Today i watched 3 bad horror movies.

Which were:

Pinochio’s revenge (AWFUL just…awful)

Demonic Toys (bad but ok??)

Puppet Master (ok)

All involving…Toys, why? Because when i was a kid i was scared of them.

I miss the old times when people made movies like “The evil gingerdead man”

and put corny titles like “evil never tasted so good”

But even if they are bad, i like them?!

WHY I AM EVEN TELLING YOU THIS.

But yeah there’s something cool about bad movies, especially the horror ones…Or im just weird i don’t know?

nO, NO, NO, No estamos locos, noooo!!! (bueno, ahora escribiré en inglés por los lectores)

My boyfriend and I love bad horror movies, so I totally recommend to you a spanish movie called “El ataque de los muertos sin ojos” OMFG!! YOU CAN’T STOP LAUGHING!! EVERYTHING IS SO WRONG THERE IS SO FUNNY!!!, WE WERE CRYING, MAN, CRYING!!!

And also this movie WHICH LOOKS LIKE a bad horror movie BUT IT’S NOT!! “The Return of the Living Dead”, very wonderful, very amazing!! Cheap, Corny and very Entertaining!!

(by the way, both movies are called almost the same: The Return of the Evil Dead and The Return of the Living Dead, way to go, people who name and translate movie’s names, could I give you some suggestions? The Return of the Almost Dead, The Return of the Not-So Dead, The Return of the Quite Dead, The Return of the Looks Like and Smell Like but They’re NOT Dead)

Esquire Publishing Men’s Fiction E-Books - NYTimes.com

jamiatt:

“His definition of men’s fiction? Work that is ‘plot-driven and exciting, where one thing happens after another,’ he said. ‘And also at the same time, dealing with passages in a man’s life that seem common.’”

It’s a good thing we lady writers are busy writing books that are boring, and where nothing happens. We wouldn’t want too much excitement. We might faint dramatically. We might have to take to our beds for weeks on end. We are delicate things, we lady writers.

Men’s fiction = fiction where one thing happens after another. Got it. Women’s fiction = IDK, byzantine ecriture feminine ladyplots?

No no, women’s fiction is where women speak to each other. Because that’s not something happening, that’s a thing that Real Men tune out. So anytime you have two ladies conversing—it’s like the plot just STOPS because nobody important is doing anything!

By the way, this is how we get that romantic plots in action movies are terrible, but putting zombies into Pride & Prejudice makes it more awesome.  We keep denigrating the stories, the very lives of women, even as we call ourselves feminists.  I understand and support the need to have more stories of women doing things, but it’s not like the stories of women who lived domestic lives have been told, or at least, they were only told as the background to a man’s story—rarely a story in themselves.

I’m still stuck on the fact that they say Men’s Fiction will be “Work that is ‘plot-driven and exciting, where one thing happens after another,”

ISN’T THAT EVERY BOOK?  Oh my god, these guys.  Seriously, what is wrong with people.

I think I want to pitch a book to a publishing company that way.

“Well it’s plot-driven, where one thing happens after another. It’s quite exciting!”  

Often when people say plot-driven, they mean that it’s not character-driven.  So often, not literary fiction, not something like The Marriage Plot, not something like Jane Austen.  Not having a domestic plot that’s about people sitting around talking and possibly learning/growing without a lot of external adventure or mystery or other kinds of genre plotting.  And of course, television shows like sitcoms are frequently more character-driven than plot-driven.

So no, every book is definitely not plot-driven.  Many of my favorite books and movies aren’t plot-driven and my writing is often not plot-driven either.  That said, most of the canons that get popular in fandom are very much plot-driven.

And the conversation can get very gendered very quickly, which is why it’s like, well, MEN want PLOTS but women, WHATEVER.  

Women don’t know what the hell they want. They just cry, and buy shoes, and worry about fashion, men and age. Really, don’t you see tv? All I know about my gender is there! Writers? Scientifics? Soldiers? All men because women like that, they don’t exist. The tv told me so.

