username: rancidPoet
name: Lucille or Luci for short
gender: Female
what kind of relationship does this kal have with one of mine?: (600 words max) Despite the differences between them she's best friends with Ezra. Their initial meeting went something like this....
Luci was prancing around minding her own business. She closes her eyes, takes a deep breath, and just lives in that moment. That is until she abruptly stops, bumping into someone and nearly falling over. Aggravated by this Luci blurts out "What are you blind?! Watch where you're going!" The soft voice retorts "well actually I am blind, thanks for noticing. And perhaps you're the one who should watch where they're going." Luci turned bright red and tried to stutter out an apology, Felix however, just laughed. "Let me buy you some ice-cream or something to make up for it, please!" Luci begged. Felix agreed, and well the rest is history. The two bonded over their hard headed nature. Felix exposed Lucille to the paranormal world and all its mysteries and in return Lucille showed him the beauty and certainty in the world. His calm, quiet nature balances out her bubbly, excitable personality. His dark interests balancing out her light. The yin to her yang.

extra: (optional, 500 words or 1 art piece)
A pin up doll
But more than a pretty face.
A girl who wants it all
Made of barbwire and lace.
Doesn't know when to stop
Image
Image

But will never give in.
Going straight to the top
And melts you with that grin.
So soft and so sweet
But so strong and so tough.
Marches to her own beat
Knowing she's enough.
A girl who relies on her charm, her talent, her wit
And survives by saying that
"We can do it"

username: olivionary.
name: shania.
gender: female.

what kind of relationship does this kal have with one of mine?: Shania being rather socially awkward has had a hard time connecting with those around her. She always struggled to make friends, but since going to college she's gained some confidence in herself. Recently, she's began to feel comfortable around Camila, who she once jokingly called Chamomila, and may even go as far as to describe her as her best friend, quite the title as far as Shania is concerned since she struggles so much with maintaining friendships. Maybe it's the soothing scent of tea that lingers on Camila. Or maybe it's her motherly temperament that gives Shania a sense of security while in her presence. Or the glint that shines in her eyes when she looks up from her novels. Or maybe it's that she encourages Shania to not simply coup herself up with her music, television and video games. Shania just understands that she is at ease while lingering around the other student. Shania recently started studying Music and Film, two of her greatest passions in life.
Her interest in Psychology is limited, yet Camila can draw forth her attention and she could listen to chatter about Freud, Ainsworth and Harlow's monkeys for hours if wanted. Shania is sure that Camila does the same when she begins to talk too much about Music and Cinematography.
"Did you see that close up? And the use of sound when this happened? That was amazing!"
"You know the sound from that game we played last week? Yep, that one. Well, they made it by slowing down some guy shouting. Weird, I know. Look, I'll show you. I've already pulled it up on Youtube."
Shania works in a small coffee shop and will often bring Camila tea on her way home, bringing her new flavours and the occasional milkshake [Shania's favourite], just to mix it up a tad. She brings round video games of varying genres when she visits in hopes that Camila will play them with her, although sometimes she will settle for studying together and giggling over weird images inside their textbooks, or sitting together reading in silence. Or she may drag Camila to a charity shop so that she can buy more books while Shania buys more music, just so that she can listen to her talk about anything and everything on the walk.
Shania always buys Camila gifts, particularly for special occassions: Birthdays, Christmas, single on Valentines day. But will often show up with a random present just because she can. Frequently it will be at least a box of tea and a new mug for Camila, whether it was bought brand new or is a weird mug that she's bought from a charity shop varies. The quirkier, the better in Shania's eyes.
extra: The sky was already beginning to dim as Shania finished her shift at the coffee shop for the afternoon. Her hair was piled up into a bun so that it was out of her face and less likely to contaminate the food. In one hand she clutched the cardboard carrier for the two hot take away cups.
She walked along the darkening street as the street lamps light up, brightening the streets and reflecting their orange glow in the puddles that had settled onto the pavement the night before. She walked with her headphones settled on her head as she hummed along to the Rocky Horror Picture Show album. Her lilac hair dancing as she bobbed her head along to the music.
By the time that she had reached Camila's door the sky had darkened to a deep purple. Shania knocked on the door before waiting patiently, smiling widely as Camila pulled the door open. "Hey!"
Shania smiled, "Hello. I bought tea." She stepped inside and placed the cups down onto the table just inside the hallway, "But you may have to nuke them in the microwave, they're probably cold by now."
"As per usual."
Shania playfully stuck out her tongue as she wandered into the living room. "Someone has been busy?" She commented on the notes and textbook laid across the floor.
"I have a test tomorrow." Camila sighed as she headed into the kitchen with the two cups.
"Are you doing the history of everything?" Shania teased as she followed, her hand resting on the counter.
[Extra left unfinished due to time, sorry.]

    username: sydbee
    name: lyra
    gender: female
    relationship with a kal:
    it was a regular summer evening in texas, and lyra was working as
    a waitress in a small traditional american restuarant. after
    serving her last customer for the day and waving half-heartedly
    at her boss, lyra took a step outside. breathing in the humid
    summer air, she started to walk down the sidewalk, sighing
    to herself. what's the point, she thought. i'm never
    going to get anywhere working here
    . lost in her own mind for
    a few seconds, she bumped into a woman. stumbling back, she
    was quick to apologise. "oh, im so sorry! i wasn't looking where
    i was-" she stuttered, but was cut off by the woman; "no worries.
    hey! lyra! i cant believe it's you! i haven't seen you for years?"
    shocked to realise that it was imekari, lyra replied, "oh my gosh!
    imekari! i gotta run back, but it's so awesome to see you again!"
    imekari grinned. "y'know, someone once told me, if you really want
    something, you just have to go for it," she said. "no point just
    dreaming. life's too darn short for that." and with that,
    she shouted "see ya laters, lyra!" grinned, and walked off.
    it was such an incredibly strange encounter. lyra blinked,
    dazed from what just happened.

