Oh, "Lost My Will to Live"!
Submitted by PenelopetheFox on Sun, 05/25/2008 - 20:49.Oh, "Lost My Will to Live"! Why didn't I think about that one? It's a good little hair. One of my sims is currently sporting it. But has Vash really reached that point of desperation?
Hmmm.... Choices,
Submitted by Twistedchic911 on Sun, 05/25/2008 - 21:24.Hmmm.... Choices, choices.... Personally, I like Osh's ponytail, but that's the thing, its Osh's ponytail. Vash needs an original hair, something that screams his personality and mood! Something like "Lost My Will to Live!" *Squee* Why didn't I see this earlier? I think that they also made a tied back version just in case the wearer wants to have some room for his tears to flow down his face. *putters off to hunt down and download*
EDIT: OH and is that Haakon? He's not ginger anymore, huh? Guess his hair got darker.

Vash is not that desperate
Submitted by Lothere on Mon, 05/26/2008 - 04:04.Vash is not that desperate yet. Yet! But I think if he showed up at Paul's house with that hair, he would get tucked straight onto the couch with a pile of pillows and given a cup of tea.
Yet!
I think the combo of #1, #2 Osh's hair, and #7 desperation could work together. #1 for every day, #2 when he's feeling sporty, and #7 when he's getting out of bed or staying in bed all day out of despair.
I don't have a problem with him having the same style as Osh -- if he's going to have the same style as anyone, it ought to be a fellow elf. Maybe Vash was even the first to wear that style of ponytail and it was Osh who was copying him -- we haven't seen Vash in so long.
That's young Master Haakon alright. His hair is getting darker as he gets older. I plan for it to be quite dark or even black when he's an adult.

Edit: Never mind. Now I just have to vote.
Ok, so I hesitated so much !
Submitted by François on Mon, 05/26/2008 - 11:33.Ok, so I hesitated so much ! So many great hair (except number 4 and 5 that are ugly) ! I nearly choose The flip, but it's definitely too girly. Anyway, the hair in the eye is what makes Vash Vash. But then I thought about his name... Vash means a great big deep dark water, right ? So hair 7 is so like him. It's both the fact that he's so sad and I think there is such a great pond-water texture that make us feel he tries to go back to the elven world, making his appearance in harmony with his name. And this hair is also like his actual hair grew up with still this thing in the eye... This was quite long, but I think you got it, I love it !
PS : I think this forum is one of the greatest thing in Lothere. We readers can do what everybody ever wished while reading a great story : to get involved in how it's evolving. Those little things such as choosing Vash hair make us go more inside of the story. And thanks to make one of the biggest character's hair destiny in our hands. You must be afraid though... What if we all voted hair # 5 ?
Well I don't intend doing a
Submitted by Lothere on Mon, 05/26/2008 - 11:46.Well I don't intend doing a poll every time I change someone's hair or dress, but in this case I was kind of at a loss. And I'm so glad I asked, because I got some great suggestions of hair that I will use on other characters, if not on Vash.
However if a hair is chosen that I don't really like I won't feel obliged to use it. At the moment I do think I am going to do the team of #1, #2, and #7. Vash may be getting more despondent as the month goes on, so perhaps #7 will be appropriate then.
But I did promise to use whatever name gets chosen for Araphel! (Is Fergus still winning?) OK, so I took Saeward out of the running before the time was up, but I will use the winner out of the ones that are left.
I love getting feedback on the story while it's being written. Imagine, if people had been reading when I was about to kill Matilda! I might have saved her! Even if I don't necessarily do a poll, I do take people's ideas into account, especially if they beg and plead. (You all don't really think I'm going to kill Sigi or Eirik do you? )

Submitted by François on Mon, 05/26/2008 - 11:54.If you did so, there would be a Reading-Strike, no doubt about it ! The most charming and beautiful couple in the world ! Along with Sinne and Murchad (and what about them by the way ?) I only take note that the happy people live outside of the cursed valley of Lothere... And I hope Fergus will win because that name rocks !
I voted for the ponytail
Submitted by Cassie on Mon, 05/26/2008 - 16:34.I voted for the ponytail mullet, I love that one. I think the "lost my will to live" one would be good for a sort of layabout hair, though. I just think the other one looks really great on Vash.

Submitted by Lothere on Mon, 05/26/2008 - 19:18.They will die eventually, of course, but seeing as I just noticed it took me six months to get from December 3rd to December 13th, I think they're safe for as long as we live.

Submitted by Sonia on Tue, 05/27/2008 - 04:04.After much thought an deliberation...
...I've decided to settle for #1 anyway. I loved #6 but for the sudden slicing into the ear (ouch).
Gah! It was a tough choice, but the 'lost my will to live' cut reminds me of a tousled, sleepy-headed young man, just after a night of......
.... well, you can think of your own ideas of where and what he's been up to.
#2 The Osh style, makes him a little TOO grown up.
#3 It could do with being a little less 'shiny' , less orangey, and a little fuller in the back
#4 Looks like a mop, sitting on top of his head, same as #8, he reminded me of a Thunderbird for some reason
I shan't nit pick all of them, but these are my opinions anyway (a few months training as a hairdresser helped me out a bit)
Not that I'm trying to influence the votes here anyway
Poor Vash! If only he could
Submitted by Lothere on Tue, 05/27/2008 - 04:10.Poor Vash! If only he could be getting up to the things you imagine, Sonia!
I like #6 too, but not for elf ears. I think I'm going to try it on a few characters and see who likes it. Maybe Cedric? But at the same time I like the way Cedric's hair is back off his face, which makes him look kind of wide-eyed and frank all the time. But then again who knows how Cedric's character is going to turn?
Poor Vash! If only he could
Submitted by Sonia on Tue, 05/27/2008 - 04:38.Ha ha!!!
I was thinking of those nightly races through the woods, with leaves through his hair, and a totally dishevelled look. Trying to run away from his problems.
What were you thinking of?????
On another note, Cedrid's a little sweetheart and really sensitive to worry about his hair. He's got other things on his mind at present.
Besides, he's got a heart-shaped face that'll carry off any kind of style.
Vash's is long and (dare I say it?) horsey-like
