Haha, I'm such a dorker with making these trailer things, but I simply can't resist. On day... I hope... to do this sort of thing as a professional... -squeeeeee- I'll have to get 56859464049303 times better, but I want to! I want to learn everything I can about this stuff and do it forever. Seriously. -dreaming-

But I hope so!

Whatever am I going to do with iced tea? -wrinkly face- Hmmm anything but drink it, I think. La la. Jin is the best, yup yup.

Sandal. Fuu's. Animal. HAHA. Episode 15 is a great Mugen one too... and you can't forget eps 13 and 14. (I have that music, btw, if you want it.) I mean I guess when I think about it, Jin's my automatic favorite, but Mugen's just a tad bit more interesting to me because I don't understand him as well. There's something so raw and wild and mysterious about him that is sooo interesting, and I really do like him. And it would be a lot easier to spend the day with him because I wouldn't have to be so nice. I'm not naturally a very nice person. :D Anyway those are my ANNOYING THOUGHTS. But I like him a lot.

!!! Even I haven't seen this wonderous binder yet. Heh, we need to crack down on that soon. We've been sort of, uh, on a break. Haha. I'm terrible at that whole thing, btw, I'm a complete scatterbrain. I forget everything. You can't depend on me for anything, so I'm really greatful Rocky is so much more organized and thoughtful and BETTER AT IT in general... -hums- the most I have are random sentences here and there in my dedicated notebook... shame shame shame. Of course I print out everything she writes, when my printer is not dead. Jayden is a sweetheart! All her characters are so much nicer than mine. ^_~ Sometimes I wonder... if there isn't something wrong with me...

I was figuring out some stuff last night and having way too much fun with it. I don't think it's a professional option for me, but it's sure as hell a lot of fun. The subtitles on the bottom are really starting to annoy me though. How did you get rid of them?

Well, 'torn shirts' didn't have really all that much to do with torn shirts in general, just uses the prompt somehow. I don't know. Jin trying to drown Mugen in tea?

Hit me with the music! I can't wait to get to Rocky's so I can score the Kenshin music. I love Jin, I love all of them, but Mugen more, just because he amuses me and he's easier to relate to right now. Having a lot of problems at home so . . . dunno. He's not that mysterious though. All he does is refuse to think about things in the past, keeps it to himself and forgets about it. I'm not a nice person half the time either, I snap, I swear, I hit and I yell. Oh yeah. But I don't think I'd be too obligated to have manners around the others either.

Well, it is a beautiful binder and I had a very good time reading it. I know about the whole break thing because Rocky was trying to write while we were in Maine. She's so damn organized ( I'm a scatterbrain too )! I, however, tend to remember a lot, so maybe I'm not that big of a scatterbrain when it comes to the writing. Just real life -- actually, just my meds. I write random too, I have some many private post kicking around with the most fucked ideas.

You need nice characters and you need nasty characters. Personally, I love writing nasty ones. It's so damn easy when they need to be mean -- especially when I'm so damn sick of writing about the nice. HA HA! There is nothing wrong with you.

I... don't think it's a professional option for me either but I don't care because I'm gonna chase it anyway. Stupid, huh? You can't get rid of the subtitles once its an avi like I'm asuming you have... all the vids I make I rip from my dvds and so for some reason they just don't show up anyway (I think this is because the default setting for an anime dvd is English). If you don't like subtitles you should download the dubs instead.

I'll do a major anime music post later! Anime music is ALL I'M LISTENING TO right now so I have tons of it. For Samurai Champloo I know I have at least 30 tracks. There's this great Elfen Lied track too, it is soooo sad and so beautiful, I will upload it for you! (I'm not giving up about this anime.)

