A journal entry on Red.
And here I had thought, "Well that's done. Time to lay low for a while."
The Radley series is far from over, it just hasn't picked up again. Marcos has done some artwork of it. Wow, that's adorable+. I drew some and while mine is more sly, Marcos's is more emotive. Radley is a much more distinctive name then 'Red' for a title, even though she's usually called Red in the narration. I don't write oftain, so I have no stories planned. I don't have much time to draw, and I prefer to draw what I've been inspired to. The whole thing spiraled out from Marcos's prompting. (and really, more people should be thanking the guy for his quality work.)
The first picture that kicked this off, drawn by Marcos.

The first pic, and yes, there's sex in it, horndogs. Your favrite flavor.
I find I like the Red setup. She's not a sleeze, and she gets carried away at times, she fears she might be a perv, and planning means her habits haven't gotten out.
Long planning. Thinking over every little scenario. Bad ones and good ones and perhaps no-one would mind if she went and took a bath to cool down.
Be it helping out behind the scenes in breeding season, or sneaking out in the middle of the night to molest the forest animals, or just hanging around in the barn- from a rope someone tied to her work dress.
Listen, if you will to the tale of a girl no-one wants to admit to...
Here we meet Radley, a girl who goes by the name of Red.
A farm girl in an unlabled countery, in an unnoticed farm in a uneventfull time.
There are no celular phones, no mp3 players, perhaps not even television.
In between her uneventfull farm tasks Red has developed an unusual habit. Her source of entertainment, even her source of pleasure, is found not in the arms of the local boys- but in the embrace of the animals on her farm. A less troublesome sort of animal, some would claim. While we don't know the events of Red's life in the years ahead of her or behind her, it opens all sorts of possibilities.
Red, as she is written, has a few insecurities. Flaws to make her more human.
You see, Red has a lot of free time. Schooling is short and to the point. Farm chores take a few hours. Most of the heavy stuff is done by people with the proper equipment. ie, wagons, etc. She knows what her exact age is, but I like to smudge the precise when.
She worries she might be too small or short. She thinks she has a boy's name- Radley. But since she's a redhead everyone calls her Red. Most of them assume that would be her real name.
She's sometimes bothered by her non-status of not being one of the 'clieque' girls. She may be barely passing the algebra part of math, but she could manage the farm's ledger in a non-spectacular way if she wanted.
She was told a few times that sex is bad, and she listened. Red likes sex anyway she just keeps it to herself.
She had the freedom to do something about it. And the animals to do it with. It's no 'big secret' but Red doesn't want word to get around! p.s.-"Dog sex is _so_ passe'!" She doesn't even have a dog.
So she's more open to 'certain things' with 'certain girls since they can keep a secret.'
So she strikes deeper and deeper into the local forest, disturbs more animals then a thunderstorm, (not all of them 'normal' animals either), all to an undecided end....
