The literary magazine publishing my short story just sent me a notification that due to the one expletive written in it, they think it would be better to publish it on the international section.

...I'm in America. I thought we had potty-mouths here?

Also, found a meme to do!

Your story is being published? Which magazine??? Congrats!

As for your meme... I'm quite good at scrabble.

Thank you! It's a small literary magazine called the rag?

Scrabble, yay!

Okay. I love what a wonderful mother you are, and how excited you are about the experience of Hiroshi. It always brightens my day to see a post about your adventures in motherhood. I love how assertive you are about what you need - I seriously respect and admire that trait in you. I love how sweet a person you are and how you were one of the first ones to be nice to me when I started out here (immediately following a flaming response I got from other fans). You've been and continue to be wonderful and I hope to be half the mother (someday) and friend (all the time) you are! <3333

Hon, I am so SO flattered by this - you made my day. And I'm sorry to hear you were flamed; that must have really hurt, especially with you being new to fandom. If it helps at all, I think you're a wonderful friend, not to mention a brilliant (so to be published!) writer.

*hugs*

Thanks! :)

Aaand.

One of my favorite things about you is how you say you live off positive feedback, but you act nothing but humble in the face of it. :) I love how comfortable you are with yourself and how comfortable I am geeking out with you when usually I feel like I've embarrassed myself over it. <333333!

Okay, well, that's weird.

But hooray for getting a story published! \o/

Thanks! :) I've got a meme response for you so even though I'm not sure if you wanted it, you're getting it!

I adore how I'm always learning things from you. You're always an inspiration and a treasure to talk with and to share with, and I hope for all the best things for you and your future! <33333

*blushes a lot* I completely forgot the meme was there, so this was quite an awesome surprise. I'm really honored you think I'm someone to learn from (if baffled by what I have to teach!). Since one good turn deserves another -- I appreciate how generous you are! With your time, your attention, your affection. I'm so internet!shy I clam up before I can tell people how much I adore them, but you welcome everyone with open arms. I love it. Thank you.

Thank you dear! And yeah, it was...odd.

Yay, I like you too! :) And here is your obnoxiously long response:

I love how brave you are, and how unafraid you are to put yourself out there. I love your view on things and how certain you are that they'll always turn out all right. I love that your writing always makes me think of music, and how I always look forward to being awed and inspired by you whenever you write something. :) You're always true to yourself and even when you're down, rest assured you'll bounce back and face whatever the problem may be. I love how sweet and adorable you are being in love with your girl (wink). I wish you all kinds of happiness, and I look forward to great, great things for you and your future. :) <3333333

(to self: When did this turn into a fortune-wishing meme, Lexi?)

Thanks, sweetie! <333 *huggles!!!*

:) I adore how clever and sweet and real you are; I always look forward to our little chats. I admire what an accomplished, intelligent young woman you are (and that you're about five years younger than I figured you were when first getting to know you lol) and I love how eager you are to experience and learn the things that inspire you. I love how you inspire me and how encouraging you are. You're an absolute sweetheart and a wonderful artist (in all senses of the word) and I can't wait to see where you go in life - because you're going places. Awesome places.

Oh, and you love dark blue - c'mon, how awesome is that? XD

You can never guess how grateful and happy i am that i left this impression of me to someone. I'm more than blessed to know you and you're not the only one who's always looking forward to our chats :) I'm also thankful that you inspire me, as much as i inspire you. Before i talked with you, i stopped writing, but now it feels right again. I regained my inspiration thanks to you. Also, seeing how you hard you try doing something new (icons) made me realize what a determined spirit you've got.

I bet one day i'll look in a magazine or buy a book and the author will be you, because your writing is full of passion and feeling.

And yes, dark blue is aweeeesome!!! i especially love azure, it's my favorite color <333
