The Iliad, Don Juan, Oryx and Crake (a Canadian novel!)

What would you rather have: glory, power or a beautiful lover? Hmm... Power. Then I might be able to do something good with it.

Are you a flirt?Oh gods no! I can’t... at all. I can’t even tell when people are flirting with me, much to the amusement of others. I was at a barbers once, and was just chatting with the guy. My partner was amused, and when we left was laughing. The guy was apparently flirting with me, and my complete unawareness was funny. I didn’t mind. I just found the idea odd.

What would you do if you were the last human on earth?I don’t think I’d get the point in hanging around? I’d have to go find a gun, then probably go somewhere nice. The mountains, perhaps. There’s a place I lived when I was 17 that is really beautiful - there’s a lake by the mountains. I loved kayaking there. But, mostly, I’d just be glad it was over, and happy for Gaia/the earth/Nature. I wouldn’t mind dying. I’d just hope that everything found balance again soon, and long live the elephants!

WIP meme, "annoyed"

Again nothing in my Star Wars WIP. Here’s some domestic cecilos:

Carlos blinked. "What---what passive-aggressive thing?" he stammered.

"This thing where you tell me you're annoyed but pretend you're not annoyed." Cecil was frowning. "The first time you did it I figured it was just...the distance, being apart, you weren't thinking maybe. But you've done it a few more times since you've been back and now I'm starting to get annoyed.”

WIP meme, "lips"

Nothing in progress for Star Wars, but here’s a li’l snippet of earlos that never went anywhere. (Quoting more than a sentence because I can.)

Dizzy, lost, his face hot and his vision unfocused and his hands fluttering against Earl's back, Carlos broke away, sucking in deep, desperate breaths. Earl's eyes were dark and his lips were swollen and parted, and Carlos groaned without meaning to and closed his eyes and fell forward again---

But two fingers pressed abruptly and firmly across his lips halted his renewed quest for Earl's mouth.

7, 11,17 :D

7: Talk about your biggest insecurity.

Ooh, biggest is going to be tough. I have rather a lot of them. But I think the biggest one is creativity. I am completely convinced that I do not have original ideas worth exploring. It’s why I don’t write anymore. It’s also why I cosplay the way I do-- I strive for 100% accuracy because I don’t feel comfortable putting my own creative spin on anything. What if it isn’t right. So yeah. Trying to be original? Not a thing I am comfortable with.

11: Talk about the best dream you've ever had.

I almost never remember my dreams, and the ones that have stuck in my mind are mostly nightmares. So I don’t have a large or appealing set to choose a ‘best’ from. But... I suppose the most pleasant one I recall was... well. I had a rather erotic dream about a friend of mine. The only reason I recall it is that in my dream I was physically male and when I woke up I was extremely frustrated, because I was still wanting and couldn’t do anything about it because I didn’t have the right equipment. (It was very disconcerting.)

17: Talk about someone you want to be friends with.

Basically all the people I interact with online, lol. I am really bad at friend, and I just kind of assume people don’t think about me when I am not around-- for all I know, the people I want to be friends with already consider me a friend. But there are more than a few, usually cosplayers, that I desperately wish I felt I could call “my friend.”

cecearl, 5 please!

“We could have had something, Cecil.” Earl said, grabbing Cecil’s arm with a death grip. “Always remember that.” He searched Cecil’s face for any sign of recognition- for any kind of reaction.

“I...will?” Cecil guessed, raising an eyebrow and pulling back. “Anyway, thanks for the interview, Earl.”

Kylux, 20.

“What was that?” Hux snapped, because he’d been expecting an insult. Only it hadn’t been an insult at all, and as Hux’s brain caught up to the actual words that had come out of Ren’s voice modulator, he felt his cheek twitch, and it was all he could do not to turn his head away.

He stared at Ren’s mask instead, pretending he was seeing Ren’s actual eyes, and annoyance at the fact that he couldn’t helped temper the embarrassment.

“I said,” and Ren’s voice came out in something of a stutter this time, “I hope you are prepared for our meeting with the Supreme Leader.”

Hux drew up straight, turning to square himself to Ren’s slightly taller profile, and cocked his head slightly to one side. “That is not even remotely what you said.”

Suddenly Ren’s lightsaber was in his hand and alight, sparking red plasma filling the hallway with a low, threatening hum.

Hux carefully ignored the blade, never shifting his eyes from the mask. “Thank you for the compliment, Ren,” he said, as airily as he could manage.

For a long moment the knight was silent, motionless. Then he wheeled away from Hux, let out a howl of rage, and began to decimate the nearest computer terminal.

chickadddddd said: I stand by my conviction that the prevalence of Jefferys out there is from parents who didn’t know the proper English spelling, haha

I actually looked at Wikipedia, and it seems Jeffrey is indeed the “correct” spelling, but there are some pretty interesting variants.

Variations include Jeff, Jeffry, Jeffy, Jeffery, Geoff, Geoffrey, Jeffeory, Geffrey, Jefferson, and Jeffro.

JEFFRO. Fascinatrix. I’ve never seen that one. 

Anyone named Jeffro reading my blog?
