Haha, right? XD And yeah, it was pretty great!

Yes, watch the movie version! Just when you do remember that I'm not some weirdo, it's just the plot of the entire musical is so dumb that it's hilarious! Man, I'm totally putting that book on my list! I love books that make me feel something. Have you ever read Marley and Me? I bawled for days after that.

I wish I could get into photography! My sister is, and my cousin has made a career out of it, but when I try and take pictures they always turn out awful! But your's are great and I think it's a wonderful idea to try and capture every single moment so that you can remember it, that way when you're older you can go back and look through them and it will bring back all those old memories.

It was so great I was reading Song of Susannah by Steven King (I just typed David King for some reason.. what?) I think it's like the sixth or seventh book in the Dark Towers series. I keep on having to take breaks though, the book is seriously, pardon my language, a mind fuck.

Remember that you're not a weirdo, ok I'll try ;) But yeah I'll check it out! I haven't read Marley and Me but I want to! I loved the movie even though it was like an arrow to the heart at the end.

Just keep taking pictures if you want to get better! And better yet, show them to people who know about photography and ask them to critique it. There are lots of online tutorials too that give you some basic info about framing, focus, rule of thirds, all that stuff.

I've actually never read a single Steven King novel, isn't that terrible? xD I'd probably like them, I don't know why I never have. Right now I'm listening to David Copperfield on audiobook. I love audiobooks cuz I can "read" while I cook dinner and stuff.

Hey so I had an idea for our RP and I want to know what you think. I had in mind that Mila isn't the only vampire running around in the area. She's met a few in the past but most of them have been pretty barbaric even by her standards. It might be interesting if Charlie and Mila ran into some of these vampires with more "traditional" views on human/vamp relationships. We could each play one. And I think this should happen after Charlie discovers Mila's secret.

Do it, it's so funny! The movie version of Marley and Me just killed me! I went with my mom, my cousin and two of my aunts to see it in theatre not very long after my aunt had her dog put down... it was awful.

That's what I'll probably do, like I said my sister is really good at it so maybe I'll steal her camera some time :p But to be perfectly honest I'm more apt to be on the other end of the camera! Hehe, I'm really into modelling and stuff like that.

*Cries* that is terrible! Start with Cujo or Pet Cemetery, they're really good! Or Carrie, that's his first novel which is also amazing! I never fully gotinto audiobooks or kobos or anything like that, it's weird but there is just something about holding a book that I love; especially older books. But the idea of audiobooks is really great, especially when you don't have the time to sit down and read! David Copperfield, that's by Charles Dickens right?

I was thinking that we should do something like that! We can't just go on doing mundane stuff forever, that will get boring incredibly fast... I really like that idea, of having other vampires come into play and start stirring up trouble. Just out of curiosity, would these two vampires be acquainted with each other as in have some sort of relationship, like are they family or friends or something like that? I just highly doubt that there would be two random vampires in the same area for different reasons, but I suppose that's all something we can figure out later. Also, speaking of Charlie finding out about Mila, when is it that you wanted that to happen?

Oh, that's so sad ;_; That would be a rough movie to see after something like that. A few days ago, an older man who came to my register was being a real jerk to me for no reason, but I stayed sweet and as I handed him his receipt, his whole demeanor changed and he apologized and told me he was about have his dog put down. It made me kind of emotional after that.

Ooh modeling, get it girl! xD That's pretty cool. Do you have a lot of experience?

Haha, *cries* xD You're killin' me. They really are that good, huh? I mean, eh? Ok, I'll check those three out, maybe get on on audiobook for when I finish David Copperfield. Yep, it's by Charles Dickens. It's really good. I remember we were supposed to read Great Expectations when I was in 8th grade and I hated having to read it with a passion, but I read it again a year ago and couldn't put it down! 8th grade was waaay too young for me to catch all the subtleties and humor x)

Yeah exactly, I think we could easily spice things up. How about, the two new vampires are long time friends. This part of town has been their hunting ground for a long time so when they discover Mila, there's some automatic tension. They could run into her any number of ways. Maybe they decide to chow down on Charlie one night and Mila steps in. Or joins ins, I don't know >) We'll see. Or they run into Mila first and want her to be a part of their team. She may or may not have issues with their feeding habits.

