KOTW Paperback

Laydeeeez an' gentleminions, I present to you, the KOTW paperback cover.


And Tom isn't even FINISHED it yet...! There's going to be some colour stuff happening, and some cool silver effects added and things, but even as it stands now, this is a cover that's going to pop out at you on the bookshelf. For Tom is awesome.

Speaking of paperbacks, we're going to start gradually removing the short stories from the reprints, with the aim of collecting everything (including the Tanith novella) into one big book in the spring of 2014. There'll be lots of brand new stories in there as well, covering the entire series. So will we see a short story starring Mr Bliss, back when he was alive? Will we see Val and pre-Remnant Tanith fighting side by side once again? Will we even catch a glimpse of Skulduggery and the Dead Men at war with Mevolent...?

To be honest I haven't a clue. I'm just making things up as I go along.

Be here on Friday for the Tanith cover...

EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT

Annnnnd apparently I won't be revealing the Tanith cover until Friday the 23rd... bah!

Oh well that only took a half hour of searching. Oh yeah I probably can't be here for the wedding...

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

((BYE DELIVERY GUY!))

Moss Harbor Elsinore Lantern Cryptic said...

((Alright then.))

[Goes to get some snacks and stuff for the buffet]

Chione Asahina said...

You're so good with hair Silente!
And of course I'm excited. Blake is prefect...

Dragona Pine said...

(It isn't MY ship - its hers. Plus: why would I need a music player?)

Chione Asahina said...

((Zafira why!?))

Noelle said...

*Wheels herself to the top of the path that's overlooking the people down below for the ceremony* *Folds her hands neatly in her lap; her hair is pulled tightly back, without a hair out of place, the dark midnight sheen of her hair standing out from her pale face- her dress is a simple blue color, one that matches her eyes* *Stares blankly ahead, her body angles towards the site below in a way that would suggest that she's watching them* *Waits*

John said...

((Well maybe SHE likes listening to music, a lot of people do y'know.))

Dragona Pine said...

(She doesn't like music... but that still doesn't answer the question)

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

((hey Zaf!))

That's what 110 years alone with nothing but yourself as entertainment will do to you Chi. You master hair!
*smiles*
*picks up the curlers*
Don't move. I don't want you getting burnt.
*starts curling her hair bit by bit*

Star Inkbright said...

((Should Hunter and Ez appear now?))

Chione Asahina said...

*Stays deadly still*

John said...

((Weddings usually have music, since most people like listening to it. As previously stated.))

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

I won't be able to reply for the ceremony but i'll ghost it

Chione Asahina said...

((for the after party, Dragona. I want music to be playing, instead of waiting, would you do and get it?))

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*keeps curling the hair paying careful attention so as not to burn Chi*
*straightens when done and turns the curlers off*
Done.
*smiles*

Chione Asahina said...

((Aww Zafira...
And yeah, you guys can turn up now and get seated and stuff))

Chione Asahina said...

Yay!
You are amazing Silente, I'm so glad you're my maid of honour.
*hugs her*
You go and quickly get ready too!

((Trip isn't here...))

Chione Asahina said...

*makes a Tiara out of ice and places it in front of her bun with a veil attached and puts the veil behind her for now, will put it back in front as she gets closer to the lake so she doesn't hit a tree*

Dragona Pine said...

(kk Chione. ^^)



*goes to get some music*

Chione Asahina said...

*sits in front of the mirror and does her Make-up*

Star Inkbright said...

((Hunter: Cool.
Turning up now -
getting seated -
and STUFF.))

