tragic destiny
I couldnīt say it better:
wow: A protector who still needs to be protected.
The transformation of his into a assassin and the mutilation done to his body (and I still believe that there is at least a tiny part of his soul left) and soul is concerning me at the moment too.
As some of you know Iīm still writing my fanfiction and this aspect of his personality I have to work out....and I tell ya, if youīre writing about a man, put into a state of death, but not complete death, into a chemical machine, you get your thoughts and believe it or not, when I saw K-town after some of those writings and thoughts, I have to cry....
I think Kai ist the most tragic person ever invented in SciFi...(and the best looking one, ahem undead character...)
Re: tragic destiny
I know, I know! I've been WAITING and WAITING for you to finish Life and Death at lexfans.com. I can't tell you how much I have enjoyed reading your story You do such a great job of capturing Kai's dilemma. Your exploration of how fate *may* be playing with him is really cool.
I really agree with you about him being the most tragic of characters. Really, he (like Stan and Xev) is just doing the best he can do with what he has. I love the way you imagined that Kai alive would be as limited as Kai dead; he only trades one imperfect situation (death) for another one (life). You are quite a good writer!
Thank you for your kind review, Iīm really really happy you enjoy my little story.
Itīs not always easy to slip into oneīs skin...especially if it is Kai, to try to explain what he might feel...but I always have had some weakness for those tragic characters...and there are some days where I just sat down, close my eyes and let all those scenes I want to write coming into my mind, like a movie...and itīs much more easy to write them down then. (Believe me, sometimes I really donīt want to "wake up" again, ahem, those special scenes... ). I always try to see the view of each person I write about (yes, Iīm kind of shizophrenic now....).
I often try to explain myself how these really good writers (Dan Simmons, Stephen King) write their stories without getting caught inside their stories for the rest of their life.....(Well, Lexx is another sort of drug I suppose).
Anyone want a Kai-fix????
Okay, Iīll soon continue the translation of my story, but I feel an urge (oooppps) to finish the story first. Iīm somewhere in the last quarter of it.Things are developing very fast now and I sometimes canīt write so fast the ideas came....and you have to be careful not to end up writing some nonsense...I tend to that. So maybe some chapters are a bit long, but I sometimes think I have to explain some things....before someones thinks, hey, is this girl crazy, what sheīd want to tell us???
Okay, Iīm very happy that there were some people outside who canīt wait for the next chapter...., huh, hopefully no one will curse me for whatīll come next
So, before I start to tell you what comes next, I stop here (Iīm unfortunately not a person who can keep such things back for a long time....ahem, maybe I should think of it like a secret, and put it in my safe....my sister-in-law is asking me all the time for the next part...sheīs the only one who knows most of the story in advance...)
Re: tragic destiny
Don't worry, I can wait. I'm the type of person who would NEVER peek at a Christmas present; anticipation is half of the fun. I'd rather have you take your time and write something as great as the first part.

Re: tragic destiny
It is a very good story, Aenea. I like how you delve into their psyches about what they are thinking.
Re: tragic destiny
After reading the marvelous reviews of Aenea's story I wandered over and read it...WOW. I had to stop, because it was so good, I wanted to look forward to reading more.
Thank you so much for sharing your writing with us. You have obviously thought long and hard (ahem) about your topic. I'm heading over shortly to read more.
Iīm so happy you all like my tiny little story (in the beginning I thought it only would be a small one- - but now it had grown into a looong laaarge biiiig one).
I always thought writing romatical scenes, involving sex is difficult to do, but I was wrong. It was more easy for me than to write action. (I have to be a bitch....)
At the moment Iīm writing one of the last chapters, and of course, it includes a lot of action and fight, and I never thought it was that difficult to write. If you see a movie and those action scenes (I really love Matrix, and the way they fight) and you want to write something like that you never find the right words to describe it. (or maybe Iīm just a bad writer...). Well, letīs see what happened. Iīve done the first rough writing and I know that this wonīt be the final version, like every chapter Iīve written so far. Thereīs the German original (sometimes written, re-written and re-re-written) and the final English version. Itīs not only the translation, it is another correction (cause in English some things really sound different and sometimes better).
I think Iīll put up the next chapter this weekend, itīs about time...
Thanx again for all your kind support!
Aenea

