taotrooper: It's a polar bear dancing the hula; your argument is invalid (Alphonse Elric / Mafia? / me)

Second procrastination

Meanwhile, my Contability Systems and Structures homework for tomorrow is not even begun. I'll pimp my brand new Mafia!Alphonse icon (yeah, it's an official Arakawa ilustration! I got it from here; I posted 3 other FMA mafia icons here)

But indeed, the CLAMP Chorus result now it's official. Most inventive AND first place!!! O____O
Woo-hoo, two first places in one week! I cannot believe it! I must be improving then. Or karma wants to tease me and I'll never get an award in my life XP I don't suppose that, I *know* that. These are my 15 minutes of fame in iconage.
And yes, Pam, I beat a lot of Dark Chii's arses with Subaru. That's why hot gay guys are superior than sexy incestuous botgirls :D [/kidding]

More offtopicness. I found an amazing sprite adoption site. But what makes this one special? The CCS chibis. Well, yeah, they're so cute, but that's not it. You know how sprite makers only do 25 Sakuras, a couple of Tomoyos, maybe Meilings and that's it? This is not the case. Granted, there are lots of Sakuras, and almost the same amount of very stylish Tomoyos. But that's not fucking it! After that, there are 4 Syaorans. And just below, 3 Eriols!! Yes, yes, yes!!
And I'm not done, the most incredible thing comes next. Chibis of Chiharu, Rika and Naoko!! OMGsquee!! There's actually someone who takes the three girls into consideration! If she had make a couple of Yamazakis and Meilings, the whole class would be there.
There are also some minor cards for adoption, like Shadow, Rain, Sweet and so on.

And there are some nice Fruits Basket ones as well, some of them animated.

I wasn't trying to make fun of you or something, it's just that I never thought mine would come so far, as Dark Chii is a incredible popular character among girls, and she was the center of attention this week.

And [livejournal.com profile] threeleaf and I are always talking about how Chii and/or Dark Chii icons usually kick our asses in icontests. Hence the comment. It was bezarre to see the tables turned. We just happen to be Subaru fangirls :P

No, I never intended it that way (I didn't use Dark Chii, actually - I used Sakura/Syaoran for one and Arashi for the other.) But yours was a lot cooler than mine, considering I spent five minutes on it. ^^;;

Waaa, that site is *so* cute! The girls in their cheerleader uniforms!!! ^_^ And Shaoran in his green robes, how adorable!

Such a pity that poor Shadow always looks like a Dementor :P

More than a dementor, I've always seen it as a Ringwraith. What's this, CLAMP, you did read Tolkien when you were doing CCS, didn't ya?

But yes, the girls are adorable and cute! I thought it was impossible to find an adoption website with CCS secundary characters, and you see... I'm so snagging the Naoko in the red uniform...

The thing is, Dementors look like Ringwraiths. And they have pretty much the same effect on people. And they first appear in the book where Dumbledore steals Gandalf's speech about how Gollum Wormtail still can do something useful before the end.

Hmmm. There is no coincidence. ¬_¬

And then you wonder why the gazillion HP/LOTR crossover badfics... you think it's just an idiot preteen excuse to blend fandoms with hot actors, but noooo! Then you stumble with things like this.

That reminds me of a quote I read "there's no such thing as original fantasy novels." No idea who said that, though.

Anyway, back to my paper T__T

...I'm such a fangirl

Nah, with checking it out apart once a day/every two days, it's enough. That's what I'm doing anyway.

I agree sometimes you can find lovely illustration and magazine scans there, like this one <3

*snrt* BWAHAHAHAHA! *wipes away tears of laughter*

Oh yeah, those are cute sprites. :P Allow me to add here how wonderful your CCK icon is, and the accompanying plot bunnies (also: if CCK isn't fanart-worthy, I don't know what is *eg*). Magical boy...*cackles*

Thank you ^^

Well, magical boy IS a genre. I've seen a magical boy show before: Matantei Loki Ragnarok. Yay for Norse mythology references! I even have a videoclip of the moment Loki summons his staff, but with the Sakura no Theme song as background. cardcaptorloki.avi

Wow, that reminds me of the time I was tempted of doing a Photoshop edit and paste Eriol's head in Loki-kun's body. Sadly, it would fit a lot [/random]

God, I went offtopic and made no sense whatsoever.
