Hehe, Quinn and Shadow don't talk to people they don't know for the same reason then. xD Quinn feels extremely awkward in (most) social situations, mostly because he always hated them when he was younger and hasn't really been able to get over that feeling. Plus, if he sees someone or meets someone he thinks is nice or interesting or funny or whatever, he stumbles over his words and can't think of anything to say. It's kind of proof of August's patience that Quinn is so unhibited around him, because when they first met August could hardly get Quinn to say anything around him. Quinn also hates these situations because when he's embarassed he blushes, and since he's practically white it shows up pretty vividly. xD He's so cuuuuuute.

Hmm... I think Wednesday would be better since 300 comes out on DVD tomorrow and Manda is all excited to watch it, so I'll have to do that with her and she is determined to see it with me tomorrow. We've both already seen it but since it's our favourite movie and we've only seen it once and we wanted to watch it at the beach together but it wasn't out and this is a run-on sentence in a huge way. But Wednesday most likely. And since I'll probably be renting it from Blockbuster or something with my dad I can keep it with me and we can watch it at your house. :D Yayy. Maybe I can rent Pan's Labyrinth too since it's out and we can watch them both in the wee hours of the morning at your house once everyone's asleep. Yes. That would be fun.

I drew the most amazing picture ever. Ever ever. I think it's one of my favourite pictures I've ever drawn. It spawned from watching James Bond (have you seen that, by the way?), Boondock Saints, and Hannibal Rising back-to-back. It's amazing. Oh my gosh. It took, and I kid you not, at least five hours just to draw. I plan on colouring it sometime in Prismas because I can't get the right colouring blending I'd need (there will be lots of shadows in it that will be very difficult to do anyway) with Copics. Plus I trust my skill level with Prismas more. xD; I pretty much killed myself with detail. Everywhere I could add detail I did. Haha, you still don't know what the picture looks like... And I won't explain it; you'll just have to wait and see what it looks like. >:D Though feel free to use your imagination based on what it was inspired by.

GLASSES AND EYEPATCH. >:D

Umm... Try and draw August, but if he's not working out, feel free to try Shruikan... Or Quinn. Whichever's cool.

I am SO frackING HUNGRY RIGHT NOW because the last thing I ate was clam chowder at Mo's at the beach which was like TEN HOURS AGO. So I am going to eat some cereal (almost typed 'serioul') and not be hungry anymore.

This sucks that I am gone for three weeks. I have to schedule times to hang out with all my friends. You, Seri, Manda, and David are all people I need to bestow my presence upon. Blehh. Then again, either I cut my time with my friends short or I cut my time in Europe short... So I think I'll stay with the shortened friend-time, because I'm selfish. :D

And one thing to clear something up... Quinn isn't shy around everyone, just around people he doesn't know. Then he's very shy. Around August and Gedric and Ginny and Bea he's fine. But everyone else and he's like, "I'll just stand here staring at my feet while August talks to them." Because my adorable little Quinn is shyyyyy. xD He's cute. I approve of him.

Okay. Tektek.

I saw Hannible Rising while I was at the beach, which has Gaspard in it, and I was fangirling the whole time because he's so freaking cute.

Anyway. Um.

I'm really bored. :D

I forgot to add that I just ate some delicious toast.

I am going to try and get to sleep within the next hour. Good luck, me.

Question: if they don't do snail mail, what kind of mail do they do?
Well, Seresu isn't a very big place, so they all either talk face-to-face or get their friends to deliver notes to whomever they need to pass information to. Mainly it's all in person communication, though.

And I have a new one! If he/she had to leave on a trip, and they didn't know how long they'd be gone or where they might end up, and they had to be able to carry everything themself, what all would (s)he bring? (list time!)
Oh gosh. This is hard. August would probably bring:
Paper
Pens/pencils
His sword
Three of his favourite books
His boots (but he would wear them)(they're probably steel-toed and combat)
Several pairs of boxers
Pictures of his favourite people
Cute notes that Bea and Ginny and such had given him
Jeans (but he would wear them)
A first-aid kit
Needle and thread (good for sewing clothes or wounds together, and yes, August is totally tough enough to give himself stitches without anesthetic)
Currency
A blanket
Several shirts
Warm socks
A pillow
A toothbrush
Snacks (in case he gets hungry and doesn't have access to food)

I think that's it. Everything else he'd either buy, steal (although he'd rather not have to resort to that), make, or go without. Yup. Actually, I could see most of my characters bringing said things because they're pretty multi-purpose. He'd probably try and sneak a pair of Beatrix's panties in there too, but she'd probably catch him at it. (August is kind of a pervert.)

Anyway. Meh. Tired. Even though I slept until eight PM. And kind of didn't do anything until nine. I need to try and get to sleep at a reasonable hour tonight...

So I went and got a bowl of cereal because I'm not actually old enough to drink. And I actually took the time to eat all the little bread-y bits out of the Lucky Charms before eating the marshmallows. I don't think I've done that in ages. And it feels really early still even though it's almost eleven which is NOT early. But it feels like it should be. And I'm tired. But I'm trying to stay up for a bit so I can be tired at like eleven tonight and end up crashing by midnight. Because I'm off to the beach (again) this weekend, and I don't think my dad will appreciate me staying up until past dawn every day and sleeping until four, somehow. It's one of the things I do that he seems not to like so much.

Anyway. Um. I feel like doing that thing for Quinn so I think I will for lack of anything better to do.
