Buzzard Farts

Journal Entry: Tue Nov 24, 2009, 3:23 PM
Did you know that the only bird capable of farting is a buzzard? Go figure.

Life Bargains
I've come up with an ingenious idea! I shall split the time of working on Chapters between home and school. During fifth period and lunch, I shall work on the Chapter that shall be appearing after the next (in this case, Chapter 4) while I work on the current Chapter at home (in this case, Chapter 3). I shall be able to update every Monday with this plan, I believe. :heart:
Also: The next Chapter shall be up on Monday. Harrup~

Roleplays
1)I'll be posting the pictures for the Dark Carnival so's I can show off the characters that I helped design. C: Yay. Also, ~Rouge-the-Shadowlvr is helping me by using Open Canvas and Photoshop to line them and color my sketches. Yay.
2) I started a roleplay with Hannah! :yay: I'm using the Devovo Platoon and she's using a Platoon and a group of assassins. What fuckery is this? We'll find out!

...
I just caught whiff of something nasty.

Drawing
I've been getting a few lessons from my friend, so I think I'll be posting more hyoomanz and humanoid beings. :heart: C: I'll post my most recent one as soon as I'm all finished. I'll print a copy of it and try to color it in, at least until I learn to ink...

NEWS
I'm getting mah hair cut tomorrow! :'D Not very much, but... I wanted to say something about it.

Plushies
I'll be posting a picture that has all of my Keroro Gunso plush toys in it, and I'll probably include by Giroro/Garuru keychain in the pic, as well as my Dororo keychain. Gah, I love those guys~ :heart:

Not much else to update on, I'm afraid~ Oh wait...

Creature Appreciation of the Week
I've been neglecting this. Let's see...

Creature of the Week: Haetae. In Chinese and Koren mythology, the Haetae is a legendary creature which resembles a lion, but is in fact a dog. It had the ability to eat fire, and was thus thought to be a water spirit. It is also believed to be a guardian against disaster and prejudice, and to protect against all forms of disruptive or violent change.

Go appreciate a Haetae today. :heart:


That's about it. Let's see some action people, because I have a Question of the Week for you.

Question: If you had to be any mythical creature, well-known or not, what would you be?

Come on people, imagination. Let's go.

Name: Sycophantism

Nickname(s): Syco, Phant

Age: 16

Gender: Androgynous

Occupation: Student, Writer

Ambitions: Author, Snowboarder, University Professor (English)

Enjoys: Writing, Roleplaying, Drawing, Gaming, Snowboarding, Roller Blading, Biking, Camping, Fishing

Dislikes: Stuff




A pleasure. You may call me Syco, Phant, or whatever ludicrous names you may or may not come up with! Correct, my name has a true definition and is thus a real word. You may look it up if you wish, or you may save yourself some time and simply scroll down for the detailed description so kindly provided by dictionary.com

As you can see, my gender is being left unknown. Male, female, does such a thing matter? Mentality is what matters here ladies and gentlemen, the mentality of the writer providing you with entertainment! And, in this case, it shall be me.

I will be providing a generous list of names and titles of television shows, animes, movies, books, games and cartoons that I accept in request, trade, gift or otherwise stated by the writer or reader. Any of the above listed conditions may be asked for or offered in many different conditions, ranging from one-shot to sequels. Other such conditions of my writing are quite... picky, once might say, though I prefer to consider them high standards I set for myself to become better at what I do and what I may do in the future!

Each Chapter of all fanfictions have a minimum of 10 pages, and each fiction will have a minimum of 10 Chapters. That totals in a minimum of 100 pages per fiction, which I believe to be a reasonable and challenging goal. Each Chapter will have an original title consistent with the Chapter's topic. Each Chapter will have two Author's Notes: one at the beginning, for warnings, recaps, explanations for absences or misunderstandings, as well as acknowledgements for critiques, reviews, comments and questions; and a second at the end of the Chapter, with a short summary (although I would advice against depending on these to get through the fiction), explanation of confusing areas in the Chapter, as well as possible contests and brain-teasers relevant with the Chapter's mysteries or cliff-hangers, to which there will be prizes for correct questions (which may be left in a review or send to me in a Personal Message). I will try to set a consistent schedule to update each fiction (example. every day, every week, every Monday, every month, etc.). More information on the contests, summaries, prizes, recaps and absences can be found in the next paragraphs, because I believe this one has gone on long enough.



