Diary Entry

I appreciate the attention, but...

Hello everyone. This is Blixt, just with a little public service announcement about etiquette in the Forest.

As you may be aware, there are special masks that the Twin Gods give out to random deer - the luchador masks. I was given one of them when I was first brought to the Endless Forest, and as it is special, I would kindly ask that you treat me just like anyone else in the Forest. I did not ask for the mask, but I hang onto it because it was a gift from the Gods.

Therefore, if you see me sitting somewhere and you want me to play with you, please just bow once. If I do not respond (I.E. my real hands are not on the keyboard [such as if I were eating lunch or talking to someone in the room]), please do not be angry at me. Just kindly walk away and find someone else to play with. Sitting next to me is perfectly fine, but if I don't respond, then don't be angry with me.

I do not appreciate being pestered when I am trying to relax. It is rude to me (and the real me too) when someone acts angry with me because I do not stand up and bow to them. Again, if you are only pestering me because of my mask, please do not and please find someone else to play with.

I understand the fog makes many of you act differently than you normally would. I would ask that you try to be respectful even when conditions are like this. It is understandable that the fog makes it hard to see others, but that does not mean that you have to act without etiquette.

Thank you for reading, and I look forward to meeting you in the Forest.

Fog [short story]

Last night I fell into a restless sleep. It has been some time since we have had fog this thick, this heavy. It’s lingered for so long. I was glad for the company of my mate, my son, and my son’s new friend. After the events of the evening, it was hard for me to let myself relax. But with Wesker around, I soon found my eyelids drooping, and sleep finally finding its way to me… and I welcomed it as best I could.
------

I do not remember much of myself as a fawn before I came here. I don’t know if it is because my mind wishes it that way, or if it was because I was simply much too young. But every now and then, fragments of those times pop up into my mind…usually when I am sleeping. They take me to those days which I would rather forget..
Mountains were my home. Tall mountains with thousands of trees that seemed to stretch on forever. It was here that I opened my eyes for the first time. Winter was long here, but it was worth it for the summers. At least, that is what I heard from others in the herd I was born to. It was a small herd, mostly made up of does. Then there was my father.
Nowhere near as large as, well, say, Wesker, Sir Iaurdagnaire, or even Virgil.. But from where I came from, he was a formidable foe. He had survived many battles of the rut and battles for his life, and he had scars on his flank to prove it. He was not a kind stag. He didn’t have to be kind; that was not his role in life. He simply needed to make sure his fawns he fathered would make it to the next year. And that his does were not harmed.
I do remember the day he looked at me. With total disgust. My fur, my pelt, had never been the same color since the beginning; a bluish tint from the start. I, of course, smiled at him. I didn’t know any better. And then, his first words to me:

“Get it out of my sight.”

-----
For whatever strange reason in the next few weeks, my mother did not abandon me, although my father pressed, almost threatened her to.

"Knowledge Doesn't Lie With the Good..."

Keme

"...does it, Sir Osias?" He smiles bitterly, a strange sight on the fawn's face that is normally alight with laughter, curiosity, something innocent. Not today...something is strange about the fawn. His antlers have been growing in, now, fast in this magical forest...He will have his first set soon. Little candles, complete with a glowing flame, lay in front of the first tine, flickering in an odd beat with his heart and blinks.

He had found this deer because he sensed that Osias knew something, something that he wanted to know too.

He stares at him, sitting above the fawn like a king on his portion of the broken stone. Keme sits below, with no illusions. He is not a king, just a fawn. Just a fawn attracted to strange, often dark creatures, leading him to ones like the Demon sitting above him. The bitter smile fades as he begins to speak softly to himself, murmuring.

"My mother...adopted mother. I don't think she'd like you, Sir...But then again, she didn't even raise a hoof to say 'don't'. Not like Kaoori at all...I think she loves somebody more than me, Mister." He looks for confirmation from the Demon, then suddenly continues.

"It's this fawn...'Empty Child'. Miss Joro loves it...It'll be a fawn forever, you see, Mister Osias. Not like me," He looks up, attempting to see his own antlers, "'Cause I'll be a stag soon." He sighs and looks down, frowning.

"And she said she loved me too, but she didn't say 'forever'. I think she gave up on me..." He looks back up suddenly as the demon moves to sit beside him, for reasons he can't quite understand. Osias is warm, a welcome friend in the atmosphere of the mist he is so frightened of.

I...I want in on it too |3

...and it sorta helps me out with character development XDD

Questions? Please? For anybody? Or start interacting in some way?

Cato (me)
Atiq bio
Nocturne bio (i know no one really knows this guy, you will soon, trust me C:)

and any other character I have that you can think of, if you know one from my deviantart that you have questions about or something I don't care XD Or even know why they'd come to mind ^^;

These sort of things just sort of things help me develop characters by seeing how the react to certain situations and questions and it helps me figure out their individual languages and mannerisms C:

Today is the first day of the rest of his life

it's so nice to be back in the forest

i'd just like to say hi and thanks to everyone for helping clothe my deer, Quinlan. i'm not feeling well today but having some company in the forest and finding places for Q and i to sleep has been so good. Q's favourite coat is the black one with white underbelly, branching white antlers (the really fancy tree-like ones) and the deer nose mask tied on with a red ribbon.
He's pretty relaxed about letting his old outfit come to him when it does... but on that day, he'll take great pleasure in posing.
thanks again, my deer companions!
