[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.

Notes: Happy birthday

sheafrotherdon!

( [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.

Oh, Bruni! Oh, oh, oh, oh! I'm - speechless! And all teary-eyed, especially from that very last illustration. I don't think I've ever seen anything quite so beautifully fond and sweet - god, those boys! Okay, I have to have a wee birthday weep of joy, I think *fumbles for kleenex*

YOU ARE SO AWESOME!! *blushes madly*

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

Oh hon, this is beautiful! What a lovely tribute to Cate and to the R/S ship. Now I'm feeling the need to go reread a bunch of her stories. :-)

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!

OMG, this is quite possibly the best thing ever!!! Brilliant work on *all* of it. I think the one for "Knowing" *might* be my favorite, but it's kind of hard to choose—they're all extremely flailworthy and made of awesome. <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Oh MY! Thank you! Thank you so much! You're the sweetest thing EVER!

I don't think I've ever commented her before, but never mind that.

This is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen - in this fandom, in fandom, and in general. Just... beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing.

And thank you so much for leaving me such a sweet comment. :) I'm so glad you like!

Bravo!
This is the best hp SR tribute I have ever seen! Thank you for sharing this beautiful work.

Oh my, thank you! Thank you so much!

Knowing è meraviglioso, gli altri altrettanto stupendi...
Ma questo... spetta che me lo rimiro ancora un po' :°)

Tesora, grazie grazie grazie! :D ♥

You already know what I think of this, but I'm always repeating myself so:

OMG! this is so wonderful! A great idea, lots of beautiful drawings, I love all of them but the Jollies is one of the happiest, most adorable things I've ever seen, and Knowing ... *dies*

What a wonderful thing you've done, Bruni. There's so much beauty and joy and love. And Cate SO deserves the present :)

I LOVE YOU *HUGS*

Cate deserves more, I say. ;D THANK YOU. So much, for everything you've done. ;)

I recced this, here (http://schemingreader.livejournal.com/211133.html), because I don't think it's fair that only the official puppy-shippers should get to enjoy your fantastic present.

Oh man. I-- oh man. Really, I don't know what to say to that. Thank you so incredibly much. ♥

Lovely, tender and soulful!

Aw, thank you!

i dunno what to say. and that's saying something.

i just love those!! you're so much made of awesome, baby! they look so lively, i love their expressions, clothing, hair, compositions... the way you've really captured the moments :) and the effort you've put on this, you Mysterious Person! eeee!! just wondelrful work!

awww. aww awww aw!!

(and i haven't read

sheafrotherdon's fics--but you really gave me the spirit to do that!)

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!

I came over from

schemingreader's rec. What a gorgeous gift! Thank you so much for sharing it with everyone.

I hope you don't mind, but I friended you, too. I realized that I'd seen your work before and really loved it, but had been too lazy to search you out earlier.

Aw! Thank you so much!

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

How wonderful! I really like it: pics when clicking on it which become darker, the general presentation... great work! XD

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

Oh, eeeee, how creative and marvellous and sweet and eeeee!! I have so many new stories to read now! And the illustrations are all just lovely. You win at presents! :)

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

Oh wow that was brilliant. Absolutely, toe-curlingly, beautifully brilliant.

I love birthdays in fandom, because it's not just the birthday girl/boy who reaps the rewards and presents, we all win.

Woah! Thank you so so so much!

Oh, wow - that is fantastic. I love it! Also, The Three Sleepless Nights of Sirius Black is one of my favourite favourite favourite fics ever. I didn't realise that

sheafrotherdon had written other</i fics! (I'm stupid, I know) Thanks for making me realise that so that I can find them! :D

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

That was absolutely lovely. I'm putting this in my memories.

Thank you! :D

Fwee! That was amazingly brilliant!

Thank you! :D

My god, Bruni. They're amazing. You're amazing.

Blushing Remus was perfect. Just perfect. That may be my favorite incarnation of Remus, actually. Awww. And Sirius asleep in the hospital wing. Oh, they are both so gorgeous in that picture. I mean, SO GORGEOUS. And the mint one! Am I a bad person, or just too pervy for my own good that I couldn't stop looking at thier hips in that one? Don't answer that. Oh, but the last one! That was so astonishingly beautiful and prefect and Bruniful and wonderful and all things good all in one picture.

They were all lovely. You really are spectacular, woman.

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.

Absolutely lovely!

Thank you! ♥

This is so wonderful! The drawings, the website, and just the thought itself - thank you for doing this for Cate. :DD

Aw! Thank you!

These are all so, so beautiful. Your style matches the stories perfectly -- and looking at this does make me want to reread each one. Thanks so much for posting this.

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

I am absolutely stunned with the brilliance of this I have no words to describe how excellent this is.

Oh! Thank you!

Ohhh, that's amazing, lady! Fantastic website work and the art is awesome!

Woah! Thank you so so so much! :D

I really enjoyed reading this and I mean the WHOLE EXPERIENCE of reading this. Your pictures were great and the titles were hilarious! Very nicely done!

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
