No problem about the time taken I fully understand. On the picture though and, I really don't hope I come off as a picky asshole here, but Its not really what I was going for. I didn't want any changes to the original picture, no filters or tone/colour changes you know? I was just after a border. I see the bigger stripe across the top, now that I look at it, it seems you cut that directly from the calligraphy picture I sent. That was kind of an example of the brush strokes, I didn't intend for it to be used >.< I'm sorry if it seemed so.
I was under the impression that there would be some form of brush in Photoshop (or whatever program you use) that would look like calligraphy, and then you just had to draw around the picture. It seems I'm not aware of what I'm asking for, sounds like it might be more difficult than I thought >.< Ummm, I guess get back to me about exactly how difficult this will be (Like if there is a brush like that) and I'll decide from there where to go.
Either way I thank you very much for what you did do, I hope it wasn't to tedious or anything :S
Hm, I can redo it if you still want me to. As for there being so me kind of calligraphy brush, I could check the brushes I have saved, but that's assuming you still want me to redo it for you. If you don't, I completely understand. :)
Location: Halls of Beverly Hills High Time: Late into Lunch Period Interacting With Lilith Storm@Wintergrey; Sierra Jameson, Jocelyn Thompson @Dirty Pretty Lies
"Jocelyn Thompson huh?" An intriguing smile curved on his face. There was something minimally familiar about that name. He could have sworn he heard of it before from someone somewhere, but it wasn't coming to him. Truly, even looking at the redhead's face, nothing was jogging his memory. Oh well, not like it was that important. It was a nice, sweet name. It rolled right off the tongue; and it suited the way this girl looked. She looked nice and sweet.
While they continued to walk along the path that they were in, Alexandros felt his phone buzz. He opened it. It was from Sierra. It read:
To: Hades What the hell do you want, Mossos? We banged after the party and then you banged that British chick. And you stupidly expected me to be all faithful to you after a one-night-stand when you went around and fucked half of Beverly Hills' women. Is there anything else to explain?
As he finished reading it, Alexandros smiled, and laughed somewhat. She was right on all counts. He slept with someone else, so how could he expect her to retain any positive feelings for him whatsoever? It didn't matter that Alexandros may actually like her past the sex(fucking awesome sex at that) that they had on that beach. It didn't matter that Alexandros just happened to want more than that. He wronged her with Viola, so there was nothing he could do to change her mind.
To: Sierra, I suppose there isn't anything to say then. It's not like we had anything more than just that one night on the beach. Take care, Sierra Jameson. Say hello to Joo-Bear next time you are able. Ciao, Kitten!
As he would sent that, and pocketed his phone, Josie would ask Alexandros of his name. "People around here call me--"
THUD
And another thing happened. Alexandros suddenly found his shoulder being rammed by a readhead with very, very pale, white skin. Of course this being that Lilith Storm, the chick that's always hanging around Dominique's kid brother. Though her sudden burst of physical harm didn't really do much to Alexandros' shoulder, it still took him by surprise. Her comment that followed? Not so much. With someone who was as ...colorful as Lilith Storm, he expected nothing else.
"Candy Man? Really?" Alexandros made sure she heard him, even though she was already off her marry little way.
Alexandros grunted, his left arm on his right shoulder, gauging to see if any serious damage was done. There wasn't, but Alexandros could admit his surprise when he felt that it hurt slightly. Obviously Lilith had more punch in her seemingly frail body. "Don't worry about me. That Lilith doesn't have a lot of physical strength, but she did surprise me at how strong she was." Alexandros still was in a bit of surprise. He shook his arm a bit, shaking off the pain that remained. "In any case, I believe I was in the process of giving you my name," Alexandros said, eyes on Josie. "People around here call me many things, but my family calls me--"
Another buzz.
"Oh for crying out loud!" Alexandros annoyed, shut his phone off. He wasn't going to get interrupted a second time. "Anyways, the name is Alexandros Mossos. A pleasure, Jocelyn Thompson," Alexandros took her hand, kissing it like a classy gentleman. His blue eyes never left her eyes, a flirtatious smirk being shot towards her.

Sheeh, what was Alex's deal? How could he actually prefer that ape Sierra over the British Blonde Beaut, Violandrea Banks? He's obviously suffering some kind of head injury. Obviously he's mistaken. "I'll just let him cool it off. I'm sure he'll come begging for some more when he's over this fascination with that lumberjackess." Viola wasn't even going to bother with Alexandros. He would come back to her when he's back to his normal self. He always did.
