This week's update. I just came a across a new series. After watching the first episode and hearing some familiar voices, I have decided that I will watch the series, Chrono Crusade.






Funniest Pandora Hearts scene (so far):

Oz and Raven were in the main room of Raven's house discussing what happened at the old Bezarius grounds.

Raven:"Are you okay?"

He flicks Oz on the head.

Raven:"You seemed a little strange back there."

Oz:"I'm fine. It's just that..."

Meanwhile in the other room Alice finally wakes up and sits up in bed. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary.

Oz:"...the white rabbit..."

Suddenly, Break slides out form under the edge of the bed with his doll Emily in tow with a creepy smile frozen on his face.

Oz:"...was uncanny and scary."

Alice looks over the edge and just sees Break laying there with that smile. Not exactly the first thing she expected, or wanted, to see when waking up.

A slight sceam came out from the room.

Alice:"Eeeeeee!"

Oz and Raven hear the sound of things breaking and Alice yelling.

Alice:"What are you doing, you damn clown!!!"

Break:"Good morning."

Alice:"Die!"

Oz just chuckles a little.

Oz:"Alice is awake."

Raven runs over to the room and sees it completely destroyed. He is trying very hard not to hurt someone in particular right now.

Break:"My, my, how mean. Even though I made a point to come here myself and see how the two of them were doing..."

Raven:"So come in normally..."




***FEATURES!!!!

is an astounding artist I met some time ago on DA. As a fellow aspiring comic/manga writer and artist, I have watched her style and skills grow and transform into what they are today. She also wishes to work with me on the comic, but I will have to wait and see what happens first.

Some of my personal favoirtes of her work are:

***Requests"

1. 1st place request (All three in one.) Me, her, and :animeruler100:
2. 2nd place request
3. 2nd place request
4. 3rd place request Maka and Break



I have decided to fill the time by working on a Fan Fiction of the series, Black Cat. I am calling it "Black Cat: After Eden" or Black Cat A.E. for short.


I have recived good reviews on the "Origin of Nexidal" comic I made. People are all asking the same question: "What will happen when he meets his traitorous commander again?" I have decided to answer this in the form of a comic. And to players of the DNKI game, don't worry. The game is always running when I have the request system shut down.


Now hear this. The Death Note Kira Investigation game (or DNKI game for short) is now open to everyone who wishes to play. This is a massive, multi-branching story, situational game based loosely around the Kira investigation from the series, Death Note. All who wish to play must, and I repeat MUST, comment in this journal telling me they wish to play. There are many different characters from many different series that are involed in this game and it is different for everyone. What happens to them, the investigation team, and yourself is all up to what YOU do in the game.

All characters in this game (c) to their respective series.

*Note: All who are already playing outside of this journal do NOT need to transfer over. It's too much of a mess to handle.*

The Request System is now OPEN again. I am still going to work on the comic but I need soemthing to keep me drawing constantly so I re-opened the sysytem.



*Family*

Lauren Bane: Her father (Nathan Bane). Her mother (Natalie Bane, The country of Katen's first female soldier) was taken from her by the Great War when Lauren was about 2.

Nancy Icari: Her father (Bartholemew Icari) died in the Great War. Her mother (Lucia Icari) is the only family she has left.

Nade Lunaru: None Whatsoever. And if he has any family, he doesn't care to know.

???: Since this person's true identity is unknown to any one, his family is also unkown.

Derek Jerome: His immediate family (mother {Liliane Jerome} and father {Mathew Jerome}) were both claimed by Paul Senku in the Great War. He had one other member of family, but I won't say as of yet.

Paul Senku: Killed both his mother (Jennifer Senku) and father (Kevin Senku) at age 10 because he wanted to have no one interfere with his military plot.



*Fun Facts 2*

1.Lauren Bane was originally born with the name "Laura". She changed it "Lauren" when she ws 8 years old out of her own volition.

2.Nancy Icari first received a magic staff as a birthday gift when she was 7 years old. There have been some major modifications from its original state. She may not look it, but she is a very skilled craftswoman.

3.Nade Lunaru created his hair style. It was made as a combination of the styles of his two childhood inspirations: The man who raised him (Paul senku when he was still a general) and their army's strongest soldeir at the time (a man named Zain Chiles).

4.General Derek Jerome lost more than blood in the Great War. Something very dear to him.

5.No one knows ???'s true identity.


6.Paul Senku joined the military at the age of 23 and hit the title of general by the age of 34.


*Formal Ocassion Wear*

Lauren Bane: a red and pink dress that used to belong to her departed mother. She uses these occasions as one of the few times she can let her hair down to its full length.

Nancy Icari: White gown, pure as snow. She only bought it recently.

Nade Lunaru: None whatsoever. He hates formal ocassion and stays away from them.

