I've got this character in my head, and she's singing.

I drew
her dancing once, and it took me so long that I never bothered to give
her any clothes. But she's got clothes now. She's also got
butter-yellow hair that's short and whispy, and looks like it belongs
on a dandelion-fluff three-year-old. Her skin is pink and would sunburn
easily, and she dances with her bare toes in the grass.

Here is what she is singing:

Lavender's blue, diddle diddle
Lavender's green,
When I am king, diddle diddle
You will be queen..

And
that's how I remember the lyrics, which my mother used to play on the
piano and sing. But whenever I find the lyrics online, they're not
quite right... even though I don't remember the second part I know
they're not quite right. And the midi I found was very wrong. Is
supposed to go like this...

*manifests mother playing piano when [livejournal.com profile] elaby was six*

Like that.

I wonder if we really threw away all of those old piano books... I have no idea where they'd be now even if we didn't.

Suzari with her dancing toes and her dragonfly wings likes this song.

*glares at the Japanese word dictionary
that doesn't want to work for her* I wanted to look up a word that I'd
made up, to make sure it didn't mean something obscene. Apparently it
doesn't, because the page was working for [livejournal.com profile] caitirin and she looked it up for
me ^_^ She couldn't find it, so I guess it's not a word. I didn't
actually make it up, I kinda dreamed it... I was half asleep. I swear,
I've never gotten more phone calls than in the past two mornings that
I've gotten to sleep late! This was in between phone calls before the
weird dream where I was swimming around in a bay somewhere in Japan and
climbed out onto some warfs were there were houseboats, and where the
woman gave me this little football shaped cakeish thing with powdered
chocolate on it. For some reason I was looking for my friend Joselyn
and her mother, who were at some hotel I couldn't remember the name of.
And it was getting dark, and I still don't know why I was wandering
around the shores of Kyoto by myself. Eh. Anyway, the woman said I
should go ask this person called, I think, the Lavender Witch (only it
was lavender like the herb, not the color) and she would know something
about where they were? Maybe? I dunno, but the woman asked if I knew
about Kenshin, and I said I was familiar with the legend of Himura
Kenshin, the hitokiri Battousai. I guess I was trying to impress her or
something by using his full title O.o That was odd. Yes.

But
anyway. I had random visions to some Gackt song I can't remember the
name of, and I think I'll name one of the girls in it Suzari. Must draw
her! Sometime ^_^
