the end of an era.

falling_voicesWell, ladies, this is the end of... something. Somewhen. I've officially graduated from my lit/english school day before yesterday, and I got my examination results yesterday afternoon. Basically, I'm in the top 10/15% percent, which is unexpected but great, because even though it doesn't get me into the ENS (which would have been akin to a miracle, methinks), it's a free-way into whatever Uni course, double-course, exchange program, options/specializations, etc — anything I want.
Beautiful days, you lot.

Date: 2010-06-27 12:57 pm (UTC)I shall try~ the Sorbonne is a lovely place to study in — I've used the library many times already — and it's not too far away from home if I take the subway. <3 uni in France, heh, lessee — we have three years of License, except I've already served two years in my prep school so I'm really entering third year, and then two years of Master, and then you can go on to your thesis and possibly the Agregation exam if you so wish. You can be a student till thirty if you can manage it XD
One day, I will write Pirate!England. I don't know when. I just will. /loves England way too muchthe main problem is, I'm in team canon, and my mind is swamped by AU scenarios. D:
no subject
Date: 2010-06-27 09:01 pm (UTC)you absolutely MUST take pictures or lj about it when october rolls around :D also whoahhh, that sounds intense. and err, long. our uni is at most seven years
and cries of suffering start way before 8D!AHEM.ohh i know when HOW ABOUT TODAY ;D ;D and can i join you in summer hell? i have so many requests-to-fill bookmarked it isn't even funny lfsablsbfHOW DID YOU GET STUCK IN TEAM CANON?! team au just lost like, their best ficcer.

no subject
Date: 2010-06-28 04:20 pm (UTC)I will — will dedicate an entire post to it if you will. XD and... yeeeah. Intense is a word for it. Nah, uni is nice here — the hours are great, if a bit dislocated, and we can mostly focus on small-classes curriculums.
CAN'T. MINIBANG FIC IS DRAGGING ON. but. yes! share! such as?I asked AU originally, but had no qualms about canon — and I know what to write, I just want to write more. /and homespun is going nowhere for the moment. minibang demands. oh god now there's a dog
no subject
Date: 2010-06-28 08:02 pm (UTC)YESSS :D! and whoah, small classes? that's like, a myth over here. sounds awesome ♥
HOMG MINIBANG. THAT TOO. GOOD LUCK. and hmm, so far they've been low-priority oneshots and short fills that are less on prose and more on getting the story done: this (http://hetalia-kink.livejournal.com/15068.html?thread=44359900#t44359900), this (http://hetalia-kink.livejournal.com/16221.html?thread=44740701#t44740701), and this (http://hetalia-kink.livejournal.com/11411.html?thread=44526483#t44526483), which is actually my favorite but least read |D i have a huge titanic fill planned that requires muuch more than half an hour of writing, though, so i are excited!
YOUR TURN.
dang, that's always a dilemma. /a d-dog?! tout-va-bien comes to mind, yanno ;D YOU ARE SPOILING YOUR RECIPIENT.
NOOOO
Date: 2010-06-28 08:03 pm (UTC)IS OKAY IS OKAY
Date: 2010-07-01 01:40 pm (UTC)(Also, so, um, basic response to teh fic:
• the stars are spinning: no, what, no. WHAT. You made me like an USUK fill. You made me want to write USUK. Which is just, okay, wtf
rukfor me, okay.• the dark: oh damn I wanted to fill this. Like, one day. When I’m not swamped. And okay, the USUK thing again, except for some reason I like them as brothers, so, yeah, my mind’s at peace there. ALSO JESUS THE TWIST. /awaits. in darkness.
• the prologue: I want your France. I just do. Which is strange, because usually it’s England I’ve a fondness for. Barring that: OH CANADA. OH. OH NO.
lyly. I was putting together a Hetalia rec fic. In my mind. And now you’ve gone and blown it all out of proportion, thanks ever so much.
I remember the Titanic request, though. And I’m reading a book about the Titanic. No, seriously, my brain, get out of it.)
My turn—wellll, nothing that you don’t know about, I don’t think — I need to finish Entente (oh god) and Le Temps des Cerises (oh god) and finish minibang (which will be way longer than 5 000 words, oh why) and maybe take on a few more requests, iunno. /frown Besides, I don’t think you’ve found every single kink meme fill I’ve written?
/ahh tout-va-bien — wish I could use that name again — and yes he just popped out. like, I’m in ur novella, crowding ur character. /shrug
why did i buy this pink fedora
Date: 2010-07-02 07:31 pm (UTC)because my school's classes seriously do that aha(i'm gaping, sara. i really am. THAAAAANK YOUUUUU ;A; arghh yeah, thank you /wibbles
also that darkness pun? I TOTALLY DIDN'T CRACK UP AT THAT SO NOT PUNNINESS. NOSIRREE.
and USUK is AWESOME, what are you talking about?! :P even if i can't help loving FrUK because of your fills ♥ CURSE MY TRAITOROUS HEART
i'm reading a moveable feast! it's about ernest hemingway's time in...PARISSSS YAY.)
'and maybe take on a few more requests'- NOO FINISH WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE TO DO GIRL. you have so many fans waiting for updates! although...did you write the fill about piercer!us/punk!uk? because honestly, some turns of phrases made me think immediately 'AHH I FOUND SARAA' in a very non-stalkerly way.
/you really need to post this fic on your fic lj when you're done :3
i do not pretend to understand the workings of your brain. i like fedoras, though.
Date: 2010-07-04 04:41 pm (UTC)42the meaning of life. Very important literature and so on. /nod (… what.)(♥
About USUK — I just… don’t like it? I don’t even dislike it, it just doesn’t do anything for me. Believe me, I tried. The only thing that made me go for it a little bit were these American Revolution doujinshi. And your beautiful ficcing.
And anything with pirate!England in itAnd yeaaaah, I’m an OTP person, sort of.France/Spain and England/Canada are just guilty pleasures.)Entente will take a while and I shall try to finish Le Temps, etc, before the end of the month but minibang is intruuuuuuding. D: why does this thing have to be so long-winded? It’s gen! and no, didn’t write that fill, although now I shall look into it.
DAMN. YOU./can do. when it’s done. in ten years. ;o;
me too. ALSO YOU UPDATED YOU UPDATED YOU UPDATED
Date: 2010-07-11 05:07 pm (UTC)HAVE I TOLD YOU LATELY HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU?!
AND THAT I'M REALLY SORRY FOR REPLYING A WEEK LATE.
mmm. hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy, very distinguished lit indeed. (yes. also, the students take over the class and the teacher just sits there to take notes on them talking)
yeah, there are a couple pairings that took me like a million years to warm up to too, but reeecently i've been writing america/germany (♥♥♥) and it is SO ADORABLE.
same same samealso THAT IS OKAY YOU UPDATED TODAY SQUEE I'MMA GO READ IT IN A SEC. /happy dance long-winded gen is the best kinda fic, because it reads iike a REAL NOVEL

