Oh no, not at all! That is a quote by CS Lewis. (I'm surprised that I didn't attribute it, but I did switch things up in my profile recently so must have forgotten.) 
I love that quote because of how it challenged my perspective. A person's soul is eternal, the body is temporal. And who are we /really/... certainly not just this mass of atoms that comprise our form.

Oh, I like it even better now~! He's one of my favorite authors. =] And you're very right, that's why it attracted my attention. Not many understand that. Thanks for sharing!

Hi! I recently realized that I hadn't been on DA in months. After I finally remembered my username/password combo, I discovered over 200 messages in my inbox. Oops.

Thank you for the compliment! I apologize that I'm unlikely to utilize the link due to my DA-related activity dwindling to near zero, but I'm very appreciative that you thought of me. Thank you.

Whoa, oops.

My pleasure! I understand what you mean about dwindling activity- I was really inactive for a while, but I've made a comeback due to procrastination (...)

Hope all is well

None at all. I don't have the tools needed for coloring with traditional media, and have no knowledge on how to color digitally, beyond the very basics on Paint. (And anything I do with the basics on Paint looks like a nine year old did it; I can't maneuver a mouse the way I can a pencil or brush.) If you felt like coloring them, however, it'd be fine with me.

As for your second question, I was going to say something along the lines of "No, silly, mine is the signed review with my name on it!" But that was just too obvious, so I checked and...you're right. o_0

Oh, how did the production go?

You have no crayons or colored pencils what so ever? They only cost like five bucks.

My coloring of Uzumaki Mito was done in Paint. All you need is practice and excessive use of the zoom too, which lessens the strain on the mouse hand cause you don't have to worry too much about where you put it..

Wonderful! We had seniors in the cast this year and since the school only goes to 12th grade, this was their last production so it was pretty emotional. Some of the seniors had been there since they were six years old and all the teachers were bawling, especially when we whipped out the bouquets of roses.

It's pretty hard for me to open up, and a couple of the few friends I'd made were among the seniors, so I'll see them who knows when... One of the few factors that's made me actually (gasp!) consider a facebook account (the other being you).


The acting was hard to do, cause you keep crying during all the dances and stuff, and then you have to run on stage and act like nothing is wrong even though CASPAR JUST DIED!! so I always had to wipe my face on my hands or something.


The best scene was the Invasion scene. It was a ballet to the last movement of Vivaldi's summer about the Nazis invading Holland... I can't describe it at all. Just that it is incredible! And one of the students helped choreograph it...

GTG talk later!

No, no it is me. Though it /would/ be strange if someone else (who presumably experienced a similar perplexity over the fact that they can't restrain themselves from writing) decided to choose my odd penname.

Looks like you're plenty busy on DA, it's not like you must be perusing FF as well. Taryn just let me know about one of your photos, the one with the really stylish gal, and I couldn't resist taking a peek at the others.

I think I might be in love with the your little superman/ninja!

Ahhh but FF is my first home! I think the problem s, it's so much easier to take a picture, edit it, and post it than to sit down, write a coherent piece of literature, make sure it's pretty much perfect, and post it. Hmm.

Well, I'm glad you liked it and checked out my other work! You should tell her to tell this 'stylish gal' to keep her hair down more. Because obviously, it looked good.

Why thanks! I love him too He's always saving the world, one way or another. ...

Thanks again!

Did Lady-of-the-Shield tell you about her own fan fiction? She writes very compelling stories, which can be found here: [link]

As for my own work, I have 12 Iruka-centric stories posted on my fanfiction profile: [link]
My fics usually involve Kakashi as well. However, I do not write yaoi.

And of course, you could always browse my "Favorite Stories" if you are searching for more. Swiss Army Knife is a favorite of mine, and wields the English language as an artist wields a paintbrush: [link]
There is also KakashiKrazed who, as the name implies, focuses on Kakashi fics, but often includes our favorite chunin sensei in the action. [link]

Thank you for your interest! I hope you enjoy!

Swiss does not write yaoi. I avoid yaoi, or anything sexually explicit, really, even if it's het. So if you do decide to check out the stories I've written, or the stories I've chosen as favorites, you should be comfortable reading it.

Thanks for the links . I might check them but I'm not promising any thing. Reading a story in another language is kinda of tiring because I have to use the dictionary all the time.

That's the thing I like in you. I like reading stories without worrying about yoai.

I also come here only irregularly, as is evidenced by the fact that I'm only now replying to this 9-day old message.
I've been around DeviantArt for just a couple of months now. You see, someone drew fanart for one of my stories and I found that I couldn't comment on their work until I became a member of this site. Quite devious indeed...
Then I discovered that quite a few individuals have dual membership on FF and DA. I actually did go looking for you, and was saddened that your profile name was in use by someone who's...well...not you. v_v But hey, now I know that you /are/ here!
Thanks for the welcome! I highly doubt I'll ever post my own art. My role here is basically to admire and leave comments on other people's works...as well as amass my own collection of favorite art, when the fancy strikes.
