Description Jan 2nd 2007

(I fixed up the lines a bit... I thought the blurry would look better but had second thoughts.)

EDIT
The original journal of Nez's has some serious miss-communications. She's edited it.
We spoke and are going to try and fix things. But this doesn't change the feeling or imagery in the picture, as Quetzal hasn't even seen Yasa in long over a year now (closer to a year and a half I believe). She's has become distant to all who knew her, and tends to mope about in sadness. (Easily noted by her absence from all DC rps as of late. I've described her a few times off on her own, moping.)
I've frequently pictured her sobbing to herself in the darkness over her missing husband. This picture was actually that mental imagery brought to life by recent journals.
But Nez and I will have to figure out something.. for these two can't go on like this.

(Original posted message)



I know, it's a sad picture, but I feel very sad. I've kind of seen this coming for awhile. It's been ages now (at least over a year... much longer I believe) since my dear friend left the Draik Clan, and then neopets. We tried to keep rping when we could, but not being on the same sites made it difficult.
Each attempted rp fizzled and was lost.. and for the last while, although we're still friends.. I love Nez to pieces, we have drifted apart a bit.

But this also sort of messed up our rps. So she (rightfully) decided that it's time re-vamp her characters. But she's going to 'reboot' them and start over. Sort of erasing everything that happened and starting with a blank slate.

Sadly I can't take part in it, as I can't just erase years of rps from my characters. So even though it's chokingly hard but instead I'll have to put an end to the relationship that Quetzal and Yasa had.( And I've been depressed as hell over it. It's pathetic that I've wound up sheding tears over my rpg characters.)

So my Quetzal, who is both a DC and neopets based character (more DC then neo.. she doesn't even look like a neopet), will be going through a hard time.. as her Yasa is definately gone. The choice to re-start was the confirmation that thier story is over.

I wish you the best Nez! (and don't for a second think that I'm angry.. just heart-broken over what was lost.. but ready to rp it and welcome the emotional opportunity and change for my character.) And I so hope that Yasa's re-boot works out perfectly for you. Just know that Quetzal will be heart broken, and will mourn him for all of her long years... as well as the two hatchlings that I own will weep for the loss of thier Otto-san.


For those not in the know, that is thier wedding picture that Quetzal is clutching.

And just to add in, this is where the title of the image comes from. I kept listening to this song as I drew the picture. I don't know if it's easy to find. The singer is a Canadian artist from the east coast (and I adore her music). But I typed out the lyrics.


You & Me
(Kim Stockwood)


Three am,
I'm wide awake again.
'Cause you're everywhere,
And I'm like your prisoner.
Don't you care?
Baby don't you care?

That every face that I see,
Every cup of coffee,
Every song just reminds me of you and me.
Every naked body,
In every late night movie,
Everything just reminds me of you and me.
You and Me.

Souvenirs,
Is all that you've left here.
Just your winter coat,
And that sweet poem that you wrote,
And the heart that you broke.

Cause every face that I see,
Every cup of coffee,
Every song just reminds me of you and me.
Every naked body,
In every late night movie,
Everything just reminds me of you and me.
You and Me.

'Cause every dream that I dream,
Every breath that I breathe,
Every time I smile I think of you and me.
Every word that I speak,
Every thought that I think,
Everything just reminds me of you and me.

Every face that I see,
Every cup of coffee,
Every song just reminds me of you and me.
Every naked body,
In every late night movie,
Everything just reminds me of you and me.
You and Me.

It truely is. He never recovered from it. He stays to himself now, taking care of his little brother and staying far away from people he knows.

Oooooh, I hate it when that happens. I have a few friends who can do that to me. x__x;

Well, it does make for very good rps. Once for my birthday he did up this huge, emotional, traumatic rp for one of my favourite D&D characters. It left me sad and moody for days, but so happy to have had such a wonderful story!

Very true. They do always seem to make life better if you know that the storyline is so interesting that it might even make a great novel.

Nez got ahold of me and wants to try and figure something out as she's not on neo or the DC any longer (so there is no common ground for them).

So there's hope at least.

That's really sad Pooka. I know they were together for a long time and had such a good history and family...it's a really really sad thing to see happen.

