   LOL. Sounds very strange, though. And that's from someone who doesn't   
   like lengthy descriptions. I add some environment and scenery and even   
   clothes, when I feel it needs to be mentioned. (Or rather, feeling that   
   mentioning it is the right thing to do.)   
      
   I'm confused though. Up there you said there's a description of items in   
   a room, and then that there's barely any mention of things outside the   
   characters.

   Hehe. You could still try for a bit of the looks inside the characters,   
   find your own way to make it fit into with what you need.
