Wed, 17 Apr 2013 04:21:05 -0400

It took me a while to settle on a story that has just enough intro and not enough backstory to bog you down.

Something fun.

Julian Cassablanca and The Golden EP.

“I’m scared, I’m so scared. How are you not scared?”

“Do you know what the difference between a horror story and an adventure are?

Levity with a great sense of humor, and context. I’m already hilarious, so let’s go find our context.”

Julian goes through his Batman journey at the beginning of the book. We hint at a ton of things within the first few pages. Then we start the story. There’s a crazy something going on. I have some ideas, but I want to flux this a bit and see what I get.

For sure the villain is someone who wants to live forever. Mr Moon? Or is he fake Simone? But Melody Vague is only hinted at here and there in this one.

I know that for sure Bowie will be in parts, but I think that Jules might have a sidekick for this one.

“You want to live forever? Be alone. Time drags.”

Governor Slieze stands before the crowd at a podium.

G: …which is why it is my great pleasure to bring to the stage our new Director, Professor blank.

The crowd looks a bit shocked.The professor walks out. As he’s talking there are flash panels to images he watched on a computer of his family being abducted in the night.

P: I know a greater lot of you are surprised to see me as your acting director on this project. I understand the implications of what we are doing. But I also understand the need for a gamechanger. For results.

Later
The solider speaks to him.

S: To be honest, I’m a bit dissapointed you’re here. Last year I attended a lecture on ethics you held.

P: My family. My wife and child… my daughter… were kidnapped amidst a cleansing. I was off world at the time…

S: … I’m so sorry…

P: No, I should be thankful that they are still alive, but for the life of me I cannot shake my anger. Someone still has them. And all sources lead to the rebels. So it is my duty to do everything in my power to fight them, in the hopes that I might see my family.

S: I’m sure the government is doing everything they can to track them down-

P: As they’ve assured me. But this is a war. We need to beat them so if my family doesn’t come back to me, they can’t do this to another. I don’t need empty promises, and heroism is the emptiest.

S: I wouldn’t speak so soon.

The two are standing in a viewing area where they’re watching the children in a “play environment,” they built. It’s basically a large park. A bully has left a young girl crying, and a boy with a black eye. Coming to their aid is SCOUT, our main character. A young 6 year old boy who wears a blue shirt, with a yellow star in the middle. He stands before them and the BULLY.

Charater Profile Julian Cassablanca

Thu, 14 Feb 2013 22:40:34 -0500

It’s hard for me to figure out what stage he would be in when the book first started. If you give him too many flaws, it’s hard for him to be the kind of hero I was hoping he would be.
If you give him too few, he’s not interesting, I stick him in the, “Should die,” category.

He needs to be interesting.

My thought it was when he meets Melody Vague (our terminal event), he is scared. He knows she’s the love of his life. He absolutely knows it, but he runs. He runs because he doesn’t think he’s ready yet. I think this is a fantastically human trait.

He wants to sleep around a bit, he wants to meet new people, but he also thinks that maybe his heart isn’t ready to love again. Also, he doesn’t technically have his heart. So when he meets her, he runs off to grab it.

Julian is scared of Melody, he feels he hasn’t grown enough, and shouldn’t be in the relationship he’s ready to be in. So he runs. Most of the first arc/book is about him dealing with this, and then jumping into the wide unknown that is an adult relationship.

Nirosh and Spencer point at Ben, Ben Points at Gor’don.
G: Dammit. Okay, so I will look into the budget!! And I will be see if we can requisition funds for a new ranger, but I need you to go down to HR to get it cleared!

Lobbyist: Look, this little retreat is for all of our new members. It’s to show you what we’re all about, and for us to show you what we’re about. Take your time, we’re not going to judge. Pick a room, that fits your fancy.

*He sees other notable senators going into rooms with children in S&M gear. He walks into a room with a couple of ladies walking out. Sits there for a bit, but you can tell he’s bored. Two of the other men in there with him and throwing things at the women, shouting, with food in their mouths. Another one just staring at them, leering.

*He walks out.

*he walks into a room, there doesn’t seem to be anyone in. A half naked man, Chippendales quality, is dancing about in the room. He sits down. Starts getting comfortable. He starts slowly smiling. He feels… oddly right.

Later.

When someone dies, and I mean, not just everyday. Away from you. Out of sight out of mind. But when someone dies in front of you. Close to you. Within acting distance… it presents a fork.

The fork represents two different paths. Some people say it’s a defining moment, an explanation of who you are deep down. But I’d wager it an illusion. Its really a choice.

Do you get mad at the people and the reasons that person was killed?
Or do you war against the circumstances themselves?

Don’t get me wrong, I love comics. Big muscley super soldiery metaphors fighting nihilism, and concepts that only make sense when you’re this big.
Sorry buddy.

But it has it’s problems.

Spoiler alert, this is the issue where he comes back to life, and everything goes back to normal.

You don’t need to give up comics and wait a few years, slowly dying inside until you can finally enjoy them.

Which is why I gathered a crack team of dangerous, talented, and dangerously talented good lookers.
Its then we concocted a plan.

“why don’t we write comics.”

