About the Event

Image

I’m. . . . still working on it.

This month has literally been hell for me. From the extreme stress of lack of work to the extreme stress of my boss suddenly taking a three-month emergency leave of work. It’s been crazy and all I’ve done is drown myself in self-loathing instead of working on the event. It’s been a year, and I want to complete this event not only for all of you but for myself also.

I have been battling with myself about starting to write this and it’s not like I don’t want to but there is a strong shame to my work that I’m steadily pushing past to attempt to give everyone the content they deserve. Right now? It’s feeling like a class paper that I decided not to do until the last minute. No way these things are going to be as long and as powerful as I was hoping for, causing them to bleed out into next month. I’ll have to hold off on any other activities until it’s completed. Let’s hope I can do without the stress relievers in the meantime because I know I’m going to be in a terrible mood for the next couple of weeks. And then there’s the next open world for Warframe coming out next month.

I had originally planned for this to not be too crazy, and it kind of did its own thing over time. Adding a lot of character development and a lot of pressure to complete this. Now, d-don’t worry. I don’t intend on quitting. I want you all to know how this turns out for Ennis. And for Vox and Bishop since I left you all on a cliffhanger. I’m really sorry about that . . .

EVENT UPDATING SOON!

CHRIST IT’S BEEN A YEAR

Uh hi, folks! I know I haven’t completed the event, but life has been kind of positive but also with its ups and downs as well. Well, since the holiday season of Halloween is upon us, I really should get back to last year’s Halloween event and attempt to finish it. Work was getting really well, but around this time it always slows down right before Halloween and into the Black Friday/Blue Saturday season. So I’ll have a lot of time to complete this story and everyone can see how this concludes!

I feel like a Fanfiction writer that leaves a story not updated for a year and expect people to still be on board :/ 

But don’t worry! Vox and the others aren’t out of the woods yet!

I just wanna say, Bitten, you're absolutely amazing and make me Smitten! (puns amirite) But on the serious side of things, your writing is as beautiful as I remember and it means a lot to see you still buzzing around being absolutely AWESOME!!! Time flies when things carry on without ya, but maybe one of these days I can show you how much you mean to me as a friend and a guiding character in my life. Above everything else I want to say one thing. I'm so sorry. And I should have said so sooner.

Wait, wait, wait! WHO SENT ME THIS!? TRISTAN!? KURA?! KELLY!? WHO IN THE HECKY IS THIS?! I DEMAND ANSWERS! 

A-as for the kind words, I really appreciate them. As for being a guiding character, I don’t know if that’s me, but I certainly try to be a good person when I can be. Hhhhhh how did I not how this was here. I’m grinning ear to ear! It means so much to me that you feel I’m a good writer! I try my best though. Don’t let it fool you. Even I’m still growing as a writer and I feel bad because I have been in a nasty slump these days with Vox. But fear not! He’s been waking up lately which means I can soon get back to the event that I had to place on Hiatus and reply to people that have been waiting on me! All of my asks will be answered and I will try my best to get to everyone! Eheheh. . . . of course, I may be dead inside after this week. I have a 36 hour week coming up due to two of our Managers going to SDCC this year for work. Fear not though! I will try not to burn myself out on top of everything else too!

With lots of Love!-Bitten

Event Hiatus

Due to some personal problems, I'll be putting the event on hiatus until further notice. No worries, I will continue and end the event but there are things that I need to do in order to get the focus needed to complete this event. For those that really like Ennis, I will allow people to talk to them as if the event is over. I know that people like the character, making me quite happy. Apologies for the event hiatus

Automatic [Closed]

