Ponderings

[soc_puppet]

...Hey, is it weird to think of a character as 'yours' before you get in with them and if you'll probably give up on reapping them in a fit of depression if you don't? (Not that I want to give up, but man, app failure blues are hard to fight DD: ...I should just rotate who I app or something, see if that helps.)

Also, I've been going over the character's canon again (mostly the parts where they appear), and I'm once again stumped at how people can dislike them. ...And then I remember that I was one of those people before an internet quiz Showed Me The Way, and I decided I'd damn well better like that character if I apparently was them on that quiz. ...The character was surprisingly easy to like, though, and I am now saddened by the fact that I seem to be about the only person who feels this way, and by how many people think the character is dense/ditsy/etc. (It really doesn't help that it seems to be done in canon, too =_= CHARACTER NOT STUPID, KTHX. Just... differently engaged.)

Anyway, to connect the first paragraph to the second, I've heard its fairly ...normal, I guess, for people to associate themselves with the characters they play at CFUD, but I don't really know that it's healthy for me to do so yet. Or helpful. Or any number of things. So I should definitely not actually be insulted whenever someone insinuates that the character is stupid >: ...This appears to be more easily said than done, unfortunately. *sigh* When all this is over, I am so going to make that character a shrine or something. Or at least look for one.

On a vaguely related note, it appears that CFUD Scanlation Team is a go o_O I'll have to try and balance things so I don't end up spamming CFO too much.

Edit: Everyone and his pet account is dropping at CFUD DD: They are dropping like flies, they are. Even long-term people that I never thought I'd see leave >: This is sad-making.

Edit 2: WTF, Yahoo!, start sending my my gorram comment notifications already. And also regular emails. Bitch.

Okay, I have no clue who you're apping! XD
*Is now intrigued and shall have to wait to see the "who". :<*

And yeay for CFUD Scanlation Team!
Re edit: What? *Goes to look since she's been distracted from CFUD of late, mostly by fanlib nonsense.*

[dagronrat.livejournal.com]

WTF Lee's dropping?!

[dagronrat.livejournal.com]

OH WAIT. Nevermind. I think I guessed now. 8D
Good luuck~! ♥

*sad at lee's departure though. Hope the mun continues to enjoy life though. ♥*

[soc_puppet]

Well, hopefully that will have thrown the scent off for anyone else reading here, then ;) Also, I've totally done the same quiz results thing with Sakura from Naruto except it didn't work as well.

Hooray, CFUD Scanlation Team!

[soc_puppet]

EET EES TRAGICK DD: I am sad now ;_; I never thought he'd leave us, and he was one of the early ones, too! ...I'd speculate on who would be next, but I don't feel much like tempting fate.

[soc_puppet]

XD Really? How'd you manage that? Let me guess - the beta whoring post?
Thank you ♥ ...Also, you think I could maybe run it by you to check if it's in character? 'Cuz I don't know if I'm going to manage any canon-friendly betas this round.

*also still sad* But she's still here as skyentific or however it's spelled! And also Nami from One Piece, I think. Not that it's not still sad, but the player remains with us, so.

[dagronrat.livejournal.com]

Got it in one. ♥
And most certainly~. To be honest I can't understand how you can't find any canon-friendly betas. O_o It's not as the character was actively evil...!

And that is good to hear. ♥ (Though I'll miss Lee & Gai's awesome posts together. T-T)

[soc_puppet]

Awesome, thanks ♥♥♥ Well, friendly wasn't the perfect word there; familiar probably would've worked better. And I've got a mental list of people who I know are, mostly from a previous attempt at a different character in that canon, but again, this character may well represent everything people hated in high school, so ^^a If worse comes to worst, I can be forward and ask right out. ...Also, is your e-mail listed in your info, or do I need to dig for it or something?

And yes, that is good, and I will also miss it ;_; Team Gai is now short two members.

[dagronrat.livejournal.com]

The gmail adress listed on my profile is the one you want. ♥

And ahaha, I guess so. ^^; A lot of people seem to be busy this time of year too.

... PLZ tell me Gai didn't drop?

[soc_puppet]

Thanks, I'll send it right over ^___^

Yeah, that's true. What with graduations and exams and all that fun stuff =_=

What? No, he hasn't yet, I'm damn near certain. I meant TenTen. Almost since Camp started we've had Neji and Lee and wanted a TenTen, but we haven't been able to get her yet, even after getting a Gai, so.

[inquisitorial.livejournal.com]

I is sad to see people dropping at CFUD. T_T

[dagronrat.livejournal.com]

Ah yes, that makes sense. This is where I need to reread my Narutos obviously. XD

Replied~! ;)

[soc_puppet]

I is also sad DD: See my special keywords and everything? Sad ;_;

[soc_puppet]

Yeah, that might help ^^a

Thanks ^__^ Also, apparently it is Yahoo! that is being sucky and not LJ, 'cuz I haven't gotten it yet (as well as what must now be half a dozen comment notifications; GJ, LJ -_-). Don't suppose I could get you to forward it to socchan @ gmail . com?

[dagronrat.livejournal.com]

Sure! And I was under the impression LJ was being slow since I'm getting alerts for your comments one to two hours later. D:
Hope it's not gmail being slow...

And done!

[soc_puppet]

Well, thankfully going away for the night seems to have gotten it caught up, so.
Couldn't say :/ I mean, only if it's a combination of both gmail and LJ being bitchy would it make sense to me, 'cuz otherwise it'd be a combo of LJ and Yahoo! being bitchy.

Thanks ^_^ It already turned up in my Yahoo! account, though, so I think I may go with that instead XD;;;

[pinkandkhaki]

T_T Damnit. I thought winter was CFUD's only dropping season.

[soc_puppet]

Looks like it comes semi-annually DD: IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO DO THAT, DARNIT!
