(I fixed up the lines a bit... I thought the blurry would look better but had second thoughts.)

EDIT
The original journal of Nez's has some serious miss-communications. She's edited it.
We spoke and are going to try and fix things. But this doesn't change the feeling or imagery in the picture, as Quetzal hasn't even seen Yasa in long over a year now (closer to a year and a half I believe). She's has become distant to all who knew her, and tends to mope about in sadness. (Easily noted by her absence from all DC rps as of late. I've described her a few times off on her own, moping.)
I've frequently pictured her sobbing to herself in the darkness over her missing husband. This picture was actually that mental imagery brought to life by recent journals.
But Nez and I will have to figure out something.. for these two can't go on like this.

I know, it's a sad picture, but I feel very sad. I've kind of seen this coming for awhile. It's been ages now (at least over a year... much longer I believe) since my dear friend left the Draik Clan, and then neopets. We tried to keep rping when we could, but not being on the same sites made it difficult.
Each attempted rp fizzled and was lost.. and for the last while, although we're still friends.. I love Nez to pieces, we have drifted apart a bit.

But this also sort of messed up our rps. So she (rightfully) decided that it's time re-vamp her characters. But she's going to 'reboot' them and start over. Sort of erasing everything that happened and starting with a blank slate.

Sadly I can't take part in it, as I can't just erase years of rps from my characters. So even though it's chokingly hard but instead I'll have to put an end to the relationship that Quetzal and Yasa had.( And I've been depressed as hell over it. It's pathetic that I've wound up sheding tears over my rpg characters.)

So my Quetzal, who is both a DC and neopets based character (more DC then neo.. she doesn't even look like a neopet), will be going through a hard time.. as her Yasa is definately gone. The choice to re-start was the confirmation that thier story is over.

I wish you the best Nez! (and don't for a second think that I'm angry.. just heart-broken over what was lost.. but ready to rp it and welcome the emotional opportunity and change for my character.) And I so hope that Yasa's re-boot works out perfectly for you. Just know that Quetzal will be heart broken, and will mourn him for all of her long years... as well as the two hatchlings that I own will weep for the loss of thier Otto-san.


For those not in the know, that is thier wedding picture that Quetzal is clutching.

And just to add in, this is where the title of the image comes from. I kept listening to this song as I drew the picture. I don't know if it's easy to find. The singer is a Canadian artist from the east coast (and I adore her music). But I typed out the lyrics.


You & Me
(Kim Stockwood)


Three am,
I'm wide awake again.
'Cause you're everywhere,
And I'm like your prisoner.
Don't you care?
Baby don't you care?

That every face that I see,
Every cup of coffee,
Every song just reminds me of you and me.
Every naked body,
In every late night movie,
Everything just reminds me of you and me.
You and Me.

Souvenirs,
Is all that you've left here.
Just your winter coat,
And that sweet poem that you wrote,
And the heart that you broke.

Cause every face that I see,
Every cup of coffee,
Every song just reminds me of you and me.
Every naked body,
In every late night movie,
Everything just reminds me of you and me.
You and Me.

'Cause every dream that I dream,
Every breath that I breathe,
Every time I smile I think of you and me.
Every word that I speak,
Every thought that I think,
Everything just reminds me of you and me.

Every face that I see,
Every cup of coffee,
Every song just reminds me of you and me.
Every naked body,
In every late night movie,
Everything just reminds me of you and me.
You and Me.
