After many many unsuccessful attempts, I had finally survived long enough to reach Mom (thanks mainly to the ability to fly, which I did not have on previous playthroughs).  I had cleared out the dungeon and was either picking between two tarot cards or a tarot card and a ??? pill.  Either way, I chose to just use up the pill and take the card with me when I got teleported to the gag "I am Error" room.  Having no way out, but the trapdoor, I dove in and found myself in the Womb.  In other words, I had skipped Mom altogether.  I got through that dungeon just fine (again thanks mainly to the ability to fly) and beat Mom's Heart no problem.  So I beat Mom's Heart before I beat Mom...  Feels weird...

These are some characters to a story I have been writing and hoping to turn into a comic someday.  Done for the sake of character fleshing.  Hope it's not too long.

Characters
--------------------
Ray North
Shinji Fujito
Finbar Davies
Eve Wei
Sylvester Moore
Kyrie Tanner
------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: How old are you?
Finbar:  Sly and I are 17.
Kyrie:  25.  I'm their school nurse.
Ray:  Well Shinji, Eve, and me are all 15.
Shinji:  Actually I'm 16.  Six months older than you, remember?  Which means, I can finally get my license!
Sylvester:  Assuming you pass.
Finbar:  Now now, Sly, not everyone fails five times like you did.
Sylvester:  HEY!
Others:  *laugh*

Q: What's your height?
Eve:  Five feet exactly.
Ray:  Pahahaha!  You're short!
Shinji:  Says the midget!
Ray:  Shut up!  I'm 5'4"!  I'm not a midget!  You're just a freak!
Shinji:  I'm only 6 feet.
Ray:  That's still pretty dang tall...
Finbar:  You are the second tallest here.
Shinji:  Second tallest?
Sylvester:  *leans on Shinji's head*  Hey, you haven't forgotten about me, have you?
Shinji:  Oh riiiiight.  Mr. Basketball Star.
Sylvester:  But you're still taller than Ray, aren't you Finny?  You're 5'6", right?  Even Ms. Tanner is taller than Ray.
Eve:  She wears high heels.
Sylvester:  Oh right.
Kyrie:  If you wish to know my height, I am 5'3".
Ray:  Hah!  I am not the second shortest person here!

Q: Are you a virgin?
Eve:  *prompt and unabashed*  Yes.
Ray/Shinji:  ...  Yes...
Finbar:  *also unabashed*  Yes.
Ray/Shinji:  ...Really?
Finbar:  Is it that surprising?
Ray:  Well, I mean, you're the musician and all.
Finbar:  The three of us are a band.  That plays very bad music.
Eve:  Well at least you are realistic.
Shinji:  Right.  We play bad music.  Because Ray and I barely know how to play.
Ray:  You'd have the girls lining up around the block if you played the piano at school.
Shinji:  Well what about you, Sly?  I mean you change girlfriends almost every other week.
Sylvester:  Well of course I'm not a virgin.  These relationships are never serious ones.
Eve:  ...  Isn't that all the more reason not to engage in intercourse?
Sylvester:  "Not serious" as in those girls and I are just "friends with benefits".
Shinji:  Well, what about you, Ms. Tanner?
Kyrie:  I don't believe that is any of your business.
All:  ...
Ray:  Taking bets!
Kyrie:  Hey!
Eve:  Raymond, don't be rude.

Q: Who's your mate/spouse?
Kyrie:  *to the interviewer*  You're not helping!
Ray:  So did you do it with the geometry teacher?  You did, didn't you?
Kyrie:  And whatever gave you that idea, Raymond?
Ray:  Well, some students have seen him visit you at lunch and get all snugly.
Kyrie:  *blushing red*  Damn it, Eric!  No matter how many times I tell him to have more professionalism!
Boys:  HAHAHAHA!
Eve:  I am sorry to tell you this, Ms. Tanner, but everyone in school knows.  Consorting with co-workers is against the rules, but no one really enforces it.

