Happy stuff
Aug. 11th, 2016 12:23 pm- Look at this beardy!Harry being all gloriously intense and hairy!
The Chosen One by pokieart
I just LOVE beards, however for some reason it is hard to imagine a really Harryish Harry with a beard, but this does it for me. ♥
- I am so in love with this Holtzmann the Riveter I can't tell you. I actually think I DREAMT about Riveter!Holtzmann before I saw this? And this is like KABOOM PURE FEEEEEEELS. I've asked Mr Birds to get me the poster for my birthday.

We Can Bust It! by hugohugo
- This letter Leslie Jones got from a young fan after getting vile abuse on Twitter is making me SO HAPPY.
In fact I am totally adopting this as my new mantra when people are being shitty.
- I decided to go as Newt Scamander again for our town cosplay event - I thought it was too niche, but people have pointed out that the Fantastic Beasts trailers are in the cinema right now so perhaps more people will know who I am? And the suitcase is actually too good to waste. On this subject does anyone know about temporary brown hair dye that won't stain your hair for ever? I don't really want to spend months growing out brown hair when I've just spent months getting it a nice white blondeand then dying it blue. Hmmm.
- Seeing Cursed Child (and the divine Ms
who_la_hoop) in TWO WEEKS. *flail*
- And I wrote a rough H/D thing that's about 2k and it needs plenty of work but it's a STORY (kind of, heh) and I WROTE IT and this makes me happy.
- I hope you're having happy days, too, but if not, remember: they're just jealous because you're a Ghostbuster and they're not. ♥ ♥ ♥

No clue about the hair dying. I'd ask a hair dresser as this is a tricky topic and you won't come out of it with green or orange hair.

PS And yay writing!!! I finished too quickly there. (And am really not making a teenaged boy joke here, because that would be inappropriate.)

Date: 2016-08-11 12:48 pm (UTC)And bearded Harry is gorgeous. God.
That poster is brilliant! And she so lovely. I'm hoping I can watch the movie tonight. YAY!
You're watching the play with who-la?? OH MY GOD! You're going to have so much fun! I meant to ask you when you were going. Have a brilliant time, birds, and if you can, take lots of photos.
NEWT! I don't know anything to suggest brown hair without it needing months (or at least weeks) to come off. Er, a wig? :)
Useless puff is useless. ^^

Date: 2016-08-11 02:00 pm (UTC)Yay for writing! I had a good run the other day and hope to take some writing time today, myself.
I also vote for a wig or some kind of spray on hair color or hair chalk. I think putting any kind of brown over a nice, light blond like you have now would risk the original color, regardless of how temporary it might be.
Glad you're doing well! <33

Date: 2016-08-11 02:58 pm (UTC)And yeah I saw the Ghostbuster poster already and isn't it brilliant! I haven't seen the movie yet, but I'm already deeply in love with Holtzmann, if the pics and gifs flooding the internet right now are anything to go by. And the letter, so amazing. I love Julian too, not as much as Holtzmann, but he makes for a good second place.
And yay for writing! I already sort of started drabbling for nextgen, couldn't resist the prompt, and isn't it just the best thing to have your fingers absolutely itching to write :)

Date: 2016-08-11 04:47 pm (UTC)Also, about the hair, you could maybe try hair chalk? It's a bit of a hassle to put in, but I've done it before with pink and blue and they both washed out easily after. I bought a big box of different colours, and I'm pretty sure it included browns as well, but I haven't tried that out. It was pretty cheap :)
(Just remembered that you asked about my lilac hair when I got that, and to update you on that - it lasted disappointingly short. Just a week and a half later it was completely gone. On the bright side - it makes it less scary to do something like that again!)

Date: 2016-08-12 01:18 am (UTC)Oh yes, wow, good idea asking for that poster. I feel like it would be very difficult being upset if you had the option of looking at it in real life. Oooh, and two weeks until the play, you say? That's soon. That's very soon. Are you excited or mostly terrified? Have you managed to avoid most spoilers or is it a lost cause?
Yayyyy for writing as well. That must be such a nice feeling, getting some words down. I should try it, myself. It's so tricky at times, though. Bah.
