I can't run anymore, I fall before you
Here I am… I have nothing left
Though I've tried to forget, you're all that I am
Take me home… I'm through fighting it
Broken…
Lifeless…
I give up—you’re my only strength
Without you, I can't go on anymore—ever again…
My only hope (All the times I've tried)
My only peace (To walk away from you)
My only joy, my only strength… (I fall into your abounding grace)
My only power, my only life… (And love is where I am…)
My only love…
I can't run anymore, I give myself to you—
I'm sorry… I'm sorry…
In all my bitterness, I ignored all that's real and true:
All I need is you…
When night falls on me, I'll not close my eyes
I'm too alive, and you're too strong…
I can't lie anymore, I fall down before you—
I'm sorry… I'm sorry…
My only hope (All the times I've tried)
My only peace (To walk away from you)
My only joy, my only strength… (I fall into your abounding grace)
My only power, my only life… (And love is where I am)
My only love…
Constantly ignoring the pain consuming me…
But this time it's cut too deep—
I’ll never stray again…
My only hope (All the times I've tried)
My only peace (To walk away from you)
My only joy, my only strength… (I fall into your abounding grace)
My only power, my only life… (And love is where I am…)
My only love…
My only hope (All the times I've tried)
My only peace (To walk away from you)
My only joy, my only strength… (I fall into your abounding grace)
My only power, my only life… (And love is where I am…)
My only love…
1. You're a handsome devil. What's your name?
Uhh... Puri. XD
2. Ever write under any other name?
Yeah... Serebii37, then some recent Jigglypuff screename I can never make my mind up on. Damn.
3. Look around you. How did you end up here?
Halloween RP Philleh and I will continue before Thanksgiving. :)
4. Favourite line from the song you're listening to right now, or last listened to?
With you I stand in hope that God will save us from ourselves... and Even lands we once called home lie undiscovered and unknown, only heaven's silence for an answer... –“Genesis” by VNV Nation.
5. What's the last movie you saw that inspired something ficcish in you?
Lemme think, lemme think, lemme think! T___T I know a buncha movies make me think...
6. Is there a character you'd like to write, but can't-- and why the hell can't you?
Fawful. He'd be fun, but I wouldn't do his Engrish very well, funny, or original like I hope. T_T That, and Team Chaotix, but I A. Haven't beat "Sonic Heroes" yet. B. There's Chaotix members I've only heard about, and don't really have an idea of. C. Haven't played "Knuckles Chaotix". But when I get SH outta the way, I’ll be totally geared to write Espio, Vector and Charmy. ^^
7. We all hate favourite questions, I know, but-- who's your favourite character (a) to read? (b) to write?
A. Meta Knight, yo. ;D Game or Anime, humorous or sad, (Anime' version most likely for former. *fanfare* XDDD) Meta Knight is a kick to read. He's so mysterious, yet you have enough to draw from to make fic... with spectacular results. Seriously, you can only see so much interesting, exciting, and dramatic stuff from one character. He can be humorous (“Pointy things are pointy!”) he can be heart-wrenchingly angsty, he can be tired, he can be damn evil... followed by even more dark stuff like Nightmare. Dig around a bit, and it's amazing what I can find of him. Especially Shades of Grey by Neodragon, one of my favorite fanfics ever.
B. Doi, I like writing about my favorite characters. XD Some characters I've particularly felt close though... like Luigi for CWCR. He's so adorable, and he's all angsty in it and aww... I like writing him in it. That, and I involved a few other stuff with him, and he's so cute writing, I swear! :DD And Peach too, I like to involve her in a lot of stuff. :-) And uhh... I want to write about Shadow. Badly. XDD But we're talking about who I have written, soooo... XD
8. Who's your least favourite character (a) to read? (b) to write?
A. I skip anything labeled "Draco Malfoy". :DDD And anything where the characters are incredibly twisted OOC and such.
B. Dude, I'm not touching my least favorite characters with a 10-foot stick. XD I used to have this one scene in CWCR involving Lakilester and Lakilulu, but... ICK. I hated writing about Lakilester too much and just skipped the damn thing. My mood was all "ARGH! Obnoxious! >.<;;;;;" when I tried to write. XD
9. Is there a story you'd like to write, but can't-- and why can't you?
A Mewtwo fic I had in mind was a songfic of Evanescence's "Away From Me", but since Evanescence songfics are automatically labeled with the "BADFIC" sticker, I'll have to think of some other way. That, and as long as I don't have "Mewtwo Returns", I can't do anything with the fic. :(
I wanna do a parody of "Mario" badfic, but I haven't read every "Mario" fic at FF.net to know for sure if I've got all the cliches, and scriptfic is banned at FF.net. XD That, and it's hard to parody stuff when you've got good stuff coming for your fandom. :( I wanna write it someday, though…
