lackadaisicalnereidFor those of you who may not be aware:
In the corner of TVD fandom where I mostly reside, there is this obsession (I am not kidding. It's an obsession.) with a poet, Richard Siken, and especially his one poem, titled Litany In Which Certain Things Are Crossed Out. The obsession manifests itself in many shapes and forms: people's journals have titles from the poems, the lines from the poems are prompted on all the ficathons, mentioned in metas and focuses of fics, maybe even icons. In this case it's a picspam. What I tried to do started as an impossible idea: combine every line from the poem (which is about 150 lines) with different screencaps of scenes from The Vampire Diaries, focusing on Damon and Elena. TAH-DA. It's here, behind the
ETERNAL thanks to my betas and moral supporters (in order of appearance, I think?):

upupa_epops, who not only cheered this idea on and was FABULOUS moral support, but also provided advice and helped with the choices. If it wasn't for you, Marta, this probably would never have become more than an idea. You are to blame, just saying. ever_neutral, YOU WERE AMAZING, with your LOAD of constructive criticism which helped this picspam grow into its final form. youcallitwinter, who was awfully excited and cheered me on and read my ~1000 words of non picspam related stories, while I should have been working on the picspam. And finally, vergoldung, who cheered me on and SHAMELESSLY blackmailed me into finishing it quickly. Bless you all.
Note: The picspam contains images from all of the series, season 1 to season 3. Beware of spoilers if you haven't seen it.

More giant projects? Good. And I will be there to urge you on.
HERE HAVE SOME *throws stamina in your direction*
Guess what? Inmidst of all the blood and gore I actually got some artsy work done yesterday *is pleased*
I CANNOT describe to you how much I adore that scene. EVERYTHING about it. How they're followed from her house and finding out Stefan's in the tomb from Jeremy and how we first hear the fight, from Stefan's perspective who's suddenly had his role turned upside now, because in that moment, it's not a story anymore of S/E with occasional D, it's the other way around, it's D/E coming to S. GUH. And then she wants to get away but he won't LET HER, and when he asks "You done?" you get this downright awful feeling that he'd wait for AS LONG AS NEEDED, until she wasn't done. Guh. I HATE THAT SCENE.
Ugh, that scene. For unknown (very obvious) reasons it totally hits my kinks, which makes me feel bad FOR IT IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE KINK MATERIAL. Ugh, Nina&Ian. Acting like everything is foreplay all the time. HATE THEM. IT SENDS THE WRONG MESSAGE TO MY PERVERTED BRAIN, YO. QUIT IT.
Alex is queen. We all know that.
SINCE YOU ARE AWAKE (HOW?) I WILL NOW PROCEED WITH THE PM RAMBLING. Get ready. (Or not. Whatever works.)

I KNOW RIGHT? It's awful. Everything and nothing is foreplay with those two. Guh. AND IT ALWAYS LEADS TO NOTHING. Oh D/E <3
Alex is queen. We all know that.
Of course. If we didn't, she'd make us know.

WE CAN. I'm leaving my apartment in (1 or 2 hours?) but even then I'll have my phone with me, SO YES, now is good :)
