IF YOU CANNOT STAND IT, DON'T READ IT! SPARE ME YOUR SPAM ABOUT EMOS.

Alright deviantART, this is how it goes. Every year, in the month of November, a journal goes up related to suicide, which we know is a touchy subject to many people. This journal is going up early, because it's not even November yet and we're already dying inside.

Three years ago myself and roughly twelve others lost a very dear friend to suicide. To clear the stereotypical emo girl in your head I know you just pictured: She was 15, tall, skinny, long brown hair, cheerleader, and a popular girl. Behind her school friends and her popularity, she was an abused, neglected child. November, three years ago, she decided she had enough. She asked for her friends to help her, but we could do nothing. Sarah committed suicide at the age of 15 on November 21st, 2006. Just a few days before Thanksgiving.

I always write this journal for you, deviantART. The fact that it's coming to you early this year should emphasize something.

It should emphasize how incredibly painful this experience is to all of us who lived it. To this day, three years later, we are STILL blaming ourselves, we are STILL grieving, and we are STILL visiting her grave on a monthly basis.

We did not know what to do in her time of need, and a suicide is an event I hope none of you will ever experience. The lasting effects on "Suicide Survivors" is incredibly profound. Incredibly. This is why every year I devote a journal to it; I don't know who you are, where you are, or whether or not you even care...but if this can help so much as ONE person....I'll know my attempt wasn't in vain.


*Take the person to guidance, a therapist, or if it needs be, the police. Therapists’ and police know how to do their jobs, and guidance will be willing to help direct the person in the right way.

*Talk with them as much as possible. Get the person to express as much feelings as they can. Keeping it bottled inside can be harmful.

*Talk with their parents. Get your own involved. Peer pressure can sometimes be a lovely thing.

*Don't be afraid to search for solutions. Many organizations for Suicide Prevention exist:

Let's throw some statistics at those who are skeptical...

You're thinking to yourself by now "Why am I reading this? I already know about all this stuff...we talked about it in school"

So did we. Sarah's suicide affected about twelve people in our circle of friends, as well as a possible numerous others. And guess what? We had already heard about it all. And yet, we choked.

My goal here is to ask you to please, don't be like us. Don't choke when your loved one becomes suicidal. The aftermath is not a wonderful world...

It's hard to say it, but it's time to say it.
Good-bye, good-bye.

R.I.P. Sarah - November 21, 2006.
It is yet Another November, and we've not forgotten.

I am offically moving out, and heading off to college.
I can't say how much time I'll have on my hands, but I promise to visit old friends, and keep up with my work.

<3

**AN IMPORTANT NOTICE**
I am also reverting ~Th3-Crownless back to the type of account it was originally intended to be - writing.

Starting tonight (I'm hoping I can find the time soon), ALL PHOTOGRAPHY AND ARTWORK WILL BE DELETED FROM ~TH3-CROWNLESS AND RE-SUBMITTED ONTO A NEW ACCOUNT, ~SIDE-REAL. [link]

Eventually, each of my watcher will recieve a note/post/comment again re-enfocing this gigantic move of all of my Photos....

My reason for this is my own. It seems complicated, and insane, but I have a reason.

I'm sure I'll lose the most of the support I've gained from you guys here, but I'd like to say I've learned a lot.

~Th3-Crownless: Poetry and Prose.
~Side-Real: Photography and Artwork.

Until later,

Other than that, a few old photos and drawings may be gone...sorry to everyone who had those favorited in advance. And thank you.

For those who don't know, To Write Love On Her Arms is a growing non-profit organization addressing and reaching out to people with experiences in drug addiction, depression, self-harm, and suicide. There was a girl in my life who fit into these categories once. As what they call a "Suicide Survivor", TWLOHA has touched the hearts of not only myself, but everyone involved at the time this girl was alive. I am writing not to ask you to donate to this cause, but only to be aware of those around you. To be aware of those in a state of depression, and of those inflicting self-harm, so that no-one has to go through the loss that we experienced.

As a less depressing, and less serious matter, it looks as though I may get back into keeping up a Dream Journal again. It is against my will, but I'll be looking at this as a chance to hone my writing skills. Perhaps some of them will be posted here.

Speaking of writing, I still plan to continue working on Raze. Raze has now connected with my drawing skills (which need working on...) - I would love to make Raze into a manga later, as I think it'd be a much better story in such a form. And thus, I also plan to work a lot on my drawing skills.

As far as Photography goes, I've recently hit 200 deviations. Congrats to me. I'm still unsure of my SLR's status (it might need servicing...and it's not under a warranty...) so I'm not quite sure what'll be going on with Photo's. Maybe a few backyard pictures with my little point-and-shoot, but I can't see any mind blowing photography coming anytime soon.

College begins August 29th. I'm still debating on setting up a print account.

Cheers.

The thing is, this isn't due to the battery. We have two of them, and this has happened when the camera was fully charged. This only started just recently, after a day of constant lens changes. Someone suggested that could have caused a problem...but I'd really like to know what's wrong for sure.

Can anyone help?

So I shot roughly 950/1000 pictures on my SD card during my uh, vacation. Once I like, take care of some things, get rid of the jet-lag, and stop thinking in German, I'll have some pictures up here.

But no, really, Europe was amazing. I really enjoyed it. I'd definitely go back if I had the chance.
Stuttgart, Germany
Zweibrucken, Germany
Zurich, Switzerland
Strasboug, France

So, what's up deviantART. Idk, I guess I'm just gonna come here and rant about my plans, because March was a long-ass time ago.

