"I feel you, dude. That stuff tastes like crap."
This just made me the happiest girl in the world for the past few days. And apparently this is CarbonCopyshipping, rather than Spiffyshipping as I originally pegged it, since that seems to only apply to Specialverse Silver. CarbonCopy is at least a much more suitable name in this situation. XD

Speaking of ship names, the neverending list of ship names for Pokemon got updated yesterday. I finally went ahead and decided to name some of my own for the first time, and they all went through clear as a while! They're officially on the list. So I actually coined:

LameBrainshipping: Barry x Conway. They're going to interact a lot in Trifecta (whenever Barry actually appears); had this in mind for ages, then decided to name it early since the "lamebrain" term was used in a line during the dub of the first Iron Island episode, if I'm not mistaken... and it's very interchangeable. Barry IS a lamebrain, Conway is lame since he's a nerd but also very brainy because of that.

DPGSshipping: Ash x Paul x Gold x Silver. Mainly based on the antics going on in both dear_mun and pokedressing. It's obviously short for DiamondPearlGoldSilver, so the four boys are representing the games in that order, even if Ash and Paul aren't from the games. Paul's dub name's at least BASED off Pearl, and Ash went ahead and decided to look like Lucas for this series anyway.

RnBshipping: Roark x Reggie. Because they're childhood friends in Trifecta and I'm kinda surprised no one named this yet, considering the other wacky nevermets that've gotten named. RnB, outside of being a music genre, is mainly Trifecta-based as well. Roark and Reggie have names that begin with R, and their dads' names both begin with B (Brandon and Byron). Thus, R and B!

Trifectashipping: Brandon x Byron x Palmer. In which I become a huge fucking egomaniac. Obviously named after the fic and the fact that in said fic, these three are childhood friends that stood the test of time. They'll be getting flashback segments of their childhood later on in the story.

Shatteredshipping: Paul x Soul (HGSS Girl). I actually didn't name this, but I was involved in the naming process, and it's specifically because of my Paul that the pairing was named this way. In the DR, Soul accidentally bumped into Paul and this eventually resulted in Paul's usual stream of insults that made Soul cry and run off. She later tore up a bit of her guidebook afterwards because of what he said as well. ♥ I suppose he came close to "shattering" her dreams. :')


Aaaaand... it's July. How is Trifecta 9 doing?

... 7,244 words!!

Yeah, amazing, right? I estimated to have this fic done before July, but it's still not even close. Mainly, I do blame the RP, but this isn't entirely a bad thing. Being technically behind my schedule means I won't have to pace myself before the dub of DP118 comes out. So that makes it easier on me. I'm also largely RPing with Paul, meaning that muse stays sharp as a knife, meaning the writing quality won't suffer. I still know what's all gonna go down, so it's just a matter of getting my head in the game.

It's good I got my ritalin dosage upped and I can get it today. The current dosage I was on really was wearing off, as I'm becoming distracted by music and background noises again. So I'm reverting back to my inattentive self. Hopefully this'll change soon with the higher dosage.

Also, Total Drama Action is back with new episodes in Canada! So it's double-duty in that department and I should start actually doing things on TDW again. You'd think they'd give me a holler on my Talk page if they really needed me (since I do get email alerts for them). I've made that clear, so if they don't contact me, I figure I'm not needed~! I was getting a little burned out, so a break is nice to have. I've been working off-and-on TDW since what, December?

Of course I'll still be watching the episodes and loving them. I may even go out of my way to continue providing the high-quality screencaps for the new material since I'm pretty much the best source to go to beyond the official sources themselves (and they're finally giving out some of their official art). I'm just really tired of having to re-space pages out over and over again because some users can't seem to understand the concept of aesthetic appeal and how CRAPPY pages look when the seconds are disjointed and pictures are overlapping the fucking text.

That's really the worst part of it outside of the vandalism. But it's cool, it's cool.

Courtney is officially back, the elimination is quite surprising and I think LeShawna's getting a little bit of foreshadowing. I think the Killer Grips have won a grand total of one time since the teams were formed, anyway. Uber Courtney is probably going to destroy them.

I'll be keeping an eye on our US TDA since it seems they ARE still editing the dialog (Alien Resur-eggtion got one edited line), and that means Beach Blanket Bogus is definitely going to get some edited dialog since crap/sucking are quite present in that episode. It's a shame. I was hoping since 6teen's gone by almost completely unedited that CN would leave TDA as-is, but I guess that's not the case.

Anime-wise, seems we're getting a bit of a break on the plot in D/P, though I've got my eye out on that upcoming Galactic episode that'll be airing just before Movie 12 is released. I'm sure I won't be done with Chapter 10 by then, so all will be well.

I've even doodled a bit, but that's backburner stuff because huminahuminahumina things are going LIKE CRAZY these days! Even finally got to enjoy the pool this week... to a degree (it was windy so Shin was freezing ♥;). Hopefully more nasty weather will be back so I can enjoy the pool better.

also whyyyyyyyyyyyy whyyyyyyyyyy was Shelton Benjamin put back on ECW?! Why do they hate me so?! That means I'll actually have to WATCH ECW again if I want to see him! Goddammit!!

Oh yeah. And jobs. I shouldn't keep forgetting that I don't have one. Derp. Okay I'm done.
