                <description><![CDATA[ Halloween's my most favourite holiday, and I wanted to wish you all a Merry Halloween! <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/g/giggle.gif" width="17" height="15" alt=":giggle:" title="Giggle" /><br /><br />Today, my brothers and I will be watching spookies online from the old cartoon of Sleepy Hollow, and perhaps the old German film Nosteratu. My brothers aren't exactly set on what they'll be for Halloween; I had thought they were going to be the Sparda brothers from Devil May Cry again (they were the Spardas for Sergei's, and Airezen's birthday on the 27th). I'm going to be dressing up similar to Ramon Salazar from Resident Evil, and titling the costume Lady Salazar. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/g/giggle.gif" width="17" height="15" alt=":giggle:" title="Giggle" /><br /><br />I hope everybody has a good night, and a Hell of alot of spooky fun! <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/g/giggle.gif" width="17" height="15" alt=":giggle:" title="Giggle" /><br /><br />~Pris <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /><br /><br />P.S. I decided I'm not going to be getting back to all of the messages I had in my inbox... there were just too many, and I couldn't stand it to keep putting them off, so I'm just not going to get back to them. If I didn't answer something or clarify anything you were curious about, please just contact me again on the subject if possible, because I know I dropped a few conversations right now... and I apologise for that, but I just don't have the time at the moment to get back to anything, so please understand and bear with me in the future. I'll try not to get backlogged again...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I just wanted to let everybody know that I'm no longer interested in working on fanart and fanfiction at the moment. I would like to focus on my art career (which I'm currently having difficulties with), and other things regarding life issues. <br /><br />I am sorry to say to everybody who I was going to give an art request to, I'm going to be dropping them as I need to be able to have more freedom to work on finishing art trades and commissions. I would like to apologise to the following for I cannot work on artwork for free now:<br /><br />~<a class="u" href="http://solmedes.deviantart.com/">Solmedes</a><br />=<a class="u" href="http://drakhand006.deviantart.com/">Drakhand006</a><br />~<a class="u" href="http://goth111.deviantart.com/">Goth111</a><br /><br />I have three art trades to work on, and a couple of requests for close friends of mine (one art request for Steven, and a writing request for Raphael), as well as a few commissions for clients. <br /><br />I feel awful for having to drop some artwork, but unfortunately, it's been so long that I no longer have the motivation - nor time - for working on art requests for free. I absolutely refuse to take <i>any</i> requests unless if they come from one of my friends, from now on.<br /><br />Thankyou for understanding.<br /><br />~Pris <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I stole this game from <a href="http://bloody-funeral.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/b/l/bloody-funeral.png?3" alt=":iconbloody-funeral:" title="bloody-funeral"/></a> because I'm a little thief. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/g/giggle.gif" width="17" height="15" alt=":giggle:" title="Giggle" /><br /><br />Anyhow, I'm not much for tagging, so just anybody take it and do it yourselves if you so wish to. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/a/aww.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":aww:" title="Aww" /><br /><br />Here are the rules :<br />{1}.Post these rules<br />{2}.Each tagged person must post 8 things about themselves on their journal.<br />{3}.At the end you have to choose 8 people to tag, and post their icons on the same journal.<br />{4}.Go to their page and send a message saying you tagged them.<br />{5}.NO tag-backs<br /><br />1 - I'm extremely shy and quiet. I get the feeling that nobody sees me often when I am out, and because I hardly ever speak, people probably don't notice I have a voice. I tend to smile and giggle when I'm more familiar with people after a few meetings, but I'm still very quiet for a long time. It's easier to talk online, although I have been known for being cold and polite online before warming up considerately. When I do speak, my voice is rather soft and sometimes it hurts to raise my voice. I'm planning on going to a dialect and singing coach because I don't like my accent at all - my voice is for some reason affected by my bastard father's Southern accent even though he was only in the first five years of my life, so at times I have a strange accent (sometimes it sounds Southern when I am angry or tired, other times it sounds Irish when I am excited or sad - I can't even explain it when I'm talking 'normally' ). <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /><br /><br />2 - I'm closest to my brothers Samuel and Robert, and our Mother who is sometimes like a sister to me because of her youthful spirit. It's hard for me to open up to people because of my trust issues and the abuse my family has been forced to go through (we're still not free from it <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" />). I tend to feel safer around females over males because I've been betrayed exactly three times by men I've known in my life, although I do not want to talk about it right now... I never intend to make friends, it usually just happens over time while going through conversations and I think it's better that way because then I can tell if I really like a person enough to befriend them. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/a/aww.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":aww:" title="Aww" /><br /><br />3 - I'm borderline bisexual, and this is something that is hard for me to talk about, because I'm often confused about my orientation. My Mother doesn't approve of it, one of my friends tells me I couldn't really be, and I'm aware that a few of my friends are against this sort of thing. But if I keep on denying it, I'm only going to be more confused and hurt in the long run, so I cannot keep denying the fact I'm attracted to both men and women. I do prefer men because I've been taught women marry men, although honestly I do not ever want to be in a relationship because I have trust issues, and I feel I would be wasting my time because I'd rather focus completely on my art and music careers over getting fussy with emotions - emotions are something I'm not fond of, but I have them and I happen to be emotional at times - not to mention I have a suspicion that I would only be betrayed in the end anyhow. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /><br /><br />4 - I'm passionately in love with the creative arts. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/a/aww.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":aww:" title="Aww" /> I love sketching and painting, both in real life and on the computer, as well as writing stories from original ideas to tribute stories (fanfiction). I love listening to music, and there's rarely a day that I don't listen to music at all. I'm learning guitar with my brothers, although I wish to become a keyboardist and pianist. I write alot of lyrics and I'm planning to get a singing coach so that I don't risk damaging my voice (at times, it hurts to raise my voice so I don't want to risk anything, plus I'm extremely shy even around my brothers with singing). <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /> I actually used to self teach myself piano/keyboard when I was younger, but because I was always self teaching myself, I eventually gave up due to being made fun of by my bastard uncle all the time which has killed alot of any self esteem I ev... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ <i>...that does not begin to justify you.</i><br /><br />This song by Evanescence known simply as <i>Bleed</i>, and <i>I Must Be Dreaming</i>, reminds me so of a past life of which I believe was my life before this one. <br /><br />It makes me sick that I have feelings for likenesses of the bastard who tortured me in my past life, because it's so wrong and yet I know I'm messed up enough to not fight against it... <br /><br />My brothers and I plan to write a novel based upon that life because the three of us were together in that life, although with different roles. <br /><br />Robert was my stepbrother, while Samuel was my best friend... and that bastard was Robert's father - therefore, my stepfather although I remembered despising him, telling him he could never pass for a father with his sick games and abuse. <br /><br />My Mother believes that he murdered my past life's mother as she seems to be absent in the memories. I also remember having twin children, and... well, I guess you could figure out how that happened.<br /><br />Reincarnation is a subject that greatly interests me, especially as I am a psychic, and am in training to become a mystic someday. I've written a couple of articles (and will probably write more) on the subject, of which I am thinking about sending in to Fate magazine.<br /><br />I can remember quite a few past lives, although that one stands out the most and is the one I recall most clearly. <br /><br />My favourite past life was when I was Margerita Luti, who is well known as La Fornarina - the baker's daughter of whom was the lover of the famous left handed painter, Raphael.<br /><br />For some time, I felt that the resemblence was all that was making me believe it - that, and remembering Italy so well - but over time, I realised I remembered more, and my Mother's teacher/therapist whom is a liscensed doctor, and mystic confirmed my suspicions as having been true. <br /><br />That's enough to convince me, especially seeing as she is not one to say something simply to please somebody, or to get their hopes up - she's straight down to business, as the way should be.<br /><br />The other evidence to convince me - other than years worth of hints I dismissed while growing up - is that I mourn over his death, and simply seeing his portraits is enough to bring me to tears. <br /><br />And that is saying alot, because I feel I've become heartless as of late from my depression.<br /><br />Fate magazine tends to prefer articles sent in with artwork, and photographs, so I'll be working on those to go along with my articles (as well as rewriting some things because I only have drafts upon the moment). <br /><br />My Mother really wants me to pursue this, although I know I'll end up taking my time because I tend to lose inspiration easily, but I'm trying - God knows I'm trying.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