Also, the world is always talking about women, gays, people of color, trans*, minorities… but when they will talk about men? when they will talk about white cis straight grown up able men and their points of view and dreams and hopes? their fight over the years? Oh my god, I’m getting emotional again… sob… sob… gosh… That’s why I’m very glad they decided to separate LITERATURE FOR MEN AND FOR WOMEN. They should paint the books in blue and pink, so nobody gets confused.

Battleangel25 asked:

“Hi! how the interview went? :D Also, i totally forgot the Sherlock fandom FFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!! HOW COULD I, THAT’S BASIC, I’M IN THERE HELLOWWWWWWWWW!!!, going to edit the damn thing (I mean, my opinion) xD Best Regards!!”

thebritishteapot answered:

ahahah XD Never mind! I’ve just finished the interview (I asked her to send it via e-mail). It’s 9 pages long… wah…. and I have still a lot of love for the fandom in me… I’ll send it tonight but if I’m not wrong the journalist writes in the Sunday’s insert… I’ll let you know when the article comes out, even because I’m sure she will cut it and I’m afraid she can change my words…

Battleangel25 replied:

(Damn it tumblr, why I cannot reblog asks anymore? ;__; And I know it’s not missing e or xkit’s fault)  Well, she has to cut it and change some things, because she needs to adapt it to their journal or magazine. But I think before she publish it, she must ask you to read it and approve it. Well… that’s what they do with celebrities and important people, but since you are just another “clone fan”… Yes, that’s how they see us! I totally understand your fear. I can picture them with their smug and condescending smiles, reading your points of view, and saying: “oh, crazy fandom… put this article in the last page, below the soap advertisement”.

thebritishteapot:

Some days ago a popular italian newspaper, ‘La Repubblica’, published an article about fanfictions.

Here a translated (and a bit cut) version:

The concept of fanfiction has always existed in Literature. It happens when a character become so powerful that a single book isn’t enough. Orlando, for example. The story of his adventures, from century to century, spreads like a huge protean work, written by God knows how may hands. […]
We could give a lot of examples. Some of them are really value, others are merely literary games that come from the question ‘what if…’ […]
What we mean today with ‘fanfiction’ is a real para-literal phenomenon, broken from internet that has its origins in the current obsession of the fans towards their idols.
Amateurs works, gifts, without any ambition but hail.
To understand the fanfictions you have to keep in mind two dates: 1975 Rocky Horror Picture Show, 1977 Star Wars. Two stories that turn in costume phenomenona, become life-style, a way of thinking. They impose obsessions, fears, dreams but also make-up and costumes. But mostly they survive the time of their representation. […]
The fan becomes a clone, he empathizes his hero, dresses up like him and behaves like he thinks he could behave, or she, in some situations that can be ordering an hot dog or being questioned in trigonometry or meeting other characters like him, spilled from another story. This habit in dress-up is called cosplay and it’s a very widespread activity among young Japanese people. They got up like mangas’ or videgames’ characters or like captain Kirk and other fellows of the Enterprise crew, these devoted people roleplay, do meet-up, walk on Sunday in Harajuku, a Tokyo’s neighborhood, for the joy of happy tourists. [blah blah talking about the Comiket in Tokyo twice a year and cosplayers again, Dragonball and doujinshis].

Most of them have more erotic contents than the original one. They’re split in specialities, according to the audience. Homosexuals, heterosexuals, lesbians. There’s a pretty interesting and famous chategory, Yuri and Shoujo-ai: even talking about gay relationships with males characters, they’re addressed to a feminine target. Women that find arousing sex between young boys.
The doujnshis are fanfiction to all intends and purposes. As are the stories inspired by the music stars [blah blah Justin Bieber and Nirvana].
Is it plain that without internet fanfictions would not exist. Heaven of non-hierarchic meeting, global temple of that religion who abolishes the copyright, in the internet we are all equal and everything is everyone’s. In this aesthetic anarchy, where every awe and decency towards the capably is quashed, anyone can be author without shame.. These awkward literal proofs, which suggested to an editor would be immediately thrown out of the window, are kept in specific websites and swallowed up by that kind of person who buys on eBay the chewing-gum chewed by Britney Spears. A huge audience, totally derived from the original’s fame. Whether it is a rock band, a Japanese comic or a novel. Twilight and other Stephanie Meyer’s books, Harry Potter and in all its forms or The Lord of the Rings are the most dreamt and reinvented. Obviously this big amount attracts all the publishers who’re looking for the success [blah blah about a Twilight fanfiction].
Sometimes, when they present my last book, someone asks: Are Davide and Anna (the two main-characters) engaged? Or: has the scooter be stolen from him? I used to reply: I don’t know, they’re not real. But maybe it’s too simple. Maybe exists a little corner where the characters hide, a limbo between the author’s imagination and the reader’s wish, where other things are possible. From now I’ll reply: you tell me. Or even better, write it!

