i'm sure we all know at leas tone person that you can embody or represent with a simple design or an item. I know a lot of people who i associate certain objects with
be it due to related interests or a symbolic nature,these people are marked to me by a certain sigil of sorts
I have a few of my own, the darkheart being the biggest,also just hears, the evil eye, or
a green spade
so my question to you is,
A do you know any people you relate to simple objects or symbols
B do you yourself have something you symbolize yourself with?
and hurp derp I like attention, what symbols or objects do you relate to me?

B - for myself, symbol wise antique keys are <3, but another one that not everyone knows is chickadees. If I'm not representing myself with any kind of persona, those are the two images, one or the both combined, that pop to mind. I'm not sure if there is any strong reason for either. I'm in love with old keys, both for the aesthetic of them, and for everything a key can be. And chickadees, well, I always adored them as a kid, and a long time ago, one of my friends asked me what I would be if I were a bird. They popped instantly to mind, and she snuck me in a picture as a chickadee. It stuck ;p
C - that dark hearts symbol you use of course sticks out ;p I can't say I know you well enough to have anything outside of that, since thats what I see you use personally. However, sea slugs always make me think of you, since i know you like them, and they are an unusual animal to appreciate, which I think is cool.
I need to go to bed 8l but I like interesting journals!
For myself, birds are usually involved in some way. Lately I'm using a kakapo because, well, fat ground parrot is suitable.
Another aspect of my mind (or alt or whatever, I can't explain it easily) has a few I associate with her. A wheel of life, omega emblem and a serpent of some sort as well as wings, which has lead me to associating her with an Amphitere or Quetzalcoatl.
I wish I had something that was deeper than "It always comes to mind when I think of it/them", but that's just what it is :c
dammit, i knew of another winged serpent myth, but it eludes me atm X_X
Ooh it's okay, there's a few of them around! Though the feathery ones seem to be restricted to South America.
but I guess now that I think about it, I have a few. LEDs, particularly colorchanging ones. Tarot cards. But it's not really a symbolic representation of them, just something they had a lot.
As for me, the number eight. One day I'm gonna get this tattoo.. but I have to think about it more. Also orange peacock feathers :B
you? err.. um.. converse with me more I'm sure I'll think of something eventually V:
granted i don't think i have ever come across them in any form other than stuff in fantasy books
B: For me, I associate myself with White Siberian Tigers and Transformers. I do have a symbol I use for whenever I draw anything (which is regrettably not that often) as a signature, but that's it.
C: I ASSOCIATE YOU WITH MEGATRON WEARING A TOP HAT AND DANCING THE FLAMENCO. >:E
b) tribal eye design sometimes, other some other things. >.> vurry hard to keep track of myself
c) sometimes foxmask
I usually associate myself with stars or rabbits.
Other objects, I could identify symbolically with are; An empty cup, a Skeleton, a light bulb, a tie-dyed lab coat, or a Journal/textbook. All four of which, are just different connotations of the Microscope or Easel; The illumination of things, or the foundation of images.
This journal has been interesting.
