Raven's lost her hawk says:
hello!
Kim says:
Hi!!
Raven's lost her hawk says:
I'm doing a beta for you, aren't I?
Kim says:
Yep!! Hope you like mystory, by the way.
Raven's lost her hawk says:
oh, I do, I do. I haven't finished the beta yet, though, cause what do you know, MS word has crashed on me. Seven times. in one night.
Kim says:
Computers!! Like to be awkward when you least want them to be! Glad you like it so far. I'm going to Spain 2mora, and I won't be checking my e-mail for a week, so don't think I'm ignoring if I don't reply, ok?
Raven's lost her hawk says:
'kay. lucky you, Spain! by the way, where are you planning to archive your fic? you do know about the Heliopolis situation, right?
Kim says:
Thanks! I know, and I'm not sure yet. Any suggestions?
Raven's lost her hawk says:
um... ff.net. which is crappy, and then there's statistical outliers - damn, only s/d stuff, and then the alphagate - but I can't figure out how to submit fic to it.
God, I'm a lot of help.
Kim says:
Hey! At least you can come up with suggestions, which is better than me!!
Raven's lost her hawk says:
have you been writing long?
Kim says:
Yes and no. Writing in general, yes. Writing fanfic, no. In fact on the fanfic side of things, this is my first attempt, so I'm just kinda hoping for a good response!!
Raven's lost her hawk says:
the very first one? wow!
Kim says:
Yep, its my first! Luckily I'm pretty good at creative writing anyway, so that helped a lot. How long have you been writing?
Raven's lost her hawk says:
writing in general since I could talk - I think. writing Stargate fanfic - a while. at the moment I have 42 archived fics... I think(!)
Kim says:
Wow!! That's a helluva lot of archives!! I'd love to read something of yours, if you don't mind waiting a while.
Raven's lost her hawk says:
please go ahead! and on that topic - I'm in current need of a beta... *hint hint* my usual ones have fled the country (are they trying to tell me something?)
Kim says:
I'd be glad to beta something for you! Maybe they're trying to tell you that your works so good they feel they are unworthy of reading it!! Or not! It'll have to wait until I get back from Spain next week, is that ok?
Raven's lost her hawk says:
yeah, that's fine. thanks!
Kim says:
It's ok!! On the subject of betas, would you beta some more of my stuff for me?
Raven's lost her hawk says:
yeah, of course!
Raven's lost her hawk says:
good.
Raven's lost her hawk says:
so, how old are you? (I need to keep that in mind when I inflict my horrible fic on you)
Kim says:
I'm 15, but a very mature 15.
Raven's lost her hawk says:
so am I, honey!
Raven's lost her hawk says:
I need to be two years older before I can read my own fic.
Kim says:
It can be that bad!! Besides, who says that age should come into it, it should be about the writing!
Raven's lost her hawk says:
well - my previous beta - Aloysius - called me a force of darkness.
Kim says:
So!! If you read any of my none fanfic writing, you'd probably think I was completely crazy!! And probably a psycopath too!! (I'm not by the way!)
Kim says:
THE ROAD LESS TRAVELLED
CRUEL TWIST OF FATE
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less travelled by,
And that has made all the difference.
The Road Not Taken- Robert Frost
She sat alone, watching him silen
Raven's lost her hawk says:
great. please be warned, my betas do tend to go nuts after a while. you may have read some of their stuff - Aloysius, Cam, Hathor and Zia nova - and they're all as nutty as fruit cake now(!)
Kim says:
I've read some of their stuff, Zia nova's very good at writing humour. You don't need to worry about me going crazy, most of my friends would say I already am! And you've never met my friend Anna, no matter how sane you are, she'll definately drive you crazy!
Raven's lost her hawk says:
hey, my best friend is talking to me in the other window - she wants me to come with her to an art gallery, I asked why:
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
to say 'today, i went to the art gallery with iona, she fell over and killed a pigeon'
Kim says:
Nice!!
Raven's lost her hawk says:
iona is me. it's one of my many nicknames. and becca has a phobia of pigeons.
Kim says:
Weird!! Well, probably not that weird, I have a phobia of injections! (Shivers!) I HATE them! Tell becca I said hi!
Raven's lost her hawk says:
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
hello,
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
kim
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
.
Raven's lost her hawk says:
she is a little mad. admittedly, but she's my best friend, what does that say about me?
Kim says:
It says that your a little like me, we both have mad best friends. Maybe that makes us both mad too?!
Raven's lost her hawk says:
no, we can be the sane best friends. can't we? *gibbers Legacy-style*
Kim says:
Yeah!! Well, you can, I think it's already too late for me. But I'm crazy and I'm happy, so who cares?!