Hunter: *turns up now :D*
Ez: *turns up slightly after now*
Hunter: *that's in the new one*
*I'm slightly behind now*
Ez: *so you're late?*
Hunter: *no, you're late* *now is LATE*
Ez: *you're in now* *you're late*
Hunter: *no, because I was already here before now* *you appeared in now* *you appeared late*
Ez: *so you were already late?*
Hunter: *I had already avoided the lateness*
Ez: *so I appeared to avoid the lateness*
Hunter: *you APPEARED to, but you didn't ACTUALLY*
*although we should stop this arguing now, we're going to be late! :P*

*looks around*

Ez: *looking around* *that's very productive*

Hunter: *stop talking*

Ez: *I'm not talking, I'm roleplaying* *that was in-roleplay*

Hunter: *was not*

Ez: *was to*

Hunter: *this is childish*

Ez: *YOU'RE saying?*

Hunter: *I don't think we should be having these conversations in asterisks* *it distracts from the actual roleplaying and actual thoughts in the actual roleplaying*

Ez: *there's inactual roleplaying?*

Hunter: *EZ*

Ez: *what?*

Hunter: *SHUSH* *NO ASTERISK TALKING*

Ez: *you're asterisk talking*

Hunter: *SHUSH! SILENCE!*

Ez: *shushes*
*looks around with Hunter*
Adra's over there.

Star Inkbright said...

*new now

((Hunter: Star's typing, I swear.

. . . Which isn't annoying at all. It's sort of . . . endearing.

Ez: . . . Of course.

Hunter: YOU DOUBT STAR'S ENDEARINGESS?

Ez: *opens mouth to reply*

Hunter: *glares at her* SHUSH.

Star: Um.
*thinks they should kind of stop arguing and get on with it*

Ez: That's very helpful, Star, thank you. :)

Star: . . .
Um.))

Moss Harbor Elsinore Lantern Cryptic said...

[Finishes setting up snacks and stuff for the buffet]

[Glances around]

John said...

*Forms a suit made entirely from darkness around himself*

That oughta do...

*Turns to anyone who happens to be standing close by*

What do you think?

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Okay. Be back in a moment.
*runs off*
*to the tree house*
*puts on a black summery dress with some white parts that ends at the knees*
*quickly styles her hair slightly so its a little wavy*
*puts on eyeliner*
*runs back careful not to get mucky*
Okay back
*pauses and looks at chi slowly*
Ma soeur.. belle.

*Runs in*
I AM READY TO WEDDING!

Noelle said...

*Notices Hunter and Ez's sudden appearance about sixty feet to her right* *Plays with the brake on her wheelchair, debating whether to let it go and just roll down the hill until she crashes*
*Leaves it locked in place*

Chione Asahina said...

No idea what that means but ok
*gets up*
You look lovely :)
Let's go.
*is careful not to fall downstairs*

AFTER I GET THE APPROPRIATE ATTIRE

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

((**and some black tights. Forgot that part.))

Moss Harbor Elsinore Lantern Cryptic said...

JUUUUBI! Hi!

Dragona Pine said...

*comes back with a CD player and some music*

*gives it to Chione*

John said...

Hullo Jubi, glad you could make it...

Star Inkbright said...

Hunter: *gives a thumbs up to Blake as he passes by* Looks good, Blake!
*looks at Ez before she can say anything*
SHUSH.

((Ez: Which totally isn't bending the rules of reality.
Hunter: Rules were made to be bent.
Even that rule.
*he's quite hyper today, apparently*
Star: *does not think this bodes well*))

Ez: *reaches Adra with Hunter* Hi, Adra. :)

Hunter: Hey. *smiles at Adra*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

It means my sister, beautiful. We'll that's the literal translation.. My beautiful sister is what I was going for.
*picks up the train of Chi's dress so she doesn't trip or get it dirty*
*follows her down the stairs*

*Waves to the two*

Chione Asahina said...

*makes her way through the forest and stops as she sees the chairs to put her veil down*

Star Inkbright said...

Hunter: *waves back* What did you do to yourself?

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*holds the train of the dress and waits*
*whipers* ready?

Mary Contrary said...

(I MADE IT! :P)
(Sorry for poofing earlier, too. Things and dinner and crashing internet and things.)

*approaches the chairs and finds herself a seat, smiling* :)

John said...

*Pops up out of Adra's shadow*

You. No killing maiming torturing mentally distressing or in any way shape or form causing harm to anyone at all so long as you are within fifty miles of this place during the wedding ceremony. Got it? Actually, that goes for everyone.

John said...

*Drops back down into his shadow and pops up at the alter*

Noelle said...

*Adra signs "'nothing, don't worry. Let's get seated."* *Gestures that they go first*

Chione Asahina said...