I have arisen from the dead once again! <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/n/ninja.gif" width="19" height="19" alt=":ninja:" title="Ninja" /><br /><br />Seriously though, I hacked a neighbour's internet, and that's why I'm even on right now. Yeah, can't afford internet of our own, let alone alot of other things... all the money's being saved up to get the away from this hellhole.<br /><br />Umm... I don't know how long the internet's going to last, but here's hoping.<br /><br />I uploaded alot of my stories on my FFN account: <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1776900/">Alabastor Pris Holmes</a>, and two new music videos on my doujinshi group's YouTube account: <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.youtube.com/user/DarthPhoenix17">DarthPhoenix17</a>; and I'm going to be uploading my artwork (and stories) up on here, too.<br /><br />My music videos are one about Raphael Sorel, and another about Kagemitsu, Mitsurugi and Setsuka... just check them out to find out about them. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/winkrazz.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";P" title="Wink/Razz" /><br /><br />Okayies... umm... I'll be trying to upload now...<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /> Pris<br /><br />PS. I want Soul Calibur: Broken Destiny so badly... I've also come to develope a love-hate relationship towards Raphael, because we have so much in common that it scares me (especially now after reading about his making dolls of Amy, obsession problems, and making people into pets), and as I have alot of self-hatred, I'm finding alot of anger aimed at him now, too. How strange, isn't it. To come to hate the only person who gives you comfort in your dark hours... I hate life.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /> <b>Updates ~ June 28th, 2009</b> <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /><br />...next time I update, it'll actually be an update, regarding my artwork for others... but right now, I'm feeling real insecure. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /><br /><br />Okayies, umm... how do I say this... <br /><br />Look, there's this guy that I used to have very strong romantic feelings for - I was almost engaged to him... <br /><br />...despite the fact I viewed it all as a game, but his friend actually almost seemed serious when he asked me to marry his friend - the guy I liked at the time... since the guy is part... erm... Mexican, I think, so he was having issues with having to get married, and all...<br /><br />He gave me some hints that said he liked me, too, but I think the pressure of his bastardly friends bossing him around, and practically harrassing me to no end... well, that led to the first time that I cut off contact from him.<br /><br />Several months later, the guy sends me a PM over at a site that we're both on, and apologises (said his computer was down, and when he got back online; he wanted to know where I went)... <br /><br />Okay, one thing I left out - he is/was a Juunanagou cosplayer, and I was a fangirl. Yep, embarrassed to admit that - but I want to have no regrets, and he always told me that regrets were a wasted emotion. <br /><br />But the thing was, like I said, I viewed it as a fucking game, and everything I said to him, was simply to get his attention - I never meant anything out of saying I would marry him if he did this, or that! (I've only known him online, for God's sake!) <br /><br />His friends took it seriously, so two idiots hacked his account, and harrassed me... while his other friend, who was also something of a jerk (not as bad, from what I could tell, but still) really seemed like he wanted to pair me off with the guy.<br /><br />Yeah... anyhow, the guy apologises to me, right? <br /><br />I accept, although I'm very suspicious of him, because I felt that he only wanted to get in contact with me because of my fansite for Juunanagou, which he brought up shamelessly in the apology PM...<br /><br />...something very ironic I'd like to point out - prior to his getting back in contact with me that time; my brothers, and I, for some reason, had been talking about him the past week beforehand... scary, right? That's why being psychic can be unexpecting at times...<br /><br />Anyhow, the said fansite... got a spammer, with several things in the messages that really made me believe it was him - this fucking spammer also harrasses other female Juunanagou webmasters, and goes so far as to harrass one of them - taking it to the point of a fucking stalker - because she was too mature to even respond to him the way he wanted her to.<br /><br />What's this got to do with him? <br /><br />I thought it WAS him.<br /><br />It isn't.<br /><br />No.<br /><br />But even after publicly accusing him, and saying "sorry" for that - I still removed him from my friends list. <br /><br />Why? <br /><br />I did not believe him. <br /><br />I thought it was him, and/or his fucking friends.<br /><br />I'm real sorry if my swearing, and "angsty-ness" is bothering anybody... you don't have to deal with this, if you don't want to - this is something I need to get off my chest (of course, I'm probably leaving out some details I've forgotten by now, but whatever... as well as withholding some personal things his friend told me, because to speak of them publicly would be disrespecting the guy I used to like).<br /><br />...okay, why am I even talking about this? <br /><br />Because I decided to send him an apology. <br /><br />That's right. <br /><br />I'm apologising to him now.<br /><br />I don't know if this is pathetic, or mature. I don't give a fucking damn whether he replies back, or not - I simply felt I needed to get that off my chest, because my accusations/suspicions were WRONG. <br /><br />WRONG, and I felt those accused without fairness need an apology. <br /><br />People on this forum I'm apart of with my best friend said it would probably turn out okay, but I'm not expecting much. <br /><br />I just want him to know that... I'm sorry.<br /><br />:butterflytwo: ~<a class="u" href="http://secret-x-link.deviantart.com/">Secret-x-Link</a> :butterflytwo:<br /><br />PS.

