Night's Omen

Yeah I was just going to blow the whole thing off, but the douche tried to be a hero and like block my path out the door...and you've seen what I look like I'm not a small dude, so he basically got forcibly moved from my path. Then as is typical of emo fruits he backed down

I tried stepping off my bunk bed at one AM when the lights were off and stepped on my art case which was tilted at a 45 degree angle or so with my left foot while my right foot was up and fell to the left. Heavily. Because I was totally not expected it.

Ugh, I've done stuff like that before. Luckily, I usually just spring up and roll into a ball. People have seen me do it and say I look like Sonic the Hedgehog. Hope you feel better.

Dang that sucks blue....I roll my left ankle all the time cause its kinda gimpy from when I broke my back, so I feel your pain

haha, yea - it's not really that bad, though it has been dull sitting around with frozen vegetables on my elevated leg for most of the day. The thing I was worried about was the fact that I was supposed to spend 9 or so hours on a horse today, and it was my left ankle that I twisted and you mount from the left side.

Soooo... I'm going riding thursday instead.

There are 4 Smoke Witches here, but none of them happen to be available, lol. I don't even know that I'd consider Riese, though. He's a bit of a bastard.

What I do is this - I've got a bio template saved in notepad, and I just jot stuff down until I get everything in order. Once it's all done, I hunt down avatars and photos, and then when I have about 600 of them, lol, I get all my stuff ready. After that, you just log out, go to 'register' and fill out all the info. Just a head's up, you canNOT use the same e-mail. We usually just drop in a fake one, and then dip over to the 'email update' thread and link the new profile in.

That's basically it. I'm the only mod on, if you're thinking of cracking one out tonight, so I can't physically approve it until Darren gets on, but I can do all the other stuff until then.

Oh yeah, and if you have problems finding avatars, I'm the resident hunter for them. Just give me who you want to use as a PB and I can find 'em... just make sure to check the Face Claim thread first to clear it.

THOUGH ACTUALLY there really aren't that many witches around. It's unhealthy to have relatives who are hunters. D=

lol, still, it's not like we have too many or anything....

EDIT: Also, I used to do that. Nowadays I more let them fester in my brain for a while, start and stop writing things for a long time, then finally just register them. And sometimes I'll have a pb in advance, sometimes I won't. If I do not, this generally leads to an extensive search of google image or something in the hopes I'll find someone to use.

Of course, sometimes it takes longer then others. Like I didn't find a PB for Belinda for over TWO YEARS.

...

This usually happens when the character tells me what they look like before I have even a vague idea for a person in mind. Which does happen sometimes, or I find ONE picture that's perfect and can't find the same person again.

Both of these are, needless to say, HIGHLY ANNOYING.

I honestly DON'T see a Vida/Smoke working. If you take a look at Riese Smoke's profile, you'll see how bad it can get just for one to be brought up in the wrong environment. I believe we discussed it before, in an AU setting where Danielle and Riese actually were married. I think we determined that their magic would either go one way, or the other, but not both. I actually think AHAR addressed it at one point, but blue would know more than I would in that area.

If you want to do a sibset, that would be fun; we could use more Smoke Witches. I wouldn't even mind having TWO Smoke Witches, honestly, because SENY does need more of them. It would give Matthew and Sarah someone to talk to, lol.

And I love the names, wouldn't dream of stealing them.

I found one of the books the other day at Books A Million and there was a picture of her on the back...she looks like shes 12...wasn't what I was expecting..lol

Um, Vida/Smoke seems a bit unlikely to me, though as I have two Vida/Aruns....

Smoke is just the peaceful line, and Vida... uh... isn't. REALLY isn't. The end result, however, would probably mean that you'd get a couple witches whose healing skills weren't as developed as a full blood smoke and hurting skills weren't as developed as a full Vida, given that witch powers and how they're developed are passed down through blood. Vidas have been honing their skills for a long time to hurt, Smokes have been doing it to heal. You'd lose the edge off both of those by mixing - sort of like if you mix black and white paint, you'd get gray; neither as dark as black nor as light as white, just something in between that wouldn't be as useful for establishing your lights or your darks. Some of that could be changed a bit in training, sure, but even if you added some more black/white to the gray... it would still be gray. Lighter or darker, but still gray.

I'm really not sure if having one raised Vida, one raised Smoke would work - it would partially depend on their histories. Keep in mind, however, that Vidas and Smokes don't tend to like each other all that much. They tolerate each other, sure, but Smokes are all about 'HEAL IT, SAVE IT, EVERYTHING HAS GOOD IN IT' where Vidas are, as they have been for literally thousands of years, a clan of witches whose entire attitude is 'KILL THE VAMPIRES NOW.' I don't think that EITHER clan would like the other having the baby witches, though the Vidas would probably get them in the end - Dominique is a Vida and is the head of the witches; partial Vida babies would probably be Vida trained under her orders, and maybe also taught a bit of healing for their fellow witches.

Once again, however, it kind of depends on how creative you get with their histories. It could get squidgy with that cross tho, especially if you wanted one of them (or both of them) raised Smoke....

Well, she WAS 14 when she first got published - she looks older on some of her newer books.

Dang...I wish I had written a book when I was 14, thats awesome.

lol, it actually got accepted for publication on her 14th birthday, which is pretty. darn. amazing. if you ask me.

Indeed it is. I could probably write a killer book if I could just dictate it, my punctuation and stuff is horrible when I'm running with an idea. It would be expensive to pay an editor to fix all that lol.
