crantz: Screencap of a player character from the videogame City of Heroes. (videogames city of heroes riley grimm)
Doodled around and did nothing except play videogames, sleep, and do fic exchanges!

I can't link what I wrote for Yuletide and X-Men X-Mas X-Change yet, but you betcha I will soon. I'll link what I got too, once their authors are revealed. They're Murdoch Mysteries, X-Men Animated, and Father Brown!

So in World of Warcraft I was trying to get every class to 120 and I did it! I succeeded! I had to do a lot of PvP to do it and I learned a few things.



  • Alliance PvPers are jerks (to their own teams. Horde was so jolly and nice! And wouldn't randomly yell slurs)

  • I had no idea what I was doing and I was doing it poorly (no one picked on me for that, I doubt they noticed in the chaos)

  • I get antsy when I can plausibly get away with staying safe under the pretense of 'guarding' and feel more like I'm providing for my team when I'm being brutally killed by the opposing team, even though the guarding is, in fact, more useful

  • I am never doing that again omg

  • omg

  • omg

  • but if I get to honor level 5 I get a pet...



Anyway I did it all just in time for uh, the level squish.

Oh well.

Turns out I don't have the blood lust but I do have the 'would like to be overpowered to finish Legion content' lust.

For 2020 I want to get more fandoms. I'm trying to get into Deadman right now and I'm really enjoying the collections of his appearances I got off of Comixology in the giant DC sale but I am not enjoying anytime it's a Phantom Stranger issue. I had to ask Ann if Phantom Stranger was actually meant to be enjoyed and she thinks so but she isn't sure.

Bleh bleh shut your talky meat, Phantom Stranger.

Midsomer Murders is really ramping up its tawdriness in ways I dare not speak in polite company but DID tell someone on twitter that they'd gone for the Incest Grand Prix in ways I hadn't seen outside the most nsfw of fanfiction or Heinlein.

Midsomer's been going since 1997, and it turns out it was another murder show my late grandmother loved. I started watching Murder, She Wrote in her memory and I guess I've been carrying on with Midsomer for her too. God, I'd love to discuss some of these episodes with her. Like, one episode had 7 murders and 7 killers! (May not be exact memory)

Meanwhile people ask if I want to get into like, good high quality fiction and I say, spare that noise. I'm not here to be classy and well-educated.

Oh, and I passed first term. A-! I go into second term with... multiple courses with the same professor! Gosh, I hope she isn't sick of me!
