Hedgewitches are supposed to be female. You know, because Witches are generally female. if they're male they're called other things, like "warlock" or "wizard" or whatever. hum.

But Jun was born with a male's body... But a hedgewitch all the same. So she's physically male but mentally female because she's a hedgewitch.

yeeeeah....

Jeremy's poem. lol.

2009-03-15T14:04:00.001-07:00

I dreamt about you last night
You told me you were surprised I was still stupid enough to
And, shit, I was surprised too

You'd think that after all this time I'd forget. That I'd–
Well that I'd something. But seeing you again...
I almost choked.

This morning, I opened the chest again
You know, the one that you kept back out behind the stables?
It's still full of all of your stuff.

It's been a hundred some years...
Please come home?

PART ONE IS DONE!!

HOLT BALLS EDITING

2009-01-28T11:53:00.000-08:00

SO GAIZ

I'm going back through In Flames and doing major editing. :D

and trying to figure out a name for it. (woo-ah!)

But In Flames We Will Dance is what I have called it since it was a little baby, barely one chapter long, so I have NO CLUE what to call it. I am so bad at naming stories. I can name inanimate objects (my scetchbook is now Issei), and I can think up good working titles for things and even good band names.

I recently thought of IKW, standing for In Knowing Winifred... or Inky Kraken Wars. Haha!

Just like... I so think of the story as "In Flames We Will Dance" or "In Flames" that I don't know what else would do it justice. I'd just full on title the thing In Flames, but then again yeah.

At the same time, there's the MCR song, Welcome To The Black Parade, was codenamed 'The Five Of Us Are Dying'.... and its now Welcome To The Black Parade... and they spent around 3 years on that song. so you never know. I might randomly think of something brilliant.

2009-01-08T22:09:00.000-08:00

Name 12 of your original characters.

alright I can do that.

I. Vincent
II. Fiana
III. Eliot
IV. Collin
V. Macy
VI. Lexi
VII. Will
VIII. Seana
IX. Jeremy
X. Juniper
XI. Sean
XII. Mothy

I. I (Vincent), VI (Lexi), and XI (Sean) are all told to wait in a room together until someone comes in to get them. Let's say no one does. Who would leave the room first?

Vincent would go because Lexi and Sean would probably be making out.

II. If II (Fiana) had to do one nice thing for VIII (Seana), what would it be?

Bake her cookies??

III. If IV (Collin) and VII (Will) co-starred in a movie, what genre would it most likely fall under?

something really weird. some weird fantasy movie that would have random panning of forest.

IX. If III (Eliot) was made into a toy, who would be more likely to buy it? IX (Jeremy) or X (Juniper)?

Uh... June would buy it as a present for Mothy. > >

V. Would V (Macy) be likely to consider stalking XII (Mothy) or vise versa?

they would not be stalkey. they'd both get stalked by other, creepy old men, because Mothy looks like a chick and Macy dresses like a chick...

VI. What would VI (Lexi) make the better star of? An anime or a newspaper comic strip?

He would have an advice comic strip. it would be called 'Ask Lexi' or "ask a fag' or something... probably not the second. gawd i love lexi. haha.

VII. VIII (Seana) wants to buy a car but can't decide who offers a better bargain. Should (s)he buy from II (Fiana) or XI (Sean)?

well Fiana owns a car. Sean doesn't.

VIII. If V (Macy) wanted to dye his or her hair but could not decide on the color, would (s)he rely on I's (Vincent) opinion or IV's (Collin)?

Macy dyes his own hair. So does Collin, and Vincent has naturally black hair so he doesn't need to do anything to it. So Macy basically wouldn't really need to ask anyone for advice... But if so he'd ask Collin.

IX. Whose babies would be cuter? XII (Mothy) and III's (Eliot) or IX (Jeremy) and II's (Fiana)? (If it is impossible for them to breed because of gender or species, just go with it and pretend that it was possible, please.)

Jeremy and Fiana would be insest. kinda. Mothy and Eliot are already together, but Mothy is infertile... but either way they'd both be adorable.

X. Who would have a DeviantArt account; and if not, what would their reason be?

Vincent. for his crazy clock painting skills.