I think she should find out soon, like tonight, the RP's tonight.

Oh my goodness, I probably would have cried to be honest (over emotional say wah).

I have some experience, like I said my cousin is a professional photographer so we use to do shoots all the time before she got all "small town famous" and didn't have time anymore. My sister is just getting started though so we'll probably do a couple shoots together this summer which will be fun, actually we already have a "tumblr photoshoot" idea in place! Haha

They are that good, eh! I haven't read anything by Charles Dickens, but I suppose he must be a really good author as well! Ahh, yes, I love re-reading novels I read when I was younger and catching all the little things I didn't before. I read The Memory Keepers Daughter when I was in grade six and reread it last year and it was 100x better. Same goes for the entire Morganville Vampire series which I have read at least a thousand times since I was ten, they're definitely worth reading if only for the characters! (Just so you know, my ten year old self was incredibly advanced in the books that she read, so no they are not lame kid books!)

Okay, perfect! My obsessive need to know what is going on has been sedated, thank you. XP Also, that all seems incredibly evil and I love it just saying.

Her finding out RP's tonight sounds good!

That's impressive though :D The tumblr photoshoot with your sister sounds fun, are you guys close? I have a younger brother, who's much taller than I am, and our bonding activities include slamming into each other as we practice soccer or hockey in the backyard/driveway haha xD

Oh I think one of my friends wanted me to read The Memory Keepers Daughter, I do want to check that one out. My ten year old self was not as interested in books as she should have been and more interested in rolling around in the dirt outside lol. We were living in Texas when I was ten and I just remember living outside with the other neighbor kids. I really owe it to JK Rowling for getting my kid self interested in reading. After I consumed the first two Harry Potter books, I had to find books to tide me over until the next one came out x) And it was the first Lord of the Rings movie that got me into drawing! I was totally sheltered growing up, as far as watching R rated movies, even pg-13 lol. LOtR was like the first non-Disney movie I saw and it sort of blew my mind. Then my dad bought me the concept art book for Christmas and I became obsessed with drawing scenery and characters and costumes, etc.

Yay, we shall make it totally evil and action-packed x) I think I want to play a male vampire. We should go ahead and hash out the details of these two friends' relationship. Professional, flirty, antagonistic? Personally I think antagonistic would be fun x) Like siblings, but they're not related. Think we can pull that off?

I have to work form 3-11pm again tonight ;_; Whhhhhyyy, why do they always give me long shifts and make me train everyone D: D: D: D: Help me Dx I swear if any crazies start arguing prices with me I'm just going to practice my drop kicks with their groceries D<

We are pretty close, yeah! We have a lot in common, like we both dace and have some of the same friends and we both love reading and stuff, also there's only two years between us so we've just always been close! I guess it would just be weird if I wasn't that close with her... I think it's nice that you're close with your brother! I've always wanted a brother to be honest!

My ten year old self was a sour puss and didn't like getting dirty, you would not believe the girly girl I was when I was younger! I am such a potterhead, oh my god! I love Harry Potter! XD The books that really got me into writing and stuff were (and I swear you cannot judge me) the Twilight books, and also the Darkest Powers Trilogy. really? I watched Lord of the Rings with my dad when I was, well it would have had to been before grade three since we moved from that house when I was in grade two... so I would of been 8-ish... my parents have never been all that strict about the movies I watch (within reason, I couldn't see GoT for the longest time, but finally they gave in). As for drawing... I can do a stick figure... maybe haha, I suck at it :P What type of costumes do you draw??

