[Art] - General Tales of Ordinary Madness

Oh, today is such a great day! Why, you ask? But there's the European Championship of Basket starting today! Oh god, I am THAT excited! Well, apart from the fact that I will have to be at the pub when the match is on. And that the VCR isn't currently set up. And I don't think I've got a VHS I could register it on anyway. BUT WHO CARES! Basketball! Lots of it! On a big screen! I honestly can't wait! I only found out yesterday that it was in Spain, though. :( Maybe, if I'd known before I could have forced persuaded someone of the guys to come to Spain with me and see it live. And maybe get a chance to see Nuri, too, before or after. ;P

...

Then again, I did have something to keep me occupied these past few days.

(Here I am cackling madly, in a very evil-overlord kind of style. It's doesn't come over too well if you're reading a written text, so I figured it might be worth mentioning.)

(Oh god, if only I could make a job out of being a tease.)

So... do you remember an old entry of mine? The one where I basically went nuts and started talking about incomprehensible projects/plans/whatever? (The first person who says "yeah, okay, we've read your journal, now would you please say which entry you mean" will get a slap under the head.) Refusing then to elaborate further? This one here.

Well, it's ready. And up. And running. (Also away from me. Oh god please make me shut up...)

So, yeah, my idea of a HP tribute for the end of the series is to focus on only two secondary characters, with a heavy accent on an entirely hypothetical romantic relationship between them, as recounted by just one person in the whole fandom - and GUESS WHAT, IT'S THAT PERSON'S BIRTHDAY TODAY.

(Which, yes, is why this day is great at all. :P I do love basket something atrocious and obnoxious, but this is more important. :D)

(Also, see why I didn't want to say which deadline I'd chosen, days ago? Kinda hard keeping it a surprise from her if I had. :P)

So... this is all for you, Cate. Happy birthday. I hope it'll make you smile. ♥



Title: General Tales of Ordinary Madness
Character(s): mainly Remus and Sirius, but there's a little cameos with James, Peter and Lily.
Rating: G to PG.
Warnings: Just some boylove!
Notes: Happy birthday [livejournal.com profile] sheafrotherdon!




And there is more to come! I am not happy about it, but it'll probably be hard for me to get online today. There's a fair chance I might not be able to before tomorrow, or even the day after that. So, well. Yeah. But there will be more!


And since I am an order freak, I suppose it wouldn't hurt to have a "summary" of all the pics posted so far. All links lead to devart pages, save for one, which goes to a page here on lj.

Wow...just, wow.
I feel like it's my birthday, too!
The combination of your art and Cate's stories is divine.

This is absolutely beautiful. I think the last illustration killed me a little. Remus' face, his hands... omg

that's beautiful, I read most of those fics and it's so nice to see them illustrated, you really did an amazing job *is impressed*

The Splendid Work of Bludgers is so funny, I just love how you did Sirius there, The Great Golden Gormless Worm of Flobber is awesome, lol, Knowing is perfect, you can feel that embrace, but my favourite would have to be Mints for the Drunk ;)

Oh Cate Cate CATE! (If by the last one you mean the year Without Fairies - turn the page clicking on the arrow, there's three/four more after that. ;D) Oh god, OH GOD, I'M JUST SO HAPPY. So. You really have no idea. (Though maybe the fact that I wrote an introduction in this entry bout 5000 words long might have hinted at how nervous I was...) I stayed online until five seconds after you commented - I really didn't have the time to reply straight away, and I wasn't hoping I'd have the chance to reply now - and I'm telling you, when I saw your reply my legs were actually shaking a little bit. :P (And, I confess, I freaked out on at least four separate times in the couple days before posting it. ;D) I'd been thinking for the longest time of something I could do for you, you know? And god, that time I caught you on Y!M! It's almost a good thing I couldn't stay longer. Keeping myself from mentioning anything was actually hurting me. :P (And for the record, remember that you told me you would have been there the next Thursday? I actually managed to make it so that I would have been free on Friday morning, but I ended up falling asleep on the couch. ^^;)

Oh, and when I said that I've got more I actually did mean it! And... well, when I first started contemplating it I honestly had meant to do an illustration for each story - or at least, if not each, at least a lot more than that. There are so many that I left out, that I really wanted to draw - and I'm talking about a physical need here! THAT's how your writing makes me feel.

