August is nearing. IT’S VERY NEAR, DAMMIT. And of course, another plethora of Touhou madness in every bite is coming your way with Another Dream’s fourth issue!
Yours truly is up and ready for a literary release (now the doujin-comic format is broken and replaced with a magazine format, with novels, short stories, and artist-writer interviews, possibly, rolled into one whole issue) which you all know already if you’ve backtracked long enough. 東方姫: Phantasmal Fox Under The Lavender Luna is currently being updated as we speak to meet some additional requirements (which I may not be able to do, hee hee), but the whole gamut is done at a full 100%.
Here’s a sample page (it’s not final though, and this was shown inside the circle 5-6 eons ago, so it’s probably changed):
Wong said additional illustrations, but I may half-ass that instead. But anyways, aside from that, I’m planning to throw in the 4koma I’ve told you guys about, with Momoko as Nage and Iku as Uke. It may just be a few pages considering the time, but hey, I ought to use some things I’ve learned as well. This might come out great!
So basically, I’m back on track, so let the battle begin!
LULZ FOR NEKO ARC CAMEO!
Kara no Kyokai never failed to disappoint me with the second movie, in a psychological sense. But then again, the way Nasu explains these things through the characters tend to bend the normal sense of one’s own thinking. I dunno, it just couldn’t connect yet the entire message is there for you to read. That being said, it’s like a double-edged sword that can either entice or confuse the audience.

Seriously, I need this dose of Easy Mode.
Basically, what I meant is that I’ll try to do things in a very easy way, be it anime episodes, manga chapters, eroge entries, or reviews. In short, it’s all going to be MY WAY this time around. Screw formats, screw semantics, screw everything I tried to follow, for damn sakes. It’s taking too much of my time now, considering I have responsibilities to the outside world at the moment (no, I won’t tell, you probably know anyway). I mean, dig this: you screw your nocturnal way of life by having some affairs starting from 6:00 AM in the morning, which ends at 2:00 PM in the afternoon for some melanin cooking sessions. Then you arrive at 4:00 PM in the near-evening, take a nap, end up waking 5-8 hours later with only a few hours or minutes to spare in making an entry for the day before clock strikes 12:00 MN. All this, on an empty brain and stomach too.
Now, I’m not saying I prioritize this blog oh so much over something else in real life that I would gladly sacrifice every event that comes by in reality just to check on it for a few minutes. But hey, I love my net life, more than my real life, and that’s one bittersweet fact I have to swallow every single day. Real life has no reconnects, no restarts, no games, no freedom from money, it’s all just bullshit. Now, everybody knows Net >>>>> Real Life, but we look like helpless little shits trying to grab hold of a dream like a little kid while everybody else starts bitching out their way of life. We usually don’t tend to care, but there’ll be times that it gets really annoying that it pisses people off. This blog’s the only haven I’ve got on the vast Interwebs for a while, and I intend to stay at it till I drop dead 2 to 3 days later (but that depends too). Don’t worry, I don’t intend to drop the quality of my posts to a retarded level like Author-tan does. I really just have to cruise steady while dodging easy mode danmaku.
So, basically, do you happen to have a preferred set of words, or a word you like to use all the time? How about idioms, phrases, and all that playful array of blablabla that you always use to denote or point out some things in a certain post or topic? Well, we all do that, but sometimes it shows up way too much in the posts that the people who read notice them too well. That’s the start of BLOGOMANNERISMS: words we always use like a habit.
Of course, I’m no exception to this rule. Like, you’ll hear me saying “shit”, “fuck”, “crap”, “ass” 85% of the time! Of course it’s bad, everybody knows it’s bad, your parents might think it’s bad, etc. But like I said, it’s a habit that’s hard to break. Try to withstand not doing it and you’ll suffer into writing blocks or mental withdrawals on words you want to use in substitute of the word/s or phrase/s in question, though in my case, the substitutes wouldn’t even change how you pertained the word. “Shit” is equivalent to “crap”, so is “fuck” equivalent to “sex”. See any subtleness? No.
This gives people the idea of vocabularianism, where a good range of understanding and knowledge on words would generally make a move of its own when situation permits. You can call it “play of words” or something like that. This garners things easy to subdue when sometimes, people would usually use “strong” words to denote these. An example is to use “harass” instead of “fuck”. With this, people can also have a wide variety of words to choose from when they write stuff, which is a good way to erase mannerisms and habits they use to do when they write.

Basically what I looked like after ultra-cold weather, raging storms, and hibernation. And no, SUPERARMOR didn’t apply, you SWR freaks.
So, basically, what the hell happened? First things first, some kind of superstorm hit the vicinity. Now that’s a lame excuse, really, but the two-day blackout was there to testify enough for me. And the air’s so cold, it forced me into hibernation. Okay, screw that, just waiting for electricity to be turned back on (yeah, they turn it off if they know the storm’s really severe) was so bad, the boredom, RAGE, and patience forced me into hibernation. Okay, screw that again, it’s true enough for me to elaborate. The only thing that forced me out of it was the blinding lights of my fluorescent ceiling lamp, and the sudden blare of my radio (imagine a boom box at maximum volume right at your eardrums).
Okay, screw this, this has got nothing to do with the delays I got from this shitty drawback, so I’ll just try to get back on track with everything I planned to do on an extended timeframe. I do hope I didn’t let that much people down (though I think almost nobody checks this place if there’s nothing new save a few, but fuck, does that matter…). Yeah.
