Beta Search

[ink_splotch]

I am seeking a beta for something that might be either the most pretentious thing I have ever written, or actually pretty good. It's original, so no particular knowledge is needed, and it's for the '1000 word challenge'. Any takers?

For all that I detest snow at any time save for my Christmas break, it does look very pretty and peaceful now, with the moon out; it's incredible bright and clear. It helps that I am in a bit of a romantic mood; have been ever since I saw 'A Very Long Engagement' which was beautiful, absolutely beautiful. Recommended for everyone, particularly if you like wistful, hopeful movies. Which this was, oh God, it was so beautiful, and the characters so alive, so quirky. 'She plays the tuba because it reminds her of the distress signal from ships'. Though, it did help that I saw it with Rasmus - sometimes, I love him so much. Not in any romantic way, but just...just sort of because he's Rasmus, and he's sensitive, he's silly, he's stupid, inconsiderate, idiotic, stubborn and so much braver than me, so smart and so clever, so intelligent and incredibly insightful. Hm. He drives me insane, but he's something else, and he's my Rasmus and always will be, in a way.

It's incredible how uninsightful I am at near midnight. I should get to bed; will do so as soon as I finish this Sherlock Holmes fic. Saw a wonderful adaption of SIGN yesterday; not the Granada production, and not that faithful to canon (Miss Morstan was much, much younger than Watson and there was no romantic storyline there), but it had some wonderful Holmes/Watson; I enjoyed it greatly.

I should get to bed, really.

Ooh! Me! Pick me!

I'd love it if you could!

I'm not sure I want to see the movie, but I definitely want to see Rasmus. I have now heard about him for almost four years (yes, we've know each other for four year. February 8th, I think), but I have never met him. I think we should do something about that!

Sherlock/Watson scares me. Sure, I can see it's there, but it still scares me.

Wow. Four. That's pretty awesome ;)

Bah, they're cute.

[shubassdk.livejournal.com]

'Tis! And they have been wonderful, each and every one of them *hugs*

[vampirespider.livejournal.com]

They have been amazing *cuddles*

I'll try, but I haven't got much time right now, so it'll probably be superficial.

Your package arrived. It's undamaged, but do you want me to open it just to be sure?

oooooooh. Should go see A Very long engagement. Check.

[vampirespider.livejournal.com]

I'll send it to you, and you don't have tp correct anything, just tell me what you think.

Oh, please. But no watching! ;)

YES YOU SHOULD!

[lattara.livejournal.com]

Okay. I'll do that, then. (Haven't even started my own yet, sigh)

Heee! I won't! (I opened it, and everything seems to be fine.)

EEEEEEEEEEEE!

I wrote all of mine last night; the idea came to me Friday, and it's actually inspired by Rasmus and a complete ripoff his writing. Needless to say, I'm not sure I'll turn it in.

YAY! I wanna see it nownownownownownow. Waaah!

It's wonderful. You will love it, absolutely love it.

I've only just peeked at it, but I think you should.


Eeeee! I knów!

I think I will. :) A friend of mine owes me a trip to the cinema. I think I'll go see what I can do about cashing that one in. *g*

[vampirespider.livejournal.com]

Hm, really? I don't know...


CASH IN! With that movie! It's so, so beautiful and poetic.

[lattara.livejournal.com]

I'll be able to tell you more tomorrow. I merely peeked at the start and the end.

I think I'm going to. *nods*

[vampirespider.livejournal.com]

You rock so much! Thank you!

That's my girl
