Between the Earth and the Stars

So I was looking through my stuff, and realized this fic wasn't on my journal. WELP. Can't have that, now can I? Even though I haven't written in heaven knows how long, I might start up again...Maybe.

Anyway, here we are.
EDIT: LOL I forgot Flying types aren't technically strong against Ground types. They aren't effected, but they aren't Strong against them.

51. Childhood
Characters: Lil' Giovanni, Lil' Seren
Rating: G
Notes: the First in a series about Giovanni and Seren as young trainers. In an anime style, complete with anime physics. ^^
( It's more embarassing than you think.. )

 So I'm... kind of completely addicted to sumabura_gakuen and its chat and everything...dammit. Normally I don't get addicted like this to something, but... I think because I'm actually talking to these people and making friends with them...and playing Giovanni's fuuuun. theindigokid 's working on a Silver app, too, sooo...we may get to play together soon.
As for how Gio's doing, most of the time he's having to tell people who know about him "Yeah, I'm that guy, but I left that life behind me." But he's making a few friends... He and Knuckles the Echidna are all giddy about archaeology and digging and stuff... so they're getting along great. Knuckles even promised to help him get back into his exercise regimen and get one of the other guys to teach him to bench more.

Now all we need is a Byron and we can have the  "I LOVE DIGGING!" squad... (You should click that link, it's hilarious)
Also, that'd be the most awesome buddy squad ever. I mean, 2 Dan Greens and a Ted Lewis? *_* The earth should only be so lucky.
It would be the Manliest man squad.

Scarily enough, Giovanni and BJ's CYRUS are kind of getting along...for now, any way. I have a feeling Vanni's going to mention his wife at some point... at which point the conversation will go downhill as Cyrus goes on a rant about how such things are meaningless...Thankfully they haven't met each other face to face, or Giovanni may be tempted to strangle him. >_> Bonus points if Cyrus mentions his "perfect world" and Giovanni mentions "My father often spoke of a world to come that was perfect...however, your world was NOT it." (because I just the info from my little puppet that his father was Catholic... will you give me this stuff earlier, already?!)

Also, my little Geology teacher may or may not look like this on the first day of teaching...
( picture! )

:3 Isn't he pretty?! It took me a double take to realize who it was. *_* Glasses!Vanni looks great!

And... I may or may not have this song stuck in my head... I don't like how the original sounds, but I love the beat to this one.

Um, let's see if I can think of anything substantial... Um, the retreat went okay. Although I want to beat them for being inconsistent. I mean, if you're going to make only people who's parents or Grandparents are Jewish full members, at least act like a Jewish organization, dammit. They couldn't even be bothered to seperate meat and cheese... what the hell? And they had normal marshmallows for s'mores, which have gelatin in them... ARE YOU KIIDDING ME?!

I'm going to try to post a bit more often now, and I'm hoping my computer will stop ditzing out long enough to get more icons done for PTOG. Seriously, you should go read it. It's the coolest thing and pretty awesome.

Also, I have the sneaking suspicion I'm going to hear some complaining from someone in dear_mun soon. He's not thrilled I've barely touched him or his wife in awhile (not in that way, perverts!). @_@ I'll write you guys something soon, i promise!

Alright, I need to try to get ready for service. I've got a headache, but hopefully it will go away soon. Laters!

asdfghjkl;

Giovanni's app!

=D


Sadly enough, angerment caused this app to be written tonight.

h well, not complaining!

