After that wonderful Hogwarts AU for Milliways and Mixed Muses characters that Debi and I thought up and Debi ran in mixed_muses last weekend, for over a thousand tags?

There is proposed permanence or at least continuation, worked out by innerbrat, Grey, Kippur, July and me.

If you enjoyed it, reblog and pass it on! If you're not in Milliways, you're of course welcome as well. I don't know how long it'll last, but it was tremendous fun last weekend...



**considers apping a Wizarding World version of Andras, too**

randomhaze found a video she'd taken when she was here two years ago, of Mephi attacking the washing machine.

So of course I put it up to show to everybody!

carolinw pointed me to the '7 Vices Of Highly Creative People'

*vehemently and virtuously stamps on all impulses to want to RP at Morningstar Manor*

*consoles self* After all, asar_suti just got involved in another plot; there is enough to do in Milliways as it is.

Today, I got to get drunk with Jack Sparrow. Sort of. What an honour...

I must be careful not to be in milliways_bar too much, but like this, about once every two weeks,  I can handle the speed-on-crack aspect without becoming addicted.

I hope.

I was unhappy about the Oscars. I wanted Jack Sparrow to win, dammit!

But I had a pleasant surprise when the Best Actress trophy was presented - suddenly, there was Otto Chriek on my TV screen! As in ottochriek !!

It's customary to use some actor on the character icons on discworld_rpg, but I had no idea before who that charming gawky fellow on the icon for Otto was.

Turned out he's called Adrien Brody.

And is he ever Otto!! Tall and skinny, with a large nose and a big smile, slightly hyper and ever so enthusiastic. And that thing with the breath freshener was priceless. Our icons fit the characters rather well in most cases, but this Adrien Brody is Otto all the way; nobody else must be allowed to play Otto if there is ever any Discworld movie, which isn't very likely at the moment. I'd cast Alan Rickman as Havelock Vetinari (the Nazgul has a picture where he looks totally like the Patrician, minus a beard); otherwise, I have no preferences. Thank you, universe; you can go to work now and bring it all about...

In other news, I have figmented off again and am now playing pteppicymon as well in the discworld_rpg. I must be mad; now I can metapost all over the place if I get muddled. Vee (ponderstibbons) kindly explained to me what metaposting is.-

I bought the DVD of "The Thin Red Line" entirely because it has Adrien Brody in it and I want to see more of him; "The Pianist" is still too expensive. I'll see whether Falk the Metropolitan has it first. And I bought a CD everyone owns, as a rule, but I had given my copy away seven years ago. I didn't realise how much I missed Kurt Cobain singing "Lake of Fire"...
