Next time you get a nest for those two Kelly I want one like the little male with okapi.. only female. XDD

Aaahhhhh festival~! Maybe I'll luck out and get a nature egg finally after like 3 weeks of hunting for one.

I'm trying to keep all the helpful guide-like links in the main post updated so people can just look there instead of having to weed through the replies(not that we have a lot of replies in this thread yet but you know what i mean lol). I'll probably work on it tomorrow after work.

Do you want me to edit the original post to include those links?

I would call them special snowflakes but wait... that's us. XD

Why you pick water tho Cat. Ice is clearly where all the cool parties happen to the chill sounds of whatever music Icedad listens to with his tiny adorable ears.

FURIK GET ON THIS SHIT SET YOUR ALARMS PUT POST-IT NOTES ALL OVER YOUR COMPUTER.


In regards to the nuzlocke blogs I am soooooo behind on working on mine. Maybe I'll get to it soon. I've been really lazy in terms of FR stuffs the last few weeks. D;

I haven't wanted to spend the money to try this yet(we sell it at work but our prices are kinda high unless something is on sale). It's supposed to be Reese's XL equivalent to like the XL Hershey's and Kitkats. I assume they thought they couldn't just make one massive peanut butter cup or something, idek. Kinda a shame, a massive peanut butter cup would be heaven.
I am all for that Reese's shopping service idea tho. Or like.. MH Christmas penpal present thing and us Americans send gifts of Reese's to those less fortunate than us.

I stopped following both some time ago(SuG was shortly after Vi-Vi-Vi and vistlip was after the first release after their wreck that killed their manager) so I'm not sure of the progression of their sounds between now and then. Having listened to both bands' new albums, I'd have to go with vistlip. Their sound has remained consistent through the entire album, and LAYOUT touched a bit on their old style(even though I hear some Kyo-esque pterodactyl screeches in there.. Tomo stahp). SuG's BLACK was mostly a letdown, the only decent song to me being the title song that wasn't even placed in the tracklist appropriately. The album was all over the place and made me kinda sad. :c

Gonna stick with my intimidating-but-adorable bassist Umi and vistlip. ;3;

I have a feeling the next open registration is going to be in June. But don't worry Furik, we'll annoy the fuck out of you to join the dragon cult. <3

I hatched a shadow egg today that I had found during Trickmurk for my nuzlocke and got an adorable little Mirror girl that I named Grizzly to match the other's animal names and her primary color was brown shade so I thought it worked lol. Poor Panda's all outnumbered.

You and your challenges, ender! XD I'll be good to manage this nuzlocke without giving up.

Poor London's parents both were exalted(still can't believe the person who bought his mother from me named her MissIce.. like really?), I'm super happy he survived the culling. Also still super happy to have Chiba in my lair, tho I need to keep an eye on when he's ready to breed.. I swear it said he would be ready in 9 days like.. 6 days ago. I need Chiba/Naos babies. They are gonna have such pretty babies.

More derg pics aww yiss~.
 
 
I forgot to mention in the main post but I've got a few breeding pairs so if you guys check out my nesting grounds on occasion and see a nesting pair that you like the looks of just let me know and I'll let you have one of the pair's babies when the nest hatches. The derg market is shit right now so selling dragons isn't really that great plus I'd love to continue to help you guys build your lairs. <3 I'll probably edit the main post as I think of new things to add that I've forgotten so make sure to check it every so often!

So yesterday was open registration and  and I managed to convince a few of you of how awesome virtual dragons are. Yay! So glad to have some fellow MH peeps to play draggins with. Figured I'd start a thread where we can converse about how badass our lairs are etc.

Happy dragon times to everyone~.

Welcome to the forum officially!

Hope you enjoy all of your future time here. Also feel free to check out the user review and staff review sections of the forum, they're a great place to get ideas on what new music to check out~.

What level of Japanese are you at?

PS- your intro isn't dumb. I also don't see any ramblings!

Artist: Hora Album: Cocytus Score: EDM super producer, Hora, is one of the most unique figures in the Visual Kei scene today... And has been for over a decade. Where most visual rock stars compose songs that are largely based on electric guitar, bass, and drums; Hora only uses his homemade synthesizers to create some of the greatest dance music you'll ever hear in your life. While he prefers to remain as obscure and indie as possible, if he would open himself up to a more global market he would surely give acts like Tiesto and Afrojack a run for their money. /p>
Over these past 13 years, Hora has composed around 45 songs for darkwave/trance duo Schwarz Stein; but a staggering 119 songs for his solo career and all while using vocals so sparingly one would wonder how he could keep it so constantly interesting.... The short answer is that it isn't always interesting, I'll admit. Being a huge fan since day one of Schwarz Stein, I also follow Hora's and Kaya's solo activities quite closely and have always listened to Hora's solo albums no matter how disappointing they ended up being. However, it seems that he managed to reignite the fire of his solo project around 2 years ago when he released Cocoon and then kicked it up about 70 notches for Desolation Beauty last year, ultimately resulting in this year's splendid Cocytus.

