I've been having a lot of personal problems lately. Not only did I lose my screen play outline thing for this, but my computer is acting up and when I tried to write I subconsciously tried to end the days like chapters... it did NOT work out well...

So I have decided to stop posting the NaNo until after NaNoWriMo is over. That way I can get the entire thing out without worrying about posting, and I can touch up stuff I would have missed otherwise.

... STILL SICK. This chapter is so late it isn't funny. I pray I can catch up soon but... eh.

This part is a bit lacking because I've been in bed sick for most of NaNo.

LJ, why must you not let me post? School, why must my work be so confusing? Body, why must you make me hack up a LUNG? It's like you're trying to stop me from doing this.

Many thanks to stitchpunk1 from the 9 Forum for helping me pick a name for 1! And a shout out to snowiweather with 6's name.
Because I wanted to boost my word count quickly I described all the stitchpunks in this part and added the little reunion description. Which is why it is kinda… comedic and sporadic in some parts.
And please keep in mind that this IS set after the movie, so 1 and 8 may seem a tad out of character because of their time being, you know, dead and all and stuff.
5's eye patch was hard to describe so just look up Fay from Tsubasa. His eye patch from later in the series was what I had in mind.
Also, yes 2's hair is possible. I had a grandfather with similar hair coloring. Plus, it matches his design as a stitchpunk.
And 3 and 4's genders? I usually like to think of them both a boys but... I changed things up for this. Because I CAN.
8's hair? Think Sokka from Avatar, just without the angle... can't really describe it.
And 6's description I completely took from a picture of my friend, and his last name was used. Except the eyes of course, everyone seems to depict human 6 with a gold eye.
Didn't mention height because... just imagine them at the same height (except for 2) as in the movie. Their heights are logical, personal experience says so! Statistics, logic... oi, my brain hurts... Ok, kept you long enough, do what you came for and enjoy!

( The biggest trick in NaNo history- Description, description, description )

... it is only 2 days, and a few hours, into NaNoWriMo and what happens? I get sick. Damn it... I would have posted this earlier but I kept falling asleep at the computer while I was trying, in vain, to type up Day 2. Instead, I'll just have to type twice as much tomorrow.

Oh god, I'm SCREWED.

( In which you see my horrible begining, confused human 9, and me being stupid to raise my word count. )

Because some people may be interested, here is my desktop for NaNoWriMo.


Warning, it is BIG. Because my screen is HUGE.( BIG image is BIG )
The icons are from the Lucky Star and Higurashi no Nako Koro Ni animes. The Rain Meter skin is Saya from Saya no Uta (awesome but disturbing visual novel). Got the wallpaper in the wallpaper thread on the NaNo site. I forget who made it...

Well, it's that time. It is officially NaNoWriMo!

To clear some stuff, I changed some information in the OC character bios. I found a much more fitting voice actor for Xavier and since I made mistakes in the Delmon sibling's entries I also edited them.

I decided not to describe the stitchpunks before had as 9 will do that anyway in Day 1. And it will boost my word count... I'm like that.

In the meantime, here is a very nice song I enjoyed listening to while writing!

Blah... Halloween coming means less time for NaNo updates.

I shall have more! Hopefully I shall have the descriptions of the human stitchpunks up later tonight as well as the fan OST for this by tomorrow.

I took the Mary-Sue Litmus Test and applied it to all my OCs, what can I say I got bored. All of them were under 20. YES! I guess that this is a good sign.

I see this as the opening theme to the NaNo if it were an anime:



Admit it, the song is awesome!

Here is the bio for Lynn, the big OC for the NaNo novel. She started out as my stitchpunk OC "L" in another fanfic I'm writing (*pokes icon* That's her), but I thought using her as a human would be something interesting to write with.

I wanted to put in more info, but it would be hard to without giving away stuff...

EDIT: Oct 29: Apparently I typed in some info for another character as well, which is why her name was so weird. I fixed the problem. Never type character bios for three people at once...

Here is the first of the Delmon siblings, Mitchel. He will be the first OC we are officially introduced to but not the first to show up. He's partly based on my own brother so I hope he comes across as the typical younger brother.

Both he and Lynn are introduced early and are characters that play big parts early, so there is a lot more info for these two. Which is why they got separate entries.

EDIT: I made some mistakes in the profile... like accidentally giving him an extra name... what was wrong with me? The only reason I gave everyone his and Lynn's middle names is because they are brought up in the story.
