Rick's Entry for May 2012

(( 1pt for barely on time, 1 pt for plot, 1pt for mentioning what people are doing, 1pt for hot vixen... I mean, subplot. ))

Vixen engineering, huh? I do have a lot to say about that Chris, but I think I will keep it to myself. But I'm getting ahead of myself here, as always. I can't have a regular message starting with the beginning and ending with the end, can I? It would be too... how to say... normal. I don't do normal. Amelia is a proof of that. (Rimshot)

Heh, anyway, enough of those punny jokes. You probably all want to hear about world saving and such. I can't say I've done a lot of that this month, which I must apologize for. Between work, spending time with Amelia, the social frictions between the local factions and the inevitable urges to transform, I can't say I've spent a lot of time searching for the Truth, whatever it might be. Don't take this as a total rejection of our quest, though. I did have time to read your messages and to think about them, to ponder some solutions, some answers that would fill the Void left by our lack of knowledge. Oops, I did it again. Sorry.

As you can see, I'm in a pretty good mood. I'm sure you know a good half of why, so I will focus on the other half you may not be aware of. First, as Christian said, thanks for being so accepting of my relationship with Amy! I need to give you a big hug when I see you! ...or... maybe polite, timid one. Vixens can be territorial. They are bitches after all. Heh, that one was mean, sorry Amelia, even if you don't read this. I need to make it up later. In more than one way.

...Oops?

In a change of topic, I'm also glad that everyone is well... I think. I'm not really sure about Christian and Austin. I think you guys are competing to see who will come up with the most insane statement regarding life, Universe and everything. I think Chris is ahead on this, but your efforts aren't going unnoticed, Austin. Personally, I don't really get any of that. This mage thing sounds like a sect of people flying up there with the most ridiculous ideas of our time. I'm glad to be down to Earth with Darrel, kind of keep some kind of balance. And Lizzie is somewhere in the middle. Not quite sane, not quite insane either. I blame her fish. Tasty insane thing. Mmm.... fish... I would so dig my claws into her, savour her delicious, taunting flesh...

Eeep, bad kitty! I think I will go eat some sea food after this to calm down the urges to go out there hunting little mermaids. Ooooopsie. ^.^ I'm not quite done emptying my bag' O puns, it seems. Maybe I should keep a count. That would be something productive. Oh, speaking of productivity, I may not have been tortured like Darrel, fighting Cheiron like Lizzie, hiding behind a Vow like Christian or doing whatever it is Austin is doing (we really need to see each other, bro), but I did do some stuff! I can't believe I didn't talk about it yet. Seems like I have the attention span of a kitten. Meow! Rawr!

I've thought about this 'hole in the tapestry' thing. I don't know much about esoteric weaving. but I've been thinking... what if instead of looking for a way for closing that hole between our world and the Abyss, why don't we look for the reason there was a hole in the first place? The way I see it, the hole is like a program crash. We know it's there, it blew up in our face, but just restarting the program isn't going to prevent the crash from happening again. We must look into the source, find the reason that causes that crash to happen and fix that. I think that's why Mages alone can't do it. They have the ability to keep the program in check and to modify it to some degree, but they don't have a global understanding of all of its functions. All of us, this group, we each represent a part of the world. Christian is the magic, Lizzie is the spirit of the deceased, Darrel is a manifestation of the living spirits, I am a representative of the animal kingdom, Megan is our link to Arcadia and Austin is a soul at the crossing of worlds. Together, we make parts of this grand programs and I think each of us will bring a part in this bug fix we are looking for. It's no coincidence that we were brought together since early age, that we all changed into different species... even Rami's death may be part of this. Maybe I'm just seeing things, but I'm convinced whatever forces of Good there is in this world of Darkness, they all planned this to some extend. We just need to keep looking in our respective species backyard for the piece each of us is supposed to find. Or something. Jst my two cents.

Sooo.... yup, I'm done rambling. FISH TIME WITH AMELIA!
