The "fourth" of the holiday pics ive done since 05' when being here. The first had Lee, Rin, Carmen and Mike. Second had a random fbb girl I named Kisaki. I returned to form in 07 with Vixen and Aoboshi...

AND.

This year, I bring back two old fan favorites...one wearing stuff for the occasion...and the other getting an updated look.

Jocasta...more known as Jo ( seen in these - http://blackkusanagi.deviantart.com.....lored-31406771 , http://blackkusanagi.deviantart.com.....J1-Jo-82355097 , and http://blackkusanagi.deviantart.com.....loser-37731421 . Theres others, but you can search for em yourself.)

And an old favorite of mine, who I felt needed an update, who in actuality, is probably one of the strongest mortal human people in the "blackverse", Rei (seen here - http://blackkusanagi.deviantart.com.....LORED-28598941 , http://blackkusanagi.deviantart.com.....ofile-34944883 and in some BU pages).

So the premise...and joke of this originates to before the pic takes place. Jo and Rei were at a shop together, and both decided they wanted to take gifts around. Jo simply challenged Rei to an armwrestling match, on the premise the loser had to carry the huge super heavy bag.

Rei not knowing of the fact that although Jo was roughly a little larger than she was, Jo's geneology and actual physical capablities woulda turned this show of strength into her favor, they did so. Rei's very strong physically for a human...but...Jo won. And that pic takes about 50 minutes later, and after going to 209 homes. Rei's not to happy...and Jo intends to run when this is over, cause Rei may be physically weaker, but she could hand Jo her ass no problem.

Anyways, I thank the new friends ive made over the year. Granted, 08 wasnt the best year ever. But I survived. I thank my friends who have stuck with me through the year. I thank any new people ive met, and any new watchers I have. I hope to hear a lot more from you, instead of one fav a day. I hope to get better in the upcoming year, and I hope that many of you will stick through and ride this with me.

So in saying, I cast off the chains of 08...and bring it on 09!

Happy holidays, and happy new year.