Raze
Idk if anyone could tell, but I've lost all my motivation. All of it. Yes, that had to be bolded....anyway..uhm, so, Senior Finals start this week, and one of those days, after I waste another 2 hours of life in that school thing, I plan to sit down and put on some metal and type for like 10 hours. And see where that gets us.

Uhm, as for photography...Many grats to Once [link] and ESP - Cell Block "Awesome" 3 [link] for winning me two recognitions in an art show. Also to Apotheosis [link] for winning a contest. I got a $10 WaWa gift card...hecks yeah.

But yeah, I plan to keep taking photographs. No way to get better unless you keep practicing, right? Graduation (and like a million parties) is really soon, as well as a trip to Germany. Once I'm there I'm going to be the biggest tourist you'll ever see..no joke.

So, yeah..peace out.

~Th3-Crownless was originally formed to be a joint-page between myself and Mark, .

For those of you who are new, Mark and I both wrote Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: Repent [link] a collaborative Gundam Fan-fiction, which was originally going to be the only thing this account would upload. MSGS: Repent has two other parts to the Saga, MSGS: Vehemence and MSGS: Crimson, both of which we never got around to producing because by the time MSGS: Repent was finished, our school lives had gotten too busy and different for us to keep up with two more collaborative works.

The two of us author's then agreed that either of us could upload our own work, on the same page, while trying to promote MSGS: Repent. So, in accordance, I began to post things which I created. Mark, however, felt he wasn't good enough to put his work on the web, and thus never uploaded anything.

Because of this, he's told me ~Th3-Crownless is no longer a joint account, but mine. As long as I give him the credit for co-writing MSGS: Repent, which we have been stressing all along as a collaborative work, we'd have two separate pages.

Thus, Mark of ~Th3-Crownless has moved here.


Whether or not he uploads any of his work, well that's all up to him.

I was pleased, in my opinion, even with the comprises they made (considering the thing is about 3 hours long anyway), the movie was pretty faithful to the comic. Also epic.

Go read the comic, then go see the movie.

On another note..so it's been like, 3 months since we've updated the journal. Wow.

I'm in the process of adding a watermark to all of my photos, and maybe a border? just to look nice. I've been hearing so many stories about art theft that I've become paranoid, even if my work is on a lower level. Still think it'd be a good idea..and doing that should take like, 3 days. Woohoo!

Whelp, 2008 ends tonight...like, holy crap. Lol. Where the heck does time go?

We promised you guys a lot for the year of 2008...obviously, mostly all of it didn't happen. We apologize, but as much as the two of us enjoy our collaborative Gundam fanfics, our senior year of high school has been extremely hectic, and we don't get paid to write em...so there's no motivation. We have many things planned for our story line, which is a continuation of Repent, but alas, we can no longer make any promises. The two of our schedules and events conflict, and there isn't really that much time in school to write the stories.

Anywho, we wish everyone a Happy New Year, and good luck! And, you had all better keep true to those New Years Resolutions....OR ELSE!!!

Alright deviantART, this is how it goes. Every year, in the month of November, a journal goes up related to suicide, which we know is a touchy subject to many people.

Reason being, two years ago, we (Your authors, Rob and Mark) lost a very dear friend to suicide. To clear the stereotypical emo girl in your head I know you just pictured: She was 15, tall, skinny, long brown hair, cheerleader, and a popular girl. One of us could have been dating her at one point.

This is the reason we bring you this journal, deviantART.

We did not know what to do in her time of need. For the sake of those who may experience this, we'd just like to spread the word.

*Take the person to guidence, a theropist, or if it needs be, the police. Theropists and police know how to do their jobs, and guidence will be willing to help direct the person in the right way.

*Talk with them as much as possible. Get the person to express as much feelings as they can. Keeping it bottled inside can be harmful.

So, today my manager called me (I'm a cashier at a supermarket), and asked if I could work today even though I had requested the day off. I said no, as I had just gotten over being sick and I was having knee trouble. He was suspicious, and asked if I had planned out being sick to take the day off (Yeah, 'cuz I just plan to be sick 1/7 days of the week). I told him the truth of why I had requested off that day; I had a sparing match scheduled with a friend (Which I had to postpone due to my injury).

My manager was slightly intrigued (we switch managers every 4 months with another store, thus he knew nothing much about me). He asked questions. I let him know I trained Shotokan Karate, and I had another job teaching the martial art on days I was unavailable. As far as the spar goes, it is a past time my friends who train another style and I set up. We are of the same skill level, so we enjoy sparing each other to test our own MA style against one completely different.

Then he asked me this question (after learning our matches were unrefereed but controlled as best as possible). "Oh, fighting. That's kind of barbaric, isn't it?"

I laughed the comment off (since he's my manager, I couldn't really tell him off). But nonetheless, his question bothered me.

Fighting is one of the things I'm good at. I've got numerous medals and trophies sitting on my bookcase for sparing. I practice and condition daily for my passion of Martial Arts.

Martial Arts is not a sport invented by barbarians. It is a learned skill and a way of life which teaches of self-discipline, determination, respect, honor, and patience. It is a sport invented for self-defense, only to be used in a real life situation as a last resort, not for picking fights because we can. A serious martial artist can display more defined characteristics than any normal person can. We are just as disciplined as a military man or woman would be.

Yet, you call us barbaric? Why? Why is it you can walk into any restruant and see photos of any sport EXCEPT for martial arts? Why is it you can walk into Dick's Sporting Goods, and only find supplies for boxing, but never for martial artists? Why are we frowned upon?

Isn't it barbaric?