(Sorry for the bas translation, but we had no time enough)

Here the original article: click

As you can see, this is an offensive (and bad-informed) unfounded statement towards every fanwriter, every fanreader, every cosplayer, fan and fandom.

I don’t need to remind you the pleasure of share our interests, publish beautiful works, share our opinions and feedbacks with the author himself!

We accept critics but no misinformed and ingnorant attacks like this one.

We’re going to collect signatures to send a reply to this journalist (?) on this Saturday.

If you have facebook, please visit this page. It’s in italian, but all we ask to you is to leave your full name, your age and your occupation, so we can add it to this letter.

We’ve already collected about 50 signatures and we’re expecting to collect more and more of them.

Let’s show the power of the united fandoms.

Please.

(It’s not a fake, trust your teapot, many of them are friend of mine and I signed too)

Thank you to cuil-chan who helped me in this speedy translation

(Damn it… I couldn’t finish this yesterday, and now it’s to late… Well, might as well I should post this and move along)

I’ve read the translation, may I share with you guys my points of view?

Everything before and until “in the internet we are all equal and everything is everyone’s.” I see no harm, no insult. The author of this article is merely stating facts (and she’s kind of disinformed: she forgot the Star Trek fandom and I should add the X-Files fandom. -ETA: And the Sherlock Fandom of course, the first one!- She didn’t write “yaoi”, which I think is more accurate than “shonen-ai” in this context. Also, doujinshis ARE and ARE NOT fanfiction: doujinshi are comics -related to other major comics- made by fans. Fanfiction is… fanfiction.)  The only objection I have is “The fan becomes a clone”. Well, that fan is not a clone. HE LOOKS LIKE, BUT HE’S NOT. I know the fans are all the same for the Lady Author, but they’re not. So I would have used: “The fan becomes his own interpretation of his hero (and a lot of those interpretations are so alike, that they look like clones)” That would be more accurate. XP

Here is when we start:

“in the internet we are all equal and everything is everyone’s.”

Yes and No.

Yes, we all have the same opportunities to share our works, our thoughts, our opinions and we use others people’s works, thoughts and opinions to construct our own works, thoughts and opinions. We share everything here.

No, because, like in real life, we build structures, we build hierarchies, ranks, so some people are more recognizable to others -more “famous”- because of their contribution to the community: maybe they are well known artists, or writers, or thinkers, or trolls, whatever. And so, it’s more likely their opinons would be taken in account more than someone else’s opinions who has not that influence. Also, not everything is everyone’s.  Authors always defend their works, they state “Hey, that’s mine!”. Works and opinions have a source, so there’s a kind of non written law that says you can use everything as long as you respect the source (so its more likely you won’t have problems with the authors or other users… but of course, some stuff like easy jokes, reaction gifs or certain memes are more difficult or impossible to source. It’s a wild land here.)

In this aesthetic anarchy, where every awe and decency towards the capably is quashed, anyone can be author without shame… These awkward literal proofs, which suggested to an editor would be immediately thrown out of the window,

DUH!! Of course!! that’s copyrighted work in the first place, so you’ll need permission from the author and paid the rights to publish it!! Don’t you understand how the world of fanfiction works, lady author? Nobody will take their fanfiction to publishing houses!  But… I do think fanfiction is a good way to sharpen your skills, to understand your audience and to start your writing career, if that’s what you want. So, this is a Yes and No:

Yes, that it’s true: With thousands of stories that look like clones, with the same themes and same endings, of course you’ll need a more profound bond work, and more than being popular in internets to sell your work, if that’s what you’re want to do.

