The AB has been lowered for now in efforts to spark the auction to end.
This means the auction levels have been reduced as well ( so you get more for lower bids!)


Welcome to the first SOSCorp-sponsored joint auction.


This will be a short auction involving two artists, SOSCorp founder Thalassan (Kai Seward), and the incredible Katakeyana (Janet Kim).

If you can't bid, please have a look around and enjoy Janet's Art and listen to some of my music. That's what it's there for, to make people happy!

Samples from lyricized pieces:


Selection from "Rush Blue"

Turn around,
see you standing there in
denim with a
hole below the knee.
Collared shirt,
buttoned partially.
It's half tucked in,
half flowing in the wind.

And when I look into your eyes
Things are moving faster I realize
I'm surfing high
Up in the sky
I am rushing faster than the speed of sound
And,
Oh, Tsunami,
Please carry me,
To a city on a distant shore

Rivers flow
surely, in a song I know
Some they call it destiny
But I just call it you and me
And I would cross the ocean blue
Shipless just to be with you
Rivers flowing to the sea
Some things were just meant to be.
So I don't care what wise men say
Even though we met today
Waves are rushing over me
Think of all that we could be

The melody/baseline of the song from the beginning to "distant shore" is here [x]

Selection from "Convergence"

Baby met you on a convergent tide
Weather whippin' winds in a turbulent glide
But where the water flows in opposite streams
A torrent opens up to swallow our dreams

And when the maelstrom starts to turn
Don't you know
There's a place we can go
When the current runs too fast
Take my hand
And we'll swim together
Dive beneath the raging tides tonight

Later we'll emerge on the oppsite shore
In a city neither'vus has seen before
But don't you think the tide seems especially low
Hear the waves a comin, know it's time to go

And when the waves wash us away
Crashing down,
Wreaking destruction on this town,
When the towers start to fall,
Hold on tight,
Sorry 'bout the city
But I'm sure that they'll rebuild it given time?

Everything we know is being ripped to shreds and torn apart
Churning in the whirlpool's center, trapped within the maelstrom's heart
The raging current's tearing at my skin with no relent
But through the chaos, remember how it begins
This is how it went

Baby met you on a convergent tide
Weather whippin' winds in a turbulent glide
But where the water flows in opposite streams
A torrent opens up to swallow our dreams

And when the maelstrom starts to turn
Don't you know
There's a place we can go
When the current gets to fast
Take my hand
And we'll swim together
Dive beneath the raging tides tonight

Melody of this song from the beginning to the first instance of "tonight" is here : [x]
Full instrumentation style for this song is like so: [this link]

Selection from "Starlight Departure Threnody"

Take a look at the sky at night
At the Milky Way, at the city lights
Something's there that you can't explain
But it calls you so you chase it anyway

And I'm flying through the air
Something's calling, somethings out there
On a comet's tail I'm there
Something's here from somewhere else

Way back when I said, "Goodbye,"
All the tears that fell, clouds that filled the sky
I heard you crying as I left the ground
Bur don't you know that I'm still by your side?

And I'm flying through the air
Something's calling, something's out there
On a comet's tail I'm there
Something's here from somewhere else

Oh I'm searching for something out there
Through the cosmos I'm speeding
To where, I can't say...