Isn't it barbaric that a martial artist is one of the most disciplined people you will ever meet? Isn't it barbaric that martial arts is a form of self-defense?

So what if I enjoy sparing? Yeah, that's right; I just said I ENJOY fighting. You know the lame anime's that have a character who enjoys fighting someone stronger than they are, no matter whether or not they win or lose? In fact, they'd rather be challenged with an enemy better than they are?

In all truth, that is me when it comes to fighting. I seriously ENJOY it. I ENJOY putting my specifically trained skills against someone else's. I ENJOY fighting an opponent strong, faster, and better than I am. In fact, those are the people I look for. I ENJOY A GOOD, LONG, HARD FIGHT.

Does this make me a barbarian? Does it make me an animal that I am talented at Martial Arts, and so I take it one step further to perfect my skills in sparing, and challenge instructors and students of different martial arts styles? Does it make me an animal that I push my body to its limits inside and outside the Dojo to further condition myself for my sparing?

Does it really make me an animal?
Heh, a passion for Martial Arts. Isn't it just barbaric?

Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: Vehemence is our next Gundam installment in a line of 3. Vehemence is told from the viewpoint of four members of The Wulf Project, our fairy tale terrorist group whom everyone loves.

Vehemence will explain things that made no sense in Repent, such as why the Gundam Repent was so important to the Project, who Lauren Anders and the Encounter really were, etc.

As far as production goes, Mark (aka Kri_Wulf) and I (Jukebox_Hero) are being very careful with all the small details. We are still in the planning stage, which means we are reviewing Gundam Repent very thoroughly and picking out the things we need to explain, and the things we're going to leave for the 3rd installment.

Please remember that life as a Senior is quite hectic. That thing called reality is all like "Yo dawg, let's be bestest friends "

Chapter one will be up as soon as possible, no set date yet.

We are quite proud of its success, as the story was originally created out of boredom, and never intended to be anything serious. We'd just like to remind you of a few things, and answer some questions.

Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: Repent is a fan-fiction created by two high school students. It finished with 10 Chapters, ranging from 11-15 hand written pages and 4-7 typed pages, and one Epilogue of two hand written pages. It is 142 hand written pages, and 64 typed pages, totaling 1,571 Paragraphs, 34,224 Words, and 186,120 Characters (with spaces). It was written in two notebooks, which were handed off between the two authors each chapter (with the exception of Chapter 10). The story has intrigued both Gundam Fans, and people who've never even heard of the series. Repent was started in 2006, and it ended one year later in 2007. If it was animated as is, Repent would most likely be 5-7 episodes long.

What the heck? you said this was a GUNDAM FAN FIC! Where's all the Mobile Suit fighting!?
Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: Repent is indeed a Gundam Fan fiction. However, the story is not about the Gundam's and Mobile Suit's themselves. The story is about the people who were unwillingly thrown into a war which they never supported, and now have no way out of. The story is about them just trying to survive, and keep each other, since they've lost everything. Just like the movie Cloverfield wasn't about the monster, Repent isn't about the Suit's. Plus, I don't know if you've ever tried to write a battle between two or more Mobile suit's, but it is incredibly hard to do.

I'm confused...where/when does Repent's storyline take place?
Where: Repent begins on a fictional colony called Cyrus 8. Cyrus is destroyed by our baddies, The Wulf Project. Repent takes us from the middle of space, to Germany, Earth, to Victoria Base on the East coast of Africa, to an abandoned colony (PLANT) called L-21, located in between Earth and the moon.
When: Repent begins on January 24th, CE 71. This date is one day before January 25th, the fall of the colony Heliopolis and the start of MSG: SEED. On February 14th, the Repent cast has settled into the Orphanage in Germany, while SEED's crew is one day away from beginning the Africa campaign with Desert Dawn. On March 2nd, when the Repent crew leaves for Victoria to give the Gundam to Andrew Waltfeld, he has already been defeated by The Archangel as of 2 days before. Also, on Feb. 13th, ZAFT takes control of Victoria Base. Repent crew arrives there March 3rd, and leaves March 6th. On June 18th, Earth Alliance takes control of Victoria. However, Repent ends on March 7th, nearly 2 months before Operation SPITBREAK. After Forever takes place one day after the Junius Treaty, the official end of The First Blood Valentine War. For more reference - [link]

Why was Repent so meaningful to those Wulf Project people? And why didn't ZAFT want to take it at Victoria Base?
This, we will not tell you. This is to be revealed in Vehemence, the upcoming storyline.

Okay, who the heck are The Wulf Project?
The Wulf Project is our fictional Terrorist organization. They are lead by Don Wulf, who hunts the main character Rob as he tries to escape with the Repent. The Wulf Project are naturals who are quite keen on the slogan "For the Preservation of our Blue and Pure world!". They have grown quite a bit, and they use a variety of stolen and repaired Mobile Suits. More on their actions will be revealed with Vehemence, as well as more about Don Wulf.

You know, the cast was originally with a ship called Encounter, who didn't seem to do much, and weren't around for long. Wtf?
The Encounter and her crew helped Rachel after Rob was shot at the mall. While they housed the Repent crew, they had been instructed to join Le Cruset's team at the Battle of Artemis, and further more the chase to the Battle of Orbit. However, they were intercepted by The Wulf Project, and Encounter never made it.

But, the Encounter's captain, Lauren? Yeah, she knew things about Rob's dad and about Don Wulf. What's going on there?
To be revealed later. Not sure when yet, but later.

Where'd you get the character names from?
We use our own names (with fake last names) for our characters. We never planned to continue with Repent, and in the beginning, rather than make up names, we just used our own names as well as our friends.

