Description is a trendsetter! XD She made an Inuyasha piece called "Kagome Is", which is not only well-drawn and funny, but supports one of my favorite things--canon. Firestar loves canon and will always support that which is ACTUALLY IN CHARACTER. Anyway, the idea was contagious and other artists made similar pieces for other Inuyasha characters. Eventually, it spread to other fandoms, such as Metroid and The Phantom of the Opera. I believe is doing a Danny Phantom piece, and she was nice enough to point me in the direction of 's "Character Is" journal, where she graciously leaves the project open to anyone who wants to participate. That can be found here: [link]

So here's my "Sam Is" piece. I think Sam is a really cool character, so hooray for her. I also think canon is awesome. Hooray for canon! *throws confetti*.

This was done in a B pencil and colored on Photoshop Elements, and it seemed to take forever, but Firestar had plenty of time this week to work on it, since she now is distinctly lacking a job. XD

Thanks to for opening her project and giving me permission to do this, and thanks to for bringing it to my attention! Hooray for cool people. XD

Sam Manson, Danny Fenton/Phantom, Dash Baxter, Tucker Foley, and all related elements belong to Mr. Butch Hartman; the "Character Is" project is the brainchild of ; this "Sam Is" piece belongs to me, Firestar9mm.

Yo! I see you and my cousin AnimalRescue14 got into an arguement. Well, well. Now, you listen here, pal, you do NOT argue with my cousin! Okay? I swear to freakin' god, if you argue with animalrescue14 again...Well...It doesn't make you a very good person, now does it? We were sitting here talking about how pathetic you are. 24 AND YOU STILL WATCH CARTOONS LIKE DANNY PHANTOM! Ha ha ha ha! And another thing...Do you even have a job? If you're goth, then you must wotk somewhere "Dark and dreary"... Firestar, do you like barney, or the teletubbies? Because you seem to like other kids shows.
Now, this is just a warning. You leave AnimalRescue14 alone or I will bug you for the next 10 years. Oh, yeah, and she was right, sam isn't goth.

*sighs and folds hands in the guest-speaker expression again.* "Yo" yourself, hon. You don't need to tell me to leave AnimalRescue14 alone--I'd never even heard of her until she came here and picked a fight with me. I wouldn't go out of my way to seek her out. All she has to do is leave me alone and trust me, she won't hear from me.

I wouldn't have had to be strict with AnimalRescue14 if she hadn't come into my gallery and talked smack on one of my pieces without any provocation. That's how bullies behave, and I put a stop to it. I am not afraid of her, or of you. If people come into my gallery and misbehave, I will not tolerate it. This is my place and I am keeper here. All your cousin has to do is behave herself and such action will not be needed, and I'm sure I told her as much. It's hardly for me to be impolite to people, but I will not allow people to be rude to me or talk badly about my hard work or my beloved friends the characters. That is unacceptable.

To answer your questions, yes, I am twenty-four years old. Yes, I love cartoons like "Danny Phantom". I am goth (and so is Sam, by the way; the point of being an individual is to do what you like because you like it, which is what she does, but it's besides the point anyhow) and I do have a full-time job, and I still have time to write about and draw what I love. That doesn't make me pathetic. It just makes me Firestar.

I'm not afraid of you, kiddo, and I don't take kindly to threats. Sling your brush back up the road, or I shall be forced to report both you and your cousin for harassment.

Whoa whoa whoa! Hold the phone! Listen, I'm not the artist, she is, so if you report anyone, report me. My cousin lives to draw, its all she ever does, so don't report her. Listen, she is NOT a bully, that was my idea to get her to write that...I wanted to bug you, and she helped me. She didn't beat up anyone, that was a LIE that I made up.
Did you say, your friends are the characters? Dude, DP is a show.Do you know the voice actors or something?
Anyway, she'll stop bugging you! But if she gets banned, I'll be mad! It's my fault...Ban me...BAN ME! The show will go on without me! You won't take me alive! (Don't ask) You really aren't the sharpest tool in the shed, either. Seriously, you wouldv'e kept this all to yourself rather than blab about it to everyone. (Yeah, I saw the website)...You're one sick, twisted person, you know that, with your little "Old enough to" speech. Seriously, there is a part you didn't need to include a certain part in it.
Nevermind. My cousin and I will leave now, cause we give a fuck about our accounts, we don't want them banned! Damn adult!
I bid you farewell!

