Over six months. Wow. Updates and a meme!

Wed May 27, 2009, 1:40 PM
  • Mood: Cheerful
  • Listening to: MONO - Everlasting Light
  • Watching: One Piece, Valkyria Chronicles, FMA, Yakitate!!
  • Playing: TF2, Braid, Mr. Robot, Aquaria, Mario Kart DS
How y'all doing? I've finished my first set of exams in February (gaaah... :weep:) and my second set on Monday (eh. Not too bad).

My brother and myself have got new beds now. Which I pretty much assembled myself. After I helped disassemble the first lot. Yay. On the plus side, one-foot-thick matresses. With springs! Awesome stuff.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All the anime I mentioned last time? Finished 'em all. Been watching Valkyria Chronicles, though I'm not quite sure why, and Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, the new series, which follows the manga much more closely. I'm wondering how many episodes this series will be going on for, because it seems rather... rushed.

Two anime that I will recommend, since I watched them recently, are Last Exile and Ergo Proxy. The former is a steampunk aeronautical adventure, with some cyberpunk thrown in for good measure. While the latter is cyberpunk in the extreme, and doubles up with paranoia, conspiracy, and general mindfuckery. Both are excellent.

I accidentally watched the first two episodes of Gintama. Oh wow. It's hilarious. And it apparently gets BETTER. After I finish Yakitate!! Japan, I'll be watching this.

Of course, I'll have to START Yakitate!! Japan first. I'll do so tonight.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The new Anamanaguchi album came out. Dawn Metropolis is awesome, and is a major change from Power Supply. If you enjoy rock and chiptunes, you owe it to yourself to buy this one.

And the new MONO album, Hymn to the Immortal Wind? Is MONO at the top of their game. Sheer awesome, with a 24-part orchestra backing them up. Yes, they had an ORCHESTRA backing them up. And it's wonderful. My favourite track is the last, Everlasting Light, which is beyond epic.

I got tagged (indirectly, of all things...) by :iconepicmyst:, and so, introducing you to Karma, my rather jaded OC.

Rules:
1. You must choose only ONE of your OCs. Do it again if you wanna use another OC.
2. Your OC must answer every question as truthfully as possible.
3. Title the journal as "OCs Quiz (your OCs name)".
4. When you're done, tag as many people as you want.
5. Have fun!!!


1. Hi! What's your real name and nickname?
Karma. Well, that's what everyone calls me. I don't actually know my real name. I had all traces of it removed in a variety of ways.

2. Interesting... what's your current age?
36.

3. Uh huh. What's your favorite food?
Pretty much any meat. As long as it can't have a conversation before it's killed, I'll eat it.

4. And your favorite drink?
Whiskey.

5. Your crush/lover?
None. I don't hang around long enough.

6. Aww! Have you two kissed yet?
See above.

7. Classic question! What's your favorite colour?
...

Blue. Seriously, what kind of interview is this?

8. Who's your favorite author?
Einstein. Seemed to be a decent guy.

9. Now what's your biggest fear?
Finally meeting someone I can't beat.

10. *stifles a giggle* I'm not laughing *bursts out laughing* Sorry. Any siblings?
...

I had a brother.

11. Almost, it's only twenty questions. Who's your hero?
Heroes... No-one comes to mind.

12. Ok, who is your worst enemy?
Mostly? The people I didn't kill. As I said, I don't hang around for very long.

13. What would you do if your hero and your worst enemy got together?
If I had one, I'd sit back with a sniper rifle and some popcorn and just wait.

14. Interesting... what would you do if you met your creator?
Probably throttle him for conforming to so many clichés and tropes.

15. Okay, I'll contact them right now. Done! Now, what do you want to be when you grow up?
... "Grow up"? Do I look that young?

I've been a mercenary for seven years. An assassin for six years before that. I wanted to have an actual future before... well.

16. What's your worst nightmare?
I still remember the night my family died. I've dealt with that, but I still see it.

17. What's your lifelong dream?
I wanted to be a hero or something when I was younger. And look how that turned out.

18. What would you do if your lifelong dream came true?
Be rather surprised.

19. Ok, where's your favorite place to relax?
I rarely relax. Oddly enough, the only place I can come close to relaxing is Limbo. I know a few Giths, and I can actually get a good night's sleep without waking up multiple times. I only really wake up once.

20. Last question! What do you spend most of your time doing?
Trying to not get killed, trying to kill someone else, training, travelling, repair work. Mercenary work is rather sedentary.

21. We're done! Now tag whoever you want. DO IT!
Anyone who has an OC and feels like it.

Thanks for the :+fav: on [link] It's nice that old deviations are drawing attention like this!

I have recently decided that in my case, the phrase "know thine enemy, and know thyself" is redundant. I am my own worst enemy...
I was browsin' your gallery for the features, and found it. I saw it had been faved, then found I hadn't. After berating myself, I faved it, then featured it.

It's totally worth it, and apologies for the enormous delay in the faving process.

I fairness, It's been on dA longer than I've had you friended.

True, but not much of an excuse, since I think I've seen it before now.

Some day you may even see it in person.

Not too much. And you?
