Benchmark of Nothing

Putting the post up early tonight/today because I'm ten minutes from face-planting into my pillows. So, who's added the llamas to their stories? I know there's got to be one of you, even if it was just a dream sequence. Come on, you can tell me. *grins*

Spam! Wrote this not long after TDK came out but never posted it. Since the evil twin just wrote Joker/Scarecrow with similar elements, I knew I had to post it as the same time as hers or I'd never do it. Team Porn does Arkham. Arharhrh.


The Frayed Ends
Batman. Batman/Joker. R. ~1000 words. Nolanverse. Violence.
Darkness gathers into a swarm around them and Bruce doesn’t want to let the bastard take one more goddamn breath.

Just a little something to get me in the groove for doing homework. Done without access to my usual brushes so there are several big things that make me go DDDD:, but I didn't want to spend more than an hour on this. Warmup means warmup, Pondy.

Avengers. Steve/Tony. G.

It's Friday. Those of you who are off today, sprint for the 40k mark. Those who aren't... try and slap in another 2k into your word counts. We can do this.

Attended a benefit dinner last night with J, maiki, and Susan for a non-profit that we've done a lot of work for. Materials that both Susan and I had designed were all over the place and it was really nice to see it all out and looking snazzy. Susan's done a lot to get their informational materials/reports looking clean and professional. I did the benefit's programs, invites, and carried over from last year was a set of promotional posters which I'm still proud of. The project, per usual, made me gnash my teeth at times, but I do enjoy working for them, and it was flattering when people whom I didn't expect compliments from told me they were impressed by the invitations in particular. :D Leading up I had this worry about the pagination on the program booklet since I worked entirely remotely and never saw a proof (or even had time to run one myself!) but everything turned out beautifully and typo-free. By this point, I've done enough recent work to have a solid design portfolio again, so with so few classes left ahead of me it's nice to have that in addition to what's shaping up to go on my reel.

I didn't mingle much, as J and I were introduced to some great people early on and there was no incentive to bother straying away from the interesting conversation to rub elbows with people outside my industry. It was somewhat fascinating attending something like this after so long, and also after now having worked on catering from the serving end! The appetizers, by the way, were awesome. I wish we offered some of them on our own menu, especially the warm cranberries and almonds in phyllo cups. Yum.

My shoes were remarkably comfortable. I haven't worn actual heels in forever and it's nice to confirm that my knee can handle hours standing around in 3" heels.

This was supposed to be anon commentporn, but then it wasn't fulfilling what the OP had asked for so I wrote it for Blue instead.

Boys' Club
X-men RPS. Hugh Jackman/Liev Schrieber/Taylor Kitsch. NC-17. 3400 words.
God, tonight he'd be a slut for it if that's what they wanted.

Today I'm going to try and sprint to the 50k mark. Story's no where near done, but yeah. I'm at 32695. That's not bad with midterms and starting to study for finals.

Post is up. Let's get busy.

Jenn

*sneaks on in class and looks around* Post is up, have at kids.

Jenn

*drags my carcass back in* Just got back from Stafford, Tx. I will never do that again! Never ever ever! But enough of my woes. We've got 14 days left, including today to get to our goals.

Give me about an hour to recover and I'm joining in the mad typing.

Jenn

New day is dawning and there's music playing in the background. Let's boogie on down with our bad selves and write like there's no tomorrow.

It's Sunday... Just 15 more days left in NaNoWriMo. So where are all of you lovely people at today?

It's Saturday, bright and early too. I vote that we all go back to bed and sleep for a few more hours. No? Oh well, on to the writing. Post is up, let's get down with our bad selves.

Jenn

I was invited to join bottom_draco's Fairy Tale fest. The reveals were today and this was my submission. I knew the prompt was left for the squick factor, but I couldn't resist the urge to draw a micro fetish pic.

Harry Potter. Hagrid/Draco. NC-17. Micro.

Dear Santa,

( Although I tried to make my prompts relatively thorough on their own, here's a bit more info about my general likes and dislikes. )

Happy Friday the 13th. I say we throw a movie marathon tonight. Who's with me? *grins* Post is up and there's writing to be done.

Jenn

Alright kiddies, we're pumped. We're motivated. We've got at least one person in our group who's hit the 50k mark. So, you know what this means? It means that the rest of us have got to get trucking along, myself included.

Our goal for today? Collectively, that is. 10,000 words added to our numbers. That means you. *points* Write 2,000. You. *points to someone else* Another 2,000. Come on, at least 5 of us can make this.

Who's with me?

Worked a bit on my Logan/Daken pic. Note to self: please explore range of facial expressions beyond grumpy or snarling. In the middle of said drawing, I may have chugged a Butte Creek IPA, which, if anyone knows my alcohol tolerance means that I have a very slight buzz. Still not as good as a Speakeasy Big Daddy, but yum regardless.

IJ's porn_battle is over and I miss it already. There was a Kadaj/Roy Mustang prompt that seemed terribly shiny until I actually tried writing it and ended up with something that felt like a thinly veiled Envy/Roy. Oops. Eked out a Victor/Logan though, which was nice. Shall get the lot cleaned up and properly posted on my site when I am not slightly tipsy.

Happy to report that I feel caught up on my schoolwork again, in no small part because I got a ton and a half done on my creature modeling today in class. I also managed to resubmit my Yuletide to fix up my offered fandoms and add a couple more. Tomorrow I'll probably write up my Santa letter, although I seem to say mostly the same thing each year. Gwee. Yuletide, it's like the best part of the holiday season next to leftover turkey.

Although I'm not drawing a ton, I find myself missing not having a place to art dump. I realised that with DW's shiny new subscription filters that I could just set up a tag that people can avoid if they want and then I don't have to worry about feeling like I'm spamming everyone with doodles and WIP things. So, fair warning, if you follow me on DW and don't want to see sketches and junk and wip things, you might want to tweak your subscription settings to avoid the art:unfinished tag that I'll be using. I won't be crossposting art dumps to IJ or to my site.

Sorry I'm late. I got bogged down yesterday. So, I'm doing a double post today for you guys. Forgive me.

Jenn

I've got to say that I'm really proud of you guys. You're inspirational and just a tiny bit insane, but that's what makes you all so cool. *throws pom poms in the air and waves them like I just don't care.*

SO post is up. I've got a test today and then coming home to work on Like A Dream. Wish me luck, lovies.
