Have We Achieved Deadness?

[amarissia]

Once again, ignore the subject line. Just me MST3K-ing.

GAH, Hotmail, I swear to all the gods if you keep changing your layout for no reason whatsoever every time I step away, I will kill you with a spork. Somehow. I'll figure it out.

Started my school program today, so a little overwhelmed and head is aching a bit, because I sped through everything available to do in both my classes this morning. I have live, streaming lectures tonight and tomorrow night, more discussion board stuff to do, etc., and studying. Studying is now part of my life again. Actually, I never really studied much, so YAY, I'm screwed. :) Thank you all for the encouragement.

Now I just have to figure out a way to talk to my classmates and professors like Amarissia talks to you guys (minus the smut), because I seem to have, out of apprehension, reverted to my old high school habit of talking like a complete robot. Every sentence is 'one does this', 'one must consider that', while my classmates are talking IN ALL CAPS YO or like, y'know, human beings. *facepalm* High-school English flashbacks. Every time I dared answer a question, everyone either stared or asked the teacher to please translate. GAH.

I am actually writing still, but it's going rather slow. I'm still working out where to go with Pendulum, and Genesis has hijacked my new Zangeal short for the purposes of tormenting his ShinRa-issued heterosexual psychiatrist. As he tends to do. I can only promise there will be kink. Genesis would never get in the way of Zangeal sexing, especially the extra-naughty, wee-let's-involve-the-Buster variety.

Zack: "Oh no, no way, I told you I'm not letting anyone stick - "

C'mon, Zacky. Be a team player. You don't see Angeal all wigging about desecrating his sword, do you?

Angeal: *tries hard not to smile*
Zack: *POUT*

Is there a messageboard for your course? I know mine has something similar and people can use that to gain their 10% class participation mark rather than answer questions in lectures (oh the joy of catering to shy bookworms).

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Yep, we have a discussion board, a chat room, all that. Participation in the lecture is actually optional, but it's easier than the alternative, which I think is a writing assignment. Besides, I need practice being around people, even virtually. :)

[chalkbutterfly.livejournal.com]

Pffft, just channel Reno, you should fit right in! Besides, sounding like a human being is over-rated. You get along with the yaoi fangirls, and we are the most temperamental species out there. How hard can "normal" people be?
Oooh, usig the Buster sword? I can't wait for that... ^-^

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Genesis: "I'm hard. Very hard."

Sorry, I couldn't keep him from saying that.

:) Uh-huh. Buster.

Channel Reno? If I now get nervous and do that, i.e. be flirty and perverted and yammer about helicopters, it's your fault!

[chalkbutterfly.livejournal.com]

Yes, Gen darling, and you are a paragon of normality. If you were, the world would be a much happier place, and nobody would ever get any work done. ;)
Well, you said they TYPED ALL IN CAPS YO, and the "yo" made me think of Reno. You could always try channeling Genesis for a confidence booster!
...On second thought, don't. Really.

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Genesis: "Sounds like paradise, hmm?" *tosses hair*

LOL. Channeling Genesis. I'll try it if I feel like getting kicked out for sexual harassment. :)

[dancingxflames8.livejournal.com]

Yay! I wish you luck!

And definitely can't wait for more Zangeal :D

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :)

[nyx4.livejournal.com]

I feel you, that happened a lot in my literature courses, except they were in Spanish XD. But yeah, keep writing like you are and maybe they'll get the clue that there is an actual language with grammar rules out there. Maybe.

Your Genesis always delights me.

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Genesis: *bows elaborately*

Hmm, maybe my stiffness will make them all improve their grammar... :)

[robonun.livejournal.com]

Ah, there's your problem: you're channeling Sephiroth instead of Amarissia. You need to save him for reports and term papers. I wouldn't worry too much about how you sound. Your profs are secretly relieved to read posts that aren't in textspeak or all caps.

Regarding the Buster Sword, there had better be a latex barrier involved or I'm not shaking hands with Angeal any time soon. Just sayin'.

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Yes! It's Sephy's fault!

Sephy: "..."

Thanks. :) Well, teachers have usually found me refreshing, maybe it'll be the same way now.

Angeal: "Are you suggesting I put a condom on the Buster Sword?"

*snicker*

Zack: *hiding*

[emokirby24.livejournal.com]

Yay school! Talking to people is always hard, no matter who they are. Especially if they are kids who don't understand ANYTHING. Heheh. I never really studied either but I managed to get the grades.

Sounds like you will be a busy bee for a while, don't work yourself to hard. =)

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

:) I won't.

