Description
"So... Are we cool?" - Adam"Yeah, we're cool. Cooler than ice.... You're my best friend, after all. You've never let me down... And you're supposed to be quite the pessimist." - Tara
"Hey, what are friends for?" - Adam
These are two of my own characters. They are Adam Riley and Tara Allessi. I'm a total AdAra fan and, to show just how obsessed I am, I make a couple of photomanips .
The two are also found in one of my earlier works (Like Ghosts in the Snow). Feel free to check it out and read the Artist's Comments for their short profiles. ^^
I personally think they're cute together. *wide grin* I hope you'll like it as much as I do. (Please excuse my Own-Character-Fankidness)
If, by any chance, you're wondering why Adam looks kinda familiar... Well, about two weeks ago, I found out that he looked quite a bit like Mikey Way of MCR. ...I'm so weird.
Time taken: 1 hour of coloring - Photoshop 7
Tara Allessi and Adam Riley are (c) to me

Cute. Who do you use as Tara in photomanips?
Don't worry about fangirling over your own characters... -is a total Quinnlette fangirl, and a Gerarlie fangirl when it comes to my fanfiction-
Really nice image, they look great. -is jealous of your ability to draw guys-

Thank you. The guy thing... Well, just keep practicing. You draw guys pretty good too. ^^
I am such a fangirl. And... oh yeah, you ARE a Quinlette person. Cute. I'm into Tracy and Gerard but... they're more like real people than characters.
As for Tara... Do you know Clemence Poesy, aka FLEUR DELACOUR? Well, I use her. I just color her hair brown using that thing you taught me.

I know... It's not that guys are harder... they're just different... and I'm just used to drawing girls.
Quinnlette = Quinn's creator and I are beginning to be concerned over our unnatural obsession with our characters...
Ah, yes. My friend on the RPG made Fleur as a character and is always complaining about Clemence (she doesn't like her much). That's cool. Sometime you'll have to let me see one of these photomanips.

Yeah... hense my signature,"Day after day, I'm thankful that there is no law against torturing fictional characters... if there was I'd be serving 25 to life right now, with no chance of parole..."
They take practice... I won't pretend I'm any expert or anything, but these things take practice.
But I just finished one that took hours (and it's for a character that doesn't even exist yet >.< that I'm really proud of that I want to show you: [link]

Thank you. Camilla Belle. Yeah, she's gonna be a new character named Annabelle Lee, (Maybe just Annabelle... not sure) ... But she's not going to be introduced for a long long long time. Maybe if we find another site we'll join as her and her twin to test their characters out in the mean time...
Yeah. Lots of pictures are always good. It's handy if you can find fan galleries with photoshoot outtakes and stuff.

COOL! Wow... that would be great. *laughs* Annabelle Lee.... Nicolette... There's something about these names. I like them...
I'll try. Some of the pics I found had really colorful backgrounds which are kinda noticable and hard to cut out... but it's worth all the work anyway. *shrugs* I kinda get this happy feeling when I accomplish a photomanip.

Torture!
Hehe. Annabel Lee is an EA Poe Poem. She dies in the poem (some of the poem is in the photomanip)... Nicolette was a random find on a Baby Names website. ^^
Yeah, it's always nice to find backgrounds that are plain. Like that one, it had the carousel and everything in the background. Pain in the ass... but then if the person is pale, the white background can be annoying too...

Torture Woman... Iron Maiden. (random)
Oh, so THAT's why Annabel Lee sounded familiar... I think we read that Poe poem (Whoa) in English once... I go to Behind The Name to look for names... There are some weird sounding ones in there. *nods*
I agree. When your person is pale... the skin kinda gets "with" the white background. *shrugs* Something like that. Photomanips can be a pain, but... like I said, we all end up happy in the end.

Yep. EA Poe is always fun to study. Behind the Name... I'll have to remember that.

Yes! I love photomanipulating things. I've got two I plan on making this weekend... even though Nicolette's already got like..249725047 signatures... Oh well.

