Seeing that I have over 100 deviants who've given me Llama badges in my message center right now, I thought I'd do a BIG Llama Art drop; instead of my usual 20 there will be 50 deviants featured in this edition of Llama Art. Enjoy!

He had a reputation to keep. But despite his complaints and arguments against the biology teacher that he and Thornton Wilson shared, he couldn’t deny that he lived the closest. Following that failed conversation, Will decided to accidentally forget to stop by Thornton’s house. He let slip at lunch that he was going to accidentally forget, and was met with approval and a small sense of reassurance. The Ox, as he was known to the football team, wasn’t a delivery boy for a nerd.
                Four hours later, Will stood—somewhat awkwardly—outside the Wilson house, fist hovering between his chest and the large wooden door. He’d mentioned the homework over dinner, at which point his mother stared him down.
             Before You Comment on the InternetThis is a thought guide to commenting on the internet--and also in real life. Before you leave an unsolicited comment or critique, send a note, or post on a forum or chat, ask yourself these three questions: 
1) Does this need to be said?
Or is it obvious and go without saying? Does it really need to be pointed out? Is it negative, inflammatory, rude, condescending, misinformed, just a guess, invalid, a logical fallacy, unintelligible, irrelevant, or just not worth saying? Then maybe don't say it.
Or is it humorous, entertaining, informative, enlightening, encouraging, thought-provoking, or something of the like? Will saying the thing you want to say benefit the people who will read your comment? Will it provide some value to the community at large or at least one individual? If so, proceed to the next question.
2) Does this need to be said by you?
Or has someone else already said it? Perhaps someone more informed, more qualifie         <da:thumb id="583214258"/>       <da:thumb id="378401726"/>      Found.You cannot join me
between these sheets tonight
though you've begged
to span the distance
by foot again and again
and I believe that you would.
I cannot lay my head
on your chest just yet,
it is true;
though the scene
plays through my mind
in the strangest of places,
and I haven't
slept truly
alone
since the day I realized
where my heart belonged:
when a lost girl
in your arms
was found.             <da:thumb id="481049952"/>   <da:thumb id="645176896"/>         Life of a Puppet: Chapter 1Someone splashes cold water on my face.
“Time to get up, fat-ass,” snaps a voice. I splutter and open my eyes. My stepmother’s scowling at me like I’m the scum of the earth. Did I mention she’s a stripper? She’s seriously anorexic, too. I mean, she makes herself puke after every meal… She’s so skinny that you can see her ribs no matter what she’s wearing. I’m actually skinny for my age, but she just loves calling me ‘fat-ass’ anyway.
My stepmother heads out of my room, thank goodness. I throw on a plain grey shirt and a pair of jeans. I don’t care much for fashion. Who has time for that crap anyway? I run a brush through my long black hair, and I stare at myself in the mirror for a minute or two. When my stepmother isn’t calling me fat, she’s belittling me because I’m so pale. Oh well. I look into my own grey eyes before leaving my room. I’ve always liked my eyes…