No, that’s not true: They’ve published  X-Files books, Star Trek books and  Star Wars books.  What are they ? 0.o We just don’t know … (they look like FANFICTION TO ME). -ETA: And a lot of related and derivative works from Sherlock Holmes-

are kept in specific websites and swallowed up by that kind of person who buys on eBay the chewing-gum chewed by Britney Spears.

Swallowed up… Lady Author means like something you don’t want, but you’ll have to cope… Well, I enjoy my fanfiction recs. I don’t swallow them up. If I’m reading a fanfiction and I think “nah, I don’t like it”, I stop and I go to the other. I’m not in a kind of torture device by reading them. I enjoy fanfiction and I’ve found excellent works. If you don’t enjoy them, Lady Author, that’s your taste. But don’t tell us what our tastes should be.

That kind of person who buys on eBay the chewing-gum chewed by Britney Spears… This insult is so moronic and idiotic as this one I’m making: You, lady author, just want to stir up the internets so you sell more of your stupid books, surely you think “The fandom is so idiot, except my fans”, but you’re nothing but a fanficcer of other great authors, and you suck. XP

Did lady author do her research? Because that article is so lazy. I’m pretty sure she tought: “I’m gonna ask my kid/niece/neighborg’s kid so they tell me what the fandom is, yes. And wiki. Wow, i made an article.”

Well guys, I just wanted to take this out of my chest. And, well… I’m working with what you’ve told us, so if you dismissed important information from the article… then my “amazing” reply :B won’t be so “amazing” BHAAHAHAHAHA!! :B

But whatevs… lady author didn’t do her research, why should I? XP

lascocks:

I had time to kill at work so I made an influence map for you guys just to clear up any questions about my style.

wha-WHAT-WHAT IS THIS AMAZINGNESS??? WHAT HOW WHEN… LASCAUX THIS IS SO WONDERFUL AND BRILLIANT AND WOW AND ALSDKFHALSDKFALSDKFLSD!!

OMG, this fox-arian person, what an amazing thing to do… HOW CAN WE FORCE, uh, I mean, how can I, as an audience, tell more artists that we want to see this from them? Because THIS MEME, I LIKE IT!!! **CRASH** ANOTHER ONE!!! XD XD XD

And OH, SO WONDERFUL INFLUENCES, LASCAUX!! I-I don’t know who the authors are -my shame, *opening wiki to know*- but YES, I’VE ENJOYED FLCL (those are the guys from Gainax), dexter’s lab (Genndy Tartakovsky :B it’s in the intro, I didn’t remember XP), gorillaz (Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett), spy vs spy (Antonio Prohías), Ren and Stimpy (John Kricfalusi). I haven’t read Persépolis (Marjane Satrapi) but I want to! and I don’t know who are the other ones :((( but everything, even the wood carving and the skull is perfect.

Hey, I can even read this as a fortune teller read cards! XD XD: You’re a carefree person, you despise political correctness and uptight attitudes. You celebrate the madness, the irony, the absurd inherent to the human condition, but you also appreciate the beauty in the form. You feel empathy and you see that, beyond our differences, we all are the same in the end.

How was that, ah? could I have a career in fortune telling? XD XD

I spent the morning un-following a bunch of very talented people on Tumblr.

That feels like a really weird thing to say. And it is.

It was nearly a dozen different artists in all, and they were all extremely talented. Part of what moved me to Follow them in the first place was their skill. In…

I agree with this so much. I watch many different people of varying skill level and focus, but the defining thread is that they produce original work and have original stories in their heads. I like young artists a lot for this reason; sometimes the stories aren’t the best but the feeling and brain power behind them is there.

Fanartists can do incredible work too, but as a consumer of art it’s as significant as the difference between eating a meal and eating someone else’s vomit.

Original storytelling and the forms of creativity you’re talking about is another artistic muscle in itself. Some artists use the hell out of it, and some don’t. It’s great that you prefer original storytelling but calling artist’s work vomit is over the top.

+1 to @kakimari 

Why would you follow someone in the first place knowing willingly they did not create the sort of art you find pleasing, then spend your energy deleting them, making a post about deleting them and adding some sort of BOO BOO FAN ART bs masquerading as thoughtful commentary?

also, I am not sure what’s worse: the original post in its entirety or the “:P” at the end of the post.

