Description This is for the contest in The topic is angst. Beware of cliche, sappiness and cheesiness~~~


Xia34B is an artificial human created in a lab with chemistry, mechinary, and mixes of genes. He was created by a lonely scientist who lived in his own mansion, all alone. Xia was able to speak, understand, and process information with his artificial intelligence. Indeed, Xia was the Scientist's master piece. (i'm going to address him as "scientist" from now on, ok?)

Xia needed 666 days in the test tube in order for him to be complete. Everyday, Scientist would go and tell him about the outside world and they would chat.

"Love is a wonderful thing" He told Xia. Xia did not understand, "If it's wonderful, then why didn't you program it in me?"

"Because love ...is something that you have to experience. It's not a type of knowledge, it's bond that binds two together." The lonely scientist fell in love with his own creation. He was in a mansion out of no where alone, all he had was Xia. He had moved here because his entire family was killed by bandits, in one night. After that incident, he became anti-social. He was afraid of other humans.

On the 665th night, a few lost bandits came to the mansion. They mercilessly killed Scientist and left with valuables. Using his last strength, Scientist crawled to the test tube. His hand stroked the glass and slid down, leaving a trail of blood on the glass. He was dead. Xia reached out his hand, placed it right in front of Scientist's hand, with only thin glass between them.

"I don't understand." The Scientist's feelings were never returned. Xia couldn't feel. The both of them were left to rot, together.

....Weird story. >_< Lolz, I hope it looks okay, though!!!

Ahahaha....the scientist, lolz, I'll sketch him for you! He's cute. XD (a bit like hakkai/tenpou from Saiyuki....if you know the anime, lolz)

When I have nothing to do, I usually look around to look at drawings and try to learn something from them. I get my ideas of what to draw from my daydreams. Yea...daydreaming is very childish....but it's fun! (?)

The drawing looks so meaningful! Very pretty! And the story reminds me of a very romantic/dramatic fairy tale. v_v Knew the scientist probably wouldn't survive on the 666 day when Xia'd be completed, how depressing! ;w;

grayishfeather In reply to TiyaChang [2006-06-18 14:48:09 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! Lolz, yes, it's just like a romantic/dramatic fairy tale! Coz the contest's topic was angst. XD
It's sad, it was the 665th night...a few more hours and Xia would be complete. *sigh* It happens to me sometimes too, something happens when I'm so close to finishing something. Like the time when I was doing a test...1 more question..but time was up!!!

TiyaChang In reply to grayishfeather [2006-06-18 14:52:44 +0000 UTC]

I had a few more questions for the vocab test I had in science class, but guess what? My teacher HAD to distract us with stuff and thus, TIME'S UP! I literally went "*snaps fingers* Damn..." XD

Amazing piece. The hands and eyes are gorgeous, and the proportions are pro. <3
The story behind it is very interesting. I actually liked it, despite some repetitions. :3 It's a sad tale with a nice twist to it. Shame it isn't longer :c
Love it all none the less! Good luck in the contest :3

grayishfeather In reply to Voxive [2006-06-18 14:52:41 +0000 UTC]

Thank you. I'm glad that the proportion came out right! (i practiced a lot on that)

Lolz, there are repititions in the story. I'll practice, one day I'll be a writer!!!! (yea right, i doubt it, lolz) but I guess it fits the topic of the contest, a little. XD

Thanks! i hope i win~~~
