Recurring TVD icon post; feat. Caroline, Rebekah and Tyler...
Okay, I made a crapload of TVD icons: a bunch of Caroline icons, of course (a random collection of Season 2 and 3 scenes), some Caroline/Tyler icons (as always), also 2 or 3 Rebekah (however you spell her) icons because I kind of like her.
While we're at it, a few random thoughts on yesterday's TVD episode:
Okay guys, please tell me there is someone out there who hates Matt as much as I do! I can't believe they're dragging down Jeremy to prop Matt and I cannot believe they're even comparing Matt's "sacrifice" (come on, he chose Elena over Vicky; it was not like he the Town's or even someone else's safety over his beloved sister - he chose his ex-girlfriend [who he's still obsessed over, me thinks] over his already dead sister) to Jeremy's hanging on to the girl he still loves.
I just... I hate Matt so much. I don't even know what it is about him that rubs me the wrong way... he's just so useless and I can't hear his whining anymore. He's the only one of the kids who's still human - he can easily walk away from all of this, so don't tell me his live is so fucking hard when everyone else's life is as hard or even harder. I just can't hear it anymore.
On a positive note: Caroline was still awesome and I love that they seem to rekindle her friendship with Bonnie. These two need some storylines apart from Elena, Damon, Stefan... (Matt; although I fear they're setting up Matt/Bonnie; meh, still better than Matt/Caroline.)
I loved Anna and I'm so sad she's gone (can she come back, please?). But I'm so glad she found her mom.Excuse me while I wipe away my tears.
Mason's back and I loved that he wasn't out for revenge but redemption. See, this is how you do it - you don't need to show some tragic background to make someone more likeable (I'm looking at you, Matt!); show me that he recognises his own mistakes and wants to do better and wants to help others get better and I'm all sold. I liked his scenes with Damon. I... think it was kind of refreshing to see other character constellations.
I wish Lexi could have stayed. I wish Lexi and Caroline could have met. So much wasted potential on both points. :(
Elena... oh Elena. She's such a hyprocrit, I can't even. The things she told Jeremy? Yeah, whatever, look at yourself, honey! Where the heck is Katherine when I need her? Can't we just switch the two of them, please?
Well, okay, I'm all good. I'm sorry for the mini-rant. It's not like I don't like TVD, some (okay, most) of the storylines just rub me the wrong way at the moment. I hope it gets better (when they kill of Matt eventually, hopefully).
I'm shutting up now. I still have icons.

Hope you enjoy! ♥

On a more personal note: I'm still cowardly avoiding taking the final steps for my thesis. (I still need to e-mail two professors concerning the papers I've written in the last semester. I also still need to finish one last paper in Diachrony. I just... I only have one month left and I have to meet this deadline. Blergh.)
We also finally have a new cat. She's still sort of nameless (she was supposed to be called 'Jack' because she was supposed to be a tomcat... but she's definitely not) and pretty much scared by everything (but a sweetheart and very cuddly if she's gotten used to someone). ;)
I really need to shut up now. ♥
P/S: If anyone needs an invite code for Dreamwidth (maybe for a back-up blog when LJ is down again), let me know.

I completely agree with pretty much all your thoughts on TVD. I hate Matt too, and I hate the way he treated Caroline (I even wrote an entire post (http://12-12-12.livejournal.com/130445.html) about why Matt sucks and why M/C was toxic and dysfunctional even in S1), and I hate that they're blatantly cutting Jeremy down to prop Matt, ugh, it's ridiculous.

And I'm glad you like my icons. Thanks so much for your comment!

Meine favs sind 3, 9, 11, 17 und 26.
Das mit deiner Abschlussarbeit schaffst du schon, mach dich nicht verrückt, das wird alles schon werden. Wobei ich dir nachfühlen kann, wenn der Druck auf einen steigt und man sich manchmal selbst in seinen Gedanken blockiert. Tief durchatmen :)
Oh eine neue Katze! Habt Ihr inzwischen einen Namen oder ist das arme Ding noch immer namenlos? ;)
Muss ja gestehen, dass ich das mit Dreamwidth noch nicht so ganz kapiert habe. Es scheint ja recht ähnlich aufgebaut zu sein wie LJ, aber irgendwie nicht so öffentlich, oder? Komme mir inzwischen echt alt vor *hust* ;)

