November

So it's almost Halloween. That's cool. Trick-or-treating and all that. The costumes are almost sorta ready. Well, the kids' costumes anyway. I am going as Little Red Riding Hood. My cloak is totally awesome. I also got a bit inspired by my costume and accidentally started to design a fantasy universe based on Little Red Riding Hood, where Red is the Huntsman. And seeing as it started with my Halloween costume design picture, she looks kinda like me, which then led to me basing a lot of other characters on all my lovely friends. Oops.

So now Red and her little brother are continuing the family business of hunting Werewolves (and other miscellaneous thing that go bump in the dark), and their two sisters are a semi-famous chronicler/writer/idk and the head seamstress of Tanoppiola. That's right, if you don't use it, I will. The other characters also include a lovely bar owner, a badass black smith/inventor, a traveling singer who has settled in the town and I don't yet know what the fuck Tiinu is. Sorry. A scholar? Ooh, maybe a medical woman. All the important people in this story are women. Except the wolf. Well, all the important people in the society of this story are women. The wolf is a farmer's boy, who is fairly poor and kind of a friend of Red & co.'s. And as I said, they hunt werewolves, so they don't know that he's a wolf in the beginning. Then I also thought that the typical plotline would be that Wolf and Red fall in love and then drama~ but meh. Do you want him? You can totally have him.

Oh, and the Hunter's cloaks are red because werewolves are drawn to red and so it'll be hunters they attack and the hunters will be ready. Sounds legit, eh?

Speaking of November, my birthday's coming up. Yay. And so (just as an FYI) I would like for my birthday: Supernatural season 8 DVD box (which you can keep in Finland, I can't really watch it here anyway), a new drawing tablet (my pen is broken...), Assassin's Creed IV (when it comes out), the ability to finish my projects, a fitting bra, a great idea for the ending of Mathia, money for i-don't-know-yet-but-i'll-figure-it-out, a plan for my future and two bars of each Fazer chocolate there is (hint: there are 15 of them). That's all. I think. Thanks.

Other things November is, is NaNoWriMo, which I thought about participating. Although I haven't really read the rules and apparently you're supposed to update your progress to some website? I don't know, I haven't actually done any research. But anyway, I now have a challenge for you! Let's write a novel (or short story, boo you lazy ass) November! I think I'd actually want to write Mathia to at least halfway point, because that's how far I've planned it. And you must write too. But I wouldn't write Nocturne, seeing as it's been such a long process, you probably don't want to rush that. So have a new topic! "30 days of November"~ Totally original.

In conclusion: the goal for NaNoWriMo is to write 50,000 words in 30 days, but I say our goal is to write a story of any length (but at least over like 1000 words, ok?) which has a plot and at least three characters. About anything, of any genre, of any rating, with any characters (as long as there's at least three). And you don't have to have three main characters, but in that case have supporting characters. If you want to write a love story or something, then the third character can be the best friend of either one's, to whom they tell all about their life. It becomes a character when it can talk/communicate in someway back and has more than a few lines that aren't "And what can I get you?". OK? OK.

I should really read that book, the movie's coming out in June...

So I guess that's all from me now. NO WAIT.

And now to the Supernatural part of my blogging. NOTE: if you don't care/want to avoid spoilers, skip ahead. There might be something at the end.

There has been so much wank after the last episode, it's ridiculous. People complain about:

