So yes, because I'm crazy and trying to keep my mind off results day tomorrow, I'm trying to write a Hetalia fic about the Anglo-Portuguese alliance. The research and stuff has been great fun, I've learned a lot while doing it, but trying to cover roughly 700 years of history in a Hetalia way while not making it too much of an infodump is difficullllt. Especially when one of the characters involved is an OC, sob. Anyway, I'm slowly working my way through finishing it all (I've divided it up into dates/events to make it easier for myself, lol) but I have no idea if I ever will, me being me, and since I finished the first part and I quite like it I thought I'd post it here. >.>;

Title: no title yet, because I'm a dork :B
Fandom: Axis Powers Hetalia
Characters: England, Portugal [OC]
Summary: June 1147 - the siege of Lisbon, and how England and Portugal first met.
Rating: So, so G. For now.
Word Count: 888

( Really, it was an accident, the first time they met. )

( Historical Notes )

Because I'm bored and drew a hell of a lot of art today, and because I can, have a huge art dump of everything half-decent I've doodled/drawn in the past few weeks or so. XD Some of you have probably seen some of these already but I can't remember who I've shown what to, so have it all, peh. :P

My God it has been almost a year since I did a fanmix. (Also, yay for two entries in one day?) ANYWAY, here is a new fanmix for you all to enjoy! ♥ And for today's subject...

Medium: Book (Television? livejournal RP? idek)
Fandom: Doctor Who (Big Finish books)
Subject: Oliver Day
Title: Mr. Brightside
Warnings: Spoilers for all of Oliver's story, and then some. Lots of .m4as - I'm really sorry but I couldn't get them to convert ;o; And I admit, this mix is all Crucible's, and by extension Megumi's, Jchan's and Big Finish's fault.
Notes: I've been messing around with an Oliver playlist for a couple of weeks now and only now pulled it together to make a mix. (Which quite awesomely, means that this coincides with Meechan's birthday! :3 ♥) I had to fight to not flood the mix with The Killers as well. XD; I wanted to put quotes from the book in the liner notes but between me leaving to go away and me coming back I seem to have misplaced my copy of Snapshots and it's REALLY ANNOYING ME and I wanted to get this up today ;o;. So. Yes, no quotes. ;~~;

So it just occurred to me that when I was making my mad dash around my games yesterday to tell them all I'd be on hiatus, putting something up in my personal journal completely slipped my mind.

SO YES, THIS IS THIS POST. ♥ I am heading off to Hawkhirst (a campsite with a lake somewhere in Northumberland area) to try and improve my mediocre sailing skills for five days and hopefully come out the other side one step closer to getting my Duke of Edinburgh Gold award, so. Yes. :X No internets so I will be unable to talk to you lovely people until I get back. ;~~;

ILU ALL and will be back on Friday! ♥