Well, congratulate yourself for the trouble you have gotten the both of you into, then. I hope you are proud of yourself. You have earned the reward of falsehood and belligerence, and perhaps a small lesson on consequence is in order.

The characters are my friends--they are there when I need them, they have helped me through trouble, and they are always ready to cheer me up when I am feeling badly. I can't think of a better definition of "friend", and you can mock it all you want, but they are my friends. I couldn't create art for them or write about them if I didn't feel close to them.

I don't recall "blabbing" about anything; my galleries and blogs are my own and I am as honest there as I am here. If you're referring to the fact that I refused to take you and your cousin's abuse with gentle good humor, I really feel I can't be blamed for hanging a malcontent up by its flame and I will not apologize for being truthful. I do not deserve such ill treatment and I give no quarter to those who treat me badly. Should I feel flattered that you've stalked me around the internet like a common troll? Go find something to do instead of dogging my footsteps. Maybe you could draw something--this is an art site, after all.

You're not so tough when you're up against someone who's not impressed with bravado, are you? Your backpedaling is shameful and you have done yourself no honor here today. Tell your deceitful tales to whoever meets you at the place reserved for cowards.

Sorry to disappoint you, since I don't hate either of you. As I said, I don't know you well enough to do that. If you're so worried about getting banned, you might try behaving yourselves, or using this site for its true purpose, which is art, and not lame internet trolling. Go find something else to do, for I will no longer be responding to your childish inanity.

Okay, That's a little harsh..."Lame OC"? Jeeze, makes me glad that I don't make OC's for DP. My feelings would be hurt. :< Sam's a great character- I love her lots like any other DP fan might/should. Guess this isn't a very good picture if a said person is into fandom.

I respect your admiration for Canon fanfictions/art. Even I consider the fact that my favored odd pairings (extremely odd) are incorrect/strange in many ways. But it's times when I see some art that write out the words "IT'S SO WRONG" (figuratively) for anything OCish or fandomish that makes my gut churn. I'm sorry... It feels like this comic was trying to give the message that this should be the way things should be for everyone in contrast to fandoms.

Sorry, I'm just lacing out my concern. This comic did have humor, the 4th panel was funny. I don't much imagine Sam to be emoish either. Truth be told, I don't think I've ever seen someone make her into an emo. And I like Sam's dress in panel 2.

DinKelion In reply to DinKelion [2007-08-14 23:59:49 +0000 UTC]

Pardon the terminology, I assume to much.

I don't doubt that you've come across some pretty sour OC's, but I'm sure not all of them are. I'm sure but not positive because I don't actually read a whole lot of DP fanfictions with OC's at all, for the sake of probably avoiding the said 'lame OCs'. Haha, it's funny how you decide to call it stealing. Truth be it, any kind of fanfictions not followin' a Canon would be stealing a said pairing. And even still, I doubt that should be any concern with you, since all you have to do is not read an undesirable fanfiction. But lets move that aside...

Laddie buck? Okay, I'll take your word that finding a good OC is very hard to come by. I'm not saying at all that your comment is 'unfair' just a tad controversial. It gives other people who adore OC's (most usually their own) a flare to bark at you for your own opinion. Which is why I never state who should be with who in anything. Safer to shurg then to say no, and quiet frankly, I respect Butch's canon characters (a lot), but I enjoy reading/writting odd pairings, whether other people find a pairing wrong. I show my respects in art, by drawing his characters, or trying.

I know now that you weren't intending to imply that 'Things should be a way for Everyone' merely that your image gave me the idea that you were. And I know what the title of your picture is... But what Sam is is not a lame OC, so there is no real need for the comment 'Lame' at all. And yes yes, I know you already said that you've found one too many lame OCs, but like you also noticed, not all of them were bad. It's not a matter of being proud and not shying away, it's being absolutally accurate on your statment.

I'll be sure to alert you of any terrible OCs, but I doubt I'll even begin to read a said Fanfiction if Sam ended up dieing out of the blue.

*Squints* Yes, I believe this is cleared up... It seems to me as if you've just taken care of my comment like a trail... I don't know if I should feel offended, but my apologies at least, if this conversation is redundant on your behalf. I'm sure (again) that you've encountered some people with more... enthusiastic concerns of the similar likes.

I'd imagine trying to make that dress would be very hard. I haven't been near a needle and thread since I was in 9th grade. And with good reason.