*Cuddles Queztal or well..tries to*

You know, it's rather ironic but last night I just sent out two mails to break off two of my own draik pairings do to lack of seeing each other and rp and one freezing. Tsugi and Xar are now separated as well which is pretty sad for me.

Maybe we should gather the draiks with lost loves into an rp so they can weep and eat their weight in cookies...

Anyway, I will be interested to see how Quetzal and her kids get along now.

PookaWitch In reply to malkavia [2007-01-03 07:10:15 +0000 UTC]

I've had to do that with other characters. Once that 'last spotted' note on the look-up vanishes I tend to give up hope.
I'm realy sorry to hear about Tsugi and Xar. I guess that it's been a long time coming though as he has been gone forever. *hugs*

And if she should hang around with anyone to grip, it's my lupe Iron_Cant_Bite... he's already been there for more then a few people after break ups. (Just be prepared for Tsug to gain a few pounds by the time he's gone. ). He mostly gets them drunk, singing songs to make them feel better etc.. basically throws a party to forget their woes.

Nez did get ahold of me, and the journal was seriously miss-communicated. I just wish that I had heard about all of this before it was posted in a journal about Yasa becoming single again. *sighs* We're going to try and figure something out.. but she's not on either neo or the DC, so they don't realy have a means to be together.

The picture is still very, very suiting for her mood over the last half year, Yasa and Quetzal haven't even spoken for about a year and a half now.

It hasn't been as long as a year but....Kay comes around in short bursts for about a month every 6 months and that's it, and then vanishes off the face of the earth again *Sigh* Not really good for rping at all.

Lol. Maybe a few drinks and some gained weight is something the Tsugi can use....then she'll have her headache and extra pounds to mope over and get rid of instead.

I have to admit I was curious as to what would happen to Quetzal and Yasa with one owner off DC and Neo...I assumed though maybe you two caught each other a lot online.

Iron is good for that. ^^ At that rate two of your characters may be recieving his 'buxum beauty' award that's showing up on his next page. lol (Yes.. Toggles wins an award for being rotound. :wink

Not really, I haven't really had a chance to see Nez around much. We've bearly spoken in awhile now.. save for a few quick notes here and there. :-/ It's why Quetzal has been absent from rps for the last year and a half.. as I didn't know what to do with her. (And she's been so sad she's started to molt. She's a little vain about such things and won't go out in public without a good reason.)

malkavia In reply to PookaWitch [2007-01-05 20:15:06 +0000 UTC]

Lol! First time Toggles will have ever won an award for her pudge-pudge x3 Tsugi would find herself jogging before that point though..even if she was eating chocolate and weeping while jogging.

Anyway yea I noticed Quetzal had been away from any rps for quite a while now...she should come out for a cheering up rp >3 Well you know...once she can get her feathers to stay on a lil better!

Awww...How bittersweet...It's a very beautiful picture!
It's like my Hissi, LadySerpentineDemona's lover...Except the problem was that my friend couldn't access the account he's on, but stopped playing Neopets. (Mostly anyway...)

Nez quit neo and the DC, so the two haven't even spoken in long over a year now.
But Nez got ahold of me and we're going to try and figure something out. These two were just too emotional and in-depth characters to give up on so easily.

...I can identify with this. Sort of. Though it's really with the whole situation more than the picture itself...

I would explain, though there's no need for me to take up so much room on the page.

I'll just favorite this instead.

I sent you a note to explain a little more in detail what I'm trying to accomplish and hopefully correct what I see is a misunderstanding from bad communication.

The picture is still very suiting though.. as she has been sobbing to herself in longing and loneliness while Yasa hasn't been around.

Aw, that's so sad ;-;

I know how you feel. For me, the only real way I can rp a character is if I know their personality from experience, so my peppy characters show more of my peppy side ect. My characters end up being a bit of my personality, so I would be crying as well.

I also know what you mean by characters being a part of you. I've gotten mopey and strange for days due to rps with my husband where something sad happens to an emotional character.

Nez got ahold of me and wants to figure out some way to keep these two together. It's hopeful now.
But she has been this sad for awhile now, as she hasn't seen him in long, long over a year.

I'm guessing that the two of them that are mine will mourn thier father. I don't know what Nez has planned for the other two.