    lyra briefly started walking, but stopped, and looked down at her
    feet. maybe i can be someone one day. to this day, lyra
    has never forgotten what that imekari said to her. soon, she quit
    her job at the restuarant and found an job as an extra in films.
    now, lyra is working as a casting agent for a film-making firm
    in hollywood. just goes to show, there's no point just dreaming.

    life's too darn short for that.
    extra:

    lyra's diary

    dear diary,

    i cant believe they hired me! im a casting agent! isn't that just
    insane? i never thought i could be anything more than a waitress
    in a small town restuarant, but now im gonna be casting movies...
    amazing. anyways, i gotta go. i have a meeting with my boss.
    wish me luck! well, not that you can, you're a book... but,
    whatever!

    dear diary,

    it's the day after the meeting, and luckily they still like me, haha.
    all jokes aside, the want me to cast a tv show along with two other
    casting agents in a few weeks time. it's all going so fast, i can't
    believe it!

    dear diary,

    sorry for the really long break, i just finished the first day of casting,
    and i feel so... i don't know, important? i've never felt like this before,
    even when i was an extra. i just came back from tea with imekari.
    i guess what that imekari said to be back in texas really did change my
    life. ain't that weird?

    okay, everyone, i have decided the winner! firstly, i'd like to compliment everyone's forms who didn't win, because i thought all of you did an excellent job <3

    @ junkratss: ah i love that her inspiration was elvis! & that she had her own band, i really liked this idea!

    @ APH Siantia: omg i absolutely loved the relationship between the two of them! i think you captured quinn's personality perfectly in the story & it really made a smile come to my face! & the ending was adorable :)

    @ ɴᴏᴠᴀᴋ: can i say that i absolutely love your writing style, first of all? i love the relationship you built between letty & irving & that the fact she was dating his sister! & them writing books together sounded so cute, i really loved everything about the writing!

    @ Gadgetrocks: aw i love how even boreas & shannon had conflicting jobs n everything that seemed to still get along! i love that she was running an 80's radio station, very unique idea! :o

    @ Oreoskys: awww the relationship between these two were so cute! i love how caring you made her & how she would always be there for hiroaki, it made my heart warm! & the art you did was absolutely adorable, i really loved it!

    @ rancidPoet: i really loved how they met! you captured felix's personality quite well, haha. i also love that he showed her the paranormal world & she tried her best to make him enjoy the living world! comparing them as yin & yang was also really clever, i liked that! the little writing afterwards was also really well written!

    @ sydbee: ahhh i liked the relationship ime & lyra had! even though their last encounter was brief, i liked how ime could inspire her to go out & do the things she wanted! i also really enjoy the diary entries she did & i love how she got what she wanted in the end!

---


    while everyone had really nice forms, there were four forms that i really enjoyed the most & had the hardest time picking out the winner from these four ;n; i wish i could just give you all the kal because i would've really enjoyed developing their relationships more hnnng. (.paris., aello, skorch, olivionary)

    ---


      @ skorch: i absolutely love the coding in your form?? it's so nice & aesthetically pleasing?? it really caught my eye! the art you did was so damn cute as well, like ahhhh. i also really love the writing you did for your form, i think you also really caught Remy's personality pretty well in the story! he's a little thief haha. <3

      @ olivionary: i am in love with the relationship you wrote between these two?? literal friendship goals??
      omg. i'm sorry that the time limit cut you off from your writing, by the way, i would've really enjoyed reading more about them, but it was already really nice, even if the one story was unfinished! i feel like their relationship was really real

      @ aello: wow!! i absolutely adored your form. from the coding, to the writing, to the overall feel of everything like damn. the relationship between vertumnus & her just seems so real & like that would actually be a friendship between people, haha. you captured his personality pretty well! i also love that they never became anything but friends in the story, no crushes, no anything, just pure & innocent friendship, it was lovely. & them meeting back at the diner after everything was so darn cute. also idk why your form gave me lowkey stranger things vibes?? the story was set before then but idk haha. i also love that she wants to go on broadway!

      @ .paris.: wow, that moodboard though! i really loved the whole thing about it, i absolutely love moodboards if i'm being honest. your forms was one of the first ones i read, so maybe that's why i'm so in love with it haha. i also really love darker stories, like this one, & wow can i say that i actually felt my heart break reading your form?? like damn. you definitely captured quinn's personality perfectly with how she gets easily annoyed by the simplest things & just wow.

      & the winner is...


      olivionary!

      although you said you didn't have enough time to write the rest of their story out for the extra, i just couldn't tear the friendship you wrote for the main prompt out of my head! it's literal friendship goals, like i said before, & i would love to develop their relationship even more with you, if you would like that!! :) (don't be scared to pm me!) congratulations & thank you to everyone who entered into the competition, i really enjoyed all of your forms! <3
