Just little things...

[everlastingsoul]

Started getting caught up with Ouran. Hee hee, Kyouya's not a morning person. I'm still not fond of Haruhi, though I don't hate her by any means.

My brother finally managed to fix his PS2. First thing I immediately played was Pop'n Music 12, since I've been having this mad urge to listen to the music in recent weeks. I'd still like to get my hands on the Contemporary Nation music, but I get the feeling the Pop'n Music soundtrack won't have full versions of the songs (which I want). I can't even look up the artist because I don't understand the kanji. Bleh.

Started making a list of ages and occupations for the Suiko modern fic. With so many different years and majors for college, it's hard to keep track mentally. Some things are still tentative, but ... well, everything's tentative until I write it into the story.

-- Albert Silverberg, age 20, senior, business administration major (marketing); undergrad research assistant (Fragmentation of Public Trust in Organized Agencies [FPTOA project])
-- Lilly Pendragon, age 20, sophomore, communications major (journalism/broadcasting); undergrad research assistant (FPTOA project)
-- Apple Goulden, age 22, graduate, psychology major (behavorial sciences); graduate research assistant (FPTOA project)
-- Shu Miyazaki, age 26, postdoctoral (Ph.D) candidate, political science/economics double major; research scientist (FPTOA project)
-- Mathiu Silverberg, age 33, assistant professor of psychology (social psychology/personality focus); FPTOA head investigator

-- Meg [no last name yet], age 18, freshman, electrical engineering major
-- Juppo [no last name yet], age ??, assistant professor of electrical engineering (not in Crystal Valley)
-- Sarah Bach, age 18, freshman, undecided

Need suggestions for tackling Odessa, Chris Lightfellow, and possibly some of the other Zexen Knights. Debating whether or not to have Sierra be a modern vampire.

Edit: Thanks for the lovely suggestions so far. ... I just had the totally random image of Chris being a police officer. *blinks* And I can't honestly say it wouldn't be fitting. Maybe I'll have Wyatt be a police officer or detective.

More characters:
-- Viktor "The Bear" [insert last name here], age 26, professional football player
-- Graham Cray, age 35, former industrial inspector (currently on welfare, possibly)
-- Alexander Cray, age 11, fifth-grade student (Caesar's classmate, Graham's son)

Another edit: Masa, you just killed me with awesome. XD

And now I'm imagining Chris smack dab in the middle of ... Phoenix Wright. "Objection!!" *falls over*

... And Gizel would be the prosecuting attorney with the over-the-top wardrobe... And Leon would be the always-frowning judge... *runs away before these weird ideas consume her*

Hmm...I would say put Chris in some sort of engineering field--perhaps Automotive?

I'd put Chris in business! Somehow I think it's funny if Sarah ever goes into psychology, or have her go into anthropology...

Write the kanji here and let me see if I can help you. :o

Odessa's totally a PolySci major. Flik, I think, is a courier or some kind of office monkey.

Chris is interning at her stepcousin Salome's law firm, having not yet gotten into Grad School. Percy's in veterinary school and Borus is a bailiff at the local courts.

Sierra should be some goth 'vampire' teen who has an off-and-on relationship with her boyfriend Neclord, who comes from a rich family but hates his life anyways and just wants to END IT ALL ALREADY. He has no major because he's rich and has been in college six or so years now. But she also has another off-and-on relationship with Nash, a journalist major, who wants the SCOOP ON SIERRA.

But Neclord hangs out with his buddies Yuber (on a football scholarship) and Windy (the somethingsomething scholarship) and make life miserable for everyone. Their favorite teacher is Graham Cray, who teaches robotics (cuz of like, his hand) and says "Bwahahaha, Wonderful!" about anything they turn in.

Their constant rivals are Khan Marley, the poor boy from a rough neighborhood. He probably like, wants to be an astronaut. He hates Neclord's guts. Leknaat is Windy's little sister and is mad cuz she NEVER gets the hot guys. She's also blind and is studying to be a teacher or something. Pesmerga is also a sports buff... but he plays Hockey. Unfortunately Football is more popular at this college, but Pesmerga will PROVE THEM ALL WRONG YOU HEAR!?

Then if you make Twaikin the creepy, secretive groundskeeper I'll be etenerally impressed or something.

I hope you wrote this stuff down, because man. I think my brain blew up in awesome right there.

Also, for Percy...maybe a professional horse trainer with his own farm and string of show horses? Or an actor. Somehow, I could see him on stage :D
