    Um.

    Thanks!

    Um.

    I'm back? Lots of happenings. More later.
  3. Myiege covered all my favorites (Greyscale, The Less than Epic Adventures, The Young Protectors, Artifice, Starfighter), but I found one called Buying Time http://buyingtime.the-comic.org/comics/first/ that's really good. It calls itself a cyperpunk romance. It's really good.
  4. Their new series is called "Whatever This Is" and features all the same people. Episode 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyMCUwhm-6E
  5. Best new band? Most popular, sure, but best? I don't think so.
  6. I was going to post the same thing, in case it hadn't. Part One is also very good. The full story is that the writer wrote part one and then disappeared for a year and a half. Considering her last post was about depression most people figured that was the reason for her absence. And her first update in a long time was yesterday, and first comic was today, which is cool. I highly recommend it to everyone. As always things with me are...okay. Not good. Not bad, just...meh.
  7. The fall and rise of a man who clawed his way into high society.

    Chapter 1

    Serafin Falls Chapter 1 these awful people The night was hot, heat that permeated clothes, skin, and made everyone generally miserable; generally miserable being the default position of most people in this place. There was barely any room in the bathroom stall of this warehouse party. I had finished the rest of my cocaine before leaving the restroom when I immediately spotted Jon in the middle of the room, laughing among friends. Jon moved as effortless as a movie star in a perfectly tail
  9. Hi everyone. Hope you're doing well. I, for the record, am not. I really can't say what it is exactly, but I'm getting closer and closer to telling someone about how serious things have gotten for me. Hospitalization is looking like a reality. If I could just drop everything and take care of myself the way I need to, the way I should, then I would. But work and school and other...stuff keeps me from doing it. That, plus the very serious cost it would take. I can't even deal with that right now. Well that's a half-truth. I think the stigma of actually having to be hospitalized keeps me from doing it. People knowing. I'm a pretty private person and so for everyone to know about me in that way, knowing how severely depressed I am and...I don't even know. Peopole knowing the truth of the whole situation bothers me. Staying sober is becoming more and more of a challenge. I am still (sober I mean) so...yay, I suppose. A day at a time? A nice phrase I think. Sorry for the rambling. Its been a bad few...I don't even know what.

    Chapter 2

    Chapter 2 -Lo siento. Lo siento, no.- -My father’s name was Shepherd. He was what I am, a Harlequin. A protector for those like you. He took his name from his grandfather, a famous Harlequin who saved the lives of many people when an operation went bad. But in the end my father didn’t deserve the name. He betrayed us, he sold our secrets to the Tabula, and he was killed for it. Not by my hand, but if I had known...I think I might have done it myself. At the time he was still training me t
  11. Hey everyone. Haven't been around in a while and I thought I'd check in. See how you all were doing. Very glad to see the thread still alive. Hope you're all doing well. Things for me have been...tempestuous. But that seems to be typical. Lots of love.
  12. This reminds me of Six Feet Under.
  13. I typicially hate covers. Hate. Hate, hate, hate. An artist has a vision and I think the final recording of a song that realized, to be heard as it's supposed to. However, I heard this version of Creep by Radiohead and I think it's brilliant.
  14. Sarah Monette's Mélusine is the first novel in her Doctrine of Labyrinths series and is seriously one of the best fantasy books I've ever read. There are two main characters, one of whom is gay, so that's a plus. Its about a wizard Felix and the former assassin Mildmay. It is completely original, incredibly well written behind a great story and a vivid and rich setting. I have been extolling the virtues of the entire series for a long time and entreat everyone to check it out. It is difficult to find though, so I suggest Amazon.
