Jacques!!!! Not

What will make you love me, Izz? Who needs Russians!

Can Jack Do It?

I know I can't

Strike one!

Oooh strike 1 for Jack!

Actually, double strike!

First, Izz runs off on him and then Toby:

1) Tells him about Izz and Vlad being in a 'romantic relationship'

2) Asks Jack if he wants to be more than friends with Izz

3) Says he knows Jack already feels that way.

Wow. Talk about a night of thought.

Second strike! Vlad told Izz he loved her. Ooooh. Hard to beat that one when you haven't even come to terms with it, isn't it Jack? Not sure you can beat out Vlad right now.

*pats Jack* get back up, you optimist!

Jack and Vlad

This tragic duo are part of a very tight love triangle that is already building. Here comes the endless fight over the girl, in this case, Izz.

Here we have Vladimir Nikolai Lasarskav facing off with Jack Bastion Callaghan. A cool, calculating Russian versus a blatant and loud American.

Vlad, when you go after an American girl, you've got to learn to lighten up and fit into the atmosphere, or she may just run off on you.

Let's do some character bios. FACEOFF!

Name: Jack Bastion Callaghan

Birthday: March 22, 1987

Hair: Black with blue tips currently (naturally brown)

Eyes: Brown

Favorite food: Pineapple/Steak/Ribs

Height: 5'11''

Major: Public Administration

The product of a teen pregnancy, Jack has always been getting into trouble while learning to be loud and brash. He never knew his biological father, but he never really cared to nor let that bother him. His mother was lucky enough to have someone step in as his surrogate and eventually step-father when she was around 18. Jack wasn't raised in a great part of town, but thanks to having two parents he was able to attend reasonable middle and high schools and eventually worked his way to going to a New York university. Throughout high school he was the lead guitarist in the band "Smokescreen". His personality is sometimes a little bit too optimistic, and he turns every situation into an awkward or sometimes funny joke. He gets along with almost everyone, although a lot of people find him annoying or a bit too open. Jack has no fashion sense or knowledge of cheese (and many other things), but he has always been open to trying new things. He also has developed no sense of self-preservation, as he will walk straight into danger without even realizing it. He believes everyone should love him at first impression just because he is friendly or loud to them. Even though he is slow to catch up on some things, he's quick to catch onto little things people don't usually notice (most of the times instinctively or by accident). He consistently wears bright, non-matching colors, plaid, pink, and dyes his hair a number of different ways. He's just mismatched in general. He even named his guitar Agatha! I mean come on. Ever since he was a child he has enjoyed his name thoroughly, memorizing how his name has popped up in society in mainstream media, pop culture, old books, nursery rhymes, fairy tales, animals, expressions, cultures, and more. He also loves to nickname and be nicknamed. He's probably had about 20 girlfriends. He had also become fairly obsessed with working a variety of jobs. He has worked at a butchery, toy shop, restaurant (for a little bit), deli, grocery store, men's clothing department store, office supply store, local theme park, antique store, cosmetics store, fowlery, orchard, and now a flower shop amongst others.

Name: Vladimir Nikolai Lasarskav

Birthday: January 12, 1987

Hair: Blond

Eyes: Blue

Favorite Food: TBD

Height: 6'0''

Major: Civil Engineering

Vlad was born in the dead of winter in Mazyr, Belarus. He has a father in the Russian military and a mother who preferred the smaller backwoods life to the more rigid one they were living then. Vlad rarely saw his father once he was getting older because of his military background, which made him fairly quiet and shy. He has been taught strictly in some of the top schools of his country and has traveled a lot due to his father's position. He had to help his mother through hard times because of the societal turbulence going on within the Country as he grew up. His mother was always pushing him to get his degree in an American University, and he finally got in contact with an exchange program. It had always been hard for his mother to push him out of his shell even though he has several friends in Russia. He has dated 2 girls before. He had held several jobs in Russia and even tried participating in some military training by his father's will, but did not enjoy it. He enjoys hunting, swimming, running, theorizing, analyzing, and learning new things. He usually enjoys exploring a new city and its history once he comes to it and is accustomed to traveling. Although he loves to travel and explore, he secretly wants to be able to settle down in one place once his life calms down. He does have a sense of humor, but it is not loud and brash, instead it is more calculated or sarcastic. He usually has to get to know someone well to trust them enough to open up. He ends up caring a lot about someone he bonds with, though, and will be extremely loyal.

RP Relationships

So people it has been a while since we've discussed the rp peeps!

