The Spoiler Zone is still the only place you can discuss KOTW, but while you're doing that, this is a book review that Amazing Phil did on Blue Peter. I used to watch Blue Peter all the time when I was growing up, so it's pretty cool to be featured on it, and I reckon Phil did a fantastic job of grabbing the attention of non-Skulduggery readers.
It's also really nice to catch a few glimpses of Skulduggery himself... I think the exploding pillar thing is EXCELLENT... and it really makes me want a Skulduggery movie even more...

«Oldest ‹Older 4601 – 4800 of 4876 Newer› Newest»Bethany: No... She killed some of my family. I didn't know them all but... I'm the last surviving angel.
(I got rather bored of it, Ariadne. It was not heading anywhere. There was no particularly story - for if Erebus wanted to extinguish all light in the universe, he would have done it much, much sooner - rather than waiting for some unknown reason.
And given the fact no one seemed to be actually getting anywhere in terms of stopping him doing said extinguishing, I figured it was pointless. And somewhat boring.)
(I got to like 10,00+ words and it all got wiped...gone...all of it. It was very depressing, but I had hit a writers block so...maybe it was for the best.)
*blinks staring*
Wow..
(Yeah, it was kinda...but I still liked everyone RPing together...)
(You find everything pointless and boring, Sophia. It's a wonder you show up at all.)
(Hey my amazing friends!)
Bethany: Wow?
You have an interesting view on the subject, Sophia.
*Adra finishes eventually, and tucks the painting away in her bag to dry* Hears lots of commotion- though it's mostly her memory*
(Hello Erebus.)
Yeah..Wow..
(I do not find everything pointless and boring, Blake. Otherwise I would not do anything.)
(Hey John, Rhos.
Idk, anyone who wants to RP i'll just...you know, be here. At Trips bar. Yup.)
*Wakes up and rubs her eyes*
*Slides out of bed and goes to get a drink from the wheelbarrow*
*Drinks some Nectar and sits in the bar on her own*
*wakes up, and checks his text from Adra*
(Please call me J if I speak in parenthesizes. Unlike you I am not so desperate to be someone other than myself that I only speak as a fictional character.)
(I presume, Alastair, that you are simply being polite when you say that.)
Bethany: Why wow?
*Adra's enjoying the silence, and rests her hand on her stomach* *She begins to listen, to make sure Erebus or Loki aren't nearby*
(I don't think it was pointless and boring at all. I thought it was/is great, best we've had in quite a while. I just think Erebus isn't on regularly enough for it to work as well as it could it.)
*The text would say: "hi babe xx"
(Um..ouch?)
The last angel alive..
(Hello Aria *hugs* and is it alright if I rp with you?)
(Hello Everyone else)
(I hope you understand, Blake, that personal attacks will simply have no affect on me. You are only a teenager, and there is no reason for said attacks. I simply gave the reasoning behind withdrawing my characters from the roleplay, which I am perfectly in my rights to do.)
((I place very little value in courtesy, Sophia. I genuinely find your perspective interesting.))
*smiles faintly, and sends her a text back: "Hello, love."*
Bethany: It's not that wow... I just fled.
*hugs her gently*
(I see. Then I thank you, Alastair, for not caring much about courtesy. I find it far too... restricting, for my tastes.)
(I am an adult, if you don't mind. The fact that "personal attacks will simply have no effect on you" is simply more proof of your arrogant and snobbish personality.)
*Sibyllin reappears in a library*
*Or rather The Library*
Tbh, though, the name is kinda stupid. There are other, better collections of rare books out there.

(Yeah, of course Rhos ^.^)
Bethany: *hugs her back* Anyway - so that's my family. Then there's Minerve's family. Who consists of... Liliana.
So our side of the family is represented by white. Our intentions are usually good - so we fire white energy. Minerve and Liliana, however, rarely have good intentions - so they fire black energy. But that only applies within our families. I am unsure why, but I believe it is because Phaestra and Minerve are related. But it is all about intentions.
(And Sophia, he asked to be called by his name. Not his character. That's just rude...)
(*cough*Soph,J,Stopactinglikethreeyearolds*cough*)
That's quite cool..
(thank you (^.^) )
*shadow walks into trips bar*
*sees Arai* Do I know you?
*She sends him a quick text: "sleep well?"*
*She stands, listening carefully, and begins to walk the wide sweep back to the lab*
(More likely, Blake, it is an indication that I simply do not care. Your words do not matter to me. I am in no way above you, I just see no reason why I actually should care. There are more important things for me to actually pay attention to, rather than childish ramblings.)
