Yes, I do already own a bean.
I am currently a one-bean owner.



Image
Hello Patches, I am Charin!




Image

Image

Soul loves her boys.
They are the world to her, and even
though Dustin is a grownup now with
a wife and child to call his own, she insists
on family dinners on Sundays so that her
family stays as tight as it was when
Dustin was still living at home. With
Poseidon still living in the family jam,
Soul feels much more so at peace than
she would if both of her little boys were
grown up and moved out, but she still insists
on the family dinner. She "claims" that its in
order to in sure that Dustin and Poseidon grow
up like brothers instead of feeling like more so
distant family members, but everyone in her
family can tell that its because she misses her
little family all being togethor and loves it when
the whole family (including Dustin's wife and
child) intereacts.


Image

On that first night when Dustin
brought Akari home for dinner,
Soul has to admit that she had
no idea how to react. She at first
felt that Akari had the potential
to pull her tightly knit family
apart, and at first Soul felt
threatened that there was
now another female in Dustins
life, but then Soul began to feel
connected to Akari. She began
to think that Akari was just as
much as part of the family as
Dustin. She feels like Akari is
the daughter that she never had,
and she even loves to go out
shopping with her
now-daugher-in-law. And
now that Soul has a
granddaughter? She should
be feeling old, perhaps like
an old lady, but she feels
just as young as ever! Soul
and Akari are extremely close
and they hang out togethor
(much to Dustin's awkwardness)
and go shopping for new items
for the (then expected) recently
born baby. Soul completely dotes
on Cecila, just as much, and
maybe even more, than Dustin
and Akari. When Dustin and
Akari go out togethor to dinner
or just want some alone time,
Soul takes Cecila back to her
and Zisk's jam to take care of
her. Soul is excited for when
Cecila is older and she, Cecila,
and Akari are in equal numbers
as the boys in the family.

Image


Soul and Zisk are the loves of eachother's lives;
they always have been. They love to be togethor
and do things with eachother, like go to the
beach or fly a kite. They occaisionally need
a break from the hectic lives of their kids,
so they have a special spot on a hill in a local
nature park that they love to go to just to get
away. They just sit back, advoid the drama of
everyday life, and watch life go on. Soul loves
to just lay there for hours and hours, where
the only thing that she can hear is the sound
of nature and Zisk's breathing. She hears the
deep "in" of a breath entering his lungs, and
then a forceful "out" that could sound like a sigh,
yet is not. She listens to that sound and slowly,
gently falls asleep to it. Zisk's breathing is her
favorite sound in the world, because it reminds
her that they are alive, they are together, and
that they are happy.


Image
Here is a summary of Soul's personality in a few words.
*Alternative
*Loyal
*Aspiring
*Protective
*Excited
*Wacky


Image
Soul is a bit of an alternative bean. She loves accessories, but she wears them in ways that are considered "strange" or "unintended". For example, the beaded string that she wears tied around her head? That was a necklace. She wears a bandana around her back left ankle, which is considered extremely strange, because who would wear it on their ankle, and even worse their back ankle? She also talks differently on occaisionally. She perfers to say "funner" than "more fun" and often creates adjectives of her own. She is extremely protective of her family and will defend it from anything that will stand in its way of being tight knit. When Dustin was growing up and he brought his girlfriends home she would often act strangely in hopes of scaring them away, but she stopped when he brought home Akari because she found out that Akari was nice and well suiting for her family. Soul is often overly excited about the strangest things, and has been quoted to say "Dustin!! Look at that!! What you say?! That flower! Over there! No, over there! Dang it, you missed it." She loves just plain old living life, and tries to find something good in everything. She is extremely optimistic in the worst of things, but she will break down occaisionally when under pressure.


Image

Sport?

I would have to say track would be my favorite sport.
I enjoy running and jogging. I don't know why, it's just
thrilling to me to be going fastly paced on my own.
Its just... kind of liberating :D

Food?

Banana bread. For sure. Hands down. Its delicious,
enjoyable to bake, and best of all it has bananas in it!

RIght handed or Left handed?

Leftie for sure. I know it seems kind of strange,
but it jsut comes more naturally to me.

School Subject?

I would have to say art was my favorite subject.
I have never really been that good at math, or
very affluent with different langues. Nor have I
been good at understanding science, so I would
have to say Art is my favorite. It jsut is so
expressional, and it speaks a language
taht anyone can understand if you
understand what I'm saying.

Drink?

Tea. It's calming and soothes my mind.

Musical Style?

I love all kinds of music, especially Rock and Classical.
I understand that those 2 are completly different things,
but i just love them both so much! It would be cruel to
force me to chose.

Song out of your Playlist?

Ughh, that is such a hard question. I reallly love the song
"HOme" though.

Animal?

I would have to say Armadillos. They are so cute! And
they just are so interesting looking! A small animal
that curls into a ball? I'm officially sold. Thank you very mcuh.

Body part?

Eyes totally. They are just... theres so much expression that
can be found in them. I mean, I just find eyes mesmerizing
and beautiful in so many ways its impossible to give an
acurrate statement.