*props chin on hands and puts on her guest-speaker expression.*

I think you're misunderstanding the definition of "fandom" vs. "fanon".

Fandom is the love a group of people have for a certain thing.

Fanon is the misconceptions and the incorrect facts or not-quite-canon trends that inevitably spring up when such a large group of people all focus their attention on the same thing. You're talking about "fanon", not "fandom".

And yeah, kiddo, most of the so-called "original characters" I've encountered, across all sorts and conditions of fandom (and I am a fan of several series with positively corrosive fandoms and have been at it for several seasons), have been lame. Totally, utterly, and completely lame. This isn't to say that there aren't some original characters that are well-written and don't steal the story from the canon cast. There are, and sometimes I find them. When I find such a character, I'm quick to hand out praise because I know how hard it is to do.

But let's face facts, laddie buck. A lot of OCs aren't "original" at all, and I could waste both of our time presenting lots of evidence to support this argument. I won't do that, though. Suffice it to say that it makes my gut churn when I see some fanbrat taking a wonderful story and doing a disservice to it because they've got some kind of inferiority complex or esteem issues, and then, insult to injury, have the nerve to say they're being "creative".

Especially not in the DP fandom. Every single overly beautiful, ghost-powered DP "OC" I've seen that has tempted Danny away from his friends, his family and his ghost-fighting duties has never been the least bit "original". They've just been the author. Period.

And everyone comes screaming to me that "it's not fair" of me to say such things because people want to write that sort of thing. Well, I don't think it's fair of me to get an earful just because I'm a canon fan and I like the story the way it is. I'm proud and fierce to strike a blow for everyone like me who just plain doesn't want to read about beautiful Sues who turn the canon characters into daydreaming, monosyllabic, drooling lobotomy patients and take over all the action with their super awesome powers and plus-ten sexiness.

My mentor says: "In Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet fall in love and end up dying. If I change it to Romeo and Jules, or have them live happily ever after, it's not the same story." The point is, if I love a story, I love it just the way it is. If people want to change a story to the point where it's positively unrecognizable, then they should write their own story, make up their own setting and their own characters. They are free to do so.

I would never say, or even imply, that "THINGS SHOULD BE A WAY FOR EVERYONE". What I will do, though, is never be dishonest or shy about what I think is the courteous and honorable way to behave. Also, this piece is called "Sam Is". This is what Sam is, and what she's not, period. And the minute you see her kick the bucket so some "original character" can step in and take over her rightful place at Danny's side, you give me a call. *chuckles.*

*smiles, folding hands.* Hope that clears some things up for you!

Thanks for the kind words on the dress. I made that up myself. Tried to sew it once, but these paws are clumsy with needle and thread! I did have a lot of fun making this piece--I tried to be as stark as I could, cause I've seen some pretty bad fanfics and they hurt my little head and made me want to knock some sense into people.

*smiles.* Nah, don't feel offended, mate. I don't mind being controversial--means I'm thinking. I've just heard a lot of bilge from people and I always just like to make myself really clear about stuff. I deal with everything in order so I make sure I cover all the points I want to make, that's all.

I think I didn't explain myself right at one point--when I said "steal", I didn't mean anything to do with pairings. I just meant I've read about a thousand and one fics where there's some girl or guy OC who's suddenly got ghost powers too, and do we really need another one? It's "Danny Phantom", not "Sudden Mystery OC Phantom".

Sure it's safer to shrug than to say no, but for me, it's not necessarily truer. Being neutral doesn't mean "not taking a side". It means "not acting". Truth is, everyone's got an opinion. I'm not afraid to say mine right out loud *^_^*

Yeah, dress was wicked hard--the scraps are still in my closet somewhere. *chuckles.* That was a funny week.

I am neutral. But that doesn't mean I don't act. I draw, I write, I enjoy other's work. But by acting, I suppose you mean by supporting a selection of pairings. I guess my way of acting is accepting, but I doubt it's noticed. Thank yeah for the chat. It's been interesting.

I have never heard of Ophelia Ramirez, I can't be bothered to decode your grammatically incorrect abbreviations, and whoever your beloved character is, she is not the subject of this piece.

I didn't need to come up with "something better". A true campaigner can use any weapon in battle and make it work for her and she doesn't need to use excessive force. Only the clumsy green recruit uses an iron hammer when a dirk is sufficient.

Asking for forgiveness is not a free pass to misbehave. There are no disclaimers for behavior, good or poor. And there shouldn't be.

