1. What did you do in 2019 that you’d never done before?

Got a proper full-time job and got a raise and stuff which was awesome.

I ran social media for a livestream event in December for Rusty Quill.

Went to Ireland and visited the Giant's Causeway.

Submitted a short story for publication! I need to actually get that sent out again.

Made 3 escape games :D Mini escape games in bags.


2. Did you keep your new year’s resolutions, and will you make more for next year?

I did actually send a story out for publication. This next year I want to get more massages because my shoulders are *wrecked*, and just read more. And finish rewrites on the novel.

Sabrina from work!

4. Did anyone close to you die?

Nope.

5. What countries did you visit?

Ireland and Northern Ireland!

A goddam ADHD diagnosis! I am on the waiting list, and have been for about 18 months now :| Probably more goddam therapy.

7. What dates from 2019 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?

December 7th! The Rusty Quill charity livestream. Awesome event and I had so much fun.

8. What was your biggest achievement of the year?

Submitting a story. It was a big step. Need to do more of it but I went through a bad patch in summer so didn't send it out again and need to do that. Also my annual review at work was great!

Completed NaNoWriMo in 17 days. Also the escape games were fun!

9. What was your biggest failure?

Didn't do as much writing as I should. Didn't get anything published.

10. Did you suffer illness or injury?

I have had a bitch of a cold yet again this year over Christmas and New Year.

Worldcon tickets and travel. Train tickets to London for the first Rusty Quill meetup in May. Just generally travelling to hangouts has been great. 

Also the Good Cows.

12. Whose behaviour merited celebration?

Friends! My friends are so fucking awesome!

All the creators working hard to make good things in dark times.

I have a lot of respect for Greta Thunberg too.
 I hate that she has to do it, but I applaud her conviction.

Student loan. And travel.

Sky Full Of Song - Florence+The Machine

17. Compared to this time last year, are you: (a) happier or sadder? (b) thinner or fatter? c) richer or poorer?

18. What do you wish you’d done more of?

Writing. 

19. What do you wish you’d done less of?

Procrastinating

20. How did you spend Christmas?

With my parents and sister and brother in law, as last year. Very lazy and quite but it was nice.

I got into a new fandom? Does that count?

22. What was your favourite TV program?

Gen:Lock was pretty damn enjoyable!

23. Do you hate anyone now that you didn’t hate this time last year?

I am just repeating what I said last year. My list of hated political figures grows ever longer. They just can't stop being absolute spunktrumpets.

24. What was the best book you read?

I read half of This is How You Lose the Time War. I am so fucking bad at reading these days and I hate it.

25. What was your greatest musical discovery?

The Mechanisms. I have been listening to The Bifrost Incident on repeat for the last 2 weeks.

26. What did you want and get?

A Nintendo Switch! A trip to Worldcon. A bunch of fandom goodness.

27. What did you want and not get?

An end to the political fuckery that has prevailed since 2016. The utter destruction of the concept of Brexit. *sigh*

28. What was your favourite film of this year?

Oh christ... Captain Marvel? Was that this year? The year has been so long.

29. What one thing made your year immeasurably more satisfying?

Fandom.

30. How would you describe your personal fashion concept in 2018?

I discovered glittery lipstick recently and I look great in it.

31. What kept you sane?

Good friends. Avoiding the news as much as possible. Discord

32. Which celebrity/public figure did you fancy the most?

I don't.

33. What political issue stirred you the most?

*laughs brokenly*

34. Who did you miss?

Friends mainly! The Livestream crew!

35. Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2019.

Oh my god, people might actually want to be friends with me?

36. Quote a song lyric that sums up your year.
How deeply are you sleeping
Or are you still awake?
A good friend told me
You've been staying out so late
Be careful my darling
Be careful of what it takes
What I've seen so far
The good ones always seems to break

Had my annual review at work last week, and I was worried about it (I always feel like I'm not doing enough, like I'm lazy, because I get distracted a lot, and working from home doesn't help sometimes), but it went really well!

