Seeking help. Am I just one giant walking cliché?
Anduriel:
Ah awesome, I shall look the book up. And nah, never watched much. I did see part of an episode where some dude was in a goldy brown space-suit type thing, then it opened up and a glowing thing with wings came out of it. One of those unique angels you were talking about?
hamiltond:
Without totally geeking all over the place I'll attempt to explain. The "Vorlon" were an ancient race that had been watching out for (read; interfering with) nearly every other race in the galaxy. When one of the was forced to take of his "enviromental suit" he appeared to nearly every race to be THEIR version of a "Messanger from God" except for this one race (not Humans) who couldn't physically see them at all.
I'm not suggesting your character be and alien. I'm saying that different religons have different "Messanger" A Hindu might see a scared cow, A Hebrew might see a burning bush, and a Christian or Muslim might see an angel. But that will depend on who's looking. In reality it's your main character standing there pissed of because someone hindu guy called him "O scared Cow" and tried to drink from his "Holy Udders". ;) See what I mean.
Anduriel:
LMFAO! Totally hilarious! Something like this huh?
'And so I appeared unto him, to deliver my oh so holy message. And I’ll tell you this; I could oh so not be bothered. But I had a job to do, and… I did.
“Ahem… I… I come baring news for you worthy mor¬”
“Oh Holy sacred Cow! You have come to absolve me of all the great baddnesses of my life and bring us many pleasures into our village.”
“Mortal¬ I…what?”
Did he just call me a cow?!
“Oh sacred Cow, let me here drink the holy milk from your sacred udders.”
“W-what? Get off of¬”
It was whilst I was trying to remove the crazy man from my udders, that I noticed I actually had udders. I went to find the nearest mirror… or reflective surface, and there I was in all my glory.
A freaking cow!
I hate my job.'
Lol aw you made me giggle with that idea. You got some cool ideas, I think maybe you'd be better off writing it ;D (Hopefully that sound like the compliment I intended)
hamiltond:
Nah, I suck. I'm good to bounce stuff off of and I'm ok for catching little details. I'm even good for helping out with the big pic. But my mind wanders too much and I've got no stamina for the whole writing thing, I've got respect for people like yourself who do though. So run with it. :D
Anduriel:
Aw man, I'm sure you don't suck. And thanks :-) I shall see where this road takes me.
I'm not so great myself though, I have faults. Like my constant search for validation! lol. I mean what did you think of my lil reinactment (I know there wasn't much to go with)... if you don't mind me asking. I'm just intrigued.
