What? He doesn't need to be kept in check; he's well behaved. :3

Contest Announcement!

Okay, this is rare, because usually I'll let the owner of the CoS choose the song, but there are a couple of boys here that really, really want to be drawn, and have no owner!

So how am I going to decide who they go to? A contest!

There's also a background story to this contest:
I was batting around playlists of music with some friends, when someone put on a beastie boys tune, and I commented that it would be great music if they'd sing in English [meaning in non-slang] - so someone challenged me to do better.

Challenge Accepted!

I 'translated' the lyrics into 'proper' English, and laughs were had by all.
Your job? Give me the songs that I'm 'translating' the lyrics from to earn points. Each point acts as a raffle ticket - which goes toward a drawing during the month of June.

This contest will continue until JUNE 5th, with my posting between three and six new 'translations' a day. First to get the name of the song, the artist, and what the lyrics I've translated really say is the one that gets the point / ticket.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO OWN A COS TO PARTICIPATE. But if you do, other prizes are on the line, such as the first Breeding in the shop, a chance to roll over your CoS to the next level, and so on.

The boys that refuse to get out of my head come from varying songs, and will be posted as I finish them. If you take a liking to any of them, feel free to enter! But remember there are other prizes too! And a nice chunk of change and some runes [between 10 to 20] for referrals, at 1 point per referral [for people that actually participate] We need more people here and talking!

"Example Song"


PM ME THE ENTRIES. DO NOT POST THEM IN THE THREAD.

ANNOUNCEMENT 2!

I will be revamping the first page entirely with some new information, new questions, and the entire backstory to these guys. Also, I will be creating a 'free forum' for RP if I get enough interest in it - and the link to that, if it happens, will be in the first post as well. The Gallery and Pickup posts will be cleaned up as well [since apparently I can't stick to a size to save my life], and the entire 'Shop Front' will be, hopefully, neater and easier to understand by the time I'm done.

*does happy dance; got a point!*

Rinni won Song #1 today, so that's one's taken. 2 and 3 [and later, 4 and 5] are still up for grabs!

Also - lots of changes. Owner's list made, pickups simplified, backstory typed out, and *GASP* an actual shop NPC! Ai is mine, however, and should be treated as such, although he's not on the owner's list.

*steals Ai*

*runs awaaaay*

STOP STEALING PEOPLE!
It's not nice. And Ai can't be stolen.

Heya ouo? //pops in

Hiya~ How you doing, Asami?
How's Sai?

I am the manry-est of men!

Nikko! Hi!
How you doing? *Wags at*

*is here to pick up Vayt*

*also claims victory for contest #2*

Yup! Song #2 has been guessed, and the point awarded~
I've moved you to the owner's list!

Take good care of him, yeah? ^^

EDIT:
As Sheol just found out - if you want a smaller version of your boy, for putting in your sig - just TELL me. I'll do them free-of-charge. XD

Ah! Music Box by Thrice. One of my most FAVORITE songs! I play it almost everyday on the way to work lol! I'll have to come back here and order one based on another Thrice song that I love when I have more time!

-steals my song child and runs away- <3

Dun run away! Stay! Staaaaay! Please? We're all lonely. XD

Ai rummaged around the CoS basecamp, thinking to himself just how very lonely it was not to have anyone to talk to. Not as lonely as being abandoned, but still... He found a sheet of paper [his size, thankfully], and started writing down some lyrics to a song he'd been working on. Just because he was on his second life didn't mean he couldn't still write songs for himself.

"Let's see... When the rain comes down in spades, I hope you know my name - I'm the one that left you there, inside the jaded cage... Yeah, that sounds about right..."

EDIT:
If you would like to start a CoS roleplay in the roleplay section, please use this format:

[M][CoS]*Your Title Here*

This is to make it easier for me to search, and also to denote it as a shop roleplay. Have fun with your CoS guys!

*sits on arris head*

*sits on a DK's head who is on an Arri's head* ^--^

your a flea! 8D *pokes*

How's your CoS doing, guys?
Event continues for a while, so... thinking caps on!

Dorsha: Doing just fine, dearie. Doing just fine... *grins*

Me: *hiding in DK's hair*

Lahk is.. partying hard ouo,

-looks around- My, I wonder where all those little twerps run off to to leave things so quiet...

Don't see how it matters.

... Fair enough. -fixes tea-

Dorsha: *takes some tea, doesn't mind helping himself*

-scrunches nose- Impatient folks, aren't we? -shakes head- Go ahead, help yourself.

Don't see why you're so surprised. -munches biscuit-

Oi! I'm not, it's just disappointing.

Dorsha: Who cares what kind of tea? Tea is tea, just enjoy it. *downs tea like it's a shot glass, getting more*

Tea is most certainly not tea. And if you chug it like some drunk, there's no way you can appreciate properly. Honestly, absolutely no class around there. -mumblemutter-

Great, now you got him started. Thanks.

Dorsha: Eh, everyone appreciates things in different ways I suppose. And you dare to call me classless? I am hurt, I'll have you know. I have quite a hand at class and finesse, especially when blades are involved.

Yeah, sure. Sounds good. -wanders after Ai-

Well, forgive me if your first impression is misleading, but that's your fault, not mine.

Dorsha: You know what they say; don't judge a book by it's cover, dearie. *smirks*

... Strange. -shrugs- But alright, I guess. Ain't got any complaints.

Mhm. -crosses arms- When conversation starts, we've moved past the cover and onto chapter one. I hope you're aware.

Dorsha: Point....huh, well, I might have had a bit of a slip. But I'm sure that's nothing a little persuasion couldn't fix. *grins*

I'm sure. Best of luck with that.

Creepy. What d'you mean, in a good way or bad or what?

Dorsha: Don't think I'll be needing it, love, but thanks for the sentiment anyway. *smirks, sips tea*

And that attitude's exactly why you're going to need as much as you can get.

Was, or is? Makes a big difference.