2009-01-06T00:29:00.001-08:00

its been a hell of a while, hasn't it??

aww man. over a month. not that anyone reads this...

i got a little version of jeremy... he's sitting on my green desk right now. hehe. Delf Shine.

UMM

yeah... not much else to say, taking a break on In Flames to work on Before The End... collecting my thoughts for In Flames though. Maybe I'll start back up on wednesday... i'll try to post again then.

alright. awesome. its a plan!

Story: In Flames We Will Dance

Name: Collin
Age: "19", more around 50ish

b-day: July 21

Year Of Birth: "2000"
Nicknames: Pan (Macy)
Gender: Male
Hair/eyes: brownish blond
Relationship status: free. single. has little interest in romance...
Personality: Collin is laughs less than the other group members, choosing instead to be the more straight-faced one, even when he does ridiculous things.
Hometown: The Olympic National Park (WA)

Race: Faun
Type: Grove Spirit
Power: physical movement
Other: Collin is originally the spirit of a tree up in the Olympic National Park, where he meets Macy, who is drawn by the sound of Collin's pipes. The two hit it off very well, easily becoming good friends. Collin's tree, however, is cut down and Collin manages only to retain a small amount of the wood, which he carves down into juggling balls and a curving pendant which he never takes off. The loss of his tree, however, allows Collin to move freely from the forest, at which he moves down with Macy when Macy and Vincent's immediate family are sent into California as an act of trust to the clan of Bloods that lives there. They keep it a secret, but Collin actually lives with Macy.

Sleep Sleep Need Tea Sleep...

2008-11-29T10:33:00.000-08:00

Aww man, I really could use a cup of tea right now... You know?

So a lot of stuff has happened since I updated last. geez. First off, my Grandpa died around 2 last night... I'd say something like "boo hoo I'm so upset", but I'm not really... I mean, I saw it coming, I knew it was going to be today, and he's been declining for a super long time. Plus, its sort of a weight off my shoulders, because it means less stress on my mom and therefore less stress on me.

Two days ago was Thanksgiving, ate some kick-ass mashed potatoes. Damn I love Mashed Potatoes. *wiggles with delight* We also got to meet the newest member of our family... that being a tiny little doggy named Spirit, chocolate and golden lab mix. She's a cutie, and seems to like going down the slide. Seriously. I kid you not. It was very cute.

What else? oh, I'm working on my aim with my whip... hit myself a good couple of times on accident while trying to move a tennis ball across the floor without touching it. I found out that I am better with a whip than my older brother. Hah. HAHAH. WIN.

Yeeeah... what else has happened? Did I ever mention that I'm engaged? It happened a while ago, like... before I started this blog, but it happened nonetheless, which is very exciting. Though I still have to wait two years to get married because I'm 16. *grumbles*

I feel fairly groggy right now... I was up kind of late last night eating leftover mashed potatoes, which I will probably go have more of as soon as I post, and I was on a natural, I-just-hung-out-with-my-fiance-for-about-8-or-9-hours-straight high. It was lovely. But now I feel groggy and a little grimy because I went in the hot tub last night and haven't showered in a couple of days. My hair is course with chlorine. =_=

MCR has a new site layout up... its pretty cool. *shamelesspluglol* On the subject of MCR, I finally finished my TCFSR shoot, which can be found on Deviantart You know? Its awesome. Some of them aren't all that great, but I did what I could with what I had.

Anyways, I'm off to go eat mashed potatoes.

-M.M.

Excited

2008-11-23T11:03:00.000-08:00

Aww man, I just saw Twilight last night... and while some people were all "bla bla bitch bitch" about it, I thought it was really good. Seriously, if someone hates something so much that they have to go babble about it to everyone, thats kind of lame. If I don't really like something, or am not into it in the first place, I don't go see a movie based on it. I don't read the book. I don't rant to everyone about how much it sucks. If you really don't like a movie that much, you can always just get up in the middle and LEAVE. Sure, it might have been a waste of money for you, but get the fuck over it. It was your choice to pay the ten bucks to go see it in the first place.