I can play a female one, I'm more use to that anyways! I agree, their relationship should be more familial then flirtatious, like brother and sister, since we've already got a more "romantic" relationship going on. What if we made it a mixture of antagonistic/professional with a bit of a power-play aspect, like their constantly trying to gain the more dominant position in their relationship? I think a little tug and pull, and conflicting personalities, would be very interesting! And hell yeah we could pull it off XD

going to practice my drop kicks with their groceries Oh my god that just killed me! I was in my aunts house reading that on my phone and started laughing so hard and everyone was like "What the hell is you're problem..." But you should do that, and if the police come for ya just run, I'll get you over the border, eh :p

I've always thought it would be cool to have a sister x) The grass is always greener.

You were a girly girl? xD I was such a tomboy. I'm not really any more, but I guess there are still some tomboyish things about me lol. Oh I used to draw all kinds of outfits, mostly fantasy-type stuff when I was younger. I don't draw as much costume/fashion drawings right now, since I'm so focused on page layout, web graphics, logos, stuff like that, but I still do it for fun sometime. I'll have to scan some drawings some time and show off to you. x)

Ooh yes, I love the sound of a little power-play dynamic between those two >) That will be fun. Pfft, yeah, what am I thinking, we got this x) Two pros like us.

Haha! xD Yessss, finally I have someone on the other side to smuggle me out, I can do anything now! xD But yeah, unfortunately there are times when I feel like that... Luckily pretty rare though, I have a lot of regular customers who like me :D aww. And no one was bitchy to me during my whole shift today yay! Guess I'll have to practice the old fashioned way.

No truer words have ever been said!

Oh my gosh, yes! And I was whiny... I think back on it now and mentally kick myself because I must have been a pain in the ass. Although, I did go through a tomboy stage (or what I called a tomboy stage) and when I couldn't find a ball cap to wear I put shorts on my head and pretended. But shhh, don't tell anyone that's really embarrassing. Also, dude! Just show them off, I'd love to see some of your work.

Pros, exactly! Hehe. I'm actually really excited for this idea! (And I kinda helped! I never help with plots! woot woot)

That must suck, another reason why jobs aren't my thing. I probably would hit someone if they made me mad enough. That's like a double edged sword right there, people weren't bitchy yet you didn't get to sucker-punch anyone... XD

Lol I can't help but picture a tiny, bossy girl, making demands at people and wearing shorts on her head xDD hahaha I should draw that. And sweet, yeah I'll make another thread for art related stuff x)

You totally helped/more than that, made the call :D You say you don't help with plots? That kinda surprises me actually, I would think you'd come up with some fantastic plots. You certainly help move the story along really well.

Yeah, suppressing violent urges is just part of the job, especially one that has any kind of customer service aspect to it x) That's true about the double-edged sword...I'll just have to save my punches for tomorrow night x) Idk, I exaggerate a little about people being rude, most of them are actually pretty nice or just indifferent. Some people will tell you anything though xD I have ongoing conversations with some people that we pick up again whenever they come to my register. Other people will just give me stuff, like magazine, candy, tips, coupons, I got concert tickets one time, crazy stuff! And then there's the usual creepy old guys *shudder* And lots of people my age who are my favorite because a) I can relate to them and b) they know how to use the debit machine. Once, one of my professors came into the store. Oh god xD I didn't see him until I started scanning his groceries and said the usual "Hi, how are you, did you find everything-.. oh! It's you!" xD It was actually pretty cool, we had a fun conversation. He didn't know I worked part-time and I think it's given him a good impression of me.

Haha, that's exactly what I was like XD And yes, I can't wait to see you're drawings!

Meh, I don't help if it's something someone has already come up with. I hate butting in and giving my opinion because I don't want people to feel obligated to agree and on the flip side of that I have this awful fear of being shut down. I'd go into more depth on that one, it's a loooong complicated story that goes back to my childhood school-days, but yeah let's just leave it at that.

