"Stories open up new paths, sometimes send us back to old ones, and close off still others. Telling and listening to stories we too imaginatively walk down those paths – paths of longing, paths of hope, paths of desperation."
---Arthur Kleinman

About LORBEERPRINZ

first of all: don’t worry, you’re still on the right blog! I just moved this to my writing blog for legibility’s sake :3

  • About LORBEERPRINZ:

- the individual behind this blog likes to be called Komi by people on the internet, real name is not mandatory (but might be revealed to people that get to know me better). I am making a point of not telling too many things about myself online, and never go by my full name and data anywhere. Asking about personal data such as age, hometown, job, etc. might result in silence. I sometimes choose to reveal a bit, though, when I need to make a point or talk about my feelings. I only show my face on this blog when I’m geared with a cosplay, or at least a wig and fashion outfit. I don’t do selfies and such stuff.
- the owner is interested in multiple disciplines of creative work and will post them from time to time.
- Komi likes to communicate. I also listen to your problems if you ever have any, so feel free to message me at any time. Just be aware that there might be time difference issues that can hinder me from answering immediately (I actually sleep at night…). In general, you can come to me with any kind of problems, or if you just want to fangirl/-boy about something
- I don’t automatically follow back everyone who follows me. If you only come in hope to gain a new follower, you’ve got the wrong address.
- there are also some sub-blogs, which can be found in the sidebar.

  • About the blog:

- this blog is a multi-interest blog. You might find posts from different anime/manga, games, TV series, books, movies etc. I also post photography from time to time.
- on a general note, this is my personal blog, so I can post whatever I want. If you don’t like the stuff I post, ignore it and concentrate on the things you like to see, or don’t follow. Just don’t complain about the things I post/reblog. It’s my choice, after all, not yours.
- I try to not flood people’s dashboards, so I only post a few times per day and don’t make a queue
- sometimes, there will be personal posts, either thoughtful or sad, or random, or anything in between. About 90% of these will be behind a Read More, so you can ignore them if you choose. Due to the nature of my personality, many of these will consist of me ranting about something that has to do with my personal life, sometimes repeatedly. If you don’t like this, ignore such posts. Just don’t come and complain.
- art, photography etc. will only be posted if it’s sourced properly. SOURCING IS IMPORTANT. Don’t be an ass, source the art you find and respect an artist’s wish by taking your stuff down / not post it when they don’t want to have it spread around the internet
- I don’t post social justice stuff. None. I don’t care about posts calling me heartless or uninterested in people’s rights. I am just generally annoyed that the tumblr community started to yell at every little thing derogatively that goes wrong in their eyes, without considering multiple sides of the same coin. I am very annoyed at this behaviour and will NOT condone in something like that. I don’t hate the tumblr community, but I hate how it handles actually important topics.

  • Stuff on the blog:

That’s a list of the things you’ll see more or less frequently on this blog, with variying degrees of amounts
- Are you Alice? and other series by Ninomiya Ai / IMlabel
- Pokémon (especially N)
- Digimon
- Loveless
- L’Arc~en~Ciel, VAMPS and Hyde
- Vampire Chronicles
- Fire Emblem: Awakening
- Marginal Prince
- Code Geass
- Star Driver
- fashion, mostly J-Fashion (Lolita, Kodona/Ouji, Visual Kei, street fashion), Gothic and Punk
- other photography and art with roses, birdcages, pocket watches, crowns and similar themes
- reviews / thoughts of stuff I watched/read/played (although this has become somewhat rare as of late…)
- and more…
In general, this blog is about forms of aesthetism. I won’t post anything that doesn’t evoke ecertain feelings in me, may it be a smile, laughter, making me thoughtful or sad. And I hope to get the same feelings from my followers when I post things directly (instead of just reblogging them) or create stuff.

I repeat: IF YOU DON’T LIKE ANY OF THE THINGS I POST DON’T FOLLOW THIS BLOG. Or at least don’t be a douche and complain. You’re obliged to leave at any time you want.

Original 「Morning Race」

Title: Morning Race
Type: oiginal fiction -> general
Year: 2012
Pairing: none
Author’s note: Once again, a piece I wrote for my Creative Writing class (I didn’t write anything besides stuff for Uni in the past months orz). I submitted a shorter version as a homework and as I ended up liking this one better than the one I had actually written for the final assignment, I revised it, made it somewhat longer and handed it in again. So yeah. The characters and conflicts are all from the novel I haven’t worked on for almost 1 1/2 years, which kind of makes me sad, but I guess I have to resolve some issues first before I am able to continue working on that story. Might use this little piece in the context of the novel or not, who knows.