“that’s crack thinking, this melon’s going somewhere.”

*go back to him, caption: “he makes it.”

Americanized indie shonen jump-esque pulp adventure comics, harkening to an era where comics fought off randian hopeless archetypes.

We call it, “Shout Action! For adventure!!”

Now I know what you’re thinking. “indie comics!? It’s either sophnorically awful or hopelessly depressing.”

We’re neither. We grew up with a steady diet of Batman the animated series, and Pixar. When we got old enough we sharpened our edges on Weezer Pinkerton and the Arcade Fire. We’re the fans. We’re you, or you’re us!
We are particle pop.

Hi.

Script notes

Tue, 14 Aug 2012 23:50:43 -0400

Hello Kickstarter, AND INTERNET.
Hi and how are you?

Now that the plesantries are out of the way, here’s the elevator pitch.

“Shout Action! For Adventure!!”

A return to classic comics magazines. Hopeful stories, pixar-esque, golden age inspired, with manga influences.

And here’s the kicker: it’s free.

Particle Pop, it’s free comic book day everyday.

That’s an idiots slogan, but it’s true.

However we’re not Japanese, and to that end can’t churn out a manga book every week.

Nor are we the slave driving big two. DC HIRE ME FOR SUPERMAN.

ANd we’re certainly not releasing yearly either.

No, we’re a gentle caressing release date, who nurtures you.

We’re releasing seasonally. Every season you get a new issue, with 40 pages of book.

To that end I’ve assembled a crack team. MUSIC GO.

*Pictures of everyone*

To make books literally made of internet crack, so enticing, compelling, and thought provoking, they end this sentence in it’s tracks.

I know what you’re thinking, “But I want to read these books NAOW.” This is where our focus on making new friends and building a community comes in. We want you to submit one page comics, dialogues, mini comics, stories that have to do with our books, or just your own ideas.

Also we want you to buy t-shirts. But that comes later, and they look awesome.

At the end of the day, we’re all just people, like you. What are you working on Sweetheart Diamond Police?

K:Bruce Banner, Tony Stark Fan Fiction.

*Point at the screen, wink, teeth sparkle*

We’re providing value, we’re building a brand, but most of all we’re asking you to join our community. Particle Pop.

Notes, don't know where they go yet. Need to be gutted.

Oh thank you so much. Your “gentle” fondling of this project is making it much easier for me to oversee.

Beat.

Ah, I take it you don’t like me, Doctor?

STEWART

I am extremely grateful that you have given my family and myself asylum. However, don’t take it personally, I’m not the biggest fan of our Government in any capacity.

Well Doctor, let’s not forget that you are a part of the Government now. And these gifts we’ve given you are so easily tossed aside.

Julian Cassablanca and the Monarchy of Grief.

Wed, 25 Jul 2012 23:30:00 -0400

The scenario is Julian and Melody both get caught up in an accident in the floating castle of the Monarchy of Grief, and they were both called there because the King and Queen, wanted to set them up.

J: Hey guys! Um… This is a total mistake, I don’t know why I’m here. I’m here to see a friend.

Guard: YOU’RE HERE BECAUSE YOU HAVE BROKEN HEARTS, AND YOU HAVE A BROKEN HEART. YOU HAVE BROKEN THE LAWS OF MAGIC AND USED YOUR POWERS TO THIS END.

J: I CAME HERE TO SEE A FRIEND!

Julian is in a room with Mr. Moon.They’re both chained with their arms behind their backs. On a higher level, in front of them, is a glass window for viewing, with two guards behind it, talking through an intercom. It’s almost like a surgery viewing room. But for firing squads.

NOTE: Mr Moon is basically a villain from Simone. Simone’s ex, a twisted emotional manipulator, who thinks that making girls feel as bad as he did during his first break up is the only way to make them better people. SO he makes himself into the dream guy for any girl, only to break their hearts.

MM: Julian Cassablanca, as I live and breathe.

J: Moon.

MM:I heard you had become quite the lady killer.

Julian is trying to ignore Moon.

J:Hey if it’s all the same to you, I’d prefer to get shot in peace.

MM: You sure you don’t want to talk shop? One heartbreaker to another?

Julian is close up to the guards.

J:HEY! GUARD-Y DUDES? Can I get another firing squad?

We see a backed up shot where Julian is floating above the ground.

J: Please?

MM: Oh Jules, don’t be that way. I just wanted to know what you did to Simone.

Julian puts his head down in dissapointment. He charges at him, screaming.

He’s promptly thrown into another cell. His shirt’s a little ripped, and he has a black eye with a bleeding lip.

J: Thank you so much! But also, can I talk to the King? I’m telling you this is…

M:…A HUGE MISTAKE.

Behind him, Melody vague, is floating, almost doing the same thing he did, to another guard. He looks up at her, and recognizes her. FLASHBACK. (To him seeing Melody years ago.)

__________

J:How Liz Lemon are you?

M: What kind of question is that… The MOST Liz Lemon.

K:Hey, you two actually have alot in common. Fun fact, neither of you are connected to fate.

M: No way! How did it happen to you?

J: Freak accident, glitch in reality. Terrible first date conversation.

