Mynx

On the other side of the Pen grounds, Mynx lifted her head as she heard a tiger's roar. I wonder...no...it can't be she thought to herself, shaking her head. Moments later, she heard Wyvern cry out and decided to have a look at the Garden Party... The Tiger was in the process of demolishing the snack counter's contents when he heard a familiar voice. "I don't believe it! TOM?" Turning, Tom let out a roar of happy surprise. "Mynx! What are you doing here?!" "I live here now silly," laughing, Mynx tacklehugged the tiger and the two tumbled over each other in the friendly tiger way of saying hello. Calming down, Mynx tilted her head at her friend. "But what on earth are you doing here?" Tom shrugged. "Just travelling, smelled something good, you know how it is..." Eventually, the pair became aware of Venexyatu staring at them. "You two...know each other?" he finally asked. "Yeah," Mynx grinned. "We went hunting together for a little bit when I first got turned into a cat." "Uhh guys?" Sweet called out from her position by Wyvern. "Little help?"

Mynx grinned widely to herself as she showed up at the Cabaret Room carrying a large duffel bag. Smiling and waving as she saw Zariah, Mynx headed to the kitchen to change into her waiting gear for the event. A few moments later, Mynx returned in an exceedingly interesting choice of outfit: white leg warmers, orange hot pants, a tight white t shirt, hair tied back in a ponytail, and a pair of owls, one on each shoulder. Zariah blinked at her feline friend, before she burst out laughing. "Oh, that's brilliant!" she laughed. "But why the owls?" "Copyrights," Mynx stated simply, continuing to grin. As if on cue, the pair of owls both let out an identical 'Hoot', causing the rest of the Room's inhabitants to look up in surprise while Zariah doubled over with hysterical laughter. Still grinning, Mynx tilted her head. "Think the guys will like it?"

Loved it LoveditLOVEDIT! *grins* Gonna see it as many times as I can afford...hehehehehe....

Ok maybe I'm just blind but...has the Quest been started? If so, where's the thread? ~Tired and confused kitty

Well I am still very much a beginner at learning the language, and this activity we had been given came with a structure to help those who weren't too poetically inclined. It went as follows: Line 1: One noun Line 2: Two adjectives Line 3: Three verbs Line 4: Four words about the topic Line 5: One noun - summarise

It was an interesting structure to write in...

Johnny massaged the side of his face as he struggled to hide just how much Jessica's slap really hurt. He knew he'd deserved it though. "Why are you telling me this now?" Jessica asked. "You've won your money, you get to go home and spend it. Why bother telling me how much you screwed me over?" Johnny blushed uncomfortably and looked down at his hands. "I...like you," he finally managed. Jessica blinked in surprise - this was not something she was used to hearing. "I feel really bad for the way I misled you," Johnny continued, "and, well, I was wondering if you'd be willing to give me another chance when we got off the island." He looked up and smiled sheepishly at Jessica's rather stunned expression. "Um, would you like to go to dinner with me?" Jessica sat there rather stunned, before managing to clear her throat and get a few words out. "Uh, yeah. I'd like that." Johnny smiled at her, before standing. "I'd better get back to the ceremony crap. I'll see you on the plane?" Jessica smiled and nodded. "Thanks," she said, blushing slightly, for once not faking her reaction. As Johnny turned to leave, he heard one final statement fomr Jessica as he opened the door. "Don't you dare gyp me off with a cheap restaurant!" He laughed as he walked back to join Zak. He'd have been surprised if he hadn't heard that from Jessica...

I'll go in as a waitress *grins*

Too tired to think of anything imaginative for this but it has to be said anywho... HAPPY BIRTHDAY OZYMANDIAS!!!!!! *tacklehugs the (absent?) Loremaster*

Mynx creeps in to watch the show, trying to utilise the shadows as much as possible so as not to be drawn into the game, but still enjoying the antics she sees playing out. Conjuring a chair and some popcorn, Mynx sits down to watch, tail twitching in enjoyment as she continues to hope she does unnoticed... OOC: Happy birthday! *tacklehugs* Hope you have a great day/week/month/year/decade/lifetime!

Uh... *points at Zariah* Not me, ep

I second Appy, Z. Not only is this a poem, it's a very good one. I know what it's like to have an absent muse, but if this is your poetry without inspiration, I'd love to see what it's like when your muse is in full flow!

Most of the crew and all of the contestants heard Jessica's angry shriek as she found Dan's little 'gift' in her cabin. Moments later, three very stunned looking snakes go flying out the window and crash into a tree, before hitting the floor and sliding off in a daze. Jessica stormed out of the cabin, anger radiating from her. She had had it. Losing the game so early was bad enough - even her brain could grasp the fact that her future was non existant - but to have some act as bad as some of the girls she had been up against? Unaware of the cameraman who had picked up his camera to follow as she stormed through the bush, for once ignorant of its' treatment on her clothes, Jessica crashed through the bush until, by sheer luck, she found Dan sunning himself on a rock. He looked up and grinned at her. "Well hello," he drawled, getting up to walk over to Jessica. "Get my little pre-" SMACK!!!> Stumbling back in shock, Dan raised his hand to the side of his face, already red and starting to swell a little from the surprisingly hard slap the beauty princess had dished out. Before he could react, Jessica had turned and stormed off, leaving him with a rather clear handprint on the side of his face. The cameraman stopped Jess and shook her hand as she left, tears of laughter streaming down his face as he promised her a tape of the footage.

