Hey Jaden your ajna has fallen.

Oh noes most of you are thinking his ajna has fallen an all of you are thinking what in the hell is an ajna anyway. Well if any of you out there study yoga at all you will recognize the word ajna as one of the body centers, also called chakra points, which is between the throat and the crown of the head. But it is also a metaphor for personality to the point of almost enlightenment.  

Well personality wise you can see the ajna at work with the greatest leaders (royal, religious, military, government, etc.) of the history of mankind.  Calm, controlled, charismatic and take charge person like one’s boss, a general, a leader; like King Author, Merlin, Pope John Paul II, Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, Obi Wan Kenobi, you all know where I am going with this. These are all examples of ajna centered people.

Now for the fun part; a fallen ajna.

What is a fallen ajna you might be thinking, well a fallen ajna is an ajna that is controlled by one of the lower centers of the personality. A fallen ajna is usually controlled by lower solar plexus center, the sacral center or, heaven forbid, the root center. In which case we get the power hungry, self-centered,  money hungry, egomaniacal, megalomaniacs we all know and love (in fiction)/hate (in real life).  Such as Rasputin (throat and sacral controlled ajna), Hitler (lower solar plexus and root controlled ajna), Jim Jones (lower solar plexus and sacral controlled ajna), David Koresh (lower solar plexus and sacral controlled ajna) in real life. As for fictional people with a fallen ajna, Darth Vader (lower solar plexus controlled ajna), Hannibal Lecter (lower solar plexus and root controlled ajna), and Saruman (root controlled ajna).

Case in point, what happens when Jaden goes from being a higher solar plexus and heart centered person to an ajna centered person? You get a Jaden with a sacral and root controlled ajna, aka; the Supreme King. The dictator, tyrant, King of Dark World who rules with an iron fist and will send you to the stars (in the dub) and kill you (in the original anime) if you lose a duel with him, yeah that Jaden.

The thrilling part of this discovery, when Jaden is the Supreme King he is just like Hannibal Lecter. And oddly enough a lot of women find the character Hannibal Lecter sexy; I do too. I can totally see the Supreme King saying, A census taker once tried to test me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti.” With a smirk of pure evil and snarkiness on his face. Can you?

But the most disturbing part of this discovery, when Jaden is the Supreme King he is just like Adolf Hitler. And I despise Hitler with a passion. For all the atrocities he committed to make a perfect race, I hope to god that if there is a hell, he is down there being tormented in the most evil and inhumane ways that made what he did to humanity during his life time look like a walk in the park. The fucker deserves no less.

But you all see where I am going with this, I hope. So when I write a fic with the Supreme King in it I will think to myself if Hitler or Hannibal Lecter was in this situation what would they do and figure it out and merge that reaction to the Supreme King to make a more authentic Supreme King in my fics, which means that I have to watch more documentaries on Hitler and the Nazi party to get a better understanding of the Supreme King. And I just realized if I am going to have my OC be involved with the Supreme King any I have to study up on Hitler’s lover Ava Bran. What did Ava Bran see in that fuck tart Hitler anyway??? Great question and I will get back to all of you on that.

Anywho, Jaden hun, you dropped your ajna, so you better pic it up.

Yu-Gi-Oh GX fic research update #5 – Once Upon A Time In Dark World.

This time I am going to talk about the guys past lives in my fic. And what I mean by pass lives, I don't mean what their lives were before Duel Academy, but what their lives were when they were alive in Dark World, when Jaden was the Supreme Prince and Yubel wasn't turned into a duel monster. So let us start with the most obvious guy first.

Jaden Yuki – The Dark King
    • We know that Jaden is the Supreme King and he seems to be the supreme ruler of Dark World. He's best friend Yubel was turn into a duel monster in order to protect and guard Jaden. Well from what I can tell, he had a good and healthy childhood as the Supreme Prince, other than seeing Yubel being turned into a monster I don't see any form of trauma. But Zure, the Knight of Dark World, recognized Jaden before he tuned into the Supreme King in the anime. So given that as a clue, the Jaden in his past life became dark in a sense after his father died and he became king or sometime before. And during that time I can also guess there were a lot of battles and duels like all medieval times. So this is where I will start my back story plot in my fic.