 
This is the first album of material he's produced since Schwarz Stein's official return to the scene and it shows. This album is significantly darker than his last one and utilizes the same sort of synths that were featured in Schwarz Stein's most recent single "Sleeping Madness" and by that I mean the beats are hard and fast. The album opener is fairly typical for Hora, unfortunately. Very melodramatic and slow and ultimately just very repetitive. The song drags on way too long and doesn't provide the listener with much intrigue. Along with Underwater and Winter Blood, this song can be skipped to prepare yourself for the real meat and potatoes of the album.

The second track is one of the absolute best Hora solo songs I've ever heard. "Frost" has the dramatic Hora flair that one must appreciate in order to be a fan while also delivering one of the hardest beats of his career. Please, please listen to this song above and you will not regret it. Following up this magnificent song is the second best song on the album, "Babel," which is considerably darker and deeper than "Frost." This is also his first composition in a long time that utilizes his harsh vocals. The only lyrics on this song, or the whole album in general, are "Let there be light." Title track "Cocytus" is a lot like album opener "Chamber of Fear" in that it's rather long and drawn out and does sort of the same thing continuously for no real added effect. Additionally, the use of string instruments becomes quite gratuitous when you're trying to listen to a dance album, but I digress. This is all just opinion, of course. The use of string instruments is something I've appreciated over the years and can see why people would enjoy their existence, but sometimes it's just too much.

Tracks 5 and 10 are essentially a two part series known as "Pray to God." The former song "Doom" has the same spacey quality as "Without Words" but in a much lighter atmosphere. The beat takes a while to kick in, but once it does it's actually quite fast and played under the melody of the piano to produce something very lighthearted (ironic for a song called "Doom," right?) The second in the series, "Heir" has a very interesting introduction. It's super glitchy, meaning there's no beat but the synths sort of skip around and sound like a broken video game. The second synths kick in not long into the song and create a continuation of the spacey vibe that "Doom" sets up. When the piano starts in this song it immediately echoes the piano of "Doom" and finishes out by adding a slower version of the beat in its predecessor.

Other extremely notable tracks are "My Vendetta" and the aptly-yet-reduntantly-named "Without Words" which are heavy/dark and mid tempo respectively. "My Vendetta" is the shortest song on the album and packs a decent punch in just 3.5 minutes... Which is actually a great thing considering if it had gone on too much longer it would get into the too-repetitive category due to the fact it doesn't change it's beat that much and is sort of a lot of the same sound. "Without Words" is more elegantly composed and utilizes more than one sound to make it's point. While I could see how someone could describe it as "lengthy," it has an ephemeral and spacey quality that hasn't quite been prominent on Hora's albums since Prominence in 2006.

All in all, this is definitely among Hora's best solo works. I highly recommend it as a general piece of music and find that it could likely be appreciated by all walks of life as it isn't too intense in any one genre at any one point. That being said, I do hope that Hora's and Kaya's priority over the next few months is to create a full-length Schwarz Stein album. I find that Kaya and Hora work best when they're together even though their individual talents are something quite formidable. It's like combining the two best things to make something even more impressive. Hora is the chocolate to Kaya's peanut butter or the Sonny to his Cher. They're best when together.

SOBS LOUDLY. OH MAN I DIDNT KNOW YOU GUYS ALL MISSED ME SO MUCH ;-; i will stay i promise!!!!!

Well, I missed you guys so I guess I will be back...sparingly but back none the less.
 
Please don't make me regret this decision lol. >_>
 
 

I've been doing a bit better with my eating habits the last week or so. I've drastically cut back on the amount of soda I drink, trying to substitute water or tea in it's place. I still occasionally eat junk but I'm doing a hell of a lot better with my portion control. Where I used to sit and eat an entire bag of mini reeses I've been allowing myself to eat two and then put the bag away for the rest of the day. I believe a serving size on a pizza is usually 2 slices? For me it was at minimum half of the pizza, sometimes the entire pizza. So I'm definitely trying to cut back to 3 slices at most and putting the rest in containers for more meals. Been trying to take healthier lunches with me to work but it's not easy to have healthy/better-for-me meals, 30 minutes isn't much time to eat when you're notoriously slow at eating. u__u But I am trying my best! Got a nice spring mix salad w/ cucumber and tomatoes made for my work meal today, with sides of green olives and a pink lady apple. Will probably take a bit of sharp cheddar and sliced deli-style turkey with me as well for some protein.

I haven't started exercising yet since I'm only through week one of school and haven't felt I've really settled into a routine yet to make time for daily walks. Soon tho!

A new project named "Ⅸ -NINE-" has opened its official tumblr and youtube account.
And their 1st mini album VIDYA will be released on 2015.03.12.
