    Summary

    He focuses his eyes on Mira, trying to keep his mind from drifting down strands of Weave that he can always feel calling him back. The dark circles around her eyes. The dirt under her chewed up fingernails. All the ways that she’s as tired and as scared and as temporary as he is, trying to turn this place into something slightly less temporary.

    Summary

    Harrison Lane is a ghost, cold and sexy. He’s brooding. He’s dead. He’s the cold, sexy, brooding, dead ghost from a YA novel series Sylvain reads across a week, just to feel a little more prepared for a two-minute audition.

     

    Now playing at an Archive near you. Starring Sylvain Gautier, a man lost in Los Angeles as so many men have been before. Ingrid Galatea, fated love interest and noted abstinence advocate. Dorothea Arnault, the fallen Disney starlet-turned-disaster. And Felix Fraldarius, who moved to New York three years ago to escape all of this.

    Summary

    This is a project to create a conlang that will expand upon and deepen the Elvhen language that was created for the Bioware game series, Dragon Age. Elvhen, as it is used in the games, is a cipher, not a language. My goal is to create a complete conlang, or at least a simulated conlang, that other fans can use. The goal is to create a constructed language that is to Dragon Age what Sindarin and Quenya are to Lord of the Rings.

    I do want to stress that this is a constructed language based upon the limited Elvhen we had encountered within the games. I am not using magical linguistic ninjitsu to "Figure out," the Elvhen language. In terms of the "official," language, consider this linguistic fan-fiction.

    This specific work is a collection of my ongoing progress Posts, which you can find on my tumblr (Link below in the notes).

    Summary

    The first gig Dorothea helps Sylvain land is an extended stunt cameo in a stoner flick, a chance to fully commit to self-parody, playing a washed-up child star turned drug dealer. The wardrobe department outfits him in sunglasses and Hawaiian shirts. He grows some scruff and behaves like an acerbic dirtbag for two weeks. “Pitch-perfect casting,” writes the Tribune. Says Entertainment Weekly: “A familiar face in a nearly unrecognizable performance, Gautier looks like he’s having so much fun being loathsome.”

    Summary

    Harry finds himself in the liminal space between Martinaise and actually having to be Harry Du Bois again. He needs to return to his apartment, and his job, and his life, but the prospect is terrifying; everything that was once him is everything he can't allow himself to be ever again. Kim helps him make the transition, and Harry pines wildly over him. They eat food and talk about the homo-sexual underground. Harry tries not to cry a lot.
