Dianna's Room

First mention goes here to all the members of "the group". Though things are strained, and my ties have most likely gone by the wayside, I still think about you all and am thankful I got to know you. I'm sorry if I've walked down a different path for these last few months, but I had my own problems with how things were going. yes, perhaps I should've stayed and talked it out, but it's too late now. So here's to you all: Usa, Rena, Haru, Manda, Zan... I still think fondly of you all and I wish I had done things in a better manner. Good luck, Godspeed and I'll see those of you that visit Rhydin along with those that'll talk to me when I'm on Obsidian44 working on my site.

::Giggles softly:: It's been nearly a year since this happened in a RP scenario, but I still have the pic! And I think Usa and Rena still have the chopped hair as trophies.

Thanks whole bunches, Callie, for your friendship and your role in my OL history. You were the one that got me interested in learning HTML and setting up a site, and it was your site that lead to Corvus and I meeting. You will always be special to me for being the first OL friend I ever had. Keep up the good work on your site; it's changed so much over time, for the better in my opinion.

Heh, I still gotta show off the birthday card Callie made me. It's still kawaii, even six months later.

Corvus, thanks for always being there, though you and I have hit the point where sometimes it's hard to think of something to say. You're great moral support, and I respect your opinions a lot. Here's to what the future may bring; may it always be good to us both, my friend. And, of course, I have to thank you for all the wonderful contributions you've made over this time: the suggestions for the Elemental Guards' uniforms, the many buttons that are used as links for the Tower, you adopting Kyanite, Charoite, Iolite and Spessartine, along with the conception and adoption of Labradorite and the Dream Warriors, the many RPs that we've done to help flesh out the world of the Gemlords. Honestly, you've been the one person I could count on all this time and you've been a great friend. I couldn't've made it quite as well without you there.

Kris, I need to thank you for your adopting a number of Gemlords, coming up with really good concepts for their characterizations an overall being a spectacularly creative person. I wish I could think up RP scenarios as easily as you seem to. However, I'm having lots of fun playing along. Thanks a million for all the fun, and I'll catch you OL.

Arcades, I'm mentioning you here as well, cause I need to thank you for all of your intelligent conversation and your willingness to be a friend. Yes, you may not be "normal", but you're still a great friend. Just don't let most everything annoy you to death. ::Giggles:: I'll see you around, I'm sure.

Thanks a whole lot to the entire Imperial Negaverse crew... Azurite, the mysterious and eccentric King who claimed the throne from a defeated Beryl... Kunzite, the First General that went off to better himself and left Tanzanite in charge... Jadeite, the one General of the "old-timers" that actually had a bit of a heart... Zoisite, the female General that seemed so tough yet was really a very loving soul... Quartzite, suicidal General that ended up getting what he wanted, then returning from the dead... Ryoko, the rather zany secretary of the INV... Lazurite, once executed for insubordination, now resurrected to a high position within the Empire... Nephrite, steadfast and loyal, gone because the new powers didn't appreciate his talents, and a good friend to Tanzie while he was there... Selenite, the newly-discovered Gemlord and assassin of the Empire... Dark Prince Endymion, whose entire career revolved around Tanzanite and is still missed by myself... Xenotime, Endymion's wife and founder of the new Imperial Academy... Geminite, the reliable and charming reincarnation of Lazurite... Thulite, the enemy who was talked into joining the Empire by Tanzie's kind words... Peridot, Thulite's adopted son, who came to Tanzie to be trained... Dark Mage, who couldn't handle the pressures of life, though many people tried to help him... Fire Mage, who, in Tanzie's opinion, as shown himself to be the epitome of what the Mage Class ought to be... Light Mage, brother of Siderite, who was supportive but now may have his future up in the air... Siderite, once loyal and trustworthy, with a merry heart, and who did his best to keep things going... Topaz, the kawaii one, who always charmed Tanzie and myself with his wonderful personality... Anubis, the best bodyguard and good friend Tanzie could ever want... Magicite, the shadowy guardian that continues to keep an eye on his adopted charge... INV Unit 1, whose tragic story lead to the birth of a new Imperial member... INV Units 3,4,7,8 all lost or left through various causes, failures of the experimental program... Diamond/Unit 10, whose entire life save the present was an ongoing role of Imperial history... Thorite, the first INV Unit to pass the scrutiny and still the best bard of the Empire... Mithril/Unit 12, who began as someone in need that Tanzie helped and is now one who might help Amber overcome her anger... Dynamite/Mewtwo/Washuu, the one Imperial who truly understands technology and would like to see the realms all updated in a very desperate way... Morganite, one of Tanzie's first friends and who turned out to be a bitter enemy in the end... Sulfite, Morganite's friend and a long-term pest... Garnet, who seemed so nice at first, but fell steadily into madness as time went on and died a hero... Kalcite, the troublemaker of the Empire, who died at Tanzie's hands confessing that he loved her... Vegeta, the hotheaded warrior that stepped into Jadeite's place, then dealt with keeping the Empire together after Tanzie fell... INV Unit 11, who had Tanzie known your other identity, would never have gotten in... The other Selenite, who was a quiet presence within the Empire, but had a common sense many of the Imperials didn't possess... And any of the other past and present Imperials that have escaped my memory... You all have made Tanzanite's Negaverse career an interesting and nearly addictive one, and hopefully you will continue to do the same for Amber now that Tanzie's gone on to being the Gemlord she truly is. I've had a blast RPing all sorts of things with you all, and I look forward to doing so in the future as the history of the Empire continues to take shape.

Oh, I almost forgot! Thanks everyone who's come to the Tower and taken a look around. Granted, I'm doing my writing and drawings just for fun, but it is nice to show them off. I'm glad you took the time to stop by and see (maybe even read!) what's here. If you're so inclined, please drop me a line and let me know what you thought. I do like to hear about how good or bad my writing is.

NEPHRITE'S POEM-- by LuvlyUsagi/RhiannonSu
I awoke inside a nothingness,
The spirit came so near;
She whispered of a second chance,
A final wish to grant.
She told of love to save my soul,
The kind true lovers share;
My goal would be to find the one
Who's sacrifice it all.
The memories came rushing back,
My final days of doom;
The red-haired girl reached out to me,
To heal my bleeding wounds.
The wounds she healed weren't bodily,
But of my seething heart;
A heart long since turned to stone,
Yet healed by her that day.
I wonder if she's the one,
The one to love me true;
Her laugh, her smile, her tears, her joy,
All brought a warmness here.
I return to Earth a human fool,
Not certain what to do;
The task is set, the trip begun,
To find the one I love.
