hear my beaten heart exclaim: Today in "I didn't know they were Black!!": Ludwig Van Beethoven
The true identity of Ludwig van Beethoven, long considered Europe’s greatest classical music composer. Said directly, Beethoven was a black man. Specifically, his mother was a Moor, that group of Muslim Northern Africans who conquered parts of Europe—making…
Cosh I Can: spicedpiano: coshledak: I kind of want to write something that isn’t...
I kind of want to write something that isn’t K&C. Not that I want to give up on it, I guess. Just something else. Something lighter, maybe…
Nothing wrong with that! Obviously I’m totally addicted to K&C and don’t want you to abandon it, but sometimes it’s nice…
I’ve thought about that as well (converting RP into fic) and it’s…extremely challenging. Even tried it once, actually. The hardest part is dealing with the POV shifts mid-chapter and something even mid-page or mid-paragraph and trying to grasp that third omniscient voice without seeming trite or like you’re writing a children’s story. If you do decide to do this and manage it well, please share your secrets! Lara (my RP partner) and I have 35 AUs (well, and including canon and variations thereupon) and there are at least three I kind of wish we could transform into fic, but the actual process of going about that seems overwhelmingly difficult.
burnthemidnight asked: 80, 57, 19, 7, 2. You should name some questions for me too!
80 (what do you have to do tomorrow?)- attend the PSYC 101 lecture and sit quietly in the front row setting a good example even though I’m not being graded in that class, quite simply because I’m the TA.
57 (have you ever kissed someone whose name starts with the letter J)- I don’t believe so.
19 (would you change your eye color if you could?)- No. Maybe only to make it a more vivid or striking shade of the color they already are.
7 (what exactly are you wearing right now?) - black skinny jeans, grey dress, black leather jacket, grey Toms, citrine drop necklace, bobby pins.
2 (would you date an 18-year-old at the age you are now?) - probably not. It’d have to be a super special circumstance, like 18 y/o genius or something. And the 18 y/o would probably have to be female because I’m way too into older men to want to go younger.

Nothing wrong with that! Obviously I’m totally addicted to K&C and don’t want you to abandon it, but sometimes it’s nice to break up the angst with a little fluffy novella!fic or one-shot or new series. I’d look forward to reading anything you came out with, at any rate. :)
Happy Tuesday!
For nekosmuse > from Scenes from the Wild
When Charles & Erik first meet. (Charles is dabbing spilled tea off Erik’s jacket with his scarf in the first panel.)
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Flailing. Flailing I tell you! OMG! He’s smelling Charles’ hair! Oh, Erik. You delightful, socially inept idiot. You’re so lucky Charles loves you. Seriously, seriously, this is just perfect. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Oh, look at the way he’s looking at Charles! I can’t even.
PERFECTION.
