Dinosaur Delirium [Dec. 14th, 2009|09:19 am]
[Tags|, , ]
[Mood | happy]
[Music |none]

The creature towered above us, motionless and head held high; its mouth a menacing grin with row after row of dagger teeth glistening in the afternoon sunlight.
“Beautiful!” I whispered “That thing could tear us in two.”
“Yeah, amazing.” Evil said, tugging me away from the life-size aluminum Allosaurus and towards the bus stop. “It’s time to go.”
I sighed and followed him. Our trip to the Natural History Museum had ended, and so had my dreams of prehistoric monsters. Oh what I wouldn’t give to see dinosaurs dominate the Earth again! How wonderful it would be to see them marching across the landscape! An army of dinosaurs tearing down cities with their powerful claws as hundreds upon hundreds of humans fall victim to their terrible gnashing teeth; blood and guts seeping into the streets and splattered across the globe, as our dinosaurian conquerors laid waste to our sad excuse for a civilization—
Evil gave me a rude shove “Hey! Aren’t you listening to me?”
“Sorry.” I blinked, jostled out of my dinosaur delirium. “What was that you were saying?”
Evil snorted “Nothing. Forget it.”
Fuck.

[Mood | happy]

An creative writing piece from 2007, I think. It's probably the only first-person short stories I've written voluntarily. Yes, I'm that jaded.

When I was fifteen I lived in a rather large neighborhood, just on the outskirts of Lancing, Michigan. The winters were much too cold and snowy to do much of anything, but the summers were ripe for exploration, when the nights were cool and welcoming and the darkness was filled with a multitude of flickering fireflies.

KFC-Based Revelation [Nov. 23rd, 2009|10:00 am]
[Tags|, ]
[Mood | contemplative]

When I first created Kacey, I saw him as timid and anti-social, a completely alienated individual who harbored violent tendencies and a longing for sunshine and wide-open fields. I pictured him living isolated with Festus at the edge of a rural town in a small run-down shack reminiscent of the coop he once occupied as a child. This Kacey was completely cut-off from human emotions and unable to understand motivations other than that of the baser instincts. In doing this I pretty much framed him as a poor, defective mute---more chicken than man, a victim in the scheme of the larger world and whose bouts of violence (that is, the ritualistic removal of hands) were a reflection of his feral up-bringing. This Kacey had no control over the things that he did. This Kacey was a powerless victim. A cookie-cutter poster-child of humanities’ cruelty. A complete and utter cliché.
The Kacey of today is a very different person. He’s good-natured and, although manic in movement, he’s pretty laid-back. This Kacey lives in the inner-city, a place where he’s surprisingly at home. Well, not too surprisingly, as it turns out. His father never did let him out of the coop to run free with the chickens. Kacey never had a taste of fresh air, never felt the grass between his toes or even the sun on his thin back. The only sunlight to speak of came from the cracks in the wooden coop and perhaps from a small opening at the top, but even then the shadow of chicken wire would have cris-crossed down on his scarred face. And the local authorities’ discovery of him would have not set him free; the city is a cage within itself, and Kacey would have felt right at home. Even the seething humanity would have not been startling to him. They’d be nothing but chickens. Kacey’s new flock. The same old pecking order. Kacey’s new handicap is no longer his upbringing but rather his inability to communicate. I feel that this newer vision of Kacey is much more empowered as he is now full responsible for his actions. Gone are the violent compulsion to mutilate (although he does retain his hand fetish...A quirk whose origins will remain largely unknown, as it is with the majority of fetishes in the real world) and the victim-complex. Although Kacey is still quite chickenesque in his actions, I think these adjustment to his character make him more, well, human. Isn’t that what every writer is really striving for?

...And now for a short and unsettling writing clip to illustrate my point:

Stepping into the living room, Kacey’s eyes were immediately drawn to the flurry of action at the foot of the couch. The movement mimic that of the Leghorn hen's back in the coop, one who had made the mistake of swallowing a monarch butterfly caterpillar. Kacey remembered clearly the pinkish foam that had spilled from her beak, and the way her legs and wings had thrashed about violently, kicking up feathers and feces. Kacey gawked, transfixed, as Jake repeated the hen’s performance; frothy foam issuing from the corner of his mouth as his body writhed and arched against the floor, a needle buried deep within his forearm. Kacey tried to call out to Shelly for help, but his voice stayed stuck in his throat, like the caterpillar’s quills in the throat of the hen. He would have to run upstairs to get her, but Kacey knew that by the time he reached Shelly’s room their friend would already be dead.

