Just ask any questions you may have about my story Psychic Avenue and as long as it's not too important to the plot I'll answer them. The questions can be as random as a character's favorite color or food, or something like how a certin character's ability works, even why I gave the characters their names if you're interested.

I'm bored, so here's a list of random facts that you may or may not want to know about Psychic Avenue.

-It was inspired by Fruits Basket... I know they have hardly anything in common, but it was.

-As mentioned in chapter 8 Lucy's favorite colors are yellow and green.

-Rai's favorite color is blue.

-Rei's is red.

-Kameko's, the twins little sister, is pink. Like alot of 11 year old girls.

-Harold(Lucy's dad) is a author.

-If Lucy had a song it would be 'Because of You' by Kelly Clarkson

-If Rei had a song it'd be 'Headstrong' by Trapt

-If Rai had a song it'd be 'Numb' by Likin Park

-Lucy's mom's name is Rebecca. Maiden name was Denman.

-Harold uses a penname. It's H. L. Denman, go figure.

-Hisoki's ability is to possess felines.

I might put more if asked or if I get bored again.

Ashton,

I thought it would be something unique. Glad to see you like it! 'Numb' is my favorite song by Likin Park, and it fits Rai very well for...reasons.

-Rei likes spicy foods.

-Rai likes sushi.

-Lucy likes chocolate ice cream.

-Lucy's parents got married on Nov 19.

-The twins birthday is March 17.

-Lucy's birthday is June 8.

-Kameko's is Oct 2.

-Hisoki's is Aug 24.

-I have way too much time on my hands.

-Suzume is older than Yachi, even if he pretends otherwise.

-Miyoko's a two faced jerk because he knows just how hypocritical most people are, and has become so wrapped up in that that he fails to see he's the same way.

I really have too much time on my hands... plus history is boring.

Ashton,

I like sushi :)

I can understand what you mean by too much time... it's having a serious effect on my writing... *pout*

I like sushi too. I even got to make some once... it didn't turn out well...

Yeah, I just found out I have to do a three page paper. It's not too bad, I just prefer to write my story. *also pouts*

Ashton,

Oh, you poor thing! That really sucks...

Sushi is rather hard to make, so I get my mother to do it instead XD; but I have tried once. Did you use one of those rolling mats?

I have an English assignment thingy, a two page modernised (is that even a word) Greek myth or legend. I have the choice of Narcissus (hate saying that, but narcissist is worse), Echo, or Arachne... My final copy will be posted by Friday!

Tess

storykeeper
Yeah, I used the rolling mats. It was fun, even if I wasn't good at it.

Why do teachers like to give so much work? Poor us, lol. What's really funny is that I'm going to write a short story and it's title will be Narcissus(there's some info on it on my profile page, if you're interested). I'm not sure if it should be in the manga section or not; it could go either way...

5/01/2007 #8
Seadrance
Ashton,

That is weird 0.o

Yes, I agree, school is for work, home is for you, lol. If/when you post Narcissus I'll check it out, kay?

Okay! Hope you like romance then. And I hope I can pull it off... *is surprised that I'm actually going to write something just for romance*

I just draw rough sketchs of Lucy, Rai, and Rei...and reproven that I can't draw. Well, Lucy's decent I guess, but I can't draw boys at all. I think I'll ask one of my friends that can draw, if she'll make good sketches of them. *gets idea* Then I can color them!... Wow, I sound like a five year old.

Frosted Midnight

It's K. And don't you dare give spoilers or hints! Just because you're a cure for writers block and a beta reader, you still can't!

More random stuff. Aren't ya'll happy.

-Ayame(twins' and Kameko's mom) has a greentumb; she can make any plant grow. And she's very sensitive to the earth's energy. (poor her, she has a sort of lame ability)

-So far, there's a total of two guys that have a crush on Lucy.

-There's one girl that actually sort of likes Rei.

-Poor Rai has no one stalking him... maybe he should talk more...

-The people who can block their mind from Miyoko are Yachi, Suzume, Ayame, Hisoki, and of course Lucy.

-Yachi's ability is *loud noise*; it's a great ability, isn't it!

*goes to finish writing chapter 10*

yay! i love random stuff - it's really interesting sidestuff that i'm enjoying looking at while i wait for a new chapter...
5/19/2007 #14
storykeeper
Thanks! I love random stuff too. I'll probably put some more random facts up tomorrow afternoon.
5/19/2007 #15
storykeeper
Yay! More random stuff.

-Miyoko's name is a pun. I'm poking fun at all the girly looking boys in manga/anime. You see 'ko' is a feminine ending for names in Japanese. His name should probably be along the lines of Miyomaru, but Miyoko just sounds better to me.

-Akira is the grandson of Yachi/Suzume's cousin.

That's all I got now, but I'll be putting up some character bios later today.

Here's Lucy's bio. Most, if not all, of this stuff ya'll already know, but whatever. Rei and Rai's will be up tomorrow.

Name: Lucy Brennan

Age: 15

Birthday: June 8

Hair: Light brown

Eyes: Green

Height: 5'5

Family: Harold(father), Rebecca(mother- deceased)

Occupation: High school student(10th grade/ sophomore)

Likes: The colors yellow and green, chocolate ice cream, horror movies, and climbing trees.

Dislikes: Homework, red roses, and guys hitting on her.

Personality: Lucy is a live for the moment kind of person. Most the time she has a smile on her face and is good with younger kids. Lucy is tomboyish. She is also sarcastic and can be fairly morbid. However, she is rather stubborn and prideful; she doesn't like bringing other people into her problems and has a habit of hiding her troubles.

Dislikes: School, his uncle Miyoko, and authority figures.

Personality: Rei is very rebellious and rarely does what he's told. The only people he'll listen to are his mother, Hisoki, grandfather Yachi, and sometimes Suzume. He only listens to Yachi out of fear, but is in the process of overcoming that fear. He generally has a good sense of humor and likes to tease people. At school, besides randomly hitting on girls, he tends to kept to his self, but not as much as his twin.

Dislikes: When guys hit on Lucy, how Yachi treats her, and when Rei/Kameko annoy him.

Personality: Rai suppresses his emotions most the time and is a withdrawn person. The only people he really opens up to are his siblings and Lucy. He deeply cares for those he's close to and is a reliable person. He works hard in school, because he wants to do well. But also enjoys just hanging out with his brother and Lucy. In school he rarely talks to anyone, besides Rei and Lucy, unless he's helping them or vise versa.

*goes to work on chapter 11*
