Herculine

I'm not sure if this is supposed to be solely about Pagafyr's avatar or if it's supposed to be like the "describe the above user" thread, so I'm going to do both. Pagafyr, I think your new avatar looks like a pile of burlap potato sacks arranged in such a way as to create an optical illusion. Sarya, Your avatar is the kind of woman I'd like to get to know better!

Thank you all for your compliments, and for your friendship. Rob_B, I'll be looking at the writing you've sent me this weekend and will stay in touch. Dezdimona, Luck is a relative and reciprocal concept. species5478, I think you have the heart of a poet and yet do not know it. Maharg67, I only jot down a few witty words here and there. It's you who truly write! Send you a PM I shall! Fifoo, As always you humble me, Gallant Prince! I hope that job of yours allows you some respite.

I'm intrigued and waiting anxiously for more.

There may not be many female company CEOs in the video game industry, but if you look at the credits for just about any game you play these days you'll discover that many women are involved in the industry.

Ban Pagafyr for his cheeky "ban g, ban g".

Ban Ancient Aeon for having "Aeon" in his name because Aeon Flux is my all-time favorite animated series.

Perhaps I shall then. I'll send what I have written so far, it's not much. Absolutely amazing artistry my dear. Your penmanship is exquisite, and highly arousing if I may be so honest. *wink* And see? Not a single "dirty" word! I'm utterly speechless... I've fallen madly in love with your writing and poetry. You deserve much more than the single kudos I gave you from before (unfortunately Dark0ne allows only one to be given per member...) I am but a modest bard, a lttle fairy with quil and parchment and passion as my ink. Surely I don't deserve such praise, but it does not go without thanks. I am humbled most by the praise of my new friends. Thank you deply.

Fine... Girl gamers are way lots betterer than everybody elses in the hole wide world! There... back on topic now!

:woot: A "game" party is starting! Girls vs Boys! But two against one... No chances for us on the paper boys... But with "positive focussing"... Let me coach you my friend! (Lol) :biggrin: I welcome your insight my friend - I still have a lot to learn, I'm just a kid for crying out loud. :S The deal is not to win, but to play the best we can... with esteem... and fun! And we love to play! (This is still about video games, right?)

A good suggestion as well.

Two hearts and two machines, Two lovers with separate screens. Electric links fill the space So we may talk as face to face. We share photos, clothed and not, To make each other feel so hot. A mouse it clicks, and then another; Over keyboards fingers flutter. Pulses race and fluids flow, Passion in a monitor's glow. Ecstasy found through the net To reach a climax I'll not forget. I'll yearn for more till next we link, And of your pic is all I'll think. You've won my heart, my cyber-lover, And in your place I'll put no other.

20 years old? By Oblivion's timescale you're ancient! Try to enjoy it despite the arthritis!

Well said, Master Librarian!

:blink: reminds me I have one in the oven (I made a promise to a Little Fairy)... I would be very happy to see more of yours. Pretty and petite magical creatures can be very patient as they live for hundreds of years, or so it's said. Please take your time, my friend, and I will wait by a mushroom. I know the world outside this realm can often be demanding. Besides, it's been a slight while since I've planted something of my own in my own garden. I've found some seeds, though...

You know, Rob, if you really want to post it but worry about banning, you could e-mail a copy to me, let me sprinkle some magic little fairy dust on it and then see how you feel about it.

More descriptive narrative and less choppy dialogue would really make this come alive to the readers. You're off to a good start.

*blush* I have feelings like everyone else, why hide them from people? And to answer your question... well, um... yes and no. Dezi, he might just be the one I'd fight you for! But then, something can be said for sharing as well...

Don't stop posting your stories! Don't get discouraged by lack of visitors to your thread! Sometimes I have time to stop and read a bit but it might take me a day or two to have time to leave an intelligent feedback as opposed to "gee, nice work". I can't speak for anyone but myself, but since I've started posting here I've just found so many different threads to watch that I just can't be everywhere all the time. Keep writing, just as I do. Some of my poems only get one or two comments from friends I've made here. I'll still write and if others do or don't comment at least I've expressed myself just the same.

Weird stuff but still oh so cool. I'm still loving this story!

Hi and welcome to the Nexus!

Well said, Rob. You're a true gamer! Since I started this topic I just wanted to take a quick second to thank EVERYONE for participating and expressing their opinions here. :thanks:

The boy isn't at all what he appears to be, is he?