M: Oh so we’re on the same page about what this has become?

J: As long as you tell me how you’re not connected to fate?

M: Buy a girl a drink first!

J: How many?

M: As many as it takes to kick it out of me.

Q: Get a room!

K: Hey guys, fun story too… sorry, we’ve been a little unorganized today. As it turns out, we were kind of burglarized.

J: What’d they take?

K: So as you know, we here at the Monarchy of grief help people overcome their sorrow. Then on the off chance that they don’t, we can take their hearts, and hold onto them until that person is ready to take it back on.

Q: As we did with you two.

They turn and look at each other.

J: Really?

M: You two?

*They turn back, stare at the King and Queen, and comically give each other a high five without looking at each other*

K: You two see where this is going?

J: I’m an adventurer archetype. Two fisted. I solve problems with these.

*Points to his muscles… which aren’t very impressive*

M: Yeah, Adventurer/Rogue type. Sci-fi. Time Traveler.

*Points to her camera, which is also her time machine, and also points to the goggles around her neck*

Q:… Your hearts. It was a heart heist.

J and M: WHAT?!

Thu, 19 Jul 2012 21:37:44 -0400

Julian Cassablanca, you’re here?

Moon.

Ha! i’d heard you’d become quite the heartbreaker.

Excuse me, can I have another firing squad?

It’s not a firing squad!

Fate’s got it out for you buddy.

Why?

*Kiss*

Because of that. I’m your future girlfriend Jules. Find me.

*She uses her camera to dissappear in time*

What…

*Simone Apples walks out*

Julian! There you are sweetheart, the bathroom line was horrible. We’re going elsewear.

WHAT?!

Melody Vague...

Thu, 19 Jul 2012 02:48:36 -0400

My mom will never come up again in this story. We had our time together, I grew up. I still call her from time to time, and have a talk about how life is. But she’s an outside observer. A foil, if you will.

Growing up my mom raised my on a steady diet of conservative television personalities and Jesus. As I grew up, reason won out to fanaticism.

We had a big fight once. She tried to convince me that a certain major able news network was trying to save us all with the truth. I tried to explain that no matter how loud you yelled an opinion, it doesn’t make it truer. I didn’t leave the house in a puff that night. I didn’t even leave for another year. But it set me on a path.

To me, it was never a fight about good VS evil. To me, it’s about fear VS hope.

And to me, the only option is FEAR.
Batman uses it. My mum responded to it. BWA HA HA!

But no, in case you can’t read sarcasm, I’m a hope kind of gal.

Guilty Conscience of the Universe: samamanthacox: xvxavier: If you’re a “nice guy” to a girl up until you...:

Nooshdog:

Gotta disagree. Partial-Truth bomb. Only effective using Internet logic. Can be slightly effective IRL but only because in truth, girls and guys date all the wrong people in this endless serendipitous cycle of cosmic heartbreak. =)

Hey Noosh, it’s your buddy Tommy.

You’re kind of wrong on this one. Mantha had to catch it for me, and we really need to talk. But what you’re saying is kind of a smoke screen pal.

And there is truth to be said that someone on the outside has a better view of things, but this isn’t always the case. Relationships, love, romance, these are all things that need to be experienced first hand.

People don’t date the wrong people, they’re just not ready. And it’s not an endless cycle of cosmic heartbreak as much as it’s preparing us for future successes. Also if we’re going to get a bit further into it, I’d almost say it isn’t so much about the wrong person as it is the wrong time.

People change, it’s as base a rule of living as your can get. Just because someone isn’t ready for a relationship earlier in life with a person, doesn’t mean they won’t be perfect for each other later.
Also, somebody might be perfect for you now, but might change into someone you can barely recognize.

Either way, point is, we’re having a phone conversation, pick up your phone.

Mon, 25 Jun 2012 03:14:14 -0400

Melody has no heart. It was taken by… Something.

The different magics are fractured and can’t affect each other. If you’re a hero in adventure, you’re not a hero in mystery.

“we can make it work.”

Brace yourself for exposition.

Two accidents.

*Melody and Julian Floating in, staring at each other, completely infatuated with one another. The is sparkling*

The world produces alot of people, and Julian Cassablanca’s singular purpose was to die. His entire life he was set up for failure, death waiting on his shoulder at all times. Until fate figured out how to use him. Julian became a sacrificial lion.

Melody vague, however, was born an anomaly. From trimester one she had no connection to fate, no strings leading her where to go.

*There needs to be an image of her walking through a park, and tons of people with spirit like strands connecting to the sky.*

Fate, afraid of what this could mean also marked her for death, but due to her unpredictable nature, this was a bit hard to pin down.

**
Jules, don’t look! You can’t look at me yet. I’m your girlfriend from the future.

Here. I need you to find me.

And that set him on a future that irrevocably change the world.

Dude, are you giving an establishing introductory monologue?

Unlike you, I’m still connected to fate! I didn’t even realize!! Jules, Mel, this is bad. Somethings happening. Jules are you…

Oh no… vibrating…

*Melody smiles*
*Then winks and points with a gun finger at his crotch*

*Julian winks back*
*The two stare at each other infatuated*