Raven's lost her hawk says:
*sings* don't worry, be happy...
Kim says:
Exactly!! Anyway me and my friends all work on the basis that life's too short to care what other people think! If they're that bothered about you, they've obviously got no life of their own. Right?
Raven's lost her hawk says:
right! I knew I'd like you...
Kim says:
Thanks!! I knew I'd like you too. I think you'd probably like Anna too, once you get used to the insanity that is!!
Raven's lost her hawk says:
oh, I love insanity!
Kim says:
Me too!! How boring would life be if we were all sane and normal?
And i'd give up forever to touch you has been added to the conversation.
Kim says:
Hi becca!!
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
hia
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
!
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
how r u?
Raven's lost her hawk says:
*laughs*
Raven's lost her hawk says:
Becca!
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
what?
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
mother
Kim says:
Fine thanks. Must be nice having Iona as a best friend
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
oh fantastic, i never look stupid
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
!
Raven's lost her hawk says:
*laughs* are you still going to make me go to the art gallery and kill pigeons?!
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
yes, but be not too violent with the pigeains, we might have dinner
Kim says:
You really don't like pigeons, huh? Not that I blame you, I don't like them either. Did iona tell you about my injection phobia?
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
really?
Raven's lost her hawk says:
I didn't. and we don't want to start on my list of phobias.
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
i could cope with that, coz needles dont ly over u in town and trafalgar square
Kim says:
Yep!! Hate them, every time I have to have one I end up nearly crying. I had to have my TB this year and it was horrible, I was literally on the verge of tears when I had it done!!
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
aaaaaaw, atleast it's only every now and then, what if u were diabetic?!
Kim says:
One word-HELP!!!!!!!!!!!! I'd probably die from fear or something!! I'm guessing that you live in London?
Raven's lost her hawk says:
she lives in London!
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
no, fantastically boring crosby.......
Kim says:
Where's crosby?
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
liverpool
Raven's lost her hawk says:
and so is Formby, where I live.
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
hehe
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
never heard of formby........
Kim says:
Liverpool! Not that bad, at least you have decent shops! I live in incredibly boring Harrogate, the land of crap shopping!!
Raven's lost her hawk says:
Becca, do we have decent shops?
Raven's lost her hawk says:
I very much doubt it...
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
oh yeah, there's the newsagents, or the old lady clothes shop....
Kim says:
Bet you do! Gotta be better than here, I live in a town where most of the people are 70!!
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
70 is such a cool age!
Kim says:
Not if you're 15 and want to go out with your friends!! There's nothing to do around here, unless you want to spend your time skating (yuk!)!
Raven's lost her hawk says:
ice or roller?
Kim says:
Skateboards!
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
i would be dead 6 times over if i tried something like that
Raven's lost her hawk says:
*pictures it*
Raven's lost her hawk says:
*laughs*
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
u are picturing my six deaths and laughing?
Raven's lost her hawk says:
no!!!!
Raven's lost her hawk says:
would I do that? who would I got shopping with?
Raven's lost her hawk says:
*go
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
haha!
Kim says:
Me too! i've never tried, and don't want to i'd end up looking like an idiot! I have friends who skateboard though, they're umm....*searches for a word*
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
greasy?
Raven's lost her hawk says:
ahem.
Raven's lost her hawk says:
*rattles chains menacingly*
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
yeah, are they ahem?
Kim says:
Probably better to say, typical 15 year old boys! Know what I mean?
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
oooh, do now, so they are greasy then?!
Kim says:
Yeah! And spotty, and they have the mental age of four year olds *rolls her eyes*
Raven's lost her hawk says:
sounds like people I know!
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
yeah, boys
Kim says:
Is it me or do all the boys you know act annoyingly alike? Can't they think for themselves?
Raven's lost her hawk says:
no, they can't. but neither can some girls - they all wear the same things!
Kim says:
Oh, yeah!! The really popular people, who are like sheep, you mean?!
Raven's lost her hawk says:
yes! we have one!
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
baaaaaaaa, what?
Kim says:
Oh god!! What are we going to do? We've got to save becca, she's turned into a sheep!!
Raven's lost her hawk says:
*laughs hysterically" she has one - called Bernie!
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
u will never take my fur!!!!!!!
Raven's lost her hawk says:
wool!
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
no, thats a cow
Raven's lost her hawk says:
Bernie is a cow?
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:
oh yeah, wool
Raven's lost her hawk says:
I thought he was a sheep!
And i'd give up forever to touch you says:

Raven's lost her hawk says:
computer's crashing!
