He doesn't have problems with showing emotions, and he handles them rather well.

I've been wanting to learn more about Manu for a while now. I was just too spineless to ask for info. :P
Paranoid has become a Vertebrate!
And no need to be, I don't bite XD
And I'm intimidated by a lot people I feel are better than me, which is mostly everyone. XD
And I'm kinda like that too, that's why I rarely comment...I feel like I have nothing valuable to say, so I limit myself to quiet admiration :P...but it shouldn't be like thaaaaaat...
I had to push myself hard in the beginning to even comment on your art, and I'm really glad that I did. It still isn't easy to talk with people now, but it isn't nearly as hard as it used to be.
Even if you doubt yourself you really should try to talk more. I've missed out on too many things just because I was quiet...
And Buern is not really mine, I'd have to ask Ralph to do it haha...
...personally, I'm far less interested in my interpretations than yours and if you only liked to share, I'd love to see as much of the "background" as possible... if you're okay with the idea.
And yeah, I do feel ashamed of my English. Hope you didn't choke
One needs a hobby though. Or else he/she will go insane. That's how I justify all that time I wasted creating an useless piece of illusion (not that useless, perhaps, but you get the idea) for myself to go whenever I feel insecure or whatever.
If it doesn't bore you/make you facepalm, yes...I will be more than happy to share. You're my younger sis afterall and I'm not that scared to look like a fool in front of you :3
Your English is fine, you know that.
Give your "useless" piece of illusion a chance. I've seen too many wasted ideas so far. Furthermore, I doubt that there's some other way of writing stories/making art than letting it grow inside your mind and living its reality until it's done - and even then, why to close the doors shut when you can still use the world you once created to tell something new? Or just to make yourself feel better, because why not? People play RPGs or perform in theater, they sing to themselves or record albums, tell stories to their kids or they write it down for other people's children - for themselves or for others, it's still creating something. And I call it art, because I haven't seen a satisfying definition of the term yet and I'm allowing myself to define it my own way. It's all but solid reality, only evanescence sounds, words soaking in the silence of the stage, illusions of imaginary worlds and stories about people who never even lived - yeah, who needs it? Life would be so much simpler without them all. Would it not?
You know, sis, you're making an effort of sharing your fantasies with people. No one said it'd be easy. Nobody promised you that you wouldn't sound or look stupid sometimes. Translating something as personal as imagined realities into a piece of art, or literature, is an art itself, so.. it takes practice, I guess? Don't stop where you are. You have a lot to say. AND I WANNA HEAR THAT.
Yup, I'm teaching you about things you already know. Isn't it great? :B
Reminds me that I should be writing. :c
Yes. Yes, you should. NOW.