In any case, I thought it was good, and it got me super super pumped for writing Part Two of In Flames... ^_^ Jeremy plays the Piano, btw... (I have this bad habit of typing 'wtf' instead of 'btw'... =_=) It's like... "Part One: In which two people meet and the inevitable happens" and "Part Two: In which there is action and much is revealed". I like the way that goes... the one for Part Two doesn't run as smoothly though. That kind of bothers me.

On a similar note, I'm thinking of going back through and giving the chapters names... that will probably have only a little relevance to the story. Maybe they will be famous quotes, or just random little things that have some small importance in that chapter. Maybe. I haven't really decided. Need feedback, though...

Hooman... I woke up this morning and seriously wondered whether it was actually today (as in November 23) or if I had been asleep for several weeks and it was actually sometime after christmas. That was a weird sensation. Kind of freaked me out a bit, too.

OH~ and on the note of 'Freaking out', I need some ideas for the Werewolves... specifically, what happens to their clothes when they change? Do they just rip off and then they are naked when they change back, or do they morph with them? Also, I have an image of both Seana and Will as wolves... Will is black and brown, and Seana is black and grey... This takes up a lot of my thoughts these days. Hah...

Well, I guess thats all for now. In any case, I'll try to finish up part one and get on writing part two.

Bios: Macy Franklin Von Buren

2008-11-19T17:02:00.000-08:00

Story: In Flames We Will Dance

Name: Macy Franklin Von Buren
Age: 99, "17"
b-day: 29 February
Year of Birth: 1920
Nicknames: none
Gender: Male
Hair/eyes: Black and pink/green
Relationship status: Single
Personality: Macy is, like Vincent, kind of spastic, due to his race. (mind, not all Aurals are spastic, but being energetic is a common trait of theirs, whether it is being spastic or having enthusiasm for something) He is, as Fiana tells him at one point, "Awkward at life", in such ways that he is a little unsure of himself and his decisions, not entirely sure how to fit into a human society when he has lived through 100 years of their history.
Hometown: Olympia (WA)/ SF Bay Area (CA)

Race: Aural Vampire

Clan: "Von Buren" (Olympia Based)
Type: Mind
Power: Precognitive

The Change: Macy was born to a Von Buren Family, his mother's stop-age being 16 and his father's 18. He stopped aging at 17, joined WW2 after the Clan's move to Olympia from New Jersey. Not much exciting... He was, at one point, engaged in a political, clan-based arranged marriage, but it fell through in the end due to the fact that the other clan was forced to flee from the wrath of a local Blood clan, and moved back to Europe.

NOTES ON JEREMY~ (Juniper)

2008-11-17T14:09:00.000-08:00

I have the worst freaking nerves today... uuuhhhggg... >_>

Um. So. Jeremy now has a love interest... it has little to do with the main story line and she only comes into play in the prologue.... But she is awesome. I named her after my dressmaker's doll.. (=_= heh)... She plays Le Game of Hard to Get. (frenchfail)

So her name is Juniper, she has darkish skin (very tan), and has hair about the color of Juniper Berries, but more purple... She is a hedgewitch, and her family has tended to the Von Buren clan since they moved into the area. They long since found an Elixer of Youth, but no one in her family ever drank it. They passed it down, woman to woman, never having want of it (the proof that it works comes in the fact that the tree it was tested in their front yard looks like a healthy, young tree, but has been there since the first generation hedgewitch who poored the elixer onto the tree to test it).

Their song is Grace Kelly, by Mika. (I'm just going mad with the hyperlinks, aren't I?)... The reason for this is that Juniper initially thinks Jeremy is an ass, and rejects him. He continues to come to the cottage, and refuses to just give up, because she seems to captivate him. (Here) When she tells him that he is an ass, he asks her if he has a chance, and she says no. he responds, "Then I will have to come every day at the same time and talk with you until I do have a chance. If I can't come then I will send word to you so that you will still think of me at least for a moment that day." "Really?" She responds sarcastically, and he smiles. "I Promise."He does, and she comes to expect him every day, even finding herself irked when he doesn't come.

