[HEADING TOWARD THE OUTSKIRTS OF CAMP TODAY: a nun. With a suitcase.]

— stupid unwieldy thing —

I am thinking about trimming the flock.

THAT TOOK ME LIKE TEN MINUTES I AM IMPRESSED WITH MYSELF

TINY NOTICE just to say that Esther's threads are, once again, royally borked. But bork will nevermore occur!

For her set is finished.




That only took half a year. :B

Completely new iconset, part one! EVENTUALLY I will colour these (though I quite like the black and whites) but it seemed like the only sensible way to actually get myself going on doing them was to delete and replace ♥ am not salvaging keywords, so old threads are now gajunkajunked.

Completely new iconset part two will come later over on Ganymede's journal :|b

♥

So a while back I said I would change all my pink and overlayed icons to blue icons. This ... never happened. I just added some more icons to mismatch my already mismatched icons even more. This has created a rather sad icon car-crash which I am finally finally fixing.

so!! ALL OF THOSE ARE (slowly) BECOMING:



I AM DETERMINED TO DO THIS THIS TIME so hopefully this is the final time I will have to say on this account: threads will look hokey for a while as I recolour and delete, and I'll be culling quite a few crops from the herd to make way for new ones. So some threads will look really weird.

(sob!!1 kiyoart my nemesis!)

I love a good bandwagon. Anything Goes Meme for The Doctor, Setsuna F. Seieieieiei, Esther Blanchett, Natsume Takashi and Veronica Mars. You know what the list of everything is because a few other people have posted it. Relationship thingies or hot or not thingies or drabbles or jumping things or whateverrr. I also offer a "describe our relationship with a someecard or cat macro" option.

Leave your comments and I will answer these things tomorrow when I wake up ♥

HELLO CFUD. I need your opinion on a small matter.

SO Trinity Blood is an ongoing canon with a developing art style. In other words, what was once this became this and eventually ended up here. So Esther's art changes a lot in the duration of the series! And I don't have any icons from the recent arc about right now, so I figured I'd go about getting some.

Yet! Despite the art style morphing, there's no reason why not to keep the others, since alexander made them and they're very pretty and even worse threads will break if I don't. Problem being that AJ's icon style and mine do not exactly meshhh. Also, originally my icon backgrounds were teal but I couldn't cope with having pink icons and then teal ones. I'd find it emotionally upsetting. :( ... but I really like the teal! SO.

SO MY QUESTION IS: PICK ONE

a) Make these. I like blue.
b) Make these. IF YOU DON'T MATCH IT WILL BE SAD.
c) MAYBE YOU SHOULD MIX BLUE AND PINK IN SOME BIZARRE COLOUR HYBRID AND SPLASH IT ACROSS ALL THE ICONS AND THEN IT WOULD BE LIKE BLUEPINK
d) BE LAZY AND FORGET THE IDEA (possible regardless of votes)
e) ARE YOU COLOURBLIND MAKE THEM THIS COLOUR

idek i'm too lazy to make a real poll :( help me, obi-wan kecfud, you're my only hope.

nyuk nyuk chuck.

Name: Sister Esther Blanchett
Hair: Cut long at the front, shortish at the back; red.
Eyes: Dark blue.

Medical Info: Healthy, normal human girl.

Physical traits: Short. Very short, slender. Pretty!

What's Okay To Mention Around Him/Her: Mostly anything! If you tell her you're some sort of biblical creature, ie angels or demons, she'll be a bit confused, as she is a nun. Otherwise, it should be alright. Telling her she is descended from royalty is a no-no for now, please.

Abilities: Ability to be forthright, challenging, slight comedic violence ability. Nothing special. Jesus power.

Notes for the Psychics: ... I'll come back to this, god this is lazyyyy.

Can I shapeshift/bodyswap/spit at/step on/etc?: If you want to :(

Hugging/Kissing/Other non-violent physical contact: This is fine!