Who do Rob and Rachel run into while they're traveling across Africa? Some terrorist g... ]]> ~Th3-Crownless http://Th3-Crownless.deviantart.com/journal/20310156/ http://Th3-Crownless.deviantart.com/journal/20310156/ Wed, 03 Sep 2008 15:32:19 PDT for forever!

Seriously this time, Repent is so close to being over it's not even funny.

With only 12 hand written pages to type up and having 57 pages (1,423 paragraphs, 30,147 words, and 163,682 characters) typed to date, I really can't wait to finish typing the story. And put it up here. w00t!

So yeah, look out for it soon. Unfortunately, there was absolutely no progress made on our next story, Vehemence. For those who don't know, Vehemence is from the Wulf's point of view, and may explain things Repent left vague.

Kudos.

So yeah, once again, Th3-Crownless went to go see Nightwish at the Trocadero Theater in Philadelphia, PA. 2nd time they were there on their Bye Bye Beautiful Tour.

And, if anything, THEY WERE 10x BETTER THAN LAST YEAR!

For one thing, Annette wasn't so nervous. Her performance was amazing this time around. And she even refused to take a beer from Emppu xD

And holy shit, her hair went from long black to short blond. o.O

Let's see what I can remember..Lol.
-Opened with Bye Bye Beautiful (again)
-Dark Chest of Wonders
-Amaranth
-The Siren
-Whoever Brings the Night
-Heart I Once Had
-The Islander
-Slaying the Dreamer
-Poet and the Pendulum
-Wishmaster
-7 Days to the Wolves (<- First time seeing that live. Really good.)
-Ended with Wish I Had An Angel.


Yeah man, it was awesome. Seriously, I love Nightwish. Always worth the trip to see them again to me.

So, yeah, omg.

Last night I attended The First Annual Rockstar Mayhem Festival in Camden, NJ. And let me tell you what; Holy fucking shit! This 8 hour Megaconcert was so ownage, you have no idea!

There were 3 stages, 2 lesser and the main stage.

Jagermeister Stage (lesser): Jager Band, Five Finger Death Punch, Airbourne, Walls of Jericho, Machinehead.

Hot Topic Stage (lesser): 36 Crazyfists, Suicide Silence, Black Tide, The Red Chord, Underoath.

Rockstar Energy Drink Stage (MAIN STAGE!): Mastodon, DragonForce, Disturbed, Slipknot.

So yeah, I went to see DragonForce and Disturbed. And it was fucking kick ass! Our seats were the very last row, but it didn't matter because the stadium was inclined anyway, and we were dead center. So hellz yeah!

I think I'll try to put up some of the better pictures of the tour that I got. It was well worth it!

We promised to get the end of Repent up to you by the middle of June. As you can see, that didn't happen. We also promised to give you a little taste of Vehemence by July. That also didn't happen.

Yeah, well, here's what we got.

Jukebox has been busy with stuff and hasn't had much of a chance to type up Repent. Lame excuse, we know, but we're gonna stick with that.

As for Vehemence, Kri currently has the notebook. And Kri is stuck working on his Uncle's farm for the summer, out in the middle of nowhere. So, there's no telling where Vehemence is going this summer.

So, yeah, we know..

Another time to carry the colors again.

So, yeah. Indestructible by Disturbed. New album. Totally worth the $15. Go buy it.

There has never been an album off which I have liked every single song..until now.

Yeah, so..GO BUY IT!

Anyway, next week is the last week of school. We don't have to stay all day; just come in, take the final, and leave. So, after carpooling 50 people around and wasting my gas, I plan to work on Repent. Yeah.

Every broken enemy will know
That their opponent had to be invincible.
I'll have you know that I've become indestructible.

Quite some time ago, we promised Repent chapters to be up by March. As readers may have noticed, that didn't quite happen.

We'd like to apologize for the very long delay. As some of you may know, or else you will be finding out quite soon; Junior year is extremely hectic. And don't forget, we've got our own personal lives to live.

I try to work on Repent as much as possible, honestly. Beleive you me, I'd like to have the story finished and up here on Deviant by summer. I'm not quite sure if that'll be possible, but I'll try.

Here, want some Repent Stats?

We've returned from the 45th Annual ECSKA Karate Championships (fancy name isn't it?) in Williamsburg, VA.

The tournament was orginized some weird way..but nonetheless, it was good. There was a split in the Karate orginzations - The ISKF broke off from the JKA. I'm sure this is all just chinese to most of you - but this means there were far less clubs at the tournament.

Kri_Wulf placed 3rd in Kata, his first medal ever. Jukebox_Hero placed 2nd in Sparing. Congradulations!

In other news, as said, Jukebox and his girlfriend and Kri went down together. We stayed in a shitty 1 bedroom hotel. We stayed about a block away from the William & Mary Collage Campus, which was beautiful. A few students asked us if we attened..we should have snuck into a party or something.

We managed to go sightseeing in Merchants Square, and got some percuilar pictures. Other than the horrible sleeping and driving for 6 hours, the trip was quite good.

But next time, we're flying.....

That's right ladies and gents, guess who's fired up for the East Coast Shotokan Tournament this weekend in Williamsburg, Virginia! I know I am - God I can't wait.

Myself, Kri_Wulf, and my girlfriend are taking my car on this 6 hour drive from Philly to Virginia - I hope we don't get lost!!!

This karate tournament is to go from April 11th to April 13th, so if we never come back..we got lost.

Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: Vehemence - our tie-in story with our ever-loved Repent. Vehemence features a tale from the view of members of the Wulf Project. It covers that which Repent left in questions.

