2/5 Discussion Thread VIII

Re: Nella's post
Whooooaaa.

@amos
Kewl avatar. And when you say the lyrics are from 'Crazy For You' do you mean the musical? Because that'd just be plain freaky since I'm performing in it next March...

Re: Driving
Pffft. I haven't started driving yet. I plan to one day, but for now it's so much easier (and cheaper!) to just take the bus. It would be handy to be able to drive, but I definitely don't plan on getting a car of my own any time soon. Somehow I doubt my university grant combined with money from a part time job would cover all the expenses.

EDIT: Whoo! New page ;D

@dearest Sweetheart

Even though we know you're wrestling with Collegius venomous migranius, we miss you lots. How 'bout a tiny post?

@re: The Professor's Mysterious Disappearance
I brought that up with Amos and my chat last night hahah. I'm really curious as to why he's not leaving ah, a few traces in here. In our own language, we'd say... Magparamdam ka naman... (dunno the direct translation, but it roughly means "why won't you make your presence felt in here?" in a ghastly way.)
;D

@re: Amos' Avatar
Whoops. I saw that one last night in our chat Amos, but I forgot to comment on it! D'oh! Sorry for forgetting... *needs a real whack on the head to reestablish brain-to-reality conncection*
We need more Lizzie-love icons. *thinks about getting one soon*

@re: Berty Bott's Every-Flavor Beans
My classmate brought a whole bag last year. I didn't bother asking one the minute I saw their grimaces and soury expressions. XD I even recall one saying "It tastes like what it's suppose to come out, 'anti-peristalstistically(?)". I'll just stick to ah, normal tasting jellybeans, thanks. ^^;

@re: Driving
My dad actually encourages me to learn. On a weekly schedule. XD He always says that by the time I'm 16, I must know how to drive already... which is approximately 7 months from now. Well, that's two years early for a license, though. ^^; I'll just stick to a bike.


And I have to go now for tomorrow's an early day for Intrams! Wish me luck on our chess games.

[Numbuh Googol]

Okay. Good luck in the chess games! ;D

Hmm... I hope the Professor shows up soon - I think we're overdue for one of his campfire stories.

[6issocool]

hi, im back
so whats up

[Numbuh 0xFF]

*A shimmering coruscating portal opens up, Numbuh 0xFF emerges clad in a mechanised exoskeleton complete with a pressure suit and a whole host of weaponry. Currently he is fighting with a horrendous creature all black spikes, undulating tentacles and burning red eyes.*

FF: Arrgh! Die! Die! DIE!
Creature: *blood curdling roar of incomprehensible fury*
Madame: Uh...hello.
FF: Hi...have at thee!
Amos: Been busy have you?
FF: Only slightly...you know how it is. DARK FIRE WILL NOT AVAIL YOU FLAME OF UDUN!
Klarys: Sure...sure...so...what's that, ah, thing?
FF: My Impulse Electronics & Semiconductor Physics professor. YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
Madame: Is that so?
FF: Well, in her TRUE form, yes. THERE CAN BE ONLY 4*10²³e^-/mol in Si!!
Amos: So...how's, eh, life?
FF: Oh, can't complain. You know, the odd battle to the death, unimaginable torutres. Pain. Suffering. Torment. What can I say...college. TODAY IS A GOOD DAY TO DIE!!! Perish, you PetaQ!!
Madame: We, uh, missed you.
FF: So did Ak'Zael The Burning Scourge Of Infinite Worlds, Extinguisher of Hope and Dark Overlord Of The 999th level of the Infinite Abyss...good thing to, that hellfire packs a punch. BLOOD AND FURY!
Amos: Ak'Zael--whatsits...why did you mess with someone like that?
FF: Well she teaches Complex and Multivariable Calculus to me, of course. Diediediediediedie!
Klarys: Ah. I see.
FF: Well, if you'll excuse me, I have to run. I have to see a demon about a midterm. Ta!

[digigirl02]

Nice to see you back FF. but still can't understand half of what you said, but still nice to see you back.

[Cap'n Veg]

Yay! FF spoke math! He's back!

Now I gotta figure out what the hell you were saying ;D

@the flavors of every flavor beans-

Well, I know what vomit tastes like already(everybody should, unless you have the greatest immune system in the world) , I don't need to willingly consume something that tastes like it.

I also know from experience what earwax tastes like.... hey man, I was a little kid, and I was trying things out...

