The Clockworks

Hrrr! 'Tis finally weekends!

I can't believe I missed the morning Saturday church today. I overslept! Perhaps 'tis just because this week is so busy and consumes all my energy. I have felt tired since yesterday, indeed, but I ignored it because I have a rare feeling that I know what to do with Cobweb. So, in conclusion, I just wasted my time reworking the story, even though I should have slept to go to the church. Now that I thought about it, it sounds like my own mistake, doesn't it?

Now, now, I guess it's all worth it. I can still go to the evening church, can I not? After all, the evening church is near uni, and I'll spend all day there! Not so much difficult ... I hope.


I decided to change Cobweb's story to include a specific machine called 'clockwork,' instead of calling them just 'machine.' At first I was thinking of calling them as robot, but after further thinking, 'robot' sure sounds so futuristic. This story didn't take place in the future, but just an alternative world based on ours at this very second. Then I moved to 'machine,' as I was saying before, but this I also dismissed. It sounds so very Terminator-like.

So, I suppose, clockwork is better. They were all made of parts of a clock, of course, as the name suggest. The original idea came when I was browsing Endling's DeviantArt. There was a drawing of clockwork bunnies, and I thought it was really wicked, and I wanted to take the idea of creatures made of clockworks. Ideas are not copyrighted, are they not? Besides, I also created the creatures myself -- I just got inspired by the 'clockwork' name there. I love his creepy-drawing-style.

I'm still in process of designing the characters, though. I got the idea of the story itself, but the characters ... still need some changes.


By the way, Yahoo!News said that tonight the moon will be much bigger and brighter for the last decade. Especially tomorrow, 5 AM in the morning, it was the time the biggest moon reaches its full shape. I wanna see!