Bethany: It's rather... concerning, if you would see Liliana fire white energy.
*Jumps slightly*
*Turns around and faces him, glass of Nectar in her hand*
No, I'm afraid not
*Smiles*
And you are?
*texts back: "Yes, thank you."* *is quite amused that she texted him*
*smiles* I'm Garrett Falcone, master thief and necromancer *bows* at your service
You are?
Well..wouldn't if be good if she fired white energy?
((I'm pretty sure you can't shadow-walk into Trip's bar. He did make it Zaf-proof, after all.))
((What Sil said.))
(Sophia. What is the point of you? You don't exist off these comment pages, and all you do here is annoy people and start arguments. Why do you exist?)
*She sends him a happy kitty face* *Just because she can*
Bethany: Of course it'd be good... But it's just wrong. You know? A bit like someone with their head facing the wrong way. It's good because you can see backwards, but that's not what's supposed to happen...
(I fail to see what you are attempting to gain by arguing against me. I apologise if calling a roleplay boring somehow was a direct insult to you. Other than that, I have no idea why you started this in the first place.)
((What right do you have, J, to determine whether someone else's existence is worthwhile? On what grounds do you think yourself a fitting judge of whether the presence of a person anywhere is worth something?))
*is all the more amused* *shifts into a cat and curls up as he waits for her to return*
I'm Ariadne Silver.
Goddess of masses and Passion, Princess of Crete.
*Gets up and Curtsies*
*Sits back down and crosses her legs, taking another sip of Nectar*
(It was a question. I am not determining anything myself, on the contrary I am doing the exact opposite.)
At least she'd be good..
(Okay enough you two. J stop trying to undermine and insult Soph. Soph stop provoking him.)
(It is somewhat odd, Alastair, to think that one of the people whom I most agree with is someone who I would actually shoot. No offence intended, of course.)
Nice to meet you Ariadne
*looks over at Millhouse* Hello, can I help you?)
(Hi Adam *bro hugs* )
Bethany: Yes but... You don't understand. I... Hate Liliana. I still do... a little. To think that someone who has done such horrible things could have similar intentions to you is... Horrible.
(Hey Adam *does all 3*)
*flips argument on its head*
J, what exactly is the point of YOU?
@Sophia: That's because Alastair is awesome. :)
*nods and cuddles*
Okay..
(I exist to protect those I care about, no matter the cost to myself. Is that a sufficient answer, Star?)
*Glares at Star*
John has a point. What is the point of her?
At least John has meaning.
*Looks at him sadly*
*Leaves again*
(Ok this is getting way out of hand...)

January 14, 2015 at 8:40 PM
Is not the same true of Sophia?
@Chi: What meaning, exactly? And how does Sophia fail to have meaning?
Furthermore, why should something have a 'point' in order to exist? What purpose is art fulfilling in life? Pretty much none, right? Does that mean we should burn all art adn store something more useful, like food, instead?
(*facepalm*
*sighs*
Okay how bout we stop arguing guys?)
What is actually in that book that you carry around, Millhouse?
@Aria: *tries to think of an answer that isn't horribly immature, such as 'they started it'* *fails* *takes a few deep breathes*
In other words, thank you, Aria.
Bethany: *cuddles her back* So that's my family. And as you know, each god has his or her own realm. *she picks up a stick from the floor, drawing a large box* This is... almost a map. But you won't really understand the map... It's hard to describe. *she starts to draw little sections around the outside*
(Tell me then, who does she care about. And your view on life is rather pessimistic.)
*watches her drawing, concentraiting*
(John...Please stop now, ok? want to RP or something...maybe join me Rhos and Adam at Trip's bar?
No problem Star :)
*breaths
@J: That wasn't my view on life. That was a point developed on your implication that everything needs to have a point to exist.
And, are you even ASKING who she cares about? She cares about Silente, clearly. She also cares about people as a whole (as opposed to individuals) - which is why she has a job protecting humanity.
(I think that the only person that she cares about is Sil...she's like the only person Sophia talks to.
No offence or anything Sophia, I get that you don't really like us.
Star, come on, you stopped :3)
So...is that like an official spell book, and you're a famous wizard or whatever, and you made spells? or is that your own personal copy?
*Takes another sip of Nectar*
*Taps the stool next to her for Garret to sit down*
(Garrett*)
*smiles and sits down next to Aria*
Nice tome Mill house *looks at the book* *wonders what would happen if I were to steal it*
(I also care about you, Star. And although I care less about others, there are a few individuals whom I also care about somewhere in the mix.)
