Literature is my Utopia.
Here I am not disenfranchised.
No barrier of the senses shuts
me out from the sweet, gracious
discourses of my book friends.
They talk to me without
embarrassment or awkwardness.

―Helen Keller




There is no friend as loyal as
a book.

―Ernest Hemingway




A good book has no ending.

―R.D. Cumming




Books are the quietest and most
constant of friends; they are the
most accessible and wisest of
counselors, and the most
patient of teachers.

―Charles W. Eliot




Let books be your dining table,
And you shall be full of delights
Let them be your mattress
And you shall sleep restful nights.

―Author Unknown




Books let us into their souls and
lay open to us the secrets of our
own.

―William Hazlitt




A reader lives a thousand lives
before he dies, said Jojen. The
man who never reads lives only
one.

― George R.R. Martin, A Dance
With Dragons




[I] read books because I love them,
not because I think I should read
them.

― Simon Van Booy




The only thing that you absolutely
have to know, is the location of
the library.

― Albert Einstein

Personality:

Inkwell is the definition of a book lover. Her hobbies include reading, writing poetry, reading, and more reading. She prefers her books over Jellybean interaction. She often uses big words, sometimes confusing other dragons, which just adds to the list of reasons why she hardly talks to others. One thing on the list is definitely not because she is shy, oh no! Her tongue is sharp as a knife and quick as a falcon. Inkwell is intelligent, just as any lover of books would be expected to be, and is quite observant.

History:

Inkwell was hatched into a fairly small jam with no siblings, so the only companions she had were the picture books her parents sometimes read to her. Before she was taught to read, Inkwell often stared at the brightly colored pictures and made up her own stories. She sometimes would even gather up all the jam members and tell her stories to them.

In her teenage years Inkwell's bookshelves began to run out of room so she started putting her books in some of the most obscure places. The wardrobe, medicine cabinet, sock drawer, and everywhere else you can think of were occupied by books within a few months. She had even made a "reading throne" out of some of them. Inkwell has always treated books like they were her best friends. When she felt sad their hard covers (she never liked paperbacks) would open up into a world where she could forget all about her problems. She respected them, enough to even gasp and try to comfort the inanimate objects when she found a tear or a wrinkle in one of their pages.

Inkwell doesn't have a history of reading out loud. She prefers to keep the words kept between the precious pages to herself. Although, one time, when she was reading a story to some younger Beans at the library, something happened. It wasn't much, just a small rodent with large ears, the children didn't even notice it. Inkwell took it home with her that day to study it. She had never seen such a creature in any of her books, except for the one she was reading to the little Beans. Could that be it? Did her voice really bring the animal forth from the pages into our world that which we call home? No. It was impossible. Then she looked at the rodent. Its eyes were glazed with fear. It did not belong here, and Inkwell knew it, but the truth seemed impossible. She must find out though, so she headed to her room to test this insane theory.

Favorite:

"Oh, for you are being far too unspecific, Form Maker. Alas, I shall answer the best to my ability (leaving the actual writing of my dictation up to my narrator, of course)."

Favorite song? That's easy, none. Inkwell has never enjoyed much music besides classical pieces, but even then she still thinks it's a large waste of time.

Favorite book? Now that's a hard question. Some that she likes are Treasure Island and Eragon, and Peter Pan helps cheer her up when she's feeling bad, but with so many other great stories out there it's impossible to pick a favorite.

Favorite movie? Oh, don't even try to ask that question, because the only answer you'll get out of Inkwell is "I cannot pick a favorite, nor can I think of a movie that I have even enjoyed. In my opinion, books are always better than their movie counterparts."

Home:

"Oh, miss, you must define this question before I may answer."

You may have to define that, first. If you mean where she lives then I would say that Inkwell lives in a mountainous taiga area. If you mean What does Inkwell's house look like?, I would tell you it's an avalanche of paper. If you meant What is her home?, then I would go by the overused saying Home is where the heart is and tell you that she just about lives in the library.

I do not claim to have written/own the rights to any book and/or movie mentioned in this post.

