I cried at work today. Seriously.

Remember my obsession with the BDB? Well, today I paid a visit to their online forum. For once, it wasn't really because of them. I was looking for info on JR Ward's new Fallen Angel series. And, of course, I eventually ended up on the Brother's forum. And in a thread detailing their activity on the board.

No idea who told me to do THAT.

I've read the account of Phury and Cormia's mating ceremony before, in the BDB guide. But reading it again- With all of the Cellies' comments in between for the whole thing? Seeing their speculation on who would carve the letters of Cormia's name- and their pure joy and pain when Tohr appered to do the last letter? The brother who at the time they thought was dead. The one who just lost his wife and unborn baby.

Finding out that baby was a little boy.

Oh yeah. Those tears came HARD.And they were already flowing from the sheer beauty and joy of the ceremony. Lord, I'm still such a mess. *wipes away tears* *gives in to the silly grin that's been lingering all day*

And then I found out that contrary to what I believed, I HADN'T read all the threads about my boys' appearances on the forums. Here's the listing I found that includes some I've never come across: [link]

In one of the undiscovered ones I found today, Rhage makes another "confession" on behalf of his brother, V.

Oh, yeah Leona. I hear the "uh oh" that just went through your head. And yes, this one was almost as bad as the "confession" of Z and his love of knitting.Rhage claims that he also has a desire to be the pin-up boy for the BDB. Rhage, you fool. He's so lucky he got out of that one with BOTH eyebrows intact.


Finally, a few minutes ago, I found out the most stunning fact about the brother who had my heart from the beginning- Zsadist.

He plays the guitar.

Check it out. It's just.. ... so... Oh crap. I'm crying again.

Oh. Just realised you have to be a member of the forums to see the posts. Ah, well. Membership is free- and involves no spammage of your inbox. Wait a sec.. besides the confirmation of my membership,I don't think I've ever gotten any mail from there... hmm..

Anyway: he sits in the library, and plays this song. His wife stands in the doorway when the sound floats down to her from where she is elsewhere in the mansion; his twin stands at the bottom of the staircase, listening.

What song? [link]

And let me say this: the song suits the situation perfectly. After all, he's just found out that he's gonna be a daddy.

The ruined one... has the voice of an angel...

In NaNoWriMo news, huge thanks to ~tannally! My plot was nonexistent. Then it alowed me to glimpse it...

..As it hopped on a plane to Scotland.

But thanks to her suggestion to just take a break, it seems that it grew jealous and came home! You're not going anywhere again, plot. *glares at plot that is now chained to her computer*
I have some serious typing to do to catch up in my word count. So it's back to work for me!

No more flu.

No more sick leave.

No more hanging out in #NaNoWriMo all day. Stupid work computer...

Congrats to all my fellow deviants out there who're getting the chance to try out the Journal skins feature! I've suddenly had my inbox overflowing with faves because of it- along with requests for an Iroh journal. Can't seem to find the right artwork for that one, though.

And finally... Rose, you know I couldn't finish this off without talking about what an AWESOME person you are! Because of a range of reasons, my subby was running out this week. And I've had no time to arrange for it to be renewed- nor would I have the time to do so anytime soon. (no credit card. Little things are waay too much temptation to someone like me, who has so little impulse control)

So I was so shocked to get an email from dA, saying that =paintedbluerose had gifted me a 3-month extension on my subby!

Rose- name it and it's yours. A million thank-yous for this, girl. I.. I just don't know what else to say.