Haha, that's me when I'm buying stuff! I'll just go on with full conversations with the person at the cash and it's probably super annoying but I just love talking! Ahaha. Wait, people give you stuff? That's enough to make me want a job tbh... what concert tickets was it that you got?? Ew, creepy old guys *double shudder* I can understand that one! That's really cool about your professor though, I love seeing my teachers in public (unless it's my bio teacher, she is a few nasty words that I won't write on the internet) and talking to them, mostly cause I get along with all of my teachers pretty well on a personal basis. Like in my gym class I'll always stay after class and talk to my teacher about ways he could get more flexible for karate, and also about training techniques for dance and other physical education-y stuff. XD Anyways, yeah I'm sure it did give him a really good impression!

I'm sure they don't think it's annoying at all, they're probably glad/relieved to have someone nice and interesting to chat with for a few minutes before it's back to obnoxious, entitled people. At least that's how I am! The ongoing conversation people are almost always patient and understanding when there's an issue with their transaction or some other problem comes up, so I love them. Still, some of them tell me more than I guess I would probably tell a cashier x) Geez, I'm trying to think of a good example, but I'm drawing a blank haha.

I like seeing my teachers outside of class too, it seems to remove some kind of barrier somehow and make it easy to approach them. At least, I feel that way with my college professors, I don't think I always thought that about my high school teachers x) Except my psychology teacher who was the mom of one of my friends. She was awesome.

So you think we should each write up a quick bio/background thing for our new vampires? I think it might be helpful, since we have to know each other right from the get go.

Well that's nice to know! I would never get too personal when I talk to random people, though! That just kinda crosses the line from friendly banter into Over-share-ville, haha. Mostly I would just say something about the weather or if there was music playing I'd say something about that. I was in forever 21 one time and had a whole conversation with the cashier about how amazing Madge is XD

I guess it would be better in uni then high school, since you're both adults. But the teacher at my school are all really personable with the students which is really nice. There isn't many teachers who I would be scared to approach with anything I needed. Haha, I can't imagine being taught by one of my friends moms, that would just be so weird, but probably also awesome.

Okay, so I have a couple ideas but I was just wondering how it was we planned for these two to meet? And I also think that they should already know Mila, too.

Yeah, I had that same thought, about them already knowing Mila somehow, that way they can recognize her. We could make it so that they had a brief run in with her in the past. Something sort of neutral, like they were briefly hunting partners, back when Mila was still into reckless feeding frenzies. They would balk now, to see the way she goes about finding semi-permanent arrangements. Humans are all the same playthings to them, except some taste better than others. So they'd be amused by her and be like, ok that might be fun for a while but we know you'd rather do it our way, come hang out with us again.

I totally don't mean to make all the decisions btw, feel free to add to this or change something! I won't feel obligated to go along, and I'm definitely not going to shut you down x) But speaking of that, I'm a pretty good listener when it comes to long, complicated stories, in case you want to vent or anything.

Oh I forgot to say I'm judging you about the Twilight thing. Just kidding, I enjoyed the first one just as much as the next pre-teen girl. I liked Alice in particular. Never finished the third book though.

Oh yeah and the concert tickets were for Rascal Flats, so it was cool, but I'm not really a fan of theirs x) I gave them to some friends who I knew would appreciate it more than I would.

As for how we met, we could make it so that one of our characters "turned" the other. And that's why they're so close. There's so many interesting time periods we could have them come from. My mind automatically goes to like the American Civil War period, or maybe the Great Depression. Or the goldrush/wild west era. Ack, I'm stuck in American history x)

Oh btw I love forever21! xD

No, I like that idea a lot actually :) I was gonna suggest them briefly "working together" in the past, so that works for me. Also, peer pressure, wow! ;)

As for how the other two vamps met themselves, I was thinking perhaps one changed the other or they were changed by the same vampire parent (what the hell would you call that, I don't know... ) and they met that way, so basically they've known each other their whole un-dead lives.

