Jory and Mew

[Jory and Mew]

Hi. I'm Jory. I'm a thirteen-and-a-half-year-old Australian. I have short brown hair cut into a goth style, and hazel eyes. I'm pretty short for my age, but slender. I like roleplaying, writing, drawing, listening to music (my favourite band is the Whitlams) and chatting with my dæmon, Mew.

<Hi. I'm Mew. I'm a dog-sized cougar with a white tail-tip, grey-brown fur with a pale underbelly, black ear-back, pinkish-roan nose and ear-leather and a marking on my snout rather like three close-set stripes. I enjoy making witty and sardonic remarks, napping, playing tag and chewing my human Jory's pillow as she plays on her computer.>

I live in Melbourne, where the Commonwealth Games are being held this year. I have one sister, named Minnie, with a shapeshifter-dæmon, and my parents have a squirrel-dæmon (Nuttel) and a sun bear-dæmon (name unknown, but Mew calls him "Dangerous").

<In the course of some ten or eleven years of knowing me, I have recieved over a hundred nicknames from Jory. Top of the list is Pteryl, when I was a pendragon, then my current name, Mew, and a more recent nickname, Amadeus, is my third favourite.>

We love roleplays, so if you want to do one, just email us. We're at [e-mail]. We also have MSN

What in Cerunnos's name is a Goth cut?

[Mie&Sequilaer]

You sound false to me.
Excuse me, but what exactly is a sun bear?

It's a species of Asian bear. Google it.

Oooh! xD

<...I take offense in that. I'm as real as you are.>

Goth cut = haircut in gothic style. You know, goth as in black, lace, faint vampire influence, black is the colour of my soul.

oMgZ! MY SOUL IS BLACK, TOO! ;D

*rolls eyes*

I'm sorry you're recieving such a hard hit with your gothic claims, but...yeah. Nowadays goth is dead and anyone claiming to be goth is an EMO kid.


Anyways, Are you sure he's a small cougar? Maybe he's a type of housecat or a small wild cat?

I'm one of those who don't think that daimons can settle as anything extinct or too diffrent from the original form.

Goth is alive and kicking here- just depends where you are. Apparently there's a whole suburb in Sydney where Goths live and bring up their goth kids whilst hanging out in goth shops and goth cafes XD
There were also a few goths at my school (who you could easily identify despite school uniforms). They were very clear about hating emos and the distinction between the two.

Anyway, Welcome Jory and Mew! I'm Spiral, nearly 18 and living in Sydney. I'm not sure if anyone will see my reply but I though I should stick it here before moving over to our usual home on TDF.
I'm one of the supposed 80% of Australians who aren't watching the games ^.~ I did watch a men's running race... 10 laps I think it was (Aussie came 2nd), and I watched a men's relay swimming event (which we won). So I guess I'm not quite of the 80%. Mind you when the Olympics were here I went to heaps of events, have you gone to see anything?

[Jory and Mew]

Woo. Got a lot to reply to.

I'm not sure what Mew is. He's about 140 centimetres from nose to tail-tip, so far too small to be an adult cougar, but he isn't cublike. He's pretty tall and slender, with rather absurdly thin legs. The best suggestion we've had is an onza, a very rare Mexican puma. But his markings are strange, and onzas tend to lean towards red rather than grey. Mew's never been one to look exactly like what he poses as. When I first met him, he was in the form of my sister's recently killed kitten Jimmy, but he had a small white streak on him that Jimmy, a pure-black cat, never had. It might also be notable that Mew has non- or semi-retractable claws, as they're always at least halfway out, and rather blunt.

My soul isn't really black. I'm a doll goth, which basically means I'm in because it looks cool. Shallow, yes, but doll goth is quite different from real goth and it's obvious. To other goths, anyway. My older sister and her best friend, real goths (leaning towards mods now XD) dressed me up and taught me some of the Sacred Ways of Goth-hood.

Yes, my uncle lives in Sydney, in the goth suburbs. He's not goth though. He's... Well, his job is an artist, so what can I say? Actually, funny story, true story, he was staying down here, and he looked in an art magazine, see if there was anyone he knew in there. And guess who was listed under the title "Australia's Fifty Most Collectable Artists"? Him himself! And I just know someone will ask, so here it is: his name is Josh Honeyman.

I abhorr watching sport. Especially the Melbourne games. I feel rather disgruntled that we got the games anyway. Why can't they just be held in Sydney, where cultural and sports festivals are normal and welcome? Anyway, no, I haven't watched any sport. I'm feeling rather wrathful, considering the congestion caused by the Commonwealth games was one of the factors in the event of me not going to see the Whitlams perform live and sign their new CD's. *eye twitch* What's this funny boiling sensation in my midriff? Ah, it must be pure, unadultered hate and rage.

...Well, at least you admit it, so I won't give you that hard of a time about it.

Admit it, feel bad about it... But I'm simply not a black person. I'm more... somewhere between navy and electric blue. It's a shame that that's sort of my colour, since I hate that colour...

I know about that. I would do anything to live just NEAR there. Brunswick street is a great place for goth and rock stuff here in Melbourne.