Name: Lotus Caerulea. I chose this name because her design reminded me of a Blue Egyptian Water Lily, but Egyptian Water Lily seemed far too long, and not very catchy, so I chose Lotus, because I think they're quite similar. The name itself means flower, which I think makes plenty of sense. Her second name Caerulea, comes from the Latin name for the Blue Egyptian Water Lily, which is Nymphaea Caerulea, so I thought that would be beautiful.

Personality:

A piece by Aixra~
When you first meet Lotus, she seems quite one sided and shy, but when you meet her in detail, you find that she's actually got quite a bit of depth to herself~
History:
Lotus was brought up in South Korea in Seoul, her parents were Buddhists and wanted desperately for their daughter to be the same. Luckily, Lotus caught right on to the religion, and was instantly as dedicated, maybe even more so than her parents. She spent all her spare time studying the Ripitake, or The Three Baskets, whcih is a collection of all of Buddah's sayings, thoughts about them, and rules for Buddhist monks. It is called that because it was originally written down on palm leaves and collected in baskets. For meditation, she would practice Karate diligently and concentrate deeply on perfecting it. She also learnt, quite early on, that she had quite a talent for artistry and writing haikus. For example, she wrote 'A small Blue Lotus, Floats through a small blue river, On one simple path.' However, her real interest was art, and by the time she was 14 she was drawing detailed art, based around Buddha and her religion, but she has never really made any sort of career out of it, despite her talents. When she was 20, she left Korea for America, even though her language wasn't great. Lotus wanted to spread education on her religion more in a new country, and decided that The US would be the country she would choose, because the language was so widely spoken. She picked up the language fairly slowly, but eventually, she made it and was speaking fluently, however, she still, to this day, has a Korean accent. She still tries to educate people about Buddhism, even if it isn't quite as much as when she first arrived. She currently works as a Religious Studies teacher in a school. {283 words}
Favorite:
Let me start off by saying, Lotus is a very dedicated Buddhist. Every year, she will go over to Korea to celebrate the Seoul Lotus Lantern Festival. The Seoul Lotus Lantern Festival celebrates the birth of the Buddha some two and half millennia ago. In the weeks leading up to the festival, over 100,000 brightly colored lanterns are strung up along many of Seoul’s streets on both sides of the Hangang river. The biggest festival events occur on the street outside Seoul Jogyesa temple, in the heart of downtown Seoul. Over the weekend, thousands of people gather to participate in free “experience events” and to enjoy stage performances starring monks clad in colorful robes. Lotus absolutely loves all of the colors and costumes that you can see at the festival, and it makes her feel closer to Buddha. She enjoys dressing up and fully joining in with the celebrations. It is favorite, however, not because of all the colors, lanterns, costumes, or even that it is named Lotus, like her, but the fact that it celebrates the birth of Buddha, and it makes her feel that small bit more dedicated toward her religion. {195 words}

Lotus has a crush on her friend here, Tezzy, but she is sure he doesn't return her feelings, so for the moment, she keeps quiet about them.
Home:

Lotus doesn't really consider her main house home, she feels that 'home is where the heart is' and her heart is firmly set in the art studio that she built in her garden. It is the same color blue as her fur, and the interior is just full of things that reflect her personality in every way possibly.

Question; do we have to do all art or all writing or can we do art for one section and writing for another?
I think they have to all be one, but I just wanted to make sure. cx

She was so happy to tell everyone, but she thought too late. They made even more fun of her now. Her friend Candy was always there, but didn't stop all the pain. When Allicia was 11, Candy was 13. She was under aged and deaf, as the other Jelly Beans put it. When She turned 13, she was old enough to leave school. Candy was long gone, away with her other friend Faith. Faith was Allicias enemy, one of the 'maker funners' she's put it. When Allicia was 15, she had full hearing, everything stopped. Bullying, harrasment, name calling, everything. She still chose to keep her mouth shut and stay alone. She read while she was alone, whiteout Candy, Without friends. She ached for a nice friend, any color, shape, or size.
