This began as a songstory but evolved into a whole mini-chapter, so there you have it. Enjoy.

This was beautiful, June, and at the same time so heartbreaking. I hope this isn't foreshadowing, though! I love Inigo & Vanessa together! <3

Thanks, Kelsey! It took a lot of work to straighten it all out, but I love how it came out. :)
Inigo's very afraid right now. Imago got fed up with him and he's terrified the same thing will happen with Vanessa. There will be more of that in the next chapter. YAY DOUBT (not really)

That was very lovely, June. I liked it a lot. :]
I agree, I don't want anything to happen to Inigo and Vanessa, though I am still mad that it's all Vanessa's fault that Imago died. Yes, that is how I see it. xD
I <3 Imago!

Thanks, Jenny! I'm glad I expanded on it and made it more than just a songstory.
It's Vanessa's fault that Imago is childish and clingy? xD Love Imago all you like, and I do too, but you have to recognize she's got some major flaws and failings.

Vanessa wasn't the one who set Imago's house on fire, it was Imago. It's her own fault she died. :P

Oh, hey June! It's only been like, 6 months since we've talked!

I really should work on this whole falling-off-the-face-of-boolprop thing.
Anyways, I finally got caught up with all your chapters, and quite frankly, they're fantastic. SO MUCH PLOTTINESS!

I love the songstories too.
Ghost of you brought me seriously so close to tears, I had to make fun of myself for getting so emotional over Sims.

How the hell are you?

Oh my God, I was wondering where you'd gotten to!
Thank you for the compliments! Haha, the plottiness is such fun to do. I love songstories; I get to share awesome songs and I get to practice my picture-taking. It's win-win, really. I'm really thrilled to hear my stories and pictures and all can move people and make them feel real emotion. :)
I'm fine, really. You know, junior year of high school and all that, but it's been fun times so far. It's crazy how fast time goes, though. xD

Seriously, they're all so good!
You did a good job of timing the pictures with the lyrics, so if you read the lyrics as Gerard sang them, the story played out really well.
You've probably said this somewhere before, but what's your favorite MCR song?
My band did a cover of Dead!, and I finally got really interested in MCR. Before I'd only really heard their singles.

I know, time does go by ridiculously fast. It's weird to think that I've known people on boolprop longer than most people IRL.
I'm getting ready to graduate in like 1.5 months, and I'm super nervous.

Also, is everything still Harry Potter themed? I noticed with the "J" kids you didn't really do a background on their namesakes, haha.
I'm super excited to see what plots unfold. :D

I'm actually starting a new legacy (No need to groan, haha).
My updates will be slow, as always, but hopefully this one will be much longer lived, haha.

:3 Thanks so much. Timing is really everything with songstories; sometimes you have to fill in the gaps in the music and you have to pace yourself. But I do love how they turn out in the end.
Ooh, I'm terrible at picking favorites of anything, but ATM I love MCR's newest single, "Na Na Na." But I also love "Cemetery Drive" and "To The End." Dead! always gets me hyped, it's kinda weird. xD
Ooh, congratulations on being so close to graduating! It must be so overwhelming and all.
Yep, we're still Harry Potter themed; Generation J just has some obscure namesakes. Joscelind and Jocunda are named for random history-making witches. One of them is named for a witch who was first to fly across the Atlantic and the other for a prominent female Quidditch player. Jack's named for a minor character from HPB who was a Gryffindor Beater, although in my mind his namesake is Jack Bauer from 24 and that's where a lot of his characterization comes from. Yay plots!
Good luck on a new Legacy! Haha, you seem to have terrible luck with them, don't you? Dx

Wow.

The song choice went wonderfully with the images towards the end. It has just the right surreal feeling mixing with a tinge of sadness. :(

And to edge away from pseudo-profoundness, this might just be coming from me being unobservant, but the new skin defaults look great! :D

I heard the song and I just loved the moniker "nightmare girl." As I thought about it more, everything started to fit perfectly. A lot of the songs from that album have that odd surrealism and real emotions, it's really quite remarkable. (The album's called "Lost in Space" and "Nightmare Girl" is a b-side, but the rest of the album is awesome.)
You haven't been unobservant; the new defaults went in after 44 was published, so technically this is the first update with them present. I love them too! :)