“:P”

“:P”

stop. 

obviously not everyone should like fanart or choose to engage with canon works by producing fanworks in response. it’s absolutely the op’s prerogative not to enjoy the majority of what they’ve seen or even all of it, though i think the latter is a bit excessive—because to write a category off in its totality is kind of simplistic and, you know, you’re probably missing out on cool stuff by painting everything with the same brush. but that’s so fine. anyone can like or dislike what they want. (but when they state it like this, anyone can agree or disagree all they want, too. right?)

sure, it makes me a little sad on principle to see that attitude, because in the end i feel like art of any kind is a conversation and no work exists beyond the realm of outside inspiration, be it classical or current, crossover or alternate universe. if you’re not engaging, if you’re not conversing, if you’re not setting up a dialogue—or understanding that creation occurs in reaction rather than in a vacuum of ‘pure’ inspiration that springs, fully formed and virginal from the artist without any influence from elsewhere—then art’s going to be really, really lonely. and probably not as good, either. but most importantly, for a lot of people, it’s not going to be as fun. 

the passion is what counts, isn’t it? not everyone should go into something thinking ‘how can i make this legitimate? publishable? MINE?’ not everyone wants to. in fact, that kind of thinking would make me stop creating, period. but i think ultimately there’s no reason to argue that point with the op or anyone who thinks as the op does, because again, it’s their right to hold to those beliefs, whether or not a lot of people agree or disagree with them. the point is that they put it out there in a way that said here’s why i’m right and you’re wrong in the first place. and of course, people are going to take offense at that, because…there’s no right way to eat a reese’s peanut butter cup. 

beware of bad english time below

I think the reason people are getting offended by this is because of the way it was written. Very one-sided, to be honest. And very unfair.

all this discussion makes me think of the war we have at our fine arts academy

on how manga is a lower kind of storytelling than the rest of the comics around the world
on how comics in general are lower kind of art than traditional model drawing
on how drawing in general is a lower kind of art than painting

and mostly, on how pop culture is a devil and you should never mention it between the true artists.

but here is the drill, generalization is a stupid thing
there is creativity in fanart, I’ve seen some pieces of fanart more creative than works some of my colleagues do at freakin fine arts academy.

It doesn’t matter what your source material is. It doesn’t matter what medium you use. Everything can be an art if you want to make it into a piece of art. I though the 20th century already tought as so, all this hurricanes going on in the art history. But heck, apparently I was wrong.

Yet
Neil Gaiman took a comic form, very ungreatful  medium at the time when he started writting his scripts for Sandman. And he turned it into something so creative, that I have no words

Most of the super-popular now manga artist were starting by drawing fanart. Actually, fanarting is something so natural in Japan that it almost hurt to watch in comparishion to Europe and USA and stuff.

An if we really want to go that far, Raphael for the first years of his artistic career was practically taking motives and styles of painting from Michaelangelo and Leonardo. He was fanarting them. He was a fanboy (no, like srsly, he was). Therefore I think we should all take poor Raphael and kick him out of the art history books.

I see swegener and alexds1 have original webcomics. I wonder, have they received fanarts for their comics? How do they consider that fanart? Do they consider those fanarts as a way of communication between author and reader, so the authors can see how their own stories are received by the public they want to appeal? Also as a kind of endearment, since their original work reached other people’s hearts and minds? Or do they consider those fanarts repulsive, unthinking, uncritical and vomit too?

somachiou reblogged this from battleangel25 and added:

Um….WOW!!  my art in it, at 01:24 !!!

Thanks battleangel25 share this video to me. :D

Thanks to you!! Thanks for making such beautiful fanart!! XD XD XD Best Regards Somachiou!!

To ShittySherlockArt:

Hi, guys! I’ve just found you because of 1 awesome fanart of Sherlock. XP

I usually avoid shittyart sites because… they have very shitty art :B :B. Going through your blog is a nightmare, where you don’t know if you should run or laugh or cry - I laughed XD-; plenty of this art are… very terrible… yet, I’ve found 2 or 3 that I said: “hey, they’re not that bad!” But of course, that’s just an opinion.

