[Art] - General Tales of Ordinary Madness

[kasche]

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. ♥

( [Harry Potter] - G to PG - General Tales of Ordinary Madness )

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.

You need to link to it all on shacking_up, you really, really do. There are so many people who read that comm who need to see this ♥

Aw! Thank you so much!

Oh, and there's no way I could mind. :D

[kasche.livejournal.com]

Aw! Thank you so much, sweetie! I'm glad you like it! :D

[mindabbles.livejournal.com]

What a wonderful idea and so beautifully executed. The art matches the stories and they only add to each other. Gorgeous.

oh. OH. ohhhh. god, Bruni, that is so incredibly gorgeous! i know, i know... i always come along and say the same things but that's because i ALWAYS mean them. stop being so talented, will you? :P

but, seriously, you put together a fantastically lovely project. two of my favorite things in the r/s fandom - your art, Cate's words - combined in one? heavenly. ♥

[carmine-ink.livejournal.com]

Oh my god, this is absolutely stunning. I have no words.

[croupier.livejournal.com]

Perfect!!

[georgierae.livejournal.com]

Just want you to know, 'knowing' made me cry.

(but love all the other arts just the same!)

[kasche.livejournal.com]

Thank you dahling! :D I've got to tell you, though, when I first thought of it I was a bit more optimistic. There's a lot of illustrations I had to leave out. :P

[kasche.livejournal.com]

Woah! Thank you so so so much!

[kasche.livejournal.com]

YAY! Oh, isn't it precious and brilliant? I do love that one so. Got to admit, I was uncertain between the scene I did and the one where Remus kisses Sirius on the forehead. I did go a little awwwwwwww at that.

And oh, there's plenty others! :D I counted 41, when I was doing the pre-planning, so. ;P

[kasche.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :D

[kasche.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :D

[kasche.livejournal.com]

Oh. Jojo.

THANK YOU SO MUCH. I don't mind telling you that I got a bit scared, before posting it - or maybe the right term would be freaked out? :P Because, you know. It was either going to work, or it would be something of a total failure, so yeah. But Cate liked it, Ni liked it, Oo liked it, YOU liked it, and a lot of other people did - I was kind of bouncy for pretty much the whole day.

ALSO - I've started an email for you, but my connection is kind of wonky at the moment. As in, LJ works, and the rest of the world (gmail included) doesn't. As soon as it works again I'll finish it. :D

I LOVE YOU.

[kasche.livejournal.com]

Thank you! ♥

[kasche.livejournal.com]

Aw! Thank you!

[kasche.livejournal.com]

Oh my. Thank you, that's a wonderful compliment. Glad you enjoyed it! ♥

[kasche.livejournal.com]

Oh! Thank you!

[kasche.livejournal.com]

Woah! Thank you so so so much! :D

[kasche.livejournal.com]

I can't lay any claim on the titles, they're all Cate's doing ;D (Except from the website's. That one comes from Bukowski. :P) But I'm really so glad you liked this thing! Truly! :D

[kasche.livejournal.com]

THANK you! :D :D :D

[kasche.livejournal.com]

Oh my, thank you! That last story, Knowing, was (is) one of my absolute favorites, and I tried all I could to get it right - so, thank you for that, too. :D

[brighty18.livejournal.com]

Bukowski? Which book>

[penhaligonblue.livejournal.com]

I think the most accurate description of my response would probably be:

Wonder and Amazement!

These are all just top-notch, absolutely incredible, and gorgeous. A fitting tribute to Cate's fic, the ship, and the end of the series. My favorite might be The Splendid Work of Bludgers but that is subject to change, as they are all astoundingly good. I'm wondering whether you've ever been involved in the theatre, as you're able to create such lively, interesting expressions. Much love for you and your beautiful art.

This one (NWS) (http://www.amazon.com/Erections-Ejaculations-Exhibitions-General-Ordinary/dp/0872860612)! The complete title is, er, longer. I only used the last bit. :P
