Thanks. ^^ <3
People do tell me about my different style of drawing. I dunno. It's a mix from anime-ish and something more realistic, I guess? 8DD;;

And actually, I only plan on auctions for colored pieces. ^^;; I don't have a lot of time for them, you see. My art shop will probably only sell sketches. Think like the Glammy2 pic, but without the texture. ^^;; Those are a lot faster to do for me. xDD;;

XD" I don't know. Just when I saw it, I immediately thought of children's books. =)

Oh, that's a shame (for me because I have no money for auction)! XDD"

I shall take that as a compliment then. :> Even though the characters are... not exactly ideal for any sort of children's books... xDD;;

And aww, I'm touched that you would even consider buying art from me, if ever. :3 There's always bribes and sketches though? 8DD;; And I'll be more prone to accepting commissions for colored pieces come April and May, since that's summer vacation for me. xDD;; Well, I do have summer classes, but they're not real classes exactly, so, yeah. ^^;; <3

Oh pshaw. Some of the things they put in "children's stories" are most unfit for young minds.

Bribes and sketches? 8DD" I actually thought summer classes are harder because they rush you through the course syllabus. But maybe that's just here. =3

Lolz! xDD;; Well, can't argue with that. ^^;; I remember that time in my English literature class when we analyzed fables and fairytales. It was a most enlightening experience. 8DD;;

And oh! The classes I'm taking for the summer aren't real classes, you see. =P They're something like required extra-curricular activities that every student must do before reaching their second year in the university. Usually it's charity work, but I don't know what it is this year. =)

So yeah, not stressful~ xDD;; <3<3

Yes, they're a lot more horrific/morbid than most people realize...well, until Disney sugarcoated them, that is. XD"

Ah, that's nice. We had that in my matriculation program too, a community service requirement. =) Well, sounds like a nice summer for you then. <3

Lolz! xDD;; Reminds me of the Lion King though, suddenly. =\ Have you seen that screenshot where there's a very... not innocent picture in the sky? xDD;;

And yeah, I hope that the department/college handling this year's summer classes has a fun activity. =P I wouldn't want to waste my summer, after all. 8DD;;

I haven't, but I've been told about it. One of my previous roommates has a similar class. 8D"

Well, you'd still fill the requirement, so it wouldn't quite be a waste, but it'd totally blow if it were boring. XD"

You should check it out then, if you want~ 8DD;;

And yeah, agreed. =\ I want rappelling again, if possible. xDD;; Or this thing we call Gawad Kalinga, where we help build houses. :3 I never thought I would build houses in my life before this organization came and asked for help. They're a very inspirational group. :3 <3

XDD" I'd rather be watching Kuroshitsuji and/or Zombie-Loan. :lol:

Oh, that sounds interesting. What parts of the house-building do you get to do?

Lolz. xDD;; Fine then? 8DD;;

And I got to do almost everything before. :3 I've gone to about three or four meetings, after all. I've mixed cement, painted walls, sawed rods for the foundation, passed around and laid down bricks, and... other stuff? I can't remember all right now. ^^;;

It's real hard work, but it's SO fulfilling. :3 Especially since you do it with either people you know (if it's a school activity) or with the nicest people. =) And you even get to meet the people you're building houses for, which makes everything worth it in itself. :>

I'm about to change my mind about Zombie-Loan. The summary for the ending looks unbearably het.

Oh, that does sound really cool. Seems like a great experience. =D

Lolz. xDD;; There are a lot of other shows to watch though, if you want~ :3

And yeah, it is. ^^ <3<3
Do you have something like it over there? =O <3

I'm guessing it exists if I really want to look for it, but I haven't seen anything of the sort being publicized yet, so I really don't know. =3

*pulls thread back to first page*

Zombie-Loan is, generally viewed as a het story, hence I'm not too surprised by the ending.
It's not the cover of the series, but the content which determines how het (or not) the series want to be. xD

Yay for the revival of Xiel's thread! 8DD;; <3<3

Hello, Ryl.
Interesting look you have going on for your avi.
Why the dark face? xD

Hihi Iroro~ =D <3

And OH! This is for Project Mene. xDD;; My theme is electricity. =O So, I'm playing around with my inventory. ^^;; I would never wear something like this if I had it my way. ^^;; But, yeah. xDD;;

Does it seem electric enough? =\

Yay gonna go see slumdog in a little bit, how you doing?

Actually, if you've watched it by now, Zombie-Loan doesn't actually get any straighter towards the end. The summary sounds straighter, but when you watch it, as Thrance says, the girl just gets more forgettable in light of how incredibly gay the main pairing gets.

"It's hot! I can feel it. He's close!"
I think my brain died. Seriously. Besides, if I'm going to pick someone to pair the girl with, I'd pick the plushie!Shinigami. XD"

@Crystalunicorn: Oh, I heard it won a lot of awards. Tell me how it is when you've watched it. XD" I went to see Watchmen yesterday.

@Rylynne: Well, I'm guessing you changed it already, since it doesn't look very electric anymore. XD"

@Rylynne:
Actually, I find this one giving off a more 'electricity' feel as compared to the previous one.
Because you had a dark purple background with thunder earlier, you were adding dark colours to your avatar to match.
In my opinion, for an energy such as electricity, your avatar must SPARK or at least produce the crackly light most people associate electrity with.
Right now, your avatar is too 'tame.
Associate electric with what it IS as an essence, not just what you think it looks like, if that helps? :)

@Luenola Marxiel:
lol I've never read past the first two books anyway. xD

Ah, Rylynne changed it again. I agree; this looks quite electric. XD"

Maybe I should pick up the manga. 8D"

Thanks for the opinions, you two~ :3 <3<3 They're very much appreciated. =D

I think I'll be sticking to this base for my final entry, since I don't have enough time to mix any more ideas. AND, more importantly, I don't have enough goldies to fund my other ideas anymore. xDD;; I mean, I still am questing for stuff, after all. 8DD;; Can't be going overboard. >.>;;

Any more advice though? ^^;; I dunno what to do with it anymore. D: And if I should get rid of the blues. >.>;; They're for the benefit of the New Years Hairpin, mostly. xDD;; <3<3

This is just my personal opinion, but I feel like there's too much gold/yellow for the electricity look. Unless you mean in the light bulb sense... The blue should stay because lightning comes off looking like a blue light, but again, this is just me. =3

The golds and yellows are more for a light kind of feel. =O I wanted to go for something that pops and stuff. So, yeah, kind of like the light bulb sense. ^^;;

And okies then, thankies for your opinion then~ =D <3<3

Btw, your avatar is girlier than usual? =O Lolz, just can't help but notice it. xDD;; <3<3