Zane Truesdale – The Vampire
    • Why did I choose Zane's past life in Dark World to be a vampire, well Zane has that vampire Goth vibe to him. And my version of a vampire is as follows.
        - Vampires cast shadows but they animate and move on their own.
        - They have reflections in mirrors an other reflective surfaces but they show the vampire's darker side of their personalities.
        - Instead of being tied to their place of burial, they are tied to something like an emotion, smell, sight, etc.
        - The sleep like normal people do, but it is a deep sleep with vivid and/or realistic dreams.
        - Instead of a blood lust they have something simpler called and essence lust. In essence lust the site, smell, touch, taste, sound or mention of an unique essence will trigger the vampire to go into an uncontrollable frenzy.
    • So can you see Zane acting like this. I can and I am still trying to figure out how he became one. But there are a few things you should know about Zane's past in Dark World.
        - His father is the one that help create the magic that turned Yubel into a duel monster.
        - Jesse is his half brother.
        - Zane is being hunted down by Jim.

Jesse Anderson – The Demon
    • Other than being related to Zane, the blue hair did it for me because both of them almost have the same color hair, Jesse and Zane have the same mother. Jesse's father on the other hand is a demon. Like some rape stories from the middle ages, the poor woman is raped by a demon and gives birth to a demon child. Like the wizard Merlin who's mother was a nun who was raped by the devil or a demon and that is how Merlin got his magical powers. So that is what I am planning on doing to Jesse. He will have a natural knack for black magic and he teaches it to the heroin in the fic.

Atticus Rhodes – The Unseelie Fey
    • It is Atticus' uncanny ability to charm the girls, be unpredictable, creative and have this unnatural knack to see the bright side of things that made me give him the part of the fairy prince in this fic. And before you say Atticus being a fairy is silly and girly think again. Not all fairies are like Tinkerbell from Peter Pan or like the fairy godmother from Cinderella. Fairies can be dark an evil as well. Kidnapping people and babies and replacing them with fakes via fairy magic. Like Oberon and Puck from Shakespeare’s A Midsummer's Night Dream, they are dark and mischievous creatures who think they are better than humans and will often makes deals with humans. And same to with Atticus, he will teach fey magic to the heroin of the fic.

Jim “Crocodile” Cook – The Witch Hunter.
    • I have Jim as a twisted and corrupt priest who goes from village to village, town to town and city to city to get rid of witches, demons, vampires and other monsters to protect innocents from evil. He loves his job to much and what I mean by twisted and corrupted I mean he drinks, sells indulgences so people can go to heaven, steals money, lies, steal and smuggles items of value, has sex, etc. His religious views that he shows is only for show and he doesn't believe in any of them and his vows of poverty, chastity and charity are always broken and he has an unhealthy obsession with witches especially the witches' sexual backgrounds and relationships.

Tyranno Hassleberry – The Weredragon
    • I made Hassleberry into a weredragon for a couple of reasons. One, he has traits of a werecreature when his dinosaur DNA kicks in and two, the closest things to dinosaurs in medieval times there were in fairytale were dragons. We all no Hassleberry isn't stupid, if it wasn't for him not being from a rich family he would have been an obelisk blue, and in history and myths dragons are always smart even though animistic which fits Hassleberry perfectly. So he will know dragon magic and will teach the heroin as well, but he will also be an ally to Jim as well. Why? I am not saying... yet.

So this is the bare bones of the guys' pasts in Dark World. All of this is still in the ruff stages but I am still taking notes yet.

Yu-Gi-Oh GX fic research update #3 - A look into one's dark side.

I started to look at the main characters (Jaden, Jesse, Atticus, Jim, Zane and Hassleberry) for my fic and what would their dark side would be like. Sell going through my notes I found a few things and I looked to compare on what characters were listed in chapter six of the book "The Power of the Dark Side"; a great book for how to write great villains. Chapter six deals with the types of villains and bingo I found some people we all might recognize.


The Trickster – Mentally sharp. Sharp tongued.  Good command of language, twists words and phrases, double entendres, puns.  Somewhat mean, sometimes downright cruel.
- Jim "Crocodile" Cook fits this.


The Rake – Pheromones gone wild. They exude an aura of irresistibility and they know it. Some don’t actually enjoy sex, but they use sex to gain power and control. Some maybe searching for sexual fulfillment, cold angry they’ve never found it. They are not always physically beautiful, but they instinctively know what you think is beautiful and play that up. They quickly assess your pride (hair, profession, etc.) and your shame (weight, family, etc.) and use those seemingly bond with you. They will boff you for days and murmur all those love words, but there is always a deep chasm are a steep wall between you and their real selves.
-Atticus Rhodes fits this.


Pimps, Panderers, and Pushers – Control freaks. Users. People intent on wallowing in the degradation of others. Low self regard and low regard for others. Pessimistic. Defeatist. Cynical. Greedy. Sociopath.
-Zane Truesdale fits this.


