"Roo": Raging and Unsatisfied
11 years ago
General
So... it's been a few months darlings... so you know what that means...
So the Queen is at her balcony again, waving to Her adoring legions.
What's this? Does She detect unrest among the masses? How could this be? What to do?
That whole "Let them eat cake" just isn't cutting it anymore. Time for plan B.
It would seem Her Royal Majesty 👑 has deigned to serenade us with song in her attempt at pacification.
Let's see if it sounds familiar, darlings.
Her little ditty goes something like this:
It won't be easy, you'll think it strange
When I try to explain how I feel
That I still need your love
After all that I've done
You won't believe me
All you will see is a girl you once knew
Although she's dressed up to the nines
At sixes and sevens with you
I had to let it happen, I had to change
Couldn't stay all my life down at heel
Looking out of the window
Staying out of the sun
So I chose freedom
Running around, trying everything new
But nothing impressed me at all
I never expected it to
Don't cry for me,Argentina FurAffinity
The truth is I never left you
All through my wild days, my mad existence
I kept my promise, don't keep your distance
And as for fortune, and as for fame
I never invited them in
Though it seemed to the world
They were all I desired
They are illusions
They are not the solutions they promised to be
The answer was here all the time
I love you and hope you love me
Don't cry for me,Argentina FurAffinity
The truth is I never left you
All through my wild days, my mad existence
I kept my promise, don't keep your distance
Have I said too much?
There's nothing more I can think of to say to you
But all you have to do
Is look at me to know that every word is true
Ok. Maybe it doesn't go quite like this, but maybe it SOUNDS like this, don't you agree?
Yes, I'm a horrible, pathetic person, hardly worthy of being a soldier in Her Majesty's service. You might say I'm a defector. But I'm still in awe of the Queen. Her of sleight of hand is comparable to the Great Wizard of Triangulation, President Bill Clinton himself.
Let's see... what did She say now? Let's review Her journal, shall we:
"So, two webcomics I religiously followed recently ended (I won't say which, because I have nothing nice to say about them). One of them peetered out and the artists gave up on it, and the other ended. . . horribly, and left me feeling completely unsatisfied and sort of. . . angry, honestly. . . that so much of the storyline had been left unanswered, with gaping holes in it, and no sense of closure.
I just wanted to let you all know, especially those of you who follow Red Lantern. . . I will NEVER do this to you. Red Lantern's slowed down a lot over the last year for personal reasons relating to happenings in our lives (which I'm sure most of you all know by now) but we're slowly picking back up, and I can personally promise that I am absolutely in it for the long haul. I've been let down by nearly every webcomic I've ever read, and I told myself when I was a teenager that if I ever had a devoted following, I'd never subject an audience to such a huge let-down. I am completely dedicated to that promise.
In the mean time, if you follow Red Lantern but have been let down by the pace of the updates, I'd like to remind you all, I write novels in the Red Lantern world, as well. I post them right here on FA, and the books are available over at Furplanet.
In any case, don't lose hope, and never fear that I'll abandon you all. I would never subject my followers to THAT sort of pain :P
Other, 'you killed my favorite character and I'm crying in my cereal while reading this' sort of pain. . . well. . . I make no promises. . . . " -👑
Well... She's no Eva Peron, But ya gotta give Her credit. Bringing up Her angst and bitter disappointment at two comics She had been following: One was never finished, the other ended in a way that left Her unsatisfied. An egregious crime against the sensibilities of the Queen. And a lovely way to deflect criticism from Her own RED LANTERN comic.
(Although there is no evidence of criticism on the Queen's sanitized user page, there must be unrest somewhere in the ranks, hence the need for Her to address the masses with a journal.)
That RED LANTERN is on the back burner appears to be the source of concern. Or perhaps that She kills off more beloved characters than "The Walking Dead". Anyway, She counters this unseen criticism by flaunting Her virtuous nature. Oh, She would NEVER desert you like others have. Would NEVER leave you in the lurch. Would NEVER do this to you. Oh how the Queen has suffered for you... ye of little faith. Whatever.
Ain't passing the blame to others great? Um.. yeah. Look, someone had to suffer for the sake of 👑's art. I was just hoping it would be 👑, not us.
So... did Her dulcet tones assuage the masses? You decide. Here's just one of the many, many comments replying to her journal:
"Yay! Don't abandon us oh masterful one! Where will I spend my moneys then!?
Something tells me behind all of the comics and stories, you're secretly gathering an army of furry followers. So, when the time is right and you want to take over the planet in a hostile way, you'll count on us to do the fighting.
You get no argument from me. Just give me porn and I give you another solider. Win - win." -conrock
I still vote for "Let them eat cake" (Or is it "Cry in your cereal"?)
Love, D-
