Mother's day for me went rather well. My mom stayed home, I had a card and a present ready for her (she pretty much told me to get her Murder She Wrote Season 4, but that's fine with me). The only down side was that by night time my mom had a rather bad episode of her now frequent humidity based pain, so it gave her a rather bad night (we live in Florida and my mother has rods in her back, arthritis, a relatively new prosthetic hip, and she's just sensitive to temperature and humidity anyway, so...).

But yeah, otherwise, things went rather well for me and my mom.

 

[Misheard Whisper]

I spent Mother's Day away from home for the first time. I got up at 9:30 to call my mum (which was pretty hard considering that I stayed up till three a.m. the previous night). I kinda wish I'd been able to be there, but at the end of the day there's nothing to be done about that. :3

 

[Kelleo]

I had to work seven hours on Mother's Day. >.>

But I gave my mom a cute card that has a beagle on it. And it looks like our beagle too! I thought it was perfect. Though my mom is actually a little more biased towards our golden retriever... lol

Hey guys. I'm considering reviving "Son of Earth". I've still got some ideas for it stewing in my head and I really did enjoy writing it. Would anyone be interested in me continuing Dante's story?

Does anyone even remember it?

 

[Soulmaster]

Oh hey M-dub nice to see you back Been a while since I've seen you here.

Mother's Day for me comprised of travel and headaches, not fun. Though I did spend the morning with my sister for brunch. The up side is half of the students in town left because graduation was Saturday

^I don't remember it, I guess I should add it to my ever growing list of things to read. Good thing summer is coming.

 

[ShinyFlareon]

I remember it! I'd love to see it come back, love :3

In semi-related news, this is probably the most adorable exchange in the history of ever.

I thought it was stupid how the Avatar only gets special convos with four out of a whole bunch of potential spouses. I wanted to see Frederick kiss my Avatar or vice versa. Would've been sweet to see him in swim trunks too, but I can still draw that myself at least.

 

[Nereus]

I woke up early on Mother´s day and bought her some tulips =) She was so happy

Also, what do you think of the new region? Is anyone considering writing a fiction in Kalos region?

 

[LightningTopaz]

I'm going to wait for more info before adding it into my work

 

[Sweet Veil]

It seems a bit too gimmicky to be trying to insert things from the Kalos Region into my fanfiction at this stage in the game, I figured after learning a bit and progressing past the main story it would be tempting. I have no plans to include any Kalos elements in my fic. at the moment, seems way too sketchy and it might turn away people since it seems like I would be playing on the sense of grandeur and relevance with the upcoming new generation rather than having a motive behind it story wise.

 

[Flaze]

I can understand how you feel, though I have plans for doing something set in Kalos once the games come out...though I'd rather learn about things myself rather than reading bulbapedia like it happened with Gen V

 

[Kelleo]

Wait, I thought it was called Karos, not Kalos.

Anyway, I actually might write a fic that takes place in it once the games are out because it's based on France. And France is awesome. ^^

Following my trend of having progressively shittier birthdays every year, my dog died yesterday. I haven't even had a chance to see her since spring break. Why does this stuff have to happen during midterms? I kept tearing up in class yesterday, thankfully no one said anything.

So yeah, that's how MY mother's day went. I called home to say hi, had a good conversation with my mom, then got told the dog had cancer and needed to be put down.

On a happier note, welcome back MW! I hope you can keep visiting when possible.

Also, to Ryuu: I remember Son of Earth! (I just never read it...). I'd totally check it out if you started writing again.

 

[Kelleo]

That's really sad, AetherX. Why couldn't your dog get treatment? Was it caught too late or were the vets just heartless fools?

 

[Soulmaster]

Wait, I thought it was called Karos, not Kalos.

In Japanese it is Karosu so that is probably what you were thinking about. Kalos was revealed to be the English name of the region this morning.

Actually, I'd seen it written as simply Karos. But I see. Not a bad name either way. I'm getting tired of seeing the letter O in every region name though. >_<

 

[Flaze]

It's pretty much a given that the regions will have an o in their name, at least in the english version.

They said that if we decided to treat this kind of case, it would be more for ourselves (my family) than for the dog. Apparently she was so weak that she couldn't even stand up the last day. I agree it was for the best, but that doesn't make it much easier.

So you could say you have an Isshu with it?

Oh, I see. That really sucks. I'm sorry.

lol funny. xP But yes, an issue.
