...Well, mostly. Dancing has rhythm which requires music, and I'm starting this blog referencing it, butstill...not the focus of the blog post I'm writing! So anyway, I went to square dancing tonight. There was a Halloween dance, with a finger-food potluck. One of the things there was a cupcake with one of those cheap dollar-a-dozen rings in the frosting: a bat.
I took it, and much to my surprise, it was a comfortable fit on my ring finger. Not only that, but for the most part, it didn't get in the way of me doing anything! (Heck, I'm typing this blog post with the ring on to test its viability, and all signs point to: yes!) So I decided to keep it, and now am wearing it.
It's a bit of a risk, and I'll have to take it off for work, but I'm thinking of continuing to wear it as another makeshift jewelry piece. It feels good on my finger. Minor pinch to the skin, but it's not squeezing the skin and suffocating my finger; it's not tight at all. It's really perfect, honestly, for me to wear long periods of time.
Yes, it looks ridiculous, but so does my glow-in-the-dark bracelet that I've come to wear as a security-yet-comforting item. And while it can never hold the same sentimentality that said bracelet does (the bracelet having spawned Red Hood Rider), I'm thinking of immortalizing it all the same by incorporating it into Lord Ventrella's design. After all, Lords often wear rings, and the ring of a vampire should be dark and whatnot, so it makes sense for it to be a bat.
...Plus, it fits Ruby's character so much to have an item like that become attached to her. I actually think it'd be a neat way to give a shorthand for showing her status as the vampire lord, with it kinda acting as if one of the nine pieces of eight in Pirates of the Caribbean: a status symbol out of something that should be junk. Just in this case, said piece of junk, rather than being obscure, is something easily recognizable to vampires and instantly marks Lord Ventrella for who (s)he is.
...Speaking of Red Hood Rider, I've been compiling some mental notes. Mostly involving Ruby's super modes (how it's possible to combine them, yet she receives a warning not to combine all four at once), but also touching on Vili a bit. Such as why she's called the Violet Ranger. (Lavender tube top is technically purple, pants are technically a very dark purple rather than black, and she's a "one-problem, one-person" type of Ranger rather than Power Ranger, with the role of Power Ranger being given to Whitney.) Small stuff like that. Should probably get to writing those notes down before I forget.
