Captions from Kerina ^^

When a picture inspires the mind and a story forms within.

Hehe, true. I try to find a touchtone impression to the image. I like to cap the concept with what the image shows. Like an image that sums up the feeling of an idea I have. Also I write all of these like mini-stories so the writing is more critical to me than the image. It's mostly just the inspiration. Seriously, there's not a caption I've done in this set which isn't full-length story material to me ^^.

This next one is kinda experimental because it's open-ended and color choices. I hope you all like it ^^ *bows*

*breaks down giggling* OK, I like that one. I did not see that twist coming, and that's a rare thing for a captioned image that isn't meant surely for shock value *cough*Nikkou*cough*.

*claps and gives Keran a caption cookie* I like the school girls one a lot. Wish that happened back in high school.
Keran's true self must have came through when he was changed into a girl.

I'm an idiot, so I didn't catch the twist. XD Model officer? Didn't seem like a model before. @_@ ah, well; the caption was still good, and I enjoyed it.

*Punts Akemi* It's not a crime. ;p It's just lack of creativity. ~.~

Yeah the ending to the last one is surprising, even with what people have written before i got to read it. Good job with all of them Kerina.

Nikkou - It'd be "henceforth" a model officer, meaning she was a model officer now and hereafter in her experience but I tried to keep it as short as possible so it would fit, although I wound up with extra space that I shortened. So I might put that word in if I do a version 2.0 and maybe add a few extra flourishes that occur to me ^^

Here's a new one @_@...uh...it's not my personal favorite *bow* Gomen ^^;;. But I did my best with an image I liked but a concept that hadn't quite grabbed me yet. I also tweaked the image a little.

The lone one... almost there. What you need is to somehow outwit the reader. You want to make it seem like the major is struggling with his reactions, but not the way you portrayed it. You made it seem like he was struggling against his own will so much that the ending makes me think the OICP was lying. What you need is a very subtle way to make it seem like he's struggling against his will, but when the reader hits the ending and sees that there was no mental TF, they can go back and see that you tricked them, and that it was his own will he was battling.

As for the recent one, yeah, it's kinda'... lacking. It's not bad, it's just very typical.

<_<

I should make some new captions I suppose... haven't done any in a while. I don't even know if Sak got my last ones up I haven't checked.

Yeah, I thought the same, which is why I didn't get the twist. But, eh, I eventually learned it so all's well.

As for the latest, I think I know what you were talking about, Kerina. XD I'm preparing to make a deluge of captions, and that image was one of them... But it was more appealing to the eye than something that grabbed me and shook an idea out of the cobwebs in my brain. I may or may not give it a whack... But I won't if the idea isn't stronger than the appeal I have for the image. Ack! As for the caption; even though it runs along the line of most of your captions (happiness and contentness and stuff for the transformed), it was alright. It was a better than the initial idea I had for it, most certainly. ^_^;

I thought it was alright... Very cute, and the concept was pretty nice... I will admit that your others are a lot better, though. Over all, I do really like your captions.