I agree with you guys about that it’s the fandom who makes itself look bad. This blogs only features things that exist out there, so people need to understand that sending you hate, or telling you’re doing it wrong, doesn’t solve anything (Shitty art will always exist, they can’t stop that and so they can’t stop you… and it’s YOUR BLOG)  And “critiquing art”… mmhh… A lot of this art just can’t be saved, JUST CAN’T!! ;___;

I’ll always support to credit the artists for their works, reblog from them or source the art… BUT IN THIS CASE, I think is a blessing not knowing that. XP

And about the selection: you guys are doing a great job by finding these XD. And I think artists should check this blog, so they can remember when they started XD XD haahahahahaha! YES! plenty of artists start like this!! It’s the constant practice and experience what makes them better! So, I say, don’t feel bad for this, learn from yours and everbody else mistakes and find your own voice!

I just like to point out something: you’re featuring a work from rwkorea. I’d like to say that their concept is a mix between Sherlock (or Avengers) and those guys of LMFAO and their song “I’m sexy and I know it”. So, since I consider that concept awesome, I don’t think is bad! For me, it’s so bad and cheesy and outrageous, that it’s good! But of course, that’s just an opinion, a matter of taste (and I’m not talking about good or bad taste, just taste), so I won’t stop you if you still want to feature rwkorea’s works here… but you might want to take that into account.

Would you mind if sometimes I contact you to know the source of some fanart? I’ve tried to find the fanart of that Sherlock speaking in italian with the cape and the guns and amurrica flag, but google images doesn’t let me… and that’s the only way I know to find sources D’:

I don’t know if I should follow… maybe I won’t because I really-really-really-REALLY DON’T LIKE shitty art XP (except my own), but I’ll be checking on you constantly, because I think you could have some wonderful stuff! (You say potato, I say tomato XD)

So as a token of my love, please accept these wonderful manips I made. In these works I spend so many  hours, tears, sweats and bloods that I’ve passed out -well, actually it was 3 hours and I didn’t pass out but I had fun XD-, so please, let me dedicate these works specially to you guys and to redsharlach (check her amazing tag of manliness) because without her, this couldn’t have existed. So I totally blame her. XD

Please forgive my bad english, it’s not my frits language. Best Regards, guys!

-But I love you, Mariana Eufrosina Fernanda!!! Our love is more legit than all the morals!! I need to have you in my arms!! I need to feel you!!!
-Noo,  Francisco Roberto Eustacio!!  I desire you too, but we musn’t!! Your father can hear us, and then he will disinherit you!!
-I don’t care about inheritances!!! I care about you, Mariana Eufrosina Fernanda!!
-Then take me, Francisco Roberto Eustacio!! Take me hard and make me feel like a woman!!!

 BHAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! OMFG I JUST CAN’T!!! xP DETH

octopirecipes:

ahh a fresh batch.

Do you see this girl? this cute little girl? XD you might think she couldn’t harm a fly… you might think she’s all giggles and fun… BUT NO.

LOOK AGAIN. LOOK AT WHAT SHE’S DRINKING. YES. THOSE ARE HER FOLLOWERS’ TEARS. SHE DRINKS HER FOLLOWERS’ TEARS. AND SHE ENJOYS IT. AND SHE DOESN’T FEEL REMORSE.

You know why she’s here, in tumblr? She’s not paid or anything. She likes it. She gets off on it. The “angstier” the drawing, the more she gets off. And you know what? One day just drawing won’t be enough. One day we’ll be standing around a pool of tears and Octopi will be the one who put it there. -because she filled it with her followers’ tears, jsyk-

SO BEWARE. BEWARE OF THIS GIRL BECAUSE SHE CAN BE DANGEROUS. VERY VERY DANGEROUS. And very cute too!! XD XD XD XD

I’m working on the 14th (“Retrieving”) and 15th (“Capturing”) piece in my series “Sherlock after the Fall”, but I could do with suggestions for more motifs.

So, is there anything you want drawn that could fit in the series? It’d be lovely to have  two sets of eight drawings before I venture on to “Returning”, which will be a series in itself with (at least) four drawings planned.

