2nd Epic Storyline

[badatheart]

Wow...this place really is something else. I've done a lot of observing since I arrived and took notes and tried not to flip my shit...this is a mangaka's dream come true.

And I haven't been cursed yet. Wonder how long my luck will last.

It's a downer that Saiko isn't here anymore, though. Will he get ahead of me at home? Will he want to move

People getting all sorts of cool stuff while dodging monsters or the super secret spies or dark and scary stuff.

[badatheart]

Cool stuff as in...weapons? Superpowers?

[sing_bluesilver]

Umm, maybe? It's all good if it's not all preaching.

[badatheart]

Yeah, I get that. The message should be subtle.

[sing_bluesilver]

I just like a story but it can't always not have some kind of point. But man, talk about dull if they're all ramming ideas down your throat.

[badatheart]

Dull, and annoying, too. I need to work on toning down my exposition.

[sing_bluesilver]

Yup!

Do you write?

[badatheart]

I do. Manga. My buddy Saiko does the drawings.

[sing_bluesilver]

Really? That must be pretty interesting!

Hi, I'm Ryuichi!

[badatheart]

It is, definitely.

Takagi Akito. Nice to meet you, Ryuichi.

[sing_bluesilver]

Nice to meet you!

I really don't kow how people can do a lot of writing like that. I have problems just finishing a song without seeing the music first.

[badatheart]

I have tons of stories in my head. It's just that some of them are total crap.

Seeing the music?

[sing_bluesilver]

That's how it goes! You just have to work at getting to the good stuff, right?

Yup! Cuz the music sometimes dictates the kind of words needed.

[badatheart]

Exactly.

...Just like the story sometimes dictates the kind of drawing-style needed. I guess that makes sense.

[sing_bluesilver]

Yup! That's how it is! It can be pretty fantastic when it works right.

[badatheart]

What kind of music do you write? Are you a rocker?
