Promoting (sounds better than pimping, heh): Sceasleycest for the end of the year

[my_thestral]

Sooo, I did this one last year - it was my first Ron/Scorpius (and a first proper cross-gen ever, to be honest) - and it was fun! :) So if anyone is thus inclined to pair a certain (undoubtedly) attractive blond with (undoubtedly) a temperamental redhead - fire away! :)




Join for an end of the year fest! We'll need prompts from everyone, betas to look over pieces, people to make art or fanfic, and people to enjoy the fan works when posting opens in November! So it doesn't matter what you like to do, we'll need everyone for something.

See our info post here.

Promoting sounds sound better than pimping. *nods I'm starting to use it. XD

This fest sounds like the fest for you, dear!

[my_thestral]

Ahem! :) I don't know if I'll manage something, but perhaps an odd blond idea or two will take a stroll across my brain and fall into a well-set trap, with a horny Weasley waiting in it, ha!

[capitu]

LOL I love you always say, 'I don't know if I'll manage something,' and then 40K fic is done. XD

[my_thestral]

Well, at 40 K it is obviously that my writing-frezny went un-managed, LOL! :) Yep, that's me. I love writing and I do it excessively. I think someone forgot to teach me that quantity and quality are not synonyms, heh... :) ž
The thing is - with those batshit crazy kids (the older one got in a fight on the 2nd day of school and managed to drag his 1st grader brother in it!) - I never know if it's going to work out, especially when there are timelines to consider. So rather than promising, I deliver if I can and surprise myself with it (and murder my poor beta with exhaustion in the process). :)

[capitu]

I do love that kind of surprise. It's like a super unexpected gift. <33

I'm sorry he got into a fight, and of course went and dragged the other one. Never a dull moment, huh? ^^ *hug*

[my_thestral]

With these two, I have a feeling a Chinese person must have cursed me in my past life: may you live an interesting life! :)
To be honest, I haven't been too inspired this year, most of my writing is too long to really be interesting (and that's not fishing for compliment, it's just - I try to entangle the story in my mind and it's whoooosh-30 K- how the hell did that happen?!), but I keep kicking this wagon forward nevertheless.
Not every day/story is meant to be a successful one - but maybe one day I'll be perfectly happy with one I would never give it the credit for. If I stop writing, I'll never find out! :)

[capitu]

:) You are too hard on yourself, and I know you weren't fishing for compliments or anything, but it's true, you are hard on yourself darling. <3

You get a golden star for kindness; you've got to be one of the sweetest humans ever born! *happy hugs + a woolly blanket that itches if someone ditches it*
Oh, did my card from London ever reach you? I guess it's possible it got lost in the way. It happened once before when I sent it to Bulgaria - and that's practically next door from here. I guess in the long distances the mail service is even more unreliable. I was waiting for 3 months for the backpack I ordered for my son last year from Hong Kong - it missed Xmas and everything - he had to get it for his brother's b-day, as silly as that sounds! :)

[capitu]

I was going to message about it and then I forgot. I'm bad!

Nope, it hasn't, but I'll be honest and admit this last week i didn't go to the post office. I will, however, go this week and I'm hopeful it will be there. :)

*HUGS*

[my_thestral]

Oh, I think if that's the only reason you'd be going, you probably shouldn't bother.

I sent it around 3 June and if it had any intention arriving it would have probably been there, it's September, heh! :)
I probably misspelled the address or something (or my handwriting is so godawful they couldn't read it, LOL!) and it never made it.

Too bad, I was hoping to give you a little wave from London, but I guess it was not meant to be. I'll just have to go again, won't I? And next time, I'll take the typed addresses on labels with me, LOL! :D

[capitu]

Oh no, it's no bother. I have to go downtown anyway, around three blocks away so it's quite fine.

I'm sorry if it got lost though. It happened with a calendar a friend sent me. It was so weird, first as a test she sent me a t-shirt, and somehow in the package it said it got sent first to Canada! It took ages to arrive, but then she sent the calendar and it never arrived and she got it return to her, and the weirdest thing is, something another friend sent me after her arrived early. You can't trust Bolivian post service. I'm still hopeful though. <3333

[my_thestral]

Oh, you wouldn't believe how many times the mail for me from abroad went to Slovakia instead of Slovenia first! :P It happens all the time! And once our Dutch oma wrote both my sons a card each - and one arrived in 2 days and another one in 2 months, same address, sent on the same day. Crazy, huh? Well, let's hope for a miracle, then! :)

[capitu]

Oh, I know! I sent a little gift to a couple in the UK, but I sent two different packages. One arrived weeks earlier than the other. It was so weird.

Hmmmmm. I suppose I could be tempted.

[my_thestral]

:D Sounds great! The other Scorp/Ron stories you have are really great. I read them all, I think, I just didn't have time to comment, because my days are just fucked up that way.:P
If you decide to run, I'd love to read it. :)