Date: 2010-07-13 04:42 pm (UTC)Hallo. :D
(that sounds surprisingly like those existentialist classes I was taking in high school :/)
Never read that! link, please? it sounds so... strange, personality-wise.
there are so many pairings and so many comms, I can't possibly read them all what do you wantALSO. Do you read that utterly, utterly gorgeous General Relativity fill?tell me yes tell me yes/oh god my Arthur really shouldn't be that OOC. And it might be as long as a novel in the end. /major. head. desk.
/YOU are greedy. everybody else has forgotten all about it 8)

OMG THAT FILL THAT FILL. who hasn't read that fill? i mean, i think it's THE fill of the meme, in a sense.
i cry the day it endsi've actually been mistaken for the authornon, although i honestly can't believe how. DID YOU READ THE LAST UPDATE? IT IS SO MAGNIFICENT.yes yes YESwhat no he's not D: none of them are. seriously. seeeriiooouuuusllyyyyyy no blasphemous thoughts like that, do you hear me? /haha that's okay i am greedy
/yeah well. THEY SHOULD TOTALLY BE REMINDED OF IT.

Date: 2010-07-14 01:27 pm (UTC)OH GOD. okay, lyly. DON’T EVER STOP WRITING. Please? for the sake of humanity. EVER EVER. further comments will follow, I’m incoherent now. /sob
Agreeeeed. I mean, it’s probably the best thing ever on the kink meme since Are You There, God? It’s Me, Canada. And even then — Are You There, etc, was hilarious and adorkable and sweet, but this is just a level highest — heart-breaking and heart-warming and oh god, that last part killed me. The style is beautiful and Matthew makes my heart warm and Alfred is panicked and all ♥ (Also, I’ll admit I did think you were the author!anon for a while. And then you weren’t. You have similar styles, though, you do.)
But that’s the thing—it’s just England. Gen. And he’s not being cooperative AT ALL. I think the crossover is messing with his genes, or something.
/buuut i have too much to do! i'm leaving for a month next week! D:

Date: 2010-07-15 01:57 am (UTC)S-SEROUSLY?! shucks ♥ /sobs with you moar
oh my goodness, i loved are you there, god too. WHY IS IT ABANDONED WHYYYY. and yeah, general relativity just has this touch of humanity to it that totally hits home every time. the last part? IT MADE ME WANT TO GO TO CANADA AND INTO THE WOODS AT NIGHT DURING CHRISTMAS. aghhh! (y-you did? i think i'm going to keel over from this much ldskfjlsfing.)
...gen is messing with his genes.
/tarred and feathered
ANYWAY, england's personality is just...uncooperative overall |D and don't worry about it; it's AU. plus your readers can't tell, so you're still doing it right :D
/AHH OKAY TAKE CARE OF RL FIRST D:
no subject
Date: 2010-07-17 02:50 pm (UTC)I keep hoping there’ll be a new part up before I leave D: and yesyesyes the last part is so gorgeous. And ummmm the poetry. I mean. The poetry. (I keep thinking gems would love it. She’s hesitating between math and english courses for Uni—it’s the perfect fill for her. /proceeds to link)
Crossover gen is messing with his genes. Yes.
/pokes England (it just figures he’s my favourite hetalia character. He’s just like me. /prods) And it’s not AU, btw. :D :D
/a month without a computer whyyyy

