It’s none of my business what people say of me and think of me. I am what I am and I do what I do. I expect nothing and accept everything. And it makes life so much easier.

“There is no such thing as a new idea. It is impossible. We simply take a lot of old ideas and put them into a sort of mental kaleidoscope. We give them a turn and they make new and curious combinations. We keep on turning and making new combinations indefinitely; but they are the same old pieces of colored glass that have been in use through all the ages.”
- Mark Twain

why hasn't anyone else posted in the IC?


Could be a number of reasons, but most likely due to the holidays. But, since we are past all that and into a new year, things will normalize here again. It's the way of things :)

Besides, I just posted, so now you must feel the wrath of my...eh...posting.
Warm. Wet. Cold.

What the hell? Am I drowning? Seems fitting for someone like me considering it's doubtful I'll survive much longer around here. The food sucks, people pretend to be nice, and the whole place smells like some old lady’s attic after she died in it fifty years ago. But why am I drowning? Oh yeah I know. Isn't it the most horrible way to die? Knowing that you can't possible hold your breath for anymore than a minute -maybe two- before reflex takes over and you find yourself swallowing nothing but gallons of water. And then what? Everything hurts. Everything shuts down. And that “you're fucked” feeling comes just a split second too late.

Yep, this broken world doesn't need me when it has plenty of pussies hanging around willing to put their own pathetic lives on the line for a lost cause.

Wait. Is that a fish swimming up to me? Is it speaking to me? I see the little bubbles coming from it’s mouth.

Did you say something cute little fish?

“Yeah, quit your bitching and wake the fuck up!”


-------------------------------------------------------

The girls eyes shot open, wide and confused, as her blurred vision slowly subsided and the cold nose of her German Shepard poked her in the cheek followed by several quick warm and wet tongue lashes across her forehead and chin.

“Wha..? Ack! , Frodo stop.” She winced at the sticky dog drool running down her face while lifting herself up, realizing the pain on the back of her head was most likely a result of her falling out of bed again onto the hard floor. It was getting to the point that she may as well sleep on the floor considering it’s where she inevitably ended almost every morning since she showed up at the Twin Peaks Asylum. I fitting place for her. For everyone.

An abrupt knock came again, as it seems to each morning, causing Frodo’s ears to perk up and growl at the door. But Vic knew who it was, as it was always the same shit, different day around the place she called “home”.

A second knock came, followed by an immediate third until...

“Come in for fuck’s sake!” The girl exclaimed, feeling the bump on the back of her head. “I heard you the first time, numbnuts!”

Frodo continued to growl, backing away as the door slowly opened and the head of an older paled skin guy with a beard poked through, his dark eyes darting from the dog and then over to Vic.

“Why does your mutt constantly bark at me?”

“Because you’re an asshole and he doesn’t like assholes.” She said after a moment, pulling herself up off the floor finally and eliciting a smirk from the bearded man at the door.

“I see you’ve managed to find the floor again.” He said in a smug manner. “And, I like your underwear.”

Vic looked down and sighed, realizing she had only a shirt on that wasn’t quite long enough to cover her lavender PowerPuff Girls underwear. “Oh shut the fuck up Curtis, what is it you want?”

“You mean other than you naked and handcuffed to my-”

“Kill him Frodo” Her interruption was as nonchalant as she could make it, but enough for Frodo to lung at the door snarling and barking just before it closed with the man behind it.

“Fine Vic, be a bitch!” Curtis said in a muffled voice behind the door. “Just know you don’t belong here! Shit, your dog is more of a friend than you are!...”

Victoria knew the secrets that were kept behind the walls of the Asylum, secrets that were there to protect those who sought refuged within her walls from the horrors of the outside world. The infection spread like a wildfire, and those with the “gift” of the lycan, or the werewolf, were prized amongst the large number of people housed at Twin Peaks. Vic, however, did not have what the others had, at least not apparently. She could feel it, even her senses were better than a human’s, but there was no change, no transformation into a beast. She knew she didn’t belong, but the girl didn’t know where else to turn.
Please add a song, if you would ^-^ thanks


Done.


@Rawk "Theme Song" is missing, as well as Also Knowing, but if you have nothing to put in that section, you can leave it out of your CS xD but other than that, it's fantastic <3


Thanks. And yep, those two were omitted on purpose b/c I didn't need them :)

Serving up a fresh CS straight to @A Tattooed Girl


@A Tattooed Girl

Working on a CS and noticed the "wolf appearance" section that mentioned if you don't have a wolf then leave it blank. I may not want one right off the bat, as perhaps it just hasn't happened, and maybe through the course of the story it might. Or, would it make sense to have a character who may never actually change into a wolf, but shares many of the traits (not all, but some)?

Anyway, just some food for thought...
Just an FYI @sharksama, his "sad group" comment was mumbled to himself (per the first line of my post) while he was still sitting in the truck prior to approaching the group :)
Definitely an interesting spin on the "outbreak" genre, and being a modern horror fan it piques my interest.

So, with regard to this: These children who have managed to retain this gene were either made to join the military or trained how to control their "other half".

Which factors help decide whether they will go into the military or simply be trained to control their affliction? Supply (soldiers) and demand?

Anyway, I'll keep an eye on this one since one can never have too many werewolves in their life :)
Boston.

The two hour drive north up Interstate 93 wasn’t nearly as unbearable as Czigani thought it would be, as her anxious mind ran it’s course thinking back to all that had transpired up to this point. Her home, family, life...all taken away in a blink of an eye. The police raid ending in bloodshed, only to have her as the prime suspect, and imprisoned to eventually rot away in a mental hospital she should have never been in. She wasn't crazy...or was she? A creature lived inside her flesh that begged to be awaken and yet it took a tragedy in her life for it to finally reveal itself to a world that could never understand what it was.

Czi turned her head to the left, staring at her new friend who had been driving for most of the trip. An unlikely ally, Kelly was still a Gaje and trusting a non-gypsy was like turning yourself over to the executioner as far as her people were concerned. But regardless, the two women from different sides of the tracks shared an obvious bond that blurred the lines of enmity, even if only for awhile. Beyond that, however, the girl felt something for her that couldn't be explain; a sexual attraction?, an empathetic connection?, or perhaps the need for another she could confide in considering their common affliction? It didn't matter the reason, and as much as Czi didn't want to admit it, she needed her if she was going to survive.

Thankfully Kelly still had a phone, although how she acquired it exactly Czigani didn’t know, but the small bit of dried blood in the upper corner of the screen suggested by force. In anycase, according to a quick search of “Senora Tatiana” and “Boston”, it turned out there was such a person doing business as a Palm and Tarot Reader -basically your modern day fortune teller- in the heart of the city, so both agreed that she would be their first stop.

“I don’t know about you, but I’m starving.” She said a few moment after passing a small diner that was just a block away from their destination. “But who the hell knows if that’s me talking or the freak living inside…” She couldn’t help but smirk at that last part, since what was left but to laugh about an uncontrollable situation. “You game for food?” She rifled through the pockets of her jeans, pulling out several bills of 10s, 5s, and 1s. “And I’ve got about...fifty bucks left from the shit I stole from the hospital…”