[monalovely.livejournal.com]

GO YOU!!!!! I'm so proud of you lovey, and now I'll have someone to panic to (nah, I'm kidding) when I move away and try to settle myself into school......and gak, all that goes with it. AGH! *is terrified*

AHHHH YUMMY KINK!!!! I shouldn't even show you my kink list, it goes on for, oh I don't know, two or three years. Yes, I can measure in time, not just length. It's that ridiculous. XDDDDDD Wingkink, rimming, open shirt, random objects, toys, oh god the toys, double pen, groups and foursomes and on and on and on and on and on........

Hope: *looks terrified*

Snow: "Ohhhh goody." *rubs hands together*

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

You can always flail at me and I'll be there to look bemused and offer trank darts. :)

I don't even dare write some of the filthier things I've imagined...well, maybe sometime. I love the idea of shocking people, and I haven't had much success so far.

*pats Hope* You'll learn to love it, dear.

Cloud: *glomps*

[freyathedark.livejournal.com]

Oh god. I love the sound of kink.

As for talking to normal people... Er... imagine they're all characters of yours? That or bring Zacky along and let him talk to them. Might get you a few weird looks, but such is the price of being awesome :D

My Aspie sister suggests, without reading what I've already written, that you imagine a character that you like, and ask yourself what they would say. GMTA? She also points out that everyone's probably feeling just as awkward as you, and that no one really pays attention when you mess up, not like in high school. Did that help?

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Characters of mine? So, order them to obey me and my kinky brain? Excellent. :)

Yes, it does help. *salutes Aspie sister* I just have to think of a character that would fit the circumstances. Cloud is too bouncy, Tifa too aggressive...maybe Aerith? I like Aerith.

[freyathedark.livejournal.com]

Aerith would work! Or maybe Angeal, cept that might lead to a lot of rants about honor, which, while amusing, prolly isn't the best way to go about talking to people...

[tenxxxryuko.livejournal.com]

You can think that the students are us! Only they aren't perverted people that know Final Fantasy....You can talk about what happened in class instead.....minus a lot of smut.....Uh, wow, that's sorta hard.....How in the world did I survive school again?

BUSTER SWORD PRON!!! XD

I can just imagine the handle being lubed up and just slowly being buried in Puppy's a-

Zack: Shut up!!! Shut up!! Stop dishonoring the Buster Sword like that! Right Angeal?!

Angeal: *covers nose bleed and clush* ....Of course!! *whispers* Can you please get it out as soon as possible?

*snickers*

Studying is overrated.....Because unless you really want to remember the reason why x is equal to whatever number, I find studying useless. Usually, I remember almost everything from the lesson and do well on the tests. Almost never studied in life......Wow, don't I sound full of it today? *shakes head* The chewing gum is getting to me.

You can ask the professor for extra credit if you don't participate in class....Doesn't that count for a percentage of your grade?

Hope you're doing well sweetie! And don't push yourself so hard, alright? *offers my!Cloud* Cloud's gonna give you hugs!

Cloud: *giggle* I like hugs! *smiles* Hug? *opens arms*

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

I had a little more success at last night's lecture. More Amarissia than Robot, which is good.

Yep, your Angeal's about got the gist of it.

Zack: "Not gonna. Uh-uh, no way."
Angeal: *hands himself a tissue*

I haven't told Zack about the spanking yet.

My school doesn't offer extra credit, it's some sort of policy...but there is an option 2 if you can't or don't want to do the live seminars, so that's neat.

*hugses Cloud* Aw, you're just huggable as my Cloud!

Cloud: "I want hugs!"

Here, hug yourself and we can all go into sugar shock from the cuteness. :)

[key-of-ra.livejournal.com]

Hmmmmm, just forget that they're not us if you can. Otherwise, you can start dubbing them as other people. If they really say 'yo' on any regular basis I suggest naming one or more as Reno and avoid giving them any reason to creep on you.

And I didn't notice anything even remotely resembling a robot. It was more of a Rurouni Kenshin vibe to me...

Of course, there's alway the old stand by wherein, if all else fails, you pretend they don't exist. *shrugs* It works for me. So what classes are you taking? (Forgive me if you mentioned it in an earlier post, but I'm working backwards on what I've missed during my computer blackout.)

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

:) I keep worrying I'll forget where I am and start taking the Choir's dictation as usual. I don't want to have to explain Genesis to my professors.

At the moment, Academic Strategies for the Healthcare Profession and Medical Law and Bioethics. Not really enough to keep me stimulated. I'm waiting to hear back from my advisor about whether I can take more classes next term, like three or four.

[key-of-ra.livejournal.com]

*laughs* Trying to explain Genesis to the professors would be rather amusing. *grins*

Ah, sounds like a load of note taking. *hugs* I hope you get something less boring next term.
