Reserved South ([livejournal.com profile] stackingthedeck) at Paradisa and had more Dear_Mun shenanigans with her earlier. Hopefully the former will go well, should be something fun to do, in any case. It's been a while since I've been a part of a multifandom game, but it shouldn't be hard to get back in the groove of one.


I think deep down, she actually regretted some of what she did. She was able to stand, had a gun in hand, yet she made no attempt to at least point it at Wash. Yeah, she probably thought based on his profile he might not actually shoot her, but she taunted him and definitely increased the odds of it happening and her dying as a result. At the very least, if she didn’t feel bad for what she did to Wash, she may have felt some remorse for having played a big hand in her brother’s death. Survival always seemed to be her number one priority, but I guess if she had to go out, she felt by Wash’s hand was better than being dragged injured and bleeding into custody.

Of course, pride probably played a big factor in all of that, too. Taunt instead of plead to be spared, to at least save some face and keep her dignity somewhat intact.

…The more I think about it, the more she seems like such a weird character. I’m probably overanalyzing this anyway.




More RvB tonight, woot woot.

EDIT: Oh my god, I found the best Wash wallpaper ever.

I really like her hair in it, ffff. His designs work for me, mostly because the ones I've seen I haven't had an established mental image for the character in my head yet.

I don't think I'd ever really thought about what they might have looked like before I saw his fanart page on bungie, but some of it just didn't work for me anyway. Part of it's his style, though, which took a while to grow on me and still looks awkward sometimes.

[identity profile] shinyget.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 12:21 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I can see how it'd bother you. Characters look a little... weird in it sometimes, haha.

[identity profile] shichahn.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
He's gotten better with time. A lot of his early character designs are kind of hideous. XD;

[identity profile] shinyget.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think I've seen them. :o

[identity profile] shichahn.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
I posted a link to the gallery in my LJ quite some time ago, maybe you missed it. http://nikon.bungie.org/misc/artoflukemckay.html

Episode's up, says it'll be up in an hour for non-sponsors. Kind of odd, that it's early for some and late for the rest of us. Huh.

[identity profile] shinyget.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
...What is with him and chicks with moles? Yeah, I can see where you disagree. 8D; I liked what I saw in his gallery, but that was obviously newer stuff.

That is weird.

[identity profile] shinyget.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
Oh look, now it says the wait is 1.5 hours.

[identity profile] shichahn.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
Huh. Well at least that's right. It's still telling me one hour for everyone else on the sponsor page, but that doesn't have a countdown or anything, I think it just approximates to the nearest hour.

[identity profile] shinyget.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 12:44 am (UTC)(link)
Either way, it's right for us plebs, so I guess that's what matters.

[identity profile] shichahn.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
That wallpaper is small but hilarious.

[identity profile] shinyget.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
Click the download button, it's huge and now my current desktop.

[identity profile] shichahn.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
Is it? The info said it was 600x480. Anyway, I like my current desktop better. I have yet to find an RvB one I really like. I've tried making one, but I just can't get a good high-res image that I like to work with.

[identity profile] shinyget.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
That is because you clicked the image to enlarge it. You have to click the download button on the side to get the full thing. It's 1280x1024. I'm using it for now, until I want my Mass Effect one back up. |D

[identity profile] shinyget.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
LJ ate my response to this, so shorthand: blah blah hit download button on side for full image, it's like 1280x1024.

And I am slightly disappointed you don't have a RvB post up yet.

[identity profile] shichahn.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
I guess I didn't feel like there was much to spazz about this week. It was entertaining, but with the buildup of the hour and a half delay and the continued lack of story, it just wasn't spazz-worthy. Entertaining and lulzy but this season's lack of story has been kind of disappointing after Reconstruction set the bar that it did.

[identity profile] shinyget.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
I know, it wasn't very filling for an episode, especially one so close to the end. I just have come to expect a post out of you ever week, man. PEER PRESSURE. 8|

[identity profile] shichahn.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
There were a few interesting things to be gleaned from it. Epsilon can do more Monitor-things, hitting a computer to fix it is always funny, Lopez can make back up copies of himself and therefore is completely confirmed to not be an ifrag so hopefully that will shut up some of the stupid idiot fans who seem determined to make every character secretly an ifrag somehow, and... that might be it.

[identity profile] shinyget.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
...I didn't think people thought Lopez was an ifrag because that is just ridiculous, wtf.

[identity profile] shichahn.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
Not many ever do, but I get really sick and tired of idiots "theorizing" that Lopez, Sheila, Sarge, etc. are ifrags and other random bullshit that obviously isn't even remotely likely.

[identity profile] shinyget.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
I hope they make an alternate ending just to make fun of that.

[identity profile] shichahn.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
That would be awesome.

[identity profile] shinyget.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
I am crossing my fingers for it.

[identity profile] shichahn.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
Re: wallpapers, this one of York is cool. The Tex one is even better but totally the wrong ratio for a desktop.

[identity profile] shinyget.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
...dammit. Totally want a Tex wallpaper now, sob. Or a Blue Team one.

[identity profile] shichahn.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
http://halo3screenshots.com/ has some very photoshoppable high-res caps, I just discovered.

[identity profile] shinyget.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
At a glance, they do not look to be RvB related, unfortunately. :c I'll look at it better once I'm done helping my roomie with her art project.

[identity profile] shichahn.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
Well no, they're not. But they're photoshoppable.

[identity profile] shinyget.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
For those who are more photoshop savvy, perhaps, haha.

[identity profile] zolac-no-miko.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, fun things happened, but nothing terribly exciting. I like that Caboose used Spike's method of fixing machinery, and I was kind of having horrified-at-myself Donut flashbacks.

[identity profile] shichahn.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
YES DONUT OMG AHH. I still don't know how you did that or why you were so good at it.

[identity profile] zolac-no-miko.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
...I think it's just a thing I do. I'm a character-actress. I do this sort of thing all the time, like with L or with Fat Tony. Usually with terrifying results.

Lol ohmigod I just realized that icon is sort of a Donut Dalek. SO SCARY.

[identity profile] shichahn.livejournal.com 2009-10-13 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
... DONUT DALEK OMG. OMG. YES IT IS.