Here we see a girl in the middle of a possible love dilemma triangle brewing! A bit about each of the characters before we get into this.

Izabella Kitty Markson

Age: 19

Hair: dyed purple

Major: Biology

For now all I'll say about Izz is that she comes from a family of three children. She's the middle child and has an older brother (Tatts/Edward) who I will be re-introducing in a minute and a younger half sister named Vallery. Neither her nor her brother get along with their half sister since she is a one of those fake, bratty younger siblings who had a lot of influence from their mother. When she was young her parents divorced, resulting in a tear in her family. Her brother went on to participate in mild gang activities and took the ordeal harshly. However, when their mother married Vincent (Vinny), their life seemed to turn around for a little bit since he was a cool guy. Unfortunately, Vallery was born.

Monster Princess Dream

I'll tell this dream from what I can remember of it, which is only tidbits. It was pretty messed up.

I was in my room here, which in my mind only registers my old bunk bed and not my new bed. So, I was here in my room having a sleepover with my friends. They took the bottom bunk and I took the top bunk. I'm pretty sure Banak, Sam, and I were the only participants in this sleepover.

Halfway through the sleepover (my mom has some of our Persian family over for entertainment, which makes me feel warm inside for some reason), we're watching TV on my small TV in the corner of the room (where my computer and desk are now). I'm leaning over the top bunk to watch as we all become engrossed in the show. Suddenly, this creature sort of...FLOATS into my room. I cannot even begin to describe how freaky this creature is.

It's like Venom in the mouth, except it has a large amount of jagged, jutting teeth sticking outwards, which makes it look like it can never eat anything without stabbing it relentlessly. Its body is a convoluted set of limbs and a hunched over spine. Its skin is smooth and too white to look anything but sick, yet it has some strange hair follicles on its head sparsely set. It has a rhaspy woman's voice and a long bulbous tongue. The entire face reminds me of something like a clown from a circus. It has deep red circles under its eyes and pinkish flesh on the face and some of the body. It is also dressed in shabby clothing that has been put together in a way that you knew it was part of a very elaborate and beautiful outfit before. I can scarcely remember the creature save its face.

The creature speaks to me and I am only slightly frightened, as it seems to impossible to exist. Nobody else takes notice of the creature as it floats/stands up to my level, shoving its face to mine in a strange kiss that feels like a human kiss. I know the creature is 'female' from what she has told me and she is very powerful. I begin to gasp and shiver and generally freak out that this strange, jagged sharp toothed face is in mine in this way. She then turns her cheek as if she is supposed to be kissed in the traditional persian fashion. I hesitantly reach out to kiss her cheek in hopes that she will leave me alone. I am also astonished that my friends take no notice of what is happening to me, they just keep on giggling and watching the TV.

I pulled away and the strange animal like monster face is still turned expectantly. She expects me to kiss her cheek more, so I do, and then she turns the other cheek. I repeat what I did and turn back to the TV, hoping it'll go away. I look back and she's still standing expectantly, so I hesitantly go to kiss her cheek, since it's not that bad. Unfortunately she then begins to kiss my neck, mimicking a strange animal/human feeling that would be impossible for her true face to accomplish.

This was the weirdest thing for me. It felt so real that I have never felt anything like that in my life. My neck is HORRIBLY sensitive and this was far too much for my body to handle as the creature wouldn't stop causing my flesh some kind of strange pleasure and I didn't like it. I couldn't help but make a lot of noise as she continued and refused to stop, but nobody heard me. She then began to move the grotesque face down my body slightly and I felt awful, not wanting this. My mom walks in halfway through as I embarrassedly try to get her to stop between gasps and my mom says "Pronk I---" and sees what is happening. She hides her face in shame so she will not see and mutters "oh no, the Princess, what is she doing..?" as if she has seen a family omen and is concerned about this creature's behavior more than what is happening to me. My mother rushes off in 'secrecy' to tell the family members.

The creature pauses and tells me it'll be back every night at this time to talk to me. I'm freaking out and I don't want this. More later.

My Dream

Tim Burton styled.

I saw 9.

Trying to type out dreams here again to see if it helps.

I don't remember a lot of the details, but generally my computer becomes a "zombie" in the technical sense. I know this because there are a community of people actually VISIBLY walking on my screen that are telling me all they know about my life. They claim that this is because they caught my computer on their scanning screen when I left it on all night (later when I wake up I'm glad to see I actually shut down my computer). From there they can turn my computer on or off when they please and observe me through the computer's camera.