I'm getting a pretty hefty raise, especially now I'm working full time. Holy shit this is just... gonna make some stuff a lot easier, y'know? Especially since I only have 1 more year of payments left on my graduate loan.

I don't want to go crazy but there's some small things it'll be nice to have the money for, like booking an actual hotel room for myself when I go somewhere instead of staying in youth hostel dorm rooms where I inevitably end up on the top bunk of a bunkbed (which I hate) and have a shitty night sleep. Not gonna be booking a penthouse suite or anything, but just being able to get a decent night's sleep when I go to events is going to be *lovely*.

Also, quite probably gonna try to go private to get an ADHD diagnosis because it has been a *year* and i have heard nothing from the NHS.

Also got reminded by my boss that each year we get £250 to spend on something related to work. Since I work for a game company... I am *totally* planning to wait until black friday and get a Switch XD

It's just so weird. I never thought I'd be in this position of having a job that I don't hate, where I feel appreciated and relatively secure and have adult things like a pension.

zaliachimera: (Default)
Yeah so I kind of swan dived into The Magnus Archives fandom and that's been my live for the past month and a half. In that time, I have written 20k of Magnus Archives fanfiction, made a couple of clay figures and given one of those to the writer, spent way too much money on train tickets down to London for a meetup and generally been consumed.

I wish I could be this productive with original stuff but... brains are dumb.

How's your day going?

In other news, attended my first game dev conference as an actual professional! Work paid for my accommodation and I need to send them info to get reimbursed for the ticket and travel. It's so weird. I'm not used to being appreciated like that. I mean, I worked retail for over a decade where they treat you like crap and still expect you to be utterly dedicated to their every whim. And now I have actual holiday days and they paid for me to go to a conference, and keep being reminded to log the fuck off at the end of the day.

You can also see all my notes from the conference, and my photos (including the Zine I made!) here:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1_obOsWkEIju-PHp9E_e_xwOq9GsRNBWL
zaliachimera: (Default)
I have listened to nearly 50 episodes of The Magnus Archives in a week and am having to restrain myself from diving into fanfiction because I also don't want to be spoiled XD

It's tough guys.
zaliachimera: (Winsome Yohji)
I both love and dread getting into a new fandom. It's a complicated thing for me, and as I've got older I've got more aware of my feelings around things which is great! But also horrible because I start anticipating things more.

I can't promise this is going to be totally coherent but I've been considering it a bunch recently and wanted to get my thoughts down.

I guess in a lot of ways, a new fandom is like having a crush. It's exciting, thrilling even. It makes my heart and my stomach lurch to think about the New Thing. There is so much possibility! So many new things to create! New characters to love and stories to discover! So many new things to learn! There has never been a fandom yet where I haven't come out the other side a better writer.

I really hate having crushes. They are distressing and distracting and play with my emotions which is why I'm sitting here nearly in tears, being very worried about the end of the New Thing even though that's most likely a couple of years away. It eats my thoughts and makes it difficult to focus and I don't really like having feelings a lot of the time.

It's taking up 95% of my creative brainspace and while I can feel all these lovely ideas at the edges of my mind, I kind of need that brainspace for original stuff.

I wonder what it would be like to get into something a normal amount. Like 'hey I like this thing and may indulge in some fanfic' amount, rather than 'I just binged 135 episodes in under a month I guess this thing is my life for the next 3-4 years'.

And there's a kind of grief that comes with it too. It feels like losing part of myself and losing something I love. Because I can still like a thing, and rewatch it, but there's a spark that's gone. It's never going to be that intense again. And I mourn that. I guess it's mourning the person I'm not anymore, the person who latched so strongly onto this thing that isn't My Thing anymore.

And the more conscious I've become of my feelings around fandom, the weirder it's become. I can anticipate when a new fandom is around the corner now. Like... I know I'm hungry for something, but at the same time, lamenting that I'll be moving on even before it's happened. It's weird.

