Pic for Mistress of Foxes, announcement

[soc_puppet]

First things first. mistressoffoxes, your surprise (from way back in December/January ^^a) is finished!



...Wow, that's teeny-tiny. You can barely make out the three figures in the middle D: (Ahaha, my OT3 snuck in ^^; Sorry? I tried to distract it with other characters, but it didn't work that well.) I had no idea Photobucket would shrink it that much. Maybe I can mail you a better copy?

Alternately, possibly someone out there could help me figure out my blasted LJ image gallery. Pleeeaaase? *sprakley eyes*

Anyway, that would be the Kingdom Hearts music box. Wanted to work with the concept of the key blade being the usual key size and opening something like a box or a chest but not going so far as to crossover with the Indian in the Cupboard universe. Original idea was to put it in a fic, have it act like Pandora's box or somesuch. I never really got around to writing it; no real ideas for it, I suppose. Just the opening of the cupboard or whatever and the Heartless being unleashed, and then this nice little open ending that I'm fine with but other people might object to D:

Wanted to have Donald and Goofy as part of the turney thing in the middle in addition to Riku, Sora and Kairi, but I couldn't figure out a way to get the top to balance that way. It was easier to draw this way, too, but I don't know that I like it this simple. There really should be something or someone on the other side of them, but I can't figure out what. *sigh* Someday I just know I'll figure out the perfect idea. Sadly, that day is not today.

On a semi-related note, am I the only one who wants a KH shadow plushie to squeeze and hug and cuddle and call my own? I'm not even sure they exist and I want one. They would be so cute!

Anyway, I said 'announcement,' didn't I? Well, here it is:

I finally heard that Crawling in my Skin thing today :D

...That so deserves its own announcement. Really.

Okay, you know how I kinda went nuts laughing over how the original Bad Moon Rising sounded after hearing the Rasputina version for so long? I kinda did the same thing over this. I can't help it! I expected it to be so much more... droning, I guess. I dunno. And I didn't expect to like it, either. WTF, brain. I am not an emo kid! So it turned out hilarious to me. Which was bad, because I was getting a ride home from a friend at the time and didn't want to distract him from the road. And then there's that whole "how the hell do I explain this?" aspect of it. Even I'm not completely certain why I find it so funny, though I'm sure it has a lot to do with CFUD.

Yeah, so, that's it for now. I'm thinking I should try homework next, followed closely by sleep. (youji_yola, your pic is next in line for drawing! Unless I get distracted (again). *knocks on wood* Though so far I seem to be shifting to my 'default' drawing from behind pose for it =_= You know, slight angle to the left, profile shot of head, left leg sorta bent at the knee. I need to break away from that, start drawing things better. Problem is, it's hard to draw Naruto wearing black lacy lingerie and still make him look manly D: I'll figure out a way eventually, I suppose.)

Wow, even though I haven't really played the first Kingdom Hearts, I still like the little black things and the cute figurines on the music box. Also like the little portraits of Goofy, Donald and Mickey on underside of the lid.

And those little black thingies are pretty cute, too bad even ebay doesn't have anything other than a figurine.

Well, you don't really have to draw that. ^-^U I was kinda just joking, except not, because I think it would be funny if Naruto in CFUD got stuck in that for a while. After all, he didn't knock on wood. And don't worry about making him look girly, I make him girly like 80% of the time cause I lose. D:

[soc_puppet]

Thank you ^_^ I took a really long time on this picture, trying to get everything right, so I'm glad it turned out well.

Woe am I D: I may have to actually make one...

I still want to, though :D And it would be an awesome form of enabling. Anyway, the really easy way out would to just do Sexy-no-Jutsu with lingerie, but I want crossdressing, gosh darn it! Anyway, if I don't challenge myself, my art will never evolve and get better. So, it's time to attempt to draw a manly, cross-dressing (and still sexually appealing) Naruto for me! *determined face*

Mof in da HOUSE! I have internet again XD

[mistressoffoxes.livejournal.com]

Very beautiful, Neechan! And if it's possible, I would love it if you mailed a bigger version to me. I love noticing small details, and it's pretty hard with that picture ^^;

-and no, you're not the only one. Personally, I think the Shadows are the cutest things ever :3

The fic idea sounds interesting. Are you sure you don't want to write it sometime? I'm not sure you could make an ending I would object to ^.~

Love it lots, thank you Neechan! <3

And there was very much rejoicing :3

[soc_puppet]

Which sort of mail would you prefer to get it in? Real (physical) mail, or e-mail?