Q: Do you have any kids?
Kyrie:  *still red*  NO!
Boys:  *still laughing*

Q: What's your favorite food?
Kyrie:  Gnocchi.
Eve:  Lotus root chips.
Ray:  What are those?
Eve:  Thinly sliced lotus roots, seasoned then baked.  It's quite good.
Shinji:  Oh yeah, I think I saw you eating them before.  I think you're getting cheated though.  I mean they cut flower shaped holes in them.
Eve:  Lotus roots are naturally like that.
Shinji:  Really?
Eve:  You didn't know that?
Shinji:  No.  Never saw a lotus root before.  My favorite food seems so boring in comparison.
Sylvester:  And what would that be?
Shinji:  Potato chips.
Ray:  I'm getting hungry...  I hope no one's eaten the last of the cookies before I get home.
Finbar:  I want an ice cream sandwich now.
Sylvester:  That settles it.  I'm getting a cheeseburger after this.

Q: What's your favorite ice cream flavor?
Finbar:  Aaaahh!  Stop talking about ice cream!

Q: Have you ever killed anyone?
All:  ...
Sylvester:  What kind of sick freak are you?
Eve:  We're high schoolers.
Ray:  Well, except Ms. Tanner.  You haven't killed anyone as a result of malpractice or anything, right?
Kyrie:  *scratches back of neck*  Not from malpractice.

Q: Do you hate anyone?
All:  ...
Eve:  Hate is too strong a word.  "Strongly disagree with" would be more accurate.  We cannot agree, but we do have a general respect for each other.
Finbar:  So, then rivals?
Eve:  That is not accurate either.  I suppose adversary is closest.
Ray:  As for me, I don't have anyone I hate.
Shinji:  Yeah.  Not now that that guy is finally where he belongs.
Ray:  Shinji!
Shinji:  Sorry!
Finbar:  What is this about?
Eve:  ?
Ray:  *sigh*  I'll explain it to you guys one day.
Finbar:  But...
Sylvester:  If Ray doesn't wanna share, that's his business.  I know I've had my fair share of grudges.
Kyrie:  That painful, huh?

Q: Have any secrets?
Ray:  Ms. Tanner is dating the geometry teacher!
Kyrie:  *red again*
Eve:  Aside from that...  We do have a secret, but now is not the correct time to divulge it.

Q: Do you love anyone?
Ray:  :D
Kyrie:  Ray, no.
Ray/Shinji:  :D
Kyrie:  Look, you won't be telling them anything new, so just stop!
Ray/Shinji:  :D
Eve:  We are high schoolers.  We have our fair share of crushes.  Raymond, for example, prefers girls with ample bosoms.
Ray:  That's not secret!  Unlike yours, Eve.
Eve:  Ray...
Ray:  :D  I'm going to tell them!
Eve:  ...  *sigh*  Fine.  Whatever.  I see I can't stop you, so I refuse to care anymore.
Ray:  ...Awwww but that takes all the fun out of it.

Q: What is your job?
Kyrie:  I mentioned I was their school nurse, didn't I?
Finbar:  I work part-time in my uncle's music supply store after school.  He sells me lots of old sound equipment and instruments for cheap.
Sylvester:  I should probably take up a part-time job too, except I need that basketball scholarship.
Ray:  :D  And the rest of us are legally too young to be employed!
Shinji:  Yeah.  If only our parents gave us bigger allowances...
Ray:  ...Crap.
Eve:  You guys get allowances?
Ray:  You don't?
Eve:  No.
Shinji:  I knew your 'rents were super harsh but... really?
Eve:  *shakes head*
Ray/Shinji:  Poor thing.  *hug*
Eve:  ...Is there a reason why you two are intruding upon my personal space?

Q: Do you play any instruments?
Ray:  :D  Nope!
Shinji:  Dude, you play guitar in our band.
Ray:  :D  Badly.
Shinji:  ...  Actually, yeah, why are we in a band again, if we suck?  I mean I'm on drums, but I have a bad sense of rhythm.
Finbar:  Because we've been friends a long time and because I know you two would never have delusions of making it big with just this.  Also, you guys actually come up with interesting ideas and sounds now and then.
Sylvester:  Out of curiosity, what instruments CAN you play?
Finbar:  Piano, violin, guitar, and bass.
Sylvester:  ...That's it?  I thought the list would be longer than that.
Finbar:  Oh I'm sure I can learn other members of the string family if I applied myself.
Eve:  My violin teacher does speak very highly of your skill.
Finbar:  *embarrassed smile*  She gives me too much credit.
Sylvester:  It's still better than me.  I can only play the kazoo.
Kyrie:  When I was little, I knew how to whistle with a blade of grass.  I've forgotten though.

