I LOVE (MY) ASSASSINS

My assassins are like my childrens, I love them all equally. My assassins story is only rivaled with my Cult story, and the two are sorta intertwined. Then again I can just say I love my Underground Stories and that covers both of them. And when I say "cult" I don't mean a bunch of weird teenagers sacrificing hamsters and lighting incense in their closet. I'm talking about an Order of warlocks that are part of the Underground system. Since I never like show my stories to anybody I have to tell you guys about this, but I won't elaborate because it's way complicated.

So I was listening to the song "The Prayer by Bloc Party" which is totally not all religious and is epic and made me think of my assassins story and inspired a new part of a scene.

It's funny because Swing Kids reminded me a lot of my story. It's sort of strange too, because a lot of that stuff actually (in a way) happened so my Assassins Underground relates to Nazi Germany? >_>

Anyway, I'm pumped with muse to write, but I'm in the middle of writing the definition of "fluorescence" for my freaking (inane) science project, which I totally procrastinated. So I'm stopping myself because I'd probably go on a writing rampage and not ever stop. Seriously, I'd be like writing until the ending of time, or until the good music to write with stopped, which ever comes first.

of all of my dear Assassin characters it's questionable if two of them ever even killed anybody, which I find humorous. but they do other services to the assassins. but still, the Assassins are more of a loose term. well Methusalah's Assassins to be more exact. To those more educated in the way of Christianity, Methusalah is a name from the Bible, but I found it in redwall, but chose it over Asmodeus, a name for the devil. I find that humorous too. good ol' St. Methusalah (or whatever he is) or Asmodeus to be the beyond ebil assassin leader, hmmm, the Saint! But he has "Meth" in his name, which is cool (in the evil sort of way)

I totally need to make a sketch of a hit team of assassins coming out of The Underground. T'would be epic.

I want a movie to be made out of my story without me actually having to write the whole story or make the movie. Like it to be all professional then I can just go and see it and it would be like my favorite movie and I'd finally know what happens at the end. It's hard to make people cry without the appropriate music or dark theater or sad visuals. That's usually my goal at the end of stories, make them cry up their guts or at least some tears. Movies do that much better. So far I've made myself happy, but nobody who's read it seemed more sad than just going "D-::: ouch. nice ending, GOD!"

the end

Soooo... bout this one story....

I am at loss of ideas for this part of this one story. The story's (rough draft) name is Eshebasi Calling of something along those lines. (this is another thing that I made up last year, like literally a year minus a week ago, that I'm restarting and reobsessing over. This is actually like my only tie to sanity cuz i'm so busy. I haven't written much of it at all but in classes when i can zone out i've plotted some of the plot.)

I'll put it reeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllyyyyyyyyy simply and roughly this way (if you die laughing at me I will beg you to forgive me) So there's the main character, Rena or somebody who grows up in thredan w/mother. Mother is part of the (under concern of sounding cliche and weird) elite/royal gaurd (called the Mercy, but that's a whole nother story) of the Royal family and specifically the heir of the city across the ocean, Eshebasi.

The mother is only on temporary leave (I don't know why) from her job and will return to Eshebasi w/her daughter when her daughter is like 17 or something.

Getting to the point of this post, the tradition of Eshebasi(ans?) is at a certain age just below coming of age, maybge around 17 (hint hint) a child escapes from the jurisdiction of the parents for one month. This is made to broaden your experiences, opportunities and meet new people your age. Eshebasi has few written down rules and mostly relies on the queen/empress/silverlady's word to who has to be thrown in jail. So there are little restrictions from the law unless you happen to fancy committing treason or starting a riot (to phisoa: it might not be a good idea to petition the royal house either. that's probably treason). After this month is up you will be expected to work for the Mercy, so don't blow your job either.

So the question here is, if you had a month to do what ever (and everything) the heck you wanted, what all would you do? (there is some, but minimal magic most revolving around Eshebasi, you have basically unlimited money, but for food, shelter etc. not for like buying your own castle. this is medieval setting. Go crazy.)

Stuff...

So... I'm going to scrape up some things to post about. Pardon me if my capitalizing of letters is lax, but i'm on the laptop and the shift key is really a lot shorter than the key on my actual computer keyboard so instead of shift i keep on hitting the up button and it screws everything up.

So i read like a billion extremely awesome books last year for the first time and now i'm rereading them and enjoying them all over again. So I picked up Hawksong at the library. I got obsessed with it last time i read it and now i'm obsessed with it again!! Even more, I went to the author's site again and i found out that she had another book in the series come out, this september! (it's not at the library yet ;_;) But the last book that i've read from the series was more than a little bit of a disappointment at the end... and more than sufficiently awkward... I can only hope this new book is less so.

So I started hawksong like the day before yesterday (reading it only before i go to bed, and i'm trying to draw it out) and i'm so close to the end i'll probably finish it tonight. Then i'm most likely gonna end rereading the whole series (minus the second book, the second book was subpar).

I'm also reobsessed with one of the stories that i started writing last winterbreak. It's called Prisoner Exchange (<3) style="font-style: italic;">Favorite band: Pink Floyd probably overall but right now i'm most obsessed with Black Rebel Motorcycle Club (don't worry, i laughed at the name too, but it's really just good alternative with a tiny bit of emo. not like whatever the name implies) and Radiohead (psychotic alternative).

Favorite Song: As of right now, The View, Weapon of Choice, Bury Me With It or Shine. But overall maybe Dogs, Wish You Were Here, Beautiful World.

Favorite Class: Non-existent art. But otherwise... umm probably Social Studies. Yes, definitely SS.

Anyway, it's late and i'm going to bed.
