31 days: August 29, "Hatred is holy"

Blair Hall Apts., on the Feast of St. Medericus

I felt kind of drained after finishing "the AU Fic o' Doom" (as I called it in my head), and I thought to myself, surely no one would blame me if I skipped out on today's 31_days theme. So I planned to post instead about meeting up with ldmoonflower yesterday, just in time before she left for France, and maybe jot down some notes for myself on mental state while writing Balance (i.e. "What was I thinking?!"). But when I told my mother that I would skip writing for today and marathon Samsoon properly all night, she looked horrified and told me, "If you've come this far, then you might as well continue writing for the last three days. Otherwise, it will be an utter waste." You see, I had to explain to my mother exactly why I was spending all my nights typing frantically for hours and hours instead of talking to her. She doesn't quite understand the concept of fanfiction--and I think she forgets that I'm writing about anime characters--but I did show her some of my writing, and she's taken a bit of an interest. At least enough of an interest to put up with me not responding to her attempts at conversation and letting me stay up late without nagging me.

Anyway, it's thanks to her that I'm returning to drabble/ficlet mode and continuing to inflict more writing on you all. I don't think I'll ever be able to do this sort of thing again. But what about the wuxia themes coming up in February? Augh! >_<

I feel vaguely blasphemous, but then again, what else can I do with a character like Farfarello? -_-

Yours &c.