...hahaha, I just remembered... didn't I mention once, on some review to one of your stories, that I wanted to build you a shrine? Could this count as one?

You know what, though? This afternoon I was thinking back to this, and... you know, I didn't feel satisfied. I had read your comment, don't worry about that, but... it wasn't enough. I still think it's not, by the by. I mean - you're an amazing person! I adore you! You deserve a lot more than this!


Oh, for the record - I am still one birthday gift short. I'm not forgetting that. ;P

[identity profile] onehundredmoons.livejournal.com 2007-09-04 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
Wow, you never cease to amaze me! What an awesome gift!

(And happy basketball!)

[identity profile] kasche.livejournal.com 2007-09-04 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, thank you thank you thank you!

And her stories should be reread ALL THE TIME, I say! ;P Really, they make me so stupidly happy!

[identity profile] kasche.livejournal.com 2007-09-04 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
Oh MY! Thank you! Thank you so much! You're the sweetest thing EVER!

[identity profile] kasche.livejournal.com 2007-09-04 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
And thank you so much for leaving me such a sweet comment. :) I'm so glad you like!

[identity profile] kasche.livejournal.com 2007-09-04 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
Oh my, thank you! Thank you so much!

[identity profile] kasche.livejournal.com 2007-09-04 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
Tesora, grazie grazie grazie! :D ♥

[identity profile] kasche.livejournal.com 2007-09-04 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
Cate deserves more, I say. ;D THANK YOU. So much, for everything you've done. ;)

[identity profile] kasche.livejournal.com 2007-09-04 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
Oh man. I-- oh man. Really, I don't know what to say to that. Thank you so incredibly much. ♥

[identity profile] kasche.livejournal.com 2007-09-04 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
Aw, thank you!

[identity profile] schemingreader.livejournal.com 2007-09-04 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
At least two of the other people on my flist were like me--just as touched by the love in the gesture as by the beauty of the drawings. Fans of fannishness. I can't believe we get to see such pretty things for free every day.

[identity profile] kasche.livejournal.com 2007-09-04 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
I saw their comments, and man, I was so speechless. It's hard to think that you were actually talking about me, you know? And I'm not just saying that.

[identity profile] sheafrotherdon.livejournal.com 2007-09-04 01:37 am (UTC)(link)
I DIDN'T SEE THE REST!!

Okay you have . . . *attempts to find the words* - that last illustration, from 'Knowing'? IT COMPLETELY BREAKS ME. Oh god, I love them in that moment SO MUCH, when they're finally back together, and the fact that I can now *see* Remus' fingers twined in Sirius' hair! asdjhflaksdjhf *sniffles* BOYYYYYYYYS.

Oh god, Bruni it's just so beautiful - I don't think I'm ever going to be able to thank you enough *squishes you*

[identity profile] kasche.livejournal.com 2007-09-04 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
See the guy in the icon? That's kind of me right now, because that's one pic I just had to do my best to get right. Oh, that story touched me SO MUCH. I'd actually meant to make Remus hug him even tighter, but hello, I'm even less apt at drawing bodies than I thought I was. ;P

And aaaah, if only I'd organized my time better I could have done more! D:

*SQUEEEEEZES!*

[identity profile] kasche.livejournal.com 2007-09-04 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
Gaaah, thank you! Oh, I'm so glad! I tried all I could to make those pics, but I didn't spend on them as much time as I would have liked, not if I wanted to get quantity. :/ But I'm really, really happy you liked them anyway. :D

And oh my god, do read her stuff! The woman is amazing!
