당신 may ask who and what is Mary Sue and a Gary Stu?

Well my follow 팬 popper a Mary Sue and Gary Stu is a written 또는 drawn mistake, lie 또는 fake.

Why are they supposedly a lie 또는 a fraud?

Silly you! They're a lie and,or a fraud because they're perfect, no flaws, no issues, and no worries. Basically everything a human isn't 또는 can't naturally have.

Mary Sue- Is a female who is beautifully, smart, sexy, strong, independent, sentimental, generous, slim but curvy at the same time,and yada yada. She's basically the perfect woman with no flaws and a sex symbol that tops over all other sex symbols. Her talents, her beauty, her smarts, her body, her everything is better than yours and everyone agrees and loves her. Anything she does 'wrong' is a misunderstanding and in the end she's still the lovely and good Mary!

Gary Stu-Is a male who's sexy, handsome, smooth,smart, sentimental, tough, bad boy,edgy,romantic, muscular, strong,has lots of money, and smooth with the ladies again because this is kinda a huge point to them. Basically he's everything a Mary Sue is but is a male. He makes your man like a dumb ugly dog. ( 개 are cute 의해 the way. Not cuter than 고양이 though) He has no real flaws. Bad boy, no because every girl 또는 guy ( there's no discrimination in this 기사 except against Mary Sues and Gary Stus) has a bit of a soft side for the dark side. ;)

These 'people' aren't real because of these facts they have no flaws 또는 problems. Especially no challenging problems that has to take a whole series 또는 book.

Harry Potter,however, is faced with challenge after challenge that the main challenge, Voldemort brings upon him with his followers to help him. Also Harry deals with personally problems and feelings that we all had, can relate too, and are very much human. Harry's challenges last each book and the main challenge lasts through the whole series and with these challenges he grows, develops, understand things, and find ways to stop the badies and all that good stuff.

Anyway, how do they become to exist?!

That's what everyone asks! Why? Because Mary Sues and Gary Stus are common in literature, television,plays, and movies. Even in popular,well written and applauded works of art.
They exist because some authors,artists, directors, writers and all them wanted to have a character who resembles themselves but are the better versions. 또는 they are what everyone should strive to be but are impossible to reach 의해 all humans because the standards are impossible to reach.But remember not every character standard can be considered impossible especially if they are a real character not a Sue 또는 Stu.

In My Little Pony Twilight Sparkle became a princess in "Magical Mystery Cure" because she understood and knew the power of friendship. She of course was then bashed for becoming a Sue. But can 당신 call her that? No because she had fears and problems. But she overcame them through out the series with the help of 프렌즈 and her own courage and bravery. This also gives her character development but we will go over that later. Her standards weren't too high and impossible. 당신 have to overcome something life changing 또는 different than anything 당신 ever experienced. No 당신 won't become a princess 또는 a prince, 당신 will however feel some accomplishment and arise up from your old way(s) and become a better you.

Are all characters we look up to and want to be like Mary Sues and Gary Stus?

Hell No!Well defined characters are 더 많이 human like. They have flaws and strengths that sometimes out weigh the other 또는 are equal.You can relate to them because of this.
Flaws if 당신 most know are faults,weakness, and imperfections within 또는 outside a person,idea,thought, 또는 thing. They can be small 또는 big depending on the way it is used and looked at. Strength however, are good 또는 beneficial qualities 또는 attributes of a person,idea,thought, 또는 thing.

How do I avoid making this character!?

Wise one!! 당신 don't what a lifeless, boring drone. So here are some steps:

First the basics:
The character name, looks, and personality.
These can change depending on the setting the character is in. It's been proven 의해 many other people that Mary Sues and Gary Stus usually have names that have a super specially meaning. But there are acceptations if 당신 ask me. For example, a baby is born during a war and the parents decide to call the baby Victory 또는 Hope, Victory to remind them of what they strive for. Hope is as basic as it can get.

