MASSIVE picture upload today. In fact, this is just the first part. Just my Theory/Composition book. More tomorrow.
A girl’s hair, Theory class, Sep 18, ’08. She was sitting in front of me and it looked nice.
Nieron Lyrestan sha Lilemlen, Theory class, Sep 29, 2008. Not a good representation of Lyrestan.
Wet Flairé, Theory class, Sep 29, 2008. A pretty decent representation of a wet Flairé.
Daneel Olivaw, Theory class, Oct 5, 2008. My favourite character from The Caves of Steel and sequels, by Isaac Asimov. He’s a robot! With genuine emotions, sorta!
Hair, Theory class, Oct 9, 2008. Some shiny guy on the left (I have no idea who, could be lx-sama, could be… some video game hero, I don’t know). The girl is Juno Eclipse from Star Wars: Teh Force Unleashed, and the blank face is no one in particular, and the last guy is supposed to be Ceniro. Some distracting bits were edited out of the scan.
Moar doodles from the same class. Flairé’s head at an experimental angle (failed), Esgalwen, and Glorfindel. I think. Also edited for clarity. And yes, this is what most of my notes look like. Messy messy! And I was recommended not to go to the Darmstadt New Music Festival because apparently they’re very picky about whether you call something ‘serial’, ‘dodecaphonic’, or ’12-tone’. Not that I’d appreciate the music much anyway!
Scratch (Blackberry), Apple, and Scratch-son. And a cloak. Theory class, Oct 20, 2008. The cloak is from planning my costume. The other people are a family (from the Griffon-lands) spawned from a stray joke of lx-sama’s. He asked me to make a character named X-ray (Ekssré), so I did. The guy with the big sword is Kess, Blackberry, but he adds a bit and calls himself Ekess, Scratch. His wife’s name is Apple (going with the fruit theme here). His baby son’s name ought to be Kessré Blackberry-son, but since his father usually goes by Ekess, he eventually grows up to call himself Ekessré. So thar. : P Thank goodness I wrote a bunch of this down long ago in Excel.
Here’s the not-so-good version, done the day before.
Nieron Mathaning sha Lilemlen, Theory class, Oct 23, 2008. Ohmigosh, this is the BEST picture of Mathaning I’ve ever done. It has both pen and pencil in it and… I just love him. I mean, it. Not sure what he’s doing with his feet there, but his boots are shiny. <3
AndrewP, Flaer, Theory class, Oct 27, 2008. This followed a page of composition notes notes about how to make the hood and gauntlets (and sword) of my costume. Andrew nearly fell asleep in the desk beside me, so I drew him. And then I drew Flaer for the heck of it.
Cranky half-dressed Flairé, Theory class, Nov 3, 2008. I dunno. Man-practice. (Flairé: *facepalms*) With three different left hands.
Esgalwen, same class. Similar to how she is drawn on my D&D sheet from Cedric’s campaign. …We should totally play that sometime, but one member is moving to the Interior in a month and Ced himself is not sure where he’s going to end up living-wise. But Esgalwen is pretty. Though her character sheet has a ton more junk on her character design.
Heads, Theory class, Nov 13, 2008. I can’t remember who the guy on the left is. Not at all. He looks straight-laced. Always a good thing, usually. The guy on the right is supposed to be Ceniro.
Link, Theory class, Nov 24, 2008. Check out those shoulders.
Nieron Menad Faeré (sic?) sha Lilemlen, Theory class, Nov 27, 2008. Looks definitely less prissy than he looks now. Maybe I should change him back.
Flairé and Leslie, Theory class, Dec 1, 2008. Big Flairé on a stump (yay!) and little Flairé (fail). Also Leslie, because she’s pretty. But I didn’t do her very well.
Dooooodles, same class. Standing person is… Esgalwen. You can tell by the necklace. Random hair is Gauthicus from True Magic (hasn’t appeared yet) and on the right Navi is telekinesising Link’s hat. Link looks Japanese.
???, Theory class, Jan 5, 2009. This year! Flairé is sleeping, and then… somebody’s eye. I dunno.
Heads, same class. Flairé??? at a tricky angle, not very good at all. The fuzzy thing is… I have no idea what that thing is. Then there’s Sangwine, looking pretty, and Rana, looking squished. And Naeri.
Bodies, Composition class, Jan 8, 2009. Just some figures.
“Can’t draw today”, Theory class, Jan 15, 2009. I don’t know who any of these people are.
Flairé, with wings, Theory class, Jan 19, 2009. Flairé, sporting his strap-on wings, or rather trailing them on the ground, because he’s… he looks slightly depressed. Awww. The angel-y guy I don’t know who he is. Also some wierd head on the next page.
