So... I've discovered a My Little Pony app, with insanly awesome character creator!!!!!
It's called Pony Town, and the level of options and details it goes into its amazing. Exit the mane and tail. That is a little lacking, but still awesome!!
So of course I made several OCs and Erik deer inspired by smokeyloki's idea of Erik deer centaur!
Changed it up a little. Added dark eyeshadow for his eyes. But I had to change the eyes so he don't look angry.
Aaaand because I couldn't let it alone, I changed the hair. I THINK I like it better but I wish there was something in between. Oh well.
Book ask book ask! For the book asks: The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, The Picture of Dorian Gray, Anne of Green Gables, Daddy-Long-Legs
The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

I recently listened this one on audio and am very glad I did. The exploration of sin vs. virtue was fascinating (and rather convicting at times), and the story was more entertaining than I expected, given that it's built around solving a mystery whose solution been common knowledge for more than a century. I also enjoyed the main character and some of the humor. But it's so weirdly paced--the mystery is just drawn out and drawn out for flimsy reasons (how many times can one man get letters saying 'don't open until my death'?)--and the ending, while unsettling in its abruptness, is extremely unsatisfying. How does Mr. Utterson react to all this?
The Picture of Dorian Gray

I'm aware of the central conceit, but I don't really have any interest in reading it. A bit too devilish-sounding for me.

This might be the first book I ever bought for myself, and I loved it. I wound up getting rid of it over the years, but then came back to the series as an adult and fell back in love with it. The characters! The setting! The humor! One of those rare books that truly is for all ages! I like several of the later books in the series better, but this one kicks things off amazingly and deserves to be a classic.

This is such a fun book. What a great voice! That alone makes it a joy to read, but it's also fun to see what turn-of-the-century women's education was like, and see the development of her friendships and romance. I guessed the secret rather early on, and it does make some of the plot turns seem a bit skeevy, but the book is otherwise so fun that it's hard to mind. I rather like the musical as well.
Heya! I know I've been pretty inactive on the tumblrs recently (work and school taking away any semblance of a life I once had :P) but I was interested in the poto calendar event, if you're needing applicants! Since I have finals happening in the first few weeks of Dec., would it be possible for me to have a day between 15-20th? If not, just stick me in where ever and I'll have something written for it! And my submission would be a short story.
Hello @smokeyloki,
awesome that you want to participate. Next day on my list would be December 10th. Would you be able to manage that or is completely impossible for you?
Please let me know. I'm just trying to assign the dates as the applications come in this time. Less organisation for me, since I'm running the project in two fandoms this year, which already needs some organisation itself XD. But if you can't manage the 10th, we'll find a solution.

-Sicilienne- Gabriel Fauré -Clair de Lune- Debussy -Arabesque No. 1- Debussy -Moonlight Sonata- Beethoven -Cello Suite No. 1- Bach
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium is a very good movie. A wonderful pick-me-up, and it's one that kiddos can watch, too :)
I’ve somehow never seen it! Noted, thanks!
Heya~ I recall us talking a tiny bit about skirts and dresses, and my mom was just talking to me about macabi skirts. They're super informal, and they come with a clip so you can turn the skirt into "pants", they've got pockets, and they seem like they're really comfy. Good for days when you're outside or even just hanging out at home..or if you need a pants outfit for some reason, you just adjust them and you're good to go! You can look up the skirts online. Just wanted to share ~
Ohhh thank you so much!! That’s a great idea! I will definitely be looking those up!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY FRIEND I love seeing all your updates and posts and I'm introduced to so much amazing content because of you. Here's to hoping you get all the best today in terms of love, food, friendship, and rest!
