In which Lal takes requests and has a Zombie Boyfriend (onlynotreally)

Requests at the end, first, DELIGHT!

I am delighted, yet again, because my tee shirt came! You can buy them at Shop Marmalade!  It's much greener than it looks in the picture. It's uber soft as well, you know how tees shirts get after you've had them a little while, only this came like that.

Here is a picture of me being a total poser in it.



And also what I believe they call 'The Money Shot'


I have also found out that you can preorder my friends' band's album from Amazon! I find this remarkably exciting. They are unfairly talented and charming boys, who always have something smart to say. For example, regarding So Tomorrow, one of my favourites, they say

The song was written for a friend of ours who was so anxious about his future and his decisions that he couldn’t move forward at all. OSA have on occasions found themselves equally bewildered by the choices that they see before them. We live in a dual world where every small personal decision we make might have enormous consequences; eg. when OSA buy a cheap pair of trainers are we saving money so we can pay our rent, or are we supporting the abuse of a 14 year old in a sweat shop in the Phillipines? AAAAAAAAAAAAAggggggggggggg

ghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

So Tomorrow asks how much time we can afford to spend feeling guilty, and whether it might not be better to go out, take up cigarettes and stop waiting for life to miraculously become easy.

And to all of those of you who are anxious about the future, just remember: It’s not happened yet!

So, in the sprit of the thing, I have started to apply for a Masters in Applied Translation. ARG. Terrified!

Anyway, I am very happy but utterly museless. I really want to write, but I can't think of what. So, I'm taking request. Anything you've ever wanted to ask me about? Go for it. Want me to write you some fic? Just just tell me what. Specific as you like, in fact, go super specific, I need help and inspiration! I'll blog/write/well thats all I can do because I fail at drawing whatever you like.

HAVE AT IT!

Hmm, well, I know next to nothing about interwar Britain (obviously - yeah, the fact that it might just be the period BETWEEN the wars struck me about two hours after I wrote that question, whilst I was brushing my teeth, causing me to go, "Oh, HONESTLY," or rather more like, "Ohm, MMHFFLEE," what can I say, I am a smart one), so... I don't know what sort of exciting historical developements and whatnot would have been around for you to work up plot devices with, buuuuuut-- I feel it would make sense for Alphie to be a policeman as well, since otherwise, how would he have met Theo and Tudor? (Well, at school, I suppose, is another possibility, so maybe you should just disregard that.) As for the plot... just as something to think about, you might want to involve the electricity thing in some way, since otherwise you've created this rather interesting world but without using it to any great extent in the story itself. If that happens to spring you with any ideas, I dunno. (I came up with my (sort of) plot by my friend Andrea asking me a series of practical questions, so you might try answering some of those - like, what the gov't is doing that seems so odd, what kind of things are the police force up to (or is it just the obvious), etc etc.)