I might be the only one who wants to cuddle a shadow plushie and a moogle plushie at the same time, though.

And now the plunnies start to gnaw. I may yet give it a shot, when I figure things out.

You're welcome, Imoutochan ^__^

*bows* Thank you, thank you, we'll be here for a long time

[mistressoffoxes.livejournal.com]

If I could make you send it in physical mail, I would frame it and hang it in the wall. Seriously <3

*raises hand* If I could get both a moogle and a shadow plushie, I would cuddle both of them forever and ever.

\o/

[soc_puppet]

Can do ^_^ I hope you don't mind if it's folded, though I can probably go for one of those big envelopes if you'd prefer.

I just think they'd look really, really cute together. *will not fic this, will not fic this, will not fic this...*

[mistressoffoxes.livejournal.com]

No folds, please? Unless it would be much more expensive, of course.
Can I take a fic request in return?

A moogle and a shadow *pictures*...

GAH! The cute! go for it >D

[soc_puppet]

It shouldn't be too bad ^_^ I hope you can live with a copy rather than the original.
Oooo... *ponders* Can I get some xxxHolic, perhaps?

Isn't it, though? I'm afraid my answer will have to be "we'll see". Have stuff to finish for Lurker Day, after all...

[mistressoffoxes.livejournal.com]

I can live with a copy ^.^ I understand that you might not want to part with the original :3

Ah, sorry, I don't know that series ^^;
Something else, please? ^^;a

"We'll see" is a good enough answer. It's just my duty to egg you on if the plunnies bit >3

[soc_puppet]

Yeah, I do like to hang on to the original copies of most of my stuff. 'Specially when I spend more than a few hours on 'em, as is the case with this.

I thought that might be the case. We must fix this somehow, though. Hmmm... *ponders* Okay, I'm pretty sure you know KKM? If you do, Conrad and Wolfram bondageing :DDD Or possibly the next visit of the BearBees. If not, then... Hmmm. Kingdom Hearts/Bleach x-over?

It is at that ;)

[soc_puppet]

...Er, it is your job, not "we'll see" is a good enough answer. Because sometimes it isn't.

[mistressoffoxes.livejournal.com]

I would LOVE to write you something from Kyou Kara Maou. I've been waiting for an opportunity to work with the characters and lets face it; I like writing bonding scenes. I think I can work the visit of the BearBees into this as well... Hmm... *ponders*

I'll see if I can work on it today, as my mother is trying to keep me in bed because I have a mild cold, but still bad enough for me to look horrible >.>

I'm not writing the Bleach/Kingdom Hearts x-over, because that's scheduled to happen sometime in GoW ^.^V

...Speaking of which, where's chapter 2? *nagnag*

[soc_puppet]

Yayness :D ♥

One of the best reasons to write in longhand, I've found ;)

Ah, that's fine ^.^ *forgot, whut*

....Computer changes are once again distracting? I'll get on it as soon as I finish my Spanish homework.

[mistressoffoxes.livejournal.com]

I think I have most of the fic planned out now... but would you mind if I added Yuuri to the mix? I have a much easier time making it flow right if he's in it *is a die-hard Yuuri/Wolfram fangirl, whut*

Spend most of the evening sitting in a sofa with a cat and a cup of hot tea watching Nightmare Before Christmas and drawing new desings for Heartless, though... Didn't really get any writing done, so my icon is once again very appropriate XD
...Did finish a rabbit-looking-whatthehellamIdoing-Heartless. Now I only need to finish the feet ^^;a

Again, I'm not really asking you to hurry... Kairi is being a bitch difficult, so I'm not even halfway done with chapter 3 -.-
I JUST WANT TO GET TO THE GOOD PARTS, DAMMIT! *shakes fist at sky*

[soc_puppet]

Sounds great :D I'm also a Yuuri/Wolfram 'shipper, so it works out fine for me ;) I just think playing with the dynamics of the two younger brothers would be fun as all heck.

