Welcome to Gaia! ::

I dunno... Kaori Yuki writes replies to fans in her mangas sometimes, and she implies that she writes back. Although most manga-ka lead pretty busy lives.

Hm, I guess you're right, Sephi.

Ruri. XD I'd rather learn pole-dancing.

Sephi: hehehe. You can come too dear. ;D

Also, I have to say that I haven't really understood much about what you and Cala have been babbling on about (it made me quite angry, actually >_<), but, that just because you are living in the land of Manga-ka and anime geniuses, does not mean it is going to be easier to figure out what you need to do. Perhaps finding a class isn't going to work, or writing to a manga-ka (they are terribly busy), but maybe you are looking in the wrong places? Hmm, that sounds strange... I'm not sure how to say what I want to say XP

Anyways. Doing what you're doing now, our requests, for practice is good. Especially when you went reference hunting for mine, and had to get all those little details from Cala. Things like, how to draw manga books, while sorta lame seeming, can occasionally be helpful with certain tips, or with some of the poses they show. I photocopied pages from a book my friend had gotten from the school library, and I've been using the outlines of one pose for a character sketch. I'm not ever going to get it finished, but it's been a big help.

I have a friend whose been doing the same as you, working on things so she can one day get published, and she's been looking into all kinds of things, and even entered a contest a while back to get a manga published. Any sort of thing like that, y'know? Actually, I showed her the vampire, and she said that his torso was a bit short, so the arms look a little out of whack. If he was real, his wrists would be at his knees. So maybe if you do go back and play with him, make his legs shorter. I'm telling you this to be helpful, not cause she was being mean, she wasn't. It's a helpful critique, okay? She has a better eye for these things than I do. Keep trying, and we know you'll do it. You have all of us supporting you, no?

Okay... Cala: Do strippers not use poles too? ._.; This should be an all-in-one class. We should talk to them about that.

Psy: Silly duck. I was referring to a conversation Cala and I'd been having on YIM earlier in the day x3 We're going to catch pyschos in the psychomobile, using the psychofinder (I keep spelling psycho wrong, typing all this...). We get on these things from the weirdest starting points. O_o I want them cause it would be fun to do, and probably a laugh riot XD (but not for real. Just in my head with the bunch of us).

Uhm, dearest, you are in the OCC Forum. It's not necessary to tell us you're out of character? You're right to look confused though. :3

Hiya!

Ruri, sorry we've been confusing you. Poledancing and stripping are two different things, but they can be combined. I've actually read about people who are over the age of 90 poledancing because it's a really good way of keeping fit, and it's really fun, too. But the nearest place that does it is Brighton, so... no chance. XD

Psy, you can come too!

Hi, Crimson! I need to nickname you.

Cala: Crim. That should be the nickname. or...Kane? nooo.. I like "Crim"
Thanks for the invite! *gets on her sluttiest outfit which in fact isn't so slutty* This should soothe my inner slut. xd just kidding.

Rosie: Ah, so no real stripping? *smirks* thought not...as, hello, we don't know each other in rl. blaugh

Crim: nice entrance...reminds me of my own but more graceful. 3nodding

Sephi: Surprised? O.O Oh dear. Surprised how? Good or bad? *curiosity is getting to her..*

talk2hand : Curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back.

Yay! Now I need to find me a good outfit for it. Hard to do considering where I am actually but theyre expensive. Sexy clothes are considered a bit clandestine for the boys, but for women they are more then fine so there's stuff galore for girls. Go Japanese sexism.

As for your pict Psych, its a good kind of thing I think anyway, I have a whole bunch of ideas and I'll doing sketching to see what pose and such is best. If you're really concerned I can send a sketch. But my sketches are a loooong way off the mark of a finished thing...

For the record my birthday is in two months wink

Sephi: lol, I'm sure we could find you something. ;D Is it now? I shall have to remember that heart

Psy: No, hooker, not stripper xD I don't have plastic, see-through heels. xDDD They would, yup. I nearly wore them with fishnets once, but it didn't work so well and I looked whore-ish XP

DDDDD: I forgot to time jump things! IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE LONGER!!! Argh, I suck so much. >_<;

Time... skip...? *blink blink*

...am I in another dimension?

And Crim you shall be, Crimson Akane Ryuu!

...the pretty purple princess just pilfered pretty precious pink Pharaoh Pamela's pretty pink pumpkin! crying And then the great green giant grated pretty precious pink Pharaoh Pamela's pretty pink pumpkin into pretty pink mush!
