map
So, this is our Epic world map. This is only half the world. The other half is the demon half so we don't have to worry about it. It's like a big cold dead marsh thing though if you wanted to know. If not, then ignore that statement. This is the only thing I've draw I'm proud of, that's a little sad.
Um, the way they got the country boarders was tying paint to the feet of their drunks and sending them out. It's called the wavy line system. And that 'Z' between Plyash and Milano is Zephyr.

finals
Finals next week, so no internet for me. I'm tired of chasing myself around in a circle, I've got to do something. The only thing in front of me is right now is the finals, so I'm going to rage a full on attack. I need freedom and I'm going to shred anything that stands in my way of getting that.
So, that sounds sort of...harsh or crazy, or something. It just doesn't sound very light. This will be the only time I say that so no worries. I don't think the web is a place for complaining about such things as freedom. Parents, school, boys, friends, enemies, television, anything else, but not freedom. It's too complecated.
Um, so, Astronomy will be no sweat. I can do one of those and get a 'C' easy. If I want a higher grade, which I hate to say it but I do, I'll have to open the book. I haven't opened the stupid book for the entire semester. It feels horrible to try at school.
Algebra is going to be hard, just because I can't take math tests. I'm going to have to do work. Agh, that feels terrible.
I should do good on the Biology test and I might pull a decent grade on the poster, but the lab write-up will be difficult. I'm sort of smart, so I skip everything and just get the conclusion right away. Studying there.
English I've got to write a bit, read part of it out loud, and revise an older bit. This is going to be my most difficult final. Write a bit I'm never going to see again, in a week! They're out of their minds. I'll probably just make up a short story of sorts and inject one of my storyless characters. Maggie's one I've been wanting to write but I've already got a background for him. I could always do Mica but that'd probably scare the prof. Ah, Mica, what a sadistic freak. If I stick with Maggie then I could bring in Innit for a breif support and even mention the devil, Dice. I might do that since it doesn't have to be the real fact by fact backstory.
In Epic news, I'm almost done with my last Zephyrian noble family, the ow'Zawsze. They're not a bad bunch, but there's something about them that sort of creeps me out. I don't know what though.
Well, have a good two weeks. I'll see you when I see you.

I woke up at 14:00. I wasted they entire day so we didn't get any work done on Epic. Well, I didn't get any done. They could be doing stuff and I just don't know yet.
I pulled a couple names, flipped a penny a few times, and gave the die a roll. That was all my work for the day. I work in odd ways when it comes to trees and backs.
Here's my example: You have a man named Adit. You roll the die and get a three. You flip a penny three times; heads, tails, heads. Adit has three children; Myles (son), Drea (daughter), Gad (son). It gets more complicated when you try to do their life span and stuff like that, but you get the idea. The worse thing that can happen when building a family tree is getting sixes. I hate getting sixes. Actually, with this family it started with the one guy, then a five, then another five, then a three, then another three. That three didn't work out so it went to a one.
Family trees and family history are fairly easy. You don't get much of that when you see the actual characters, it's just stuff the creators have to know. We've got to know a lot, it's annoying and cool at the same time.
OH! I got the map from Unsaid works! I've missed my map so much. I'll put it up later for everyone. We don't have all the countries named still. It's the only thing I've ever drawn that I was proud of.

I got up early to finish Biology but it only took me half an hour. Man, it's going to be a really long day. This is the first Friday since break ended, and the last Friday I had classes we didn't have Biology and we got out really early in Astronomy. We've got double the work in Astronomy tonight. I hate that class.
Ah, Van Halen makes it better. You got to love rock music. I wish I was a teenager when all these came out, but then I'd be old now. That'd be gross, me all old. Ew.
I hope we don't go outside for Astronomy. It's really nice out, no clouds, but it's cold. And I personally don't want to stand outside for half an hour trying to see stars and constillations. We're pretty much in town, they're going to have to accept that. Huh, this station has been playing Hells Bells everyday. Probably because it starts cool.
Oh, I remember one time, well all the time, when we go outside for Astronomy. I'd randomly point to an area of the sky and say, 'look, it's Cassiopia'. So, from then on only I could "see" Cassiopia at first but after I pointed it out everyone saw it. Human minds are funny that way.
You know that stupid little game people play when they try to get to know each other, that thing where you say three things but one's fake and they have to guess which one? I LOVE THIS SONG! Sorry, it just started. But, yeah, for some reason I was thinking of that early this morning (insomnia's weird) and I think I have enough stuff for one or two rounds that would be like 'oh, no way'. Too bad they didn't do that for English. The first day of English the just made you say your name and repeat everyone's. I hate that. I didn't sleep at all the night before since that's when my insomnia was at the worst. I would stop and ask for the first letter of their name, then the second, then the third. They usually just said their name again after that.
The stupid little game thing could've been fun though. This class is so crazy. My three would've been; I was accused of murder, I've had a black bear drool all over my arm, I was a drug cartel back east. Well, obviously the last one's fake, but I think they would've gone with the first. I don't know many other people who were accused of murder. High school rumors, they're a pain. I guess I'm a bit proud of that rumor though. The other girls had rumors about what they were doing with boys, people thought I was a killer. I did hate being the smart one in a school of idiots. I probably talked about this before. Oh, but I didn't explain the bear. When I was younger I went to one of the Carolinas for a few days, I think it was South Carolina. I went to this park thing and these keepers where bottle feeding two black bear cubs. So, being a kid, I went over to the rail and one of the keepers let me pet the...I think boy cub, on the back. So, I was petting him, but then he ran out of formula. So he twisted around and started sucking and motoring all over my arm. I said it was fine, so the other keeper brought the sister over and I had both of them doing it. He was climbing up my arm and she was sucking on my hand. It was cute until they stopped and I realised I was covered in spit and formula. They were little bears, no teeth.
Yeah, I think that's all for today. New hour long Avatar, that's something to look forward to after this long day. Good weekend.

