My involvement in the Hannibal/Scipio discussion on meme (this is entirely for my own reference, because I'm sure I'll lose all of these links for good if I don't make a record of them):

Also sorry I've been a bit slow on replies these last couple days! If you haven't heard back from me, I promise I haven't forgotten about you. I had a hectic, exhausting weekend of work and it's taking me a while to get back into the swing of things.

Turns out I do owe you a reply to that last thread! I kept meaning to go back and check back, but meme moves way fast and RL kind of caught up with me.

[whatevermortal]

Naw that's ok haha, I swear I look away from meme for 5 seconds and everyone's 2 posts ahead! I blame all that dang Sherlock wank, it's filling up posts before you can get a good conversation going in any other thread. The history thread's been so quiet ever since it started. :(

But, hey, we could always just carry on the thread here if you want.

[dhampyresa]

Meme moves outrageously fast. (I hate the Sherlock wank so much. SO GLAD I'M NOT ON TUMBLR.)

I would like that, if you don't mind. Do you want to repost your last comment or should I just go ahead in replying to you?

[whatevermortal]

It does! Thankfully, I think the Sherlock wank might be winding down? The first post explicitly said there wasn't really anything going on anymore, and then the whole thread got frozen for ace wank.

Yeah, totally, go for it! But don't worry bout reposting my comment, I can go back and double-check what I said if I need to! :)

I am an idiot, but have a very belated answer.

I hope you managed to get to the library, even if you didn't pick up any books. I have something of a problem with books, ngl, I WANT TO READ THEM ALL, like literary Pokémons. I am sadly putting the learnings on hold right now, but I will let you know as soon as I go back to them.

(WORLDBUILDING IS THE BEST NGL)

((I can't seem to get them to do anything between the extremes of pre-slashy & old-marrieds I KNOW, RIGHT? Those two, I swear. *bonks some heads together* Yay! I look forward to getting to read your fic as a reward for finishing mine.))

[whatevermortal]

OHMYGOD I am the worst human, I'm so sorry I haven't replied for so long! I got caught up with uni and RL things and haven't logged on to DW for months. I'm going to reply all your comments now anyway and hope you're still interested in chatting, but I totally understand if you're not.

I have since managed to go to the library! And, actually, I got to write a whole essay on the Battle of Cannae and Hannibal for one of my units, so I ended up doing a lot of reading about them last week! :P And, hey, I downloaded a bunch of journal articles using my uni access--I'd be happy to send any of them your way if you're interested!

((How's your fic going btw? I'm hoping to go back to mine and actually finish it by the end of the year! Fingers crossed haha))