Damn!

I remain thankful that I am yet to be a mother, but that does not cause me to begrudge this day. *grins* Happy Mother's Day to all those courageous souls who have more gall than I!

"Of course I'm not okay. I hate your guitar. If I'd wanted to share a room with an irritating lump of wood I'd have moved in with an Australian soap star." Arnold Rimmer ~ Red Dwarf

Jessica's eyes lit up. "Oooooh!" she gushed, "one we could share would be wonderful...if you don't mind?" As she stood there fluttering her eyes, it was quite apparent that unless she was left with absolutly no choice, she wouldn't be raising a finger to help build the shelter...

When Jessica saw Johnny flirting with that Pansy girl, she snarled silently in annoyance. Oh no you don't! she thought, He's MINE!. Johnny was in a middle of his conversation when he heard a candy sweet voice filter over from Jessica; "Oh Johnneeee!" Before he could react, Jessica had practically draped herself around him, looking up at him with very wide eyes, her position giving him a very nice view of her cleavage. "Could you come and help me with that little ol' shelter-building thingee? I just get so confused with all these instructions!" "Uh, sure thing," Johnny murmered, male instincts kicking in. As Jessica led him away, she cast a cold glare over her shoulder at Pansy, before turning back to Johnny, "I don't know why you'd want to talk to someone like her..."

Typical. I write a poem about eyes, and then you upshow me with a better one Very nice, my friend I love it

Jessica let out a shriek of terror, grabbing the snake by its tail and, with remarkable force, hurling it away back after Dan. What then spouted out of her pretty little mouth was some of the foulest language any of the contestants had ever heard, later to be screened on TV as mostly one long censored beep. Some of the contestants looked at each other in surprise at this reaction, while Jessica slowly ran out of words and stood there, panting angrily. So far, she was NOT happy with the situation. It was sheer luck that a past agent had made her learn at the very least the basics of a range of sports for the more physical pageants, enabling Jessica to handle the canoe well enough to at least not finish last. Jessica had hated all of the lessons, and detested that area of pageants, but tolerated it when she had to. But then she hears that they have to make their OWN shelter? What was this? Girl scouts? Nuh uh. Dan's trick had been the final straw, letting loose a well of frustration that had been building up within the snarky pageant Princess. Finally calming down, Jessica went in search of Johnny...Maybe if she acted pitiful enough in front of him he'd help build her shelter...or let her share his...

Awesome, my friend. Very beautiful. I loved them both

Jessica wiped the fake tears that she had been brewing at the corners of her eyes and smiled 'prettily' at Johnny - the cute guy she had been eyeing up - as he offered the spare space of his bag to her aid. She began packing a few things into it, hoping quietly that this would provide an excuse to sit next to him on the plane. She was about to start asking him about what he did when the weird army guy - Dan? - came up and began chatting to her. Forcing a smile while her mind cringed at his terrible fashion sense, Jessica dug out a few items that were already wrapped in plastic to protect them from whatever germs and icky things lurked in the bag Dan held out and shoved them to him to pack away. Smiling once more at Johnny, she flipped her hair and turned back to the scales to finally receive a cleared weigh-in, her mind failing to notice the expressions of the customs officers and the show manager who had caught glances at her 'essentials' The cameraman looked back at his friend and mirrored the grin. "$20"

Mynx grins at her opponents from beneath her hat, once again thankful for the ability with which she can appear absolutely expressionless...if a little smug. Raising a paw to a passing waitress, Mynx orders herself a White Russian, demurely drinking from it when it arrived as the feline carefully watched the rest of the players, trying to determine their hands through their eyes, while at the same time hiding hers beneath her hat...

All through lunch, Jessica had been trying to catch the eye of one of the male contestants...what was his name again? Johnny? She wasn't certain but he looked cute enough for her standards...and the way he acted made her wonder if he had money. To Jessica Casey, it wasl always about the money. As soon as they got in view of the cameras, Jessica flipped her hair, stuck her chest out and adopted her sexiest, most outgoing pose. It was not really surprising when two of the (male) cameramen immediately tried to focus on the aspiring model's Micro-Mini and Nano-Top. Oblivious to the conversations behind her back (What on earth is she wearing? Does she really think she'll survive this game? Gee, I wonder how easy she is...), Jessica trundled her pink suitcase up to the customs officer and waited for it to be weighed... ...Half the airport heard the screech that ensued. "What do you mean I've got too much?! This is the BARE essentials!" While two of the customs officers began going through Jessica's suitcase with the aid of one of the show manageers to see what could be removed, the sound guy attached to camerman #1 grinned and elbowed his partner. "$10 says she'll be gone before midnight." (OOC: feel free here to ridicule or [if you so feel the need] help Jessica out. Anyone truly generous can offer her some spare sneakers and other 'normal' clothes but just remember that if you do, you're unlikely to get thanks due to the complete lack of fashion sense she will see in them )