I've been kind of thinking that a fandom comes along when I need it. Or more like... my brain latches onto the creative Thing that it needs at the moment, the thing that's going to fill some hole in me, something I need to learn from it creatively. I don't know if it's true but I like the idea. It makes it feel a little less like abandoning something, and more like achieving something. I learned a thing, and now I can move on to the next thing! I know fandom isn't a thing you can win at but my brain still feels like it should try.

And then there's the real life stuff.

Especially in the first flush of fandom, I get really enthusiastic. And then spend my time around people, all people, even friends, super paranoid that they dislike me for liking the New Thing. I talk too much about it, I love it too fiercely and it's weird.

I cannot count the number of times as a kid when I loved something that I was told I was too into it, and needed to stop and do other things and not be so influenced by it. I've got better at hiding it I think, but it's still hard, and painful to know people's eyes are glazing over when I mention it.

But I've done this before. A lot. Even before I knew what fandom was. Even before I had the internet. And I always get to keep some things. Some knowledge, some ideas, some friends I collected along the way. It's never dying, it's just rearranging myself to fit this New Thing in.

Title: Echo Chamber
Fandom: The Magnus Archives
Characters: Martin Blackwood, Jonathan Sims
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: No explicit spoilers but you should probably have listened to the end of Season 2. General canon-usual creepiness

Notes: So I finished Season 2 the other day (after binging 80 episodes in a week), and this came to mind and I needed to write it down before moving on to Season 3!

Fic on AO3

Summary: Statement of Martin Blackwood regarding the changes in Jonathan Sims. Regarding fears. Regarding change.

They aren't Ghostbusters, and none of them arrived expecting to save the world. But they didn't sign up for the slow chains of purpose either.


Statement of Martin Blackwood regarding… regarding… regarding Jonathan Sims. )

So that... sure was a thing...

Massive spoilers below!

Thinky Thoughts )
zaliachimera: (Kenren)
Title: A Little Piece of Bliss
Character: Agent Washington, Locus
Pairing: A bit of Locus/Wash
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: All of them. Brainwashing/Mind control, manipulation. There’s no actual sex in this but it definitely has non-con elements. Gun kink. Really dark and messed up in general.

Summary: Wash is trapped in the darkness, losing himself as it tries to drown him. Locus has the solution, and a mission. And a high cost.

PLEASE MAKE SURE TO READ THE WARNINGS!!!



Wash sits down on the bunk he’s been assigned and finally, reluctantly, pulls off his helmet. He holds it in his hands, clutching it like a protective talisman. )
zaliachimera: (Winsome Yohji)
Rules: Go to your AO3 works page, expand all the filters, and answer the following questions!

TOTAL WORKS: 180


What’re your first and second most common work ratings?

Teen And Up Audiences (92)
Mature Audience (36)
Explicit (36)


What’s your most common archive warning?

No Archive Warnings Apply (164)

Do you consider yourself an adventurous writer?

Sometimes? I have experimented with stuff, but generally I know what I like and stick to that. It's very hard to make me write something I'm not interested in which is part of why I rarely take prompts or join exchanges.


How many fics have you written or podficced in each pairing category?

M/M (82)
Gen (59)
F/M (46)
Multi (9)
F/F (5)
Other (3)


Is this more accidental, or do you have preferences?

My preference for the F/M stuff is apparently 'Janine de Luca tops everyone' which y'know, I'm not gonna apologise for. Janine is amazing.

I tend to latch onto one character and ship them with a bunch of people rather than OTP. So for example, with RvB, I will ship Wash with a lot of people. Most of my faves for series I am super fannish about enough to write fic have been male characters.

What are your top 4 fandoms by numbers?

Zombies Run! (61)
Hetalia: Axis Powers (47)
Red vs. Blue (37)
Marvel Cinematic Universe (6)

This is a little skewed by the fact that there are a bunch of fics I never transferred over from Livejournal or ff.net. If I had, Fullmetal Alchemist would have knocked Marvel out of the room (and possible RvB!)


