Their eyes... they scare me. 0_o

And yay for (almost) finishing rs_games!! \o/ Sorry I couldn't be very helpful, I'm really bad at ideas. (But me being silent means that I'm thinking VERY hard, not that I'm ignoring you... Something I've finally realised I have to explain to people. It took a while and a few missuderstandings.)

It's like me having to explain my accent parroting.

Exactly.(And when I realised I forgot to mention that, I felt really stupid because it must seem like I don't give a damn >.< I can assure you, that is not the case)

That book is truly bizarre, but I can totally see how compelling it would be as a kid. Though I have no drawing talent, I love art and, as a child I particularly remember being drawn into the style of book illustrations. Those colors are so bold and those odd creatures so... odd.

Yes! That's so how I was. My earliest memories are so comfortingly visual, in the way I reckon people who can smell recall smells. I remember the dress that changes colours at the end of Sleeping Beauty really well, and my mom reckon I couldn't've been more than a year old...And of course the colours I remember are so much brighter, vivid and pretty than they are upon seeing it again nowadays.

It's cool remembering things from before I could talk.