Q: Where do you think you'll be in ten years?
Finbar:  Making music for films and television, hopefully.
Sylvester:  What?  Not as a celebrity singer?
Finbar:  Celebrity life sounds too depressing and short.
Sylvester:  Still sounds better than what lies ahead for me.  What I'd like is to be a basketball star.  But the sad reality is I'd probably be doing some blue collar job somewhere...
Finbar:  ...  What about you guys?
Ray:  Dunno.  I get straight C's in everything...  I prefer not thinking about it.
Finbar:  This has become depressing.
Shinji:  I haven't decided yet either, but at least I manage A's and B's.  Eve?
Eve:  Law school.
Shinji:  ...  Your mom and dad pressuring you to?
Eve:  Unfortunately.
Shinji:  It's your life.  You shouldn't have to be a lawyer unless you really want to.
Kyrie:  This really is a depressing topic...

Q: Favorite animal?
Ray:  Velociraptors!  They are badass!
Eve:  That would be difficult when you're a reptile covered in feathers.
Ray:  What?
Eve:  ...You... were not aware?  I'm pretty sure the scientific community had discovered this fact years ago.
Ray:  ...  D:  My glorious childhood memories have been ruined!
Kyrie:  *pat pat*  There's always the modern day raptors like hawks and eagles.
Shinji:  As for me, I like rattlesnakes!
Sylvester:  I always liked komodo dragons.
Finbar:  Why does everyone like reptiles?
Sylvester:  All right.  What's your favorite animal then?
Finbar:  Wolf.  I actually always wanted a husky/wolf hybrid for a pet.
Sylvester:  Yeah, wolves are pretty cool.  What about you, Eve?
Eve:  Gulper eel.
Ray:  ...What's that?
Eve:  An eel with a mouth enormous in proportion to its body.  It lives in the deep ocean and uses its bioluminescent tail to attract prey, which it swallows whole.  If you ever saw a picture, you would likely find it comical.

Q: Boy or girl?
Ray:  Boy.
Shinji:  Boy.
Finbar:  Boy.
Sylvester:  Boy.
Eve:  Girl.
Kyrie:  Girl.
Ray:  ...Eve, except for Ms. Tanner, you're the only girl here.
Eve:  I know.  I don't have any friends other than you people.
Ray/Shinji:  *hug*
Eve:  Will you stop that?

Q: What do you do to relax?
Ray:  Relax?
Shinji:  What is this relax you speak of?
Ray:  For such a word does not exist in Eve's vocabulary!
Eve:  *exasperated sigh*
Finbar:  I find playing music to be very soothing.  And cathartic when I'm upset.
Sylvester:  I play basketball.
Kyrie:  I like a good book.
Ray:  Shinji and me play video games.
Shinji:  Ray cheats though.
Ray:  Do not!

Q. What's your Favorite Color?
Ray:  I like green!  It looks cool!
Shinji:  Dark blue.
Finbar:  Muted blue.
Ray:  Ff.  You're so boring!
Sylvester:  I like red.  I dunno why.
Kyrie:  Lavender.  It's soothing.  I'm told I look good in green though.
Ray/Shinji:  :D  By who?
Kyrie:  -_-  By a friend from college!  For goodness sake!
Ray:  Well what about you, Eve?
Eve:  Gray.
All:  ...
Eve:  What?

Q. What's Your Favorite Movie or type of movie?
Kyrie:  I love a good mystery.  I always feel proud of myself when I've correctly guessed the culprit and how they did it.
Ray:  I'm more into action movies!
Shinji:  With kung-fu!
Ray:  And explosions!
Finbar:  I like suspenseful thrillers.
Sylvester:  Ugh!  I hate those.  Why go to a movie just to feel stressed for 2 hours?  I prefer comedies.
Eve:  I like mysteries, but I don't typically watch those.
Ray:  What do you watch?
Eve:  Documentaries.
Boys:  ...
Eve:  What?
Ray:  Do your parents dictate everything you enjoy?
Eve:  No.  I genuinely like documentaries.  Watched a fascinating one the other day about medieval surgical procedures.
Boys:  ...
Eve:  ...Now what?