Vehemence will offically go into production shortly..as soon as deviant gets Chapter 8 of Repent.

They may not be working - but we sure are! And we don't get a pay for it, either

We've currently got 3 (Yeah - not one, or two..but three) stories to bring to you.

Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: Repent:
Repent..it's always in the journal. As of this moment, there are only a few (51..yeah, that's a few o.O) pages left to type before you've read it all!! Lyk OMG!!

So yeah, that's comming up soon.

Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: Vehemence:
Alright, so here's the deal with this. Vehemence was originally going to be called Crimson, which we had announced as our tie-in story with Repent. So we got started writing Crimson...and we hated it.

So after changing the title litterally 5 times (and probably more to come), we've decided to just restart. We haven't given up on the tie-in, we're just annoyed we changed so much in Repent for it, then decided not to use it. This change is the reason Repent 8 is still not posted.

With hope, we'll be starting Vehemence soon and sticking with it :l

Aus
Aus (German - translates to Out) is Jukebox_Hero's current obsession. Aus features the use of Repent's protagonist's as their actual self's - as Repent takes place in the far future, and Aus does not. It also features the correct use of Wulf Project - also originally not designed to be used as Repent uses them. Aus is a fun side story Jukebox has finally started and stuck with. Hopefully it'll get up here.

So yeah - stick around; maybe something intresting will happen.

Happy New Year Deviantart. Hope you all have your New Year's Resolutions ready - we do.

As for here on deviantart, our Resolution is to bring you something you've been waiting for: the end of Gundam Repent. And we're giving it to you before the end of March.

Hope you hold us too that. Listen up - if you don't get it by the end of March - slap us

We'd like to take this time to say that we will most likely not be around deviant until these issues be sorted out. The deciding factor here will be the return of Jukebox_Hero's computer - which has fallen vitim to a virus. Though it'd be great to get this sorted and have Repent coming to you, it is near the bottom of his priority list.

We would like to inform you that if you need, need to get a hold of one of us, you may use either the Yahoo ID or The MSN ID below. Please do not use the AIM ID, as you will most likely not get a reply. These two ID's are prefered over sending us a note or a comment here, on deviant, as we do not know how often we will be here.

Thank you for your time.

It doesn't matter.

But those of you who do know - pay close attention.

We would like to take this time to say - keep close to your friends. It may sound really corney, or really stupid to most of you, but really. Make sure they don't 'fall down'.

We made that mistake a year ago. A friend of ours 'fell down'. Though we tried to help her, we couldn't pick her back up. Make sure you look out for those slight indications. Anything at all - and help them immediatly.

Now she is nothing more then a photograph - a memory - a tombstone.

So make sure you watch over those you love. Make sure they never go under. It could be the biggest mistake of your life.


Pictures of you, pictures of me - remind us all of what we used to be.

It's hard to say it, time to say it. Good-bye, good-bye.

Somethings in this world you just can't change. And somethings you can't see until it's too late.

Because I'm falling down. With people standing round. But before I hit the ground is there time, is there someone to help me?

And the shadow of the day will embrace the world in gray. And the sun will set for you.

Anyway, I'll be back around more and more as I finish recovering. We've both been doing lots of writing and planning.

What's next?
As Kri said, we had to redo a few chapters in Repent. Luckily, we didn't skrew up too much. So production will continue, and chapter 7 will be here shortly.

As for what he called a "sequel" - Sequel's look bad. I'd like our readers to understand, It's Not A Sequel!!

The next story, titled Gundam Crimson, is more of another Repent. It goes follows the same basic story line, and explains that which Repent didn't answer. We planned to tell you this after the last Repent chapter was set out here. Didn't quite work.

Also, we have two newer writings due to appear.

One Final Dream - One Final Dream (OFD) was created by Jukebox. He was told, and is in the process of being forced, to keep a dream journal because of a night-time condition he suffers. He's decided to use this as a way to touch up on his writing skills as well as keep the journal.

You have already been introduced to one of them, titled The Game.

Once More - Once More (OM) is our approach to writers block. We recieved a suggestion to write the stories behind songs as we see them. In writing the story behind songs, we're thinking up ideas, and could trigger a way around that stupid writers block.

These two should be introduced soon.

Enjoy deviant.

It seems as though we had people waiting and waiting for Chapter 7 of Repent. The fact of the matter is; we've been too..busy..for Repent. We love Repent, don't get us wrong, but we cannot always see to her needs every second.

Chapter 7 through the end is currently being a little redone, as after some research we figured out we did just the oppisite of our plans. We currently only have one person working on this issue.

Up and coming:
-Chapter 7 Repent - ASAP
-Chapter 8 Repent - ASAP
-Regard Repent's "Sequel"__Though it is not truly a sequel, we feel as though this must be done. Right now I am at a loss of words, so we're going to call it a sequel.

This sequel, titled "Crimson", was due to launch January '08. By then we planned to have all of Repent typed, 3-hole punched, and sumbitted here. Though it's not the end of the year, we have little time left. The launch date may be changed as our lives tend to get increasingly hectic.

For the time being, I will attempt to keep you informed if any Repent-connected questions arrive until Jukebox_Hero is able to return. I felt I'd take this free time to answer a few questions in one journal.

Thank you for your time.

I don't even know where to start, so excuse the web-slang here...LYKOMGWTFBBQ!!@!121!!@!!!!!!!

As a birthday present, I was given a VIP ticket to the Nightwish concert in Phillidelphia. The concert was yesterday, October 16. The VIP ticket included meeting the band and getting stuff signed.