What are your top 4 relationship tags?

Janine De Luca/Simon Lauchlan (21)
England/France (Hetalia) (16)
Jack Holden/Eugene Woods (13)
No Romantic Relationship(s) (5)
Paula Cohen/Maxine Myers (5)


Does this match how you feel about the characters, or are you puzzled?

Seems pretty solid! I'm a little surprised there's no RvBs in there but I have jumped around with the pairings a lot more in this fandom.


What are your top 2 most used additional tags, and your bottom 2?

Most used:
Angst (36)
Fluff (30)

Bottom 2:
Bondage (11)
Dark (11)


What would happen if you combined all 4 of these into a fic?

Really messed up kink with aftercare?


How many WIPs do you have currently running on AO3? Any you don’t plan on finishing?

Technically 5, but 2 of those were more... collections of vaguely connected fics featuring the same characters not actual WIPs so... 3.

What You Leave To Chance - Zombies, Run! vaguely supernatural fic where what saves Jack and Eugene is a little more than random luck.
A Night Like This - Hetalia fic where Germany and England meet for the first time in WW1 after centuries thinking they were alone, and proceed to road trip around the world to find others like them.
Pretty Little Chips and Wires - Red vs Blue fic where Wash is an AI and didn't know it. It's Hargrove's fault.

What You Leave To Chance is probably never going to be finished but there is a non zero chance I'll repurpose it for an original thing.

A Night Like This is not going to be finished because 1. it's huge and not even half way, 2. I'm not into Hetalia anymore, and 3. Fuck you I got people legit threatening me over this fic so no fucking way am I completing it now. it's not worth it.

Pretty Little Chips and Wires - I would like to finish it, but I think I would probably need to sit down and rewrite the whole thing. It was only intended to be a one-shot so there's some stuff that could have been thought through better.
zaliachimera: (Happy Aqua)
This has taken me longer than I would have liked. I've finally decided to post in 2 parts. This one will cover my criticisms of the game. I go into some depth in it and it's quite long.

Don't get me wrong, I really loved KH3 and had a great time playing it, but my criticisms tend to spark more discussion and thinky thoughts, while the good things tend to involve more pure 'SQUEE THIS IS AWESOME' which makes for shorter posts.

Also I know sometimes if you're really loving something, you're not in the mood to read criticism at that time, even if you might agree with it. Hence... 2 parts.

Needless to say, there are a lot of spoilers below for Kingdom Hearts 3!


Kingdom Hearts 3 - Criticisms  )
zaliachimera: (Winsome Yohji)
The year is 2030. The Critical Role animation has finished its 10th season. The Vox Machina live action movie is receiving rave reviews. Matthew Mercer has just been elected World President. There is peace.
zaliachimera: (Happy Aqua)
Today has been a very fandom day because two things happened!

1. My article about Zombies, Run! fandom got posted on the official blog and you can read that here!!!

Worked on it for a few days and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Got a couple more things coming up there over the next few weeks.


2. I was on the Syfy Channel Fandom Files podcast reading my gen:LOCK fanfic! They were actually talking to one of the actors from the show so it was a nice bit of serendipity to get to do it. You can listen to that here!!!
zaliachimera: (Happy Aqua)
Title: Pompeii
Fandom: gen:LOCK
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: Gen
Warnings: Spoilers for Season 1 Episode 6, angst
Notes: I needed to get this written and out there before I potentially get jossed on Saturday

Summary: Kazu may not be the greatest at following the official military rules, the ones imposed from on-high. But the other rules? The ones you learn from your squad mates and pass on when it's your turn? He knows those.

But after two weeks on the run, it's hard not to break them.

Never ever look under the helmet of a Union soldier.

I have finished KH3. There was a lot of gross sobbing because fuck it was an ending 15 years in the making and it felt satisfying.

