I think I'm still too incoherently excited to post about the end of the MaM fanthanx event story but just know that it redeemed everything about this event like. just. I didn't think that was possible but I was WRONG and I'm so glad for it ;w;

KOHAKU SHOWED UP IN MADARA'S FUCKING BACKSTAGE DRESSING ROOM AND THEY PLANNED A TRIP AROUND TOKYO TOGETHER AND LOVE IS REAL AND I'M SOOOOOO HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
okay okay okay I'm normal I swear XD

Really I just wanted to post about potentially designing a new layout......I do love my current one and it was a lot of work to get it to play right with dreamwidth, but like...it's been over a year, I need change XD I wish Component wasn't a livejournal only experience, cuz some of my ideas may or may not be feasible with other layouts...or my skill level :T Either way, I don't even know who I'm gonna feature in it probably double face who am I kidding it's just been like...vague coding ideas........

ngl I wish LJ hadn't shit the bed entirely because I managed to score free paid time there and I would absolutely overhaul my layout there if I could actually, you know, crosspost my entries conveniently. I just don't think I have the dedication to post them all manually :T

tho maybe if I had a fancier layout I would

Also, Kohaku and Madara are soooooo close to rank A+ in JP!!!!


so close I can almost taste it!!!!!!!!
120k fans, here I come!!!! tbh I got them to rank A+ in CN a bit ago and they have more than enough fans in ENG for once it comes to that server, but it feels a lot more earning in JP, you know? I had to manually grind for every single on of those fans, and it's only taken me 2 years. Which like, okay, I guess that's a lot of time, but it's also a sign of my dedication ♥

I'm trying not to dread the climb to rank S....175k fans seems insurmountable, but so did 120k!!!!! I can do it!!!!!!! It's going faster now because 2x/3x fans for White Day, but like...it's not impossible. If I want something, I can make it happen~

edit: forgot to include that I actually got a 5* from my MaM 10 scout ;w; Like of course it's yet another green one, as if I didn't just max the green event one, but I'm not complaining!! I was so excited ;w;


wish we could have unit/idol specific scouts more often...this is great XD

Like I mentioned, I got my ADHD meds back but that doesn't necessarily help me with doing the things I had to do and instead helps me with...

well

Look, I got out of class early on Monday and decided that my time was best spent working an AO3 skin for an upcoming fanfic that Liz, Pat, and I are writing. tl;dr, it's a high school AU set in the mid-00s, aka when we were in high school, and it's going to be a multimedia experience. It's going to be told through a mix of LJ entries & comments, AIM chats, playlists, and prose.

But no one's made a good LJ work skin on AO3. Okay, look, someone made something that they called a LJ skin but it doesn't look anything like LJ.

So. I made my own.

AND IT LOOKS PERFECT!!!!

( some example images )

I even whipped up a tutorial so I could properly share it with everyone on AO3!!! I did no homework but I spent like 5 hours on this!!! XD I only have entries shared for now, even though I DID finish the comments. I just haven't written the tutorial part yet.

Oh, all the hovertext for images works, too. It's all based on LJ from 2005-2007 (ish) from wayback machine backups, old screencaps I have, and my hazy memories of high school. I'm just very please with it and oh my god someone please save me from myself. plz.

Currently working on an AIM work skin as well, but it's taking longer. It's just finicky :TTTT
