While driving long distance the other day, I played a soundtrack to keep boredom from putting me to sleep at the wheel ... and suddenly realized this might well make a Gatesong.
Hey, with these lyrics, it's practically a themesong for the Walk!
"Journey to the Past" (from the animated movie Anastasia, in case anyone didn't recognize it)
Heart, don't fail me now!
Courage, don't desert me!
Don't turn back now that we're here
People always say
Life is full of choices
No one ever mentions fear!
Or how a road can seem so long
How the world can seem so vast
Courage see me through
Heart I'm trusting you
On this journey...to the past
Somewhere down this road
I know someone's waiting
Years of dreams just can't be wrong
Arms will open wide
I'll be safe and wanted
Finally home where I belong
Well, starting here, my life begins
Starting now, I'm learning fast
Courage see me through
Heart I'm trusting you
On this journey...to the past
Heart don't fail me now!
Courage don't desert me!
Home, Love, Family
There was once a time
I must have had them too
Home, Love, Family
I will never be complete
Until I find you...
One step at a time,
One hope, then another
Who knows where this road may go
Back to who I was
On to find my future,
Things my heart still needs to know
Yes, let this be a sign!
Let this road be mine!
Let it lead me to my past
Courage see me through
Heart I'm trusting you
To bring me home...
At last!
At last!
Courage see me through
Heart I'm trusting you
yea...
Anastasia came out in November '97, so Doug is unlikely to have heard this song in Warrior's World. The big question is whether he'd run across it in any of the worlds he visits -- even if they have it, will anything call this song to his attention?

So, two days into the Hallowe'en event, here are my latest costumes for Morgan and Minuet.

And, even though he's not as well known, Morgan and Bella's son, Madrid (Fire Tank, Justice), has been costumed as well.

One of the better-known RP supergroups on Virtue is holding a party tomorrow night.
They have the best web flier EVER.
I'm not gonna spoil it

So, in discussion of Things To Do In Pocket D On Halloween, we came up with the idea.
Have an Arena Match... with everyone in costume.
For example, Team A: PPD Cops. Team B: Trolls.
Take lots of screenshots. Record a demo or two, if possible.
And if someone wants to take the time to make a music video of it... so much the better. --

Who here has come up with bizzare or alien creatures to populate some fantasy or sci-fi world?
*raises hand*
What are some of them like? How did you come up with them? Is there any interest in a general rant/discussion thread on this topic, or should I just stick to giant mecha?

I worked up a quick logo for the supergroup to put on its wiki page before I went on vacation; I meant to ask folks what they thought of it before I left but forgot. So I'm asking now. (I also did up headers for most of my characters, in case anyone's interested in looking.)
(In case anyone wants to try their hand but doesn't have the tools or wherewithal to work from scratch, try Flamingtext.com, which is what I used to generate the headers I've used.)-- Bob

One of the primary differences between the Left and the Right is their attitude toward the Future. The Radical wants the Future to have gotten here yesterday. The Reactionary wants the Future quietly shot and the corpse buried where no one can find it.

Then the horns kicked in...
...and my shoes began to squeak.

So I was bopping around the COH boards, procrastinating laundry, when I came upon this nice little thread. I particularly like the post by Fireforged. Thought I'd share.
