A little happy, a little sad. Found a big bunch of books on the history of comics in Napier library that I would LOVE to spend days, even weeks, reading, but because I have to extract arguments from what they is about, I am treating them like evil invading enemies. I dislike academia.

flattered or insulted

Always be flattered. The young woman at the library desk assumed I was an undergrad. It's sad when things like that make you feel good.

Cube, do you go to Napier Uni? I narrowly avioded going there to do marketing and entrepreneurship. Now I'm scouring gumtree in pointless panic, trying to find a flat there when I'm currently 600 miles away. Not much fun. Anyway, I'm afraid I'm gonna have to bail, kiddies. Speak soon. X

I got mistaken for Someone Young recently, too. My heart skipped with joy, so I think I must definitely be very old.

Iamus, I would if I could! I have been creating several vaguely, meant-to-be-pretty things recently. They’re right here *brandishes several sheets of paper at screen* But I’ve also given - well, permanently loaned, sorta - my scanner to someone. Alas! I’m scanning things at a distance these days, is the idea. So stuff builds up. Or something.

Oh, can you show me something pretty, though? You know that I double love it when that happens.

(Also, actually, I have a vague, vaguely collaborative, vague thing to ask you about, young man. I’ve been vaguely thinking about doing something, something particular and fun, and it shouldn’t take much of your time, either.)

Aaaand reading back, that last bit sounds ra-ther pervtacular. I’m talking about art! ART! Honest I am.

*wink*

Meet me round back in teeeeennnnn minutes.

I can't show either, unfortunately. My laptop's all broked up to pieces (kinda) and I can't scan at the mo. I did just buy some Faber brush pens on Suedey's recomendation and I'm totally in love with them. Have been sketching non-stop. When I can scan then I'll be sure to show.

PM me the details of the mysterious and very intriguing-sounding collaboration.

Cube, do you go to Napier Uni?

Only when I have a two-week deadline on something I should have done two years ago.

And copy everyone else here in, ta.

Or I suppose you could just tell me here.

Unless it's secret artist stuff?
 
 
iamus
00:14 / 27.08.06
The suspense is killing me!
 
 
Bed Head
00:16 / 27.08.06
I’ll pm you! Writing the pm now, in fact. Yes, it’s secret artist stuff, but it’s secret artist stuff that barbelith gets to see very soon. And creating a little anticipation is all part of The Trick of secret artist stuff.

See that? That's me. Now. Goodnight all.

That's actually an uncanny likeness there, cube.

Garfield and Top Cat.


Bed Head. Are you composing a sonnet?

It is sent!

Ok, and sorry! That whole thing, the whole sending-and-replying thing, it would have all been much quicker were I not fielding a drunken late night phone call at just the wrong moment. Turned out okay, though.

...Oh, has everyone else gone to bed? I must've overplayed the ART SECRET thing. Boo me.

Hey, are you guys going behind my back? I want some hot art action, you know.
 
 
Bed Head
01:09 / 27.08.06
Hurrah! It is Suedey, KING of today's Fantasy Football action!
 
 
Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!
01:12 / 27.08.06
KING!!!111 Everyone will probably wind up beating me tomorrow, but I'm glad I finally picked a team who scored some points, even if it doesn't contain a guy called Blizzard (BLIZZARD!!!!!) anymore. Hey, for this week on the ILX one I have the second top score right now! Oh yeah.

I bet they all love Chelsea.

Hello Suedey!

All the very best collaborations are threesomes, suedey. You can have some of this hot art action too, if you want. Super-hot, super-secret hot art action. Wow! etc

(Btw, I loved the sound of Blizzard. Why oh why did you get rid of him? Such a superhero name! A MAN with the powers of a BLIZZARD! A bit like one of the Wonder-twins, in fact, but more blowy. WATCH! as he uses his blizzard powers to blow the ball into/away from the net, as required. MARVEL! as he uses wintery *blizzard power* to form a patch of super-skiddy ice right where Thierry Henry is about to sprint! GOGGLE! as he scatters any opposition player trying to use Monkey’s cloud! etc etc)

01:16 / 27.08.06
He never played, man! I mean... c'mon, how can you not play a guy with a name like that? He has his name to live up to, at least.

HOT ART ACTION!!
 
 
Bed Head
01:21 / 27.08.06
That’s right, I really need to start tinkering with *my* team at some point. Half my midfield hasn’t played at all this season! I am teh useless. As I said, I didn’t really understand how it works to begin with. I think I just wasn’t expecting Fantasy Football to all be based on real-world events, somehow.
 
 
Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!
01:25 / 27.08.06
Yeah, I was hoping it would all be based on potential superpowers.

Anyway! TELL ME THINGS AND STUFF! I'm going to be awfully lazy at the moment, because I'm tired and half drunk. I'm glad you liked the sleeves though! eee.

eee. I grin a lot lately.

Suedey? Do you still have that sprite version of your Top Trump guy that I sent you?

If by chance you do, would you be able to upload and post it? For me and my broked computer?
 
 
Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!
01:39 / 27.08.06
FINE

 
 
iamus
01:40 / 27.08.06
