(Right to those who know me in real life please don't say a word about this post until I announce it myself over facebook, which will be in a couple of weeks so don't worry but keep it to yourselves for now x) Right so I just wanted to do an update on whats going on at the minute, I am in the middle of editing my "Body of Fire" book as part of the Zodiac Chronicle's series I have been planning for ages, and fingers crossed this year I will be able to get it finished and have a publisher look at it, preferably before me and my partner go to Kitacon this year here in England. We were also going to go to Alcon, unfortunately we have had some news (good news mind) that means we will be unable to make it to said convention in 2015.  About a month ago me and my partner discovered that we are expecting a baby, this wasn't planned however we are very excited at the prospect of becoming parents. It wont be easy as currently we both live with our parents but we are in the middle of looking for places to live, I am getting my drivers licence, and basically just getting everything set up, we have about 7 months now to get everything sorted out so fingers crossed this will be ok and we have plans set in place for after the baby is born so we are thinking about this A LOT lol x ANYWAY Yes FoolsOfTook which consists of  ShadowRam (me) and StormCrow (Josh) but now we will have another member to our little family and I couldn't be more excited (Although I could do without the aches and pains of what it means to be pregnant, urgh) BUT doesn't matter, be worth it in the end x

Hi Dani, I don't know if you are planning on going to Alcon this year but a bunch of my friends and myself are going to it for a Dragon age weekend. And I have decided to play Solas, and for the Ball we are doing the Inquisition outfits (Oh what a joy to make that funny metal helmet he wears lol!) If you are going would love to see you there!

Akjashjhfjsjdvksd YES GOOD.

Alcon is where I'll be debuting my Cullen cosplay :D And chances are I'll be him all weekend because he's a beast of a project xD (also getting a lion onesie for reasons...)

And omg I totally want to do Cullen's ball outfit *_*

Body of fire - Snippet

Corrie gazed in utter astonishment, his words lost in his mouth, the Temple was beautiful beyond anything he had seen in his life time, Father Caelum chuckled lightly to himself. "We let people pray to which ever gods they see best fitted to them here, it doesn't matter to us what they follow" the Father smiled gently revealing the lines of his old withered face. "But isn't faith in one god suppose to unite the people?" Corrie asked. "Most Magus do not believe in a deity at all, our guardians are real but they do not wish to ascend to godhood, so we try to teach our children that sometimes faith isn't always the answer" "You're saying faith in a god shouldn't exist?" "No, humans will sometimes need faith to believe, it is that belief that binds us, makes us who we are and brings us together, if we believe in something it sets our hearts and souls to rest and unites us, even if that belief is only in the guardians themselves and nothing more. Humans need something to believe in and that is more important than any god"

So I just watched this film for the first time tonight and thought it was AMAZING! Honestly I thought it was just fantastic! However I come onto tumblr and all anyone seems to make of the film is that is wasn't historically accurate, they "whitewashed" one of the characters, they should have changed the ending, there shouldn't have been any Hollywood actors etc etc etc etc BLAH BLAH BLAH!!! I don't give a crap! You know why? Because I was more focused on Oishi and his story, he wanted revenge for his master and knew what would happen should he seek it out, but even in death his loyalty to his master as a Samurai, heck, all the samurai following Oishi as well were all so inspirational to me. You do not get that kind of loyalty in the 21st century and honest to god it really was interesting to see how much of the actual culture was portrayed through this film, because believe it or not there was actually a lot of it. Sure they got bits wrong but what film doesn't, what people don't see is the message that this movie represents, the story, A REAL LIFE STORY, took place which was the inspiration for the film, and honest to god I don't understand the need to hate on it when it has such a beautiful message of loyalty and honour that most of us will never truly understand. Honestly I love this movie, and if anyone tells me it's wrong to love the message that it gives then expect a round house kick to the head, because I didn't watch it for the white guy or the romance in the story, I watched it for the samurai so loyal to their master that they still give up their lives to avenge him, and if that isn't a beautiful story then I don't know what is xxx

Zodiac Origins comic update x

Hey guys, thanks for the support with the comic resently, its been very much appreactated x As you all //should// know i dont draw the comic, that would be my dear friend Drei ( http://aegisdea.tumblr.com/ Please go check her out)

She has had a rough time with uni projects and other things resently so just go tell her how much you love her work, and ask her about “Beating the odds” too, trust me, you’ll enjoy that x

Well when things settle down we will be continuing the comic, the prologue will be finished first, then more character sheets will be made before we continue the story, at least by our last convo that was the case, but the rest of the chapters will be done in black and white to hopefully have more frequently updated comic xxx