Contests

Yes, you heard correctly. Contests.
In each of my fanfictions, there will be a minimum of one contest. A question or assignment will be posed to you and the other readers, and the first to make contact with the answer (either through a review or a personal message) will win the prize. Wait, what? Prizes? Oh my! Look below for more on that, but first...
For the assignments, there is a slightly different condition; instead of the "first-come first-serve" theory, this will be a contest of skills and wits. You will complete the assignment, whatever it may be and if you choose to participate, before the date that is listed for it to be due. Send me a link to whatever you decide to enter (either through a review or a personal message) and the best will be chosen by the judges, being me, myself and Pi-- my imaginary acquaintance that came to meet me in a certainly boring math class one day.

Prizes

Thar be prizes afoot, me maties!
Yes, prizes will be awarded for questions answered correctly or assignments done well. Prizes may vary from requests (one-shot or longer will be specified in the contest), gifts, trades or a fiction, drawing or other being sponsored in one or more of the Chapters of one of my fictions.

Summaries

For each Chapter, I will attempt a short, simple summary to add to the end of every one. Either for those to get a friend interested, or as a short re-cap of what you just read. Also included in summaries may be small confirmations of questionable areas of the fanfiction, but if something is afoot and it is not mentioned... either I made a mistake, it's an important part in the fiction later, or I'm just screwing with you.
Sleep in fear.

Absences

Despite popular belief, writers like myself and others have things happening in their real lives. Some things come up suddenly, and sometimes things don't go according to plan. In such circumstances, I will either provide an explanation in place of a Chapter, and when I return I shall replace the absence-letter with the proper Chapter. In other cases, I may be unable to leave an apology note in time. In such cases, I shall apologize whence I return, and attempt to make it up to you all by either giving you an extra Chapter or two, or just do my best to make the next Chapters worth the wait!



Accepted Material

Anime: Keroro Gunso, FullMetal Alchemist

Cartoons: Transformers Animated, Invader Zim, South Park

Games: Team Fortress 2, Pokemon

Movies: Transformers, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

In progress. Each category will have a minimum of 2 choices, as soon as I get settled in.



In Progress

Team Fortress 2: "Torn Apart"; Unexpected twists and turns pitch one familiar man into dire circumstances, where decisions must be made that may destroy the trust of his teammates, and his reputation, forever. Estimated Release Date: Unknown

Transformers Animated: "Like Christmas"; Four special clones find themselves on the dangerous end of a very high bounty, and one certain bounty hunter is determined to make the cash and learn some things about the All-Spark shards embedded inside of them. Estimated Release Date: Unknown

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen: "Life Bargains"; When a certain swindler is charged for his involvement with the Decepticons, he escapes the evident offlining looming above his head and crash-lands on Earth. Unbeknownst to him, the best bounty hunter in the galaxy is hot on his trail... Estimated Release Date: Unknown

Transformers Animated: Untitled; When a certain human girl shows undeniable potential to the Decepticon leader, as well as uncanny relations with his certain multi-personality wielding underling, the Autobots have no idea what they're in store for... Estimated Release Date: Unknown



There you have it, ladies and gentlemen. I have many ideas swirling around in my mind, but some have yet to be worked out to be officially written down. Starting September 1st, I have taken a new approach to my writing skills, which may inevitably result in a slower transition from one fanfiction to another, but will indefinitely lead to faster updates when the fanfiction's first Chapter is finally put up.

Please enjoy your stay, and try not to get lost.

-Sycophantism.




Syc-o-phant (Sik-uh-fant)

"a self-seeking, servile flatterer; fawning parasite.


Edit

Aha, forgot to mention. Random oneshots will also be included in my writing conditions, although when and where I shall strike shall remain a complete mystery…