So far we’ve had:

1. Watching
2. Hunting
3. Pining
4. Surviving
5. Hurting
6. Performing (I)
7. Plotting
8. Dining
9. Disguising
10. Bleeding
11. Running
12. Breaking
13. Performing (II)

I love so much your Sherlock after the Fall series, Khorazir! :D I was thinking… since a lot of them are pretty angst, would you like to make something funny? I know Sherlock is suffering, but there should be some times where he’s laughing, or even enjoying this situation, don’t you think? (enjoying the suffering? the sadistic in me is showing) Maybe it’s good to make some contrast. Of course, it’s up to you, I’m merely making suggestions, and I do respect your point of view about your series.

How about “laughing in a sadistic way“…? I’m  joking XP. How about Sherlock laying in the grass watching the skies and clouds and one of them has the form of Jawn? and that makes him smile? or giggle? (Oh, that could be called “giggling” XD)

Or “dreaming”? How about Sherlock having a dream about John (it’s not necessary to be a sexual dream, but I’ll be so grateful if it is, I mean, it can be a dream about their domesticity… or he can be day-dreaming about that… “remembering”?)

I don’t know what’s Mycroft position here in your series… Does he know where is Sherlock? Does he miss him? Would you like to draw something about the brothers? Maybe “watching II”, where Mycroft is watching Sherlock with survellaince cameras…

I’m so sorry for all the babble, you’re free to pick one of the suggestions, or ignore them all, I don’t mind :D. I just hope at least one of them had striken your fancy XD or help you to give you an idea you like. XD XD Best Regards, Khorazir!

ETA: OOH!! I hadn’t watched the other suggestions! it’s good to know more people want “dreaming” or “sleeping”! and one of them wants to see Mycroft too! XD XD talking about being in tune with the fandom XD

nautilusl2:

The Pirates: Band of Misfits came out yesterday and I saw it with boyfriend. I knew that Martin Freeman was a voice actor in it but I didn’t know which character.

Sure enough the Pirate Captain’s first mate and right hand man is Martin Freeman. And though this pirate didn’t have a name from the moment he spoke all I could hear was John John John. 

Though the relationship between Pirate Captain and Pirate John isn’t similar to John and Sherlock, it was similar enough that I kept getting Reichenbach Feels. I don’t want to give the ending away or anything but all through out the movie it felt like Reichenbach. It’s like, no matter the movie, John is always going to be main characters protector, the one who worries and comes through in the end. It was terribly sweet and just adorable.

I KNOW!!! I KNOW RIGHT??? XD XD I watched those two and I was like D’AWWWWWW!! so beautiful bromance!! Also, the movie is hilarious! Now, the only complain I have about that movie is that, IN MY FUCKING COUNTRY, AT LEAST, IN MY FUCKING CITY, THEY DIDN’T BRING SUBTITLED COPIES!!! ALL THE MOTHERFUCKING (sorry-so sorry) COPIES OF THE MOVIE, ALL THE SHOWINGS WERE DUBBED!!!! AAAAAARRRGGGGGGGGHHH1!!, THAT’S WHY I DIDN’T WATCH TINTIN!!! BECAUSE ALL THE SHOWINGS WERE DUBBED IN SPANISH!!!

NOW, i truly respect the hard work of dubbers, I appreciate them so much, I do love the Simpsons and Futurama voices in latinamerican spanish, and I really liked their work in this movie, it was beautiful!! BUT, I WANT THE CHOICE TO SEE THE MOVIES IN THEIR ORIGINAL LANGUAGE!! AND YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAID WHEN i ASKED THEM “WHY DIDN’T YOU LEAVE AT LEAST ONE SHOWING WITH ITS ORIGINAL LANGUAGE?” THEY SAID: BECAUSE IT’S A MOVIE FOR CHILDREN (LIKE I’AM A WEIRDO AND A PERVERT FOR BEING A GROWN UP AND SEEING MOVIES FOR CHILDREN -AND THEY HAD A 11.00 PM SHOWING!! KIDS SHOULD BE SLEEPING AT THAT HOUR!!!!!-), THEY ABSOLUTELY DIDN’T CARE IT WAS MARTIN FREEMAN, HUGH GRANT, DAVID TENNANT, RUSSEL TOVEY, SOME THE ORIGINAL VOICES, they just told me to fuck off in better words… I feel so bad, I really wanted to watch it IN THEATERS, with the original voices… ;_______; i’m so sorry for the rant, I just wanted to vent off these stupid feelings…

Oh my god, I just figured out the best way to learn a second language.