LYK OMG!!

The concert itself was amazing. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!

Paradise Lost was the opening band. Though I was never intrested in them, I might check them out now. They were pretty good.

But Nightwish..OMG!
-Opened with Bye Bye Beautiful
-Dark Chest of Wonders
-Amaranth
-Sahara
-Ever Dream
-Nemo
-Slaying the Dreamer
-Poet and the Pendulum
-Wish I Had An Angel
-Eva
-The Islander
-One or two I can't recall (soz lol)
-Ended with the ever loved Wishmaster

I admit I was a little bummed at not being able to see Tarja preform live - but Anette was great! Afterwards we got to meet them while they signed our stuff. Had the line not been moving so fast I woulda asked them to sign my concert shirt >>

-Shook hands with Marco, Anette, and Jukka
-Jukka joked around with me (ever faithful fanboy)
-Marco called me pretty.

This was a complete change from my depressed mood the past week (2 friends of mine victims in a car crash) And, of course, getting to meet your favortie band for even 5 minutes is amazing.

They were awesome people, their concert was amazing, their music is awesome...Nightwish fans out there -- GO SEE THEM!!

We did meet some nice characters there. Kri got a huge from L, who later ran away when I tried to hunt him down for a picture >>

We ran into Team Rocket, Axel and Roxas, Inyuasha, the Death Note Cast, Cloud, 3 of Organization XIII, Super Mario, Naruto, and many more. Pretty intresting night.

For starters, names?
Jukebox_Hero: Rob
Kri_Wulf: Mark

What are your personalities like?
Jukebox_Hero: Don’t see how these two questions are relevant. I’m normally a laid-back kind of guy. It takes a heck of a lot to piss me off, unless you hit just the right spot. My life style: wing it. What happens, happens, and I’m just gonna deal with it one way or another. I’m extremely determined – if I get started on something, it’ll bug me until I finish. I have absolutely no problem pushing myself – no pain no gain. I judge based on first appearance and see the world in white and black (friends and foes). People tend to see me as a leader and a peacemaker.
Kri_Wulf: I’m extremely lazy. No, really, I’m probably the laziest person you’ll ever meet. If it were up to me, I’d really do nothing but eat, sleep, and poop 365 days a year. I’m gay, have no problem saying it, and absolutely will fight for my rights. Despite being outspoken, I tend to spend my time with my friends joking around with them. If you’ve got a frown, I’ll turn it upside down. Unlike my friend, I hate leading people. It’s extremely hard for me. People tend to see me as too optimistic for my own good and comedic.

When did you decide to begin writing?
Jukebox_Hero: 6th Grade.
Kri_Wulf: Uh..Not until just recently.

What inspires you to write?
Jukebox_Hero: Usually the items I read or day to day experiences.
Kri_Wulf: It’s fun, gives me something to do. You know, staying off the streets and all. I’ve always admired authors of well known novels. They coulda started out like us.

Do you enjoy writing?
Jukebox_Hero: Yes, it’s a way to sit down and let my thoughts speak for themselves.
Kri_Wulf: Yup, keeps me entertained.

How often do you write?
Jukebox_Hero: Something usually goes down on paper at least twice a day..Heck, If I ever put everything together I could have written a full-length novel.
Kri_Wulf: Not often, when I’m bored. Maybe it’s just little things or ideas for our story.

Why are you still writing?
Jukebox_Hero: I lead a semi-hectic life – writing down experiences or random ideas is just one of my "escape methods".
Kri_Wulf: I’m bored. There’s absolutely nothing, and I mean nothing, for me to do anymore. When you write, your imagination can create whatever it wants to create.

Why is this story (Repent) co-written?
Jukebox_Hero: Well, we both wanted to be a part of it, so we split up the chapters.
Kri_Wulf: See above^

You two are completely different people – how did you get this to work?
Jukebox_Hero: Uh..It just does?
Kri_Wulf: Erm, well, I guess it has something to do with the fact we’ve been friends for quite some time. Or the fact we’re always talking, or the fact we have the same interests, or the fact opposites attract..yeah.

Is there a secret to keep yourself writing?
Jukebox_Hero: Well..as long as it’s something you enjoy. You just kinda continue with it.
Kri_Wulf: Don’t think so?

Is there a secret to reading a book?
Jukebox_Hero: Pick your favorite character, make yourself that character, and read. As you get into it, you’ll want to know increasingly more about what happens to you/that character.
Kri_Wulf: “Just Do It”.

Do either one of you plan to go anywhere with writing?
Jukebox_Hero: Who knows? I’ll wing it. Heck, I don’t even know what I’ll be doing in 2 hours, much less 4 years from now.
Kri_Wulf: Probably not. Writing might remain a hobby of mine. Truly, I plan on taking up Medical Science. (<-I know, aiming high huh?)

The final sentance of Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: Repent, today (9/11/07) at 1:27 PM. We're saddened, yet overjoyed by this event.

We enjoyed writing this for our readers, and thank those of them that offered ideas. Repent ended beautifully, and If Jukebox isn't too lazy, you'll be reading it soon!

We would like to address a few things right now. These are just a few questions / comments from our readers and supporters that we would like to address.

We would like to remind those readers that it is not just one of us writing the story - Jukebox_Hero wrote even chapters, Kri_Wulf wrote odd chapters. It is Jukebox_Hero that has more access to a computer, thus he is the one bringing the story to Deviant.

We are not intrested in another writer. Our system works well, and we do not feel like changing it. Sorry, we're just lazy butts.

