Fifth Journal Entry - Can We Push the Red Button?
Today's journal entry is titled "Can We push the Red Button?". It reflects my feelings on those who purposely spoil the surprise of upcoming things for other Gaians.

*Rant Below*

Like, remember the hacker who hacked the mining game Gaia was working on, and the game got canned? Gee....maybe that's because it was leaked to the public and might've been reported to Minesweeper for being too similar to their game.

I mean seriously, back in early 04, Gaia was still a teeny tiny site. Minesweeper would not have hunted down a Gaia game and sued them.

Other than that though, I dislike it when people will find a leaked item or feature and put it in their signature.

It is my opinion that if you have images or information regarding upcoming items or features on Gaia, then you should only display them in a GCD thread with the big word *SPOILERS* in your title.

It isn't fair to those Gaians who don't wish to have the surprise ruined for them.

That being said, I am CONSTANTLY looking for leaked info and images, but I am just sick of the hackers and spammers who give people like me a bad name for just digging for information.

*Rant over*

Now other thanthat rant, a lot of neat things have been happening offline for me! I've still been practicing driving (not quite ready to head into heavy traffic yet, but I'm getting there) and just yesterday I opened up a checking account at my local bank!

I felt so grown-up, yet inexperienced. sweatdrop

But what will my money go towards? Well, I'll probably pay my Time Warner Bill using Checks, and I am considering a Blockbuster Online membership. (the only problem is, I usually just BUY my anime by the entire season off fo eBay, so I may just end up wasting my money. Plus, I don't like the thought of them having direct access to my bank account).

I also have to get a Tablet (reeeeaaaallly need one of those -_-) and I need a new TV. It'd also be nice to get a digital scale, so I can have motivation to lose some weight. heart

But anyways, enough of that buff n' guff. On to the next Chapter in "Timid Android"!

TIMID ANDROID - Chapter Two: A Mystery Begins! (Part One)

Hades VII was in a state of utter confusion as she stared at the large portrait hanging on the wall in secrecy of the Gambino Mansion's forgotten room. Why were her fathers in a portrait with Mr. Gambino? Did they have some sort of connection?

Her head was starting to hurt. She needed nutrients badly. Her bio-mechanical body was starting to lag at the more detailed functions.

At that moment she heard a knock on the door. She panickingly pulled the chord one more time by the bed and all the paintings were once again covered.

"C-come in!" Hades VII startled at the door knocker.

At that moment the door opened quietly and the butler Jeebs walked into the room, bowing slightly.

"Madam, I am here to inform you that dinner will be ready shortly. Please be ready to dine with young master Gino in the Dining Hall in twenty minutes promptly."

Hades VII gave him a slight nod, and Jeebs let himself out of the room. Hades VII sighed a breath of relief...

If she was caught snooping around her host's secrets, she might never find her Fathers! She stood up and walked over to the wardrobe, swinging the heavy doors open.

"I have to play it cool" she thought to herself. That was an expression Father E was constantly using around her. Thinking of her Fathers made a tear swell up in her eye. She knew she had to find them, no matter what!

Moments later, Hades VII emerged from her bedroom, in formal wear to die for...

"...NO, NOT THAT! scream Geez....are the illustrators on crack today?! Where's the formal wear Guys?! Oh, okay...there it is! Sorry for the mix-up everyone. Ahem! Where were we? Oh yeah...she emerged in formal wear to die for...."

She made her way down the banister and massive stairway, and down the grand hall to the dining room. Jeebs was waiting for her and opened the door. She gave him a smile and slight curtsy as he stared back in fake appreciation.

"Shifty butler..." she thought to herself.

As she entered the dining room, Jeebs closed the door and led her down the long dining table to a spot near the end, where there was a plate of food ready for her. At the table's end, there was another plate of food prepared, however it's consumer had not yet arrived, as told by the vacant chair at its spot.

She sat down and folded the laced dining napkin onto her lap.

She looked at Jeebs.

"Young Master Gino should be here any moment. He said he was on the phone with an important clientale resident who was new to the island. I expect he'll be here shortly."

With that, Jeebs motioned to a man on the other side of the room, in the garb of a servant, who came over and began to play soft violin music for her. Jeebs bowed to Hades VII, and left the dining room.

It was so magical to Hades VII. The clothes, the food, the music. She felt like she was in a princess fairytale. All she needed was a white horse and a....

Suddenly, the doors of the dining room opened, and in jogged a young man with golden locks and dapper garb. He breathed swiftly for a moment as he looked at Hades VII.

"He..he....Sorry I-I'm...late...!" he exclaimed with a slight stutter.

"I don't like to keep guests waiting! sweatdrop "

Hades VII looked at the young man and was enraptured by his beautifukl eyes. She tried to speak, but her mouth wouldn't open. She was....so tired...

She could feel her muscles shutting down. She had to eat something...

Her hand quivered as she reached for a fork, when suddenly she lost consciousness!

TO BE CONTINUED...!! eek

And that, my dear friends, was journal entry number five! 4laugh

Did we grip you by your seat with story? Or bore you to snores with real life who-cares-about-its?

Next time on "The Gray Parade":
Hades VII has passed out! What will become of her? Will her circuits shut down? Maybe Gino will have to carry her to a Radio Shack to get her fixed! eek
And who was the important client that's new to the Isle de Gambino, that Gino was on the phone with?

Expect more answers in Journal Entry #6!

END TRANSMISSION.