Wow, I've got no idea what's going on with me. I've been dead tired all week. I think it's because I just came off break. I just can't seem to move around or anything. I just sit here in my large chair, listening to rock music and eatting fudge frosting. I should be getting a sugar rush and then crashing, but no rush. I wish there was other food around I could eat. I was getting a steak all ready to eat. It would've been done by Sunday, but my idiot brother and stupid father ate it. They didn't like it, too much vinigar, but, duh, it wasn't near ready. I didn't get to add anything else. Stupid, I needed that meat. That's most of my diet but they don't have great meat here, which I find odd. You'd think I'd gain weight now that my diet is all sugar but I'm losing weight. Well, hopefully not anymore, but I dropped like twenty pounds since I moved here. I wouldn't care if most of that hadn't been muscel. My playing weight (ice hockey) was 124lbs. I could bench ninty with my arms, two hundred with my legs, and about one thirty with my back and shoulders. I still looked pretty scrawny too. I find it more fun to be strong but not look it. I surprised a lot of peole the first time I ever fought because I looked like this little princess but could put you on your back in a hit. I, um, wasn't the nice person I am now when I was younger.
Well, enough about all that. I had to cheat on my homework to get it done. I'm so out of it I can't read something and make it stick. I still have to go through and put everything in my words. I know other people are cheating on these too, but I wonder if they feel bad about it. I feel kind of bad because I do like this class and I do want to read the stuff, just not do the work. Well, I shouldn't say I like the class. I like the subject, but that's close enough. I don't get along with classes. I never have. I still rarely miss one, even if it is torture for me.
Well, today was a lame day overal. I did no work. I never count school work as work because when you go out in the real world and have a real job, no one's going to care about that. But, I did nothing with Mirror Image, which I'm pretty okay with. I didn't work on Zephyr though, at all. I went on the baby name site for two seconds, that was it. I didn't get names or anything. Well, I guess picking out what Indigo was was something.
Indigo is Anastasius's twenty one year old sister who's an opera singer. I had to listen to some opera to get what vioce I wanted her to have, so I did that. She's a soubrette soprano. Getting a vioce actor for her is going to be hard. So, yeah, I did that but it's not much and not too important. We probably never see her sing in the show. That's just one of those things the creators know about the character that the fans eventually know that never really matters. Like...Edward in FMA being a lefty. It's cool, but it doesn't matter all that much. That's the only example I know.
Well, that's it for this. I'm kind of zoning out while chewing on a plastic spoon. I better get back to the school junk and find time for sleeping.

Oh yeah, that's Kyle. Sam drew him for me a while ago. I'm just playing with the link thingies.