Pirates, Rebels and Traitors – Selfish. Disdain for the system and determination to take advantage of it. Addicted to adrenalin. Physical courage or simply not caring whether they live or die. Angry or other extreme, indifferent. Using violence and fear to try to feel something… anything. Often self destructive; the simply don’t give a hoot about themselves or anyone else. Thought spiritual teachings says there’s Light inside everyone, you’d be hard pressed to find any in these people, they have done such a good job of covering it over with Darkness.
-Jesse Anderson fits this.


Bad Cob, Worse Cop – Cocky, swaggering. Love the uniforms, the guns, the medals, the machines. Competitive. Have a daddy-knows-best attitude toward the populace, but resent the powers over them. Disgusted with the bad and sad people they deal with on the streets. On constant alert, they see danger everywhere and are always ready for it.
-Tyranno Hassleberry fits this.


Dictators, Tyrants and Cult Leaders – Charismatic. Clever. Proud. Arrogant. Insensitive. Intuitive. Exude a sense of confidence and power. They lock gazes with you (you’re a deer in the headlights) and speak hypnotically. Often sexually voracious. Ruthless and slightly, or maybe totally, mad
-Jaden Yuki fits this.


Yes I am going to make these guys as evil and twisted as possible and no one said that the main characters have to be good guys right.

Yu-Gi-Oh GX fic research update #2 - aka, Now For The Weather!

Well for my latest up date for my fic I have finally figured out the damn climate and weather for both the city of Domino/New Domino and Duel Academy Island. That is a good thing because the weather and the climate will play a major part in this fic and I wanted authanticity. Trust me you can't have a good horror fic with out shitty weather and people will nit-pick at those little discrepencies somewhere and the last thing I need is some YGO fan who is a meterology major getting on my damn back. XD


Anywho, back to the weather with me Cin Wiseman. For today the city of Domino will experience medium to heavy rain showers with a relative humidity of 80% through the day with a high of 56 and a low 42 degrees. While Duel Academy will have heave rain with a relative humidity of 85% with a high of 60 and a low 49 degrees. So duelists keep your deck dry and if you do plan on dueling with your duel disks today do so in a covered area and sorry to our duel runner enthusiast out there, unless you can find a covered racing track to duelrun in no dueling for you. Now to sports with Jesse Anderson, back to you Jesse. *Gives everyone a stupid weather-girl smile.*


Oops, got carried away there. XD But you get it, only 4 pages of notes too. Impressive by my view of things since I have been writing pages and pages of stuff in a spiral notebook. Now I have to go hunting to find the best ways to write a convincing redneck/hillbilly. I got more info on Arkansas yesterday. I swear that state wants me, or that their Jesse Andersons do. I am still waiting for tourist info from Romania and Hungry for the twisted version of Duel Academy Island and the mainland. And some stuff on California for me and Aster ((Aster is from San Fansisco and Cin is from LA)) and also some stuff from New Mexico for Hassleberry. I got stuff from Dawin Australia for Jim. As for the others Jaden, Zane, Atticus, Alexis, Syrus, Bastian and Chazz they are from Tokyo Japan.


So here I go for another late night of research. Wish me luck and I will update you guys soon. ^^

Yu-Gi-Oh GX fic research update #1

Okay got my cowboy slang notes that I have been taking for about 6 hours now. What lengths I would go to get authenticity and be trueful to the Yu-Gi-Oh GX fandom as possible. From the little bits of info I have gathered watching the anime half a million times and reading what I have of the manga and going to the Yu-Gi-Oh wiki and catching clues from random dialog from the anime I have gotten several good starting points for several characters backgrounds as to where they are from. So what do I do? Order free travel guides to those places those characters are from and go to the library when I had no computer for at least those 2 an a half months and either photocopy or take handwritten notes on those places and other story elements I am needing for this fic and what I can't find at the library I go on the net here. I have at least have gone through 4 different slang dictionaries at the library and on line, (Hasslebrerry need half of those dictionaries, one of cowboy slang the other military slang). And enough travel guides to start a travel agency (Especially travel guides from Arkansas. I got so many from there that I can make Jesse walk around that state blindfolded, in a middle of a saver blizzard, in the middle of the night in the middle of the woods in the Ozarks with out getting lost.) Um... yeah, you get what I am saying. Well I am going to bed. If you got any questions on what the hell I am writing just ask, I would love to share and suggestions and ideas are always welcome. We have to feed the plot bunnies. ^^