Bethany: So... These are some of the realms that the gods have. *jabs her stick into the centre of the box* We're here. Neutral territory.
Consider the realms like the source of the gods' powers. *taps on one of the sections covering the far right side* So say that is Phaestra's realm. To get to Earth, her power would have to travel from her realm - to this one. *she draws a line between them* But if there would be a realm here, for example. *she places the stick closer to the section indicating Phaestra's realm* She'd be more powerful, so she'd have more control over that realm. Remember when we went to the realm when we were trying to find Ember? The graveyard?
I didn't stop, Aria. I rethought things over a bit. Still rethinking things over.
However, my thoguhts pretty much go -
people attacking my friends = not okay.
me not defending my friends = me being a bad friend.
letting people think they can get away with comments like that = not okay.
@Aria: Sophia doesn't care about many individuals, no.
I fail to see why that matters. Is our value determined by the amount of people we care about? Out of all the traits we have, all the things we can do, why should one singular trait be stamped as a standard for all to hold to, despite the fact that we are all different individuals with different strengths and would benefit most from a variety of different targets?
And, furthermore, I think that Sophia is a lot better of a friend to Sil/cares more about Sil than I am a friend to my friends/how much I care about my friends. Is it better to care about a few deeply or about many shallowly? I don't see why one should be rated better than the other.
@Sophia: Well, yeah, but I couldn't say "Sophia cares about me." :P It's not socially deemed very . . . standard-able.
Although to hell with social standards, now I come to think of it. Sophia cares about me. :P
Yeah...it was all dark and yucky..
Although to be fair -
returning fire with fire = bad.
Forgiving = good.
Although alternatively -
violence = bad, words = good.
Although my words are quite violent. Oops. Maybe I should switch from 'anrgy debating Star' to 'nice neutral Star trying to tweak without opposing.'
Plus, forgiving = good. Acting like you forgive = good sometimes, bad other times.
Still.
*Sighs* I'm so bored sitting in here... it's like I'm grounded or under house arrest
*Laughs*
(I do not see why it would not be acceptable, Star. There is no difference between that and stating any other fact.)
Bethany: That was... *she thinks for a moment, before jabbing the stick into the left side* there. Near to Minerve's realm.
*shudders*
Ugh. I don't like the idea of being near Minerve..
*Sits up straighter*
Adventure? now that sounds fun...
I am afraid that will be rather difficult today, gnome.
*A shadow of Erebus floats near the entrance of the bar*
*Looks over to the door*
And why would that be, Erebus?
It is going to become very difficult to see. And to live, for that matter.
Bethany: I did tell you I felt weaker in that realm. Because I'm the daughter of a goddess and not an actual goddess, I am largely independent to all this. But when I get particularly close to one realm or another - then I start to feel the effects. But now I have my own little realm... *she draws a little section inside Phaestra's realm* So I almost have two sources. One from myself, and one from my little realm, which doesn't supply much power but nevertheless.
But... *she jabs the stick slightly off-centre, only a little closer to Phaestra's realm* Therald. That's my favourite realm besides this one. Remember the city with the large wall?

*Smiles*
So your plan is coming into play?
I wonder, would you tell me what it is?
*purses her lips*
(Sib? Don't leave, it's over...please come back...)
As I said, look outside.
*The shadow fades away*
You're doing what my sister does, Sophia. When my sister says a critical comment, which she does with great frequency, my mum asks her not to be so critical as it doesn't make the person on the receiving end feel very great, and my sister usually responds with "What? I was just stating a fact," as if failing to take into account the fact that some facts are more hurtful than others and some facts don't necessarily need to be stated.
Sentences are not divided up into "True," "False" and "Not mentioned in text" as they are in my languages exams. Each sentence carries tone along with it, along with things like implication. As such, it is unwise to merely pick your statements based upon how honest they are (although honest statements are good, of course. :))
Anyway. My point is, society deems that we all be modest.
*Frowns and goes to see what's happening outside*
*Goes outside, still drinking from her glass*
*One by one, stars are disappearing from the sky. The volcano looks as though it is in the middle of erupting, but instead of lava darkness covers the peak of the hollow mountain and shoots into the sky as a swirling pillar*
*nods*
Yeah, I remember..
Onwa: *is tired of waiting*
*Drops her glass*
No...n-no...
*Stares up at the sky, falling to the ground, not caring that she landed on the glass*
. . .
Lantern?
