So I've been seeing this RP meme going around, and heck, why not.
PICK ONE OF MY RP CHARACTERS AND I WILL TELL YOU:
→ why I decided to play this character
→ my favorite scene or bit of interaction concerning this character to date
→ my favorite original aspect about this character (world-building for OCs or head-canon for FCs)
→ the last thing they did "off screen"
→ what their last words would be if they died tomorrow
→ what the next thing I'm doing for them is (narrative, post, shelving, whatever)
BONUS ROUND:
» I will tell you what character of yours I'd like to play mine against
» you may ask me a free question
This applies to any character I've ever played, live-action or tabletop or text-based.
And for the benefit of those I have never RPed with -- pick a character you know I like, from any canon whether visual or written, and I'll provide similar answers. Or as similar as I can manage.

If there is one person or more on your friends list who makes your world a better place just because they exist and who you would not have met (in real life or not) without the internet, then post this same sentence in your journal.

 | 06:12 pm - to blog of many things
Well, two things. Thing the first: sdelmonte and I are safely home from Boston. It was a lovely weekend, full of good friends and fun things, and I'm really glad we went. Thanks again to our hosts and to the folks who came around to meet us!
Thing the second: boosting the signal. The fabulous S.J. Tucker is giving a house concert at the home of ladymondegreen and akawil in Jersey City on the evening June 3rd! Details and RSVP space here. Those of you who are in the area, or who can get to the area -- plan to be there. Seriously. It's gonna be awesome. (Sadly I won't be able to attend. But don't let that stop you! I need lots of people I know to experience it so I can get my vicarious thrills afterwards!)

 | 08:28 pm - Boston, part 2 of ... some number
So, yeah, Operation Wittenbergs Visit Boston is a go. For those of you who expressed interest earlier (or who missed it but are interested now), we're looking at a two-part thing on Sunday.
PART THE FIRST: Apparently there's a street performer festival that weekend at Faneuil Hall Market Place, and we can't miss that. So that's where we're figuring on going first, early afternoon; figure oneish. We're planning on bringing a picnic lunch of some kind. So who wants to meet and hang out with us there, and/or suggest somewhere else local to go if we all get bored with buskers?
PART THE SECOND: Our delightful hosts gnomi and mabfan have clued us in to the local kosher restaurants, and we like the look of Taam China in Brookline. Once we have an idea how many people we are, we'll make a reservation for six-thirtyish or sevenish. So who wants to have dinner with us and hang out into the evening?
Does anybody have any questions? Any answers? Would anyone care for a mint?

So for those of you playing the "Where's Batya?" home game: I'm visiting agonistes and silveraspen and vivien529 in Denver this weekend. Came in obscenely late last night, crashed for about four or five hours, and am inexplicably wide awake now.
Anyway, this means my online presence will be less than usual Saturday and Sunday night -- hopefully not entirely nil, though.
omg you guys I am ACTUALLY HERE. :D!!!!!

Did I miss anything important over the past three days? Link me here!

So I participated in the ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif) purimgifts fic exchange this year, and I'm pretty pleased about it. I got a delightful trio of Firefly and Farscape fics from waterdaughter (Time and Space, The Sacred and the Mundane, and Perihelion).
And for queenriley, using Firefly and Doctor Who, I wrote three Companion Pieces. With some graphics that I'm pretty proud of, especially the last one.
*smug*

February 4th, 2009
| 06:47 pm - Conflikt (or, Holy Six-String, It's A Con Report!)
So I never do these -- I always say "more later" and then never do -- and I think I should really start. To make it a bit easier, I will do my con report in the form of a series of bulleted lists.
( Bullet time! )
Does anybody have any questions? Any answers? Would anyone care for a mint?

Am home from Conflikt. Am too sleepy to make wordstuff. Challah at you later.
(P.S. CON WAS AWESOME)
