Well. Despite the fact that I never upload a damned thing, and I'm not even here much anymore, I have a little under 3,000 pageviews. And should I hit 3,000, I think I will draw something for whoever hits that mark. Although no one ever lets me know when they get cool numbers for my pageviews... Nonetheless!

Also, I may soon be doing some art work and such for Anime Boston. That will be fun.

This sounds fun. I think I'll do it.

1.) Make 100 pics each pic having a theme listed below. Each pic should have ONE and only ONE theme to it, for it to count.

Choose twelve of your original characters in any particular order (NO PEEKING AT THE QUESTIONS AT THIS STAGE!). Then, answer the questions that follow and don’t forget to tag a couple of people when you’re finished.

1. Gabriel
2. Tavorian Edwards
3. Kreylen Th’uul
4. Erik Menner
5. Jarik von Bastel
6. Merithid Allmech
7. Clive Beckett
8. Liam Graves
(This is sad. Right about here I’m having trouble thinking of my own characters. I’m over-tired. You people should have seen me try and remember all fifty states today. I even forgot Connecticut.)
9. Rokuro Nanashi
10. Atticus
(Stuck again. I actually started looking through my own DA account to try and find some.)
11. Kozen Kogunfuntou
12. Shiina

01) Who would make a better college professor, 6 or 11? What subjects would they teach?
Oh god. I’m not sure either of these would be a good idea… I’m gonna say Kozen. He has a little more patience with people, and he does have a student… As for what he’d teach… Well, he’s my samurai character, so let’s put him in a Japanese school, and make him the kendo instructor.

02) Do you think 2 is hot? How hot?
Well, no… Because that’s a guy, and I’m straight, so… That’s ruined, then.

03) 12 sends 8 on a mission. What is it, and does it succeed?
Umm… I can’t imagine Shiina sending someone out on a serious mission, but she works in a bar, and Liam’s Irish, so I imagine he’d do it… Let’s say, go save that kitten from that tree, he might fall! And he might succeed, but he’d be scratched to hell. Cats don’t like Liam.

04) What is or would be 9’s favorite book?
Interesting question… My guess is that he’d read a lot of books on talismanic magic, (some versions of the Book of the Dead, I suppose) or as for fiction, just anything non-violent with a happy ending. Poor little weirdo.

05) Would it make more sense for 2 to swear fealty to 6, or the other way around?
…Ugh. Well, Tavorian is extremely loyal to the few friends he has, so if they became friends somehow, I suppose in a way that makes sense, but… I dunno, Merithid just doesn’t like people telling him what to do. Neither of them does, but… Bleh. That would not work at all.

06) For some reason, 5 is looking for a roommate. Should he share a studio apartment with 9 or with 10?
I’d say Bast would want to stay with Rokuro… They’d get along decently, I imagine, and Bast hates anyone who seems snotty to him. Atticus can come off that way easily enough.

07) 2, 7 and 12 have dinner together. Where do they go, and what do they discuss?
Oh god… XD Shiina would surely warm up to Clive pretty easily, but Tavorian would be pretty silent the entire time. As for where they go? The inn down the street from the bar Shiina works in. It’s ironically her favorite place.

08) 3 challenges 10 to a duel. What happens?
Hey, that’d be pretty cool! Atticus would definitely accept, and I think he’d win pretty hands-down. Kreyl’s awfully good, and I do mean awfully good, and the energy-blade thing would be quite helpful, but Atticus is just unreasonable.

09) If 1 stole 8’s most precious possession, how would she/he get it back?
Finally, two characters in the same world… I can’t imagine Gabe stealing something from Liam, but if such a thing were to happen, he’d probably ask for it back. But.. you know… If he got really upset about it, surely Maille would take over Liam’s body, and then… Well, last time they fought, a lot of stuff got broken.

10) Suggest a title for a story in which 7 and 12 both attain what they most desire.
Glory’s Shield

11) What kind of plot device would you use if you wanted 4 and 1 to work together?
They already do work together, all the time. ^^ In fact, those two are very close friends, despite their bickering! They have a fairly common cause, even if Gabe doesn’t understand why, exactly.

12) If 7 visited you for the weekend, how would you get along?
Oh hell, we’d get along great. Both of us artists and all, stuff to talk about.

13) If you could command 3 to perform any one task or service for you, what would it be?
Well, I have this list of people, see… Not that I think he’d be that interested in such a job. Ooh! I think I’d just have him teach me to create his energy blades. Or barring that, at least how to use a sword like he does.

14) Does anyone on your friends list write or draw 11?
Umm… Nope. But Dylan’s brother Derrick colored him for me ages ago.

15) If 2 had to choose sides between 4 and 5, which would it be?
Tavorian would go with Bast, definitely. It’s a similar job, but with money involved, and he wouldn’t have to hear about Erik’s God at all.

16) What might 10 shout while charging into battle?
Atticus might just speak softly, going into battle. He’s oddly modest, but still, he’s likely to say something like, “It’s time that your life ended. Goodbye.” Or, “For my Mistress,” or something.

17) If you chose a song to represent 8, which song would you choose?
Ooh! I know this one! The Sickness, by Disturbed.

18) 1, 6, and 12 are having dim sum at a Chinese restaurant. There is only one scallion pancake left, and they all reach for it at the same time. Who gets to eat it?
Well, Gabe would allow Shiina to take it, but I’m not sure Merithid would drop it so easily… I bet Shiina would still get it from him though.

20) What would 5 most likely be arrested for?
Assault. Resisting arrest.
…Assaulting a police officer. In that order.

21) What is 6’s secret?
He’s almost 700 years old. People don’t do well with that sort of information, since he’s a human.

22) If 11 and 9 were racing to a destination, who would get there first?
Wow… Um…. I don’t know. I really, truly don’t know.


23) If you had to walk home through a bad neighborhood late at night, would you feel safer in the company of 7 or 8?
…Umm… Well, let’s see… Clive can defend himself to some degree… But Liam is half-demon. And… I think that would be “acceptable Maille-use.” So I’ll say him.

24) 1 and 9 reluctantly team up to save the world from the threat posed by 4’s sinister secret organization. 11 volunteers to help them, but it is later discovered that he/she is actually a spy for 4. Meanwhile, 4 has kidnapped 12 in an attempt to force their surrender. Following the wise advice of 5, they seek out 3 , who gives them what they need to complete their quest.

…My head… >.O Okay. Why the crap is my priest evil? Alright, whatever. *cracks his knuckles* So. For some reason, Erik is a might evil now. That being, Gabe feels it is necessary to take him down. He meets young Rokuro, who wants to help. Gabe doesn’t think much of Rokuro at first, but when he first sees him in action, decides he could use the help. The somewhat famous swordsman Kozen meets them, and agrees that Erik needs to be stopped. But just as they’re getting close, Kozen betrays them, having been working for Erik (also inexplicably evil now, I guess) all along! *gasp* Erik kidnaps Shiina, (who… you know, neither of them know…) but they aren’t willing to give up yet. They seek out Bast, (Who… You know, DOES know Shiina, and would probably be the one to go off and Save Shiina… He’s a real badass like that) who says, “Here is where you can find my old friend Kreyl. He should be able to help. (I wonder why I can’t…)” So they find Kreyl, and he offers them a powerful elven weapon from his home, which they promptly use to save Shiina, kill Erik, and kill Kozen HORRENDOUSLY for his betrayal. The end.

…What the crap.

Igmore this, it's reference for Sam.

....I feel like drawing Brave Fencer Musashi fanart. Huh. Maybe just video game art as a whole. Probably because of the video game remixes I'vebeen listening to of late.