Color?

My favorite color is definitly a shade of dark, deep blue.

A Note to the Readers
This story takes place in Soul and Zisksu's earlier life as mates. It takes place in the early years of a new family where there are often problems and frustration of dealing with the newborn Poseidon and the older child Dustin, so please understand this while reading that their relationships are not the same as their relationships now.
Thank you and enjoy.

~/~

A wind blew far off, not where this scene is taking place, but far off. A wind blew somewhere, someplace, but not here. Somewhere, not here the rustling of the trees is all that can be heard, and the quiet movements are only caused by the birds and other animals born of nature. But here, none of that is present. Here, now, there is no wind. There is no silence that is only broken by the sounds given birth by those of nature. Here is something different.
~/~
There is a room, which is adjourned with thousands of cooking utensils, all are relatively new, so this room can be assumed to be a kitchen. A relatively new kitchen. In this kitchen there is the cooking tools previously mentioned, a relatively new table which is extremely nice and made of hard wood, and it stand out in the room because of its niceness. It contrasts to the rest of the dull, gray walled room, because of the rich texture of the wood. This table, considering the surroundings, can be assumed to have been a gift. Around the table there are 4 chairs, 3 of which seem out of place next to the beautiful table because they are just simple plastic stools. There also is a child's chair, which currently has a sleeping bean in it. Into the serene quiet yet not that quiet setting of this room, there steps in the female of the house hold, whose name is Soul. She walks over to the counter to a suprisingly clear area, assuming the clutteredness of the rest of the kitchen.
"God," Soul sighs. "We are out of bananas again. Who keeps eating all these bananas? We need the bananas for Poseidon, hes not old enough to eat anything else." She sighs and then looks over to the resting bean in the high chair, who is not as asleep as he was a few moments ago. Soul realizes this and then also with the sleeping of the bean, goes away her few moments of peace.
"No, no, no Poseidon, we will get you something to eat! Don't worry," Soul is saying while clearly getting scared that her baby will begin crying. "Please don't cry! I'll go get you some bananas from the store in a bit!" This outburst does the exact opposite of calming the baby bean down, and he immediately begins bawling his eyes out. Soul looks around with an exhasperated look, she has no idea how she is going to handle this.
"God no!!! Poseidon, honey, please stop crying baby, please. Mommy's going to get you some more food. Just trust me!!" Soul picks up the baby bean out of his high chair and puts him in her pouch and begins to stroke him softly.
"Please baby, hush hush, if you cry you will become tired." says Soul while trying to calm Poseidon down. It seems to be working, and the baby bean slowly goes back into his tireless slumber.
Soul hears the screen door from the back of the house slam, and she flinches and immediatly looks back to the baby currently sleeping in her pouch. She sees that her baby is still as still as a log, and she sighs with relief. She gently takes the baby out of her pouch and sets him back in her high chair just as her beloved mate comes gently walking into the kitchen. She motions to him to go out, and he quickly back out of the room and Soul follows him into the next room.
"Zisk! We are out of bananas! What am I sopposed to feed this kid if we have no food that he can eat?! Did you think of that when you were eating all of the bananas?! We had a whole bunch this morning!" She angrily shouted.
Zisk, her beloved mate, replied, "It wasn't me! It must have been Dustin. He was complaining this morning that we never have anything to eat in the mornings. Its not my fault that we don't have enough food to feed our children!"
The moment the words left his mouth he knew what he had said was a mistake, and his mouth hung open with feelings of wanting to say something, yet not wanting to risk making the situation worse.
Soul stares at the floor for a moment, and then she looks up and walks over to the front door and leaves.
Zisk is left there with his mouth hanging wide open, and his other son, Dustin walks in. He can hear more crying from Poseidon in the background and he already knows what is coming.
"Dad, Poseidon's crying again. Where's Mom? I can't find her anywhere," said Dustin. He looks to his father with wide eyes, both full of fear and confusion.
Zisk finally realizes what he must look like, to his oldest son, standing there with his mouth wide open. Zisk quickly shuts his mouth and quietly sighs to himself, "God, help me."
"Dust, you mom... she went out for a bit. She's probably getting some more bananas for lil Poseidon in there. For now just help me," says the tired father.
~/~
Soul is sitting in a parking lot in front of a local 7-11. Her eyes are red and the patches of fur that is beneath her eyes is soaking wet from tears.
"God help me, I just don't know what to do anymore. I love Zisk with all my heart, and my kids are my life, but I just can't cope anymore. It's too much.
She lays on the ground next to a mailbox and stairs at the ground. The clouds are threatening rain. Tired of being scared for the day, she stares at the ground in front of her.
"I just.... I can't handle 'this' anymore. No, I can't handle this life."
She watches a young human couple riding on an old beat up motorcycle roll into the parking lot. They park and laugh. They just stand there laughing, being happy. The male laughs, and the female pokes at him. It seems as if time stands still, and Soul remembers the days when she and Zisk were like that, before the stress of having 2 children to feed and care for. Then suddenly she shakes her head.
"You know what? Your a tough little girl," she says to herself. "Yes, you and Zisk used to be like that, but look at those 2. They are just dating. They aren't mates who have 2 kids. You would be unhappy if you and Zisk were still like that."
Soul continues to look at the young couple until they leave, once again on the old beat up motorcycle. No, she would not be happy like that. She would always feel the longing for children, to move a step up. Yes, life as it is now is compicated and frustrating at times, but is she happy? Is she deep down inside happy with her life?
"Yes," she whispers. "Yes, I am happy."
~/~
Zisk heard the door creak open, but he did not go running to see who it was. He knew who it was. When he did start going to meet her was when he heard her footsteps enter the kitchen. He walked through the doorway into the kitchen and saw her setting down a bunch of bananas, which filled the uncluttered space on the counter. She looked back at him and smiled.
"I got some more bananas," she whispered softly.
He said nothing, walked over to her, and enveloped her in his arms.
"I'll always love you, and our family, whether we have bananas or not."
~/~
Note to readers
This next scene takes place several months after that incident. Yes, there was more frustration in that time lapse, but they are still a healthy, happy family.

