I finally have a new muse! I sent the evil slow one packing this morning. Ha!

I received my new muse from Daini on Monday, December 10, 2001 at about 3am, in #farscape. She came to me from the Bahamas (as opposed to Bali, where most muses run off to. Bali was overpopulated, as I hear it from she and Crikobu) in a little bitty box wrapped in silver paper with black swirlies on it and holes in the top. She was quite jetlagged for a while and slept all day long, but she’s fine now. Her name is Ysbrydiæth (pronunciation and meaning below). Daini found it in an online Welsh dictionary. I think it fits her perfectly. She's called her Yzzy for short. She’s got very long, fine, white hair, big blue-gray eyes, pearly skin, and faerie wings that she’s kept folded so far. She stays barefooted, talks softly, walks around silently (the better to sneak up on you, m’dear)... and she’s got this interesting little habit of, erm, walking around naked. Gee, wonder where she got that from?

She’s a very good muse. Yzzy already has me writing, where my evil last muse was holding out on me for weeks on end.

Ever seen a muse split in two? Well, not literally, cuz that'd be a big mess, and ew. It was a sort of mitosis thing. Except when Yzzy 'split', it wasn't just two Yzzys. There was Yzzy... and then there was a second muse. Pir.

Yzzy was in the middle of giving me the itch to write Chi/Sikozu fic (aiie, don't ask), when a novel's beginning crept into my head. A vampire book in itself, separate from my genealogy novel. Well, Yzzy kinda looks at me funny. "What's wrong with you?" I asked her, "I'll write the fanfic when I figure out the rest. You know I can't write pwp fic." And an arm popped out of her side. Yzzy eep!ed and another arm popped out. Before we knew it, she had two bodies from the waist up. o.O After a few seconds, they pushed apart and tumbled across across my desk. Yzzy shrieked and skittered over to hide behind my computer tower, while Pir stood, brushed herself off, and asked "What the fuck was that?"

Pir is a bit shorter than Yzzy, and not as skinny. Her hair is short, black, and wavy-ish, and she has light green eyes. I kinda get that she'd rather not run around naked (like Yzzy does >.>), since she wears some clothing at least; a frilly-topped black tank top, black tulle skirt, with a black corset over. She's always ready to switch to her 'I didn't do it!' expression.

Pir [ Pïr ] Hungarian (n.) - comes from the original Hungarian word 'vampir'- a shortening of the word.