And my bro, Hwang's, Cassandra looks as cute as a button, too. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/g/giggle.gif" width="17" height="15" alt=":giggle:" title="Giggle" /><br /><br />Anyways, more information can be found here: <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3173979">[link]</a> (also mentions Tekken 6, and some other games for Namco fans - and links to GameSpot, which has more information... although, not much, as the game has only been announced recently)<br /><br />I'm so excited! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/e/excited.gif" width="23" height="19" alt=":excited:" title="OMG! I can't contain my excitement!" /> I actually ran into my brothers' room during the middle of the night, just to tell them the great news! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/w00t.gif" width="23" height="23" alt=":w00t:" title="w00t!" /> They were as equally excited! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> ...well, okay, I maaaaaaaay have been a bit more excited - I don't know! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/razz.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=P" title="=P (Razz)" /><br /><br />...too bad it wasn't just coming out now, I'd definately ask for it on my birthday next week, hehe. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/aww.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":aww:" title="Aww" /><br /><br />Also! I'm working on writing a series of stories for the Manjitou, and Yoshimitsu, which will also feature my own created character, Shadowmitsu (Sha-mitsu)... other than the little vignettes I already have up, I did finish a chapter for one of the stories just the other day. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/aww.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":aww:" title="Aww" /><br /><br />Peace! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/p/peace.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":peace:" title="Peace" /><br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/butterflytwo.gif" width="20" height="14" alt=":butterflytwo:" title=":butterflytwo: (Butterfly)" /> ~<a class="u" href="http://secret-x-link.deviantart.com/">Secret-x-Link</a> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/butterflytwo.gif" width="20" height="14" alt=":butterflytwo:" title=":butterflytwo: (Butterfly)" /><br /><br />... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /> ...<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /> <b>My Brothers - Sergei Dragunov, and L.

I've been creative, and have been working on-and-off on original ~<a class="u" href="http://ctm-studios.deviantart.com/">CTM-Studios</a> projects; as well as thinking about some <b>Soul Calibur</b>, and <b>Tekken</b> related projects - like my Yoshimitsu, and Sha-mitsu, story ideas; and another series developed by my brothers, and I, about <b>Tekken</b>.<br /><br />...Anyways, I don't know what else to type; other than I'm getting tired of my dA inbox filling up, so I'm just going to delete everything - if anybody wanted me to look at something, and/or comment something in particular, just comment here, and let me know, okay?<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/butterflytwo.gif" width="20" height="14" alt=":butterflytwo:" title=":butterflytwo: (Butterfly)" /> ~<a class="u" href="http://secret-x-link.deviantart.com/">Secret-x-Link</a> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/butterflytwo.gif" width="20" height="14" alt=":butterflytwo:" title=":butterflytwo: (Butterfly)" /><br /><br />... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /> ...<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /> <b>My Brothers - Sergei Dragunov, and L.

I decided, I'll try to be more active here... but I still don't have the energy, or patience, at the moment to reply to everything/comment on everything... <br /><br />...but I have been posting new artwork up over at my art group, ~<a class="u" href="http://ctm-studios.deviantart.com/">CTM-Studios</a> - actually, at the moment, I'm more interested in working on original projects; so my fanart will be taking a backseat at the moment.<br /><br />I don't even really feel like writing this; but I am... if anybody's curious as to what I've been up to, just the usual - playing video games, studying, and whatnot... I hope to get back to working on artwork soon, as well; although, my new submissions will most likely just be original, and therefore, posted on my art group's gallery. I was colouring an artwork of Raphael Sorel, a while back; and still have some things to work on, for friends... arrgghh... sorry for taking so bloody long. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/c/crying.gif" width="20" height="17" alt=":crying:" title="Crying" /><br /><br />Mom's been talking about helping me set up a prints account - along with getting our website back online - so my brothers, and I, will hopefully be able to sell artwork; and we'll also probably start taking commissions, in the nearby future, as well; instead of free requests/art trades, from now on.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /> <b>..:: Series Meme ::..</b> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /><br /><br />I stole this off of ~<a class="u" href="http://solmedes.deviantart.com/">Solmedes</a>, who did this for <b>Fire Emblem</b>... however, I'll be doing it for... <b>Soul Calibur</b>.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /> <b>Favourite character.</b><br /><br />I have several favourite characters, including Raphael, and Amy Sorel; Hwang, Seung Mina, and Yunsung; Maxi, Kilik, Xianglian and Xianghua... and of course - Yoshimitsu! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br /><br />The ones mentioned above are definately my top favourites (everybody knows I adore the Sorels, and Yoshimitsu, to no end); and probably the group of characters my brothers, me, and our friend, talk about the most.... <br /><br />I also like Siegfried alot, which is why I was thrilled to have his fanlisting, and I also like Tira, who I can relate to, at times... sometimes, I like Talim (first favourite female character), Ivy (not her dressing style; at least, not the 1P skank outfits), and Cassandra (even if she's a big brat - it's kind of fun to point out some similarities between her, and Link; namely the whole, "courage", thing, hah).