We read Lord Byron's Manfred for class today, and over the course of our discussion I realized that Emrys posesses certain frightening similarities to that particular manifestation of the Byronic hero. First of all, he's insufferably arrogant and rather self-focused. Then we have the fact that he's continously tormented by his past, he has been made cynical through long experience, he's looking for forgiveness or condemnation (more the latter than the former, since he doesn't believe forgiveness is possible), and his attempts to kill himself tend to get thwarted in a handy manner. Oh, and he firmly believes that humanity should be collectively dropped in a big soapy vat and given a good scrubbing because they're kind of icky.

It's rather silly, if you think about it.

Which means, of course, that he doesn't appreciate the comparison even a little bit. In fact, I think his reaction might somewhat resemble this. Beware the Byronic pillow attack of DOOM!

Have I mentioned lately that

majochan rocks my world hardcore? Because she does. Her coolness is well over the border of astounding.

Huzzah! I do love her Emrys pictures. Wish I could draw like her.

okay, brain cramp here...what's her name? Emrys and ____...I think it begins with N but don't remember...

They're both guys, no matter how pritty Emrys looks. That would be Nghia about to be slammed with the pillow. Somehow I don't think he's going to be able to talk his way out of this one . . .

I hate to be a pain in the neck, but . . . quooooootes? <-- is hopeful

doh. I knew that. That they're guys. I was even thinking it the whole time. I just do be dumb right now. It's the weather.

quotes! yes! I will send them out. Right now. Right right now.

ps. have you done any more writing on the mage and griffon story of late? I enjoyed those muchly.

all sent. Let me know if it arrives and you can read them and so forth. ^_^

I have read them. Damn, they're even funnier than I remember. That was so amazing . . .

I'd be all mopy and nostalgic, except I'm remembering hilariously funny moments.

Don't worry about it. ;-)

I actually have another fairly long snippet completed in my notebook . . . but it needs to be typed up and re-edited. It's also vaguely more plot-related than what I've put up previous to this, although still fairly amusing. Somehow the mage and the gryphon snippets always tend to be humorous, I'm not sure why . . .

They’re. Sharing. Pajamas. With bunnies on them. The cute goes up to my brain and I die.

If they don't, someone should. Everyone who's seen the pic loves the jammies.

I think Rukia would really adore them. Now there's someone who appreciates bunnies . . .

And considering their relative sizes, a Nghia-sized jammie top makes a more-than-adequate Emrys nightshirt . . .

. . . and the bunnies are one of those long-running gags that simply get out of hand after a while . . .