I am reading Chinese Sherlock/John fanfics, and my vocabulary is already SO much bigger. Sure lot’s of the words are not things one would use in everyday conversation (AKA sexy words), but are still important. 

And there are a ton of weirdly practical words that I somehow never learned that come up over and over in Sherlock fics. For example, “upstairs,” “a case,” “detective,” “sincere,” “passionate.”

Seriously, I recommend this for second language students who are also nerds! It’s super fun.

you just described how I got into english. well, fic, Ark lyrics and.. pokemon.

I’m so very sorry for butt in (I can’t help it, two of my favorite artist, ASDOFIAHSDFS!! XD XD) YES, I DO AGREE!! I LEARNED ENGLISH BY READING FANFICTION!!! I started like… 16 years ago… COUGH  COUGH!!! because I bought a comic book “Generation X”, I remember… and I translated it word by word with a dictionary :P.  I think I did that in three days.  The second comic book was an issue of “X-Force” (with Cable, Feral, Shatterstar… I can’t remember what other guys where there), and that one I translated it in two days!! IMPROVEMENT!! and then english class in school, and courses over the years, and then voilá!! english! poor english but still english! But the real stuff, the one with I learned more words, it was with fanfiction XD XD (from Card Captor Sakura, and from Smallville, bhahahahaha!!)

lascocks:

My biggest pet peeve about pornographic fanart is the lack of flesh presence.

Its not even about people being drawn too fit and skinny, its when there’s just no visual evidence of two surfaces making contact.

I could set this example by squishing these two KFC rolls together.

AHAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!!! XD XD XD OF COURSE, OF COURSE!! (And thanks so much for that excellent example, Lascocks XD XD) Oh god, I need to find more fanart like that!! a fanart that take no prisioners, make no concessions, just show us the blunt heads of squish (sorry my bad english, not my frist), I mean, show us EVERYTHING!!!

But-but… I think it can be difficult for some people, I don’t know… I mean… some artists don’t like porn, or maybe the’re shy and they don’t want to draw porn because they are scared about what people would think about them… (don’t be shy, artists, YOU DO WHAT YOU WANT!! WE LOVE PORN!! THERE ARE PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT APPRECIATE YOUR PORN!!!) maybe some of them still haven’t seen a… eh.. uh.. penis… in living flesh, HAAAHAHAHAAH! I DON’T KNOW!!, there’s a lot of stuff going on to justify the lack of eh… uh… penis in fanart porn, specially when a lot of people see the female nudity as something normal, but the male nudity as something that cannot be showed (tits and eh.. uh.. the lower part, that’s ok to show, but balls and penis NO)

nahualli:

Quiero ser ilustrador de cuentos infantiles, así que ayer estuve hojeando el 19º Catálogo de Ilustradores infantiles del FONCA. Había cosas geniales, pero me hizo ver que necesito trabajar mucho para encontrar un estilo que se apegue a esa rama…

Osea nada de cosas gays D:

Seguiré buscando… porque tengo que hacer un portafolio completo y nuevo para mayo, o me correrán a patadas cuando intente entrar a la UNAM. 

Nada de cosas gays… y se te ocurre pintar a Sherlock y John. ¬_¬

¡¡No te creas!! XD XD Pero… esto me hace pensar… No lo digo por tí, sino en general… en illustraciones para niños, se puede pintar a un hombre y una mujer tomándose de la mano, siendo noviecitos, y si acaso un besito tímido. Pero, si son dos tipos, o dos mujeres, eso mismo que está permitido ver en una pareja hetero, está penadísimo para una pareja gay. Y yo pienso, ¿cómo podemos hablar de apertura y aceptación hacia los demás, si no empezamos a hablarles de apertura y aceptación a los niños?

Pues qué cosas, dijo doña Chona… y pues ¡mucha suerte en la UNAM!! XD XD XD