Someone asked us if it was the end of Repent - forever. Others have pressured us to keep working and make a second. Perhaps when you read the final chapters, you'll understand some of our hesitation there. Do keep in mind that we are 11th graders - big year for us. Tons of testing, graduation projects, collage searching, getting our lisences, planning our future, trying not to fail school, ect. We ask you keep this in mind when asking why we have not uploaded / worked on another story.

We are always looking for contests. Those of you that know us in real life (get an account already guys - it's free!), do feel free to notify us anytime. Otherwise, send us a note here or contact one of us though AIM.


What's next for Repent?
-Chapters 5 + 6 entered into an upcoming conest.
-Repent 6 - Finish uploaded here.
-Another story - ties in with Repent? (hint hint)


REMEBER THE FALLEN - 9/11

In any event, I'm being forced/forcing myself to get to work typing. for a few reasons; We want to get it over with (all planned out and everything), there are fans who won't shut up about it (they've tried stealing the notebook. Only we are aloud to touch the notebook -_- You know who you are), and for the upcoming contests!!

So, all intrested be on the look out for Repent Ch. 6 soon. It be coming.

I'M BACK TO NORMAL!! W00TZ ><

Yeah..anyway..back to normal - extremely happy. Spent all day sparing my friend. God how I missed sparing (thanks mate!)

Can't believe I'm insane enough to be happy to finally get back to the running, pushups, and situps daily; but I am!

Got a few things to upload (what better to do while in bed rest?), these including the rest of my "Who's That Pokemon?" little saga-like thing and a contest drawing. Hope to get Repent 6 up soon. 7 and up will have to wait - Kri stole the notebook D:

Thank you Kri for the journal update, appreciate it (and thank you too hinapeach). Right now it'd my 2nd day of being up and around, and man how I missed this peice of junk machine (even though it hurts to sit here).

Yes, I did plan to have Repent up. Sorry folks. It'll come up soon, I promise. Well, okay, as soon as I'm feeling better. Kri currently has the notebook, chapter 10 is being written and the story is coming to its close. Too bad I'm so far behind with the typing..

You guys haven't heard much from me lately. Jukebox has been doing all the work around here (he'll make a good housewife someday ). I usually have no internet access untill Sunday afternoon every week, and by then I'm just not in the mood anyway.

I'm here now, however, to relay some news. Jukebox had planned to get Repent chapters 6-8 up here in the next two weeks, starting today.

To all those we're keeping waiting; there was an accident. Not like we said something wrong accident, no. A two car accident involving 4 people. Our lucky friend Jukebox being one.

I'm not sure when he'll be up and running for us again. I hope it's soon. Last I heard, his status seemed fair. Repent, however, is going to have to wait.

Regret to pass it on, but we had people waiting. I thought it'd be right to let them know.

Anyways - big news (for us at least)

REPENT HIT 100 HANDWRITTEN PAGES!!!

9 Chapters, 106 pages, two writers, 1 reward, and a few fans. Congrats Repent!

We plan to find a way to attract more viewers to Repent; we want criticism!! (<--and a spell check) We'll be on the look out for contests and chances to 'show-off', if you will, Repent. Anyone hear of anything, do tell us.

Chapter 6 is just about finished being typed. I aim for it to be put up around noon tommrow (depending on how I feel after half a 21st bday party, of course). Be on the look out for it!

Master Camp was fun. I enjoyed all my classes, and loved the instructors. Didn't mind the morning runs, they felt good and got me warrmed up for training, Coulda done it all without the whistle though..First thing I did when I got home was sleep the rest of the day.

We had fun otherwise. Kri went on his first kyack trip on which I tortured him and rocked the thing back and forth. Played some tennis, soccer, and football. We also planned out the last chapters of Repent.

Yes, I said last chapters. Repent's coming to a close. It seems like I'll be a little busy this week, but now that its summer and I have the notebook I should type a little and put stuff up.

Friday - Monday, both Kri and I will be away at Master Camp, which I call "Karate Boot-Camp". It's a Shotokan Camp lasting a week long. Karate masters from around the world come to the camp and teach classes all day long. We wake by the whistle, run by the whistle, attend our classes by the whistle, eat our meals by the whistle, and go to bed by the whistle. No, that wasn't exageratting. As you can guess, I now have a hate for whistles. Poor Kri thinks it's funny..just wait till the end of this weekend pal.

Uh, I said I'd try to get Repent 5 up, and I know I'm so fricken behind on the schedule I set for us. Shi-.....stuff happens. If I get the time tommrow before I leave I'll put it up. When we're not training or eating we'll be working on Repent though. Have some fresh ideas now.

Yeah..

Uh, last week of school is this upcoming week. Soo, probably be busy with finals and such.

Upcoming friday, June 8th, is two things. 1. End of school. 2. Master camp.

Kri_Wulf and I will be away for the weekend. If we're not busy with Karate bootcamp, we'll work a little on Repent.

Kri currently has the second notebook, working on Chapter 8. I may try to get up to 6 online.

Idk yet. Just a little update-ish-thing..

Unfortunetly, it wasn't first. But heck, we didn't think we'd get that far!

We entered that contest with a shrug, just for fun and mostly because the english teacher told us to. We heard about the cash prize, but didn't really care too much.

But hey, 2nd place? Rock on.

Congradulations Repent; you've been recoginized.


On another note, I had wonderful 16th birthday this monday. Since I know you'll be here, thanks for the mask and cape buddy...anyone know where Batman went? I seem to have lost him..

Wondeful night too, if you get what I'm saying ;D

If Repent wins..It'd be too awesome. If we don't, at least we got this far.

Judging is tommrow. There are only 3 peices, Repent being one of them.

