No clue. As I see it, I have two more posts, the first of which I have about halfway started. Not my best work, though. Needs some revisions. The last one (the one you're waiting for) has been milling around in my head for the past few weeks. I wanna make it really good, so I'm working all the dialogue out before I sit down to type. I'd like to say "soon", but with work being what it is...
...I'll have to say "eventually".

Couple things about the revelation in my last post:
1) This is the big part of Tobias's attitude (along with his g/f's death)
2) Yes, the child is Lucky.
3) I have no current plans to bring him into the current story or the one after, it's just something I'm setting up for down the road.

Ohhhh... I remember Lucky. He showed up in one post back in the first story, right?
Grimm: I like your use of Kristofer Schanz. "Little ghost," indeed. Reminds me of a scene in Moore's SWAMP THING #50.

Thanks, man. I was mainly working from your descriptions in the character profiles. Didn't know if I was up to date, but I figured I would give it a shot. (I still have yet to read #2-5 of the "backissues.") You know, I think I stole that "Little ghost" line from Neil Gaiman, but it's ok, cuz he probably stole it from Alan Moore in the first place. ![[devil]](graemlins/devil.gif) Grimm runs out the door as hordes of angry Sandman fans begin rioting. ![[Wink]](images/icons/wink.gif) Grimm what in hell does me mikey robbie mean?

In the main storyline I'm pretty much going off the cuff, also. Just getting an idea and running with it and hoping it makes sense and that I get the characters right.

No, you're right, Grimm. Now that you mention it, I do remember that "little ghost" line from SANDMAN, the issue where he confronts Hector Hall, who is dressed up as a yellow-and-red heroic Sandman. The "Original Darkness" seen in Moore's SWAMP THING #50 actually said, "little thing" instead of "little ghost," but Gaiman was probably influenced by it.

Both were great issues.
That´s right folks, writing the stuff that comes to mind often results in the best work (or so a writer has told me anyway), one uses instinct, and the first choice is very often the right one.

Sorry I haven't been very prevalent inthe story, so far.
I already warned you guys, though, about how I have to ration my time nowadays, because of school, and the like. But, now, I have an even greater challenge to my writings. I'm trying to quit smoking (again). It's been two days. And, by now, my head hurts, I'm coughing tar, and I could dig through solid fucking brick for a cigarette. Grimm knows how much I generally smoke, so, if anyone, he can understand I'm bouncing off the walls right now. Anyway, it's going to takemy body a few more days for my blood pressure to equalize, and for the nic-withdrawal to kick in full-swing.
I know this is for the best. And, "Malvana" is the major basis for this change in my personal habits. But, god, I cannot tell you just how fucking wonderful it is to pound this keyboard, fire and lightning shooting from my fingertips, all the while a trusty smoke lodged firmly between my teeth. Shit, Pro the character IS me when he's smoking. I always had him light one up in a story everytime I lit one in real life, while writing it. This is going to be tough.
Anyway, just a ramble/excuse/explanation for my somewhat "distant" writing style, right now. Give me a week, or so, and I should be back on track. Oh, I must go ahead and apologize in advance, though, just in case I get on here during a serious withdrawal session, and bitch like an ass. Ask Grimm. He knows my withdrawal-temper.
Anyway, thanks for letting me ramble guys. Wish me luck with this.

Sorry, people. I've been really busy lately, and I haven't had a chance to continue that Griffin subplot yet or anything else. Plus my writing is split between here and the Five Earths Project of which I'm an archivist and writer, so when I'm writing here, my writing suffers there, and when I'm writing there, my participation suffers here. Y'know?

I got tied up with "real world" stuff, new comic day, friend's birthday yesterday, taking care of my ankle, also chatting with people online, and doing some online promo stuff for a band. Chatting with Pro/Turkish about the story, and just being a lazy bastard.
