FICS: 2 Wednesday Prompts
Remember It Takes Six Minutes to Kill a Man? Well, that was the first chapter in a fic I wanted to write based on the cutler_beckett Wednesday Prompts. The only problem is that the prompts kept inspiring my out of chronological order, so I held off posting. But you know what? I say, fuck it. That's just one more excuse for me to not post my work. So from now on, I am posting my snippets each week. Part of the fun will be trying to figure out what the hell is going on anyway, amirite? It's be like one of those Choose Your Own Adventure Books from the '80s - and weren't those a fucking blast? Title: Admiral Bratton Style: Prose Genre: Revenge Words: 125 Rating: G Length: Drabble Prompt: spider web at cutler_beckett Pairings: Beckett/?, Beckett/Mercer Warnings: Character Death, Murder Authoress: cassiopaya Characters: Mercer, Admiral Bratton, Beckett and ?

I found some old idea books!
Soooo, I was cleaning up all my shit and I found like, 5 notebooks full of old PotC fic ideas!!!!!!!!!! I had totally forgotten about some of them! How awesome is that? #1 - I found my original notes and outline from 2007 for All Your Nights Belong to Me!!!! With all other additional notes written since! Expect an update my pretties... #2 - I found some notes on how the EITC is actually a non-existant company created by Cutler Beckett using Mercer's forgery skillz to make the whole thing up...This was a fic of mine that was going to explain how Mercer and Beckett first came together and how we got from the EIC to the EITC. Interesting, but I doubt I'll ever write it. #3 - I found my outline and notes for the fic where they all go to a ball in Kingston and Beckett get's high and is very rough with James as a result and when Beckett starts to OD on the voyage back Mercer has to keep Norrington from killing Beckett. This is a fun one and I totally think I will type this one out! #4 - Found a short note of a Mercer/Beckett interlude from The Sound of His Horn... FUN. STUFF. |

Oh dear god, I've found "The Patriot" fanfiction... And I dare you to have me post the links!
No, but seriously, it's weird what will pop up in a Google search while researching fanfiction...
So, there I am minding my own business, looking up PotC 4 stuff on Wikipedia and IMDB.com and I notice that ( thar be spoilers! ) </div></div> Plan de la Nouvelle Orleans Capitale de la Louisiana, 1728. Much of the population in early days was of the wildest and, in part, of the most undesirable character: deported galley slaves, trappers, gold-hunters and city scourings; and the governors' letters are full of complaints regarding the riffraff sent as soldiers as late as Kerlerec's administration (1753–1763).
And then, New Orleans History lead to Creole History, which lead to Quadroon History (which fits into my version of Anamaria's backstory) </div> which somehow lead to this, this, and this.
I'd ask you all to stop me, but by the time you read this it will be too late!

Lovely
Now that I've lost those 10 lbs of stress weight and am keeping it off I have rediscovered that I have lovely, elegant collar bones. I'm back to being 100 lbs and I haven't been that since my Sophomore year of college. Now if I can just get rid of the hormone/stress induced acne all over my scalp, face, neck, back, arms, torso, and thighs I'd be rockin'. |

Halloween: Tallship Kimono!
Well, this year for Halloween I'm hitting the costume contest circuit as a geisha - in a kimono decorated in tallships no less! I own one of the kimono that was used in a dance exposition by a group of Geisha to commemorate Commodore Perry's "Let's trade or we'll shoot!" Opening of Japan. Here's the picture, if you're interested. Wish me luck! |

Because someone had to...  I thought of this yesterday and I'm surprised no one has thought of this before I managed to get to it... |

Something that made me happy today: I read three books and three days with no sleep. Broos Campbell writes the Matty Graves series - it's Age of Sail from the American perspective. Matthew "Matty" Graves is a midshipman in the U. S. Navy during the undeclared war with France in the Caribbean after the XYZ Scandal circa 1799 - 1800. It's realistic - characters die (sometimes horribly) - there's blood and shit and piss - slavery - prostitution - seventeen year-old angst - alcoholism - and other fun things. Peter Wickett is a lieutenant and sometimes Matty's enemy, but always his friend and is my new favorite. He's tall, dark, and ugly and while I can't say he's a happy character - he has moments of such intense satisfaction that just turns me on makes it all worthwhile. I e-mailed a fan letter to Broos Campbell:( To him... )And then he responded!
( To me... )YAY! |

Regret
There is so much in my life that I regret. I wish I could have a "do-over" because every time I manage to get ahead I end right back in the same place I started. Here. I've made a lot of mistakes. The worst one was thinking I could be like Sabrina Fairchild: go out and encounter the world and return triumphant. For a time there it looked like I was succeeding and then I find myself crawling back in defeat. I cannot even connect with anyone anymore. I couldn't even come back to this place. I am adrift. There is nothing for me to hold on to and I rage at the slightest things. I obsess over killing others. I obsess over killing myself. That's the scary thing; there is no graceful way out. I feel like a living han-ya mask: a countenance equally twisted in rage and sorrow. |

Suicide
I predict I will kill myself before the age of 30. |