Ich will gar nicht wissen, wie es erst wird, wenn ich tatsächlich an der Arbeit sitze. :( Im Moment hab ich noch so viel zu erledigen und ich fühle mich einfach wie gelähmt. Ich weiß ganz genau, was ich in den nächsten Tagen noch zu machen habe, aber ich kann mich einfach nicht dazu überwinden, es wirklich zu tun. Bah. Ich glaub, ich bin erst mal ganz froh, wenn ich die Anmeldung durch habe und das Gröbste erledigt ist.
Mittlerweile hat sie tatsächlich einen Namen erhalten (obwohl ich sagen muss, dass Namensfindungen für Kater irgendwie immer einfacher waren... da gibt's irgendwie "coolere" Möglichkeiten): Sie heißt jetzt Mary.
Dreamwidth ist quasi LJ - nur etwas weniger fehleranfällig und natürlich noch nicht ganz so groß. Ich hab mir nach dem letzten riesigen Crash von LJ mal einen Account geholt, damit meine Posts hier quasi "gesichert" sind.
(Und das mit dem "alt vorkommen" geht mir ja mittlerweile auch schon so, wenn es um Twitter, Tumblr etc. geht. Ich bin ja nicht mal bei Facebook.)

Hm. Das mit dem ewigen Wegschieben kenne ich auch zu gut, ich wünschte ich hätte da den mords Tipp für dich auf Lager, aber ich mach das leider selbst zu gerne. Aber stress dich nicht, irgendwann wirst du von alleine da endlich was machen wollen! Ich drücke die Daumen, dass eher früher als später :) Aber wenn du ne Deadline hast, ist das vielleicht ja ganz gut, weil sie dich irgendwann dazu zwingt, was zu tun.
Oh ein Kätzchen! Gibts mal ein Bild? Und was macht die Namensfindung?
no subject
Meine Ma und ich haben festgestellt, dass ich diese Eigenschaften ganz offensichtlich von ihr geerbt habe, da sie solche Probleme auch hat. Bringt mich nicht weiter, aber jetzt hab ich wenigstens einen Sündenbock. ;) Dafür hat sie mir auch versprochen, mich am Wochenende in die Küche zu zerren und mich erst dann wieder rauszulassen, wenn ich wenigstens etwas von meiner Liste geschafft habe. Im Moment schlägt mir der ganze Mist auch noch zusätzlich auf den Magen. :S (Wie wird das da erst, wenn's so langsam auf die Zielgerade geht? Angst.)
Ich hab mal zwei Bildchen von ihr hochgeladen. Die Namensfindung ist mittlerweile abgeschlossen und es wurde sich auf Mary geeinigt. Das ist die Süße:

Ja, ja, wem sachste das, aber manche Leute machen sowieso unfassbar unglaubliche Icons. Da weiß ich manchmal nicht wohin mit mir. Aber so oder so, ich bleibe dabei, mir gefällt deine Textarbeit :)
Ach gottchen. Ich kann ja nun aus Erfahrung sagen, wie es ist, wenn die Zielgerade immer näher und näher rückt und ich habe jetzt schon das Gefühl langsam aber stetig wahnsinnig zu werden. Ich hoffe deinem Magen gehts bald besser, das kanns ja auch nicht sein *drück* Manchmal wäre es doch einfacher Superwoman zu sein (oder in Stars Hollow oder wahlweise Hogwarts zu leben *gg*)

Ich habe jetzt mal ganz gekonnt den ersten Teil komplett uebersprungen, weil ich die neue Folge noch gucken muss. :(
Richtig tolle Icons! Am schoenstens finde ich #3, 7, 15, 19, 21 und 26.
Die gif ist sooooo schoen! Die habe ich sofort abgespeichert. <3

Dankeschön! Freut mich, dass sie dir gefallen. (Auch wenn ich mit meiner Antwort reichlich spät dran bin. RL lähmt mich im Moment etwas.)
Für die GIF kann ich leider nicht verantwortlich zeichnen, die hab ich mir von Tumblr geschnappt. Caroline war so hübsch in der Szene. :D