Appearance can change variously depending on age,era, style and person. Now here is some limitations, she 또는 he can't possible look better than everyone in the whole room unless the story is told 의해 the person who loves our heroine 또는 hero. Why because they're opinion is going to be bias because they are in love. 또는 it could be bias if the narrator is our main heroine and she/he believes she/he's 더 많이 gorgeous/handsome than everyone else but this could be written as either a flaw 또는 a strength because she/he is either arrogant 또는 confident.

Here are some body limitations if she is bone thin don't say she has curves in all the right ways, if she's chubby don't say she's fitter than every girl in school because it's kinda unrealistic for both lines. If he is bone thin don't say he's the best football player because of his natural physical strength alone. Natural strength as in no powers, no magic, no drugs, no bribes, no video games, and no dreams. But again if it's from a bias persons point of view it can be put off as an acceptation. It could be written off as being a Mary 또는 Gary when the story is told basically 의해 an unbiased 또는 outside character.

First off the character can be attractive,friendly and smart. Why? Because both woman and men can be this way without being perfect.The reason why a person could have these strengths without being a Mary 또는 a Gary is because the strengths most likely will be balanced with flaws 또는 occasionally topping over each other.There are 더 많이 strengths too 의해 the way. Such as talented, generous, open minded,creative,exciting, lovely, elegant, popular,independent,strong,healthy,athletic, brave,witty,cunning,etc.There are many flaws that are out there and could be a trait for a human as well as a character ,such as being ignorant, close minded, lazy, boring, dependent, weak, coward, arrogant, naive, bossy,ugly,mean, etc. As 당신 can see some 또는 most of the flaws is the opposite of the some 또는 most of the strengths.

Second: Back story and Goals
This is where we know the history of the character and can direct us to the character's possibly future. This is where we learn who's their family and 프렌즈 are, possibly their enemy, were there some lovers, were there some 심장 break, 또는 were there some terrible things that happened to our character. Was it death, rape, molestation, traumatizing experiences, 또는 something? The back story can example many things about the character whether why the appear this way, why do they live here, why do they 사랑 this 또는 hate that, why are this/that way? Back story is basically what were character history,present and future is.Make them at least have one personally fear because everyone has one. Give reasons why they are nervous 또는 afraid of this 또는 this happening.

Goals are basically what the character has accomplished 또는 hasn't accomplished yet and what they want to accomplish. This also help us with the back story of the character 또는 the whole story itself, This can also tell us why the character act this way, like this and dislike this, and are a certain way. Goals, back story, development and personality in my opinion is what makes a deep character. Deep characters have complicated feelings, thoughts, goals, development and personality.

Development is of course how much the character progress, learn, and better themselves and others. 당신 also will learn the rawness of the character, what they are and who? Why they do this 또는 do that? 당신 understand them and relate to them. They are slowly fixing their flaws and inspiring 당신 to do so too.

A Mary Sue and a Gary Stu does none of these things 또는 have these things. They aren't complex, they weren't hard to figure out. 당신 what is happening before it is happening and there's no real problem 또는 suspense around them. Why? Because Mary and Gary aren't meant for serious novels and 텔레비전 shows. They're little characters the author 또는 whatever put there just because.

Don't make Mary Sues and Gary Stus. Just telling it how it is!

I told Cameron everything, except the part about me being a sea witch. I don't think he'll be able handle that.

"So 당신 take pictures of mythical creatures that 당신 have believed in since 당신 were 5."

"That is correct."

"Unbelievable."

"I'll tell 당신 what's unbelievable. The fact that you're so calm. When I tell people my life story, they think I'm the craziest person they ever met."

"No, that's perfectly believable. 당신 are insane!"

Oh the irony. "No Cameron, it's the truth."

Cameron got up and went inside.

I followed him. "Why don't 당신 believe me?"

He turned around to face me. "Because I'm not...

This was the first time when Zean was going to talk bout his past. He continued “I want to talk… if 당신 have time…” “oh yeah I do have” said Ben. “Ben...” Zean said looking at his shiny shoes, but Ben looked at his face. “ I 로스트 my parents at very young age.

Celeste's POV:

Since a long time ago, 30 years to be exact, wizards and witches have been mortal enemies. The wars. The discrimination. It would not stop. Thankfully now, it has settled down. That doesn't mean the hatred has stopped, it just means we witches make sure we don't go anywhere near wizards.