XD Okay now these I've gotta see.

I know, but it would be good to have it finished anyway. It might help kick-start you into writing and all that.

[mistressoffoxes.livejournal.com]

Whoot! ...I also need to know how far you are in the series... I have a feeling that I'm a bit ahead of you, and I don't want to spoil anything for you unless you want me to ^^;a

I'll see if I can convince my father to let me use his scanner, then... and if it will scan the drawings in a good enough quality, since it's only pencil drawings...

Yeah, but still... I want to write Kairi girly (at least more girly than me), and I have to do it without making her unbelieveably girly... Why, oh, WHY is Sora so much easier for me to write? D:

[soc_puppet]

I've seen through episode fifty-nine. And I would not exactly object to spoilers ^_~ ...I should make myself a KKM icon, too.

*crosses fingers*

XD Really? I find it really easy to write Riku for some reason. And Kairi's a girl; there's not a lot of harm in writing her like one. Well, I don't think so at least.

[mistressoffoxes.livejournal.com]

Ah... Well, then I have a bit to catch up to ^^;a
I'll see when I can get it done, then, since the plunnie just decided to go in another direction >.>
And if you make a KKM icon, could you then please share? :3

I'm allowed to use the scanner, but spend most of today drawing another Heartless, painting pearls, watching movies and having Roy over, so it will probably be scanned tomorrow.

But Kairi is not a "Rainbows and Gumdrops" kind of girl which is the directing she is currently heading in GoW WTF?, and that is obvious, even from the small tidbits of her character we get to see in the game. She has a much more realistic view of the world(s), and in chapter 3 she suffering from memories of a dream-that-is-not-really-a-dream and being very confused I'm actually feeling sorry for all of the things I'm putting her through, so she's not even gonna be her usual self *tearing hair out*... I really need to talk with someone about her characterization in GoW ;.;

[mistressoffoxes.livejournal.com]

and that was gonna be "she IS suffering", but my mind dies, so I forgot to check it... I have having a cold D:

[mistressoffoxes.livejournal.com]

ACK! Again, meant to be "died", not "dies", and "hate", not "have" D:

[soc_puppet]

I thought that might be the case ^^
I will be sure to do so :D *is planning on going on an iconning spree pretty soon*

Tomorrow is fine, as long as I get to see it sooner or later ^_^

Okay, yeah, that is somewhat WTF. I'd better get that chapter beta'd post-haste so I can offer assistance.

Don't worry about it, typos happen ^_^ Also, icon love. *points to Izumi'd* ♥

[mistressoffoxes.livejournal.com]

*is also planning an iconning spree* I'm mostly looking for pictures right now, though, as I have no copy of Photoshop, and cannot animate D:

Whoot! Assistance from Neechan! *glee*

I just usually check for typos before posting D: Knew you'd like it XD And yes, whoever made it is brilliant :3

[soc_puppet]

>_>... <_<... I can upload the .exe for PaintShop Pro 7.0 for you if you like? *also needs a pirate icon now* It may take a little while, as I'm currently tearing apart Jeva's CFUD app, but I will get to it, I promise! *nice guy pose*

[soc_puppet]

...WTF, LJ ate my comment D: Anyway, I was basically offering to upload the software for Paintshop Pro 7.0 for you, since it's a similar program to Photoshop.

It may have to wait a while, since I'm currently trying to tear apart Jeva's CFUD app, but I will get to it! That's a promise! *nice guy pose*

[mistressoffoxes.livejournal.com]

It's alright... Brother is looking for the newest Photoshop for me right now, and I have a cd with Photoshop 7, I just need a CD key for it which I could probably find if I wanted to search >.> *is lazy when sick*

Yeah, I read her post. She's trying to apply as Kaito, right? Tell her good luck from me ^.^V

[i-found-jesu.livejournal.com]

Whaaaaaaaaaat.



You are not ragging on Creedence Clearwater Revival's "Bad Moon Rising," are you?


because, you know, I might have to kill you dead.

[soc_puppet]

Of course not DDD: I just thought it was amusing, because it sounded nothing at all like Rasputina's version of it, and I didn't expect it. I have a very special place in my heart for both versions, I assure you.
