveness and merely salvaging for something to complain about.

Your icon. <3 It's funny because it's true.

I think I just got a little sick... That's disgusting.

IAWTC. Fellow Caucasian South African here. I definitely think the secret should have been worded better to not come off sounding like OP was generalising all white SAfricans as racist.
I had to read it a few times before I got the actual point. :s

(Anonymous) 2011-03-18 08:06 am (UTC)(link)
yes, epic creepy

[identity profile] u2angel.livejournal.com 2011-03-18 08:24 am (UTC)(link)
I'm with you Anon.

I like Derpy and Luna, but I definitely agree that Luna needs to make more appearances. I've heard the rumors that she will be showing up again soon and I really hope they're true. They could do so many things with this character.

That artwork is beautiful! :D

And word to this. I would have loved some canon Aeris/Sephiroth, even if it would have broken my heart later when he killed her.

And hey, at the very least it would mean more het!fic for Sephiroth, which is something I can always get behind. ^_^

Yay fic recs! Thank you for them, bb. :3

I don't have any fic recs, but I do have an art rec for you! This is from one of my favorite HP fanartists who made me fall in love with the Marauders again:

http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=§ion=&global=1&q=James+Sirius+slash#/d2mpj2i

She mainly does comics, such as this: http://alatariel-amandil.deviantart.com/art/Animagus-Instinct-184135556 It's not particularly J/S centric, but it's worth checking out.

I don't recognise the singer in the secret (possibly because it's not very clear?), but yay non-K/Jpop secret. I haven't listened to the radio for a long time so I don't know most of the new songs, but I'm craving KTV soooooo bad now and this secret is :D.

being too busy to continue interacting with someone =/= abandoning them

Sorry, no, it doesn't work like that. You can have a great reason for doing it, but you are still abandoning them. You made the decision to leave and focus your attention on things other than your friendship. You have abandoned that friendship. That's pretty much the goddamn definition of abandoment. IRL can get in the way, and that makes sense, but you are STILL abandoning that friendship for IRL, even if you were forced against your will to make a choice about which one mattered more. The one you decide to leave behind is the one that you abandoned.

Someone must not know the difference between analogies and logical equivalencies, I guess.
