Can I write a sappy romance fic where DEONIDEAS punches out a titan?

Romantically?

would you mind making up your own manly author name? I think'd it'd get pretty stale if we all used the same one.

Done. I thought we might want consistency in the names, but I wasn't attached to that or anything.

It's easy to work with pulp fantasy.

As long as it's a greek-style titan.

dude, Conan the Barbarian had a bunch of different writers over his literary lifespan.
It's fun seeing the directions that other authors take the character in!

Romantically?
can it be romantic AND manly?
dare I say... roMANtic?

don't worry bros, we'll all get to find out what happens to Deonideaseuesuez at the hands of our hero.

I'll write the second half tomorrow (or later tonight if I have time...)

in the mean time, you can always speculate on the events of vester's story!

There are three riffs in this, and I just want to see which ones people think are more fitting. It's done in Fruity Loops since I can't play that well myself. They will sound better with incorporated drums, and stuff, but, yeah

Riff #3 is the least likely to make it, but pulp fantasy needs a metal-ish soundtrack in my opinion, and Riff #2 comes ... close. My brother is more of the metalhead of the family, and he was the one who told me to keep it this slow. (it was originally faster)

Deonideas's theme song

Wrong, this is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YL8jOZ9yqRE

Deonideas left the building, weary but enlightend. He was some how going to go to the realm of Helios and make everyone bask there in his glory, but how to do this was the question! His mentor teachings included so little on this subject, yet he had to do so little. His only vauge idea of what to do was to make a cannon, and blast himself to the sun. He had no materials and only a hundred or so persian slaves. For inspiration Deonideas went down to the docks in Athens. While he was going he saw that two children playing with a bass skeleton, they were building a apartment with the ribs. Sudden and unique Eureka came to him!  A massive battle just occured a month ago and there was piles of dead persians. HE WAS GOING TO MAKE A CANNON OUT OF PERSIAN SCUM BONE! He ordered his hundred or so (he could never tell) slaves to collect the bones. They worked day and night, bringing back the bones on brittled carts that barely worked. The piles reaching nigh high, by the end the piles looked like a bone atlantis. The building of the Cannon was easier than the collecting, Socrates helped with the blueprints and the slaves worked magnificently. Now onto the fuel and actually firing himself off.
