Falifa: Bio

I got the idea for Falifa a few hours ago. Lol.

Name: Falifa

Age: Newborn to young fawn

Description: Normal fawn appearance, but with a lighter brown underbelly and small black hooves and nose. Her eyes are rimmed with white circles. She has two large notches/scars on her right ear (see history.) She has dark brown eyes. She has two faint dark brown stripes on each of her bottom legs that will become clearer with time.

Personality: Falifa is very sweet and playful, and has a somewhat achingly fragile aura about her. However, she is also shy and quite quiet, content to follow along with whatever others are doing. It will take a lot to break her out of her shell, mostly because she is afraid of what the others think of her scars. Is scared that others will tease her and call her a freak. However, she is very kind and sweet to her friends and will always try to make them feel better.

History: Her parents came from outside the forest, but had visited it once before. Falifa was born while her parents were looking for a good place to stay. She was told that she had a sister in the forest, but her parents didn`t know what happened to her. After almost being attacked by a some sort of creature, the family decided that it would be best to stay in the forest for a little while, before moving on. However, just as they getting close to the forest, the creature attacked them again. It scarred Falifa`s right ear, and was about to kill the fawn before her father saved her. He nearly died himself to save her. Now, Falifa`s family lives in the forest- for now. One of the familys main goals to find Falifa`s older sister, who lives in the forest currently, and bring her with them to search for places beyond when they leave again.

Family: Father (Raik) Mother (Kentara) (May have a future brother named Kenzi.... lol Smiling)
And an unknown older sister.....

Since I explode upon going near CSS, I just typed this up the manual way. Lol Sticking out tongue

Coming Home: Oneshot

NOTE: Poppy`s teen/adult appearance does not match her in-game appearance. Although this probably won`t come up in the story. Or maybe it will. lol Smiling


I stepped through a poppy patch today, I look different.

I wonder....

For the first part of my morning, that was my biggest concern. I was so excited...

I can`t wait for you to-

Oh.

Wait. Nevermind.

Or...?

Is that your scent I smell on the breeze?

You came...

You came back?

You came back. You came back!

I knew you would! I`m so excited!

Where have you been? What did you do? What happened?
What happened?

I must know. Unless... should I not ask?

It`s ok though.

But you must never leave me again. I`ll have to tell you that.

Where ever you go from now on, I go with you. Because your my friend.
My friend.

I CAN smell your scent on the breeze, almost HEAR YOU whisper through the ferns.

I wonder if you`ll be different. I`m different too.

At least, on the outside.

I`m happy now.... I can feel you coming back...

You`ve finally come home.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Welcome home, Orinoco. Smiling

You Were Always On My Mind. (aka another oneshot of doom)

I`m so sorry.

My fawn.

You didn`t deserve this. The way I treated you. Or didn`t treat you.

I`m so sorry I ignored you. You deserved more, my sweet. My precious.

You`re so special to me. And I don`t think I realized it until you were gone.

When you disappeared. And I haven`t seen you since.

I remember when you used to be a sweet little fawn. My sweet little fawn.

Yet I ignored you. I payed more attention to trivial things then to the most important thing in the world.

I can`t say I pretended not to see the hurt in your eyes.

I can`t believe I just
pushed
You
away
like that.

Please give me one more chance. Even though I don`t deserve it.

Let me make you mine again. This time, I`ll give you everything you want. Everything you need.

Please. I don`t want to watch your eyes fade from a bright, happy bliss to a cold, lonely emptyness.

Let me make them bright again.

Please?


Here`s the song that the oneshots based off of. Wow, this one is short, lol:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJtBXW4abRI

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So basicially the oneshot is about a mother who ignored her fawn, and the fawn, feeling sad and lonely wihtout his/her mother`s love, ran off. Now, the mother feels immensely guiltly, and realizes what she has done to her child. She wishes that she had shown her baby how much she truly loved him/her, and hopes that she can have one last chance to show her love.

I`ll Wait Till The End If I Have To. (oneshot)

Hello?

Where have you gone?

Where did you go, my friend?

I`ve searched and searched the forests for you... but I haven`t found you yet.
At first, I thought maybe you were playing hide and seek.

I know you like to do that.

But, I knew there was something on your mind.

Even as we danced and played and leapt and pranced...

You where thinking about something else, weren`t you? There was something on your mind.

You could have told me. I want to help you. You`re my friend.

I miss you.

Where did you go? Somehow I know you`re still out there.
It frightens me to think you`ve wandered from the forest. Though, I know that there`s other places beyond here. My parents came from somewhere different...I think...

