Meme: interests & icons

[kyrielle]

You comment, I pick three of your interests and three of your icons, and you elaborate on them.

tibicina asked about the following of my interests and icons:

Eversummer Eve is a web manga that is both lovely and interesting. I used to recommend it, but I no longer do since it is now Very Hard to pick up since the archives are only available to paid subscribers.

The Mysterium is a reference to the Deliria roleplaying game from Laughing Pan; the Mysterium is the gathering, in any area, of most of the people In The Know about the truths of the world.

Siren Songs is a mixed reference. In part, it refers to Lauren, my character at A Time Endless and still among my favorite characters, both for original concept and for the arc her actual story took. It also refers to my love of music (as a listener, mostly, but still there) and the fact that music can (if I let it) thoroughly enthrall me.

Icons:

Smiley fish. This icon was one I first encountered on a forum (I no longer know where) as one of those 'mood' smileys. There is this ongoing guppy joke among a large group of friends. At least one substantial portion of it started between myself and condotierre as a joke in a roleplaying game. So when I saw this, I grabbed as an icon, knowing that sooner or later she would post SOMETHING where I could comment with it. I have used it just once or twice - replying to posts where, well, someone deserves thwapped with a fish. Guppy or otherwise.

Bird. This is from a photo that I took myself, I think in Champoeg State Park. I liked it, so I made it into an icon and uploaded it; but I almost never use it because, honestly, I have no sense of when on earth I would use it. Oops.

Leaf. This was made for me by ohiblather during one of those 'make me an icon' memes. I love it, but I use it only occasionally, usually for posts directly related to the autumn season, or occasionally for something with a 'wistful' feel to it.

Pick me, pick me! Me me me! *frantically waves hand*

For interests: *!!!*, alice is_a stateofmind, and timebinding.

For userpics: leap of faith, well it is Tae, and attic wall (because I am really curious given the keyword and the fact that I do not see a wall :).

*grins* Interesting choices, all of them. And you would pick the one of them that I'm not entirely sure about!

So I'm supposed to post my answer in my LJ, eh? Will try to do that at lunch.

I could go for another round of this, so ask away.

[kyrielle]

Hmm. Well, I'm curious about heresies (in the context of your interests), and mythology. And I think I'd enjoy seeing you explain electric knights to your readers even if I know the reference. ;)

As for icons, Time, Tempest, and Never Was.

Random drive-by commenting, but I was doing some bored Googling and found this post - hi hi Lauren!

- Former Cocoa/Isabel on A Time Endless :D

[kyrielle]

*stares* *glees* Hello! How are you? Good to see you!

[tiassa]

Even though I quit MUSHing five years ago, I've been feeling the bug again really bad lately, so I started Googling and ran into you...quite the coincidence. :D

I also find it kind of amusing that you write the kind of software that I use at work every day...

[kyrielle]

I stopped mushing too, though well after you did - a while after Ephemera closed. I was just not finding anywhere I really wanted to play that had activity levels high enough for me to find scenes regularly when I was on. And that's a lot of time to invest for, well, little game.