~/~
And now we are back at that place. The place where the wind blows and the sounds given birth by nature thrive. We are back at that place the was formerly not here, yet now it is here. Here we are, in the place where the wind blows, and the rabbits run. Where the birds sing, and the deer run. We are in that unreachable place, that became reachable.
~/~
Soul and Zisk are laying on their backs in the leaves. The grass gently touches their backs, and softly becomes a cushion. They are happy, and all they can hear is each other's breathing. They hear the "in" 's of the air rushing into the other's mouth, slowly going to the lungs, and the "out" 's of the same air gushing out. They hear the flow of life, and the beating of eachother's hearts. Nothing is said; there is no need. There is nothing to say. They are one and togethor. Their children, they know they are safe and frolicking in the nearby dandelions, causing the seeds to blow in the wind. They are happy. Their family is happy. And they will remain happy. Because everything is alright and part of life.
"I love you," whispered Soul.
"I love us," he whispered back.
~/~
End Note for Readers
This story explains that even though in a new family there will be tough days and times, you will continue on. Just because one day is frustrating that does not mean that you are not happy. Frustration is just part of being in a family, and in a family you are happy. This story includes the ending where Soul and Zisk (Zisksoulsu) find their place where in the future they retreat to. This place is a small hill in a clearing in the local nature park.
Thank you for reading!

My plans for this lovely gal are more that simply draw her (Which I do fully intend to do also, as I
consider myself a growing artist with major plans for improvement ^u^). I fully intend to roleplay
as her, draw her and her family, and make sure she is never abandoned. She would (of course)
have a place in my character's page, where my other JBD, Chayuyu, already resides. I would
take great care in making sure that her page expresses her personality, shows an accurate
family tree, and showcase all of the art I will slowly but surely create/order of her. I understand
that now 3rd breedings are allowed, but Patches, I will leave that choice entirely up to you, as
I personally do not feel an urge to breed her anymore, as she already has 2 adorable sons and
1 granddaughter. I feel that yes, another Zisksoulsu child would be adorablubs, but I also feel
that maybe she should wait a while before having another child. Therefore, the decision to breed
them a 3rd time is completely your decision Patches. I can't wait to roleplay as her in the fanclub's
chat if I do win her. I understand that I am not considered a "regular" in the chat, but I do come
on as often as I can, which is primarily on weekends, breaks, and occasionally in the evening
after school. If in any case I do not have time, I will do my best to make sure I make time. I
would make sure that she and my other JBD, Chayuyu, are friends. Maybe not the "best" of friends,
as Chai (friendly nickname for Chayuyu) is male, and Soul already has her heart sold to Zisk, but
there is no reason they can't be friends. Drawing Soul will certainly be one of my favorite past-times
if I win her. I already know that soon one of my sketchbook's pages will be filled with her beauty, and her personality will certainly tell a story. I will definitely make sure that no matter what, no matter how busy I
get, how long I've had her, or how many other JBD's I win, that she will never be abandoned, and
that she will always have a place among my characters.

As a small child
I was quick
And bright
Not saying that I am
Smart
Or Wise
Yet bright I was
I could know how
Cruel the world could be
And while also being so full of love
And beauty

At first I realized how
Beautiful it was
How pretty love was
And the colors of life
I also knew how cruel it could be
How at the touch of one word
Things could hurt
And yet how the same touch
Could heal

This is how I learned
That even though
Things are different
Somethings
Are just tinges of others
Floating on a breeze
They are the same
Except they have lived differently
Breathe by other means
Have been other places
Accepted different gifts
But the one thing that they all accepted
Was the gift of life
This gift that binds us all together
Is accepted by us all
And given up when our time has come

I have learned that sometimes
Things are different for reasons
Because if they were all the exact same
Life would be boring
And the gift would no longer be accepted
