I'll use this account for all PG-13 art, should I get back into it. My Furaffinity account (Makojin on there) will show furry art of all ratings though.

Anyone on my watchlist that posted art in the past year just about I couldn't even load this page on my old computer... but I can now.

Everyone's saying, "NOOOO! How could they do this to meeee!! AAAAGH!!!" I know, I've been there, done that, but in the multitudes of game delays I've seen it's been delayed for a very good reason. This game is no different. I have faith in the game's development team. Only they now for sure why they made the delay, and quite frankly, it's just their business.

I'm sure you'd be even more pissed if the game came out with a killer glitch and forced a recall, and delayed six months for a re-release. It's best to take care of things now.

A copyright is an artist or author's right to freely copy and distribute a work. A copyright does not need to be registered to be legal under international law.

What can be copyrighted? Any finished writing, picture, photograph, or audio recording.

What cannot be copyrighted? Logos, characters, faces, people, rough ideas, and the list goes on.

So in saying this, I recognize the right of any other artist to draw any of my characters with or without permission. There's a catch though.

You can trademark almost anything, including characters, thus making artwork of those characters without permission technically illegal. For this reason too I cannot legally draw a picture of Amy Rose in any manner. Sega shelled out money to various governments to keep her character as a trademark.

The reason why I'm ranting? Most artists that draw other people's original characters use the ©. If you want to credit the original artist that made that character, you can mention his or her name as the creator of that character, but it's not copyrighted.

So basically, unless Eric Schwartz and Max Black Rabbit shelled out the money to the US government's patent office (I think it's $70 per trademark), they don't even have to be credited for the charcters they made.

So in short, try go get it right, Makojin is not my copyright, though any story I right with her in it, is. If Rowyin rights a story with her in it, he oesn't even have to credit me, but he most likely will. That story is his intellectual property.

If I right a story about Amy Rose and Sonic, by a technicallity it wouldn't be legal because they are trademarked characters.

End of rant.

I had three women on my mind, one of them most off though. Should I say two women and a girl.

no names

1) A woman who I care about very much. Not only do I not know exactly what I am to her, she's having some issues IRL.

2) A girl who recently was broken up. She seems to have lost all hope. She could be institutionalized soon because people found out about something she did to herself as a result. This was the same person who helped me through some difficult times last month and one of my best online friends.

3) A woman, who I don't really know all too well. I don't know if she's only seeking RP or if she wants to get closer than that.

I am confused. I feel loyalty and love for one woman, yet another I seem to want to get to know. Am I playing with fire? I guess I'm waiting for the first one, to know what I am to her. And why did this have to come along when I was vulendurable? I know I love the first one, but how should that play out? All I want to do is to settle down with someone, but my heart has to play these tricks now.

Love it wonderful and awful all at the same time. ]]> ~MakoYoushida http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8735595/ http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8735595/ Wed, 10 May 2006 22:54:15 PDT
While my computer may be running, it's frustrating to see that it can't load Second Life and run it for a decent amount of time. I might only have a short time to get that fixed too, or else I'll lose access to it until I do fix it. i did flash my bios though.

There's something else on my mind, but I can't talk about it here. ]]> ~MakoYoushida http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8714057/ http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8714057/ Mon, 08 May 2006 18:52:54 PDT ~MakoYoushida http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8706376/ http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8706376/ Mon, 08 May 2006 01:44:22 PDT
If she wants to be more than a friend, I'm somewhat afraid I'll hurt her. Perhaps I should ask her tomorrow what it is she wants. If it's going to hurt, might as well get it out of the way. ]]> ~MakoYoushida http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8689771/ http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8689771/ Sat, 06 May 2006 09:37:45 PDT

It would be a bit, but not knowing was even more torture. So here I am, once again, looking for love, and a new best friend. I do find it hard to get close to most people for this very reason. I just don't know if anyone would accept me for who I am, just as she did. I'm actually a bit relieved now to see that she's happy, but at the same time, I'm finally accepting the fact that it's over. We were friends before, I just thought that we could go back to that if things went this way. I guess I was wrong.