"Wha-BAM!" I sent a powerful charge into my hand. A neon 주황색, 오렌지 light fired at the object I held in my right hand. "Hahahaha! Perfect!" I cried. The sweet 차 I had was now turned into a one of many healing potions. I sighed enlightened. "Another job well done, Celeste." I had to admit, I was a...

The Murder in Falling Haven
“I had never spoken a word in my life, and wasn’t planning to try. 다음 thing I knew, someone took the chance to away from me.”

“Hello, Lucas!” cried Beverly Claims, the village washerwoman. “Going back to the mansion with your daughter, I see?” Lucas Raymond smiled serenely at Beverly.
“Yes, Beverly,” he said happily. “We’ve just received word that my dear Uncle Charles had died the 이전 Tuesday.” Beverly’s round and composed...

Alexander left for Boston yesterday. He left me with spare keys to his apartment. I promised him I would go apologize to Grey. I wasn’t excited about it, but it had to be done. I was going to do it today, the sooner the better.
    I sighed as I rose from the leather couch, and took the keys from the hook. I walked to Grey’s house. It looked the same. Her car-well my car that I didn’t take with me-sat in the driveway. She didn’t have to work. I went up to the door and knocked.
    I stood there a moment, and waited. I heard footsteps and the door...

December 14, 1941. I, Chanhassen Dobbins, am a young thirteen year-old girl that is living in New York City. "Chanhassen Marie Dobbins!" My mother calls me. In my gray nightgown, I make my warm 침대 neatly. "Sometimes, I wish I was younger." I mumble to myself. As I change into my regular attire, I open the chipped wooden door from my bedroom and follow my mother's voice. Walking down the dark brown staircase, I see my mother sitting at the 부엌, 주방 표, 테이블 drinking milk. "Ahhhh...! Chanhassen! Lydia wanted 당신 to meet her in her father's cafe." She takes a sipof the mug with her chapped tan lips....

I went back 집 for a few hours. I 빙어, 빙 어 of old paper and cologne. I decided to get a shower; maybe it would calm my anxieties about tonight. As I scrubbed myself, I decided the only thing the 샤워 was doing was ridding me of my office scent.
    I got out of the 샤워 and put on some clothes. I wore a black, v-neck shirt, with a pair of tight black pants. I towel dried my hair, and messed it with some gel. I put on cologne, just in case anyone got close enough to smell me. I put the cologne down, and checked to make sure it was in place. My arm muscle twitched. I left...

Hey, so this is a poem Ive been thinking of for a long time,please read and comment!



The Spirit

The spirit rushes on,
Swifter than the wind,
To find answers,
To seek the way.

The spirit flows on,
Like the river.
Flowing on to find the ocean,
A 집 for all its dreams.

The spirit shines on,
Brighter than a thousand suns.
Shining on to clear the darkness,
To find the path.

The spirit lives on,
더 많이 eternal than the sea,
Living on to find its home,
Where all the ends shall meet.

“We’ve got him this time,” said Special Agent in Charge Sheelia Tanner of the FBI. She sat in the passenger 좌석 of a plain blue sedan belonging to her partner, Special Agent Scott Carver. Scott was a fit, trim, athletically-built man with short blond hair, blue eyes, and chiseled features. He was average height and had a generally serious, but approachable look. Sheelia was only slightly shorter, still quite tall for a woman, also very fit but sleekly built like a dancer. Her father and mother were of mixed heritage, including black, white and Asian, and she seemed to draw all her features...

"It's something unpredictable, but in the end is right."

I can still remember the disappointment in those hazel eyes the moment I told him I was leaving. I couldn't stay - I had no choice. I still can't decide whether it hurt 더 많이 to leave him, 또는 to know I had been the one who caused the pain. What was I supposed to do? This child needed guidance and protection now 더 많이 than ever, and I couldn't help him. For so long I had been the one to console him - make him feel 안전한, 안전 - and it was coming to an end. It was... the rule.

