It seems like summer comes along and my fandomy self gets all wrapped up in other things. But, all those things seem to mostly be going in the right direction. For now.

Why didn't anyone tell me what an awesome game Oblivion is before now? It's making me hot for the Fallout 3 previews even more than before, and I thought that wouldn't be possible. I know three people who play it, too, and we've all had completely different experiences, gone on almost completely different quests, and gone to different places on the map. I've even fought completely different monsters than the others have and use different weapons because I'm an excellent shot and can get away with the bow. It doesn't take a big honkin' sword and leveled strength to do a lot of damage and show a troll with absurd regen who's boss. Good times.

Anyway, the state of DC right now has my panties in a twist. Fucking with the Flash book again because of dropping sales, Jor-El and Thomas Wayne having a heart-to-heart, J'onn still being dead, the New Gods still being dead or existing in a less-than-godlike form, etc, etc. I'm hiding out in my fanfic AUs and going into Wednesdays with a grain of salt so I can enjoy some of it.

You know what's great, though? Back-issues. I always mostly live there, and now more than ever. And what else is great? Batman sneaking into people's bedrooms while they're naked.





The slash is strong with that one. From Green Lantern #103; Kyle's run is a barrel of laughs, except when it's not.

No, seriously though. Hope things are okay. :)

You know where I've been. ::winkwink::

Things are good. Probably. But I think so now, yes.

Yeah, it's gotten me so into it; I won't be able to play for a while, which makes me sad. I just made Level 18 and have been hanging out around Anvil, on the coast. I have shoes of Waterwalking I got off some conjuror so I can use ranged attacks from the ocean to my advantage if I want to; watching things try to get me is a laugh. Especially wolves.

I just hit a spot where it got really hard because I wasn't raising my Agility enough to put the extra boost to my bow, though. Still, running backwards helps.

The thieves guild quest? xD If you aim a little above where you want to shoot, you should be able to hit it no matter what your level.

I'm like level, thirty something, but this is my second game. have you got the game of the year edition? Because the shivering Isles is fucking FANTASTIC. It made me laugh so hard.

I spend ages just working up specific skills, y'know? Because I like jumping off of high things. :B

I haven't done that quest yet; I might, when I get to it... right now, skeletons and conjurors, mostly.

Ooh, that's one of the expansions, right? I'll have to look into that. I think they can be bought right off XBox Live... which would be cool.

XD yeah, I got the two expansions in the bundle that I got with the ps3.

skeletons make me SAD. I just go up and hack them with my sword, but I've got my sneak right up so they rarely ever see me coming. :B I've amused myself by becoming the head of all the guilds.

Ugh, I know!

I don't even like to think about it, really. I got really attached to them.

Maybe they want Wally the angstfest back again for their twisted plans. No matter what they have to do to get it.

It's so. SO. SO SO poorly done, too. I wouldn't -- it wouldn't be SO BAD if they at least attempted to make it look like they were trying but it's so obviously just last minute, no effort, wtvs.

AUGH!!!

Batman has always been and always will be a stalker. They should do one where he goes into Wally's room... half naked~