I actually feel rather sorry for you that you equate such things as goth and punk to the stereotypes so unfairly associated with them. A little research will show that there have been several studies and articles that illustrate how incredibly supportive true goths and punks can be, having a healthy respect for their own diversity. Anyone who's loud about it and uses it as an excuse to be divisive doesn't really want to celebrate themselves or anyone else. They just want to make themselves feel important. I wish I could find the article I loved best--it'd probably open your mind to a few possibilities if you read it properly. Apologies for not being able to share it at this time.

I don't really think arguing for the sake of arguing is funny at all. It's a waste of time and doesn't benefit either side. Especially here--this place is not a forum.

Well, arguing is fun, and I don't try to make myself feel important, I try to make others feel worse!

How incredibly shortsighted, immature, selfish and boring of you. I can only hope you someday learn that you do yourself no honor by behaving that way, and that it is worse for you than it is for them. I also hope it doesn't take a vicious overdose of your own vile medicine to reveal it to you...

...but that's highly unlikely.

Oh, yes, I am very egotistical and immature. And what's more, I don't care. It doesn't hurt me, I've made people at school cry by insults alone, and I didn't get in any trouble for it.
Truthfully, I was only correcting myself, as I had said "I won't EVER make fun of a character again"...I will definetly make fun of characters, just not to you.
Another thing, with all due respect, I don't think that anyone will hurt my feelings by insulting me as I did to them. As I said, certain things hurt my feelings, an example, ANIMAL CRUELTY! It may actually be the only thing that really hurts my feelings.Comprende?
Sorry, um, what is highly unlikely? The fact that I'll never refrain from saying mean, hurtful things to people? Or that no one will ever be brave enough to stand up to yours truly?

Oh, there'll be plenty of brave ones to stand up to you, marm, don't worry about that. You'll meet them soon enough, I think. And only a fool mistakes courtesy for weakness.

Regardless of how selfish or cruel a creature is to others, I would always hope that they didn't have to be subjected to the results of their own evil deeds in order to teach them a lesson about it, but evil begets evil and so I am sure you will be repaid tenfold for all the hurt you cause. What is highly unlikely is that you'll learn your lesson before someone inflicts unneccessary evil on you.

I am highly accustomed to the blowing of windbags. Your bravado does not impress.

Evil? I am not evil...And what the heck is a "Marm"? Listen, People are scared of me, I am not, nor will I ever be scared of them.
I am not trying to impress anyone...I try to do the opposite, actually. And, like, what's the big deal?
Some people are scared of me, not everyone. Only geeks and losers at school. Okay, none of them are brave, and...Agh, headache...Nevermind I'm done with typing for now...Have a great day!

Shortened form of "ma'am", shortened form of me trying to keep my patience with you and your incredible obsession with yourself. Like, the big deal, like, is that it's not okay to be, like, vicious and cruel to others. But I'm sure a bigger bully than you will cuff you soundly on the muzzle soon enough, and it's certainly not my responsibility to teach you the error of your ways. Now sling your brush back up the road and go play, little one, let the big girls actually draw or write something.

Excuse me? I can't draw? And are you making fun of the way I talk? (And 98% of other teens)...Okay, FRIG OFF!
Are you saying someone will punch me? Allow me to tell you a little story... When I was 12, a 14 year old made the mistake of kicking me. I hit them so many times it started to sound like applause. The kid hasn't gone near me since.
I don't have an obsession with myself. I have an obsession with SUM 41 and Disturbed, comprende? You seriously need to take a chill pill...
And don't make fun of people who say "Like" every 5 seconds. LIKE LIKE LIKE LIKE LIKE LIKE LIKE!!!!!! There you go, your majesty!

Go back and reread, kiddo. I'm not making fun of you at all, simply expressing an interest in getting back to my work. I never said you couldn't draw, but you mustn't be doing much of it if you felt the need to come back and try to get a rise out of me again on my own piece, when I thought we'd settled this matter two weeks ago when I told you to mind your manners.

*sighs and places notebook to the side.* Let's see if I can't make this any more clear for you, I'll go slow: you made a rude comment on a piece of my artwork. I told you to behave yourself. I had thought we'd settled it. Then you show up again glorifying the idea of pointless argument and crowing about how tough you think you are two weeks later. I politely said I had no interest in arguing with you over nonsense and that it isn't nice to fight with people needlessly, simply suggesting you might want to rethink such inconsiderate actions at the risk of reaping the rewards of thoughtlessness and cruelty. How am I supposed to see that as anything other than confrontational behavior and try to defuse it as such? This is my gallery and those who come here will behave themselves.