You`ve, haven`t you? I`ll know you`ll return, but...
I`m worried about you.

I don`t know why you`ve left, but I`ll wait for you.

I promise, I`ll wait for you. Until the end, if I have to.

I want you to come back, but I know you left for a reason, my friend. Something tells me you`ll be back soon...

It`s been a bit lonely here without you. You should see Herla`s twins. Their growing up so fast!
I`ve been playing with the other fawns, and exploring for you. I want to surprise you when you get back.

I`ve found a really nice patch of sunlight between two trees by the oak. It`s a perfect spot for two deer to lie in.

Come back, soon please. I hope you`re okay out there, where ever you are...
It seems like everything`s changing. We`re all growing up... well, kind of. I don`t think I`ll ever grow up. I like being a fawn! Though it`s fun to grow up too.

I know you`re ok, I think....

Now I realize, you were different, my friend. I understand what it means now.

May the Twin Gods go with you. I`ll keep waiting. You have my word.

You`ll always be on my mind.

Do You See Me?: Yet Another Random Oneshot

Mama, I know....

I know I wasn`t like most of the other fawns.

I maybe, I thought maybe I wasn`t maybe as...

Pretty, as
Nice, as
Playful, or
Talented, as
Most fawns.

I wondered why you didn`t like me.

Then I found out why you didn`t love me anymore.

It was

because
of
the
limp.

I remember when you used to love me. When you used to call me brave and special.

But I felt like I didn`t deserve it. That I had to prove myself to you, and to the other fawns who said what I thought.

Though all it did was make you hate me.

I`m sorry. I should have never tried to climb to the oak.
Then maybe I wouldn`t have fallen.

And
maybe
You
would
still
love
Me.

I`m so sorry.

Maybe I shouldn`t have tried then all those times, to win you back. To make you love me.
But you seemed to like the others better than me. Your own son?

I couldn`t just take it! I loved you so I hated myself so that you could love me and that made me want to MAKE YOU LOVE ME, MAMA! Why wouldn`t you look at me, not once.

You loved me and then you loved me, as you saw me fall your sweet, kind love fell with me.

And this limp is the burden of the hatred I carry. Though hatred for what?

So then I promised, I swore to myself that I would prove my bravery. I would climb higher, and farther than any deer had ever gone before. I could would should win you back, Mama.

Because I felt like a corward, Mother.
If I were brave, I would have held on...

All those times I called, "Look, Mama, can you see me! Look at me! I`m your brave boy!"
You just pushed me away, said I shouldn`t try such things with that pitiful limp of mine.

But I wanted to be brave, Mama. I wanted to make you proud. I wanted to make you love me. Again.

So, I went and searched the forest... till I came to them. The white statue. You had never let me near them, saying that they didn`t think that a imperfect fawn was worthy to pray before them.

Brighter Than The Stars: Oneshot

My brother.
My sister.

We loved to sing. And we loved music.

From the moment we were born, we wanted to explore and play.
One day, we swore, that our small hooves would one day grow big and strong enough to walk the entire forest.

My brother. Bright as the light of the moon , with a black star on his forehead. Like a morning star.
My sister. Beautiful, black as night. As midnight.

Morning star. Midnight.

When we sang, did they hear us? The other fawns, the does, and the stags?
I think they did. But did we sing very well?

They seemed a bit scared of us.

They would always turn away, run away. Why did they look at us like that?
Mama, it`s making us sad. Though they`re only playing, right?
Daddy, why did you become so angry?

Why did you yell at the others? We didn`t understand. Not really.

So we kept singing.

Until the day the sun stopped moving in the sky.
Until the day they needed us again.

The past was the past, and it doesn`t matter to us. We are the midnight and the morning star, and we understood what that meant now. What we had to do.

We won`t forgot you, Mama, Daddy. We saw the tears in your eyes, and we`re sorry for that.
Thank you for trying to protect us. Thank you for loving us.

So we became the stars.

Do you see us sometimes? We like dancing through the stars.

Shush...

If you listen very closely, you might hear us singing.

"Mama, what are those, up there?"
"Those are stars, my sweets. They help the moon light up the night, so that the moon doesn`t feel so lonely."
"They`re so bright, Mama...."
The doe smiled.
"Perhaps, one day, you will shine brighter than the stars, my children."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So that`s it. Also, the last part with the dialouge takes place in the past.

Hope you like it, Orinoco! (I`m not sure if it`s my best. Lol)

Shattered Memories: A Gift For Orinoco

So, this is a little oneshot for my friend Orinoco. I hope you like it Smiling

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mother.

