I actually cut my hair today~! Only about three inches so it's not that much, considering my hair used to be past my waist, but still. I'm surprised that I acually did it myself.
I don't really know why, either. I've always loved my hair long, and it's taken me... six years to grow it out like it is now. People have bugged me to get it cut previously, but I never wanted to. Then today I just got an urge to cut it so, yeah. I want to take some more off; about another three or four inches so it'll be around my mid-back, but I'm waiting to ensure that this isn't a spontaneous thing that I'll end up regretting within a couple days.
And now for a couple responses to
this meme.
Gaignun/Hanyuu (Xenosaga/Higurashi no Naku Koro ni)
At first, it was easily attributed to fatigue. When the hour is late and one is left alone with their resless wanderings, it isn't difficult to fall victim to the tricks played by ones own eyes and ears. Every sound seems amplified. Each echo sounds longer. And one cannot help but feel they are not alone, even when the halls are empty.
If only it were still that easy.
Now, it was still early afternoon. Now, a group of 100-Series chattered excitedly in hushed voices ahead of him. And now, the phantom footsteps continued to echo behind his own.
Tira/Tokunaga (Soul Calibur/Tales of the Abyss)
"Aww, does the little girl want her dolly back?"
Anise glared, her face flushed with anger as she tried in vain to grab Tokunaga, who was being dangled above her head. The other girl was only a few inches taller than her, but the fact that Tira kept a hand against her throat ensured she didn't try too hard-- else she risked choking herself.
"Don't worry," Tira cooed in a faux comforting tone as her fingers tightened around the younger girls neck-- just enough so she'd stop her futile struggling. "I'll give it back. I just want to play with it first..."
Somehow, Anise was quite certain she didn't like the sounds of that. The hand at her throat moved but before she could say anything, she recieved a rough shove that sent her stumbling and flailing as she fought to stay on her feet. "You-- you old hag!" Nevermind Tira couldn't have been more than a few years older. "Give him--" A ripping sound cut through the sentence, and Anise could only stare in shock as Tokunaga, sans an arm, was dropped to the ground in front of her. "T... Tokunaga..?"
"Hmm, yes, that is the trouble with toys these days, isn't it?" Upon seeing the girls blank look (how cute, the poor thing was in shock), Tira grinned and wiggled the severed plushie arm. "They break far too easily."
Considering Tokunaga can go through numerous battles without any apparent damage, I'm sure it wouldn't rip easily, but cut me some slack. XD;
