A Step of Faith: Becoming a Gentleman

Well, it's past time for me to do another one of these.

My next idea (type, thing) is: Becoming a Gentleman 



I started this one when I first started to play around with the Steam Punk genre.
I personally don't see much in it yet, but I still love the title and the feel of it.
Oh yes, I don't think of these ideas/stories as one dimensional thought, but with all my senses.
This one in particular feels like old supple leather and smells of black tea that was steeped too long.
I never really sat down and wrote down any of my thoughts on this, but I'll try to remember all that I can.
(Self, please don't forget to do that again. . .)

Steampunk

(MC) was some kind of street kid, who was snagged off the street by someone (or maybe an organization???).
He decides to go into the police force, especially as he sees himself as a fairer officer towards his fellows.
When he finally gets his badge, he is immediately moved to a finer district and put on a watch for a grand mansion.
There was something about assassins as well, and someone with spy information that needed to be kept guarded.
And for some reason, there was nobility and upper class stuff that he had to learn.

Really self, why didn't you write this one down?
Oh well.
There it is.
All that I can remember about it.

(Oh, all of my picture story ideas are kept on my computer, and automatically alphabetized, so. . . expect all future story ideas from A-Z :D )

Questions? Advice? Ideas? Anything is welcome! :)

Keep on Writing!

God Bless,

Character Mondays: Mystery Character is back!

Me: Okay Mystery Character.

Mystery Character: I told you to call my Mysty.

Me: Fine. Mysty. What's your favorite animal?

Mysty: Really? Fine. A crocodile.

Me: Why?

Mysty: Because I decided it to be.

Me: You are very obstinate.

Mysty: Thanks Ms. Obvious.

Me: What do you want to accomplish in time?

Mysty: I want to see a forest that never ends. I want to swim in the middle of the ocean. I want to-

Me: No, not do, accomplish.

Mysty: There's a difference?

Me: Yeah.

Mystsy: *sigh* I'm not sure.

Me: Really? That's a big problem.

Mysty: Why?

Me: Because if you don't have one, then you'll be a shallow character. I can't have that.

Mysty: Um, okay. . .

Me: I'll have to ponder this more later. I have to get back to work.

Mysty: Yay! No more confusing questions and statements!

Me: Only until next time. Mwah ha ha!

Mysty: . . . Kallie was right. You are weird.

Character Monday: Kallie and Mystery Character

(Sorry I haven't done these in a while. . .)

Me: Hello Kallie. Who's that with you today?

Kallie: I don't know her name. . .

Mystery character: You can call me Mysty.

Me: Okay Mysty. . . How did you and Kallie meet?

Mysty: Well, we were at-

Kallie: We can't say. You should know better than that, if we told you we'd be giving away a bit of the story! Where's the fun in that?

Mysty: That would be kind of fun though. . .

Kallie: Would not.

Mysty: People would be mad and upset at us. They might even throw rotten vegetation at us!

Kallie: I knew you where weird.

Me: *chokes* So, um, how old are you Mysty?

Mysty: I'm 22 years old and proud of it.

Me: Why are you proud of being 22?

Mysty: Because I am. Is there a problem with being proud of how old you are?

Me: . . .

Mysty: I didn't think so.

Me: . . . I'm not sure if I've asked Kallie how old she is. . . just for the record, how old are you Kallie?

Kallie: I'm 17, almost 18. Can we be done now?

Me: Okay okay. Fine. But I have tons more to ask you and at least one other person who isn't a mystery character. Good night. :)
