a willing foe, and sea room

[communi_kate]

 Back from holiday and ready to dive back into work and fandom. I love the internet (seriously, what did we do without it) but it's great to have a couple of weeks lived solely in real life.

My fic Resurgam (Batman Begins) has been translated into Russian by Riddle_TM at AO3. If you speak Russian, go read it over here.

I've signed up for the remix_11 AO3 challenge-though not without some problems. Eligibility for a fandom is determined by five stories of 500 words or over or seven stories of 100 words or over in a list of prespecified fandoms. (sadly not including Mass Effect, Assassin's Creed or Final Fantasy) This excluded a good portion of my fic (seriously , how can only ONE of my three sentence stories be over 100 words) but I just scraped in with Dragon Age, a fandom for which I have written six stories, including two big bangs of over 25,000 words. I can only apologise to my recipient. Signups close today over here 

Games: still pirating with AC4

Books: just finished MK Hobson's Native Star series (would highly recommend) and I'm looking forwards to reading Max Gladstone's Three Parts Dead about which I've heard great things.

News: Looks like the new AC game is set in the French Revolution. Time to reread Dylan Meconis' webcomic Bite Me!

There has been rumors about a french rev. since what, freaking Revelations? So I guess I'm not too surprised. Man, when are they going to get of White ppl places tho? Set one in China, dang.

Not exactly a surprise. China or Japan would be awesome-and surely it's time to have a wholly non-white protagonist? To be honest, it's the historical re-creation aspect that keeps me coming back for more in these games-even though I know it's not wholly accurate, it's still cool to perch on a tower and look out over a bustling medieval Jerusalem.

Ikr? I get just the most amazing deja vu looking at pictures of Venice.

I went to Venice once, with my sister, when we were eighteen, and when I was playing Revelations she Photoshopped a picture of us by the pillars in St Mark's square with a cartoon Ezio jumping across.
'You could climb up that' has since become a standard travel comment.
