Reply to this post with anything you’d like and I’ll tell you why I friended you and two things I love about how you play your muse. The only catch? You have to repost this as well.

He was everything I had been warned about. He was tall, rather handsome in spite of the patch over one eye and he carried himself with an aristocratic arrogance that should belong to no less than a Prince.

Prompt: 2.G -” Everyone has a talent”
Link: http://sunnotshadows.livejournal.com/2600.html#cutid1

Amarante has been asked by her Mistress and mentor to gaze into a scrying mirror and attempt to bridge the gap between the living and the dead. This writer never fails to strike awe into me.

Prompt: Surprise!

Notes: Ecklie is probably one of the best antagonist / protagonists on LJ. He offers the perspective that is more often than not directly opposite of that of Gil Grissom. Ecklie is awakened from a sound sleep by Grissom for news on a case. A really good insight into a man that few even bother to try to understand.