I relate to Jin incredibly well... the selfishness and the searching and the monk-ness and the easily-embarrassed and the everything. So Mugen is a nice break because he's totally different. I loved him as soon as he said 'I'm ready to die everytime I wake up in the morning' or something like that. That really said a lot. Then in episode 14 he tells the gods 'Wait, I'm not ready yet!' and I was intrigued. THIS GUY WAS HUMAN. I think the past actually does haunts him... but then I'm sort of comparing him to Spike in the back of my head all the time. Maybe it's the hair? Plus both Mugen and Spike tend to avoid whatever it is that's really bugging them. Jin seems more the one to just forget and move ahead. And I say this with his 'tell them you killed me, if you like' to back me up. His sort of 'I honestly don't care' compared to Mugen's 'I don't give a shit! But sometimes I do...'. Like... we all know Mugen's rather fond of Fuu. He'll never let her know that. ^_~ And we're back to 'I'm ready to die! Except when I'm actually dying...', too. You see? Mugen says things without thinking, that's all it is. You open your mouth to say something and he spits out 'didn't do it!' He does care. That's what makes him so strangely adorable. But his motives in some cases, though they make sense, really confuse the hell out of me. I just don't understand them, I guess. Though I do... it's hard to explain. Hmm.

She says she isn't organized, and so I wonder what exactly is organized to her and decide never ever to let her see my room, she might actually die in the doorway. As for private posts, sometimes I randomly create a blog on some other site and spend a few days typing drunk and swearing left and right in the form of haikus. Maybe it will be some type of therapy in the future. Then I leave these accounts without deleting them. Haha.

Characters I make are just fucking weird. I mean I can't make anything clear and simple, ever. I have to distort it and metaphor-it and all that crap. I can't help it! I wish I didn't. But I guess I realize I'm not good enough of a writer to keep anyone interested with normal people so the intrigue ( I guess? ) has to come from some place else, if there is any intrigue at all. And I so cannot do nice. For some reason. It's really awesome that I get to be around people like Shira and Jayden because I never could have created them. Rocky and I are so different. It makes me excited.

Ain't screwing around with stiff the greatest?! My computer doesn't let me download anime, most of the time, because of the torrents, so I'll just live with it.

I'm working on a music post as we speak, though it's got really no anime music in, but I do that song "Butterfly" song we all seem to enjoy so much. XP

Jin reminds me of adobe_wedge's friend Nate. A lot. Only, maybe, more social ( if you can think that ). It's the stoic-ness, but you get the idea that he's a good guy, maybe even nice if you can get him to open up a bit. He's also too quiet, it drives me crazy. But, he's Jin -- very dependable, slightly emotionless, aside from that magnificent eye-twitch. But he interests me.

I think it's easier to relate to Mugen because I've been there . . . that whole dying situation. You think that you may be able to square away with dying, and some days it can feel like you have, but then you get there and it's like, "I DON'T WANT TO, GOD DAMN IT, I'M NOT DONE", but at the same time, it's a very helpless sensation. There is nothing that you can do. I try to forget stuff like that, but, it sneaks up on me and I crack and have to go . . . do something about it. So, most of the time, it's just easier to press on and forget, or, at least, ignore as long as you can. There's the difference, I think: Jin can let go, but Mugen, as much as he wants to can't.

Haha, I do that all the time. "Didn't do it!" and "WHAT?!" are probably two of my most overused phrases. Reflex. And, well, you're right. But I would like to point out that the three are all dynamic within the series, each changing in their own way. Which is why I'm so frustrated that the series ended as it did. DEPRESSING. But it practically throws open the doors for so much fan fiction.

Rocky is so damn organized, I get embarrassed when she sees the state of my room. Or even my sling bag. *sigh* Trust me, messy rooms don't disturb me. They don't even faze me. I might even congratulate you on your mess.

My characters, half the time, are so off their collective nuts that I have to write and rewrite so it looks like they aren't schizo or . . . something. Drake's my favorite, because he basically does everything that the narrator simply refuses to. He rocks. He wants something, what's tying her up so he can take her shopping going to matter? It's his idea of flirting. I can do nice though. I think some of the writing skills come from being an excellent liar -- which I'm proud of and not proud of at the same time.

Rocky makes nice work in so many ways. I don't think she could pen evil if you weren't there egging her on. Either that or we locked her in a cave with a corpse or something for a week. You know. EVILLY THINGS.