Of course I'm utterly freaked out. Why? Because I have no life and need my computer. Not to mention being watched by a community of people at random is not fun. My computer is warped and has a complete virus shut down.

Then...I go to see a movie with my friends. It's a new Burton out that revolves around a community made of vegetables. It's one of those "light hearted" macabre movies aimed at tweens. It starts with an underground society of "saplings"--the dead human infants that they plant in the ground in the Dark Ages--who are grown underground. Apparently children are being weeded out (no pun intended) of their homes and end up getting killed in the constant slaughters and wars, not to mention the plagues, going on in this land. Well the entire movie is focused on how these corpses find new life underground by fertilizing the land with their bodies and in turn being fertilized with magic themselves. They are given a sort of new life of irony--they represent vegetables and other edible goods that could easily replenish a new population that is plagued by famine and disease.

The movie begins by revolving around the Carrot girl--a young 11 year old redhead with long shiny locks and ragged, scraggly green country clothing who finds herself in this underground city with no memory. She's generally happy but she doesn't realize that carrots have their own dark past besides being loved by society as a generally common vegetable.

Partway through the movie I go into ethereal view or in and out of Carrot's view. She has no idea what's going on and she goes to talk to a few of the strange adults walking these dark alleyways, but to no avail. Finally she sees a girl about her age who seems rather down and doesn't want to talk. She is darker and seems like she hasn't slept and has soot all over her. She's very light skinned but has a dark demeanor and has very large, poofy white hair that looks grey. Carrot girl tries to talk to her but the other girl generally looks grim and walks away.

On the other hand, a younger darker skinned boy who looks sort of Indian and a lighter skinned boy who wears green both get along quite well with her. I'm guessing they were yams and peas. They are inviting their parent vegetables to a festival to see how well they can bake their general tastes, or how well they can use their regenerating limbs and such to appeal to their "human" parents. Carrot girl finds that Yams and Peas usually do quite well every year and are a very happy pair. They warn her not to get too close with Garlic, who is the gloomy girl, because she's mean and rarely talks to anyone. She also has a wretched home.

Another gloomy girl, the Chives girl, had hair in large ponytails that really represented stringy chives in a way and she seemed to hang out near Garlic's dark garden area. Garlic had skulls scattered around her garden walkway and there was a "stench" like yellow fog that constantly clung to everything. Carrot doesn't seem phased as she walks through and comes across a swampy, disgusting fountain that has smoke skulls emanating from within the bubbling dark waters. Carrot finds this very fun and goes swimming and bounding through the marsh as if it is bath water, causing the combination of carrot and garlic to make green heart smoke instead of skulls. This was supposed to be based on a) the fact that their personalities were really closer in the first life than it seemed, and b) apparently carrots and garlic come from a similar family tree and made an unexpectedly nice combination?

So Carrot learns from others that Garlic and Onion and these other vegetables/spices are some of the oldest known in this strange half life land and for some reason none of them ever won contests or were approved in taste by the "adults" or "humans". Carrot cannot seem to smell/taste anything wrong with them and in fact likes their world but enjoys the personalities of yams/peas more. She tries to lure them out of their shells and find more applications for their powers, which are dark, such as their medicinal value. Carrot may be bland but she's innocent and treading into dark water I guess.

Also Carrot learns more of her past and the reason she could get along with spicy, bitter or sour lands better than sweet. It's because she belongs to both, being a small tough and bitter root but transforming later through the ages into a sweet and pigmented root that is edible.

Although Garlic was known as food, flavoring and medicine, she was shunned for her taste now (which I don't get) and was despised for her strong "deathly" odor which wasn't valued in the upper classes (which is true in some history).

So basically that part of my dream begins fading away into a horrible calamity that occurs that I become a part of. I have to run away and take some minority Indian and Spanish women with me because a bunch of crazy men begin trying to kill us. We're in a very horrible and large part of an abandoned town and one pregnant indigenous woman becomes stuck in the broken escalator that goes on for miles into the sky and they're coming.

Then I woke up.

Maybe I should make that stupid movie?

Are you spent?

DAMN MY LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!

What the heck is going on with my life that for some reason I am told that I am SAYING THINGS THAT REMIND PEOPLE OF A VULGAR CONTEXT!?!@?!?!?!?!

Can I ever get any more annoying apparently? I guess I cannot even say the words "spent" anymore without being a complete moron!

what else I want!?!?!>!?!