John Cage, Theory class, Jan 29, 2009. AAAAAHHHHHH IT’S JOHN CAGE LOOK OUT!!! He showed up in a slide the teacher was using, so I drew him. : P Also this page has the word GARHYA in big letters at the top, so I must have been unhappy about something.
Flairé in snow, same class. Yeah, I must have been really depressed about something. Don’t know what, though. Lack of a love life? Too cold/terrible weather? Not enough sleep? …I don’t remember that time. (who wants to remember theory class, anyway? 
Kalmei, Theory class, Feb 2, 2009. Flairé is napping, I think in his sister’s arms, at the top. That’s supposed to be Esgalwen, not related to the scene beside her, but she’s not very good. Down at the bottom of the page are Flairé and Flaer. This page also has a short note about kalmaeirin music: “Kalmaei – searching for the most beautiful sounds to express the beauty they see in the world – music is more expressive than words even music with words – which actually just makes things easier to express but wordless just as deep. They don’t prefer one to another on average.”
Heads, Theory class, Mar 5, 2009. Flairé, soldier-boy, Rana, Link, and Flaer. Soldier-boy is a fellow student…
I don’t know who, Theory class, Mar 16, 2009.
Heads, Theory class, Mar 19, 2009. I think these are all supposed to be Lyrestan, except for the tiny ugly Ceniro head at the top and the Kylyralessa head at the bottom.
WHAT, Theory class, Mar 30, 2009. Uh…….. I don’t know. I really don’t know. Tattoo designs? XP I think that’s supposed to be me.
Heads, Theory class, April 2, 2009. Gullac (?) at the top of the page. Mathaning in the middle. Marteth (lookin’ good) at the bottom.
And then I have half the book still blank, with a few pages devoted to love-sick poetry and the structure of kalmaeirin language and music at the back. The poetry is awful. But that’s normal for love-sick poetry.
What, you’re still here? Wow. Well, here’s what I’ve been up to the last few days…
TUESDAY I LEARNED THE SECRET TO MY PLAYING PIANO. I have to keep my rib cage open, just like singing, and relax everything, and everything magically sounds BETTER. WOOT. I will be practicing all the spare minutes I have, believe me. Except for the times when I’m looking up Lieder for MUS 421. Blah. And eating. Drat eating. A little. So I’m very motivated on fixing my two problems. Yayness!
If you search ‘Adhemlenei’ on Google, you find… some very interesting things. You find: Adhemlenei (of course). About Adhemlenei. Some sort of cache of one of my posts on another site, apparently hitting up for free ‘Warhammer’ ad credits. Whatever. Elfinessé, the old site. Other things include stuff that I’ve linked to (which automatically puts a post and link to Adhemlenei on those sites – like I Can Has Cheezburger) and sites that say ‘Adhemlenei has been registered as a domain name’. But fourth down the list is a wierd link that says ‘games workshop >> Blog Archive >> Ephraim’s Story: Chapter 1′. And I have no idea what this is from or what it’s for (it looks like a bot… >_> <_<) but if you click on it (I believe it’s harmless) it seems to have taken my post for Chapter 1: Unbroken Heart, run it though several (bad) translators, put it back into English, sprinkled around the words ‘conspicuously demeaning conspicuously’, and stuck it up among… random other things with the same treatment. It has no relationship with Games Workshop at all. HYSTERICAL. Probably the funniest thing you read today, even without knowing what I wrote in the original chapter, unless you go and read The Eye of Argon MST, which is not suitable for people under 13 years old.
I also did Rana’s character page, except for the image, which I haven’t made yet. I would like to thank the Sygnus Figment Registry for their excellent character page layouts, which I shamelessly copied from.
And I went to salsa last night, which was outside as the usual space was being used by someone else. They had some iPod speaker thingies, and Jon had his iPod, so there was music outside under the stars tents! The advanced group learned some difficult new moves, and I’m starting to understand Cetenta, but I’m definitely doing something wrong with my arms in Cocoon still. I should move easily into the enchufla, instead of awkwardly flailing around after the ducking turn trying to get my arms in front of me. Sam is very nice about it, though. And helping Matthew with Cetenta helped me to remember it properly. And afterwards, on the bus, Anna and I talked about Latin because Latin is awesome. The only thing was that I got huge blisters while dancing and limped all the way home after the bus. But it was worth every step. ^_^7
This is another piece of fanart for True Magic which I ought to have posted long long ago, but I forgot about it somehow. It’s Kiku serving Gauthicus iced tea, based on several ‘outtakes’ in which Gauthicus demands iced tea. Hilarious. She also says that making Kiku Gauth’s teaboy is perfect. Eee!
This is Gauthicus B. Schönen, a handsome and mysterious cloaked (and cravatted) man of Mystery from