<br /> <br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /> <b>Least Favourite Character. </b><br /><br />I have a few of those... very rare though, because I actually like most of the SC characters... I guess I hate Ivy's biological father the most; even if he's a cool pirate villain... arrrgg.<br /><br />Oh! I know! The bonus characters in SCIV. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/x/xd.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":XD:" title="XD" /><br /> <br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /> <b>Character with the best hair. </b><br /><br />Hum... either Amy, Siegfried, or Raphael (who has the most hairstyles out of these three <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/l/lmao.gif" width="19" height="21" alt=":lmao:" title="Laughing my ass off!" /> )... Amy has such beautiful curls (although, her hair is not really curly; she's obviously just dolled up, as such)... and Siegfried's hair is long, and so shiny looking. :3<br /><br />Raphael's hair goes great with his beautiful face; and even though I thought his slicked back hairstyle in his 1P SCIII outfit was attractive; Raphael is better suited with the longer hair, such as in SCII 1P outfit.<br /> <br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /> <b>Charact... ]]></description>

I've been feeling very overwhelmed, exhausted, sick/stressed out; and I'm slowly trying to be more active on here (and online, in general).<br /><br />I finally came up with a perfect couple's postures, for my picture of ~<a class="u" href="http://myemolilteddybear.deviantart.com/">myemolilteddybear</a>, and Juunanagou. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/favheart.gif" width="15" height="14" alt=":+favlove:" title="+favlove" /> <br /> ...just have to get around to sketching it (and getting the image I would like to use for reference). <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/aww.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":aww:" title="Aww" /><br /><br />Umm... and after learning more about the real Darken Rahl, from the book series; Steven decided he'd rather have me draw him something else, because of how scary/sickening of a character Darken is in the books (I still, however, can't help liking Craig Parker's performance - he's a very good actor, and very handsome)... so, I have to restart on that one. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /><br /><br />I'm also doing an art trade with somebody else, via the forums; of Chibi Link, and Chibi Talim; because those are two of their favourite characters from the video games, The Legend of Zelda, and Soul Calibur. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /><br /><br />...one thing that's been irritating me the last few days, and has to do with the internet, is that this <i>super</i> obsessed Juunanagou fan was bugging me about <i>my</i> best friend, Steven, just because he happens to use the nickname, Juunana(gou)! God, she's like in love with him, without even knowing him! And the poor guy has told me that she's already at him on FaceBook now. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/c/crying.gif" width="20" height="17" alt=":crying:" title="Crying" /> <br /><br />...the main reason it irritates me, was because she was expecting me to talk about him, and even rudely had one of her status updates - in French, mind you, so I had to ask her <i>twice</i>, what it meant, before she answered me - as, "waiting for Al to talk about HIM"... I found that rude, and of course, snapped at her, telling her that I won't disrespect my best friend like that, because I believe everybody should talk for themselves... but whatever, apparently, she's already bugging Steven now... *sigh*<br /><br />...that woman has got to be one of the weirdest Juunanagou fans I've ever met. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/c/crying.gif" width="20" height="17" alt=":crying:" title="Crying" /> Apparently, she's obviously a fangirl of Steven now, and I feel bad for poor Steven... sure, he's deserving of such attention - he is a great guy, despite being a little annoying at times (*hides from Steven*); but c'mon, it's not like he's really Juunanagou, and needs to be treated as such. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/x/xd.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":XD:" title="XD" /><br /><br />Okayies... sorry for ranting... but yeah, I have to say that Juunanagou has the most interesting fandom out there (I personally prefer the more tame/cool fans, like myself, my brothers, Steven, ~<a class="u" href="http://myemolilteddybear.deviantart.com/">myemolilteddybear</a>, and ~<a class="u" href="http://dutchy-doll.deviantart.com/">Dutchy-doll</a>, among a few other webmasters of Juu sites; over the haters, and super obsessed ones... and I mean that, in the unhealthy kind of obsessed way). <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /><br /><br />~<a class="u" href="http://secret-x-link.deviantart.com/">Secret-x-Link</a><br /><br />... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticon... ]]></description>

I'm not sure what to write here, othen than I've been spending some time playing PSHome, which is nice, and all... except for the jerks who can usually be found in PSHome USA (I prefer Europe, because they're usually respectful; despite usually speaking another language <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." />)... <br /><br />...OH! and that I'm stressed out, from having to deal with this obnoxious spammer/flamer, on my Juunanagou (Android 17) fansite - not only is he being an asshole on my guestbook, but to other Juu site's guestbooks, as well! TALK ABOUT BEYOND PATHETIC!!! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/p/pissed.gif" width="15" height="20" alt=":pissed:" title="Pissed" /><br /><br />God... why the Hell can't people grow up?!

