My dad keeps on talking to me like I'm a complete idiot, and it's annoying.
I know I'm no expert on computers, but I can do my research. All I asked was how to shop around for parts, and I'm being stonewalled with "you can get them to upgrade the RAM for $X" when I'm already paying upwards of $300 for a better display, and "you can't upgrade the laptop yourself" when you can.
Ugh.
In other news, it's been radio silent over here because I've found a writing forum to post in. Not too lively, but it has a few active regulars to liven things up. I think getting zero to no comments on here makes me act a little crazy, so having a space where I know people will read what I'm writing makes me more level headed.
Also had a breakthrough with Balrok and the side-story The Atalantia. To boil it down, it's Alternate World with Alt History, where the French Revolution-era government convene in Paris and timetravel the city and a chunk of the countryside into the past, take control over Past-France, and continue with the Norman (now French) invasion of Britain.
And that's the backstory.
Hopefully it'll lead to more discoveries in the future, but for now -- research.
Update: So, I think I made my Original Fic too complicated to ever come to fruition. This is talking from a world builder's perspective, as well as that of a lazy asshole. Essentially, I started off with this story idea, and then later on came up with this World-Genesis story that was awesome and sort of got tacked on for funsies. I think if you get right down to it, it was originally for a fic, making things even *more* complicated, but whatever -- topic. Basically... how do I put this... I have a habit of tacking my favorite story ideas onto this one story world, in a sort of "that's cool, but wouldn't it be *cooler* if it happened *here*?", and the World-Genesis is just the biggest symptom of that. So there's this shitton of dispirit story ideas, all mingling together in a cesspool of creativity. Awesome, right? Except they all don't really *fit*. So, here I am, trying to come up with one of my first full-blown magic systems, trying to base it off the meager story so far, and the World-Genesis, and that fae magic system I wanted to try, and this Alt-World I have integrated into the plot, and thinking about how *alien* these peoples *should* be to us, and it all just... turns into a goopy mess, in my head. I don't really see how this is supposed to work. I can see, writing it out, that my perspective on this is a *little* off, but that only helps me so much. Like, I don't need to integrate everything together -- they can just be separate. I don't know how to handle the alien element, even if it is distorted, because that's plot relevant. But, see, I'm conflicted about that, too. Because if I make them *too* alien, they're unrelatable, and if I make them too normal we're completely missing the point of the story. ...Oh. An idea just hit me. Balance. That could work. I'm sure that last part makes no sense, or maybe just sounds obvious and stupid, but I kinda wrote it for me without spoilers, so.
Update:
Imaging an animation set to that song I posted earlier, playing out a climactic scene for my Original Fic. If only I could actually animate things...
But still, I am just so pleased at how many ideas this is giving me. I'm so used to this damn thing being amorphous as hell, so having a seed of stability is just... I don't even know what to do with it. It's wondrous.
Also, I really want to see people's reactions to the new Chapter Fourteen. I know it's going to be, like, two months out now, but... eurgh I just want a reaction from people, because it's good, even without the rest of the edits.
But, whatever -- in other news, written the start of the Sans Scene, or the new Chapter Fifteen. Not the best, but it was the first step, and I was kinda pussyfooting around it a lot. There's around a hundred words, and there's already three four five puns, so I think I'm off to a good start.
Also, protip -- a storm of bad puns actually looks really impressive, when you do it right. Combos, themes, the element of surprise, and just an air of casualness really make you look like you know what you're doing. I mean, look at me -- I have no clue what the hell I'm doing, and I generally don't even like bad puns, but mixing things up for Sans makes this stuff fun. The fact that I’ve essentially spent years absorbing media that was basically fueled by puns does help a little, though.
Update:
Yo. Just here, feeling my head pound intermittently and fucking up my sleep schedule.
It's weird, but it honestly hasn't occurred to me until the last month that song realizations are such a huge plotting tool for me? Like I found a song that 'fit' my Original Fic, and listening to that has given me more ideas than anything has in a long time. It's quite nice.
And it's not the only situation like that, either. There's been at *least* half a dozen heavy-hitting songs affecting how KYH is going to go. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if some song I forgot lead to the major plot twist in the works, at this point.
And here's another weird thing -- most of KYH has been written in August. I started Chapter Six on the first, and finished Fourteen yesterday. I've gotten through about eight chapters in the span of a month. That is fucking amazing, to me.

Update:
Had a song realization about an Original Fic. Or at least I think I did -- it's kinda hard to tell, when it's all amorphous and such. Still nice, though.
Can't tell if the mood shifted or if I just feel shitty, but I practically cursed everything all the way home.
...Hoookay. Just wrote something waaay to dark for the blog, there. I think we can safely go with "mood change".
God, you get creepy when you're depressed, self. Jeeze.
Well, I'm going to continue eating a shit ton of taffy and writing, so have a good day, kiddies.