re: Story
Yay! I really have enjoyed it. I'm wondering what will happen to Kai in the end!
What about getting Kai into emotional therapy? I'm sure he has something an intensively staring shrink can coax outta him.
On second thought, he might kill the shrink before anything comes out.
Kai:I wish you not to stare at me.
Shrink:You have to talk soon enough.
Kai:Yo-ay-o *pokes out shrinks eyes and walks away, figuring he has done what the shrink has said and that the therapy is over*
Re: Romantic hero or tragic lover?
I think Kai is pretty hot and tempting. I'm a stranger to this board. Check out my Kai archeive at my new website. [link=http://mylexxpics.funtigo.com newwindow]mylexxpics.funtigo.com[/link]
Re: KAI - Romantic Lover or Tragic Hero
well...about stories
You wonīt believe it....I am at the very end of the rough script now, just have to write the usual blabla at the end (called the epilogue...or was it the prologue....damn),
and what happened it the bathtub last week....
Yes, the next story shot through my mind and I nearly couldnīt write so fast to make a reminder of this idea. Oh man, the idea alone was about two pages long.....
Think there will never be an end of ideas for stories (especially not in my crazy mind), well, if theyīre good, thatīs another question letīs see, thatīs upon you to decide.
For now....itīs a story which takes place after 4.24...Yo way yo....
more to come if I ever got this rough script down onto my puter, grrrrrrrrrrrrr, I need a secretary......

Re: KAI - Romantic Lover or Tragic Hero
Don't you just hate it Aenea when an idea or story is racing through your mind and you just don't have the time to do it?
Re: KAI - Romantic Lover or Tragic Hero
OH YES MMLOVER!
Especially if Iīm not done with the first one....grrrrr....
You get ideas in the middle of the day...and no way to write them down cause you have to put your mind on other things.....itīs really sad....well, letīs see...

Re: KAI - Romantic Lover or Tragic Hero
Oh I know! Alot of my ideas come to me in the shower or just as I'm laying in bed trying to sleep and I never write them down. I've had some doozy's in the shower, and when I've tried to remember it later, I can't.
Re: KAI - Romantic Lover or Tragic Hero
In the SHOWER?
Come on gal....I can imagine what wonderful ideas in these hot...steamy...shower come to you...hehehehe....
To be serious....if you close your eyes under the warm stream of water, the drops tickling your skin....can you feel it too....this wonderful dream that someone is close to you...doesnīt Kai almost came real?
Oh yes, you can doze off in a shower...and those WONDERFUL thoughts and stories that came in oneīs mind there....
*sigh*
As I am married now...I have the best ideas in a bathtub....caus thatīs when I can be alone for a while (well, there isnīt enough space that hubby can disturb my dreams with ahem, attacks.... ahem).

Re: KAI - Romantic Lover or Tragic Hero
I wish I had a long time to spend in the shower with the warm water cascading down my body, but unfortunately after 10 minutes or so, the shock of cold water hits.... I must admit, I do get some really good ideas in the shower, that I promptly forget, because I'm usually in a rush to get to work. *sigh*
Kai's been pestering me in my brain to write something, what exactly, I don't know...... I just wish work wouldn't drain my brain so much.
Re: KAI - Romantic Lover or Tragic Hero
I say yea to more Aenea and mmlover fics! Bring 'em on ladies! Do I need to send both of you shower gel to *ahem* lubricate the creative process?
You do such a great job of capturing Kai's dilemma. Your exploration of how fate *may* be playing with him is really cool.

How to get Kai to get the emotions out