After that was settled, Viola thought now would be as good time as any to make her way to her next class. The warning bell had gone off a while ago, and the last thing that Vi wanted was a tardy. She was one away from getting an on-campus suspension. That was the last thing she wanted. Nothing worse than spending the entire day(and forty-five minutes after the end-of-day bell goes off) in a room with possible, future rapists, and an old, smelly teacher who enjoys the troubled kids company. Something wasn't right with that guy at all.
Nearing her next class - which was Physics - Viola heard her phone go off in her pocket. Pulling it out, she received a text from her Joo-Bear. Her face lit up with a smile, and she licked her lips sexually.
"Oh Joo-Bear.." she smiled as she finished reading that text he just sent her. She started typing.
To Joo-Bear, We'll do something special later, away from that ape, and ALexandros. Just you and me, Joo-Bear. I'll even wear that outfit you love so much. ;)
As she pressed send, she was already getting all tense "down there". She felt herself getting all excited. The more she thought about what her and Joo were going to do later, the more she wanted to forsake the rest of the day. She kept walking, but that thought was kept in her mind as if it latched onto the part of her brain that obsessed. Because of that, Viola didn't have a chance to stop what was about to happen next!
CRASH
Viola was knocked on her ass. She yelped lightly, blonde hair covering her eyes, so she couldn't see who knocked her over. She heard him speak, but until she moved her hair out of her vision, she wouldn't see who he was. When she did, she made a sound of approval. Whoever the guy was, he sure was cute. "Oh, it's no problem at all," she said seductively. Viola go tup, dusting the dirt that gathered on her purple dress. As she finally got to her feet, she looked at the guy in front of her. She moaned, looking at him up and down. "So, what do they call you, handsome?"
Magic exists. Who can doubt it, when there are rainbows and wildflowers, the music of the wind and the silence of the stars? Anyone who has loved has been touched by magic. It is such a simple and such an extraordinary part of the lives we live.

►Name◄
Nessarose Myla Kipling
►Nickname◄
Nessa, Ness, Kip
Nessa started off as a nickname for Vanessa. Freya Kipling discovered the combination "Nessarose" through the L. Frank Baum's 1900 book, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. The character also appeared in the 1995 book titled Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West, by Gregory Maguire. One can say she is a big fan of the Wicked series, which eventually gained a 2003 musical broadway. She absolutely adored the name and decided to give her daughter it.
Nessa is open minded, she doesn't really care what people call her but nicknames that have been used in the past are the ones listed above.
►Birth Date◄
March 27, 2000 - Falls on Easter usually ( ♈ )
►Age◄
16
►Gender◄
Female
►Sexuality◄
To be honest, she has no idea.
"I come in different shapes and sizes. Parts of me are curved, other parts are straight. You can put me anywhere you like, but there is only one right place for me. What am I?"
►Relationship Status◄
Like her mind, she's open to possibilities but her odd nature doesn't make it easy for her to land a date.
"I’m always there, some distance away. Somewhere between land or sea and sky I lay. You may move towards me, yet distant I stay. What am I?"
►Sexual Active◄
Yes, no, you'll never know, unless you're the one to, you know.
►Team Color◄
Pink
►Years At Camp◄
Second Year
►In Depth Appearance◄
At 5'5", weighing 110 pounds, Nessa is a eccentric, British girl. Her bra size is 32B, though her boobs might still be developing (who knows). She has warm, brown eyes, and her skin is unscathed. Her appearances gives off a flower child aura, which is not too far from the truth. She's free spirited, playful, adventurous, and wants to have fun. If she comes off as 'sexy', that's unintentional due to her naiveté in sexual situations. Full of vibrant expressions and doesn't mind being someone's doll (model), her smile can brighten anyone's day. Her hair is dirty blonde, untamed, and dances with the wind. Occasionally, Nessa lightens her blonde highlights to give her hair a glowing effect under the sun.
Not thinking herself to be amazingly attractive but knowing well enough she isn't ugly, Nessa sports casual wear that can be both comfortable and fashionable. Dressing up occasionally is never a bad thing, but if she can wear a cute top with a skirt, a sweater, and maybe a hat if it compliments the ensemble well enough, then she would be golden. Even a simple summer dress with bare feet isn't something unusual for people to see with her. Not putting too much thought into her outfits, she tends to grab random things out of her closet and make it work. Surprisingly, her outfits rarely look bad. She's ones of those people who can make weird combinations work because her faux confidence makes people believe she's happy in her skin.

