Like a Puzzle...

Apparently I just really like to hear myself typing today? Here's some random info. ( Read more... )

Weird random situation where Taran must go to some sort of Vampire Function, and must have some human thrall because Reasons. He is a shitty vampire and has no idea how to even try to enthrall someone. Grabs a random Drew off the street and basically says "You. You're my thrall now. For tonight." Drew is confused because what even is a thrall random stranger, so Taran reluctantly explains the situation. Drew ponders over it and decides that he will help this stranger because of course he will. Also, he has only ever seen vampires in movies, so it's neat that he's just met a real one, and will meet many other real ones!

He spends the whole Function meeting vampires and announcing that Taran is "my vampire! :D I am his thrall and very happy :D :D" Some of the vampires find him endearing, some find him annoying, and most of them wonder what the hell kind of thrall he is because thralls actually aren't supposed to be so chatty. Taran wonders what the hell he's gotten himself into.

Aaaand then he finds out his thrall is a sea monster.

Taran has started returning Drew's hugs, even though it seems to make him uncomfortable.


Also he is shocked, shocked! at the random kisses. Shocked, I tell you. AHAHAHA LOOKIT THAT FACE. X3

Brandon seems to be fairly ambivalent. Seeing as how his significant other isn't properly equipped for birthing and adoption is hard, he doesn't really feel like bothering. Also, he's not sure his raising a kid would be a very good idea (though he seems to be doing well enough in Kearny 'Verse).

Max is too neurotic to try breeding. He can barely handle himself sometimes, so trying to care for spawn is just right out. It'd be a Very Bad Idea, success in Kearny 'Verse notwithstanding.

Lil' Max currently assumes he'll probably have kids 'one day' as that's what people seem to do. Nevermind the fact that deep down he's actually not interested at this point in time, nor is he really sure he'll be interested in the future.

Ryan possibly shouldn't have spawned, but oops. The Trio turned out fairly well, regardless of his hand in their upbringing, or lack thereof. Given the chance to participate in the actual raising he would've done his best, and probably he would've been good at it. Jerry did a good job helping with the youngest, at least, but has no chilluns of his own. That he knows of.

It's possible that Drew is equipped to carry children. The Telmeri are weird like that. Though I think if he were to get pregnant he'd freak out at least a little. I kinda doubt he's ever seen a pregnant male anything. Really, he doesn't worry about it right now, as his people only spawn after adulthood and he's not 'of age' yet, so the equipment should be nonfunctional.

Taran hates kids. He won't breed unless he somehow manages to get Drew knocked up. In the unlikely event that this happened, he'd flip his shit hard, and the spawn possibly wouldn't even make it to birth.

Chad, too, hates kids and will not breed. No amount of whining, begging, threatening, etc will change his mind. Also he's too smart to be oopsed.

As far as Argon is concerned, the family line ends with him. End of story. He spent a good portion of his life raising his sister practically on his own, and that was more than enough, thank you very much. Of course if Sylvie has children, then the line can continue under a different name. That's fine too.

Nic is pretty sure he wouldn't mind being a father, but considering he's with Argon, that just won't happen. He accepts and is fine with this. Besides, he can have all the Kodak moments he wants helping out with Sylvie.

As for Ozoka and Shiro? With Shiro's health problems and 'Zoka's mental imbalances raising children would just be cruel. It's a sort of unspoken agreement between them. That and 'Zoka is Too Damn Horny to be around impressionable children.

I thought this would be fun, and at least a little distracting...

( fun with randomosity! )

Randomly, this came up when I was fiddling around on Astrology.com:

Your Daily Horoscope - Aries

It's time to face the truth of who you are, rather than act like who you think you are. It's never easy to find your own values, but in order to live well, it's absolutely necessary. Remember your essential nature.

Taran is an Aries. I think it's a rather fitting reading. So I kept fiddling, and came up with this:

Section 1: How You Approach Life and How You Appear To Others
You are very strong-willed and proud, but intensely private and not easy to know well. Behind your quiet exterior lies a great deal of emotional depth, sensitivity, complexity, and also fierce determination. When you want something you go after it rather quietly but insistently and wholeheartedly - and you usually get it.

True. VERY true.

Section 2: The Inner You: Your Real Motivation
You are a person who thrives on challenge, and you often feel that you must battle your way through life, depending upon no one and nothing but your own strength, intelligence, and courage. You believe in being totally honest, true to oneself and one's own vision and convictions, even if that means standing alone. Honesty, integrity, personal honor, and authenticity are your gods, and you have no sympathy for weakness of character in others.

Mostly true. Except about the honesty. Anything beyond that required monies, so I stopped there. Still pretty cool.

Fun stuff, astrology.

Taran-babbles, out of nowhere. Imagine he's somewhere secluded, scribbling in an old beat-up notebook. He does that sometimes, apparently.

( on random travels )

Whee, another one. He's not as developed as some of the others, but he's also fairly new. I'm posting this now because lately he's been bouncing around all "Pay attention to me, bitch!" and I must oblige.

( The stats and such )


Well. That's not quite all of it, but it's an idea. Not so much fun just putting everything out there right from the get-go, yeah? So anyway, I played around with that fun dollmaker again to sort of get an idea of what he (normally) looks like. Here we go. ( Pictures, yo )

And because I did it for 'Zoka and Drew, ( here's Taran's results for that purity test )


And that's about it for right now. I've gotta write him into a story or something before he drives me crazy. ^_^
