Matt's gone.

I don't get to see him for two weeks.

I've broken out my PPC fic again, as I write to ignore the fact that I'm depressed.

What kind of penname is "The_Eavenstar", anyway? Is the author a mini-Balrog? I don't think so; minis are supposed to EAT Suvians, not BE them!

In PPC fic, Claudia and Ella begin to fight about love. I think Ella and Claudia get along to well, generally; however, Ella believes in Twu Wuv and I just believe in wuv, so we can squabble about it endlessly. Stick D and Delyrian in the same department, and voila--instant response-center-partner strife! And repetitive confusion worthy of the Department of Redundancy Department--D and Delyrian in the DRD. And should check the Sparticus and Sparticus idea with Ben 'cos I don't think I talked to him about it. Or maybe I'm just forgetful.

Random excerpt of PPC fic (takes place in HQ after killing Sue):

Ella shuddered as she flopped down on the couch. “Oh, Goddess.”

“You were going to bitch about something,” Claudia reminded her, settling in front of Morgoth.

“Ah, yes, I was.”

“Commence.”

Ella took a deep breath. “At some point right before we killed her, she mentions that she’s never been kissed; she’s only sixteen. Then she mentions that she has a boyfriend. That makes no sense whatsoever—first of all, almost everyone’s been kissed by the time they’re sixteen these days. That whole ‘sweet sixteen and never been kissed’ thing is rare enough that it shouldn’t be paraded as the norm. And, if you’re sixteen and you have a boyfriend, but he’s never kissed you, than it’s not much of a relationship, is it?” she ranted.

Claudia looked thoughtfully at the arm of the chair for a moment, then responded: “That’s not necessarily true.”

Ella raised an eyebrow. “How?”

“I will grant you that people today are usually way too obsessed with sex and romance.” She continued looking thoughtful. “But,”—Ella could hear the space left for a tagline—“the main problem with that point in the story is that she hadn’t mentioned him before.” She looked up from the arm of the chair at her partner. “People aren’t logical about love these days at all. They chop it up into many different types and hold them way too far apart. Despite the fact that the media portrays falling in love with your best friend as a recipe for disaster, in my humble opinion, being friends with your significant other person is imperative for the relationship to work and not just… fizzle out once your hormone level stabilizes. So the fact that she doesn’t care enough about her boyfriend to miss him at all makes it obvious to me, much more so than the fact that he’s never kissed her, that you’re right—it isn’t much of a relationship. Whether or not he’s kissed her is nobody else’s business and shouldn’t be what the relationship’s built on anyway.”

Ella looked thoughtfully at her for a moment. “You do realize you’re analyzing a Sue’s romantic situation in terms of logic?”

Claudia gave an embarrassed grin. “Well, yeah. Emotions are one of the few things I think about practically. Which gets confusing. It explains why I hate the concept of ‘Twu Wuv’ so much, though.”

Ella sighed. “You’re impossible.”

“Earth of water, if I’m not mistaken, and a cynic,” Claudia corrected.

Ella opened her mouth to respond—

[BEEP BEEP BEEP?]

“I’ll leave refuting your argument for another time, then. What’s the beeping for?” she sighed.

There was something on the PPC board with what the "elmblem" for the DAC should be. The typo was Ella's; Nathonea started bugging her about it. Ella said she'd ask me, and my response was the following:

Claudia Beth King
Claudia found that funny too and says
Fri Jul 18 2003 9:02:44 pm
67.80.50.0

that it should be an elm tree so it can still be an elmblem. She also says, Try to actually *pronounce* that! It's quite amusing. Elmblem... elmblem elmblem elmblem... *GIGGLE*

*is feeling deppy. Unfortunately has nothing to do with Johnny Depp, who is uberspiffy beyond belief, but instead refers to being depressed and happy at the same time, resulting in wierd behavior like this.*

*bounces out* Elmblem, deppy, elmblem, deppy... deppy deppy deppy, ELM-BLEM...

-Claudia, spastic

PS Speaking of Johnny Depp, who is uberspiffy beyond belief, and looks really hot in thick black eyeliner, I had his voice stuck in my head all day today... the line "If you were waitin' for the opportune moment, mate, that was it" was going around and around in my head... I could hear it... I could also hear Ella teasing me over AIM... I could HEAR her TEXTing me, I could even hear/see the FONT she uses on AIM! It was WIERD! And then "If you were waitin' for the opportune moment..." >.< GAH.

*actually leaves this time*


Forgot to give credit for "deppy" to Chris. Stupid me.

And am now talking with Ella online and bit of conversation has gone the following way:

elftrekkie42: *sighs and goes back to her little happy bubble of fluffiness(tm)*
AkashaReincarnat: *wanders through cloud of depression in search of little bubble of fluffiness(tm) of her own* Dang, where'd it go?
elftrekkie42: it's right here! *points to little bubble of fluffiness (tm) nearby*
AkashaReincarnat: *peers at little bubble of fluffiness(tm)* Why, so 'tis! *jumps inside*
elftrekkie42: yay!
AkashaReincarnat: *carefully floats little bubble of fluffiness(tm) over to Ella's little happy bubble of fluffiness(tm)*
AkashaReincarnat: *waves*
elftrekkie42: *bounces in LHBoF(tm)*
AkashaReincarnat: *curls up and watches, amused*
elftrekkie42: see, aren't LHBoF(tm) fun?
AkashaReincarnat: Well, you have an LHBoF(tm). I just have an LBoF(tm).
AkashaReincarnat: But 'tis quite fun. *feels all warm and fuzzy inside*

Eh, but now we've gone off-topic. I'm sort of wavering in and out of my little bubble of fluffiness(tm)... 'cos today was just uber nice, but I'm really quite depressed that he's gone. And then I'm mad at myself because I _really_ don't want to be the stereotypical teenage girl who's all depressed and mopey and feeling sorry for herlsef because she misses her boyfriend. I mean, you can't get any more annoyingly conventional than that. You just can't.

AkashaReincarnat: *attempts to go back into LBoF(tm) but ends up melodramatically standing up and leaning her head against it like it's a doorpost*

Melodrama is what gets me through this. It sort of makes me more depressed, because I'm acting all melodramatically depressed, but it makes me feel better in a way that I don't feel guilty about.

Did that make any sense?

Whatever, I'm going to stop constantly posting and keep on PPCing... if I can...

-Claudia
