{To be kept for a rainy day}

I know I said I was going to do something more personal, but you did say you wanted a url drop before it was cool, so I'm gonna go with the flow and do it this way -Slips on sunglasses-

my opinion on;

character in general: Originally, Reno was always my second favorite character in the game; Sephiroth being the first. But over time, the little shit grew on me more, even more so when Advent Children came out because you got to see his softer, sillier side. how they play them: I was always picky about how people portrayed Reno. I never expected when I followed you to see him literally come to life in your portrayals. I've been rolplaying for literal decades and there are less than a handful of people who have managed to blow my mind away with bringing a fictional character to life before my eyes. You fit the bill there, darlin' . Every single thread we had, I couldn't wait to read each one of them. I looked forward to your replies and I'll always enjoy re reading all of them. the mun: Where do I even begin... Reno, You are the most wonderful person I've been fortunate enough to find. They say that people are placed in your life for various reasons. To teach you lessons, to be a certain type of friend that you've always needed, to show you something important that you might not have learned from anyone else. (guess that still falls under the lessons category ^^). You are the type of friend that every single person in the world needs to have in their life. You are the silver lining on the darkest storm cloud, the feeling of warmth you feel from the sun on a chilly day. I remember how much I always enjoyed talking to you on the phone, and that's coming from someone who greatly dislikes talking on the phone at that. I loved listening to you sing, hearing your laugh, got such a kick whenever you did your Archer impersonations. I miss those times, and how we would chat on the phone or skype while watching movies or Archer on Netflix. I just miss everything when it comes to you. Earlier tonight I re downloaded SoundCloud just so I could hear your voice again, and to this day it still gives me chills and just leaves me speechless. You are literally one of the most beautiful people I know and despite everything you have ever gone through and continue to go through still, you're still smiling. Even when you're hurting so much inside, you're not letting it get the best of you, and that makes you stronger than you realize or even care to admit. You have touched so many lives, there are just so many people who you mean the world to, and we are all lucky to have you in our lives. I have not been a good friend to you for some time now, I had no idea about everything you've been going through, everything that transpired in my absence. And I want to make that up to you now while I still can. Because I absolutely adore you more than I could ever tell you

do i;

follow them: here AND FB rp with them: Not nearly enough ^^ want to rp with them: ALL.THE.TIME ship their character with mine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ZCiHsIfrOg Once upon a time, these two were closer than two peas in a pod. Elena was falling hard for the man who always had the words to feel like she was more than the horrible image she had painted of herself. Sadly, she is convinced she destroyed all of that for good and knows a second chance is out of the question. But she'll love him endlessly and do everything within her power to keep him safe, because there isn't a single soul in the world who could ever replace him. {RecklessTactics 5ever }

what is my;

overall opinion: If it wasn't cleared in everything stated up above; simply put? I cherish you, always have and I always will.

Prelude to Chaos {Act II}

~Earlier that day~

The private line on the soon to be disposed headset to the throw away PHS was buzzing quietly in her ear. Elena had no sooner finished paying for her.....or should she say Lilith's new dress when she felt the vibrations tickling at the inner shell of her ear. With a fake cheerful smile directed at the clerk, she grabbed her bags and walked out of the store and down a secluded alley way where it was much quieter before pressing a minuscule button button by her earlobe.

"Sir."

"Ohhh Laney I loooove when you address me properly."

Plush tiers would curl in a snarl as the corner of her eyelid twitched rapidly. Before Elena had a chance to snap at her red headed comrade, Tseng used that 'no nonsense' tone of voice of his and took care of the obnoxious man for her before crisply replying.

 "Coordinates are being sent to your phone for the care package you ordered this morning. This is the only bit of help you're authorized to receive, Elena...."

The underlying concerned tones in Tsengs voice touched her and a small smile briefly flit across her features.

"It will be enough. I'll be home soon."

Rude's silky baritone added. "Watch the guard." Elena grinned. "The bigger they are, the harder they fall, right?"

Even if she was alone in this, she didn';t feel as such with her family backing her up with their positive support. 

"Don't screw up rookie. I don't feel like flying all the way out there and saving your scrawny ass."

Count on Reno to be a pain. "Bite me, Firecrotch." "Yea you'd like that too mu--"

With another push of the same little button, she disconnected the call and went back to the new motel she checked in at earlier that morning. No traces would be made back to ShinRa, she was making sure of that. Even the money she was spending just linked back to a private account in the name of some unknown souls deceased ancestor. 

Moving down the mental checklist in her troubled mind, Elena decided the first thing she would do was devise a way to remove the bodyguard from the picture. She thought about taking him out at the party, but decided that the fewer bodies that piled up would be a better approach.

So she figured if he wasn't able to make it to the party, the host would be much easier to dispose of.Remove the muscle and the prey would be child's play. Easy enough, right?

Too bad things rarely ever went that well.