It's always over and it's never over and after a certain point, it isn't worth my time.
*Crawls away, her legs and hands bleeding*
*Looks at Millhouse, not being able to speak*
@Lantern: . . .
Fair enough.
(I believe that modesty actually makes sense as a social standard, Star.)
Bethany: That's Therald. Minerve has been attempting to siege it for hundreds and hundreds of years. She wants gauntlets... the Gauntlets of Hauren. My mother made them... They're capable of stealing a god's powers. It'd turn them into a mortal, even if they would still have their realm or not - they couldn't do anything with it. It would be like any other person in any other realm. But, for example, if I had the gauntlets and used them on Minerve... Then I would become the goddess of death, and gain all of her powers.

*hugs Lantern*
It's not pathetic
it's beautiful
like you. :/
It's good you'll be okay, though. *hugs again*
(But a person is more likely to like a modest person rather than an arrogant one.)
Bethany: Maybe... But I feel a real connection to that realm.
WAIT! take me with you!
*Sits and tries to pull most of the glass out of her legs and hands*
*looks around, doesn't want to risk incinerating anyone*
@Sophia: Yeah, but thinking you're worthless can get bad enough that not being liked can seem an acceptable con.
*smiles*
Maybe you should visit more often..Maybe that's your home realm.
*Floating in the center of the crater is Erebus, surrounded by the massive pillar of shadow. He seems oblivious to the world around him*
*Does as he says*
*Looks over at the massive darkness cloud that's coming out of the volcano*
(I suppose it does have its good and bad points, Star.)
Bethany: Maybe... I do feel almost the same thing I felt when pursuing Liliana. Like someone has been violent, and is being violent, towards my family and I need to defend them. But they... They defend me, also. I'm like... A figurehead? It's hard to explain...
*nods*
You're amazing..
Onwa: *glares at the tree, sweeping her arms wide and using air to splinter it apart from the inside*
*growls slightly*
*The sky is almost entirely dark. Stars, nebulae, everything is going out at a terrifying rate*
Bethany: I'm not... I just help their army out from time to time. Apparently having the daughter of the goddess of life, light and creation fighting with you helps morale.
*Looks down at Blogland and decides to take the risk*
*A very bright glow erupts from her body, incinerating any mortal that looked at it*
*Moves as fast as light, circling Erebus, lighting up his darkness*
YOU WILL NOT WIN!
*slashes at him with a magic dagger*
(I have to go for a shower so i'll ask to not go too far with the RP, I will be back and i'll try not to take long. I wouldn't ask you to pause it cause you know, destroying the world and all.)
I imagine it would..
Typical.
Bethany: So... That explains the whole concept of realms. But generally, wherever there is a boundary - where the gods' powers on either side are equal, or nearly equal, there is war. Unless the boundary is between two gods of the same family - excluding Minerve, that is - or if you have an alliance with them. Phaestra is allied with all of the gods apart from Minerve and Archeos. But Minerve and Archeos have a little alliance themselves - a treaty which Ember was used as a deposit for.
(Hello, Zafira and Loki.)
*winces*
Yeah..poor ember..
(Hey Loki and Zaf..)
*The dagger embeds its self in his arm, causing him to look at Ariadne. He keeps his eyes closed*
Is that so? If you wish to attempt to stop me and have gone to suck lengths to do so, I suppose I shall humor you. This body will become useless to me soon anyways.
*Darkness pours from Blakes body, causing it to tremble. After a minuet the stream of shadows stops and begins to take a shape of its own. Blake falls, no longer held in the air, into the volcano*
You will regret coming here...
Bethany: Yes... not that you had any sympathy for her, it seemed.
"But generally, wherever there is a boundary - where the gods' powers on either side are equal, or nearly equal, there is war."
:/
Same thing is true in the Stormlight Archive. So many boundary disputes. The Alethi are fighting against the Parshendi in an extended war/seige, but they're also fighting against each other because of border skirmishes, the lords squabbling over whose land belongs to who. So many innocent people who don't know what the fighting is about and don't care, but they're 'worthless' and 'only lower class' so they've been conscripted dying . . . and for what?
*winces, slouching slightly*
I had sympathy..
(I find the concept of fighting over land irrational. It is not a suitable reason to go to war with someone.)
Bethany: You were trying to annoy her...
I was only messing..I was joking around..
Hello.
Bethany: But she had just been in captivity for a thousand years...
I..I know...I'm sorry..
Onwa: *tries to find something, anything interesting*
(...
Sib... :c)
*shadow-walks to the volcano*
*sighs*
Onwa!
