I keep PLANNING to do this Percy Jackson post but I suck at writing… - a medley of extemporanea
http://miss-daizy.livejournal.com/435813.html
A medley of extemporanea. Oct 28th, 2012. I fell like Jobs is the Greek son for some reason.) A demigod marriage - clearly the Clintons - Hilary is a daughter of Ares married to a son of Athena. And then I ran out of ideas because that's how my brain rolls these days. How about you guys? Are there demigods amongst us and if so, who are they? 8 comments Leave a comment.

Because I still can't talk about anything important, I'll just link… - a medley of extemporanea
http://miss-daizy.livejournal.com/435398.html
A medley of extemporanea. Oct 11th, 2012. Because I still can't talk about anything important, I'll just link to this bit of words. Also, in keeping with my last post. The Mark of Athena! I somehow thought the series was going to be a trilogy so I starting getting a bit WFT? About 2/3 of the way through. Also, should have re-read the first two again - I was sort of lost on some important stuff. Like how many books are going to be in the series *eye roll*. 11 comments Leave a comment. I definitely need to...

So, I just finished watching "Avatar: The Last Airbender". Amazing… - A Girl like me
http://zahdi.livejournal.com/157046.html
A Girl like me. May 27th, 2009. So, I just finished watching "Avatar: The Last Airbender". Amazing series, btw, go out and watch it all now if you like anime at all. But, then I made the mistake of checking out the progress on the live action remake. By M Night Shyamalan. Wow I I'm so shocked that they're still doing this shit. It. it's like "Kung Fu" and Bruce Lee all over again =( ( (. In honor of the Avatar casting. This guy posted a list of Yellowface moments in Hollywood history. What in the fuck.

Latin Translations: little_details
http://little-details.livejournal.com/3483110.html
One of my stories decided it needed a country with a shadowy council of people with ridiculous Latin titles. While I don't really need 100% perfect Latin (the rule of cool is definitely in play here), I'd like to know the accurate Latin (because, well, because I like knowing the correct thing before I choose the less correct, aesthetically better thing). Setting info and ridiculousness behind the cut. I know just enough about Latin to know that I don't have a clue how it works. The Flame of Knowledge.

[ANON POST] Chinese Word/Nickname Help: little_details
http://little-details.livejournal.com/3483608.html
ANON POST] Chinese Word/Nickname Help. Time period: modern day. I'm currently writing a modern AU of the 1930s pulp character The Shadow, and I've hit a language snag. He's known as 'The Shadow' across a couple of different languages in the various New York and international communities he deals with, and in Chinese he's famously called 'Ying Ko'. Problem being: according to what I can turn up, Ying Ko doesn't actually have a meaning. Much less 'The Shadow' (or 'Dark/Black Eagle' as a few sources claim)?

US Military interservice rivalry. : little_details
http://little-details.livejournal.com/3483172.html
US Military interservice rivalry. I'm writing a fic and I need some dialouge for a scene. It is present day NY. Characters in question would have served in Iraq and/or Afgahnastan. My research was a google search "interservice rivalries". I looked at the Wikipedia page and the TV Tropes Page. None were really helpful. Character A was a Marine Officer and specifically did two tours in Fallujah. In cannon he was an NYPD detective before and after. Thanks in advance for any help. Post a new comment.

Friends-Only - JK's Journal v.22.0.1: Atlantis Rising
http://ashavah.livejournal.com/376131.html
JKs Journal v.22.0.1: Atlantis Rising. Twenty-something librarian and student hailing from the Great South Land. Potterholic, Whovian, Browncoat, classicist, historian, roleplayer, moderator, reader, writer, musician, and generalised nerd. To be ignorant of what occurred before you were born is to remain always a child. For what is the worth of human life, unless it is woven into the life of our ancestors by the records of history? Like all good things, a good book is all the better if it is a long one.

First Lines - A Time for Tea and Books
http://parelle.livejournal.com/171360.html
A Time for Tea and Books. And other sheltered nooks. March 8th, 2008. Now, instead of working.to continue with the first-line memes, here are some classic first-lines. I've tried to avoid ones which 'give it away' - so no, there is no Pride and Prejudice here! As a hint, these are all books I read while growing up (though they aren't all child's lit) and all of them can be found on Gutenberg (so if you haven't read them, why not? There was no possibility of taking a walk that day. We had been wanderi...
