I saw that. I think that's amazing. We're going to do some kind of theme at some point, although I couldn't tell you what it'll be yet.

Like I said earlier, I'm going to work on a gothic outfit later.

Oh, you two are so silly with your stilted conversation. *snickers* Perhaps it'll be easier when both CZ and I are online to facilitate the conversation. Who is home, btw. We're starting to get ready to head out to K-town. I'll totally tell you that in the IM as well.

*yawn* Still tired from earlier.

We are back. Hurray! I am waiting with great anticipation to see CZ's post in our story arc. Not much excites me, but this I just have to see.

Lol, it's probably going to be a rather short post with him just popping his head into the archives and asking William, "So.. you called?"

I was going to ask you two something.. lemme reread the IM and figure out what it was. I got so distracted.

Do you think our conversations really sound forced or awkward? If that's the case, I definitely want to know so I can change it. I don't want to go around posting like that everywhere, no one would take me seriously. I'd die of embarrassment for sure at that point. *sad face*

You'll have to forgive me, my social writing skills are as lacking as my interpersonal skills sometimes. I often don't mean for my writing to sound so clipped. I've noticed that I talk that way too; it's an ongoing learning process for me to overcome that. As my speaking skills continue to improve hopefully my writing will reflect that.

In the mean time, I'm not apologizing to anyone for anything unless they personally deserve an apology from me.

Sometimes you two are very short and to the point with what you have to say but it's normally when you're distracted, multitasking or otherwise occupied. Which, y'know, is normal. So I don't think it's anything to worry about.

Also, I think it's an internet thing for you two. I find our conversations IRL to be full and captivating which means it's probably the medium and not you two which causes your conversation to be stilted.

Awww, Scribbled you're gonna make me blush. "Captivating"? Really? That's awfully sweet of you. <3

Wow. Thanks. I appreciate that. We'll have to see if that changes when you and I start having conversations. Hopefully I won't have to try too hard, since you don't think I'm weird. >_>

I know this is really random, but I'd really love to watch some Samurai Champloo some time. Would you be interested S.L.? Whatcha think? I can't wait to watch some more Death Note with you. ^__^

I can straight up tell you I'm going be all awkward and "Crap, what do I say?" the first couple of times, BD. (Are you okay with using first names on Menewsha? I generally go by my initials, SL.) Without PR as a mediator or medium I'm going to be a lot more worried about offending you. (Because I totally realize I have an abrasive personality.)

I'd like to see more of Samurai Champloo. I didn't get to watch a lot of the premier airing on Adult Swim when it came out in high school cos I was busy with a boyfriend and since then I've never caught the beginning - only middle episodes with plot arcs I don't understand.

I rememember watching Samurai Champloo. I think it would be 100x better in Japanese. I hate dubs. >_<

I'd also like to see more like Elfen Lied and High School of(for?) the Dead. I can't ever remember the proper article but I know it's of or for. It's basically zombie outbreak at a Japanese high school. I'd love to see more. I really like dark, horror themed anime. It has to be drawn well too, or I tend to hate the crap out of it.

If you're ok with first names, I'm of with it. There's a ton of people out there with my name, I'm sure.

Elfen Lied is delicious. Perhaps Bi Dude will let us borrow it sometime. :D

Can you link to the zombie one?

That's the one. It is "of" in the middle. We both really enjoyed it. Parts of it were pretty scary, as animated stuff go. I definitely want more stuff like that. I can't get enough.

Oh my god, yeah! It the scariest anime I've seen in a long time. In fact, it's the reason I went back to watching anime. I had lost some serious faith in it of late. I mean, seriously there are animes out there with 400+ episodes, and that is just way too many. *shakes head*

AnimeSeed

That's where CZ and I watch our anime. There was a series you wanted to find - Revolutionary Girl Utena, right? - without dubs.

YES! I absolutely adored what I have seen of the series and have this weird need to watch it now and see if I still think it's awesome. I will so bookmark that site. I need more strong female characters in my life. *goes to bookmark it*

Tamora Pierce's books are full of strong willed women and girls. *hint, hint*

I'll look into her books someday, I swear I will. I just need to finish the Dresden Files first. At this rate it'll be a year before I can. Stupid hardcovers costing twenty something dollars. Why have you forsaken me, paperback gods? Why!?

As a side note, I didn't know Abbadon spoke Greek. I figured he knew another language, but Greek wouldn't have been the first one that came to mind. Wow. I'm looking forward to seeing how William responds. I think this is going to be interesting.

I am a little nervous about the reactions they're going to have to each other, but I like reading about Abbadon so I can't wait. I'm excited that we're really getting started. Hurray! ^___^

Why are you nervous about the reactions?

I dunno. It just seems like it would be a volitile situation. Then again, I imagine that none of them have any intention of acting too rashly. It wouldn't benefit them, after all.

I think it would have more to do with the younger of the two realizing how outmatched he was; and since the older one doesn't have any reason NOT to kill him, it'd be best not to give him one to do so. IMO.

I just wanted to backtrack for a second and say that I understand that interactions with me might be awkward at first but I don't think it'll be of such magnitude that we can't have a good time. Just remember, my sister and I are alike in many ways, as most twins are. Besides, I keep my hands(and various other things) to myself. I happen to like you, so we won't be starting off as strangers. I think we should go somewhere and have some nice warm drinks or tea and some pastries. That sounds awesome to me.