[Nella (Numbuh 310)]

@0xff
You're back! And crazier than ever!

@new topic

They smiled, they laughed, they talked, but their always seemed to be just a little something that they kept all to themselves.
From here.

In my opinion, this is the ideal 2/5 dynamic.
Sure, 2/5 is the "fun ship" and I've stated that on countless occasions. But gabbie and I had an interesting convo last night, voicing opinions I don't think we've publicly shared before. Here's an excerpt:

gabbie: That is so sadmazing
nella: sadmazing
nella: that's it exactly
nella: 2/5...there needs to be something...something in 2/5 that's sadmazing
gabbie: Yes. Oh god.
nella: i can't quite put my finger on the word. nostalgia? longing? reminiscing? regret? idealism?
gabbie: Maybe like...I don't know...like...
nella: english language, you fail me
gabbie: *thinks* god...
nella: you know what I mean, though!
gabbie: Yeah!
nella: yesss
gabbie: But they don't want to feed off of each other so they keep their distance
nella: BINGO
nella: well, that's part of it? XD
gabbie: XD yeah...or...SOMETHING.

Discuss.

[KCG, M.D.]

HE SPOKE MATH! HE SPOKE MATH! YESH!

;D

edit: OMG NELLA. There has ALWAYS been that... SOMETHING... i dont know WHAT it is! It's just... THERE!

Oh GOD what the heck is it?!

[dex]

... I have a song stuck in my head XP
It sorta reminds me of 2/5. And gives me a picture of those two sitting on a couch, laughing. And no, Hoagie didn't tell a joke.
It's this one:

I have no idea why, though. *ponders*

These sentences are everything the ship should be.

Sometimes, Abby’s husband would ask her what she was reminiscing about when she looked into space like that; she would always say “nothing”: she couldn’t very well tell him about a boy in goggles she was sure wasn’t real.

Sadmazing.

Wow. So true. Everything from there was written so beautifully!

[digigirl02]

I agree.
#37 – Lies

“I love Cree, Abby.”

[KCG, M.D.]

I kinda found a way to illustrate the THING... thats just THERE... and not really EXPLAINABLE... it's kinda long but bear with me.


Running through the mass of people, the two young teens poked and giggled while trying to get the other one to crack first. A jab in the side, a flick on the arm, whatever it took to get the other one to lose the bet. Finally they were out of the multitude and could increase their velocity, running from one side of the sidewalk to another, jumping and tackling each other as if there were no one else in the world. Finally he had caught her from behind, about to tickle her to submission, when a rouge twig got in their way. They plunged to the ground, screaming in an almost-but-not-quite frightened way. Laughing, they finally opened their eyes, and realized how they had landed. Her, flat on her back with her arms pinned to her side. Him, on his knees, right on top of her, doing the pinning.

How it would happen in other ships:
They just lay there, staring into each others eyes, each one feeling that they could read the others soul in just that moment. They were there for a moment or a lifetime, they couldn’t tell, all they could see was the fact that they were so near each other that they could feel the others breath on their face. Her breath smelled like bubblegum, while his smelled like a grape bubblegum-pop. Suddenly, they each longed to know how those would taste together. Still looking into each others eyes, he slowly lowered his face while she slowly brought hers up. Their lips met and all of the tension they had felt before was gone. All there was in the world was just him and her, and the odd taste of Bubble-grape pops.

How it would happen in ours:
They lay there for a fraction of a second before they both started laughing again. She wriggled around, trying to get free, while he just held her down tighter.
“Let go of me you nerd!” she yelled, trying to kick her legs only to discover that they were pinned as well.
“As if!” he giggle-said, somehow managing to pin her down and tickler at the same time. “Beg!” he said again, still tickling her, but she wouldn’t relent. “Come on, give in! You can’t wi-“ He had forgotten to keep her legs down. “That…” he gasped, rolling off of her and holding his stomach, “Was not even fair.”
She stood up, adjusting her hat and smirking in that way that she does.
“So…” she said, looking down and smiling, “Do I win, or what?” Still on the ground, he reached into his pocket.
“Fine… Fine… 20 bucks… it’s yours…” He handed it to her with a mixture of pain and defeat. As he gave it to her he realized… he could have given thousands and still be rich.



Okay really corny last line but hey! It's Hoagie! Whaddya expect?

[digigirl02]

Me likey.