(btw, my good friend, ~<a class="u" href="http://dutchy-doll.deviantart.com/">Dutchy-doll</a>, found out using the bastard's IP address; that he's an infamous spammer/flamer, and has been banned from various websites all over... arrrrrrrrggggh!!!)<br /><br />*sigh* Other than that loser, who I'd love to forget about already... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/e/eek.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":O" title=":O (Eek)" /><br /><br />...I'm slowly trying to get back into working on projects, with my groups (original arts group, Celestial Time Miracles Studios, aka CTM-Studios; and doujinshi/fan tribute group, DarthPhoenix17)... I'm not sure... did I write about this in my art blog? ...can't remember... so yeah...

I've kind of decided that I'm going to be taking maybe a small break from dA, probably just a few days... <br /><br />I've been feeling somewhat overwhelmed; and unfortunately, I got more sick, when I really thought I was getting better <i>(I'm not the only one sick in my house though, it's probably some form of a virus, or flu... more likely a severe virus/borderline flu, because of the chest pains, and numbness)</i>.<br /><br />I finished up ~<a class="u" href="http://princessairezen.deviantart.com/">PrincessAirezen</a>'s art trade, and was surprised it got five favourites in one day. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/e/eek.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":O" title=":O (Eek)" /><br /><br />...anyways, I will probably be working on, and off, on colouring some artwork; as well as sketching up ~<a class="u" href="http://myemolilteddybear.deviantart.com/">myemolilteddybear</a>'s picture, too. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/aww.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":aww:" title="Aww" /><br /><br />Other than being sick, I've been playing online, with my brothers, ~<a class="u" href="http://white-angel-of-death.deviantart.com/">White-Angel-of-Death</a>, ~<a class="u" href="http://615-crescentsun.deviantart.com/">615-CrescentSun</a>, and our good friend, ~<a class="u" href="http://dutchy-doll.deviantart.com/">Dutchy-doll</a> - RE5 demo, and PSHome, which is really addictive; despite all the moronic fools we've run into. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/x/xd.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":XD:" title="XD" /><br /><br />Oh yeah!

I think i saw your picture on this website/blog here<br />CLICK HERE"<br /><br />or:<br /><br />"Hey. check out this funny blog!! LOL CLICK HERE"<br /><br />YOU MUST NOT CLICK ON THAT LINK!!! <br />If you do, it will open a fake dA page and it will hack your account by sending this kind of messages to other members. It is very possible to mess up your computer, as well. Fortunately, I haven't received any message such these yet.<br />Inform as many people as possible about this matter, it is very SERIOUS and everyone must be aware of it!!<br /><br />And remember: DON'T CLICK THE LINK!!"</i></b><br /><br />...I've actually seen this virus around, and I should've really updated about that, but... oh well. Thanks big sis for posting that/passing that on! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/aww.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":aww:" title="Aww" /><br /><br />...hm, today, I joined some <b>Zelda</b> clubs, mostly Link related. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/winkrazz.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";P" title="Wink/Razz" /> And I will probably be joining the other <b>Zelda</b> clubs I was apart of on my old accounts.<br /><br />About artwork progress; I've finally finished coloured Airezen in my half of the art trade with ~<a class="u" href="http://princessairezen.deviantart.com/">PrincessAirezen</a>; but still have to colour Vergil... so I guess that makes it about %50 finished-ish. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /><br /><br />And for ~<a class="u" href="http://myemolilteddybear.deviantart.com/">myemolilteddybear</a>; I've decided to sketch on paper, since that's much quicker than using a tablet; then I'll scan it with the scanner my bro, Hwang, got for his birthday (which was this month btw <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/aww.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":aww:" title="Aww" />)...<br /><br />...and I have a few other artworks that I have to colour, such as two <b>Soul Calibur II</b> images. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/w00t.gif" width="23" height="23" alt=":w00t:" title="w00t!" /><br /><br />Okayies... umm... um... oh yeah! Me and my bros are going to be working on drafting ideas for our new sci-fi novel; when there's more info, I'll be sure to update about it. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/d/dance.gif" width="29" height="21" alt=":dance:" title="Dance!" /><br /><br />And I'll get back to messages later today, or tomorrow... I have about... erm... 60+ msgs. I don't mind them at all, it's just that... well, I'm going to take my time, 'cause I'm lazy like that, lol. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /> <br /><br />In other news, I'm not sure how I'm entirely feeling; but I think I'm slowly getting over the virus, sometimes, it feels worse at certain parts of the day, but I think I'm getting better. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/aww.