catching up: I'm trying to do it right

[aredblush]

I don't want bad/sad/depressing rl stuff to ruin a happy entry so
Let's talk about nice things that makes my days a little brighter:

1. My tutor finally gave me the transfer papers! I have to meet her tomorrow to finalize my curricula and then I'll be able to do the last 20 exams and get this damn degree \o/

2. This came up on my twitter

They are the Panic Boys! I have photographic evidence!

3. Speaking of Panic as animals, I have 600ish words of Cat!AU in a googledoc. You want an itty bitty little snippet? Here you go!

"Yes," she laughs, "you're coming with me". The hold she has on Brendon tightens slightly and she moves her face to look at the lady, "Can I take him home now?"

"You'll just have to sign some papers, Miss..."

"Greta," the girl says. Brendon thinks the name suits her. He bats a ringlet of her hair with his right paw to show her he likes her name.

Greta grabs his paw "You like it?" and OK, Brendon is going to have the coolest cat-owner ever. He meows and flexes his left paws against Greta's blouse.

Greta beams.

And now one of you has to come forward and offer themselves as a sounding board/beta/cheerleader and HELP ME! I had to sketch scenes like a freaking storyboard because words are not my thing OK? This things keeps growing in my head but fuck if I can translate it to paper in word-form!

Also, raffie79 is an enabler who must know that ":D" and ":)" are my kryptonite.

She said " I REALLY want a picture of cat!Brendon and cat!Spencer snuggling together, when Spencer finally gave in to Bden's advances. Brendon's purring and Spencer looks at him as if he's not touched by this at all when, actually..."

My answer was "... actually, Spencer can't resist anylonger. In the beginning, Spencer didn't know what to do of this little, scruffy kitten who seems incapable to understand that every respectable cat's job is vegetate in a sunny spot and get a manicure (Ryan's words, not his) on the sofa's new cover. Brendon never sits still, he jumps from a piece of furniture to the other, has made of the potted ficus in corner his favourite punching-ball, meows along with the radio and says that when he grows up he wants to be Simba, but only if Spencer accepts to be his Nala. Spencer has never been so grateful to be a half persian; if he had been a naked cat (like the one who lives at the end of the road and goes around waving his tail like a snake) everyone would have noticed ho much he was blushing.
Now that Brendon understand that there's no need to steal cookies form the jar, tear the pillows apart to find the perfect feather to play with, or undo the scarf Greta just finished to give Spencer his favourite yarn-ball back, spending time with Brendon has become, if not relaxing, at least pleasing. And as much as Spencer tries to show how little the press of Brendon's side against his own matters, when Brendon falls asleep with his face tucked against Spencer's throat and starts purring as he dreams, Spencer can't stop himself from twining his tail with Brendon's."

And since, as I already said, I'm better at drawing than writing, this is what came out :)



This came out alright, but what I'm really proud of is the sofa!

Thoughts?

OH MY GOD SO CUTE! The grey one almost reminds me of my one little kitty - http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3472/3351171303_84b6dd6f5f_o.jpg

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

Thank you :D
But your kitty is way cuter *coos*

[of-silverandsky.livejournal.com]

omg the cat at the back

[amadrabbit.livejournal.com]

Awww!!! You should've seen the look of delight that appeared on my face once I refreshed my fpage!
I wanna cuddle with them! :D

(I might be getting a kitten and she has blue eyes and a bitch!face and I'm going to name her Spencer. Mwahaha!!!)

[amadrabbit.livejournal.com]

And I just noticed Greta playing the piano in the background! :D \o/

Spencer is totally Brendon's Nala, btw. :]

[starsandsands.livejournal.com]

KITTIES~
♥
(kittens are the way to my heart, fer srz)
:D

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

:D Thank you!

(kittens! They own my soul!)

Those snippets are so adorable! And the picture made me coo at the screen like a crazy person!

The sofa does look really amazing, and so does the piano. I'm so in awe with your crazy art skills :D

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

I induced cooing! \o/ You're not crazy! At least not as much as me... I was coing at them while I was painting them! Now that is crazy behaviour.
Those snippets are kind of faily, but it's not like I'm a writer. Plus, I wrote them for fun, so I'm pleased with them anyway :)

I'm so very happy with how the sofa looks :D The piano... I could have done it better, but I didn't want it to be too into focus, and it was a last-minute decision to put it there, so I'm ok with it, too :)

[sunsetmog.livejournal.com]

This has just made my day about a thousand times better, honestly. I love your cat pictures, thank you! ♥

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

I'm happy I could (unknowingly) help :D
I firmly believe that kittens can make anything better :)

[bergann.livejournal.com]

Awww the drabbles and art are so adorable! Catfic, I need it nowwww. *urges you to continue* :DDD

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

Thank you :D
Catfic would be wonderful... if I had some kind of writing ability /o\ I'm pretty sure it will end up being very faily, but at least I'm having fun writing it :)

AAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW *_________________________*
Di mio gradimento? Non credo che mi riprenderò mai più, il disegno è MAGNIFICO tutto finito e colorato, e i pezzi di fic in inglese rendono benissimo tanto quanto mi erano piaciuti in italiano *___* <= occhietti ipnotici :D :D :D continui a scrivere, vero? :D :D lol! e poi sarebbe così bello se qualcuno facesse delle iconcine anche con questi due kittens!! *_* ok ok sono un'essere terribile, la smetto di hintarti cose povera donna, sono una schiavista haha!
GRAZIE MILLE per aver ascoltato i miei hints e aver materializzato quell'immagina snugglosissima, ti adoro <33 hihi
ps uh, si, il divano è disegnato veramente a doc :-o wow. io al massimo so disegnare gli omini con le stanghette e le teste rotonde... XD

un brindisi per un mese PIENO di disegni di brencer kittens da parte tua! :D
LOL LOL.
♥

uh, dimenticavo! non posso aiutarti come beta però so che sulla nostra comm preferita c'è una lista, magari ti viene utile :)
http://community.livejournal.com/failboatsinlove/3289.html

e ancora dimenticavo XD se vuoi postare tutto ciò anche sulla comm fbsit ci fa piacere :D sia disegni che fic in inglese sono benvenutissime (quando ci sarà hihi)

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

Sono così felice che ti piaccia :DDD *fa il balletto della felicità*
Ero un po' preoccupata che traducendola avrebbe perso un po', ma sembra che piaccia lo stesso *fa spallucce*
Icone? Vuoi anche quelle? Tra disegni, icone e fic tra un po' mi toccherà aprire una community a parte... Time2meow? Butitsbetterifyoumeow? Wearesopurring? Pasdechat? *ride come una deficiente*
Comunque... vedi un po' se queste vanno bene ;)


Io brindo solo perchè si sa che l'alcohol aiuta aiuta a dimenticare. Magari mi dice bene e dimentico il fatto che non so scrivere e viene fuori un capolavoro di catfic...... AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH 'MAZA!

Effettivamente mi ero dimenticata di quella lista... fammela bookmarcare, va!

Corro a postare :D (ma anche su patdslash su dw?)

[sowrongitsbec.livejournal.com]

I really enjoyed the drabble and the little bit ... The conversation? I think it was. I was grinning and trying not to aww out loud because my aunty is like right next to me lol anywya

The picture is absolutely adorable! More soon y/y?

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

Thank you :D

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

\o/ Yay! Thank you :D

[luckylaw.livejournal.com]

KITTIES!
idk what it is about them, they just make the world seem better.
Have you ever read minimcr?
It would be awesome if there was a kitty cartoon version of panic.

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

idk what it is about them, they just make the world seem better.
This is very very true!

I've never minimcr! What is it?

A kitty cartoon version of panic would be adorable, but I'm not sure I could pull it off :)

[wethepainted.livejournal.com]

I love everything about this post and feel the need to comment in a form of a numbered list.
1. \o/
2. :D That is the greatest thing I have seen today.
3. Greta is totally the coolest cat owner ever. Also, BRB, getting my pompoms. *\o/* (I even have rl experience~ in cheerleading! Never mind the fact that I was possibly the failiest cheerleader ever.) Though my internet cheerleading abilities are currently limited to flailing, cooing and heart-eyes, I'm afraid. As a non-native English speaker my grammar and writing skills are dubious.

That is a beautiful picture! Greta playing the piano! And the sofa that actually looks soft! ♥

(Because I've been horribly lazy in commenting I forgot to mention before that I took some of the former Cats!panic icons and plan on using them & crediting! Also, I've had the last Cats!Panic picture as my laptop wallpaper since you posted it and it still makes me smile every time I see it :))

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

Lemur!Panic would be hilarious!

Woo-hoo! Popmpoms!!! And omg you're a cheerleader! Nevermind the faily part, what matters is the will :D Flailing, cooing and heart-eyes are more than ok! You're hired!
As a non-native English speaker my grammar and writing skills are dubious. What? o__O? I thought you were British...? Why did I think you were British?

Thank you sweetie :D (I feel like the sofa is stealing the scene from the kitties... I can't look at anything past the sofa! And Greta! Greta is the coolest cat owner so she had to play the piano :DDD

(I'm glad you like them :D And I have the same wallpaper ;) the panic kitten are eating my brain!)

[pixiebullets.livejournal.com]

OMG SO FUCKING CUTE! MORE MORE MORE!! :D

<33333333333

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

Hee, thank you :D
I'm already working on it ;)

[scoradh.livejournal.com]

OH GOD.

when Brendon falls asleep with his face tucked against Spencer's throat and starts purring as he dreams, Spencer can't stop himself from twining his tail with Brendon's."

Forget cooing, how about screaming?!

And I love the sofa too! Is that Greta sewing in the background? :DDDD

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

Cooing, screaming... It's all ok, as long as it makes you feel good :D

The sofa is stealing the scene from the kittens :D And Greta was supposed to be playing the piano, but I can see how it could come off as a sewing machine, too ;)

Thank you <3

[toodelicious.livejournal.com]

kitties♥
they make me squee ;P

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

That makes two of us :D

[sundaydriver.livejournal.com]

*yah* Another adorable kitty picture! And icons too!

I'm probably going to snag a couple of those icons, if that's okay, and will give credit, of course.

And I definitely encourage you to continue that PATD Cat!AU. It sounds adorable so far. :)

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

Thank you :D
Of course it's ok! I'm just happy to share the adorableness :)

[joncerinasack.livejournal.com]