10. What's a title you've always wanted to use, but haven't had the opportunity yet?
Until Then, Artificial Ice, and And Then, There Was None. And maybe Between the Gears. Don't ask about the third one, it appears in my head over and over for some reason. XD A friend written an FY fic called after the first title, and it’s been in my head since. :)
11. What was the first story you ever completed, and what do you think of it now?
Anime and Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory. XDDDDDD I have a copy at my old computer, but... crap. But here's what I remember:
A. "Gods, I was so immature. Look at all the horrible bashing I did and I didn't even know a few characters!"
B. "Dang, I was pretty imaginative. I wish I still had that much energy. It only took me this short to do ten chapters!"
C. "Oh GOD, I could only mutilate only so much reading only the first HP book at the time. I bet Ron's peeved, and Hermione. Poor Sirius. ;_;"
D. "Wow, I'll ‘prolly never be able to write DBZ, Sailor Moon, Fushigi Yuugi, Harry Potter, Legend of Zelda ever again. Nor write crossovers interesting like that."
E. "Gods, this is such wish-fulfillment! XD I even appear as a self-insert, tease Ash, and bring the Deku Butler's son back to life! XD Though that last chapter with me showing the cast the original Golden Ticket winners was interesting..."
F. "Ahh... back when I didn't know the Paragraph button existed."
G. “This review by someone called James Birdsong or something sums it all out: "Oh, the hilarity... some parts were funny, some weren't. Give me chocolate."
H. "Roald Dahl is gonna kill me."
12. What was the last story you completed, and what do you think of it now?
Sadly, To Be Real, which was done months ago and only recently uploaded on Icy Brain. XDDD For a fic I thought of forever and ever, it only took me several days to finish, and I was all casual while writing. Funny, eh? But hey, the world has good Geno fic now, and it's all thanks to me. ^_^ Really though... I wish I didn't blubber on about the Geno/Peach stuff in the A/N though. >.<
13. Where do you do most of your writing?
Microsoft Word. ^_^
14. Do you have any fic taboos?
MPREG. NO NO NO NO NOES! XP XD It's bad enough being pregnant, why press it on the guys too? T_T That, and it's squicky. Not. Touching. It. With a ten-foot-stick.
15. What made you start writing fic? Were you filled with creative juices, or was it a random act of plot correction?
One day, I read "Pokemon Jumanji" by Growlithe Trainer and I thought it was the most kickass thing ever. "Where can I find more stuff like this?" I asked my sister. So she led me to FF.net. She left me with a couple rules: "If you see "yaoi" in the summary, it means a romance between two guys. Whatever you do, DON'T read "lemon"s... they mean ‘graphic sex’". Then I was on my happy way. XD
16. Who has influenced your style the most?
I dunno... Anime'/Manga and video games, maybe? Or the fact I read Roald Dahl a lot as a kid. XD
17. What is the sexiest word?
Wha? You're talking to the wrong author here. XD
18. What is the least sexy word?
I can name quite a lot, but then again, see above. XD
19. What's the word you use too much/often?
How about using too much italics, dashes, and ellipses? XD If you mean words, then stuff like "especially" and "definitely"… but it depends on the fic really. XD
20. You're a writer. By definition you are plagued and pursued by images. So what image is burned into your brain right now?
…You’ll wish you haven’t asked. XDDD
Sonic and Shadow kissing. Maria and Shadow hugging. Shadow falling to earth, then an orange ball floating around him, which leads to him seeing Tikal and plot stuff there… after that, cue Shadow lying in a meadow in very much pain. Team Chaotix flying through a fake jungle wall into what looks like an endless pit (making fun of the glitches in "Sonic" games. XD) before seeing the orange ball and them seeing Tikal... then after that visit, kersplat on the floor. There’s something like an earthquake going on by a powerful force, and Espio meets up with Vector—holding his hand, the two look determinedly on.
Told ya ya didn’t want to know—I’m seriously fucked. XDD
21. If you were going to write professionally under an assumed name, what would that name be?
'Prolly my real name, with my middle initial. XD
22. If you'd made out this survey, what question would you have asked that I didn't?
What character have you not written yet but want to? If any, what ship was the most fun to write for you?
Man, whoever read this entry for Halloweeny stuff must be fairly disappointed. XDDD Me? Halloween can carry off with every supply of ostrich eggs and Charmin Ultras, 'cause I'm staying at home and typeting away at the computer before bed... and having an extra hour of sleep. ;D :P
The beach was fun today. :)