Maim/Murder/Death: Now, normally, this would not be a challenge. However, have you met Abel Nightroad? Also, Dietrich might be generally displeased about you playing with his toys :(

Cooking: ... Somewhat!

Character: Esther Blanchett
Series: Trinity Blood
Character Age: 18
Canon: Trinity Blood can be described as what happens when you head into a dystopic future, take a well known religion base such as the Vatican, and just go ahead and introduce them to vampires. It can also be described as what happens when the unstoppable force of our hero Abel Nightroad's emo meets the unmovable object of our heroine Esther Blanchett's forthright nature. Trinity Blood also boasts fascinating political intrigue, interesting characters and the occasional intestine leaking out of someone's side.

The aforementioned Sister Esther Blanchett is one of the forefront characters of the story; a young nun from Istavan who begins to travel with Abel Nightroad after he aided her in overthrowing the vampiric despot in her town. As the story progresses, we see Esther change from a rather naive, argumentative young girl to a full-fledged operative of the Vatican who is intended for even greater things. As the plot thickens and people she knew and trusted begin to turn against her, Esther stands true to what she believes in, even through the manipulation of others. And she's definitely not afraid to speak her mind, at that. Although she's prone to a bad temper sometimes, and she doesn't always understand the greater workings of what's going on around her, Esther makes an effort to do her very best in everything she does.

Sample Post:

Excuse me! May I have your attention, please? I have a message from Elizabeth Sayre that should be relevant to the interests of everyone in this camp. My name is Sister Esther Blanchett, and I've come direct from the Vatican to help promote order in this troubled place. Ms Sayre asks you, both the young and the old of this encampment, to take a good look at yourselves and your behaviour; to understand that your captor has brought you here for a purpose - she asks that you exercise patience, tolerance, and simply ... she's ... just expecting you to wait here? In this place that is full of zombies, angry gorillas, rude toucans, trees that try to trip you up! And that's just what I met when I was coming here! I ... I don't think I can give this message anymore. But I have a different one! Listen to me, all of you, and I can help you escape this place. It won't take long! Just ... a few easy steps!

Step one! Instead of learning to understand your captor, learn to understand each other. I can already tell just from seeing the people here that you are from hundreds of different places. Everyone's a different shape, a different size, even a different species. Once, I was afraid of people of a species different to mine; I was prejudiced, but that was because I didn't understand. I met people that taught me differently, and ever since then I try to understand every single person I meet - no matter who they are. And, if you can do this, you can move forward and work as a team! It doesn't matter if one of your friends is a vampire, or a werewolf, or has sixteen tentacles, or even if they're a fairy-- oh, that's normal here? That's fine, then. If they want to be your friend, then isn't that the thing that's important? If you, the people of this camp, can do this, then you can move onto:

Step two! Pool your resources. From what I can see, there are a lot of things here that would help you escape - people here can do so many strange, different things! You could even find a code to communicate with each other! Or maybe you could use something you already have. I was told of the strange "LOLspeak", where things are spelled so incorrectly they are nearly incomprehensible and placed on pictures of cats so they cannot be tracked. You could make plans, hide your secrets from your jailer. I'm sure there are lots of clever people here. If you worked together, then there has to be a way, there has to be!

Now, step three! I think working with your environment would be a good idea, don't you? The creatures here, the zombies, the gorillas, surely they don't want to stay here forever either. And I heard in this very lake there's a prisoner - a monster called Marcy who is miserable because she isn't allowed a pet! I was told "she wants pussy", so if you were to find her a cat perhaps she would help you to escape-- oh. It's ... not a pet that she wants? ... Well, I've never heard that term before. ... Alright, with that in mind maybe we should forget step three. I'm sure you'll think of something later that will help. And maybe I shouldn't have decided to make a speech at the lake...But! All the same! If you can find the strength to work as a team, surely step four will be to all profit together. Now I've got to go, but I'll think of you all every day, and I'll truly pray for your escape. -- what do you mean, I'm stuck here?! I can't be! I was invited to -- oh. Oh.

... Well. Let's work hard, everyone!
