so yeah, I figured I'd finally post this. I've been struggling with it for like...seven months now? but that's probably making it sound like a ~supersignificant~ piece though it's really not climactic at all. Just little plot-like details that might come up later.

Anyway, more graveyard adventures. This whole story-arc will be wrapped up soon (it wasn't meant to have even nearly as many parts as it does now but I guess it keeps me writing so yeah). Also, the POV switches somewhere along the way here...I tried to fix it but it didn't work out any other way. Hopefully that doesn't take away from everything else...

( you have gone and dreamt them dry )

so I've discovered my problem. It's not that I don't have ideas, its that I am completely lacking the attention span required to sit down and put them into words. Anyway, I found a rough version of an old piece on my computer and though I'd pretty much abandoned the idea of doing anything else relating to this story, rereading it made me miss it and so I fixed it up a bit and maybe there will be more, who knows? (I sure don't)

I guess this can be the 'and so it begins' part of the story or something?

Geez it's been a month + eh? This better not be the new trend.

Anywho, here it is, the long awaited. You'd think i'd write something better having taken a month.

( A's thoughts )

feels like a year since I posted or something. nothing epic or significant, just a random piece from story #3 which gets abandoned on and off (I'm starting to think it can only really be written in the warmer seasons)...sort of inspired by the random study break pizza runs we'd made from Robarts at 3 a.m. and me missing the city in general now that I'm back in suburbia for good

Lol, so I was thinking about this topic a bit on the go train and decided to dump my thoughts onto paper. Let me know if this is tedious to read, or complete BS, or illogical. In my head I had it pretty well thought through, so ask questions if they are any.

and i couldn't let it go a whole month without a post.

sigh so keep in mind I just wrote this up with little to no editing.

haha, this got sorta long...

writing about writer's block is always fun. Hah, I don't know when this is set...probably somewhere near the end of the series...yeah, I still have 2 ongoing pieces to finish >_<

okay this was a long time coming mostly because i never bothered to finish it properly. actually the ending section i left out because i just couldn't make it work. maybe i'll post that as a separate. any who, hope this piece keeps BB alive a little longer.

oh and the not using of 'starbuicks' is in case this ever does get published, it would be terrible if i were to be sued.

hope i haven't forgotten how to write...

so yeah, this is totally not graveyard adventures (not even remotely linked to the plot of AS at all) but wonderfully relevant to the happenings in real life somehow. also, I just wanted to write, and who cares if it makes sense, right?

( seems like death loved you back )( X's Thoughts )

I've been wondering for a long time how I would approach this piece. Sorry for taking so long to post. And okay, this piece may have been initially inspired by HIMYM.

oh, lol, I may have found myself an equivalent to your MCAT prep class guy. Mine is the 'new girl with the unplaceable accent'

more G.A. (part 3c)

yeah, I'm totally flooding, and don't worry, I don't expect you read it till next week or whatever but I think posting just lets me move the hell on from a piece and work on other stuff, so yeah...

If all goes well, I think there are 2 more pieces of graveyard adventures, and yeah, you're right, I really should string it together with b&w though they do take place a while apart (...I think this one comes after, as weird as it may sound)

</end rant>

Switching again, but hah, hopefully the silliness of this will counter the moodiness of the past few pieces.

I will read your post in the flashes of flashes, however, I took the time to create a 90's playlist and I thought you may want to see and maybe add to it. I checked out some top 100 lists of 95-99 and took all of the none boy band, none rap/r&b songs (most of the time). Some of these are no-brainers, some surprised me. Obviously very biased as to what I consider( Hits of the 90's! )

Still not happy with it & I'm sure it's riddled with sentences that are probably way too wordy and only sometimes make sense to me but I've sorta reached the point where I can't make myself read through it anymore.
if I'm lucky, part 3 will be done before January's over & there will be (somewhat) happier pieces later on (post the December mess), honest.

here's the song for this one: Lydia - This is Twice Now

( second time now and you've done this before )

So you might need a little prereading for this piece. I checked, the last time i posted Paris/Vienna was more than 6 months ago! *smacks self for the neglection*

This is the continuation of these two pieces that I had never written:



Part 1

Part 2

and here is Part 3:

commented, but oh GOD I am such an idiot. I kind of did it right inside your post instead of copy/pasting >_< sorry!!!

yeah, I'm still debating whether or not I should give up on the December thing altogether. Problem is, it seems to fit nowhere in terms of my original timeline but it's also turned into an 8-page monster (and once something goes past 4 pages, my heart has a tendency to break at the thought of abandoning it). At any rate, I'll try to butcher fix it a bit more and hopefully post it before December actually ends *sigh* meanwhile, have a tiny dose of more graveyard adventures. At least this, I can deal with. 'Part 3' by itself is monstrous in size, so I'm posting it in mini-parts as well (and buying myself time).

but posting after over a month...wth? god, I don't even think my official hiatuses were this long

edit: made some progress with my December Disaster. so expect a flood soon? =D

sorry this took so long, it was begun last week and finished this. Another display of Milo's imagination self and real self.

and i've just realized, i miss paris/vienna. I think i'm going to read over their beginning and rekindle that story for a bit this winter break.

anywho here it is:

( A's thoughts )

it's finally done! bah, this thing is a monster. I also hope it sounds better than I think it does. lol, i think to me the concept had boundless potential, but i didn't take full advantage. Anyways, read at your own discretion, its long.

oh and I realize the first chunk isn't actually 'lucky' but meh,

( A's thoughts )

haha you're gonna kill me though I did issue a fair warning! take your time in reading, etc, but you should probably get used to these two since there's a lot more of this written out.

This one's continued directly from the last part (and fortunately, these mini-pieces will at least have some sort of connection within themselves). Anyway, it's funny because I swear that--in another universe--they could have been best friends.

So I’ve figured that until I graduate (or sadly, maybe even long after), the only way I can write Acta Solaris is in this mini-side-story format that may/may not tie into the whole grand scheme of things in terms of plot. Still, I want to keep writing it because a) it’s fun & b) I’m worried I’ll lose practice with these characters (actually, I think I already have). Let me know if this is annoying, lol.

The 'black&white' story-arc is kinda resting for now. I'm not even sure where this one fits though I guess before b&w. Not sure if it has a future or a place in the finished product but I’ve got a few parts written and it’s fun so far. (lol, maybe I should just publish a book of short stories featuring these kids)