• reapers getting killed with angel swords (which, in fact, has happened before) and reapers "suddenly" becoming angels, which I don't think they did? When was this said? I mean, sure Death is sometimes referred to as "the Angel of Death" (though not in SPN itself) but who said reapers are angels? And even if they are, most things we learn about monsters etc are, gasp, new and it's not really a continuity error, so who cares if they are angels.
• Cas being out of character somehow. I don't know how, I think he was pretty much himself. And if you've spent the past forever being an angel and suddenly became human, you wouldn't be the same person anymore. There's a million new things you feel and a million new things to worry about and yeah, you're not invincible anymore, you're flawed and fragile and broken. You try staying the same. Besides, all the key points stayed: he's still socially awkward, comically honest about angel stuff and fiercely loving humanity.
• Cas being in the intellectual level of a three year old when it came to being human, which he actually wasn't. I mean, he did pretty damn well for someone who's never before had to worry about food or shelter or money or urinating. If I understood correctly, the main concern to people seemed to be the toothpaste scene, but I don't think that was such a big deal. I mean, if you don't have a toothbrush that is how you do it. You take a lot of toothpaste and then kinda rub it against your teeth with your tongue and spit it out. I'm not entirely sure if he had a toothbrush, because I've watched that scene many times and first he didn't have one, but when he went into the stall I think he might've had one, soooo? Although I have no idea what he was going to do with it there, 'cause he left the toothpaste and other things on the table...
• Cas doing it with someone he just met, Cas doing it with a girl and generally about Cas doing it. I'm gonna pause here, because people say it would be out of character for Cas to have sex with someone he didn't know well and love and all that, but really? When you as a teenager first discover these urges, do you not want to do it with anyone who let's you? And April clearly gave him the green light and she was pretty darn cute, so why wouldn't have Cas done it. Virginity and it's preciousness is completely a made up social concept, created by men to keep women in control (true story). Why would Cas give a rat's ass about it? He is (was) an angel, he's not bound by puny social expectations (as proved by his social behaviour). Virginity is not a part of Castiel's culture and besides this might have not even been his first time! I mean, he was married for a year for fuck's sake! Are you implying that he and what's-her-face never consummated their marriage? Yeah right. And while this issue is not brought up, it is canonically stated, by Cas himself, that he has at least theoretical knowledge of how to pleasure a woman. Rah. Cas is no less "pure" and the first time with someone special any less meaningful even if he's had sex with someone before it. Now shut your face.
• Cas being confirmed canonically straight- WHAT? I mean. If you're gonna complain about that, you're a tad late, what with Megstiel being canon and Cas being married as Emmanuel. And besides, Cas is (was) an angel. They don't really have genders, do they? (Case in point: Raphael. Oh and Castiel himself, when he possessed Claire and almost discarded Jimmy.) And even if Cas identifies as a male and is attracted to a woman, so what? You're not either gay or straight. Cas is as canonically pansexual as one can be without outright saying "Hi guys, I'm pan!" or being Captain Jack Harkness. I mean, he said "I am utterly indifferent to sexual orientation." His words. So yeah.
• Zeke. Oh Zeke. I don't get why people complain about this, it was pretty obvious that Cas wouldn't be able to stay in the bunker. That's not how this show works. And there's no way the idea would come from Dean himself, or from Sam for that matter. It had to come from an outside source. And it was necessary for the plot. Sorry Cas. But it's not like Dean broke up with him or something. They can (and probably will) stay in touch. The thing is, Cas can't stay in the bunker, because his presence will... alert the angels? I guess. I'm not sure. The point is, there is no way in hell, Dean Winchester will let Cas walk out the door without a) money/credit card b) a duffel bag full of clothes c) a cellphone d) some sammiches to go <3<333<3 But seriously, Cas won't be just tossed out to survive on his own. He will get some supplies and an order to call if something, anything, comes up, you hear me man. Call whenever. We can always drive there to help. So it's a whole lot better than it was.

And I'm not going to even start on the twitter drama, mostly because I think it was stupid. The guy was a guest director, has no say whatsoever in the plot and was way out of line to say anything about the matter anyway. And seeing that I'm not actually on twitter, I'm not a hundred percent sure what even happened, so I'll just not.
tl;dr: A lot of wank.

On a more positive note: Charlieeee~~~~ Yeah, so next Tuesday is Slumber Party and Charlie will be back and I will be happy. Yay.

This concludes the Supernatural part of this blog. Thank you for your patience.

So that got a bit long. Oops. Hey, it's still Friday, yay. I was sure I would be writing this for so long it would be past midnight when I actually posted this. I wrote this thing for almost two hours, wow. But now I think that's all. Bye~

 Pie out.