I had a friend on campus at the time. This guy is like my older brother. Where were you when you heard about the shootings? I was in 3rd period, Math class. I was told 4 were dead and 17 were wounded.

My first thought; Oh god, I'll have to ask my friend what happened.

6th period rolled around; 22 dead, 30 some injured. My thoughts; Oh shit.. By now I was nervous to no end.

8th period, Biology. The news: 33 dead, numerous injured. My thoughts; Holy shit..holy shit..holy shit.. Now I couldn't sit still. I wanted to use that cell phone so badly.

As soon as that bell rang I called my friend. Voice message right away, his cell was off. I was in panic. I didn't hear from him all that night and all this morning until his text message around 11:30. He himself was on campus, was not harmed, and didn't say if anyone he knew had been injured. Though he sounded alright.

I know there are many people and families out there who were not as lucky as we were. Please, a moment of silence for them. Never forget the day.

Second: I hope to get Repent chapters 5 and 6 up here sometime. I really want to type it now..but I've been so out of it that my mind just doesn't want to keep track of things..and yeahh..

Uhm, thridly..We've entered Repent into a school contest. Entry fee was $7, which I thought was way too much. There is a cash prize, however. Who knows, maybe there'll be a miricale.

Fouth..this is the last two months of 10th grade for us. Things are going to get busy pretty fast. I myself have 2 videos to make, 10 pictures to shoot (5 of which are being put in the art show, so they can't be half-assed..), a load of CAD work, 2 papers, 3 projects..and, of course, finals. Production of Repent may slow down till summer, but we hope not to slip.

Thanks for your time.

We are The Crownless, a group of two people (Kri_Wulf and Jukebox_Hero) who are working together on a Gundam Fanfiction. We've named it Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: Repent.

Repent is currently 6 chapters long, each chapter being a required 15 pages or more. Repent has already eaten up one notebook, we've moved onto our second!

Each chapter is written by one of us. Jukebox_Hero writes the odd chapters (1,3,5,7, ect) and I write the even (2,4,6,8, ect). The notebook is taken by Jukebox at the end of each chapter and typed up, thus delivered here to you, deviant!

We thank our current watchers, and we hope to get a chance to become more public. We're looking for contests to enter. Please, if you hear of one, send us a note!
-----
Easter's almost here! Happy early Easter from Kri_Wulf! I'll be away for the rest of the week, so I won't be here to wish you a good time.

Jukebox will have chapter 5 of Repent up, hopefully soon! I don't know what's up with him, since he didn't answer my calls today (hint hint Jukebox!)

We hope to keep Repent going strong. Happy early Easter Deviant!

All those cute little "ilu(insert love here)" and "i<3(insert love here)" and "xoxoxoxoxoxox(loves name here)" and "(name)<3(name)". Yeah, know those? Usually see 'em on Myspace and AIM Profiles and MSN.

Yeah..uh...not many people online care!

Going around boasting you're in love only makes the couples who've been together for years look down at you and think "Hahaha....nubs" before continuing on to real making out. Not the little kissing things you couples do. No no no, real making out.

All those stupid little "i<3u" above? Yeah, they're nothing but obnoxious. Tell the world you're taken once..then leave it alone unless they ask. Really, it's none of the worlds business.

Bottom note here...Do not come to me with your dang love problems! I cannot help!
"Well tommrow could you just ask your gf if she'd ever say/do (insert question)?"
No, I will not. I don't know if you've noticed..but my gf is most likley has a different personalitiy then yours. Which means you're outta luck buddy.

....Yeah so that felt good...In any event, chapter 4's done, I'm just too lazy + ticked right now to have a war with deviant and add all the italics and bolds and spacing and have it make me upload it again.

Chapters 4 and 5 will be added at the same time. Spring breaks here, maybe you'll see chapter 6 as well.

Jukebox_Hero placed 2nd in sparing, w00tz0rs!!1121!!!!@!!

It was crazy; there was so many people there! Nothing I'd ever imagine. On the floor, the action just never stopped. Aside from all the martial arts, a kid threw up right in front of the door, and another kid was nailed in the face durring a sparing match. Poor kids.

*ahem* For all of you just now joining us..

44th Annual East Coast Shotokan Karate Championships were this weekend in Baltimore, MD. I'm an Orange belt, Jukebox is first degree, Black belt. I didn't place in anything, but he did.

We plan to start picking up on Repent, kinda. It's down to 1 more marking period, then school's out for summer!

I've been busy. Was out of school sick for a week, and had a s**t load (excuse the french) of work to catch up on. I'm sure it's happened to you too. That's kept me well busy.

On top of that, both Kri and I will be away for the weekend. There's a martial art tournament in Maryland I'm obligated to go to (love being blackbelt) and he's tagging along. Kri's first tournament, yay him!!

Might get some writing done on Repent. Defintly no typing unless I get that done in the next hour. In between packing, that might be hard.

Ttyl deviantART.

For any fans of Repent out there, sorry. I came down with some sickness, a flu or a stomach virus, that had me laying on the bathroom floor in pain for 2 days, and in bed for another 2 days. Loads of fun, right? =\

Uh, anyway, we hope to get Repent back up and into action. I'll be typing up Chapters 4 and 5, and you can yell at Kri and maybe he'll write Chapter 6 faster.

Sorry for the delay.

I feel like crud..and that's putting it nicely. I've just given into all the stupid pain going on inside me.

Kri was right, I was being lazy with the typing. I hope to get chapter 4 up here before the weekend, for any readers out there.

Sorry for the delay..hope to get it all up here soon.
