It's My Birthday

Today is one of those days. I'm sure you've all had them. When you just can't seem to convince yourself to muster any effort into anything. because you haven't a bit of energy in you. Nothing you eat tastes like it has any flavor, and things that would normally entertain you seem dull and uninteresting.

On days like these, thoughts of suicide become very frequent in one's mind. In my mind. Because since nothing I think about has any feeling to it, all of the bad thoughts and memories just manage to stand out more than usual. I know I won't do it, at least I hope I won't, but it's very hard not to think about. It's strange, I'm normally a very happy person. I'm the kind of person that can wake up in the morning and see how clear the sky is, and from that little detail alone, my entire day suddenly has a very positive outlook. And yet, on days like these, all of those happy memories just don't seem to matter anymore.

One quote sticks out quite strongly in my mind on days like these. Frederick Nietzsche once said, "Thoughts are the shadows of our feelings; always darker, emptier, and simpler."

I hope you're right, Nietzsche. I hope that under all these shadowy thoughts of mine, there lies the feelings they once resembled.

Also, can you believe Today is my birthday? What an odd day to be having such a feeling. What an odd day.

Thoughts and Words

Anyone who says Good and Evil do not exist do so on the premise that they cannot be concretely defined. That one simply finds it difficult to describe what is good and what is evil does not mean neither exists.

"Kissing isn't difficult. It's just like holding hands. You draw them close, press firmly, and then let go."

Characters

To be expounded upon with further detail in later times. Not all characters necessarily within the same stories.

Kendel Wick the Wicked
A revolutionary man of science and magic alike. Most well known for his achievements in the field of "Dual Splicing," mixing scientific technology with magic. Born and raised with an ordinary upbringing, it was his thirst for knowledge and egomania that blinded him from seeing the chaotic repercussions that his creations would have.
Known creations:
Witch Fire- The only known flame able to burn witches. Created using a combination of biological engineering and an understanding of the process used in witch's magic known as Empathy.
Kendels- A simple firecracker, a creation of Kendel's more innocent times.
Undead Plague- Infusing the biological zombie causing virus with necromancy to create undead both loyal to a Mage overseer, as well as capable of converting its enemies into allies through the spread of the virus.

Sebban Thane the Sinner
A sinner residing in Hell. In life he was a simple banker, but he dabbled with illegal underground dealings and used his connections to give pension to women with financial woes in exchange for sex. He grows particular affection for one of these woman, but she eventually reveals to the underground companies he works for that he's been siphoning their money for his own pleasure. Seemingly without hesitation, he kills her in order to cover his tracks, but before he can even run he is killed on the spot by a hired gun sent by his company, dying side by side with the woman he might have loved. Now he resides in hell, and like every other sinner, wonders if there is a way out.
Greatest fear: Losing his legs, specifically anything to do with the knees.

Flo Xen the Perfectly Broken Sword
A slave from across the sea. He traveled the world in order to better hone his swordsmanship, only to lose his sword and be forced into servitude as a simple laborer. His captors recognize the prowess of his swordsmanship, and will temporarily give him back his sword from time to time if it benefits them. His swordsmanship is unrivaled, but without a sword he is helpless. His captors have noted how odd it is that despite his clearly broad knowledge of martial arts, he refuses to fight without his sword. This is due to a punishment placed upon him by his swordmaster.