(Hello, Zafira.
Hello, Blogland.)
Bethany: It's fine... I just think... You seemed really sympathetic to me... And that was just a few hours... She got the same as me, and worse... But for a thousand years.
Onwa: *looks at Kas*
*winces*
I know..I'm sorry..
(Will someone link to the next post?)
*Adra continues to walk quietly*
(That's Tanya :/)
Evening.
By the look on your face, I can tell it's you and not Silente.
Here's how we're going to play it - you give me Sil, return her, and I'll let you keep Erby.
No need for... complications.
(https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1104475307058729066&postID=688545084047694565&isPopup=true)
Onwa: *smirks*
You want her back? No.
(Back)
*Watches Erebus carefully from mid-air*
*shrugs*
Okay, then I'm taking Erebus.
You'll just have to find ways to be happy with Sil.
Bethany: It's okay... Just... Try and be better with her if we see her again?
(I will be back soon.)
*The shadow takes the shape of an armored man, twelve feet tall, made entirely of darkness*
You will serve as my last bit of amusement before this universe dies.
*he swipes a massive hand at Aria, causing darkness to surge towards her*
Okay..
Onwa: *laughs*
You do that.
*nods at Sophia :/*
More than that, it's just damn horrible, in the case of personal land anyway. People die so you can be richer? Wtf?
Also, thanks Silente. :) For the link, I mean. :)
*shakes head*
*meets his fist of darkness with a fist of light*
(I've been looking at things again these past few days. Obviously, I always look at things, but now I form contingencies in my mind, ponder the stories of objects and wonder about the human story of it all. Everything is more than what it merely is, it's the end of a high of endless chain. To look at things in this way, it's magical. Even a discarded piece of litter on a city street threads back through several people. It's rather fun to imagine those people, to imagine their dreams and aspirations, what troubles they may be facing, and what's important to them. Obviously, the further back down the chain you go the less accurate you will be and the more general you must make your statements, but you can still follow the story, and in a way make your own.)
(And on the subject of people, if you're ever just walking, lettiing your mind go to waste, watch those around you. Try and spot the groups, the pairs. Then try and figure out why they're together, are they businesspeople? Lovers? Students? Then see if you can figure out anything about them from what they have, insignias, crests, uniforms and the like. Now of course you'll tell me that the things I discern from this will either be rather simple or hard to prove with the evidence I have, but that isn't what it's about. It's an exercise in learning, and in ampathy.)
(I don't know how many of you are old enough to remember this, but I'm on a quest to come to understand the functions of the minds of all those around me to the degree of perfection that I have come to know my own mind. In doing so, over the past two years I have learned how handicapped I am in my start in this quest, what with being so peculiar and all. I am genuinely separate from similarities with large chunks of my own society. I find it peculiar how this just makes me want the knowledge more, and learn more. Obviously, it is a fairly ubiquitous human quality. What really surprised me was how easy it was to pick up the basics of their social interactions.)
(Thus method has also allowed me to avoid many pitfalls I would otherwise have fallen into, learning from the mistakes of my contemporaries and forebears. This I realized is my ultimate goal: to be able to live my life through other people. Obviously, I will live mine and it's great, but there is no way that I could experience the breadth of human feeling and experience alone, as I wish to.)
(Sorry if that sounds really spooky and weird, but I'm basically saying you should listen closely to those around you and learn all you can from them. And I don't mean just be liberal and open minded with them, I mean learn everything you possibly can from each person. About them, their life, their mistakes, their loved ones and some might say most crucially; their knowledge of everything in between.)
Okay. You can kiss Erebus good bye.
Just kidding.
*shadow-walks away, filling Onwa's vision with temporary darkness*
*appears behind Erebus*
Stop or I'll stop you.
(*hugs Zaffy*
What's wrong?

Hello, Trip!)
(Also the next page)
Nothing, just reading the destruction of the world.-Zaf
(J will BBS.)
(Uh, Tanya. Both Erebus and Aria are in their true forms right now. There's more than enough energy in the area to atomize a mortal body.)
@Trip: ohmygosh you sound like my mum.
I've told you before how when we got on holiday she sits and staires out of the window, or she sits in a deckchair and pretends to read, and she observes everyone around us and she tells us everything everyone is doing and what she can infer from them from that.
For the record, my mum also works with people, and she's also very good at instinctually understanding people. So all the people-understanding must have paid off (although she's alreayd pegged most of her interpretation of the atmosphere of situations from growing up in a home with lots of arguing - apparently kids who grow up in those homes often go perceptive to emotional atmosphere changes).