►Personality◄ Nessa likes what she likes, she'll say what she wants to say, even if her two cents do not matter to most people. To be strong is hard when everything around you is dark. She smiles and gives a little twirl, she'll compliment, and giggle, but her mind is full of complex thoughts that drive her insane. Nightmares are a common occurrence and though she doesn't jolt in her sleep, there have been nights when she wakes up and finds herself crying.
Dark nature is interesting, she loves to read books on the topic. To learn and take in. Her curiosity for the world will never die. Refusing to prevent herself on reading a good book, she will enlighten herself on any topic, may it be light as a feather or as heavy as an anvil. Lost in a trance and constantly daydreaming fantasies, her attention can turn away from the people she's talking to, drowning out their words, and enter the cold chambers of her mind. Although she comes off as bubbly, energetic, and extremely loving, there is so much more to her than what lays on the surface. A smile can hide so much.
A whimsical fairy that breathes in the world around her, including the toxin and the gloom. As if she's carrying the whole world on her shoulders, she will feel your pain when no one is there to share it with you. Loyal through and through, she will stand by her loved ones and make them feel not alone. If they are in the wrong, she will stand up against them, no matter how much it hurts. If only she could numb the pain this world gave her. Unable to turn a blind eye to those around her, she looks at everyone and sees beauty. Nessa is aware that not all people are good but... there's hope that all people have some sort of light in them. Right?
"We hurt without moving. We poison without touching. We bear the truth and the lies. We are not to be judged by our size. What are we?"
►Place Of Origin◄
Bristol, England
►Background◄
Seeing the worlds' colors, and absent of color, can take a toll on a child. Understanding concepts like death when she was far younger than most kids, who still didn't figure out that Santa Claus was a lie, Nessa believed, and still believes, she was a freak of nature. How else would you explain her father leaving her mother and her when she was only three? It was all her fault that Edison Kipling didn't want to love her mother, Freya, anymore. The young child scared her father away. She made him leave.
Books are a wonderful thing, you see. They teach a child about the world while letting them live through experiences without having to actually undergo such things. Her mother was the brightest flower in the world, whose optimism, threw many people off.
After her father left, Nessa and her mother flew to America to get far, far, far away from England where there was too much hurt and pain. Her mother had no one but her daughter, having lost all her loved ones a long time ago. The young girl knew she needed to be strong for her mother even if her mind told her she could never be good enough. If only Nessa's experiences in America was better than her short time in England. Her mother chose to move to New York, since that was where the world of Broadway flourished.
Attending school in a city where most people had a stick up their ass, Nessa was bullied by the majority of the girls in her class, constantly. Even her mother was being bullied by judgmental women because she was a maid for a living. Rather than backing down, Nessa scared people away by being strange. No one likes something they can't understand, right? If she was a freak, why not let her inner madness thrive?
Within time, her mother found a sweet, aspiring Broadway actor, James Stanley. They haven't married yet, but he's done wonders for the family. The blossoming girl also discovered that even the meanest of people had kindness, having stumbled upon one of her bullies crying in the school bathroom with bruises all over her body. She comforted her tormentors and... things settled down. Admiring her basically step dad, Nessa wanted to follow his footsteps and pursue a career in Broadway. She decided to spend a lot of her childhood studying, reading, practicing, and performing. Though as she grew up, she realized she liked writing far more than being in the limelight. The person who created the wonderful shows. There was plenty of time for her to hone her skills as a writer, since she's only 16.
When she was 14, she fell hard for a boy named Anthony. He wasn't a complete douchebag to her when they first met. They became close and he asked her on a date. Her heart jumped with excitement. But... that night turned into something she wasn't prepared for. Uncomfortable and in his car, he wanted to go all the way. Nessa was scared and told him she wasn't ready and... his expression turned incredibly sad. Heart-wrenching to see that because she truly cared for this guy, she didn't want him to hate her for saying no. He was preparing to leave but she decided to cave in. He loved her, yes? So why not go all the way? Well, long story short, once she gave him everything, he vanished out of her life the next day. Leaving her behind like her father did.
A freak.
Her mother saw a change in her daughter and decided to send her off to this popular camp in Los Angeles. Nessa was nearing her 15 birthday, so this would be her parents' gift to their daughter. It was good that James had family in the area too. A change was good for Nessarose. Being around new people, though still terrified of going through the pains of her past, she found some comfort at Camp Liberty. She liked it so much, she decided to go again the next year.

Other than what I said in Ash's C.S.: Drinking coffee, if that can be considered a hobby
I think that's the advantage of being co-gm is that you can approve your own character. :P