blah post
We got our quota for number of posts in English. I'm behind and they're due next week. So, like before this is mostly a space waster.
I've got a big Algebra test to take in a couple hours. We got out early of English and I was just 'Alright, I can study and get a passing grade' but that's not the case.
I don't know what it is, but the more I study the more I seem to get wrong when it comes to the test. It should be the opposite. I'll study anyway just so I can say I did.
My prof. actually feels sorry for me. She gave me extra points on our last quiz because my score was so low. All math is just so bad for me.
I get it, I really do, I just can't do tests in math. I do all the problems right in class, but then get the exact same problems wrong on the tests.
I can do math like nothing in the class though. I barely turn the calculator on. Too bad it doesn't matter. It's just so annoying. I'll probably be annoyed the rest of the day.
Well, I've been doing more typing on Mirror Image lately. I can't type for very long on it like I used to, but it's still going along. I've got that one on my old typing computer and the keyboard is murder on my shotty arm now that I'm used to this laptop one.
I type all my stories up on the typing one so that the original copy is in that computer. since that one has only Word, it doesn't get viruses so my stuff won't get deleted. That happened in the early days of Mirror Image. The first two parts of the story came out to twenty four and twenty six chapters. Those are gone.
I'm probably not going to do anything with Mirror Image, and if I do it would be turning it into a screenplay, so I'd have to re-write it all anyway. I still remember it so it's not a big deal.
I'm at the right place when I talk about attachment to stories and characters. The only differance between me and a great number of you is that you guys can draw out your characters so others can enjoy them. I fail so miserbly there.
I can draw Zemes, but that's only because I came up with them. If I mess up I just say it's because it's a Zeme. The only Zeme I admitted to messing up was parahuman's Nicolaia. Zeme coloring is bases of dogs and she's not a traditional black and tan. Oh well, it doesn't matter.
I think the reson I started working on Mirror Image again is because the time finally matches up again. I started getting into fall and winter when it was still hot outside. It sort of threw me off. I could run around outside barefoot but they couldn't type of deal.
Of course, this has slowed down a lot since it ended in June. Most of what I'm working on is solely for me...and because I'm bored. I'm glad it's over because it's so east coast and I don't live there anymore. It doesn't feel right typing about the east and Philly when I can't go out and see my inspired surroundings.
That'll bring us to Epic. I can't call to do any real work on it until Saturday. I hate having completely opposite scheduals. The best situation would be if I was over there, but that can't work since I'm not there. I wish I had Fridays free, it could work then.
So, since we don't work on writing the actual episodes until the weekend, I've been doing back junk. You've got to know everything if you're a creator, that's just logic. Even if it doesn't involve the story, you've got to know it. You can't have complete characters or settings if those don't come from anywhere.
I've been working on Zephyr noble families. I should lay off Zephyr and start working on Byely or something, or even a character, but I just haven't quite finished with it yet.
I've gotten the von Bavol, the delgi Ruv, the du Drake, and the del Ignis done. I'm slowly working on the au Rue, so I've got two and a half to do. It takes six hours to do one family, and that's just an overal summary. I don't need any real details except for the von Bavol.
Yep, it's a lot of work. No one said this was going to be easy and starting is the hardest. This semester is almost over and it'll be a little better after that. Working around the scheduals is the toughest for us. We get one day that we actually do work. Mondays and Sundays are open but harder. Mondays I've got one class so we get interrupted by that. Sundays they go to church and I watch football, and we're all exhausted from staying up all Saturday. So, Saturdays are our only real work day.
In non-related news, Christmas is coming. Is anyone going to do anything cool? Expecting anything?
I'm going to Florida (again) to spend it with my dad's sister, mom, brother, niece, and nephew. His dad and step-mom live only a few miles away so it's not going to be fun. It's never been fun though, so that's okay. Well, I guess I should say that's usual. It'll be worse then ever this year. My uncle's a loser and the rest of the family are getting fed up with him. I told them to sever ties years ago, but I didn't have much pull back then so of course they didn't listen. I was only like ten or eleven when I said it. We're a strange disfunctional family. I think I'll ask for vicodin for Christmas. That'll be the only thing to curb the headache I'll have from "family time".

