Words
Eternity, such a heavy word;
Everlasting and untarnishing.
Sure as yesterday had come to pass;
But still uncertain if it will last.
Sincerity, such a lonely word.
Such commitment; whole-hearted devotion.
An intentional self-sacrifice;
A shedding of pretenses, of masks and lies.
Anxiety, the word of fear and of longingness;
Of the eternal wait between coming and going.
Never knowing, never fully certain;
Yet still holds on, faithful and trusting.
Distance, the word that seals and locks away.
It seals emotions and dampens hearts,
It shuts them tight, in fear of pain;
For who knows when, they'd meet again.
And then there's love, a comforting word.
That no distance can overcome, nor pain can destroy.
That which sweeps away anxiety, and drives away fear;
That of which can speak of eternity and remain sincere.
A word I vigilantly hold on to;
A word that describes what I have for you.

Overturn
A boat that rides the tranquil waves;
A lake that sings melancholic hymns.
Afar, a shore that signals beckoning hope;
With huts that dot it with lights, beautiful homes.
There's fish to be had and a fire to stoke;
Coals red hot, steaming noisy pots.
There's rice to feast on, a leaf to eat from,
And tiny stools to take the solemn meal.
The net had been cast, the catch was plenty;
There were to be, a feast for everybody.
But the winds blew strong, the gust was angry;
The fishing lamp was nowhere to be seen.
The night was black and the stars a-shining;
The lake breeze sweeps, cool and refreshing.
A peaceful sight, a silent retreat;
For the fishermen, who never made it.

Ad Continuum Files Exhibit C, D and E
Warning! This is going to be a very very long and image heavy update. After all, it IS the time of year, and I'm not talking about the holidays! It's a triple comic update! Wheeee! So... full views here: C, D and E
A little behind the scenes if you may.
This took a long time to come into fruition didn't it? Sorry for that, I was taking my customary chapter hiatus. This wouldn't mean though that I would be making the regular weekly updates, it IS the holidays after all, and I'm enjoying my super super short vacation. We shall see though, as the last time I went into hiatus, I created and released a couple of comedy comics to pass the time when I got bored. Don't expect it though, with Modern Warfare 2, Final Fantasy XIII and my thesis all just around the corner, waiting to pounce.
Anyways, so I decided to make a simple character dossier of all the characters that appeared or were mentioned thus far. It's going to be really really text-y so I hope you bear with it for now. The stats might get updated in the future too, and I don't only mean upgrades. Certain events may occur that could cause a downgrade or a decrease in the relative strengths of some if not all of the characters in the fiction (foreshadowing? maybe...). That said, I tried to keep the stats as "balanced" as possible, meaning if a character was introduced as strong, I give it its due stats. I may also improve on the five bar system; my brother said I could've included speed, but I thought that it might be skewed too much in Kabuto's favor. We shall see though.
As for the epilogue, it was a real pain to shoot, with all the activity in our house currently. I had to sneak the shoots when my folks leave or during the wee hours of the day, but I guess it turned out okay. What do you think?
I had been planning on making a side comic series project that is more involved production wise, but it never came to be. We shall see though, as I do have a script in mind already (but I haven't really gotten into typing it down, maybe sometime soon). It would include some never before seen FIGMAs from my collection, and some of the rather impressive array of in-scale or almost in-scale weapons I never thought I had lying around (due to my previous forays into GUNPLA). Anyways, I guess look forward to it sometime in the future.
And with that, I will see you all on the next ride! And this time on the next chapter for reals!

A Thousand Words Page 3
Have you ever heard of the saying "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder?" While it is true that beauty is subjective, and that as there are infinite beholders, there are infinite ways to define beauty, let me have a stab at my own. Beauty is not defined by outer appearances, neither is it the sum of the parts. Beauty is more akin to the personality, to character. Beauty is more akin to how, beyond the individual merits, the individual parts, there is something that draws you in, that pulls you close and that piques your interest.
After all, something is beautiful only if it catches your attention.
Subject: Dead Master
Manufacturer: Good Smile Company
Line: FIGMA (weapons used in the pictures did not come from the figure)
Series: Black Rock Shooter
Camera: Fujifilm Finepix S1000fd
Programs used: Photoshop (post editing)

Ad Continuum Chapter 2 Episode 9
Episode 9 yay! Again, full view here.
A little behind the scenes if you may.
Or maybe not... Too sleepy and dizzy... Effects on this got me all worked up...
After three somewhat frustrating days of work on this comic, this is what I ended up with. I'm kinda satisfied with it, what do you think? Normally I'm not an effects kind of person (yeah right) but I use them when appropriate (like, almost everytime). Anyway, yeah, there.
This would be the last episode for Chapter 2. This weekends comics would be the chapter enders, then I'd try to upload Episode 1 of Chapter 3 by Tuesday of next week (Tuesday, um, Hong Kong time?). Also, I made a little mistake with the numbering of the previous 2 episodes. Those episodes were actually episode 5, this one is episode 6.
See you all on the next ride! And on the next chapter!
