Mar. 18th, 2012 01:19 amI showed Adam some of the stuff I've been doing in Flash and ever since then he's been trying to get me to start a comic. He told me to do three panel versions of books I've read for English lit. I can do one for Game of Thrones without looking, watch:

He's thinking...more ambitious, though.
Adam: What grad schools are you looking at?
Me: Oxford and Harvard have good Celtic studies programs, but there's like a one in a thousand chance I'd get in.
Adam: Apply to Harvard anyway! You'd be going in a bout a year, right? What are you doing until then?
Me: Maybe a grad sche-
Adam: START A COMIC
Me: My family are being a little weird about it. My aunt wants me to retrain and become an accountant and my dad wants me to go back and become a doctor. My grandpa just likes telling me my degree is useless, I guess.
Adam: What does your youngest brother think?
Me: So long as I bring him cartoons, he doesn't care.
Adam: It's your destiny.
Me: I did have an idea for a TV show. Basically it would be retellings of Celtic myth-
Adam: I can't see an adult audience for that. Make it for kids.
Me: ...How do you rewrite stories where a guy decides he doesn't like the look of a baby, kills it, then finds snakes living in it?
Adam: Disney do it! CARTOONIFY IT!
At least my friends are supportive, I guess. Also beannachtaí na Féile Pádraig oraibh. I have four red bulls and 24 episodes of Mythbusters to get through, whee.