I can't get into my archives to collect the posts I need to hand in for English, so this is a complete space waster post.
Not that most of my posts aren't space wasters, this one is just more so. Like, I'm not going to say anything remotely interesting even though I need to fill enough space to bump down my pictures.
That's why I keep skipping and making gaps like I am.
I could always just go through the edit thing and shift through them that way, but just going into the archives is a lot easier.
I think it's really lame that we're supposed to keep a journal thingy just to show the prof. we're writing everyday.
I do usually write everyday, but not journals. Yeah, that's probably why I've got stories done while the other idiots don't. They turn to a journal and gush out their feelings.
I think I killed those a long time ago. I must've killed them with meat. I love meat, it's so yummy.
Yeah, told you this was an empty post. But seriously, they should channel certain feelings into their work. They want to get published, I don't but I've already got like four or five books done. I won't get them published, but they're there if I feel like it.
Most of them are poetry writers. I hate poetry, I really really hate poetry. I hought I'd fail the poetry section of this class since I've never written poetry, but my first poem the prof. liked. I thought that was hiliarious because it was about me not liking poetry. It's in my archieves on this site. It's got some Latin in it. That threw him off, but that was the idea.
The actual poetry project was two poems, one form and one free. I looked through what my classmates wrote, because we're supposed to do critiques, they're like all sick twisted love hate suicide poems. That's exactly why I hate poetry. My form poem was about the Mob and my free poem was about this one character of mine through the eyes of his younger brother. Oh, and they're mobsters too.
Gangs, that's my area, not creepy suicide love poems. How do you critique that? 'Oh, it's a very nice poem, very flowery, but I don't like it because it's a common suicide poem.' Most poets do commite suicide, probably because of the stupid poetry.
Okay, I went off on poetry and English a bit. This is still not going to be long enough for my birdy pictures to get pushed off.
Know what's bugging me right now? Right this second, other then it being 2:42? My back is bleeding. I've got blood all under my nails. I should call these things claws. Why the heck are they so sharp? I can't even scratch an itch. At least it wasn't my cheek or something.
Yeah, I'm rambling. I'm listening to some rock. rock is good. They play some pretty good song this early.
Wow, I'm just glad I don't have any classes tomorrow. College is really good that way. Tuesdays and Thursdays I don't have classes. Fridays suck beyond belief since that's a five hour class with a four hour right behind it. Ugh, and that four hour is Astronomy and it's doubled up this week.
Yep, still not long enough to kick off the raptors. I like having the pictures up so I can't just delete them. I'm going to have to be careful when I do them in the show. I don't want to give people the idea that these are totally awesome pets and everyone should run out and capture one.
Falconry is a sport and it being practiced helps conserve the populations of these birds through captive breeding. It's an incredubly demanding and costly sport. Want to grab your bags and run off to Hawaii for a week with your friends all crazy and spontaniously? Can't. It's very rewarding too, but if you like to be all crazy party fun as much as you can then it's not for you. Bunnies and squirrels aren't little fuzzy animals you stare at and go 'aawww' anymore either. That's raptor food.
I think it'll be okay as long as I stick to showing stuff like that. Of course, the birds in Epic aren't very traditional either. I don't think I've heard of anyone flying a harpy eagle, the others, yeah. But, my falconers are with their birds all the time. You'll almost never see them without the bird.
I should probably explain one little thing. I kept saying 'me' and 'I' when I was talking about the show. Epic is a collaboration, like all television shows, and the falconry part is mine. We spread everything around pretty well except for that part and a few others. It's a microscopic part but I love it.
It started at the swings near the graveyard where Unsaid Works usually takes it's out of office meetings. We'd just came up with the idea of Epic and just added a few characters to our already long list. These guys were special for a few reasons, a big one being they were created exclusively for the purpose of a television show.
I came up with four characters; Aurelius (the ugly hero), Aurora (a bar-maid), Borealis (Aurora's twin), and Adellenine (criminal). We were going in alphabetical order so I started with Adellenine, the one I was least interested in. So, sitting on the grass looking at the rest of Unsaid Works as they sat on swings with my back to the distant graveyard, I started telling them a bit about Adellenine. I made her up about thirty minutes ago so didn't have much to go on. Sam, keeper of the Epic files, took my info on the character I gave her. Then, out of nowhere, I said she had a falcon.
So, it was recorded that Adellenine had a falcon. We soon wandered off to the graveyard to collect surnames. While I was there, I found a name for the first Epic raptor. The headstone read 'Sally A' and then a last name. Sally A was carved close together so it looked like SallyA, which turned into Sallya. And thus, Sallya was born, almost. She had a name but not a breed. It wasn't until a few weeks later when I was back home that I picked gyrfalcon. I was on an Arabic breeders site and I saw his beautiful white grys. I knew that was the kind I wanted after I was a master, so that's what Sallya became. She was originally a black morph, but I saw so many white that she was switched after a few days.
The next raptor to come to life was Victorin, one that's not even in the Epic story. I was working on the backstory for Aurelius. All of his siblings (except him and his older sister) were adopted off. One of his brothers when to a family I called the Merridam. I decided for the fun of it to make them master falconers. It gave me an excuse to keep doing my research on the sport and pretend I was working. so, when Aurelius goes to visit his brother Jedrik six years later, he meets the black falcon Victorin. I picked a black falcon after seeing a quick snapshot of one. Very pretty. Victorin's name came from a random clicking on a baby name site.
My hand hurts really bad so I'll make the last three fast.
The last three raptors came together in a group. We needed a boss for Borealis and rivels for Porqe, Adellenine, and Wheeler. So, I came up with Kasper, Phyre, and Swift. To make things a little more interesting, I gave each a bird.
Aquala, the harpy eagle, came first. I gave reasons already. I still can't get over their talons being longer then a grizzley's claw. I know black bears aren't grizzlies, but they've still got some big claws.
Keefe, the blue eagle, came next. Since she's female, she's not really going to be blue like the male of her species. They're still pretty though and with a name like Phyre, you know his bird would be flashy.
Galahad, the kestrel, had to be small because Swift is the gang's messager. He looks like a sparrow.
Yeah, so, the falconry and the raptors for the show is my area. I think that was the point of all that. well, the really point is getting this really ridiculously long so it'll kick off my pictures and I can get to my archieves.
I'm too tired to do anymore. I'll post randomly when the sun is up if this didn't help.