Writing Advice: by Chuck Palahniuk In six seconds, you’ll hate me. But in six months, you’ll be a better writer. From this point forward—at least for the next half year—you may not use “thought” verbs. These include: Thinks, Knows, Understands, Realizes, Believes, Wants, Remembers, Imagines, Desires, and a hundred others you love to use. The list should also include: Loves and Hates. And it should include: Is and Has, but we’ll get to those later. Until some time around Christmas, you can’t write: Kenny wondered if Monica didn’t like him going out at night…” Instead, you’ll have to Un-pack that to something like: “The mornings after Kenny had stayed out, beyond the last bus, until he’d had to bum a ride or pay for a cab and got home to find Monica faking sleep, faking because she never slept that quiet, those mornings, she’d only put her own cup of coffee in the microwave. Never his.” Instead of characters knowing anything, you must now present the details that allow the reader to know them. Instead of a character wanting something, you must now describe the thing so that the reader wants it. Instead of saying: “Adam knew Gwen liked him.” You’ll have to say: “Between classes, Gwen had always leaned on his locker when he’d go to open it. She’s roll her eyes and shove off with one foot, leaving a black-heel mark on the painted metal, but she also left the smell of her perfume. The combination lock would still be warm from her butt. And the next break, Gwen would be leaned there, again.” In short, no more short-cuts. Only specific sensory detail: action, smell, taste, sound, and feeling. Typically, writers use these “thought” verbs at the beginning of a paragraph (In this form, you can call them “Thesis Statements” and I’ll rail against those, later). In a way, they state the intention of the paragraph. And what follows, illustrates them. For example: “Brenda knew she’d never make the deadline. was backed up from the bridge, past the first eight or nine exits. Her cell phone battery was dead. At home, the dogs would need to go out, or there would be a mess to clean up. Plus, she’d promised to water the plants for her neighbor…” Do you see how the opening “thesis statement” steals the thunder of what follows? Don’t do it. If nothing else, cut the opening sentence and place it after all the others. Better yet, transplant it and change it to: Brenda would never make the deadline. Thinking is abstract. Knowing and believing are intangible. Your story will always be stronger if you just show the physical actions and details of your characters and allow your reader to do the thinking and knowing. And loving and hating. Don’t tell your reader: “Lisa hated Tom.” Instead, make your case like a lawyer in court, detail by detail. Present each piece of evidence. For example: “During roll call, in the breath after the teacher said Tom’s name, in that moment before he could answer, right then, Lisa would whisper-shout ‘Butt Wipe,’ just as Tom was saying, ‘Here’.” One of the most-common mistakes that beginning writers make is leaving their characters alone. Writing, you may be alone. Reading, your audience may be alone. But your character should spend very, very little time alone. Because a solitary character starts thinking or worrying or wondering. For example: Waiting for the bus, Mark started to worry about how long the trip would take…” A better break-down might be: “The schedule said the bus would come by at noon, but Mark’s watch said it was already 11:57. You could see all the way down the road, as far as the Mall, and not see a bus. No doubt, the driver was parked at the turn-around, the far end of the line, taking a nap. The driver was kicked back, asleep, and Mark was going to be late. Or worse, the driver was drinking, and he’d pull up drunk and charge Mark seventy-five cents for death in a fiery traffic accident…” A character alone must lapse into fantasy or memory, but even then you can’t use “thought” verbs or any of their abstract relatives. Oh, and you can just forget about using the verbs forget and remember. No more transitions such as: “Wanda remembered how Nelson used to brush her hair.” Instead: “Back in their sophomore year, Nelson used to brush her hair with smooth, long strokes of his hand.” Again, Un-pack. Don’t take short-cuts. Better yet, get your character with another character, fast. Get them together and get the action started. Let their actions and words show their thoughts. You—stay out of their heads. And while you’re avoiding “thought” verbs, be very wary about using the bland verbs “is” and “have.” For example: “Ann’s eyes are blue.” “Ann has blue eyes.” Versus: “Ann coughed and waved one hand past her face, clearing the cigarette smoke from her eyes, blue eyes, before she smiled…” Instead of bland “is” and “has” statements, try burying your details of what a character has or is, in actions or gestures. At its most basic, this is showing your story instead of telling it. And forever after, once you’ve learned to Un-pack your characters, you’ll hate the lazy writer who settles for: “Jim sat beside the telephone, wondering why Amanda didn’t call.” Please. For now, hate me all you want, but don’t use thought verbs. After Christmas, go crazy, but I’d bet money you won’t. (…) For this month’s homework, pick through your writing and circle every “thought” verb. Then, find some way to eliminate it. Kill it by Un-packing it. Then, pick through some published fiction and do the same thing. Be ruthless. “Marty imagined fish, jumping in the moonlight…” “Nancy recalled the way the wine tasted…” “Larry knew he was a dead man…” Find them. After that, find a way to re-write them. Make them stronger.

I need to go back to school.