So I felt distinctly unfabulous unromantic today, so I'm afraid the VDay fic will have to wait.
In fact, I felt downright shitty and bitter today.
I guess it has to do with last night and thinking about my childhood and talking about it with blackjackrocket . Then I was at the store, realized I didn't get anything for Valentine's Day (I did but didn't realize it), and picked myself up some strawberries covered in chocolate...and then it hit me that my mother was not only married by my age, but probably pregnant with me...
So yeah. Cue bitterness.
EDIT: Damn, I just realized I've kind of been selfish and a bitch today... *apologies to EVERYONE*

So, while I'm posting a story, it's...well, it technically a romance, but mostly a drama/angst.
I've actually been meaning to refer to this event at some point...
It isn't very well written, IMHO, but hopefully you'll like it a little.
So, here's the story:

Title: Letting go
Characters: Gavriel and Dvorah Awres, Seren, Giovanni, G&S's kids
Genre: Romance/drama/angst
Notes: Actually goes along with the VDay fic I'll post later, when I can manage it
Mia Stella- "My star" in Italian
Neshama- "My soul" in Hebrew
Ema- "mother" in Hebrew, but also can indicate a grandmother or mother-figure

Summary: An extremely shortened version of two people dealing with pain.
Happens between Madame Boss’s sentencing in Bare, and his taking over Team Rocket in the same story.
Part two occurs a few years in the future (so they’re in their early 40s, probably 42 to be exact)


( "Have you ever considered just...letting go?" )

( Story notes )
And now that that's posted, I'm going to go eat something, now that I feel better.
Hope you like!

*sigh* apparently I cut out just enough of Wanted that it didn't make much sense, so here's what i have written...
Notes: Sometime close in the future, the world has started to fall apart. A mysterious group of bounty hunters has emerged in the chaos to clean up the mess, but will their own pasts catch up with them? . 


(  REDONE Wanted preview [you know you want to read it] )
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*sigh* and that's all I've got for know, sorry for it cutting off like that. I promise to continue working on it...

Hope this version makes more sense...You know, for a preview...

In other news, I did my alloted 30 minutes of WiiFit today. Let's hope I can keep this up...
Dammit, my stomach is sore from one of the yoga poses... >_<

And I also have bloodwork in the morning... *gets in hot chocolate and some sweets before midnight*

So happy MLK day to you all, and for some reason I'm at a Gwinnett Gladiators hockey game (Daddy's company paid for the tickets, so we decided to do something different). It's not terrible, it's not spectacular, it's something different.

Although I will admit the music at the beginning was effin' EPIC, and when they brought the players in, they used cathedral bells...

Mother effin' cathedral bells...

Damn...

I seriously want to use the music as inspiration when I write Giovanni and Seren facing off against the Indigo Plateau now.
*videoed*

At least it's more entertaining than football. (Grown men beating around a piece of heavy frozen plastic with sticks > grown men kicking pigskins over goals) :/

Giovanni: did that screen seriously just say "yell y'all"??? O_o
Hadassah: welcome to Georgia, Sakaki-sama...
Seren:...wow...I can feel the redneck air corrupting my mind...
Hadassah: you have no idea...

Okay, I'm going to get something at the stand while the zamboni's going.

I'll try to post some previews later...

Later!

Hm, so I got bored after coming home, I started wondering..what the hell do i call my shipping? Rocketshipping is taken, obviously (Jessie and James, and I am an avid Rocketshipper), Commandshipping is Giovanni/Domino [rant] (which grosses me out to no end because NEVER have I seen a fic where it's not strictly him being a pedo and/or the relationship being strictly sexual... PEDOPHILIA is NOT cool [you lose every cool point if you are this]) ... Uggggggggggggh, I seriously get physically sick if I read the stuff, it's so base...
[/rant]
Okay, let me get back on track...
Anyway, I was wondering what to name Giovanni/Seren... So far, I've come up with...

Earthstar-shipping (Do you need me to explain this??)
Sakashi (Sakaki + HoSHIko, the Japanese version of Seren)
Rochatshipping (XD)

I personally like Earthstar...

I dunno, what do you folks think??? Any ideas?
In retrospect, I like Wordsnatcher's Second-in-Commandshipping (heh heh heh)...she originally put it as Domino/Junior, but since Seren's the
S-I-C...
AHA, I know! Domino/junior is Heirshipping! ^.^ Woohoo! *lists in interests*

lemme know what you think works! <3

Also, what the hell is up with the random shakes I'm getting? I thought it might be from getting cold, but I'm not feeling cold necessarily when it happens... WebMD says "acute stress reaction", but that doesn't make sense. Hm...