When Fiana is being stalked, Jeremy finds that almost all of his time is taken up in trying to keep Fiana safe with Will, and he temporarily stops going to see Juniper, forgetting to send her word... Even though she is stuck on hating Jeremy, she still glances out her door every day to see if he will come. After the kidnapping, when Fiana and Jeremy are close to death and need to be healed, Sheana drags them on her back to Juniper, and Juniper heals them, Seana explaining what happened. However, as soon as Jeremy is well, she shoves him out, telling him that he broke his promise, and that he will never have a chance now. He solumnly nodds, and asks her to take care of Fiana until she is well.

When Fiana awakes, Juniper explains that she was brought here with Jeremy ("That lying son of a b*tch...") by Seana , and Fiana asks if she is Juniper... Juniper says yes, and Fiana smiles and tells Juniper of how Jeremy talks of her a lot... Juniper refuses to give in. Fiana also says, and this causes Juniper to waver slightly, that she is the only girl Jeremy has talked to willingly outside of their family and Seana.

Finally, when Fiana and Vincent are getting married, Fiana goes to Juniper and asks her to make the bouquet, and Juniper agrees, traveling off into the forest for several days to find just the right flowers. When she comes back, she finds Jeremy sitting on her doorstep, weak from not eating, and under a small (and quickly shrinking) raincloud. Jeremy smiles at her, asking her something along the lines of "Where were you? I waited three days..." before passing out. Sighing, she says "I would leave you hear, but I'd be fired." and drags him inside... when inside, Jeremy wakes up, and asks her if she would accompany him to the wedding. She sighs, and says yes... This is her giving in a little, and she eventually gives in and admits to Jeremy that he has more than a chance and ends up drinking some of the Elixer.

*nods*

indeed.

Almost...

2008-11-15T23:24:00.000-08:00

So I'm getting done with Part One. (this is exciting, yes?) Its the unedited version, where Vincent is much less Vampy, and whatnot. Its kind of... in the first stages of editing. yep yep.

The second part will be awesome. There's angst, Fiana gets stalked, and kidnapped, a few people die... and so on. You know? It will be awesome.

When it gets serious enough to involve the police, one of the policemen ends up dying (he is eaten) and his body is not found. After a while of searching, He is given up as dead. Soon afterward Fiana is kidnapped by these young bloods, who, when Jeremy and DreadPaw show up, tell them that as revenge they are going to turn her, and place what they think of as a curse on her as well... Fiana wakes up, and the Bloods are outside, Will and Jeremy trying to get her back. She, given the chance, bolts out the door, just as one of the bloods pouces on Jeremy, whose decided to let them turn him into a blood (though he is already an aural). The other turns and guts the human girl on the spot. She lays dying as Jeremy is going through his change, and he pulls himself over to her, and changes her. This makes them both some weird Blood-Aural hybrid.

First Post!

Yep, here we go. First post. Woo...

I've always hated the first post. Maybe its because it seems like the first post will set the tone for the entire rest of the blog, and therefore will stick you in a rut of posts if you don't get it right, or will seem completely random and pointless if it has a completely different tone. Maybe its because the first post is supposed to reveal something about the blogger, about the way he/she thinks. Maybe. And maybe its just because I am bad at starting this kind of thing. I am bad at first meetings, and that is really what this feels like to me.

Now, if you're coming to my blog, great. If you don't like what you see... thats your problem and you should just leave. I'll probably use this the most for Character Bios and whatnot... which, by the way, are mine, copyright to me, and WILL NOT be used by anyone else under any circumstance unless I give the a-ok, which will require you to come to me first and ask formally.

Onto a less legal subject... I have the flu. It really sucks. I mean, sure, I've been home from school for the last two days, today marking the third sick day, and that MIGHT seem nice... until you consider that I am stuck home alone with a redneck brother whom I really don't feel safe around. Mind that my mom is some hour or more drive away and my dad is at work, which, to him, takes precedence over all else. I realize I'm probably wrong about this, but sometimes I seriously think I could call him at work and say "I just tripped and stabbed a kitchen knife through my hand!" and he'd respond "I'm sorry, I'm busy at work."

I've been noticing, actually, while sick that my iTunes library has this habit of playing the same 50ish songs over and over while on shuffle repeat. Something tells me its not really supposed to do that, but you know... Oh well. Its music I like in any case...

Alright, I'm off to slay the layout fiend and make my new and snazy blog look awesome. Yep.
