So the crazy flame-wielding, knife-throwing, epically awesome but kinda conflicted child known up to this point only as "TehDemonSpawn" or similar things finally has a name, thanks to some research that could very possibly be deemed as creepy (i.e. looking back at really old posts on a friend's online journal). I believe her name shall be Riley, although it could be Jamie, but of course if I hear other suggestions from legitimate sources that may very well change.
The twin girls who might not actually be twins also may have names although I'm really not sure why. I'd really prefer the twin boys to have names, since then most of the important characters save the adults would have names and I could actually start writing, perhaps. But no, these minor characters (minor now, at least - though I'd like to keep them minor to avoid the clashing of reality that will happen sooner for them than for all the rest of the kids) got names first. Abigail and Sophie, or Suzie, perhaps, were the names that just popped into my head for them recently.
I feel like I'm going to have to actually do research about the boys' names. I mean, if I don't get any suggestions. *hint hint to my one and only listed follower* Research behind names, and the meanings behind them, and whatnot. I suppose I should do that anyway for the adults and some of the other kids I don't have names for yet. I just don't know how the hell I'm going to do that with all this stuff that's going on - job stuff and school stuff and personal stuff and...jeez, there's just never enough time. Probably cuz I waste it all. *sigh*
About Me
- Diana
- I'm currently a first-year graduate student at UMass Amherst in Polymer Science and Engineering (PSE). I graduated from the University of Michigan in 2011 with a B.S.E. in Materials Science and Engineering. ("cum laude" which means "You did better than we expected you to, but not as well as all your classmates you studied with that are going on to bigger and better things. You know, the ones that helped you along.") My main interests lie in a strange grey area between materials, chemistry, and biology. Optimally I'd like to wind up in a lab researching biodegradable polymers so there's not as much trash piling up everywhere. In the summer of 2010, I was in Carlsbad, NM for an internship with Sandia National Laboratories, and enjoyed taking hundreds of pictures of my adventures.