Q. Boxers or Briefs?
Ray:  I wear--
Eve:  I don't want to hear it.
Sylvester:  But--
Eve:  I don't want to hear about what you boys wear under your pants!  Next question!

Q. Do you have a nickname?
Ray:  ...Isn't it obvious?  Ray.
Finbar:  Most people call me Fin, but Ray and Shinji like calling me Finny.
Sylvester:  Sly.
Shinji:  Out of curiosity, what is your real name?
Sylvester:  I'm not telling you.

Q. What's a commonly asked question you get, and whats the answer?
Sylvester:  ..."What's your real name?"
Ray/Shinji:  *wait in anticipation*
Sylvester:  ...I already told you my answer.
Finbar:  "How many instruments do you know how to play?"  Four right now.
Ray:  "Why don't you apply yourself more, Raymond North?"  :B  I'll get around to it when I feel like it!
Shinji:  "Why don't you ever take off your hat?"
Sylvester:  Hey, yeah!  Why?
Shinji:  ...  *pulls the beanie down on his head even further*
Sylvester:  ...  You're not going bald, are you?
Shinji:  No!
Sylvester:  Bet you are!
Ray:  No, he's really not.
Finbar:  Though, Shinji, it's really nothing to be embarrassed about.
Shinji:  Yes it is!
Sylvester:  Now I'm really curious.
Kyrie:  If you find out, then you're obligated to tell him your real name.
Sylvester:  ...  Noted.  What about you, Ms. Tanner?
Kyrie:  "Ms. Tanner, I feel sick.  Can you write me a note to excuse me from class?"  90% of the time, there's nothing actually wrong with them.  The other 10%, I perform necessary medical treatment and call their parents if it's serious enough.
Eve:  Have you ever been wrong?
Kyrie:  Not yet.
Eve:  As for me, the question I get most is "How did you do on your test?"
Ray:  Your parents?
Eve:  Yes.
Shinji:  What happens if you don't get the highest score possible?
Eve: They tell me how very disappointed they are in me and are even stricter on my studying.  That hasn't happened since I was in third grade though.
All:  ...

Q. What do you think of these questions?
Kyrie:  Some of these were rather invasive...
Ray/Shinji:  :D
Kyrie:  ...  I'd tell you to act your age, except I remember boys acting similarly when I was in high school.
Ray/Shinji:  :D
Sylvester:  The questions weren't that bad.
Kyrie:  Yes, because you didn't have any secrets exposed.
Eve:  But it was no secret.  Everyone in school already knows.
Kyrie:  -_-
Finbar:  Sorry, Ms. Tanner.  I tried to be a positive influence on them.

...  Assuming that there are no serious problems during rendering of course...  Which there are sure to be...

MY THESIS PROJECT IS DONE!!  It's late BUT IT'S DONE!  BUT IT'S SO LATE THAT I'M PROBABLY GOING TO GET A B!  AND YOU MAY NOT THINK THAT'S BAD BUT IT IS TERRIBLE FOR ME!  (It's a matter of pride.  And the fact that the teacher was telling me for the past year and a half that he was confident I'd finish on time and here I am, one of the last to finish, does not help my morale much...)  But it's freaking done!  I'm not the type to use God's name in vain or to use expletives casually, but that's what happened these last few weeks.  (Admittedly, those expletives were not out of frustration, but accidental leaks into casual conversation...)  But ugh!  What a month!  I've spent the last 2-3 week literally living here in the animation lab.  Brought a blanket, toiletries, and everything.  And in my personal opinion, it sucks because the coloring and compositing was all done during those last 2-3 weeks, but at least it's done.

Unfortunately, USC copyright laws do not allow me to post more than 10% of it on the Internet...  Maybe I'll post the pencil test version someday...

See The Secret of Kells.  It is awesome.

Call me nitpicky, but everyone's been rattling off their FAVORITE game.  Not the BESTSELLING game.  "Best game" and "Bestselling game" are decidedly different.  Which game has rung up the most customers?  Probably something old.  Like Tetris.  Or Pong.  But then again, with piracy running rampant these days, "Bestselling game" is not necessarily the same as "Most Played game".

...Yeah I'm that bored...  Yeah I should really get to work...  The tedium of moving holds is getting to me...
