Got bored of 16th-century alchemists for my dissertation, fucked around with Wordl instead. This is the word cloud for the first 148,000 words of Eir's Tomorrow, ahaha.

I can't wait until the fic's done. Seriously, and it doesn't help that I've always been a very, very slow writer and easily distracted by other things.
Aww. :'D
Ahaha, well, I think it is, since I've chosen alchemy as the basis of my dissertation. Long story short, it's about using alchemy to encourage the dialogue between science and modern religion/spirituality.
You know, I'm probably mad, but I'd love to read your dissertation ;p It sounds really interesting and "different", if you know what I mean. The parallels between the three subjects and how alchemy could be a link is an intriguing topic.
About you being a slow writer, it's not really that bad, because you do update more or less regularly, so I don't worry about never knowing the end. Especially as your chapters are really long, it always makes my day! ^^
(and no, I really don't want it to end, I going to be so depressed T_T Your story makes me look forward to the next day/week/month until you'll update, and I always feel like shit when epic stories as yours get to the end)
Ha, my program director was like, "...I can honestly say I don't think anyone at this university has written on that topic." And it won the approval of the stereotypically English New Age professor, even if I was sitting on the table during my presentation and unthinkingly did a little dance at some point. Depending on how coherent it actually turns out, I hope I can share it. :D Oh god it's due in August aaaaah ~
If it helps, I'll probably keep writing side stories/timestamps? And I may have done some of my own art for it that will never ever see the light of day. Funny you should mention the length, I'm proofreading an interlude-y type thing as we chat that's only 1,400 words. I'M SORRY, IT'S ALL I'VE MANAGED TO COMPLETE.
The little dance on the tabletop? Priceless xD I'd loved to see that ;p (and the prof must have been like: O.o XDDD )
I'm crossing my fingers for you 'till August ^^ I'm sure you'll do fine!
One-shot sequels? A resounding YES!! ^___^ I won't ever say no to new glimpses in your Cloud's life. And don't worry about the 2k interlude, it will be like an appetizer ;p
Btw, you doomed me! You know by now that I love reading your stories, and since you kept posting Supernatural fics, I HAD TO watch the show T_T I spent all January and February catching up with the six seasons, just so I could read your fics ;p I already knew that I would like the show, but I didn't want to get caught up in another fandom, it's all you fault! I resisted for years and you just had to post an umpteenth ficlet and hop! I lost the fight ;p
(On a side note, I have Henri Mancini playing right now, and I'm grinning really hard, you know, the starry eyes kind. Gaia, I love his music).
I DON'T KNOW, OKAY, EXCEPT THAT FROM WHAT I'VE BEEN TOLD (I don't do anything in this fandom except pop out fic, haven't read others' fic for it for like three years now and so I rely on artimusdin for news) IT SEEMS TO HAVE BECOME RELATIVELY WELL KNOWN AND IT MAKES ME NERVOUS AND LIKE "OH GOD WHAT IF I DISAPPOINT PEOPLE."
Which isn't anything I haven't said before, I don't think, but it's one of those insecurities that comes with putting things out in the public domain and all, so whatever. Ignore my flailing.
Your flailing is adorable. because you are super awesome and anyone who enjoys Cloud/Seph usually has you on their must stalk list. The only way I will ever judge you if you kill Cloud and everyone in a fit because you don't want to finish your story. Without warning me.
Deathfics might make me throw temper tantrums if I am not warned about it. I am very attached to my lovelies and want to know what I am getting into before I watch them all drop like flies and become a giant yelling snot monster. It is very unattractive.
You are awesome and I use your fic skills to judge other stories because I love Eir's Tomorrow so much. It is an Epic in my mind. Not just because of the length either :B

This is hilarious and I enjoy this immensely.
NOW IT IS TIME TO DO NOTHING ELSE BUT GET CAUGHT UP ON EIR'S TOMORROW! \O/