No. I still have no clue what is going on.

I am gonna try to put together a big post of thinky thoughts tomorrow.
zaliachimera: (Default)
Kingdom Hearts 3 came out today. I played for about 6 and a half hours and damn, I needed that. This is gonna be my non spoilery post!

First? It looks gorgeous. They have stepped up their game. I mean, I always thought they did a really smart thing with the look of KH. They didn't go for photorealism, they went for the slightly cartoonish style and it has served them well. The original games have aged *way* better than other games from the PS2 era which went for a more realistic style.

But Kingdom Hearts 3 has made the most of being on PS4 (and XBox One). For example, the stained glass section near the start looked stunning. They've added so much depth to the level design too. One thing with previous games is the levels always felt a bit hollow, a bit like Sora was on a set, rather than in a real lived in place. I mean, KH1 every section of a world felt like it was in a box. And now? Everywhere feels a lot more like a place where other things could happen.

I'm also really getting a sense of how much crossover there was from FFXV. FFXV was obviously a trial run for a lot of the features in the game. You can take photographs! You can warp to distant points and switch between keyblades! Even small things, like in one section you can see the rooftops of buildings, is very reminiscent of FFXV. They've done a great job at learning lessons and implementing them, while still keeping it feeling like Kingdom Hearts.

And finally, I love how earnest these games are. It would have been so easy to have sly winks and nods, snide looks of 'we know this is ridiculous' and 'wow, pretty dumb and naive right, adults?'. But they don't. They play it totally straight. These are games that are unabashedly, unashamedly, about hope, and love and the power of friendship. And sometimes we need that.
zaliachimera: (Default)
1. What did you do in 2018 that you’d never done before?

Went to a professional writing retreat. I attended Viable Paradise writing workshop on Martha's Vineyard and it was amazing! It's one of the most prestigious SFF workshops, alongside Clarion. We were taught by amazing people like Max Gladstone and Scott Lynch and Amal El-Mohtar, and had workshops and hung out with amazing people like editors from Tor and Elizabeth Bear and it was just... incredible. I fell madly in love with all of my classmates in the way you do when you're trapped on an island with people for a week and doing intense work.

I also got an actual job with a salary and holiday pay and stuff! It's quite an adjustment when I've mainly worked retail and done freelance work.

I also got to meet a couple of internet friends who I'd never been able to meet in person, including my friend Sue who I've known for about a decade and we got to hang out!

2. Did you keep your new year’s resolutions, and will you make more for next year?

I don't even remember what resolutions I made last year. I tend not to make them. I want to write more and I want to submit at least 1 piece of work for publication in 2019.

3. Did anyone close to you give birth?

Nope

4. Did anyone close to you die?

Thankfully not!

5. What countries did you visit?

I visited the US! And Dublin airport but airports don't count.

6. What would you like to have in 2019 that you lacked in 2018?

Better mental health. An ADHD diagnosis or at least more therapy. The ability to focus on writing.

7. What dates from 2018 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?

July 1st. I got my acceptance to VP and couldn't even understand the email at first because I just couldn't believe I'd actually got accepted. I had to copy and paste the email and ask someone in a chat to tell me what it said because I couldn't believe it.

8. What was your biggest achievement of the year?

Viable Paradise acceptance! I don't think anything could top that. It was my first time applying and I know they get a load of applications and I'm so honoured that I'm a VP alumnus now!

9. What was your biggest failure?

Didn't do as much writing as I should have. I worry I've thrown a way a bunch of opportunities and let people down by not getting things done. I always intend to do them, and they just slip away.

10. Did you suffer illness or injury?

As I write this, on New Year's Eve 2018, I am at home instead of with friends because I've got a stinking cold. Mental health has also not been great.

11. What was the best thing you bought?

Flights and tuition for Viable Paradise. Also I pre-ordered Kingdom Hearts 3 which I am looking forward to immensely.