*nods in agreemment* I love EA Poe's poems...
I honestly like pale better than rosy or tanned... For some strange reason. ^^
Uh, you're kidding, right? Honestly, I can tell you're obsessed with Nicolette... Obsessing over your characters is fun... *grins* Speaking of which... I already know who to use in photomanips for some of my other characters. I use Mikey and Clemence as Adam and Tara, right? The other guy, Terrence, the one who loves coffee (Tara's older bro)... I'm thinking of using Daniel Isaac/Groom in Panic!AtDiscoVid/Richard Morgues (thanks to you). There's another girl... she's not a part of the main cast, but she's sorta like... Terrence's love interest... I'll be using Alexis Bledel.^^

EA Poe = Fantastic
Yeah, Tans aren't that attractive... especially those fake orange ones.
I have about twenty for her, I think. I have nothing better to do, I make her signatures a lot.
Daniel Issac is so hot... but there's not so many pics of him. XD I love Richard, though, he's fantastic, I wish I would have made more threads with him...
Anyway, that all sounds good, I'd love to see them when you're done. ^^

EA Poe. I try to search for books by him in our library but... they're pretty rare.
Ugh, I hate fake orange. It makes the person look... weird. Unreal.
Twenty signatures. But it's Avril and she's got lots of pics... Tracy is REALLY rare. And so is Daniel Isaac. VERY, VERY rare. I have that picture you use as a sig for him. He looks cute there. *grins* Rich's dating... Fleur, right? Lol, Fleur Morgues. *smiles*
Hmm... I just finished a manip of Terrence (Daniel) and Davey (Alexis)... I'm not really confident about my manips, but... Oh well. [link]

Yeah, tracy, daniel, both fantastic people... so little pics. Yeah, Rich and Fleur. So many of us make fun of him... so he gets the pretty french girl.
It looks pretty good. Could be positioned a little better.

Thanks. I'll keep that in mind the next time I do more practice manips.
EA books = Pretty difficult to find around here...
Uh-huh. Fake orange = unreal, bad...
That's nice. It's pretty easy since it's Avril. But I love her (Avril, I mean). I like her actions. She's pretty fun. I also love your new Hogwarts profile stuff, especially the signature.
So little pics...... Wow. *chuckles at pretty french girl* Rich looks just like the kind of guy anyone would make fun of... I never really noticed this, but... Rich and my charry (the one I use Daniel with) have a lot of stuff in common... Both are older brothers... both are made fun of (yesh) ... and is Rich that smart-guy type, cause Terrence is too. ^^

Try searching some online site, I'm sure you can order some. borders.com or something.
Yeah, she's cool, I like the way she dresses and such. I found a few pics of her in some corsets and I was excited, b/c Nicolette wears those a lot. The pictures pretty much express a characteristic like Nicolette too... which I find ironic because I chose Avril super-randomly.
Yeah, poor Rich. The headmistress in particular likes to make fun of him. XD
And yeah, Rich is the book-smart one.

Have you seen her new music video,"Girlfriend"? It's amusing, got a good beat. Only one verse doesn't suck though.... and the video could do without the slutty dance in it... but I found it amusing.

auntarctic In reply to DRACOgit [2007-03-03 18:09:58 +0000 UTC]
Yeah, it's on youtube, that's where I watched it.
The other verses,"Hey-Hey! You-you! I don't like your girlfriend. No way! No way! I think you need a new one. Hey-Hey! You-You! I could be your girlfriend." And part of it goes,"She's like, so whatever, you could do so much better, I think we should get together now." And I only know these because these two verses take up about 70% of the song. The only verse I'm completely in love with is,"Don't pretend, I think you know I'm damn precious. And hell yeah! I'm the mother fucking princess!"
Avril's doing some slutty dance moves (though not anywhere near as bad as some music videos out there o_o) with some back-up dancers. And she's got on some really short shorts. I think it would have been just as effective in a nice skirt...
Besides the slutty dance moves and the annoying lyrics, I found the music video quite amusing and the song has a nice beat that gets stuck in your head quite easily. In parts of it she's wearing a black wig and I made Nicolette another nice signature using images from it: [link]

I'd think the Death Eaters probably just robbed him of any money he might have had with him at the time, as well as anything of value in their home. You can't break into Gringott's, so I can only assume that their money is still safe.

So, basically, if Aradia and Emilee get hold of some of their parents' money, (if and only if) there's a possibility that they might get chased off by Death Eaters too? O_O