Now I feel a bit sick, and I have to get ready for work too. I know I gave her the option to leave us... but maybe I told her something I can't bear myself. Damn, I need help. ]]> ~MakoYoushida http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8526748/ http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8526748/ Thu, 20 Apr 2006 00:14:20 PDT
After work my heart was shattered. I've had bad break ups before, but this was the first time I could honestly say it was my fault. I said something at the wrong time, and then I went into a state of panic. If I still love her, and she still loves me, why is it best we split up completely? I want to talk it out, with her and her other love. I see that his love is equal. Perhaps this thing had brough me and the other guy closer together as friends, while previously I'd been somewhat avoiding him because I felt guilty. I think if we can put this behind us and talk it out we can have a stronger relationship than before, perhaps the three of us.

Don't get me wrong, I haven't turned gay, but I do feel that she loves us both, and that's how she might be happiest. That's what I truely want. It might've been simpler had I have been an actual female, instead of pretending to be one all the time.

And yes, I intentionally left names out, it was out of respect.

I just can't do anything right anymore. It's killing me. ]]> ~MakoYoushida http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8512679/ http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8512679/ Tue, 18 Apr 2006 16:28:31 PDT
Waiting on word is heart wrenching, but that's all I can do. I wish there was someone I could turn to, like I have told her to do. I have online relationships, you never do know if they're meaningful until it's too late, and once you make the one mistake, it becomes so unstable.

I didn't want to hurt her, because I know she's been hurt before, and she's feared falling in love again because of this. It's my fault. I don't deserve to be loved, at least not by her.

Yes, her love is what I desire, but as I told her it's in her hands what she does. If she'll shatter me she ought to do it soon and get it over with. The anticipation hurts more.

But she's confused herself. She DOESN'T deserve this, she has such a nice soul. I want her to be happy again.

A friend of mine played Romeo last year, and reminded me of lines from the play. This is the bitterness of love, after months of sweetness. I put her in such a hard spot and now I don't know if I can forgive myself, something that rarely ever happens.

This is another time when my harts and mind are in turmoil. My heart wants things as soon as possible, my mind says give it time. This time, I'll have to trust my mind, despite the fact that that's what got me into this trouble in the first place. ]]> ~MakoYoushida http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8503742/ http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8503742/ Mon, 17 Apr 2006 19:23:32 PDT

1) Get my computer running finally. I initially put it togetherback in October, but everything I've done has failed to get it running. Now I have a new CPU, if this doesn't work, I'll have a $700 rock. I pray it works.

2) New Final Fantasy XI expansion. (out next tuesday)

3) Get more drawing practice in. Lately I've been latting my art slide, been too busy at work and such. I might have been doing a little doodle here and there, but nothing serious.

4) Attendance at Anthrocon. This is one of two trips I'm planning for the summer. The convention is at a new venue this year, so I wonderhowit'll play out.

5) Gencon Indy. Even though this is in state, I have never attended one of these gamer conventions before. Del insists on my going the whole convention, but I may only get Saturday and Sunday off for it.

6) Fall games: Phantasy Star Universe (PC) and DDR Supernova (PS2)

7) Midwest Fur Fest: I missed it last year because of my damn computer and the management crisis in our store. Should be a different story this year, unless I have moved away from Indiana by the time, which I doubt.

There's one trip that I can't seem to plan yet, it's all riding on one person, and how soon she can get plans together.

In other news, Del had a couple of guests over last night, Kiva and Soron. We played some pool last night, but the other two seemed just to talk to each other... probably because they were outside quite a bit and Kiva's a heavy smoker x,x ]]> ~MakoYoushida http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8222571/ http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8222571/ Mon, 20 Mar 2006 23:13:21 PST ~MakoYoushida http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8195863/ http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8195863/ Sat, 18 Mar 2006 08:39:01 PST Enpu2.

Most of you don't know the history. Back in 2001, when I was playing PSO on the Dreamcast, I managed to get into a team with a player that did some really interesting things. We beat the game that time and I took a picture of it, at the time I had TV Tuner capability on my computer. I came across this person a couple more times and then he invites me into his clan. "Fine and Dandy" I thought. We shared interests in Anime, he got me into DDR, and of course we played games together. This was okay for a few years, but then he decided to meet me last year. To be honest, I was just happy keeping our friendship an online one. To me meeting people I know online ought to be reserved for group get-togethers not one-on-one, with few exceptions. This was why I was wanting to meet at a furry convention, where I would be meeting online friends anyway.

But he decided to take a vacation last October, and stayed at my apartment. I didn't protest then, but I do feel guilty that I couldn't be that good of a host since I had to work the entire week.

