More from AshleyFableBlack
Well, I said most of what I'd been up to art-wise was either unreleasable, or pretty morbid and depressing, so here goes. We'll start with depressing, and I dunno, maybe I'll move it to scraps eventually, as it's still in pencil...
Yep, I'd had a pretty rough run of it that day, and I'd never felt so hurt and betrayed in as long as I could remember honestly. Someone as close to me as blood and breath had hurt me in a way I'd never have imagined coming from them... The astute observer might recognize mah buddies Welsh and HornedMane in there trying ta comfort me, although much smaller and less... well... humanoid.
A song came to mind from "Buffy The Musical: Once More With Feeling" while I was just crying, lovely singing in it by the by, and this image came pouring out of me. I'll share it with ya now...
Under Your Spell/Standing Reprise:
TARA:
I'm under your spell?
God how can this be?
Playing with my memory...
You know I've been through hell...
Willow don't you see?
There'll be nothing left of me.
You made me believe..
GILES:
Believe me I don't wanna go...
TARA/GILES:
And it'll grieve me 'cause I love you so. But we both know...
GILES:
Wish I could say...
the right words to lead you through this land.
Wish I could play...
The father, and take you by the hand.
TARA:
Wish I could trust
That it was just this once but I must do what I must.
I can't adjust
To this disgust.
We're done! and I just
TARA/GILES:
Wish I could stay....
Wish I could stay...
Wish I could stay.....
Wish I could... stay....
Original Lyrics: Joss Whedon
Performed Beautifully by Amber Benson(Tara) and Anthony Stuart Head(Giles)

Thanks hun. *hugs tight* I'm glad you like it, in a way. I'd imagine you, being as expressive as you are through the arts, would be able to relate particularly well... It was a very bad day actually. I'd like to furget that one, but you know what Captain Kirk said...
"I don't want to forget my pain. I need my pain. It's part of who I am, what makes me who I am." But well, I'm actually currently trying to resolve this issue....

Sorry if I sounded ethnocentrist. I certainly didn't mean it that way. I've just grown up with it being such an integrated part of my culture and... well, identity I guess. I mean, since the early seventies, there's been Star Trek on the air in one form or another stateside, so it's difficult to imaging things without it's cultural impact.
And yes, you do make me happy, hun. You've brightened up many a day with a missive or image.

Thank you, my prince. Your flattery is as wonderful as your spirit, you know... But I think it's probably just as heartfelt.
Honestly, even though things have been sort of patched up since then... well, I'll know more in a few minutes, but... I still haven't been able to play. Truth.

*smiles* Maybe.... I don't know... Music has always meant so much to me... But it's one of those intangible things, sorry to get all weird now, but it requires something besides just touching the instrument, knowing what to do to make the noises. There has to be a connection between the heart and the mind and the soul fur it to mean anything...
I guess since then, something's still broken in there. I dunno... But maybe, someday.
Something fur me, though? *eybrow lifts* You have my interest, love. ...

Thank you, Masa... You are sweet you know. *smiles* Oh dear...*hugs ya back, petting your hair* I's been glomped by a wulfie....
Sorry hun, but this is just the tip of the depressing iceberg when it comes to the work I've been on this past month or so... Nothing much light and jovial, like my usual self... But then again, I've gotten much more squared away of late, and things are turning back to where they should be.
Now if my scanner would just work....

Thanks hun... *stares at the starlight* Funny story...
My folks, they used to go out to eat together. I'll never know how my Mother tolerated my dad fur so many years... *smirks* But, they had this weird joke between them... She hated these little things, peppermints. e loved them of course, so everywhere they went to eat that had a bowl of them as complimentary after-dining affair, he'd snatch a whole handful of them and sneak them into her pocket...
"Bobby" she'd shout and smack his hand... *chuckles* I dunno. I guess they were just big kids in a way... Maybe we can all only hope fur such when we're that old...

Heh. Well, love is a really strong and unpredictable thing, you know. I guess it wasn't so hard to tolerate him if she actually cared for him. It could even bring out your father's more playful giddy side, which seems contrary to his usual self judging by some of what I've heard from you.
Funny.... even he admits she has to be a saint, as she put up with him, my brother and myself fur so many years... *snickers*....
He's an interesting one. I know I get two thngs from him fur certain, my wry sense of perverse humor, and my stubborn streak. The rest is from hir. *smirks*

That's true... At least that I wouldn't be here if they hadn't ... well...yeah...*ansy, changes topic hurriedly* Ugh...
But then again, depending upon religious bend, who knows what I'd be if I wasn't born? Maybe like Alita said "In my past life I was probably a toaster...." *chuckles, sadly*
That's very sweet of you to say hun. I really can't say how much I appreciate it. I'm in a bit of a bad way right now... And I'm grateful fur your kindness...

Feel free to ask hun. *sighs* I hope you don't hate what I'm about to post, but it's pretty accurate of how I'm doing ATM...
Look, I'm hip... I said "ATM" instead of "at the moment"... Well... I thought that was considered hip... *shrugs and kicks a pebble* Didn't wanna be one of the cool kids anyways... *pouts*

Well... *pffts a lock of hair outta hir face* As long as maybe you'll say it to me then. Sometimes I gotta be alerted to this stuff, y'know...
Oo- like that one time at Ryan's steakhouse where I didn't realize I was "overexposin' mah lunchables" when I was walking abouts... Fun there...

*giggles and squeezes the cutie* You always cheer me up Boots, you know that. I'm pretty okay at the moment though.
Well, I did just get a letter from my lawyer. It seems the Ex has gotten a court date fur the 23rd of this month, at 9AM. Yay! Looks like that was money well spent... *grumbles* ... oh well, no point in dwelling on it.... *tickles your sides*

Thank you, hun. I figured a lover like yourself would see them well. Even as sad as this image is to look at fur me, I like it myself. Maybe I'll work at inking it or coloring it sometime.
It was a very emotional day. I'm glad as hell I had Welsh and Mane there to fall into.

I remember this time. You were hurt pretty badly back then. I wonder if we could have maybe looked closer at things and seen where they were going to go from there. Maybe if we had, we might have saved you from what that little jerk did later. I can't help but think we should have been able to stop it before you got hurt so badly Ashe.