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":aww:" title="Aww" /><br /><br />...oh! And speaking of clubs, I'm working on a Raphael, and Amy, fanclub here; ~<a class="u" href="http://lament-song-of-sorel.deviantart.com/">Lament-Song-of-Sorel</a>, and will have help from my brothers, of course. I still have to write up anything though, so it's kinda under construction right now. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /><br /><br />I already have two <b>Soul Calibur</b> clubs - one on <i>MangaBullet</i>, and one on <i>SheezyArt</i>.<br /><br />MB: <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.mangabullet.com/clubs.php?id=914">[link]</a><br />SA: <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://clubs.sheezyart.com/Project_Soul_Calibur/">[link]</a><br /><br />~<a class="u" href="http://secret-x-link.deviantart.com/">Secret-x-Link</a><br /><br />... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" heigh... ]]></description>

Sorry about that! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /><br /><br />I'm feeling sicker than usual today, and I think it might be because it's rather warm for February right now... which is strange, because I keep hearing we're supposed to get <i>'another'</i> blizzard <i>(last one was a simple heavy snowfall, not anything like a blizzard - but I did hear way out there in the USA, that they got a really beating from the blizzards, including my friend, Steven; who's only recently got back online, I think... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" />)</i><br /><br />Anyways... I finished one art trade, actually I finished it yesterday; but was too sick to upload it last night, and too tired by the time the family computer became free again... so, I just watched my favourite scenes of <b>Blade Runner</b>, with my brothers; before going to sleep last night... it got returned today, since it was only a rental. I wish we could really own it though... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /><br /><br />I should continue colouring Shalie, for ~<a class="u" href="http://darthlexius.deviantart.com/">DarthLexius</a>; but right now, I'm just playing around with writing drafts... I'll most likely continue colouring later this evening, though; since I do want to be able to finish the art trades up already <i>(btw, how are your art trades coming along, guys? <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" />)</i>.<br /><br />Okayies... umm...

And now, I'm going to be doing a third art trade with ~<a class="u" href="http://princessairezen.deviantart.com/">PrincessAirezen</a> <i>(hey Aire-chan! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/aww.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":aww:" title="Aww" />),</i> which leaves one spot open for art trades... although, I might do the last one via the forums, or something. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /><br /><br /><i>(<b>Edit:</b> I found another person - ~<a class="u" href="http://claudec.deviantart.com/">ClaudeC</a> - to do another art trade with, and she happens to be a friend of a friend, too. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" />)</i><br /><br />...oh yeah... the reason for my irritated mood, is because I hate being brushed aside, when I'm trying to be helpful, despite the fact that I happen to be very busy; and my life isn't the easiest going either. Along with the fact that nothing seems to be going good today either... it's all been... boring today. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/c/crying.gif" width="20" height="17" alt=":crying:" title="Crying" /> <br /><br />Argh... sometimes, I wish I was a video game/book/television character - or that they were real - and I could just be with Raphael Sorel, or Darken Rahl; and see them destroy a few hundred villagers... <br /><br />...sorry, I just feel that irritated tonight <i>(but then again, there's the real me who would cry about something like that <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" />).</i><br /><br />~<a class="u" href="http://secret-x-link.deviantart.com/">Secret-x-Link</a><br /><br />... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /> ...<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /> <b>My Group</b> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /><br /><a href="http://ctm-studios.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/c/t/ctm-studios.png" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconctm-studios:" title="ctm-studios"/></a><br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /> <b>Art blog</b> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /><br /><a href="http://compassionatebutterfly.blogspot.com/">In my mind.</a><br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /> <b>Other</b> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /><br /><a href="http://secret-x-link.deviantart.com/journal/22785853/">For me, from others.</a><br /><a href="http://secret-x-link.deviantart.com/journal/22993298/">Statistics of Artwork for others...</a><br /><a href="http://secret-x-link.deviantart.com/journal/22993427/">Completed Art Trades</a><br /><br />... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /> ...<br... ]]></description>

