FullMetal Hangman: A Successful Thanksgiving

Journal Entry: Sun Nov 29, 2009, 12:07 PM



If there is one thing my family enjoys (especially the younger ones) it is infecting one another with our current fetishes. My brother is the one who normally starts this by infecting me, then I in turn pass the insanity on to my adorable little cousins. I will clarify that these little cousins are neither little nor so very young. The younger of the two is ten and just as tall as I, the elder is 13 and 5'8" - she, indeed, sucks. Tall, skinny, beautiful girl... why'd you have to get all the height in the family???

Anyway.

These two younger ones have become obsessed with watching the FMA anime. And I do mean obsessed in every sense of the word. For clarification this is the first anime, not Brotherhood, which I haven't completely introduced them to - yet. The ten year old finished watching both seasons and the movie while she was here, the older one has three more episodes of season two and has watched a little more than half the movie. Bless her little heart, she skipped to the last two episodes cause she wanted to watch the movie, so I don't know if she'll ever watch the ones she skipped over. The younger gave her a recap of what happened in them so that they could start the movie.

The younger one is soaking up FMA trivia like a sponge. She is impossible to stump at FullMetal Hangman and has given herself the title of 'Butt Sparkle Alchemist' (and is drawing transmutation circles on herself in ink). I'm afraid she is now beyond help.

The older one is doodling Black Hayate on EVERYTHING, cried over Ed, got upset that Al was wearing Ed's clothes, then cried over Ed some more. I would think it is safe to assume that she falls into the Ed fangirl camp.

But back to FullMetal Hangman. Somehow the three of us got stuck in my room while the house was full of people. My room has no TV, the DVDs were in another room with the TV, but we had my laptop. I honestly don't know how we started playing hangman, but somehow I had Photoshop pulled up and my tablet plugged in and we were playing hangman. But not just any hangman - FullMetal Hangman. And really, don't play this with my cousins - ever.

The younger one would stare at the blanks for a couple of minutes, then blurt out the answer. I couldn't fool her! The older one would guess two or three letters and have it solved. I tried names of people, places, titles, objects, phrases... none of it gave them a moments pause. I never got to draw more than a head and body on my hangman... excuse me, on the FullMetal Hangman. He was going to have an automail arm and leg, and an antenna and braid... but we never got that far. I'm so disappointed, though I think the older one may have tackled me if she'd ever figured out I was hanging Ed.

Journal History

deviantID

I call myself a ‘starving artist’. I am gainfully employed, however my 9-5 job is far from being what I want to do with my life. I have many artsy hobbies including but not limited to: drawing, sculpting, sewing, jewelry-making, and costuming. I separate sewing from costuming because in my little world I define sewing as making everyday things - like skirts for the little cousin who will wear NOTHING ELSE! Costuming is much more fun - and also more expensive. Sadly I only get to do this when other people are paying me to make something or when I justify making something for the heck of it - which is seldom.

I sing. I teach voice. I lead a couple of children's choirs. I am very involved in music of many different genres and quite frequently a song I'm singing, or studying, or teaching, or listening to becomes my inspiration.

My love is writing. I dab at everything from fan fiction to professional fiction and even a few editorial articles here and there for some minor (and unheard of) publications. At the present time I do not receive monetary compensation for my efforts, which is why I call myself a ‘starving artist’.

I currently reside in Arkansas with my silver tabby cat, my younger brother and my octogenarian grandfather.
