NOTE! The bottom part of his personality blurb is me going off of you wanting an Acha to join RRT with. XD His name isn't concrete, it was just what I had written down -- though if we want some naming theme, we can do that too. :9
Quote:
Kin 2's Name: Bottom (or if you think I should change it, maybe "No Lower") Three Personality Keywords: Clumsy, boisterous, easily pleased. Short Personality Blurb: He's a bit of a bumbling type; eager to please, finding the greatest joy in the smallest things, he can be more than a little simple-minded. With childish awe, he can usually be found mooning over a performance troupe, having no skill to join one but having ample appreciation of a show to enjoy it. (That she is there is just -- a perk -- yes, right...)
Is this too close to the 'normal' Bottom? I have no recollection...

Kin 1's Name: for Titania Three Personality Keywords: Haughty, Morbid, Forceful Short Personality Blurb: Have you ever watched a flower wither away, its breath stolen by the wind? Have you ever seen blood twist through the water, singing about life and death in one turn? Beauty and life are ephemeral, fleeting, and are all the more breathtaking because of it. You fools of the world, so blind and helpless, you see my eternal blossoms and my dancing leaps and you think in beams of light. You don't see my cutting hooves, my striking teeth, so blind. But my dance is a hunt, you are my prey.
I like the name Bottom for him, I think it fits. I think maybe if the sonnet were a back and forth, we could explain Titania's (haven't found a name for her yet...) interest in Bottom (which is completely inexplicable to her).

Kin 2's Name: Bottom Three Personality Keywords: Clumsy, boisterous, easily pleased. Short Personality Blurb: He bumbles, trips over words that don't come easy and stumbles over his own best intentions. The flutter of butterfly wings can captivate him as easily as the most striking kin, simple of mind and easily satisfied by the small things in life. With childish awe, he can usually be found mooning over a performance troupe, having no skill to join one but having ample appreciation of a show to enjoy it.
When it comes to her, it is simple for him: he loves her, and she always comes back.
I LOVE the idea for the sonnet -- something we can both contribute to. Will we keep it to the standard Shakespearean method? And who shall start: Titania with her inexplicable return or Bottom, with his simple and whole-hearted love of her? XD

I think, maybe start with him? He could be mooning and then she returns?

Oh and definitely Shakespearean Sonnet.
I've been looking through Titania's lines and kind of like "mine eye enthralled" for a name, something a little more complicated to offset Bottom's simple name? Still looking, so maybe something will pop out in my mind.

Can I say, that I already REALLY love their opposing natures? Not in the 'opposites attract' manner but that it happens despite all the odds. His simple forwardness her complex uncertainty over the situation -- I already want to RP them LOL!
I will start on the Sonnet tomorrow between breaks, as I'm between classes atm >v<

This might change/be edited a little as we go, I have no brain for poetry right now (;lkjasfdl;hag iambic pentameters AAAGH) but I know we're running low on time now. >n<
You steal mine breath, mine heart, oh lady fair but they are yours to take, so as you please keep me in your sky-clad eyes I declare home is your grace, love of you comes with ease

That's okay! I tried writing something last night and was like... Uhhhh.... Haven't written structured poetry in a while.
I'm just going to word vomit.
I turn away, don't want to see your face these strange feelings that claim my heart for you They draw me near, but against them I brace alas, I have returned, for they prove true
Uhhhh.... poetry...

IT DIDN'T QUOTE ME. E N E And spoilering the previous parts just so I can see it all together.
You steal mine breath, mine heart, oh lady fair but they are yours to take, so as you please keep me in your sky-clad eyes I declare home is your grace, love of you comes with ease
I turn away, don't want to see your face these strange feelings that claim my heart for you They draw me near, but against them I brace alas, I have returned, for they prove true
The sun can no sooner deny the sky than I can question how I feel as 'us' though I may not know why you stay with I I am only yours, no doubts to discuss

My heart and mind in conflict, still I stay we touch, bright and dark, for my heart holds sway
Should we choose colors or italicize or something to differentiate the two speakers?

Yeah we could put a note for that -- and Bottom's can be grey, if you want to offset them with color!

I think grey and note would be great!
How do you feel about the poem?
Posted: Sat Feb 09, 2013 10:18 pm
I feel it's rather tragic and one-sided, and therefore perfect. XD How about you?