Also, my mum is a wonderful person. So y'know. :P
Also, Trip, I suppose that's like the Book of Endless Pages. The idea that there is always more to learn. Always. And that you will be a betetr person for learning it.
Um . . . and thank you. And . . . you're a very cool person. :) :) :)
*the darkness and shadows that Erebus gave her to try to control have formed around her, protecting her from the goddess and the primordial*
*a faint trail of shadows moves from Erebus to Tanya*
That is my dagger leeching your power.
Try throwing some shadows at it, maybe that'll help.
(@Star Please no talkie religion, it might offend peeps :/)
(*Hugs Trip gently*)
*Adra hears quite a bit of commotion, and, curious, walks towards the sounds of the fighting*
*Hides behind a tree, listening to Erebus, feeling his energy*
Well all mine are gods, so this won't phase them.-Zaf
Thor: *shakes head, tempted to fly up and smack all three down*
(Hi to you too, Trip. lol)
(Friday night is basically debate night in my house, Star. :P But thank you. You are cool also.)
(Wbd soon)
Adrasdos, if you would like to stay alive, come by my sister and I, if this turns ugly, we can deliver you alive to Alastair.
*Glances at Loki, not fully trusting him* *She raises her middle finger to him, then continues to reach out and feel the energy of Erebus- reading him*
(*watches*
*debating whether Onwa is done yet*)

(But Tanya, what about learning about peopl, their identities and how they think? How does one do that without learning about their religion?)
(Also, the day I am no longer allowed to offend people is the day my freedom of speech becomes worthless.)
(Plus I'm a proper secular Atheist. I follow a mock religion, I'm so not religious.)
(Amen, Twip..)
(John i replied)
You wish for power, vampire? Take it.
*Magic floods through the link, more than is comprehensible*
(So basically he's overloading you, Tanya. Yeah sorry Aria, I had to go pick up my sister.)
Zanida: *bursts out laughing* I agree, Adra. You can kick Loki too.
Thor: What does that mean?
Zanida: She flipped him off, which he rightfully deserved.
@Tanya: . . .
That was a fictitous religion.
Also, I don't particularly mind if I offended people.
. . .
That sounded really bad.
I mean, if they get offended, they can argue with me, and I can argue that, and we'll meet on middle ground, which will end up with us both knowing more, plus I'll've got to argue, and that always equates to fun in my books. :P
@Trip: :) I like debating.
*The shadows work through the light, corrupting it*
*with Cara safe and cared for, Trip begins to sneak around the cataclysmic battle, grumbling about how this wasn't how he wanted to spend his day*
*attached to his back is a proton pack, an ideal weapon against incorporeal targets*
*he is commonly astounded by how nerdy mages can be*
*offend
That was meant to be present tense.
*looks for weak points in his armour*
*and I can argue back
-_- Sorry, I'm transposing words all over the place.
*Adra has her swords pressed to her sides, and creeps closer to Erebus* *She's behind him now*
*opens her palms and light bursts from them*
*suddenly, Trip is besides Adra*
I wouldn't recommend getting any closer, if you like the idea of not bursting into flames. I'm just hoping they stay away from the forest.
(Adra...you wouldn't be able to get close)
(I said behind him- I know Adra can't be too close, so does she. She knows where the limit is)
(I am back.)
Bethany: Thank you... Anyway. Fruit?
(Indeed, Star. Wealth is no reason to get people killed.)
(Hey Soph.)
*nods*
Melon first?
*Adra nods* Agreed. It took me years to nurse that forest into the state it's in today. *She shuffles to the side a little, trying to get a better reading on Erebus; his power is like a boulder beside the grains of sand of the rest of them* *Though hers and trips are more like pebbles* *She's having trouble getting the correct wavelength*
*The Asgardians walk over to where the three are fighting*
(How are you noelle, trip?)
(Hello again, Silente. *hugs her tightly*)
Bethany: Sure. *she smiles* Sorry for making everything so depressing there.
However, I suspect you wish to get closer, do you not?
(Pissed off.)
(*Trip's)
(*hugs tightly back*)
It's fine.
*gets the melon out*
Of course. *She bites her lip* This wall is preventing me from studying him correctly...
(I am better than usual thanks. I really feel that I'm learning from the world, not just from school.)
@Trip: :) I think you are learning from the world.
And, yay. :)
So many come to see then end...
*Only a handful of lights are left int he sky, and even those are quickly fading out*