Then this week I coudln't give him my schedule until he was already in his girlfriend's town. I thought maybe Chris and I could visit him there, but then Chris realized that he already made plans with some other friends, so I couldn't do that. Later that day he tells me he needs me to move with him to Michigan.

Then my work schedule changed, and he couldn't get it touch with me, so he decided to make the trip down here anyway. When he was at the hotel he called me and told me he was 2 hours away, not telling me I was on speakerphone. I told him to turn back, I couldn't take guests, which was true, I had to get to bed because I had a meeting in the morning. I had to go as far as cussing at him for him to get the picture.

This morning it was raining, so I thouht I would try to call my RGM and try to get a ride from him. I get a message instead that the phone was cut off for non-payment. After my shift (Which wound up totaling 9.5 hours) I talk to him, and through the online account I learned it was reported as stolen.

So yeah, I can understand him being upset, telling me he wasted $50 in gas... but his trip yesterday was unnanounced in my eyes, and I don't take kindly to unnanounced visits. I probably should've told him my store phone number so it would be easier to get in touch, but that's just hindsight. It seems that this new girlfriend of his is making demands of him the he can't meet by himself, but I hope they do well together. As for me, my plans aren't set in stone, but it didn't involve moving to Michigan. I dont' have anything against the state, just that if I were to make such a move again, it would be to the west, not the north, but that's still some time away.

Farewell and have a good life. I'm sorry I gave a care, but if you were in my shoes, you might've done the same. ]]> ~MakoYoushida http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8035317/ http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8035317/ Wed, 01 Mar 2006 07:55:52 PST Enpu2 and the other one a game run by ~midnightpinkangel. Unfortunately for the latter one it may have ended, all because of a certain fox who decided to shape the world she made for himself, and who said that she's not right because she's keeping all the information to herself. OF COURSE SHE IS! This RPG is one way of telling her story, and if we knew too much we could really screw things up. Our charactars aren't supposed to know that the curse placed on the city was for the most of it concentrated pollution from the factories, at least not yet. Sheesh, trying to argue the laws of physics in a fantasy world, the GM makes them up, they don't have to be based on real physics. I swear some people just want to screw things up for the rest of us.

I'm considering hosting my own game if she really did delete her script like she said, but I need some time to make up a new story, world, and all that good stuff. ]]> ~MakoYoushida http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8022232/ http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/8022232/ Mon, 27 Feb 2006 20:14:47 PST ~MakoYoushida http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/7950884/ http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/7950884/ Mon, 20 Feb 2006 08:57:35 PST ~MakoYoushida http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/7881879/ http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/7881879/ Mon, 13 Feb 2006 09:52:43 PST

Sunday - I dream of my mate tackling me to the ground in cuddlement (I know it's not a word, but I like it anyway)

Monday - I must've royally ticked someone off because I was being hunted, probably got shot like 15 times x,x

Tuesday - Didn't dream (at least I don't remember)

Wednesday - Somewhat reoccuring dream of trying to find a DDR machine, but this time I found a DDR Supernova machine (the game isn't even out yet)

I wonder if I'll dream tonight, what will it be like? ]]> ~MakoYoushida http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/7824351/ http://MakoYoushida.deviantart.com/journal/7824351/ Tue, 07 Feb 2006 00:18:40 PST
I had a dream last night, that my mate had followed me into a room and procedded to tackle me, and we were on the ground, tangled in each other. It felt so real though @,@

And that, as they say, is that.

~Tansunn sent me a short film called The Parlor this morning. It's a look at an internet chatroom with all the barriers taken down for us to see. It's hilarious!

And I managed to get caught in a mouse trap, it was one of the glue ones. How emberassing x,x

Blarg, getting sick again. Stuff like this happens though. Over the past couple of days I'd been getting into ~midnightpinkangel's RCP, Blackice City. It's like if you made a tabletop RPG into an IRC script. My character is a Street Magician in it. I suppose sometime soon I'll do a pic of her. She's in human form in that game n,n

And that, as they say, is that.

This does present a problem for me though, I need to reserve NOW, but I can't because my current credit card expires this month, and I know my new one won't be in for a couple more weeks. Why does this have to be such a pain in the rear end? x,x

Anyway, someone dropped a $100 bill while trying to pay me. I ran it out to him when someone pointed it out to me. He gave me a $20 "for being honest." In honestly I didn't really want anything, just to make sure he wouldn't come to us later on and accuse us of stealing. This guy though, was dropping money and stuff from his pockets left and right.
