   NYARGH!!!!!

(Thanks to Magnus Lensherr, for giving me that site! I LOVE YOU!!!!! ::BIIIG HUG!!!!:: Okay, for some bizarre reason, the colour change buttons aren't working, so I had to put down random stuff. (I have no idea what colour this'll turn out to be...)Hope it's not one I don't like. Anyways, until it decides to not be a ding-head, this is gonna have to do for now. ;_; You likey the new backround? If you look carefully, you can see cat eyes in the trees. Nifty, no? Anyways, not much has happened. I'm halfway through with Hemingway, I'm trying to finish it by Wednesday so I can get to work on the Beauty fanfic. While I'm on that subject, I have some things to run by you guys... 1. In the story, Beauty's real name is Honour. When she was little, she asked her father what her name meant, and when he tried to explain, she said "Huh! I'd rather be called Beauty." thus the name. She's rarely ever called Honour. I'm trying to decide whether I should have Kagome be called Beauty throughout the whole thing too, or to have her be called Kagome and only called Beauty every so often. (I'm leaning more towards the latter.) 2. Beauty has two older sisters, Grace and Hope. (I'm almost certain Hope's the middle child..) Sango is obviously going to play one of them, and I'm trying to decide who should be the other one. (I'm not going to use a villain, like Kagura, or Kikyou, because I just can't think good of her.) I'm thinking about using Kirara as a human...What do you think? Or should I use another character? I also debated Koharu, but she wasn't there for very long, and I didn't like her much. 3. Grace, being the oldest and I think who I'm going to replace as Sango,gets engaged, but her fiancee is lost at sea. (He was working for their father, who is a highly successful merchant.) So, if I DO use Sango for Grace's part, her fiancee will be, of course, Miroku. Hope also becomes engaged, and married, and if I do use Kirara, who would her fiancee be? 4. Who should play their father? (I may have to use Myouga-jiji, but I really don't want to...) 5. Beauty owns a horse named Greatheart, which also, in my opinion, plays an important role in the story. Who should her horse be? (I read in one version of a Beauty and the Beast Inu fic that Kirara was the horse, and Naraku's (playing Gaston) was Kanna, lol. ) 6. Should Inu-Yasha play the Beast in his hanyou form or his youkai form? This is all opinionated. I'm almost positive of who I want to use for most of the parts, but I still want to know what you guys think. Your opinions mean a lot to me. Oh, and also, there is no Gaston figure in this version. If there were, Kouga'd get the part. Well, I may add him in, but I'm not a Kouga fan. Kikyou may or may not show her emo face in the story, I may add parts, for I will also omit things, change them around, the necessary changes. ::Hugs everyone:: If you have any other ideas, especially if you've read this version, feel free to share!(It's by Robin McKinley.) PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT ABOUT YOUR OPINION! I WANT TO KNOW WHAT YOU GUYS LIKE, ESPECIALLY YOU, ELVSIE!!!! THIS IS YOUR DEDICATION FIC! (Sry, I capitalized to get your guys' attention, lol) "First, what this book is not--it is not a slam, bam action book or gigantic doorstopper epic. What it is--a wonderful romantic retelling of the fairy tale Beauty and the Beast. A widower has three daughters, Grace, Hope, and Honour. As a young child, Honour decides that her name is boring and states she would rather be Beauty, and the nickname stuck with her. Kindly Grace and Hope grow up into great beauties, but Beauty grows into a gawky ugly duckling, little concerned with her looks, but proud of her intelligence and way with horses. They all live happily in the city until disastor strikes and they lose almost all their possessions. They move to the country next to a mysterious old forest and as years pass become used to hard work and the peasant life. Beauty thrives, but still suffers from low self esteem. Then their father goes back to the city to check on one of his lost ships and when he returns, brings her a beautiful rose. You know the story--he met the Beast who demanded one of his daughters in exchange for the father's life, because he dare to pluck the rose. Beauty volunteers to got to the Beast, taking only her warhorse turned plowhorse, Great Heart. She meets the Beast and encounters all the mysteries of his strange castle and invisible servants, some fearful and some wondrous. A sweet and charming romance ensues as the Beast asks her every night for her hand in marriage. The author really makes the character of Beauty come to life--her wry, self-deprecating humor, her love of nature and books, her wonder, and sometimes fear of, the magic surrounding her, the gentle changing and unfolding of her feelings about the Beast. And the Beast is just as wonderful, you can feel his sad yearning for love, his hard-earned wisdom, his patience with Beauty and her fears, his strength and temper and sorrow. There is wit and humor, sadness and joy." -Quoted from Amazon.com. (Obviously, with Inu-Yasha playing the Beast, I have to change that role around considerably, lol. He's not going to ask her every night to marry him, he's much too shy about that.) Have you noticed my "subtle" hints for you to go and READ THIS FANTASTIC BOOK?! Lol If you like reading, you'l love this, if you like the story, you'l love this, if you don't like either, don't worry about it, no one's pushing you. ^_^ I'm sorry this is all I've been talking about in this post, but I truly love this book. It's my favourite!! I've never had a favourite book before. Also, it's my favourite Disney movie. http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/P/0064404773.01._AA240_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg Love you guys!! AMV of the Day: Beauty and the Beast(C'mon, you had to have seen that coming, lol!) XOXOXOXO Kaolla