12. Whose behaviour merited celebration?

My friends who are always amazing and supportive. Everyone out there working against injustice, fighting for a better world.

13. Whose behaviour made you appalled?

Fuck you Theresa May. Die in a fire Jacob Rees-Mogg. Fuck everyone who voted Tory and voted for Brexit. Fuck Donald Trump too and his cronies. I hope you rot.

14. Where did most of your money go?

Paying for Viable Paradise tuition and everything that came along with that. Worth it though!

15. What did you get really, really, really excited about?

Viable Paradise. I'm a bit of a broken record! And also my friend winning the Kitschie Award for best debut!!!!

16. What song will always remind you of 2018?

Warmth by Bastille

17. Compared to this time last year, are you: (a) happier or sadder? (b) thinner or fatter? c) richer or poorer?

a) Happier, i think! I'm in a bit more of a stable position than I was last year and that helps a lot.

b) Fatter probably? I haven't done much exercise and I feel bad about that

c) Richer! Weirdly. I have an actual guaranteed income every month! It's so weird.

18. What do you wish you’d done more of?

Writing. Always writing.

19. What do you wish you’d done less of?

Having small breakdowns and depressive funks.

20. How did you spend Christmas?

With my parents and sister and brother in law! It was pretty lazy but nice. Felt pretty nice and Christmassy for once!

21. Did you fall in love in 2018?

In deep platonic love with my VP class. And with Martha's Vineyard. In love with a very specific place at a very specific time I guess?

22. What was your favourite TV program?

I got into Critical Role which has been really enjoyable. Also watched all of Aggretsuko which is an absolute delight! Also the new Doctor Who is brilliant!

23. Do you hate anyone now that you didn’t hate this time last year?

My list of hated political figures grows ever longer. They just can't stop being absolute spunktrumpets.

24. What was the best book you read?

Look... I have fucking *sucked* at reading things this year. I don't know if I've even managed to read a whole book in 2018 and it is driving me nuts.

25. What was your greatest musical discovery?

I didn't make a discovery but did get to see Fall Out Boy in concert which was awesome!

26. What did you want and get?

Accepted to VP! An actual salaried stable job!

27. What did you want and not get?

An end to the political fuckery that has prevailed since 2016. The utter destruction of the concept of Brexit.

28. What was your favourite film of this year?

I really enjoyed Black Panther! Getting to the local cinema is kind of an ordeal so I don't get to see as many new films as I'd like.

29. What one thing made your year immeasurably more satisfying?

Schadenfreude

30. How would you describe your personal fashion concept in 2018?

I got some cute tops but I'm mainly doing the jeans and hoodies thing. Also pyjamas. Pyjamas are great

31. What kept you sane?

Good friends. Avoiding the news as much as possible.

32. Which celebrity/public figure did you fancy the most?

None of them.

33. What political issue stirred you the most?

*laughs brokenly*

34. Who did you miss?

There are some people who are no longer with us who I deeply miss and wish I could tell them stuff that's happened. I miss my friends when they're not around, and my VP family.

35. Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2018.

Fuck it, I'm good at stuff!

36. Quote a song lyric that sums up your year.

Never good just the bad and the ugly
Laid infront of you
Nothing quite like seeing the world through the TV's we know
Feeling helpless I look for distraction
I go searching for you, wandering through our city to find some solace at your door

I met a traveller from a fandom land,

Who said—“Vast and vehement blogs,

Stand in the Tumblr… . Near them, on the blue field,

Half deleted, a call out post lies, whose misogyny

And false concern, and sneer of ‘problematic’ and 'fetishising’,

Tell that its writer well those passions felt

Which yet survive, stamped on these hollow reblogs,

The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;

And on the profile, these words appear:

My name is Most Unproblematic, Purest of the pure;

Look on my Callouts, ye fans, and repent!

Nothing beside remains. Round the posts

Of that colossal blog, boundless and bare

The lone and level fandoms stretch far away.”
