Novalis- German poet who influenced later Romantic thought, sometimes called 'the prophet of Romanticism'. Novalis took his pseudonym from "de Novali", a name his family had formerly used. The central image of Novalis' visions, a blue flower, became later a symbol of longing among Romantics. The 'blue flower' in unattainable and is to remain unattainable. Romantics expressed a longing for home and a longing for what is far off; Schiller called the romantics 'exiles pining for a homeland'.

What this means about you: The Outsider - You are constantly trying to get back in, but never find a niche to fit into. Your uniqueness is so unique, that your longing to conform is always just out of your reach. Being exiled just gives you drive to better, not the same, as everyone else. Always reach for that ‘blue flower’.

Well, since I don't feel like scrubbing decks aboard Ou Be's ship, I have decided to apply to captainhood on the fair Novalis.

I am a Romanticus: I love Greek and Roman cultures and their religions and their visions on Utopia, on the Republic. Whether I am an exile or not is unknown to me, but I do know that I am different, perhaps even unique. Aw, heck, just give me the position .

All positions are open, and remember, if you join this ship, you will receive pie!

W00T! Well, I know this probably won't make a good start, but I was kinda lying about the pie...

I do have this sake, which I stole from eRider (<-let's just pretend that's an evil smiley :P).

Anywho, I would like to welcome Smith_fan to our beautiful vessel. Already the place is filling with gorgeous women. Can't wait untill we are all alone in the sewe... Did I say that out loud? .

Heck, all that is me to a T. Though I don't get the 'blue flower' bit. I'd like to be a member of the Novalis crew, Captain HU, sir! (salutes HU)

Think you could get me to jump aboard you ship so easily eh? I know your tricks ;)

Seeing how I'm such a seductive, manipulating women ( ) I will have to think about my descion to join the Novalis, as I don't see much point in joining if I were to be a sliming crew member ;)

Anyway... that pie had me in at first, but seeing how it was a scam! (how could you tempt me with pie! Don't you have any social consceince! )

Anyway, until I have come to a more firmer descion I will be left a ship-virgin
