nearly break!

Sup dudes. For me, fall break starts this evening. Heck yeah. But first, I need to edit my Great Con paper. Ulp. 

Campus looks like this right now. It's pretty marvelous.





Omnomnom leaves. Look at this - a gorgeous old harmonium!


There's me dressed as a pirate for International Talk like a Pirate Day. I'm making that face because my phone is demented.


Our awesome box fort, with Alex making a sexyface in the window. It's been fortified substantially since I took this picture (and the walls are slanting less) but we're going to have to deconstruct it somewhat in order to build a tank around Elinor's electric scooter for Halloween.


A terrifying bit of the stairwell in the art building. HOLY CRAP THERE'S LIKE FIVE NESTS OF SILENCE IN HERE. What, what am I talking about?



Three of the maquettes I made for my sculpture class.


So I was gonna go home for fall break, but then I didn't work out a ride and I also discovered that there's a whole bunch of fun stuff going on here. So no. I'll miss seeing my family, of course, but I'll Skype them this weekend. It'll be fine. Since I'm staying here, I get to (1. work a few hours at the dorm front desk, (2. watch Sherlock - I promised Matt I would, (3. play Assassin with some other kids in my dorm, (4. go Halloween costume shopping at Ragstock, (5. go to a drag dance in honor of Coming-Out Week, (6. go to the Firefly marathon at Carleton, (7. and wash my sheets. It should be a pretty awesome break. Although our Great Con professor assigned a buttload of reading, which makes me sad. I thought it was supposed to be a BREAK?... Eh, whatever.

a ridiculous amount of drawings

Decided to finally post the enormous backlog I've been procrastinating on. It's hard to remember what I've posted here or not, because sometimes I post stuff on DeviantART and not here, and vice versa, and then I get confused. So apologies in advance if there are repeats mixed in. Here's the pile in no particular order.

New sketch of Juniper from Black Ribbons. The Darklings are called Shadowkind now.

From the Odyssey. Telemachus comforting his mother.


Four from Divergent by Veronica Roth.


Murtagh from the Inheritance cycle. Gah, he was hot in the last book.


King Orrin and Nasuada from the same series, also last book. Spoilers for Nasuada's scars...



Thalia Grace from the first Heroes of Olympus book with her winter camo.


The Them from Good Omens by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett.


Lara Croft from the Tomb Raider franchise.


Nico di Angelo from the Heroes of Olympus series as well. Hawter and hawter with age.


Karou from Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor.


Jem Carstairs from the Infernal Devices trilogy by Cassandra Claire.


Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase in their twenties, being adorable.


Vin from the Mistborn trilogy by Brandon Sanderson, infiltrating Kredik Shaw with a fistful of bloody coins. Because she's a ninja like that.


Jace Wayland from the Mortal Instruments series, being sexy.


Commissioned drawing of Ewin from Pippin's novel (flipped image.)


River Tam from the episode "Safe" of Joss Whedon's Firefly.


Simon Tam, also from Firefly.


Raven from Teen Titans, doing combat training or something.


Now, random elfy!


I dunno.






Rochester!


More random.




My grandpa.


Yet more random.





My DeviantART profile picture. (Should add Whovian to that list now.)


 Very old digital coloring of my character Rosephayne Stone. Like, extremely old.

Mahogany Gabb from the steamverse mess.


Rivenwick and Andros, also from the steamverse mess, doing their usual sexy violent thing.


Kavra Faileas from Irlica. Blighted. Poor guy.


There he is again, before the Blight struck.


Fairly recent drawing of Kyren! Tried to redesign her armor. Didn't work.


Aaand a rough mockup of Ileana's clothes. Her boots are different now though.


*topples over* Woof. There.

Watched 300 last night with some of the other Great Con kids. I was expecting it to be halfway decent, but no, that was a lie. It was fun to make fun of it though. I also played a game of online Diplomacy with some kids from my dorm, and I was Russia, and I lost Moscow because one of my friends accidentally attacked my support-holding army in Warsaw. So mad. It's one of those games where everybody hates each other afterwards. And after all that, I was up until the wee hours of the morning watching Matt play Civilization 5 against Leif and John. Not sure why I thought that was a good idea. Now I legitimately need to do a bunch of homework. Later, dudes.

Goodbye, Ponds. We'll all miss you.


And here I was thinking Rory was literally indestructible. Dangit, Moffat, I love you so much usually, and then you go and do these things and make us cry and then I can't help but hate you just a tiny bit.

THE FEELS!