Meh, I'll just give you the very filtered, non-complicated version of things. So my entire life I've been bullied really badly, I guess, even though it would probably appear to people that I was really well liked 'cause I've always hung around the "in crowd". But all through elementary school I was bullied in just little kids way, name calling and all of that stuff, but it got worse when I started middle school. I hung out with the wrong crowd of people who really tore me apart, pretending to be my friends and then stabbing me in the back over and over again. By the time I got to grade eight I had been told numerous times that I wasn't good enough and even had people come up to me and say "Em, we don't think we can be friends anymore" and then after that the person that I went to for help ended up posting stuff about me on facebook and yeah... I can remember one day in grade eight standing around with my "friends" and we were talking about how some guy hung around with people and they didn't want him around or something and right beside me someone whispered "Yeah, like Emily". That's honestly that's not even the half of what I went through, and needless to say it kinda screwed my up royally when it comes to speaking my opinion and trusting people. I've done some not so nice things because of it, and there are still some days when getting out of bed is hard, but I started hanging out with some new people who weren't the stereotypical "popular" crowd and my best friend has really helped me get past a lot of that shit.

Now that the mood has been dampened a bit *cough cough awkward silence* I knew you were cool for a reason! XD They actually weren't bad books, and yes! Alice, her and Jasper were my favorites. I also liked Rosalie after she opened up in the third book, but you may not have read that part.

That's really awesome, haha!

Edit: I swear I never saw that second post when I wrote this one! Freaky that we kinda had the same idea....

Edit numero 2: Yes, I love those ideas! I had an idea for an African American character... so if that gives you any more ideas! Her name is Lisette and here is a picture of her:

... and yes Forever21 is the best place ever, heaven-like even

Woah, that is kind of freaky haha! We both even started with "As for how.." Dude, we're on the same wavelength :D I like your idea of them being changed by the same vampire; that way, we could say they both went through the initial struggle and "coming to terms with their new selves" phase together.

Man, that really sucks D: Those assholes!! D< You've probably heard this a million times, but everything gets better when you get to college. People are cooler and more chill and you're surrounded by so many new people that there's no pressure to be part of a soul-sucking clique. You just find people you like. But it sounds like you've done that already so that's cool :) You sound like a really intelligent, motivated, passionate person. No way should you hang around low-lifes who are going to bring you down!! D< You're not even gonna be bothered by them soon because you'll be some famous dancer somewhere and have way more interesting, worth while people to occupy your thoughts. ..Ah, I'll get off my soap box now lol. See how I need a little sister to give my "wise" life advice to? xD

Ah man, I don't think I did :/ I wanted to like Rosalie.

EDIT: Oooh I love!! Dang, how did you find such great pics so fast?? She looks perfect for the part. Shall I be some white Southern boy? x)

Well then that's settled! They'll be turned by the same person :) I like the idea of them going through fledlinghood (is that a real thing... It's late so making up words is okay!) together. Maybe the power struggle in their relationship is derived from this time in their lives; we could always come up with some sort of vampire society-type-situation that explains some more about the hierarchy (or perhaps standard rules that they abide by, since it's probably more of an anarchy then anything). I have some ideas for this tbhat are a lot more interested then I'm making them sound at the moment, I'll type that up tomorrow and send it to you to see what you think...

Thanks (: It reall is getting better, I dont feel alone anymore. It's just such a complicated situation and hardly anyone knows what I've felt/been through. It feels nice to get it off my chest once in a while. (:

Hehe, thanks! I have a couple keywords that I put into google or tumblr that always produce good pictures and also don't seem really creepy :p

Uh, hell yeah to the white southern boy bit!

Nah, fledglinghood is a good word to describe it lol. When they're just immature, bloodlusty psychos. I'm clearly influenced by Twilight, but who cares! I like the idea of them having to learn to control their impulses. So really, they're a lot younger than Mila. And yeah, there should be some hierarchy thing and some basic rules they don't cross.

Good, vent anytime you want. I mean, you've put up with me whining about customers so.. xD

Cool, Southern charmer it is then x) I'll find a picture and write some info about him tomorrow.

Ah man, I should say good night now, I'm about to nod off heh. Good night!! Sweet dreams
