    Be still, sad heart! and cease repining; Behind the clouds is the sun still shining.

    You probably know how this sort of thing goes. There you are, mowing your grass on a day that can't decide whether to shine or drizzle on you, a few years and counting into your non-writing streak. Whatever thoughts you're having are at the expense of your lawnmower picking a fight with every passing tuffet and losing.

    On Brains

    A nice breezy dialogue to ease in with:

    CARABAS’ COMMON SENSE: So, a hypothetical conservation for you.
    CARABAS: Two lines in and we’ve already got fictional discourse nested in the initial fictional discourse. Gosh, I must just love to live dangerously.

Status of The Tempest · 1:52am Apr 20th, 2015

It's been a couple of weeks since The Tempest got its last chapter. Cack-handedly slow though I can be at times, it wouldn't normally take me this long to produce the next chapter. Fear not (recklessly assuming you were fearing at any point); there is a third chapter underway, a good chunk of it has been completed, and what hasn't been is plotted-out. Subsequent chapters will follow, and be as sensible and civilised as you can expect.

Unfortunately, the chapter's also obliged to share some of my feeble cognition with upcoming exams. Three, one after the other, next Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.

Emoticons like :twilightoops: with an essence of :raritydespair: seem apt at this point.

After all that, if I emerge more-or-less intact with something resembling the ability to still experience positive emotions, The Tempest will get back on track. Pinkie promise and a'.

Handy talent, that. The most I can personally manage is constant obliviousness.

Ugh. You've got exams, I've got the second Avengers movie. Those bastards in the UK are getting the movie a week early! :flutterrage: And we're literally stocked to the ceiling with cups, straws, bags of seed, syrup Bags-in-Boxes and all the other good things with which one needs to run a profitable cinema. We weren't even this well-stocked at Christmas! The closest I can come to describing what our back area looks like is if a bunch of nerds decided to try their hands at doomsday prepping.

And now, for your spoilerific enjoyment, I present to you, OMFG IT'S SO AWESOME! AGE OF ULTRON IS GOING TO BE SO GOOD!

Ooh. Now there's a post-exam reward that had managed to slip my mind.

Went to see the first one in my first year of uni. A good book-end to see the next one in my last. :pinkiehappy:

I came back to this blog post just so I could watch those trailers again. So . . . good. :pinkiesad2:
