Good evening all!

Goodness gracious, first post! Well, what to say... My name is Bee (isn't that a cute little nickname?) and feel free to address me as such. I'm a pretty big National Treasure fan, if I do say so myself. I'm hoping with this new movie and the revival of the Briley (yes, that's the official name) fever, we should have even more lovely stories and art to enjoy. I'm actually in the middle of writing a little story, myself; perhaps I should give you wonderful people a preview?

            ...Before the door was even fully unlocked, a sharp cry of Papa! followed by the harsh clatter of something falling on the floor reached his ears through the thick wood. Interesting, Ben acknowledged as he pocketed the keys and nudged the door open with his foot, but not unusual for their eccentric family.

“What happened?” He asked in lieu of greeting when he reached the modest kitchen. Riley Poole, techie-turned-father extraordinaire, stood up from his hunched crouch on the floor with their giggling daughter in his arms. Ben regarded the upside-down face of the four-year-old with mild bemusement.

“Alice,” Riley indicated the wriggling little girl who was now flailing to be put down, “heard you coming and decided to stand up on the chair – which is something we do not do, young lady,” he addressed her sternly as he set her down on the floor, “and she fell.”

Since you're wonderful, and everything. I have about two pages (exactly, as of this post) and it's still kicking. Trust me, that's a good sign. Depending on how inspired I am and how busy work/school (I'm in my last semester of my senior year at high school) is, I should have this kitten done within the next week. A little encouragement from a fellow fan or five never hurt either. :]

Cheers dollies!

Your icon = love. I think it might be my favorite Riley icon ever. Like I said above, I'm staying home from school today, so I should get a lot more done. I'd really like to get this story posted in the next few days. :]