Arthur rubbed at his face to clear the perspiration as he worked, smearing grease against his cheek in a small black streak. He had just finished using an old trick he’d learned, to get the dents out of one of the android’s legs. He’d carefully replaced the synthetic skin he’d needed to remove to get to the hard skeletal frame beneath, making sure the skin was as seamless as possible.  
He wasn’t paying full attention to the android’s face, tinkering now with some exposed wires across the left pectoral. He jumped nearly a mile when there was a whirring sound he didn’t expect, like a soft hum of life, and he jerked back the wrist with his soldering iron. Had he hit something he hadn’t meant to there? 
His flinch intensified when the android spoke, whipping his head up to look at their eyes; they were a little higher placed than his own eight, still hooked against the wall because they were unable to hold themself up. Maybe he’d finally managed to fix the problem that kept the android from coming online. It was looking at him from it’s perch. He swallowed, a tad nervous.
“Uh, well….I’m not really your owner, um- Vox. But my name is Arthur. Arthur Kingsmen.” He had the odd inclination to reach out and shake their hand, but held it in, given they were currently hooked to the wall. Instead he started working to free them. “Uh….do you know….erm- what was the last date you have logged? Do you know how long you’ve been powered down?”

The android was surprised when the other flinched at his speaking, eyes changing a vibrant cyan color at his own surprise before moving back a little. He hadn’t expected to wake up in such a manner. The last thing he remembered was being tired and falling asleep. When was that? 2,372.5 days. His attention remained on the other, noticing his change in heart rate. Was he nervous? There were more questions than answers to be had before the other introduced himself.

Vox took a moment, listening to Arthur as he spoke, registering his vocal range before blinking and giving him his full attention as he was released from the wirings that hooked him to the wall. It took him a minute to register his answer, his systems still warming up from their previous chill.

“Last log date was 1,820 days ago” He stated flatly. “Last charge was 2,555 days ago. Would you like to hear the last audio log recorded?” 

Vox continued to study the mechanic closely. He couldn’t exactly move at the moment, so he wasn’t able to turn his head completely to face him. There was a shift of gears as he rose one hand curiously, examining the way his own joints moved. They moved fluidly like normal human hands. If the other hadn’t gone through and looked at all the dents he had, one would think he was a normal human.

UPDATE

Quick note here. I do apologize for not updating at a sooner date. I wanted to thank @crosshonneonna and @arthur-tristan-kingsmen for the help looking this over before posting! I will be coming back to these. 6 or 7 more installments are coming out, but feel free to send in asks related to the event again as I will be answering them once more!

“Why are there two of you?” Ennis asked as they looked at the pair beings standing beside one another. One of flesh and the other of spirit. Both appeared to have the same face, same build, same eyes. There was little difference between them aside from their respective current states and how they carried themselves.

my muse will…
kiss your muse.

Lewis looked at the dice and then looked at Vox allowing a grin to curl his lips as he gently caught the underside of his chin with a large finger, directing his head upwards towards him. The ghost slowly closed the gap between them as glowing dual-colored eyes never took their eyes off the white-haired male. Finally, he’d leaned in so much that their lips were mere centimeters apart and stayed like that for a couple of moments before he breathed against Vox’s lips in a low whisper, “ Well.. the dice say to kiss you..”

And then, he seemed to consider something allowing their lips to brush just the slightest bit before he moved his own away and decided to let his lips touch skin on the very corner of Vox’s lips. He chuckled and pulled away completely then shooting the other a wink.

“ Though.. they didn’t say how.”

Vox looked down to the dice when they ended their roll. Almost instantly he knew that Lewis was instantly amused by the turn of events. Here Vox was hoping to learn something about the other or make a joke for a later time. Before he could say anything though, he felt the finger below his chin and looked up at Lewis, teal eyes shifting blue in their curious haze. His sight faltered for a moment as he felt hot breath against his lips.

Waiting for the expected kiss, he shivered at the gentle brush of their lips before the kiss pressed fully at the corner of his lips. When Lewis pulled away, his eyes stayed blue for a bit longer before shifting back to teal. Cheeks flushed slightly before he attempted to hide it behind his hat.

“I knew you were going to enjoy this too much” He muttered.