Whether you choose to heed my advice or not is not under my control, nor do I care, but I will say this again: I have no interest in hearing you brag about how tough you think you are. It is very sad that you define yourself by stereotypes and what music you listen to, which was evident from your very first rude comment in which you revealed you had no understanding of the gothic subculture or any subculture, let alone an understanding of how to behave like a decent creature.

Now begone and leave a nice girl in peace to do their work. I have no interest in continuing this inane, pointless conversation.

Yeah, I'm not goth, I am punk...And I behave the way I want to behave!
BEGONE! You remind me of something from InuYasha, which is a good show, mind you!
Listen to yourself...Its always "MY"..."My" gallery, "My" artwork..."My" fifth grade reading level...If anyone is obsessive about themselves, it's you!
I have no understanding of the gothic subculture? OF COURSE NOT! I AM NOT GOTH, I AM PUNK! You're one to talk, you probably aren't goth either, plus you're old! Now, make me proud and stop acting like someone from the middle ages. If you don't, I hope you get buried up to your neck in tar!!!!!!!

But you're not...going, are you? Shall this miko nock an arrow to her bow and speed you on your way? *^_~*

Yes, I'm goth, because I like it and the clothes fit nicely. Yes, I'm old--old enough to know better, old enough to have seen blood and guts and make it through, old enough to know how to be respectful and courteous while still getting my work done and my point across. Yes! This is my gallery--you are the one who has come here seeking trouble, for our paths would never have crossed had you not called me out, I assure you. You were not invited in, but I take time to be courteous to all who walk this way in peace. However, you trespassed into my domain and spoke ill and continued to harass me regardless of how politely I asked you to cease, and so now I am chasing you out. Take your ill will and bad manners into some other creature's domain and leave me be. You have earned the reward of your poor behavior--you are no longer welcome here.

Begone, while you still have a skull. I hope you find a place more suited to your particular brand of nonsense.

Dude, what the heck? "While I still have a skull"? Technically you can't knock my head off, for this is the internet. You are old, I dread the day I turn 20! Let alone 24!
Now, I wouldn't call this "Harassment", that's a little harsh. I was merely stating a fact, and that is: I will not refrain from telling people my horrible opinions just because you didn't like my opinion.
That is what I meant. I've been a horrible little girl and everyone should hate me!
How about that? I suck, I am stupid! Is that what you wanna hear???!!!
Yeah, that's what everyone wants to hear from me! Putting someone else down is a way of making yourself feel better, which is what I've been doing!
You wanna hear this: I am stupid, I am dumb, I deserve to be decapitated!
There you go!

Putting someone down doesn't make you feel better. It makes everyone involved feel worse. That's all I've been trying to point out to you. You're just poisoning yourself behaving like that, and then when you do get to be my age, you might find out that you don't know who you are or what you're good at, because all you've been focusing on is how to make other people feel bad about themselves.

I don't wish for you to say anything detrimental about yourself. That will solve nothing. And you are entitled to your opinion. But if you don't like the opinions expressed in my artwork, believe me, I'm not pinning you in place making you like. But I will never agree with your opinions or your methods, and for the last time, you are wasting both our time perpetuating them here. You will not change my mind. And you're not very polite in expressing them, which isn't going to impress anyone and will only make you the target of ridicule and the prey of those more graceful campaigners.

What I want to hear is a little bit of common sense. If I cannot have that, the sound of your feet carrying you away from here will do just as well.

Okay, putting MYSELF down is not my thing. I was being sarcastic. So you won't agree with my opinions? I hate animal abuse, so you must like it.
Do you really think I give a darn if I am wasting your time? No I don't.

Your sarcasm doesn't translate very well then, I fear.

I'm very against animal abuse. I love animals and think cruelty to them is utterly wrong. I don't even eat most of them. Only fishes.

I found the link to that article on goth subculture. Maybe you'll learn something, I did. [link]

For the 50000000000000 time, I am not goth, I am kinda punk-ish...
So you're a vegetarian? I tried that until my parents forced me to eat meat again...I still hate it...Seriously, I am just gonna leave you alone...I don't feel so superior, cause I have a headache, I just got my nose pierced and it hurts, and dad just called yelling at me.
I'll read your article thing, I guess.