General Jerome: A a royal blue and white outfit he wore when he was firts knighted as a general.

Paul Senku: His king's robes. He doesn't join these ocassion, just oversees them.

???: Can't say. It would be a spoiler.


*"Bane" Character Fun Facts*

1.Lauren Bane was not born with the black scar. The reason behind it is the reason she wants to be a soldier so much.

2.Nancy Icari wants her hair to be that long. It has been that way for 4 years now. She uses magic to cut it if it gets too long.

3.Nade Lunaru's military upbringing is what caused him to be so cold and ruthless. He also does not monologue well as he often has trouble giving speeches to his soldiers.

4.??? is infamous not just within the borders of Katen, but the entire continent because of what he does. His chivalrous ways are well know. (yes he is a he)

5.Derek Jerome first used his current weapon 37 years ago. It was the first sword he ever owned and has had it ever since.

6.Paul Senku often commended his soldiers when he was a general. He had planned his ascention to the title of king for 6 years before finally doing so.



*Catch Phrase:

Lauren Bane:"It's not a good idea to underestimate just because I'm a girl."

Nancy Icari:"We look inside ourselves at what's most important and find that it inspires us to go beyond our limits."

Nade Lunaru:"People are so easy to control. All one needs to do is instill the fear of death in their minds and they will do anything you want."

???:"No lady shall be harmed as long as I still breathe!"

Derek Jerome:"Stay alive. Look to those around you in battle for guidance and protect each other."

Favorite Mythical Detective Loki Ragnarok Scene:

Freya gets close to Loki. She knows in her mind her that she will soon complete her mission for Lord Odin when...

BOOM!!!

A cloud of smoke that was created clears with Frey and Gullinbursti as its core.

Frey:"Grr! You see Gullinbursti, this isn't the seaside park! I told you we should have drilled East when we passed that graveyard."

Freya:"Frey?!"

Freya slowly and angrily rises behind Frey, unknown to him.

Frey:"I wanted to an evening on the beach where I could recall memories of my poor lost sister, but we might as well toss that plan into the ocean thanks to you!"

Freya was quickly losing her patience and her temper.

Frey:"I can't take it any more! What I wouldn't give just to hear my sister's cheerful voice one more time..."

Freya:"Big brother!!!"

Frey:"Yes, like that. Cheerfully calling me her big brother."

Freya:"Look at the mess you made you worthless idiot!!!!"

Frey:"Oh yes! It could be something like that. 'Look at the mess you made you worthless idiot.' Huh?"

Frey suddenly spun around to see Freya standing there with an expression that read anger all over it. Frey, in his stupidity, turns back around.

Frey:"What a superb hallucination! It looks just like her."

Freya had all she could stand. She snapped her fingers and a empty metal cake pan fell on Frey's head causing him to momentarily fall down.

Freya:"It is me, moron!"

Frey was stunned by both joy and the pain from that pan. He was speechless. Unfortunately, it was only for a second.

Frey:"What's that? Are you for real? I mean really for real? For real?"

Freya:"Words were never your strong point, were they? You fool, I was so close. I almost had Loki but you ruined it!"

Frey:"What!? Loki?! Where is he?"

Freya:"Huh? He's gone! Where did Loki go?"

Freya began to look around franticaly. It seemed Loki took the opportunity to make his escape in the confusion.

Frey:"Oh well. All that matters is my beloved little sister Freya is back! Brother and sister reunited at long last! Let's express our tremendous joy on this occasion with a big hug."

Freya:"Loki!?"

Freya ran off to look for Loki, leaving Frey there by himself. To make sure he didn't follow her, she made not one, not two, but seven of the empty cake pans fall on his head in succesion.

Frey, in pain and steam coming off him, could only make one remark.

Frey:"It's so good to see my little sister again. So full of vim and vigor after all these-"

Frey was cut off abrubtly by a last pan falling on his head edge first.

Frey, as he was fainting:"The edge always hurts the most..."

And now the song of the week.




"Radical Dreamers - Unstolen Jewel" by Yasunori Mistuda and Noriko Mitose



Lyrics:


Osanai te ni tsutsunda furueteru sono hikari wo
Koko made tadotte kita jikan no fuchi wo samayoi

Sagashitsudzukete kita yo namae sae shiranai keredo
Tada hitotsu no omoi wo anata ni tewatashitakute

Toki ha ai mo itami mo fukaku dakitome
Keshiteku kedo watashi ha oboete iru
Zutto...

Watashi no mune no oku ni itsu kara ka hibiite ita...
Yotsuyu no shizuku yori mo kasuka na sasayaki dakedo

Itetsuku hoshi no yami he tsumugu inori ga
Tooi anata no sora ni todoku you ni...
