13endes: We're gonna die.

PD: Don't listen to me, listen to that. *SCREECH*
Those're dragons, my friend. Ready to rain fire down on those arrogant hellspawn, send em back to the hot-place.

Zoe: Just got a call from High Command. The dragons, they ain't coming.

I also had to keep my hat firmly on my head. I've been feeling some nobbles growing on my forehead recently. Plus it's getting uncomfortable to sit down. Now reign those dragons back. Not like I'm planning to switch sides on you now.

Ooh, is that Jack Daniels? Gimmee! (Ooops, have I just given myself away?!)

What happened? He see your face?

Hey there’s that Molson I was looking for over in RWED. thanx PP!
...and all the images are great! That is a crazy pic Emma. Wow!

*Presses > button*

The dragon and phoenix clans screech miles up in the sky occasionally raining down fire; battling their newfound opponents. PD rolls into a tight ball, hits the ground and pops up, staff connecting under the chin of his nearest foe. His face covered in ash, blood, and dust, he appears indistinguishable from his wretched enemy. He knows he is no demon. (Well… maybe weekends

)

Uuuurrrcckkk!

*The sound of the 'taur jerks PD’s attention. 13 had made it this far and the demons converged ferociously upon him.*

13: Noooooooooooooooo......

*Just as Pd fears he is too late, a strange whirring sound echoes against the landscape. A silver mist rises from the plain and engulfs the horde, until no demon stands. The red sky darkens as a thunderous boom cracks. One translucent being appears above the horizon, larger than the biggest of dragons. He speaks.*

Being: "GoooooooD! Excellent!" (The Emperor or Mr. Burns, take your pick)

"You have done well, You have done well... I doooooooo have an interest in your…, how you say, SMORE?"

Are we all done ignoring each other now? It's not very fun.

No-one's ignoring you, PR. Don't get upset. But don't spoil other people's fun if they want to squash little pockets of resisitance. I've been too bust to partake fully but I quite understand that lots of people have different images in their head that they want to see played out. Hey, it's a big battlefield. There was room for more than one fighting hotspot! Anyway. I think they're all gone now. Just a smoking ruin covered in crispy corpses left. Hmm, pleasant!

No one is ignoring me except the people who are. I don't know if I've been uninteresting or unclear, or if some folk aren't paying attention to what they read, or maybe they're not reading what I say at all, maybe I get burried by too many other posts, but there have been way too many times this week where I've felt I don't exist. Either a reply to me hasn't made any sense with what I said, or I've been ignored entirely. I tried to join the fun at the hidey thread and a few people welcomed me and at least one was passively-aggressively hostile, refusing to speak to me directly and implying that I had no right to be there at all. I haven't felt much like going back there because the behavior persists; he literally refuses to aknowledge that I exist. It's not as bad elsewhere, but I still have had the feeling that I'm simply invisible. Not from everyone, not constantly, but regularly. This isn't helped by the fact that my life is tumbling down around me and, despite my good review, I can't seem to do anything right at work because people don't bother to tell me when policy changes because I'm like the night ghost; they rarely see me. It's very frustrating and it's particularly frustrating when it happens here because this is where people actually talk to me. Just that some of them aren't. At all. It's the equivelent feeling of jumping up and down in front of someone wearing nothing but bright body paint and being looked right through.
This doesn't apply to everyone; many people have been aknowledging me, but more people than usual have been looking right through me.
So I'm sorry to be snarky. It'll pass. Maybe if I find a job that doesn't make me bang my head on the desk.
You make a good point about the size of the battlefield though.

Heh. Yeah, teenage years were the ultimate in no fun. It's gotten better as I've gotten older, but I still get bouts of... this.
I blame my job. Partly. I think it's at least a little bit responsible for my total lack of human contact. Which always makes things harder. Well, there's also my awkwardness when trying to talk to people I don't know.
Maybe I should try the body paint

They're penguins. But yes, of course anyone can join! There is lots of decadence, epic battles, roasting and eating of our ememies, and of course dancing naked around the fire.
Also, there are s'mores. Sometimes there is s'more flambe, if we have rum.

The battle cont. was more for 13. Who is 14. (or at least he says) I just dipped back to my Drizzt Do'Urden days of when I was 14. Felt good. He is the only one that had said he was WITH ME in the previous thread. I DID wrap it up quick like.

Don't worry honey, the attitude in some other places is a clique thing. Won't go away anytime soon, its the way of the 'verse. Yes, much like high school.

How 'bout some left-over party items from the fourth to get us going.

...and how do we celebrate?

Flambes
Margaritas
Liquor Luge

irish whiskey
troll dogs
coffee

fruit of all kinds
Sake

Yes, it is a shiny program of much awesomeness!
However, there are things about it which can't be self-taught. *winces* My ex is actually responsible for a lot of my prowess with the tools, but I'm responsible for all the practice and work I put in. Once you learn what all the tools are actually for, though, the rest can be self-taught; it's quite user-friendly. Lots of experimentation. The best thing in the world is the history, which lets you go back if you really mess up. I usually just mess with something endlessly until it does what I want. I'm an intuitive photoshopper. There are probably a lot of folk who could give step-by-step instructions; I would be very bad at that.
Books on the subject are expensive, but I would still suggest getting one. Or taking a class. Then mess with it a lot.
Can we tell I love this program? I'll shut up now.

Anyway, I'm only here now and then, and my new job hasn't left much time for me to be here during the daytime (for me EST, GMT -5) and evenings have been taken up by MCSE classes, reading and studying, so if I'm one of the people who seems to be ignoring you, I sincerely apologize.

If I'm just being arrogant by assuming that I'm one of the people you're talking about, I also apologize.

*pats jossisagod on the shoulder*
Let me let you in on a secret; most of what I have in photobucket is not an original creation. Penguin can make emotes and I can make photoshops, and people find shiny things, and we all... "exchange" and "borrow" a lot.

Just to give credit where it is due, I got the dragon from Penguin.

Hey PhoenixRose,
How ya holding up? Hang in there, trust me it will get better. Worst comes worst if they ain't playen nice, don't give them a 2nd thought. I've been in the situation my self ---- Japan is very much that way especially to Gaijin or foreigners ie the nail that sticks out the most gets hammered down the most. On the one hand I've taken my fare share of Bull, but on the other I have some strong friends over there that are able to see past the whole gaijin B.S. and accept me for who I am. So hope things are going better for you. Oh by the way saw Pirates and loved it. A little diff then the commercials make it out to be in a spot or two, but the equal of the first. Gotta have our two Capts leading the way huh. Well take it easy and stay shiny !!!!! by the way here is a hug for ya.
