Am twitchy. Would like to take a break from Midnight but do not want to write something complicated and bound to be at least twenty pages >_o Something simple, only I seem to suck at simple or short, and I don't really want to write drabbles. *sigh* I think the main problem is that I don't know what to write. None of my ideas really work well, not to my satisfaction.

Well, I guess I could go begin research for the Butchering of Robin Hood.

EDIT

Rough outline accomplished. Now to start putting the pieces together. I think I've actually managed to be moderately creative with Maid Marion (and sorry, she and Robin remain the cannon here).

Seeing as I stand no chance of making this accurate, historically speaking, I'm treating it largely as fantasy and therefore I totally get to use my fake old speak from Always There and other such type stuff. I apologize to my friends across the ocean for the butchering which will shortly commence (but I can't be as bad as hollywood, eh?)

Sorry. :(


Uhhhhh...If it'll make you feel better, I have a scanner now? So if you, say, wanted (a) certain character(s) drawn, something might be arranged.....<3

Oh, it's not your fault, dearest. No reason to apologize. I just have not come up with a rewrite which pleases me.

I like surprises. But you'd better not be drawing them in panties or other girlie things.

You know, I was going to be good and draw Nankyo in a pretty robe, but now he's getting a kimono. >:3

suggestions

well... there's:
- androids
- grim reapers
- sky pirates (think that boat in starlight)
- fire demons
- programmers and VR worlds
- time travelers
- Loch ness monster?
- mafia?

(Although, of course, these are just characters, so I suppose I'm asking if you'd find any of these characters interesting)

as for faerie tales, I've always been partial to the story of the seven swans.

I AM EXCITED. Robin hood was, like, on of the only stories my grandma told me that wasn't of Native American or Indian origin. IT RAWKS.

O_O You're doing Robin Hood? SRSLY?

*jumps around like an idiot*

Maid Marion/Robin is the norm with society now, but I wonder about it in 50 years XD I mean, the UK TV version has a girl in the merry men, who is both of asian heritage and a doctor, lol.

Treating it as fantasy is the best way to go IMO :) CAN'T WAIT!

*laugh* I told you I would, at some point. Did you not see the small bit of it I posted last night?
