[text & action for Spade Pirates!]

*Selphie hasn't used this yet, and her writing is...rather girly, and that of someone who really isn't used to handwriting anything. But still, she's writing, and she's proud enough of herself for that fact. It's night, and rather dark outside, so Selphie has at least thought that it might not be nice to wake anyone with her voice*

 

On the sea...at night. It's so beautiful outside I can barely believe it! If you're awake right now, take yourself out on deck and have a good look at the view - it's magical, I promise!~

 

*For those in Selphie's crew, you might find the young woman huddled beneath a blanket at some corner of the deck. Try not to step on her*

True. Fortunately, they're not mutually inclusive, and the fact the first part is attached to the second strikes me as hopeful. Even in war, there is beauty to be found--if one should only look.


[ooc: I'm only on the first game and still have Noveria and Virmire left, so if you could minimise spoilers that would be wonderful. (I usually wouldn't mind, but Garrus-mun has Made A Public Decree that I'm not allowed near spoilers, and who am I to deny my mistress.)]

Well, I think this poem is awesome! And you're right, there really is a whole load more beauty in war than people think. Thanks for sharing this, Descry! :)

You're welcome. It was written by a Joyce Kilmer, apparently.

[Assuming Skulduggery hadn't given him the wrong name. The skeleton could recite poems from memory if he thought it would help someone get to sleep, but remembering the author? Not quite as dependable. (At least the former function had actually worked quite well--after Skulduggery had stopped reciting poems from after Descry's time and therefore obliging him to ask questions about them.)]

Oh - they're pretty good. I'd like to write a poem about this... It looks so nice! But I don't think I'd ever manage to put it into words!

[scryinghope]

Writing is difficult. I've scribed a lot of others' works, but I don't think I could write something of my own either.

text

[booyaka_boom]

Really? Have you tried before? I think you should. I bet you'd be awesome at it!

text

[scryinghope]

I haven't, unless you count keeping a journal of my own experiences, and that is more a matter of record than creativity.

text

[booyaka_boom]

I do that too! Well, it's a blog, ya know, on the internet :p

Maybe we should give writing poems a try! We can share them sometime!

text

[scryinghope]

A blog is a journal on the internet? I'm curious as to how that name came about.

I hold no responsibility for how terrible they are.

text

[booyaka_boom]

Uhm...because... it's kind of... bloggy?? I don't know! XD

Tee hee hee! Me neither! Could be dangerous!

text

[scryinghope]

Oh, yes, almost certainly dangerous. We'd better label them a health hazard. Make sure the readers have a healer close by.

text

[booyaka_boom]

Tee hee! I can heal, so I'll be ready for it, just in case!!

text

[scryinghope]

Can you indeed? I'll keep that in mind.

text

[booyaka_boom]

Uh huh! I sure can! Might be useful for an old guy like you, hmm?

text

[scryinghope]

That depends on whether it means I have to worry about dying of old age or not. :P

text

[booyaka_boom]

Not yet anyway! You're not that old, right?

;)

text

[scryinghope]

Let's just say I'm well preserved.

[booyaka_boom]

*For some reason, that really makes her laugh. The image in her head of a wrinkled old man has morphed into something more of a silver fox*

Hahaha! Really? Then I guess you're doing just fine!

text

[scryinghope]

Of course. I'm me. ;3

These guys should meet. I think it would be utter lolz.

[booyaka_boom]

*With text, he's missing out on her giggling*

And you're really getting the hang of those faces too!

^_^

yes. yes please.

[scryinghope]

[Just call him a stodgy technophobe.]

If I didn't know any better I should almost think you doubted me.

[brbvirmire]

That's fair. Whatever's going on, the stars still look the same.

[ooc: Can do! Thanks for letting me know. Also sorry this took so long, I've been really off my tagging game lately s-sob]

text

[scryinghope]

That depends on which hemisphere you're in, I imagine. But at least they'll be constant, relatively speaking.


[ooc: thanks, and no worries! I've been a bit off myself.]

text

[brbvirmire]

Yeah, you went just a bit too literal there.

text

[scryinghope]

I've been told I have a habit of doing that.
