How my mind works on 4 hours of sleep: Go on, read it. I dare you.

Ah, teaching is the joy of life. Alright, so that's a lie. *shrugs* Sue me, then. (Don't! I'm poor!)

On the way into work, there's this one tree I pass under. If you know where I live you're thinking to yourself "
Big deal, there's trees all over, Jate!" and you'd be right. Except this tree is Super Special. Unless I'm awake, I always freak and think there's a snake dangling from the tree, because one of the dead-but-not-rotted-from-the-tree branches looks like a black snake. I'm not very with-it today, and I petted the tree branch.

underlucius is...! IS...! Beyond words! SOGOOD! Riposte (LM/SS) is done and !!!!!!!! *melty* underlucius owns me. And I've also got a twin - I'm Teh Ebil Twin™ #2. (cravache is #1) *flails* Fencing! GUH! Yank my chain any time you want to, UL, you own me I'm going to wind up stroking my foils ack, that sounds so dirty cracking out my sword...yeah, yeah, laugh it up! I can't think about fencing without also tossing in "after-spar shower" now, thanks to UL.

...I need fencing icons. *plots* And yes, I am really random today. I know I am, trust me. I'm at work (project for boss *and* trying to write, go me!) and actually dreading the end of my day. Of course, I will really like when I get home, since I plan on doing some system maintainence on my machine (yes, I am a techno geek) and cleaning my inking pens before inking. And drawing. More drawing than inking, I bet. Or maybe not. And writing! I've got something sent *gasp* off to a beta! *waits* Do I get a casualty count for that statement? *grins*

I'm redoing the fencing Lucius image and the new version should be up tonight, hopefully. Yes, yes, I love it and he looks so wonderful but his head's been bugging me since about thirty minutes after I inked it and I had to change it. :P I'm the artist and I say it sucks. But go squeeze Snape's arse while you wait. *grins* To the Lucius'es which are magically frequenting my journal... NAKED SNAPE! *flee*

I'm insane but love me anyways! MUAHAHAH!!!!!!

Art: My Bout, My Prize - Forgive Me? (LM/SS, R/NC17)

I know, all this art going on my main LJ and my art LJ - I must be crazy, ne? :P Phhhbt! I am, but I know it. *g* And, this way I get the full range of people who read on LJ but not the other. *coughs, clears throat, pimps* Most of the time my art's on jate_art. ^^ I changed my policy of flocking the high rated entries so... *shrugs* It's not a comm.

Drawn for underlucius because OMG *flail* please for the love of all that is slashy and good, read Riposte (LM/SS, Adult). It's only inked, but inspired by this gorgeous piece. underlucius still owns me!

His boy was leaning against the white wall, the water cascading over his head and back, his hands outstretched on the pristine tiles, his hair soaked, sticking to his olive skin in sensual tendrils. Lucius loved his hair, Severus thought it was too long, wanted to cut it to ear length but Lucius would not hear of it. He stepped into the streaming water and put his arms around the boy. Severus was a angry rigid bundle, but Lucius pulled him up and back with the ease of five years seniority, wrapping one arm around his waist and another around his chest.

“Forgive me,” he murmured. “Forgive me?"  The water, enchanted to pour like rain, was imitating a monsoon and Lucius was drenched in seconds, his own hair soon plastered to the line of his back.
