Green Flower

This is... random boi. I think his name starts with L. I have little to no idea who he is oO I had a dream night before last that I actually remembered, odd for me, and he was the main charrie in it, 'cept I couldn't see what he looked like since it was one of those first-person dreams, where you see everything from one charrie's pov but you're not ACTUALLY that charrie. Anyway. Because I'm lazy, here, have the AIM convo where I explained it and Random Boi to Sallie =D

annarti: OH i had a dream last night that i remembered =0
drazzi: do share =D
annarti: and i want to do something with the charrie in it, cos he was spiffy
annarti: i have no idea what he looks like cos it was one of those first-person dreams. i wasn't him, but i was seeing everything from his perspective
annarti: anyway
drazzi: ohooo...
annarti: he worked in a kitchen, not a chef but one of the people who sticks everything on the plate and makes it look pretty, like jackie at work does =3
annarti: BUT i don't think he's human. he can stop time~ which was spiffy. some sort of a trait of his people, but i dunno whether they can ALL stop time or what it is
drazzi: ooh that is spiffy...
annarti: anyway. there was this one spot where he was making sandwiches, but it was OMFGBUSY and he kinda tripped and almost spilt the plate of bread he was catching, but instead he stopped time while the bread was in midair and started making smoked salmon sandwiches out of them
drazzi: (I wish I ould do that)
annarti: (oh so very)
drazzi: ... mmm smoked salmon
drazzi: intelligent, sorry
drazzi: I can see it clearly in my mind though
annarti: it had avocado in it too
drazzi: with the stuff in the air...
annarti: and some sort of mayonaise~ X9
annarti: and yeah, they looked SO yummy while he was making them hovering in midair XD
annarti: but yeah, time hadn't completely stopped, just sorta slowed down to snail's pace, which he thought was somewhat scary. once he'd finished the sandwiches, everything was running at normal pace again without him having done anything to MAKE it go at normal pace
drazzi: ooh, so that's not normal for him?
drazzi: it's supposed to STOP
annarti: 'parently not
annarti: he was bloody scared by this point
annarti: so he tried experimentally stopping time again, which he does by kinda making a fist with his right hand as though he's trying to catch a mozzie, but nothing happened
annarti: did it again, still nothing, so now he's seriously bloody petrefied, like how you'd expect someone to be after finding they can't move their legs
drazzi: /nodnods
annarti: so he goes over to the corner between some big stainless steel... things. cupboards, ovens, whatever. slides backwards down the wall and just sits there taking deeeeeep breaths to try and calm himself and get a hold of what's going on. just listening to everything in the kitchen, his heart and breathing, all the clashing pots, whatever, anything but his own thoughts
drazzi: - this sounds like a fic in itself...
annarti: I KNOW i felt like i was writing it while it was happening XD
annarti: in a few minutes he kinda... drifts off. not asleep, but not awake either. just lying on the floor still hearing and seeing everything as people wave their hands in front of his face to try and make him 'wake up' again
annarti: at some point, someone puts a sandwhich in his hand and says it's been six days and that he should just give up and get up
drazzi: - whoa
annarti: so slowly consciousness returns and he squeezes the sandwich in his hand cos he's just so scared and frustrated and muu T__T i wanted to hug him in the same way i want to hug my charries when they're upset, but of course you can't physically cos they're inside your head. same kinda feeling
annarti: so he manages to pull himself up and rests his arms and forehead against the stainless steel whatever and starts crying T__T
annarti: oh yeah, and there was this bit back where he was doing the sandwiches where he yelled out to the kitchen that he couldn't stop time anymore, and they all ignored him =( cos they were so busy they couldn't give a stuff that he couldn't make life easier for himself anymore
drazzi: gawd I feel so bad for him =(
drazzi: and I don't even know him <3
drazzi: you must have him!
drazzi: So we can hug him
annarti: i muuuust <3
annarti: i heart him and i've got no idea who/what he is XD
annarti: but yeah. he's still not totally with it, so they (three of the other people in the kitchen) sit him down at a table and start talking amongst themselves but he's still not registering what they're saying. some bloke comes in with a woman in a red coat and sits down with them
drazzi: ohoho?
annarti: the woman comes around to his side with a camera to take his picture, but somewhere in the fog he sees this is a bad~ thing and so turns his head, and i can remember the camera pushing against the back of his head, and he's got long hair *nods*
annarti: but yeah. suddenly he's AWAKE and staring at the man going 'WHO THE BLOODY HELL ARE YOU?' and all his friends around the table stare back at him and say that he thought he knew this new bloke, and that he was trying to help
annarti: and then there's a scene missing and it all goes properly dream-like when he and one of his friends try to break into a giant flower show at night charlie's angels style =/ so we ignore that
drazzi: XDDD;
annarti: BUT while inside the flower show thing, and it's strangely daytime and they're no longer in charlie's angels type clothes, they wander around~ and he's feeling really, really nervous about the flowers. his friend keeps constantly congratulating him about how long he's lasted in there, and he just keeps wishing he wouldn't come across any green flowers, cos HIS flower is green. i have NO idea what that means, but yeah. wanted to hug him then, too, cos he was so scared and alone and he kept trying to stop time and it wasn't WORKING and muu ._.
annarti: and that's about it
drazzi: we must learn moooore about him
drazzi: like what he looks like, for a start
annarti: i think he's younger than he looks tho, cos with all the stopping time, the world stops, but he doesn't stop aging, so with all the crying and feeling so scared he seems like he's maybe early teenager? but maybe he looks a couple years older, maybe early 20s
drazzi: Seems rational to me
annarti: minus the random charlie's angels breaking into a flower show bit XD;

Then I showed her lineart and she said his hair screams surfer to her, but from what little I know of him, his personality sure as hell doesn't XD; So, a surfer he is. Just to be unconventional X3

I like this boi. Keep toying with what all the stuff with green flowers and probably-not-human means and whatever, but he's a sweetie. I'mma keep him, see where he goes X3 Steal him for all those modern world based fics I'm supposed to write for various creative writing exercises at uni XD

DAYUM what pattern did you use for the pants XD? Looks FUNKY.

... Also his uh, lap-resting hand is in a kind of bad spot |D;. Or maybe I just have a dirty mind. REGARDLESS he is cool and I like this picture 8D.

Checks =D Like the pants everyone wears in the kitchen at the restaurant I work at =3 Only theirs are smaller.

And yeah, I kinda stuffed that arm and didn't realise until I'd inked it. Oops >>