Poetry ; The Smoker

Author’s Note: Another piece I wrote for my Creative Writing class Final Assignment in poetry. Personally, I like the other one better, but as it turns out, my teacher took this one to another teacher of this course so it might be printed in a collection of works that originated from this course. I don’t yet know if it will be elected for printing or not, but I really hope so :D
And of course tumblr destroyed the original formatting, thank you very much

★★★

The smoker

The Earth is silent. It mourns

For the ones we’ve lost on the way to

Ultimate happiness.

I stand upon the mother of all -

Warm soil between my toes which

Dries up and sticks to me like

A second skin.

It is rough and hard, and when I walk

It hurts.

I look around and see that the Earth

Has no tears left.

Instead it breathes pale grey clouds,

A lifeless chain smoker before me.

There used to be everything

Here, not too long ago,

But now, no matter where

I go there is just

Emptiness.

Poetry ; Wanderweg

Author’s Note: One of the pieces I wrote as the final assignment of my Creative Writing Class’s poetry section. The form of this is a Pantoum; it takes a while to write, but in the end it was surprisingly much fun.

★★★

Wanderweg

Sometimes we stop on our track

 Because there is no way to go on.

 And then we stand around in nothingness

 Wasting precious time.

 Because there is no way to go on

 We become uncertain.

 Wasting precious time

 While thinking helpless thoughts.

 We become uncertain

 When things go slightly wrong.

 While thinking helpless thoughts            

 Some of us start to cry

 When things go slightly wrong.

 In a faked Wonderland

 Some of us start to cry.

 We aimlessly wander around

 In a faked Wonderland

 While searching for something to make us happy.

 We aimlessly wander around

 Feet tired from walking.

 While searching for something to make us happy

 No one can predict the outcome.

 Feet tired from walking

 Throat dry from all the crying

 No one can predict the outcome.

 Eventually we collapse on the road

 Throat dry from all the crying

 Because frustration won over sense.

 Eventually we collapse on the road

 And let the world fly past us.

 Because frustration won over sense

 We are still human in the end.

Poetry ; Dodo

Author’s note: This is a poem I wrote as a homework exercise for the Creative Writing university class I am currently taking. As always in life, the teacher had lots to criticise, but personally I like it non the less. I would have the possibility to submit it again for the final poetry assignment, but only visibly revised, which I won’t do because I like it the way it is. Which may have to do with the fact that it’s very personal.

Dodo

Let me tell you about my big love
After a bath he smelled horrible, something unknown to the world
This would crawl through the house, a predator hunting for noses to bother
But once he was dry, he was perfect and warm.

Let me tell you about my big love
His long hair shone in multiple colors, later more grey
It was like silk on the top of his head, the most popular place to pet him
And then ruffle this soft spot behind his ears.

Let me tell you about my big love
How he lay under the table, on top of someone’s feet
His heart making itself known through his chest, rhythmic dancer of the body
The weight of his presence was wonderfully heavy.

Let me tell you about my big love
The way he shouted at others, strong and determined
A firm voice like a steady pulse, never altering or failing to call
He tried his best to protect everybody.

Let me tell you about my big love
And the way he ate, eyes glittering with every piece he was offered
Not caring for table manners, he just smacked and smacked and smacked
But he was grateful for every crumble.

Let me tell you about my big love
I have to regret to inform you that this love is gone forever.

Poetry; Excitement

Excitement is when
You buy a new book
And you can’t wait to get back home
To read it all in one night.

Excitement is when
You dress up for a date
And meet them for the very first time
With flowers and a kiss.

Excitement is when
You start a long journey
And run straight into the unknown
Not caring what might lure in the shadows.

Disappointment is when
You wake up in the morning
And find yourself in a familiar bed
Realizing it was all just a dream.

Fandom: Marginal Prince ~Gekkeijyu no Oujitachi~
Year: 2010 (I think)
Characters: Joshua Grant, Henri-Hugues de Saint Germain

Author’s note: I’m almost disappointed that nobody ever commented on the fact that Henri almost looks like the living image of his deceased mother. It’s almost scary how much he looks like her xD

Pokémon 「Sunset」

Title: Sunset
Type: fanfiction -> drama
Fandom: Pokémon Black (2) & White (2)

Pairing: none
Author’s note: My very first Pokémon-ff in over ten years xD I finally wrote this to do something with all the feeling I have ever since I finished the Japanese White 2 game I played. Since some questions are still left open and I’m not sure what to think of certain elements revealed, I included some headcanons (mainly about N) into this. I use the Japanese names for places and characters because I can never remember the English ones (with exception of Ghetsis instead of G-Cis, though)^^’ The quotes that belong to the first BW come from the official English translation, the lines from B2W2 were translated by me. As this is a story set after the events of B2W2, SPOILERS MAY OCCUR.


Summary: One winter evening, N decides to visit his father.
