Alright, everyone! I've read all the entries, and I've come to my decision!
The First Place Winner is... *drumroll please*
Fallen_Snow!
I just loved your entry. The bit about Ireland. The lovely working in of my own characters. And more people tangled into Jade's life, with a possible lifemate! I dig it! I may rework the time frame just a little bit, you know, tweaking things here and there, but overall I love it, and I thought it was sweet and unique. Plus, it lets me make a character with an Irish lilt, and I love that. I already gave Marisol Tinker a bit of a "brogue," but she'll be a bit more... delicate? Yes.
The Second Place Winner is...
SweetDisaster!
What a lovely, sad story. *sigh; hand over heart* I really liked the name "Rache" too, but I think there's already a Lucain with that name out there. *didn't check* Also, it would've given me an excuse to use a Bleeder. So, while I don't think I'll be able to use your story, know that I did like it a lot!
Honorary third place mentions go to...
Audra and endermage! You both had cute stories, but your names! They're so beautiful, I loved them both. I really loved the sound of "Jean Sawyer," and with her Irish heritage decided on, I think Aisling would be a perfect name, don't you? So I'm going to mash them both together and create the name Jean Aisling Sawyer. Aisling Lokket was her stage name. I'll give you both a complimentary 10 KS for your lovely names, and for my stealing them. ;P
Fallen and Sweet, you can Pick your prizes from here. (2 for Fallen, 1 for Sweet. Yes, I know they're not much, but it's a mini-contest, after all. ) I'll also send you your KS, and you can pick your breeding, Fallen. It'll become my top priority when I get a room!