[Mood | content]
[Music |none]

I've been thinking a lot about KFC/Kasey lately. For example, I've been thinking about his hand-chopping fetish. It seems out-of-character to me. I don't think KFC would ever hurt anyone purposely for sexual purposes, be it indirectly or not. so I'll ax the chopping (hahaha) and keep the hand part.
I've also been itching to write a story for KFC but all I've gotten so far is background stuff. Basically stuff that happened before he was 24. Another problem is just the actual writing itself. KFC is mute for the most part. He knows very little language. He thinks in images and colors and emotions, not words. I have to use a lot of indirect characterization in order to accomplish things, and unfortunately indirect characterization just happens to be my weakness. Oi!

Just A Quick Update [Oct. 8th, 2009|01:51 pm]
Ahhh I've been so busy as of lately, but yes I LIVE!!

1) Been working on a website to sell my buttons on. It just needs a few more adjustments before it'll be readt to go.
2) Made a handful of new button designs.
3) Working on commissions for the first time ever (What, people want my art!?)
4) Actually making myself use traditional media 9markers, colored pencils, pens, etc)

And for once Evil is actually being nice. He gave me money and everything (which is a big deal, believe me).
I guess being put in handcuffs and kept in the back of a police car for 30 minutes will do that to ya.
Also, new logo. Cool!!

Writing Prompt #2 [Aug. 8th, 2009|03:46 am]
[Tags|, ]

Your character incites a vicious attack.
 

Strife silently stalks his way across the forest, sliding in and out of the dark trees. Entering the edge of the clearing he lifts his snout to the starry sky and inhales deeply. It's faint, but he can still make out the scent of others nearby. His blue forked tongue flicks out of his toothy jaw and he chuckles to himself. He hasn't eaten in days—and more importantly—hasn't had a chance to ‘play’ with his food.

Insert your character into a hostile high school environment. How do they react?


The bell rang for lunch and KFC quickly slipped out of his seat and into the hall. His black Doc Martins clicked on the tile below; his bright red mohawk bobbing rhythmically with each step. He stared intently forward, trying not to make eye contact with any of the other students. Stopping just short of the lunchroom, KFC took a deep breath.

KFC actually never attended anything past grade-school, but I figured it would be fun to see where this would go. I definitely need to work on integrating (or simply leaving out) sound effects into my writing. And COMMAS. I use them entirely too much!

Character Counts )
Alternative Forms: A dark gray anthropomorphic rooster.


Physical Characteristics

Height: 5'4" (not including his hair, which adds a good 6-8" to his height).
Weight: 110 Ibs
Race: Caucasian
Eye Color: Green
Hair: Currently dyed a bright red. Natural hair color is a light brown. Hair style is a fan mohawk.
Skin Color: Pale white
Shape of Face: Very angular. Pointed nose resembles his namesake animal.
Body Build: Long-legged with your basic slim body build.
Distinguishing Features: Body covered in scars with pronounced circular scar around both wrists. The former are from a rooster that he was housed with as a child, while the latter are the result of automutilation. Tattoo of a stylized chicken head on his right shoulder. Dark bags under his eyes that almost resemble eye make-up.
Clothing: Obviously punk-inspired. Wears a black feathered vest and tight, form fitting yellow-and-black checkered pants. The short-sleeved t-shits that he chooses to wear underneath his vest are usually red in color and feature either images of chickens, his favorite bands, or bad puns (i.e. dead chicks never say no, I am not a nugget, etc etc). Wears black Doc Martins adorn with spurs like those on found on cowboy boots, but instead of the classical spurs, they are cock-fighting knives.
As far as under-garments go, he wears red tighty whites (lol). His socks are white (nothing special here) and he also wears a very long and thick wallet chain (despite the fact that he keeps nothing in his wallet...Except maybe corn kernels or something equally stupid). His pants are held up by a black leather studded belt with a belt buckle that states 'BAWK'.
Jewelry: Remnants of a red bandanna wrapped around his left upper arm. Wears black leather cuffs with silver loop & dees held down by red leather in the center of each cuff. Sometimes wears a leather collar in the same style as the cuffs. Both ears are gauged with red plugs.
Make-Up: Bright red eye shadow.


