FAILED

Week 1: Wild
~ Tenuous Grip
_{Rated: NC-17

Excerpt: "The man, boy, was bound by the wrists to the chair leg behind him; his ankles were no better off – tied tightly to one another, the leather cuffs cutting deeply into his flesh. The teen was stretched out, pulled to his full length by the bindings. It had been merely an hour since they arrived, and already he felt himself about ready to pass out in terror. How had he gotten himself here? How did he fall for such obvious tricks?"}

Week 2: Dark Fairytales
~ Morality Bites
_{Rated: N/A

Excerpt: "Since a young age we have been bombarded with stories of morality, and assailed with instruction and imperatives to “Do to no one what you yourself dislike”*. A very.., simplistic idea, in theory."

Incomplete.}

Week 3: Paradise
~ Transient
_{Rated: N/A

Excerpt: "A sharp dot of light – just in the periphery of your vision – spoils the perfection of the inky blackness. The blight broadens even as you turn to gaze in wonder, it becomes larger, greater: an immense chasm of ethereal light radiating in the gloom."}

Week 4: Flower Vase
~ You asked me once...
_{Rated: N/A

Excerpt: "On my windowsill there sits a vase. It is dark in colour, blue and gold. Light shines past it, casting deep shadows across the wall opposite. Where it sits, it sits alone. The vase gets pride of place in my home, unlike you."}

Week 5: Natural
~

Week 6: Gaelic Mythology
~

Week 7: Masks
~ Dancing Fool
_{Rated: N/A

Excerpt: "The tinkling of tiny bells filled the room, echoing minutely through the halls extending off of the majestic hall; with each step, stamp, stride, the bells became a symphony – a cacophony of ringing."}

Week 8: Season

Week 9: Roots

Week 10: Ash / Fourth wall / Heresy / Ring / Secret

2008-09-30 [Chimes]: YOU USED THE TEA!! :P
What's the second font? The first is Jellyka Castle's... which ever. :P

2008-09-30 [Duke Devlin]: I HAD to! XD It's ME! I must be shown by tea! :D XD
The second font is.. Dead Secretary. :D XD

2008-09-30 [Chimes]: I'm surprised you didn't put a dice in though. XD
Aaah. Awesome.

My banner has my GodSister on it. XD I likes the photo.

2008-09-30 [Duke Devlin]: I was GOING to.. XD But I couldn't find a decent enough shot of one. :P I'll include one in a challenge page. :P
:O I was trying to work out who it was. XD

2008-09-30 [Chimes]: Hooray!

Ah, well, her name is Ruth. She's lovely. :]

2008-09-30 [Duke Devlin]: XD :D
Well, congratulations to her for being in your portfolio banner! :D XD

2008-09-30 [Chimes]: Yeaaah! I loves that shot. ^^ I am going to TRY and use my own photos for all of my banners.

2008-09-30 [Duke Devlin]: Good! :D I am lazy, and use stock. ^^ *lazeh*

2008-09-30 [Chimes]: Awwwh! <3

2008-09-30 [Duke Devlin]: :D Laziness ftw. ;)

2008-10-29 [Chimes]: And I was expecting to actually be able to read what was on that link. XD

2008-10-29 [Duke Devlin]: Hahah nope. :P Not finished yet. XD I've got a bit, if you want me to send it? :D

2008-10-29 [Chimes]: Yes! :D

2008-10-29 [Duke Devlin]: XD Okay, one sec. :P

2008-10-29 [Linderel]: Request, as in rule #3: use the rating scale from G to R. :P
Also remember that truly graphic scenes should be avoided. :3

2008-10-29 [Duke Devlin]: Ooo crapsticks., D: Okay, so.. I don't know that rating scale. D: I shall put R.. to be safe. D:
I will be sure to really avoid. ^^ Hence stopping there on Tenuous Grip. :P

2008-10-29 [Chimes]: Would NC-17 be part of that scale? If so... it fits under that.. I think.

2008-10-29 [Linderel]: It goes G, PG, PG-13, R, NC-17. You can also call something 'hard R'. Here's an article dealing with it, I don't quite agree with the definitions but it gives you a general idea. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPAA_film_rating_system

So yes, NC-17 would be part of that scale, but above R so... Meh. I don't know, I'll have to think about this.

2008-10-29 [Duke Devlin]: Hmm, I shall read that. :) Thank you for your help, you guys. :) <3

2008-10-29 [Linderel]: Welcome!
And I'm only banning graphic scenes because while I don't mind smut, graphic violence makes me queasy. <_< Once managed to make myself nauseous while writing Dreamscape. :P ...and if I ever finish Happy House, it will happen again. >_<

edit: Bah, had to fix the wiki link. I always forget which ones need the extra space.

2008-10-29 [Duke Devlin]: :)
Awhh! ;.; Bless you! D:
I found that while I was writing that, I was trying to make myself feel sick. XD I wanted to write pretty bad stuff, but found it was probably better to leave it on an indication of things to come. XD
But that's just me. :P I'm a bit odd. oO
See, I can't read smut. :P It bugs me! D:

2008-10-29 [Linderel]: Haha. Testing your limits, perhaps?

2008-10-29 [Duke Devlin]: I believe so, yes. :P

2009-04-12 [Duke Devlin]: Can y'all leave a comment real quick if you are watching? I wanna know who my watchers are. :P

2009-04-12 [Chimes]: Boo.

2009-04-12 [Duke Devlin]: Heheh thankya. :)
