Tuesday...or is it Wednesday... PICSPAAAM & Music
NEWWSFLASSSH O:
I'm going on my holiday in like 2 weeks, on 10th July, so I won't be 'round until August 1st when I get back. *cries* Then again, I haven't been on a proper holiday for 5 years, so I'm really looking forward to it.
I'll have my laptop with me, and there's WiFi in some of the places I'm staying in, so I might, might be able to pop online every once and a while, but I shall be continueing to write when I get the chance to. Until then (about 11 days), I'll churn out as many things as possible. So enjoy Tuesday/Wednesday picspam while it lasts!

Also, I know how music can really inspire people, so to help coax that bunny back to Junie I've compiled a bunch of songs that never fail to inspire me. Some of them have nothing to do with BIGLY, but for some reason they just get me into the "zone", as the creepy professionals say.
#1 Your love is a song - Switchfoot
#2 Centre Of Attention - Jackson Waters (one of my all time favourite songs, the kick near the end never fails to amaze me). Due to the fact they're a pretty obscure band, there are no actual versions on youtube, so the video below is the vid I first heard this song in.
#3 Howl - Florence And The Machine
#4 Guns And Horses - Ellie Goulding, "Left my house, left my clothes. Door wide open, heaven knows, you're so worth it. You are."
And finally... #5 Lost In You - Three Days Grace

Vidding Inspiration
Brionyx509
I've talked to her a couple of times, and not only is she incredibley lovely, but she is a God at editing. I first came across her not too long ago, through one of her 500 Days Of Summer videos, then I realised she had done supernatural ones too.

Words don't describe how incredible this vidder is. Her name's Kelly and not only is she extremely talented, but she's hilariously funny too. This vid actually introduced me to the instrumental "loss of a twin" which I used in a "10 things I hate about you" Demmy vid, that I no longer have on my computer.

I can't sum up my love, so you can see yourself:
And finally, my favourite vidder of all time, Gaby0189:
She is a crossover GENIUS. Her manips are what finally pushed me to track down a version of sony vegas after battling with a constant freezing windows movie maker, all that time ago. Most of her vids have introduced me to bands that I now adore, as well as favourite songs. This one was the first sony vegas produced vid I'd ever seen, and needless to say my jaw dropped and I died a little inside from the awesomeness.
I hope you enjoyed that little insight to the vidding world, and may you enjoy the show ;)
(All credit goes to the amazing gals that made these videos! I'm nothing but a fan.)

Out Here.
Hit of inspiration, I duno. I might elaborate on this one line, but this sort of popped into my head. I think I might try a "teach-'em-how-to-shoot" one-shot, as I have been dying to write one for like a year. Just need to get back into the swing of things, I haven't written anything original in like...5 months. Ouch.

Far From Home and Junie's Wallpaper
Junie was telling me about her severe lack of Demmy wallpaper, so I decided to try and whip something up and I kept thinking about how I'd make it. Then, I was listening to "Far From Home", a song that has been in my favourites box for a few months since I found it. It's a completely and utterly beautiful song by five finger death punch (I know, not very beautiful name), the chorus is incredible...well, actually the whole song is to be honest, but as soon as that first chorus hits, it's indescribable.
It got the cogs turning and MAGICALLY photoshop opened.
Here's the song:
and here you are, Junie, your very own Dean&Emmy wallpaper (click on it for a much bigger version!):
And here's a black and white version, I wasn't sure which you would prefer because I couldn't choose, so I thought why not give you both! This one is a little more angsty:
And finally, because you always get me in the fluffy mood:
Basically to say thank you for being so considerate about the soulcrushing exams (ONLY FIVE MORE DAYS TO GO!), loving Dean&Emmy as much as I do and for taming those plot bunnies of your's into the most amazing stories and one shots.

*cue more practice of these types of manips* & Zooey and Alexis goodness
I missed my Zooey and Alexis, though.
I can't do these types :( they look so...fake. Then again, they are, so it's not my fault. I guess practice makes perfect.
On the other hand!
Here's one I made earlier (i.e like months ago):
It's like battle of the shorties. I decided to turn the tables around, and make Alexis the shortcake in the one above. Yes, my brain is so fried that this kind of thing amuses me. Someone get me a straight jacket!
Possibly coming up in June: plain ol' supernatural picspam? more BIGLY picspam? A new wallpaper for Dear Junie? And perhaps some one shots and a finished dead in the water. Whoooo knows.

Sculpture People
“You sure this is it?” Emmy asked disapprovingly from the back seat of the sleek ’67 Chevy Impala. “Pretty sure we should have taken a left back there...” Emmy picked at her fingernails, trying to look disinterested.
“You mean towards Millennium Park?” Lauren asked observationally. “Didn’t think you were a park person.”
“Well, Millennium Park sounds a lot more interesting than another dead person.” Emmy retorted, stifling a yawn about to pass from her parted lips. Lauren made an amused snorting noise.
“Maybe you would fit in okay at the park... but I’m not so sure about Stretch and Muscles over there.” She raised her eyebrows in the direction of the offending brothers, who were busy pulling on matching navy coveralls, the integral part of their newest scheme.
“Is anyone really gonna fall for those?” Emmy said disapprovingly.
“Thanks for the support.” Dean said witheringly, “Great to know everyone’s on board here.”
Emmy rolled her eyes and creased her eyebrows together as Dean and Sam slipped out of the car into the Chicago breeze.
“What’s got you so upset? You’re usually one hundred and ten percent on these schemes.” Lauren asked her sulking friend.
“Don’t know.” Emmy muttered. “I’m just not in the mood for another hunt right now.”
“Fair enough.” Lauren stated. She knew what Emmy meant, the smell of corpses and the horrible crimson blood was enough to send most normal people howling to the nuthouse. She wondered idly when she had crossed that line.
“Plus I saw a brochure with the greatest sculpture ever.” Emmy said, so quietly that Lauren hardly heard her.
“A sculpture? You’re a sculpture person?” Lauren asked in disbelief. She had pegged Emmy as many things but an art person?
“It’s no ordinary sculpture, Lauren.” Emmy’s serious tone and expression forced Lauren to bite her lip to stifle a laugh. “It’s the biggest giant metal ball... thing. You. Will. Ever. See.”
“Sounds impressive,” Lauren retorted as seriously as she could. “You could ask Dean for the keys and we could go and see the sculpture. It beats waiting around here for them to get back.”
Emmy’s face brightened at the idea, “This is why you’re Brain and I’m Pinky.” She threw the car door open, launched herself outside and Lauren watched amusedly as Emmy half ran, half skipped behind the boys until she caught up with their large strides. Lauren smiled at the varying facial expressions that crossed their faces as Emmy explained her plan to them. Eventually Dean must have given in because Emmy jumped into the air excitedly and grabbed the small bundle of silver keys from his outstretched hand. Within seconds Emmy had bundled herself back into the car, her mood completely changed. She swung her gaze into the back seat and gave Lauren a disapproving look.
“Lauren. I’m not going to chauffer you around Chicago, get in the front.” Lauren paused before climbing awkwardly from the back into the front. She sat there for a moment in silence.
“Emmy... This is the first time I’ve been in the front of this car.”
Emmy looked at her in a mixture of confusion and amusement. “One of these fine days you and Dean are going to realise that you’re actually secret best friends. Or maybe...” Lauren shot her a disbelieving look, “You’re already secret best friends.” Lauren snorted.
“Yeah, yeah, can we get moving?”