Today I saw two fawns playing by the pond. I was going to go over and play with them, but then their parents called them back. I smiled at them, playfully mauing a good-bye and prancing away.

Inside, though, my heart broke.

It does that a lot. Whenever I see familes. My heart breaks a little bit. Sometimes I can ignore it. I can stay in denial for a little bit.

Though it always catches up to me eventually.

Other times, it happens right away. I have to run, have to go somewhere that the other fawns dont`t go. So that they don`t see me.

But I try not to do this a lot. I know that you don`t want to see me cry.

I mean, you are watching me.
Right?

Mother... where have you gone? Why can`t I find you?

Why did you leave?

Did you mean to leave? Did you want me? Did you love me?

I know you did. I just know. So...

Those questions float around in my head all the time. It gets worse and worse, until... Until I just... break?

I`ve searched for you day after day after day, and nothing. Except that one time.

That time I scented you.

That scent. The sweet breeze of sunbathed lilacs and fresh linen. A ball of excitment began to grow in my stomach. I ran, faster then the wind, to find you. Then I stopped, looking around and mawing eagerly.

Sure, the sunlit patch I had arrived in was full of lilacs. Besides that, though? There was nothing. Not a single deer in sight.

And that was when I broke down for the first time. When I cried. I fell to the ground and cried.

Didn`t you hear me? Didn`t you see the look in my eyes, sweeping around the forest, begging you to come back? With every fiber of my being.

Dark of The Pond (re-post)

So I`m thinking of writing up a story for TEF. This is just a little oneshot a I thought up that would be based off the story.

Sunlight shone through the dense wooded trees, bathing the lush green forest in sunlight. The spots that the sunlight did not reach where spots of cool, misty shades. The fawn breathed in the air as it ran through a patch of shade, heading for its destination.

The fawn kept joyfully running until its little hooves suddenly stopped, digging into the soft soil. Before it lay a calm, unbroken, blue-green pond. The fawn bent down, lapping up the water. It tasted magical, the clear, clean liquid. So... magicial.

The fawn finished drinking and looked up. It blinked, flicking its ears in contentment.

That`s when the fawn saw it. A flash of something, out of the corner of its bright eyes.

It looked up. On a hill next to the pond stood a huge gray black stag. Its antlers were blood red, its eyes even more so. They glowed and flashed with pure malice.

The fawn froze, half out of shock and the other of denial. The forest was a safe, sweet place. The deers were all kind-hearted and fun. Surely its eyes must be playing tricks on it?!

Perhaps there was something wrong with the pond water.
No. There was never anything wrong with the pond water.

The deer loomed over the pond and the fawn, looking down on it in a way that would have unerved even the most mighty, steel-hearted deer. Yet the fawn still refused to believe that something would hurt it.

It was so sad. As a huger shadow rose up over the pond, and the fawn bellowed in fright as a plume of gray black ash rose up behind the shadowy stag, it still didn`t run.

Even as the stag began to run toward the pond, the little fawns feet were only begining to turn.

Tales of Time: Coming Shadows (re-post)

This is just a prolouge and a blurb I made up for a story I`m thinking of writing about TEF.

Here`s the prolouge:

"Who are you?"
"Ah, It`s you. A fawn looking for a story, perhaps? Well, you`d better run along now, because the story I have to tell is not one for youngsters."
"..."

"You`re still here. So you want to know this story? The one that got us where we are today? Well, I suppose a fawn like you should deserve to know. Even though we`d have been better off never knowing."

"None of us."

"Well, you`d better sit down. The tale I`m about to tell you is the tale of all tales. Or that`s what they all started calling it."

"By the way, don`t tell any off the other fawns. Why are you staring at me like that? It`s only for the best. Ignorance is a gift when it comes to this story."

"You see, they don`t want you to know. They don`t want you to know the past, or the past of the past. In fact, I should have sent you away a long time ago."

"Alas, you`re still here. Well, I suppose I`ll start now. Even though I shouldn`t."

"Though much as it will pain you, you still deserve to know. We all deserved to know."


Now, here`s the blurb:

They expected evil to come from outside...

In a far off, closed off realm, a huge herd of deers thrive in a forest of wonder. They are blissfully unaware of the past that brought them here, and have lived in peace. That time ends now.

....Not within.

Sorry if my writing style seems confusing, lol. I`ll probably never write this story anyway, but It`s fun to think about. I`ve already got some ideas.

EDIT: I changed the title of the blog. Lol .

RE EDIT: Decided to post the blog again cause I don`t think my computer was working when I first posted it.
