The Girl with the Books

I'd love to help, but unforunately I can't sing and I don't have a working mic to sing into anyway. Maybe I can help with some other stuff though?

I usually get mad at myself for feeling sad and then slip into a spiraling downfall of both depression and self-pity. The self-pity fuels the depression and the depression fuels the self-pity. And then I realize I am just being a whiny American and get furiously mad at myself and just shut away my emotions for a time. During that time I tend to realize how unexciting my life is and how I rarely ever feel true happiness or sadness. And then I go read, write, and/or set things on fire. Also, music can help. Surprisingly enough for me, being empathetic/sympathetic to the emotional pain of others can actually sooth my own pain.

Is it not man, creator of both of these horrors, who is the true monster? We compensate for our own ferocity by making ourselves the victims in the case of both vampires and werewolves. Children fear these beings more than they fear humans, yet humans are the only ones that would cause such child unprovoked and unnecessary harm.

No no no, I'm talking about the crazy plant growth and decay of human buildings. Sure iit would happen but no where near that quickly.

This song... I think I might cry just posting this. It's such a beautiful piece, and it means so much. I know it's just from a game, but that game...

It's a decent show (honestly I've only seen the first few episodes), but my biggest problem with it is that the "15 years later" looks more like 150 years later.

Glad you liked it! I would have liked to be a bit more cryptic about the joke/reference/whatever, but I couldn't manage to do that and keep the paper as informative as it needed to be for the assignment.

Hey guys, this is the first one of my works that I'm going to upload here on the forums. I wrote this over the last week or so for a class I'm taking. It's not perfect, and it really is meant to be a bit of a joke, so be sure to keep that in mind while reading it! ~Have fun!

Thanks for the welcome! Lilly? That's technically my name (Lillie)! Anyway, I like the more classical pieces, and I especially like sci-fi works that talk about/give examples of dystopian futures. I love to see how humanity predicts its own downfall, the reaction of the people, and the adaptation of Earth. When I write I prefer to use a either a dark, satire, comical, or serious voice. Yeah, I know, all over the place. xD I especially like to think when I'm reading and likewise, I like to make my readers think! ... A Phlog Pyro? ... Um... Hm... Well, whatever works for you! xD Sure thing! I just finished a piece today, so I'll be uploading that soon, stay tuned!

Ha ha, sounds like it! That's awesome, what kind of stuff do you write about, do you have a favourite style? A favourite name for your characters? A favourite time or place? A favourite voice? A favourite genre? Tell me all about your writing style!

Hello Dusty! Thanks for the warm welcome, this place is already shaping up to be the awesome and friendly place I was expecting! Thanls! I'll be sure to do that if need be! "Ace Attorney"? I LOVE those games! I used to have a crush on Edgey, but I'm over that now... totally... yeah, totally over it...

Thanks! I do hope I enjoy it here, I can't wait to upload some of the pieces that I've been working on. I've got everything from a step-by-step guide on how to control the common people under totalatarian rule, to creepypastas regarding humanity's past and creepypastas themselves, to poems on pain, sadness, redemption, love, and (what else? ) the power/beauty/mysteries of fire.

"The autumn leaves blew over the moonlit pavement in such a way as to make the girl who was moving there seem fixed to a sliding walk, letting the motion of the wind and the leaves carry her forward..." Hello everyone, I'm Pyro_Chick 451 and I'm a fire enthusiast. Also writing is quite important to me. I haven't been a "brony" or "pegasister" long and honesty, I'm not even that into the show, I'm really a fan of the community behind it. My favourite books are Fahrenheit 451, Through the Looking-Glass, and Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (dat subtext). I play a bit of TF2, using a friend's account to play rather than making my own, and I main Pyro, Medic, and Scout. If I had my way, the Pyro would turn out to be me, a distressed soul, eager to learn and have fun, who gets a thrill out of watching things burn (literally, literally, and literally). Anyway that's me, Pyro_Chick 451 a.k.a. Lilllie, in a flaming hot nutshell. P.S. I'm not seventeen yet, but I will be next month, and I'm not yet sure about the crazy part, I just feel obligated to say both. xD