It'll be a little late for the <b>Tekken</b> Christmas+New Year's artworks that I'm working on; but aw well... better late, than never, no?<br /><br />Hmm... all my original artwork will be going up on my group's account though; since this account is meant for fanart <i>(originally, it was meant for <b>Nintendo</b> only, but ah well)</i>. I might also be accepting art trades, and requests, sometime in the future; after I get some more artwork done <i>(since I know I can draw better than the simple artworks I've up on this account <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/razz.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=P" title="=P (Razz)" />)</i>...<br /><br />...anyways, wanted to wish everybody a Merry Christmas, Happy New Year's, and Merry Little Christmas (Irish version of the holiday). ^_^<br /><br />~<a class="u" href="http://secret-x-link.deviantart.com/">Secret-x-Link</a><br /><br /><b>PS.</b> <i>When I get around to it, I'll be making seperate journals for my art trades/requests/other things/etc...</i><br /><br />... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /> ...<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /> <b>My Group</b> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /><br /><a href="http://ctm-studios.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/c/t/ctm-studios.png" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconctm-studios:" title="ctm-studios"/></a><br /><br />... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /> ...<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /> <b>Clubs</b> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /><br />~<a class="u" href="http://soulcaliburivclub.deviantart.com/">SoulCaliburIVClub</a> <br />~<a class="u" href="http://seongminaclub.deviantart.com/">SeongMinaClub</a> <br />~<a class="u" href="http://kilik-fans.deviantart.com/">Kilik-fans</a> <br />~<a class="u" href="http://the-soul-vortex-club.deviantart.com/">The-Soul-Vortex-Club</a><br /><br />* <i>...gotta re-join my old <b>Zelda</b> clubs I was apart of... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/razz.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=P" title="=P (Razz)" /></i><br /><br /> ]]></description>

I'm mostly talking about our now ex-landlord - of <i>*12*</i> long years, and ex-upstairs neighbours - of <i>*6*</i> long years; but there are a few others I'd rather not mention... not even worth mentioning... unfortunately, includes family members... sorry, Gramma... -_-<br /><br />...so, I'd like to quote my brother, Robert aka Bruce, on this subject <i>(also one of my favourite scenes, from <b>Batman Begins</b> ^.^)</i>, since I believe it would go very well here;<br /><br /><b>"...To all of you, uh, all you phonies, all of you two-faced friends, you sycophantic suck-ups who smile through your teeth at me, please leave me in peace. Please go. Stop smiling. It's not a joke. Please leave. The party's over. Get out."</b><br /><i>~Bruce Wayne</i><br /><br />...I couldn't agree better, even if that was just an act for the poor fools' safety, hah! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/razz.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=P" title="=P (Razz)" /><br /><br />Anyways, was mostly updating this to put up some nice requests others have done for me, via the <b>Projects</b> forum - also, have a few requests pending; and I really hope they get them done. ^-^<br /><br /><i>(...although, since I've been let down before, by dealing with lazy artists... argh... I'm a bit jaded from that; but I feel like I can have more faith in these artists, since they don't seem like that type; from what I'm reading. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" />)</i><br /><br />...plus wanted to add my group, ~<a class="u" href="http://ctm-studios.deviantart.com/">CTM-Studios</a>, to my journal, as well. Love you guys. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/g/glomp.gif" width="47" height="20" alt=":glomp:" title="Glomp!" /><br /><br />And that I joined a writing project, which you can learn more about here; <a href="http://forum.deviantart.com/community/projects/1214317/">Fantasy Shared World (Writers wanted!)</a>... <i>(I still gotta get around to filling out the proper form, and stuff... let alone actually writing up something yet... ey ye ye... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/razz.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=P" title="=P (Razz)" />)</i>; about the world created by ~<a class="u" href="http://stuckinahole.deviantart.com/">StuckInAHole</a>.<br /><br />I also wanted to announce that after Christmas, whenever I get all settled again; I'll probably be interested in doing request, and art trades - all fanworks are going up on this account; and all original works are going on my group's account, just so y'all know. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br /><i>(title of journal, because Robert was mentioning the Bob Dylan movie, <b>"I'm Not There"</b>; when I was trying to come up with something.... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ ...umm... okayies, mostly just creating this for joining Soul Calibur clubs... since I came across them (and by the way, in no way am I kinky... I just obsess over Voldo, 'tis all...); and hopefully, within the coming year, I'll be able to upload all the artwork I want to; but am pending on getting a new laptop, tablet, and scanner for Christmas... argh...<br /><br />Anyways, clubs;<br />~<a class="u" href="http://soulcaliburivclub.deviantart.com/">SoulCaliburIVClub</a> <br />~<a class="u" href="http://seongminaclub.deviantart.com/">SeongMinaClub</a> <br />~<a class="u" href="http://kilik-fans.deviantart.com/">Kilik-fans</a> <br />~<a class="u" href="http://the-soul-vortex-club.deviantart.com/">The-Soul-Vortex-Club</a> <br /><br />...when I find the time, I'll go re-join the old Zelda clubs my old accounts were apart of.
