Happy New Year!

[flighty_dreams]

Best wishes to you all in 2013. :-)

2012 was good for me on other fronts, but definitely not the LJ writing/posting front. I'm sorry I've been so MIA around here. Consequently, posting more often is marked 'High Priority' on my New Year's Resolutions list. I know my story updates were pretty pathetic in 2012, but fingers crossed, they will improve this year. (Not much further they could fall, sadly, so it has to be trending up, right?)

Anyways... yes I am still working on my WIPs. I am optimistically hoping to update Spliced before the end of this month, now that the craziness of the holidays is over. We'll see how that goes; it's a long chapter. I'll give another status report later if things start looking grim there, but I'm hoping that won't be necessary. 

I've had some readers ask me about new Spliced, and I thank you all for your patience. I really do appreciate it.

Well in that scene they were in the guys apartment - so he had his books.

Also don't hit my unique choices in picturing them. But when I read that Min was lean but not small, had long soft black hair, was lean and had a androgynous face except with a certain strenght of character I was reminded of my teenage crush Bill Kaulitz. Being the obsessed teenager that I was I know that he can look both so strong and almost scary and at other moments totally small and hugable. And Alex and Min scream for someone who has both vunerability and strength.

Imagine the make-up away - that boy doesn't go out without it.

Matt I never truely pictured but recently I started seeing him like Darcy from the Lizzie Bennet Diaries (Pride and Prejudice in Vlog). It doesn't have anything to do with how he's described it's like totally a feeling.

I rewatched it really imagining Matt this time and had to laugh when he said: "Social classes are a real thing - people who thing otherwise life in a fantasy"

I don't remember that scene that well but then yes, lucky the guy with all his books waiting to be rediscovered.

That's the beauty of writing , one can imagine whatever the hell one wants :)And no matter the descriptions, you always see someone that appeals to you and so does everybody else and boy, does it vary!

But back to your own choices, sooo not how I see them, so very very not :D
I see you took Min way more androgynous than I did or my version of androgynous was still more manly than boyish. Depending on the picture and stylization model Andrei Andrei fits my Min image.
At some point he had nice long hair and even chains as a bonus gasp! Although I cannot seem to find some the ones I have in mind that fit very well (the kinky ones (damn those are SO fitting but nowhere to be found or with longer straight hair)

here are a few:
one from a Min series

a very proper bedroom state of being done :P

here in more andorgynous, younger Min version (which incidentally is not how I see him now, but fits for Kristech times for me)

As for Matt, I've got only one picture of a guy, no idea even how he looks en face, but he's in my icon. Just the perfect Matt's expression on his face :)

Very true - that is the beauty of a story - it's a different story for everyone that reads it and it seems the main characters are as well. ;)

Though I do admit this Min doesn't look too shabby ;)
