Well hey Charlie. Hope you like what you check out. An event is currently underway if you wanna join in. ;D

Thanks! You play any of the games?

And you betcha. Any post you make here with some amount of substance is x out of 15.

Hi okios! =D

I dig the animation on your profile.

@star2000shadow: Haha, no worries. I can't draw either, but we can still recognize good art when we see it! I love that you're using the blossom in the hair BTW. It's so cute.

@Concentricity: Going from farmhouse to law office was quite a feat for your ancestors. My family isn't anywhere near as interesting.

Actually, my great-great-great (I may have forgotten a few greats here) grandmother was an Indian princess and had TONS of children. Like, I don't know how she got through them all reaching an age of maturity with her sanity intact. XD

No one in my family went to college except for my oldest brother, and he's now the CEO of an international architect firm. I understand where you're coming from about doing the menial work because he complains about it all the time. He says he went through all the schooling to do architecture, but most of his job is just going through paperwork.

Oh, those were done by you? Great job. I usually dislike the blur effect utilized everywhere nowadays, but you made it so that the background isn't completely faded. Thus, you can make out some details while the font still maintains focus.

I hate websites that have a huge blurred out background on their home page. It's usually a person like... representing their service or whatever, but you can't make anything out and have to ignore it as you try to find information.

@Concentricity: That's quite unfortunate but I expected as much. Some people just want what they perceive to be easy money.

Wow, that's some impressive lineage. In a way, you broke from it by incorporating something YOU wanted to be doing (at least, I presume illustrating is more your passion?) with law work. Kinda funny that you landed an attorney ontop of all that law history, though. XD

My apologies for the slow reply. I've been plotting for a D&D campaign I have coming up, and working on some writing projects. >.>

@Peony: From what little I played of it, it was quite challenging! I do agree that it being turn based does allow you to calm down and think about your choices, though. I can see where you like the world building too. I didn't get too far into it, but it seemed as if you could customize a LOT of stuff in the world.

A staple of the SaGa games was learning random new skills as you used old ones. Is that present in Legacy? Like if you use Slash, you may learn Double Slash, and then you may learn Spiral Cutter or something. SaGa didn't offer much unique world building as, instead, you were given control and narrative of certain characters. In the first, there were... 7 or 8 different characters with unique storylines and characters you could form a party with.

In the second, there were two main stories with two sets of characters, but the stories overlapped over a period of years, and eventually converged.

Oh god. I just ran down a hallway and approached a ladder, but what's called a brainsucker leapt at me from the corner I couldn't see (the corner invisible as you enter) and nearly one shot killed me with a grab attack in Bloodborne. It's pretty brutal. xD

@Peony: I actually gave Legend of Legacy a try because it's kind of a spiritual successor to the old SaGa Frontier games. I also have a huge thing for JRPGs. I unfortunately couldn't get into it because I like more of a narrative, but the music WAS really good.

Ah, your boyfriend is masochistic like me. Most excellent. I highly advise against playing any DS-like game because you might just lose your sanity.

@Peony: Hmm, I'm really at a loss as to what to offer you volt wise. I always feel like I'll unintentionally undercut or go overboard. LOL

But but your art is so cute. /thinks

@Concentricity: Ah, I see! That sounds like it could be very fulfilling work if you get clients that you actually like, or who you feel deserve help. Some clients I imagine are quite greedy?

Paralegal work is something I've always been interested in, and I may be combining some aspect of it with my pursuit of understanding human psychology. >.>

Thank you~
I've seen your avatar around and love the hat! I also prefer the simple aesthetic you got goin' on. ^^

Aww, your style is so charming. I really like your art. ^^

Welcome to the city, my friend. To my knowledge, Hangouts is pretty active, and you can find stuff going on in General sections. Right now, most of the activity is, like Peony mentioned, in the Events section since the first event started not long ago.

I hope you like it here. ^^

I can understand that. Nothing sucks quite like doing something you hate just for a paycheck! I'll have to let my grandma know that @Kaderin Triste: is a VIP. She'll get you the good stuff. No worries. LOL

@star2000shadow: That basket is really adorable. Did you make it? It's very good to know you're still alive. =D

@Concentricity: Looks that way. How was work? And if I may ask, what does your work entail?

Not extensive knowledge I'm afraid, but I do know of the series and watched the trilogy. I just haven't dug deep into its lore.

However, it sounds incredibly amusing to write a romance involving Sauron, of all figures, and I would love to give it a try if you could provide summarized information about him. ^^

Haha, I'm happy you're excited! <3

On a completely unrelated note, I like the Zed quote in your sig. As an ADC main, I can attest to its truth. The unseen blade IS the deadliest...
