Darkfic: it's good for the soul. Or, you know, not.

My first stab at writing Tom. It seems this was a month for exploration. In this month I've tried a new poetry style, a new writing style, and I've taken a stab at two charaters I've never written before. I'm a little proud of it all :)

Very dark.
I loved the end, I really felt how twisted up inside he is.

“You haven’t seen the best of it,” He says, “Just wait.”
- there is something about this line. So creepy, so true. *shivers*

I have an affinity for darkfic. Especially when dealing with naturally dark characters.

YES. That's what I was going for. We know how he turns out and the damage he does. I'm so glad that it showed through.

Thank you for the lovely feedback.

I'm glad! Well, my piece grew from this line: "He paints his face white to avoid looking at the darkness within." Which popped into my head while I was leaving the review for your piece. And that wouldn't bore me at all- I love hearing what people have to say.

Thank you :)

Goo. That was good. Very creepy as everyone else has said, but good. The imagery was my favourite part. Lines like It was a lipsticked mouth begging for a kiss. that really caught me. Wonderful work.

Andddd, I hate to bother you about this again, but people are continuously asking for Pansy over at Early Thaw and I just wanted to know if you're still interested in playing her? The rpg started early, so it has been running for about a week now. We have almost 30 characters. It's great and I'd love for you to play Pansy, I just need to know when/if you can get an application in. Thanks hun!

Thank you. And that's my favorite line. I have a special place in my heart for imagery. I love reading it as much as I like writing it.

I'm really sorry. I took the time to fill out the application but then my computer erased it and I haven't had time since then. Go ahead and give the character away because I don't know when I'll be able to fill it out again.

Ee, thank you so much darling! ♥

They’re too wild too mesmerizing ... And she was his crucifix.

My favourite lines, along with the little bombs - that seemed so appropriate. So subtly chilling and just.. yum. Poor Tom, what a pretty little nutter he is. Great writing, as usual.

Yeah, he's definitely a nutter. Then again...that's why I'm drawn to him.

Thank you for the wonderful feedback.