And I forgot how AWESOME Ratatouille is! That movie makes me smile so hard... :-D

A Just for Fun post:

 So, since my mother has kind of made me in partial charge of food from time to time, I decided I'd share "recipes" with ya'll. And by recipes, I mean what I decided to throw together on a moment's notice =)
Tagline: "Holy carp, Cassandra's cooking". ideal for students, bachelors, bacherlorettes, and people who are just feeling lazy/have random stuff lying around. :-)

( Today's recipe corner: 'Deconstructed' Chicken Mozzarella (like chicken Parmesan, but with Mozzarella)! )
Join me next time when I attempt to cook! ^.^

Until next time,
Cassandra "What the hell is this stuff" Bryars

Warning, youtube videos on this page! Hopefully they won't start automatically.

FINALLY done with the last week of schoolwork, and I just did 3 of 4 finals! Woohoo!

Also about done with a cover for a friend's book. When the book's published I put the cover up.

Neck's still stiff, and I think a couple of vertabrae are slightly misaligned; I don't believe my insurance (I think I'm back on now) covers chiropractors... Hmph, how annoying.

Hooray, Hanukkah Day one's Friday! *cheers* I know I'm getting Wii Fit Plus and the new Zelda game, not sure what else I'm getting... Got Andy My Sims Agents for the Wii, and I know the parents got him the New Super Mario game.
Going to go to Toco Hills tomorrow after my final final (hahaha) to get last minute supplies for the festival, namely candles.

And I just realized I'm not entirely sure what I'm getting Mike, Steve and Sara... or my parents...
Hm. A bit of a problem...
Technically I could get my Dad a special passport holder that blocks the RFID from being seen, since he has to go to London a lot... *hops onto Thinkgeek for ideas* Oh my bob, they have a plush zombie you can dismember <3 So cute, in such a creepy way.

(Lots of links, but they help with the jokes!)

Junior: ^_^ I got Domino and my mom this last year when we found out they were pregnant.
Giovanni: Yes, and I remember you spending a week on the couch.
Junior: :-( Not my fault they have no sense of humour during the first trimester...
Giovanni: And now you know what I have dealt with through all the times your mother has been pregnant. Including this last time.
Junior: What are you getting Mom?
Giovanni: Jewelry, some books... a very nice tallit set. The triplets are getting baby stuff, as usual.
Junior: Oooo, shiny. You have the Boaz, right?
Giovanni: Yes, rather fitting for a convert like myself, though in reversal. So... dare I ask what you are getting your wife and child this year?
Junior: I learned my lesson, I played it safe with Domi... jewelry.
Giovanni: Good.
Junior: For Van, a bunch of baby stuff.... including this!
Giovanni: ... *slams head in wall* >_< Gah... Why, oh why did I ask....



Also, three songs to list today, since I've had some requests... read: one. :-P
The first is Seren's theme, Tsumi na Bara; the second, Giovanni's: Crimson King; & the 3rd, a song called "Song of Truth", that, whenever I hear it, I cry a little. It sounds prophetic, and also sounds like something from my story... I suppose it depends on the listener... but, my mind can't help but go Messianic on it, and at the same time, the plea in the song to be changed 'only a little' sounds like Seren and giovanni, to me anyway... Whatever. I post, you decide what it means to you! :-)

( Sinful Rose )

( Giovanni's Theme: Crimson King )

And then, Shinjitsu no Uta...
Every time I see the first lines, I swear I think of Legacy...
( Japanese and English lyrics )

Is it talking about them, or is it something of a higher purpose...
Maybe both?
[/Jewish block logic]

Either way, gorgeous song.

I have very little of a life... :)

Okay, enough of my weirdness for now. I'm going to study my math for a bit (Ugg!), playing Wildhollow, then hitting the hay at some point (no guarantee soon!).

Khalomot tovim veLaila Tov!

Sweet dreams and good night!