Other Characteristics

Personality: Restless, hyperactive, impulsive, easily distracted (thoughts are constantly racing), socially awkward (with anything that's not a chicken, anyways).
Mannerisms: Rarely talks, but when he does his speech is rapid and rushed and he speaks in simple terms; It is very hard to understand him. He clucks silently to himself when thinking something over. Squawks when startled and generally makes chicken sounds. Strides as opposed to walks and bobs head slightly with each step. Cannot sit still for long periods of time and still manages to be constantly in motion when he does.
Spiritual Beliefs: None. Is unconcerned with religion.
Goals: All goals are short-term and revolve around the here-and-now rather then dwelling on the past or planning for the future.
Mental/Physical Illnesses: Mania with psychotic features (not to be confused with a psychopath as he is not lacking in empathy), partialism/fetishism (hands). Psychosocial dwarfism.
Likes: Chickens, hands, music (especially of the punk genre), straw (makes for a good nest).
Dislikes: Very large noisy crowds, anyone that happens to jump out at him, cows, being screamed at.
Fears/Phobias: Is afraid of canines and felines to a small extent. Major phobias include merinthophobia, or the fear of being bound/tied up, and haphephobia, the fear of being touched (more specifically, he reacts violently to being touched in a sexually provocative manner). Maybe agyrophobia, or fear of crossing the street (lol chicken jokes).
Favorite Music: Listens mostly to punk. Enjoys Lower Class Brats, Millions of Dead Cops, and others. Also listens to CoqRoq. His favorite song is 'Chicken Squawk' by Millions of Dead Cops.
Favorite Movie/Show: Doesn't have a TV, but would probably enjoy short animations that are nonsensical in nature and fairly short...I'm thinking along the lines of Aqua Teen Hunger Force.
Weapon(s) of Choice: Meat cleaver (used only for chopping off the hands of those he fancies and almost never as a defensive weapon), his wallet chain, boots spurs, and a smiley he keeps in his back pocket (a smiley is a cheap-and-easy homemade weapon. It consists of a bandanna---his is red---wrapped around a padlock that is forcefully swung at enemies).


Background/Additional Info

After the death of his mother, Kasey was confined in a chicken coop by his father from the age of 8 or 9 until the age of 16 (I chose 8 or 9 rather than a younger age so that Kasey would have at the very least a very minimal amount of language acquisition. Since he knew how to speak a little before being kept exclusively with chickens, he retained some language, hence the simplicity of his speech). He picked up various chicken attributes. Living arrangements in the coop consisted of a dozen or so chickens, himself, and a large rooster.Kasey was at the bottom of the pecking order and subject to various forms of aggressions from his flock, especially from the rooster who continually attacked him (hence the scars. They're from the rooster's spurs). His diet consisted of whatever was fed to the flock which was not very substantial (psychosocial dwarfism was the result of this. Kasey's body basically 'shut down' and stopped growing to deal with his nearly food-starved environment. When recovered from the coop at the age of 16, Kasey was at the weight and height of a 9-1\2 year-old ).

At the age of 16 Kasey got into a scuffle with the rooster over feeding rights. Kasey's father was home at the time, but seemingly unaware of (or ignoring) the commotion. The noise from the battle disturbed the neighbors who called animal control. It was then that Kasey was discovered, face full of blood as he successfully killed the rooster by using his teeth to rip open its neck. He was also scared out of his wits (not having had direct human contact for almost 8 years). Kasey was subdued and carted off to an institution for mentally ill and disabled children as he was highly unruly (it is assumed that his father was arrested). After about a year and a half stay, he was put into an orphanage. At the age of 18 he left the orphanage and was 'adopted' by two punk rockers (Shelly and Jake). He lived with the pair (Jake and Shelly were an unofficial couple) in a flop house. At the age or 19 KFC was hit by puberty (its delay was, once again, the result of psychosocial dwarfism. He was about the same weight/height of a 15 year-old and could easily pass for one). At this time, he gained his hand fetish (I'm not *to* clear on how exactly this came about but I'll work on it) and became attracted to Shelly. This was very confusing and disturbing for Kasey because Shelly was a highly maternal figure in his life. He ends up unintentionally killing her when he severs her hand (combination of shock and blood loss). Psychosis sets in.

Kasey's sexuality is highly ritualized. Sexual contact of any sort, especially being touched in a sexually provocative manner (on the hips, buttock, crotch, etc) or even implied sexuality unnerves him. In his mind, intimacy/love and human touch/contact has become so disconnected that it cause him terrible anxiety.
Despite all this violence, Kasey never intends to kill or even harm his victims (although he obviously does).