My stuff has already been moved down here to the jungle. I still can't shake off what happened yesterday, but Howl's been very sweet to me, assuring me everything's okay. Debbie has been helping me unpack my stuff and everything. Some people are still thinking that I'm crazy for moving down here, but I wanted to. Howl couldn't really adjust very well to my world, but with a little bit 더 많이 time, I'll get used to his world more. Debbie ran up to me and hugged me and asked," Lil, I know this may sound ridiculous and silly, but is it okay if I may stay with 당신 guys?" "Deb-" "I know it sounds...

    We had been training for this moment since the apocalypse.

    Two years 이전 a killer disease criss crossed the world. This disease killed people almost instantly. The people who were diagnosed died in a few horribly painful hours. Only a handful people survived. My twin sister, Victoria and I were one of those few people. Sadly, even our parents died of this disease. We were only twelve when it happened and I remember our parents begging on their deathbeds that we get the vaccine. The doctors would only give us the vaccine, not our parents.

I woke up after my nap, to find Howl is gone again. I looked out of the cave, seeing the waterfall running, but then I look down to see Howl. Howl is in the waterfall, washing himself, as if he were taking a 샤워 또는 whatever. I left him alone, and went back to my nap. I had this very freaky dream while napping: I had a nightmare that I was back 집 in New York with Howl. Everyone back 집 looked demonic and scary. Mom and Dad didn't look like themselves. They looked non-human like and cannibalistic in a way that even scared me. Howl was no where to be found, as Adam was trying to 키스 me...

Then things got weird I was hit 의해 a car and was sent to the hospital obviously.

Forever
Forever 당신 are mine
Forever I’ll be here
Forever is what 당신 promised
Your 심장 is worth nothing
But the your soul is priceless
Forever can be a long time
Forever can be a long time cut short
It’s worth the suffering
It’s worth the sacrifice
To forever be yours
Forever protected 의해 your eagle like wings
Forever loved 의해 your ocean wide heart
Forever 안전한, 안전 in your warm embrace
Forever is worth the wait
To be sliced thin
To stuffed thick
Forever is Forever
Forever is Eternity
Forever is a risk
Forever is a chance
Forever is worth the wait

preface

if the one person 당신 told the truth to all the time was now the one person 당신 have to keep it away from, would you?
would 당신 be able to lie through your teeth and pray that he believes you? what if he was the one person 당신 told everything to, he was the one who keeps 당신 from falling apart, but if 당신 told him anything he might be the one to bring 당신 tummbling down.
if 당신 had to chose between lieing to him, hurting him, and keeping him away from you, what would 당신 chose? because if 당신 dont chose right, he may very well die.
That 일 I thought I was a failure. I was sitting outside our house on a bench in my white dress, just staring at the dark sky while raindrops were running down my cheeks. It could have been tears as well, all I knew was that it was raining pretty hard.
As she noticed I was outside, she opened the door and told me to come inside, where it was warm. Her soft voice told me she was going to make some 차 for me and that everything would be okay.
I didn't even look at her when I got up and started to run.



The 잔디 felt wet and cold under my bare feet as I was running towards the nearby forest,...

I kept on laughing at his idiocy. I turned my head away when he caught me looking at him. I heard a slight chuckle behind me while Looi continued to make his way to the front of the long line while I followed him.
    “Hey, girlie!” I heard a voice shout. I turned to find the man looking at me and motioning me to come over there. Looi turned around and asked me, “What does he want?”
    “I don’t know.” I replied. I started to go over to where the man sat, but Looi stopped me with his hand around my upper arm. “No, he, he might be a child...

I am bored with love
and it's passionless limbs
that drape over my bed
in a lethargic state of impotence
while wearing the same red heart
my soul picked up hitchhiking
off highway serendipity
Now here we are
alone in togetherness
trying to build dreams
with two 의해 fours and glue,
but even a home
won't tie us together
when our hearts live alone
Poetic vows cliched
into nothingness
like all words do, eventually
and we allowed our bodies to become another pair of hollow shadows that make 사랑 to a wall
instead of each other
and we wonder why
the 장미 are dying