Date: 2010-06-20 03:42 pm (UTC)What is a minibang? I don't know what it is, but if it's related to DCMK I'm all for it~! XD
no subject
Date: 2010-06-21 02:22 pm (UTC)A minibang is a mini-sized big bang, which is a fic exchange based on length: every fic must be at least 10,000 words long. A minibang is only 5,000. I'm currently writing one for Hetalia, which subsequently gave me the idea to organize one for DCMK. All pairings, all genres, all characters, all types of writing/drawing... wouldn't it be great? anyone could enter in fandom!
no subject
Date: 2010-06-21 02:51 pm (UTC)Also, yay, I can't wait to see what you'll bring this summer ^^ Do you know yet where you'll go to uni?
whoops, late reply
Date: 2010-06-23 02:42 pm (UTC)*grin* And yes, as a matter of fact, I do. I'm going to the Sorbonne, also known as the oldest university in Paris. <3
whoops, same!
Date: 2010-06-29 12:10 pm (UTC)Heh, I remember when I went to Paris last year I got lost looking for the Sorbonne ~~' And the kind lady in the pharmacy helped me out :P
Ahhhhhh.....it's such a bliss to have internet again~~~ ^^

About the APH minibang...I signed up for the art part...*grins* and we get to choose the summaries we are going to draw about!! 8D Mmm...I wonder...who am I going to choose?? *smirks teasingly*
AKCHDHFSHFLH!!!! DCMK MINIBANG!!! ME WANTS~~~ * w *

Date: 2010-06-24 04:54 pm (UTC)also exchange program would probably be for England sorry ;o;... you did. You did? 8D *adores you*
though for the record, if you chose my summary you might want to start watching Doctor Whodid you hear something? I didn't hear anything...OH AND YES BY THE WAY YES. :D
Oh! Then please, do take it! After all, I stole it too~~ *grins*
Date: 2010-06-25 02:46 am (UTC)ashbdaslkfab!!

/grin <3
Date: 2010-06-25 09:57 pm (UTC)Well it wouldn’t be farther away, really… sorry, sorry! ‘s just, I’m not studying Spanish, am I?Wait, wait: you’d need to watch this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMXXoDuF8W4) and this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0R5pYUJFtU) — sorry, no time for direct links, imma bit on a tight schedule here — (two episodes, one before the other, follow up the scenes, of course, there are about 20 scenes per episode) to get all the character you’ll need. <3 but wikipedia is good too, if you actually want to know who Rose and the Doctor are in the first place…

Date: 2010-06-26 11:40 pm (UTC)b-but! you know spanish!! ; o ; vos misma me dijiste que estabas aprendiendo!! also! I'll need to learn french someday...>> since fashion's home is in Paris it'll be useful for the future ;D (even though I know, I just know I'll fail and suck at it >.<gah, kk...>> I'll try to watch them tomorrow after Argentina plays with Mexico xD
no subject
Date: 2010-06-27 12:51 pm (UTC)The main problem is, I do know Spanish — that is, I can read it and listen to it okay — but whenever I try to speak it it's a fiasco. I love Spanish poems and songs, though for the record we mostly study newspaper articles about politics in South America and the Spanish Civil War. For seven years.Ooh, tell me the results, I don't follow~
no subject
Date: 2010-06-27 03:06 pm (UTC)Pfffftttttt..only newspapers articles??? xD that's the worst thing!! nothing that shows OUR newspapers are good!! xDDDDWill!! ^^ For now, we are watching the game between England and Germany because if we win today against Mexico we'll play against the winner of that game xDDDD
I'm so nervous!!! >.

Date: 2010-11-16 10:34 am (UTC)I may have hunted you down because I just read 1&2 of Le Temps Des Cerises and ohhh is it utterly gorgeous and I may have been searching for a(n as-yet-to-exist?) third part but really I just wanted to tell you how absolutely in love I am with your writing.
Thank you ♥.
no subject
Date: 2010-11-16 11:28 am (UTC)As yet to exist, I'm afraid — I've got it all planned out, but I need to cut down on the distractions and get to actually writing the last chapter. I'm hoping to finish it by Christmas, though. Also, thank you! that's such a lovely thing to say. ;o;

no subject
Date: 2010-11-16 12:11 pm (UTC)Ah, lovely! I shall look forward to it (a-and go stalk your writing journal in the meanwhile?)~ It's no problem at all, well-deserved compliments should be freely given ♥.
[Very pleased at the Matt Smith icons~!]
no subject
Date: 2010-11-16 04:58 pm (UTC)Nothing much to stalk Hetalia-wise, I'm afraid — most of what I've written in this fandom is on the kink meme (and I need to deanon on... say, all of it.) & ♥, again! /hugs

Date: 2010-11-17 12:39 am (UTC)I can tell you where to find the author on tumblr, but idk about Livejournal :xIt's all good~! I like your style, so. I will have to read the other FrUK you have on there and yes.
(Ah fantastic! How many days until Christmas again? ♥ He's going to be on the Craig Fergusen show tonight here in the US (not sure where you're from but!) so hopefully we'll get clips and whatnot afterward!)
