[For whenever you want a thread with Ishida but don't want to try hunting me down on IRC / the comm / whatever. Eternally open, good for multiple uses, and dated into the FUUUTUUURE so it will always stay at the top of my journal.]

note: this sis matu's fault. I mean, posting now . she enabled me!

( it took me a long time to get the coding right )

As much as it pains me to do this, I suppose someone must be the responsible party. And seeing as how I may be unable to vote tonight due to schedule issues, I suppose I must do at least this much.

Shepherd, are you quite sure that I cannot change my partner?

I will be gone mooost of this weekend, starting tonight and going til ... Sunday sometime. Yay anime convention! I will be at Ohayocon all three days (though not in the late late evenings -- we're close enough and poor enough that we're just driving out there). I ... think that means I'm going to miss Exalted tonight, orz. Assuming we're on for Exalted tonight. I don't even remember what the schedule is anymore.

If anyone's going to Ohayocon, look for the Nia cosplayer wearing a pink Gameboy DS case with a tiny Phoenix Wright plushie and a bell charm attached to it. I looove talking to CFUD people IRL. :Dd

If you want to play any of these out ICly, let me know! ... I may just have my character hand over the present if it comes up ICly anyway. :| With the exception of Kurogane and Shinjiro, anyway; they're way too maaaanly to think about holiday gifts. Rly.

Tinyhiatus for me! I'm spending all of tomorrow / some of Sunday with the grandparents, where I shall have no access to the internet. It's just one day, so I normally wouldn't post about it, buuut ... Christmas letters is that day, orz. Which makes me sad, 'cause I actually wrote them this year. Oh well!

I'm too lazy to email this to Tomo, so if some kind soul could just drop a link to this post once the letters post goes up, that would be fantastic. ... also I haven't done Mal's yet 'cause I can't think of anything right this second. I'll probably write one on Sunday, when I'm less braindead.

[from here. ... not that Ishida actually has anything to say at the moment. he's just not feeling up to it, somehow.]

As I have NO IDEA wtf kind of connection I'll have in my house at uni, I may have to rely on the library for my internet connection for a week or so. And I'll be moving / packing today anyway, sooo ... hiatus for today definitely. Semi-hiatus for the week, depending on connection issues. Hopefully all shall be well, though. /o/

I've been in Japan about three weeks now, so I figure it's high time I officially got off hiatus. Which I am now. :Dd The program is not nearly as hard as people make it out to be, which makes me happy. ... and also I'm addicted, shh.

However! The internet here ... is. Well. It's been having problems lately. :| I can still RP just fine, but IRC lags like a biiiitch. Gmail works fine, though, so I'll be in gchat pretty much constantly from now on. you can still talk to me in IRC, but please know that my response times will suck. D:

ALSO I know that I have people waiting on betas from me. If you sent me an app to beta before I left, could you resend it to me? That would be awesome.

[from .. somewhere in Ichigo's Father's Day post]

Nn. So my views are not merely juvenile delinquency.

As I mentioned in the comm a week or two ago, I am leavin' on a jet plane come tomorrow. After that, I shall be in Japan for my intensive language program! I ... do not know how much internet I'll have / how much work I'll be doing / how much traveling I wanna do / OMG JAPAN, so I am officially on a nine-week hiatus starting tomorrow. This ... probably won't last more than a few days. Watch me pop into IRC the moment I get in my apartment to go HEY GUYS I'M IN JAPAN OMG. HOPEFULLY I will take a week or so to settle in and then I will be back on not-hiatus like the addict that I am. |D

... and because I can: calculator meme. Just because I wanted to see how much I spammed before hiatusing.

ETA: This is probably quite a non-issue, but: please don't buy me paid time / icons / anything while I'm on hiatus. The whole censorship LJ debacle has me wondering what to do about my RP accounts (since I've spent (or had spent on me) ... good lord, 200 bucks? Something like that?). And besides, if I have to take the full nine-week hiatus, it'd be silly to pay for my accounts while I'm not using them.

This is not going up in the main comm 'cause it's something I'm curious about just on a me-type basis. Also, I may be cross-posting it to my personal journal eventually. Is it sad that I trust you guys more than my own FL?

[From here]

I can't say it.

Right, so. I fail. Utterly. I should have declared a HIATUS for this past week, but I didn't. Sooo I ended up dropping tons of threads and generally failing and -- argh, argh. D: I am mostly out of the woods now, however. I still have a massive paper due Friday, but I a) already presented on it, and b) have most of it done. Everything else is preeetty small in the grand scheme of things, and I only have one final, so! I am going to be back on top of things starting tonight. After I nap.

So yeah. MASSIVE APOLOGIES for all the epic fail. D: If I dropped a thread with you that you wanna pick up again now that I'm not inundated with work, could you drop me a comment or PM me about it? I would love you forever. thank you. ♥

[from here]

This is only a loan.

[still searching through his pockets]

I really should have asked this earlier, BUT I was mildly retarded and thought "lolz I used to keep track of this so clearly I know this already."

Would your character ping Ishida's spiritual radar? Ishida's v. v. good at sensing stuff, so he gets a LOT but not everything. Anyone with demonic/angelic/outsider/not human goodness in them would be pretty obvious, and he can also geeenerally sense if someone has some sort of innate supernatural ability. That last bit is very vague, however. I basically would like to know in advance if Ishida should be making DEMON accusations at anybody. :Dd

And, er. While we're on that topic! If you don't want Ishida to cry DEMON!11 out in public like that, please please feel free to let me know. I get the general impression that people are amused by it and/or don't mind, but I don't wanna step on anyone's toes. >: Alternately, if you have a burning desire for Ishida to seek you out and yell DEMON@24@1!! at you, you can tell me that too. I'll oblige. :Dd

[LJ is barely letting me back into my own post anymore, so. Uh. If you are threading with me (or if you haven't gotten one from me -- I'm missing so many I'm sorry ;;), could you please drop a comment here? It will be so much easier to keep up with you all in a new post.]

... so, uh. I haven't played Ishida for five months. I have sadly forgotten many of his relationships. Not the super important ones, of course! But I know that a lot has probably slipped through the cracks. If you could do a quick comment with a) what your relationship was to Ishida and b) what he called you (if you remember!), I would love you forever and ever. And also comment back with what he thought of you, hopefully. I-it will be brief, but I shall try to get everyone. :Dd

Not including the other characters for now. Ishida will be tricky enough as is. |D;;

... so uh. This is the character I said I'd NEVER re-app. This is the character I said was also impossible to re-app (for me, anyway), for ... a number of reasons. Lolz. I got some 'splainin' to do! This is mostly for my own edification, as well as being ... well, a justification for something that I said I would never do. Because "I missed him D:" is not a good enough reason for reapping. rly.

( Rambling goes here. )

Anyway, I think that's all I have to say at this point. If I think of anything else, I'll definitely throw it up here. I n-need to go make icons and also RAGE AT M7 for their manga servers not being robust enough. >:(