Ready.

*walks out of the tree line and towards the alter*

Noelle said...

*Her ears peek up and turns a light shade of red, and doesn't react outwardly to Blake*

Moss Harbor Elsinore Lantern Cryptic said...

[Sneaks over to Taia]

Hi.

Dragona Pine said...

*puts the CD player in the hall next to the lake*


*sighs, wondering why she's being used as a bloody delivery service*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*the wedding march song plays*
*walks three steps behind Chi holding the train if her dress*

((WHEN DO YOU LET GO OF THE DRESS?!))

Dragona Pine said...

*goes and sits on a table with Hunter and Ez*

John said...

((Everyone take your seats before I make them grow arms and take you.


Please.))

Dragona Pine said...

(Sorry I poofed and it seems I was late)

Chione Asahina said...

((When I get to the alter. Which is now.))

*Comes to a stop beside Blake and looks at him through the veil, suddenly really nervous*

Star Inkbright said...

Ez: *frowns at Adra* *nothing* *of course*

Hunter: *shrugs, dropping it, but his eyes are grey* *he leads the way*

Star: *is there* Um.
Hello.
*looks around*

John said...

((This is the worst thought out wedding ever. Making a random minister character now.))

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

Hello again! :D

Chione Asahina said...

*is carrying a bunch of Cherry Blossoms as they are her favourite flowers*

Star Inkbright said...

((Hunter: Sorry. Our comments would have been PERFECTLY on time, but Star was being . .. endearing.
Ez: You're fighting a losing battle here, Hunter.
Hunter: Shut up.

Anyway -

we're sat at a table.
Hi, Sophia.))

Hunter: *waves at Sophia*

Dragona Pine said...

Hello Hunter.


*looks around seeing everyone in dresses and suits*

*looks down at herself in armour*


I swear, if my ship wasn't in for repairs I'd have some bloody clothes. Mostly consisting of jeans and a hooded jacket but it'd still be better than going to a bloody wedding wearing armour.

Chione Asahina said...

((Well, you're actually sat on pews, the tables and chairs are for the after party in the hall, the ceremony is out in the open. But never mind. You're all wrong :3))

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

*Has no idea where he's meant to sit*

*Sits there anyway*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*let's the train of the dress fall elegantly to the ground*
*takes a seat in a pew smiling*
*sends up a silent prayer hat nnothing goes wrong*
*wedding march song stops*

Dragona Pine said...

**sits on a pew next to Hunter and Ez, then*

Noelle said...

*Listens to Chione's dress as she walks, and the swish that it makes, sniffing lightly, getting a pretty clear picture in her head of what the dress looks like* *Of course, she's look great anyway*

*Listens*

Star Inkbright said...

Hunter: Armour is cool.
If someone wrecks this wedding like they did the LAST Blogland wedding, you'll be prepared.

Ez: They're not going to wreck it.

Hunter: Aw. *frowns* That was the fun part.

Mary Contrary said...

*grins and nods greeting at Fabi*

*eyes follow Chi up the aisle to Blake*

:3


((Unfortunately slow internet results in slow comments, sorry!))

Moss Harbor Elsinore Lantern Cryptic said...

[Thinks Chione looks absolutely gorgeous]

[Watches her]

Star Inkbright said...

((Hunter: There is a theory that pews are actually tables.
Ez: *rolls her eyes* *Hunter's just inventing this on the spot*
Hunter: *sees Ez* *insists* No, there is.
Ez: Sure.
Hunter: So whatever we're sat at, whether it be a pew or a table, it be a pew or a table. *nods*))

John said...

*Lifts up Chio's veil*

You look beautiful...

((Skipping the "we are gathered here today" stuff...))

Random Minister character who was previously mentioned: Will you, Blake Soul, have Chione Asahina to be your wife? Will you love her, comfort and keep her, and forsaking all other remain true to her as long as you both shall live?

I will

Star Inkbright said...

((Ez: Yeah. Skip all the actual marrying parts. *laughs*))

John said...

((Shut it Ez, you try being told you have to do this litteraly ten seconds before you do >:c))

Chione Asahina said...

I will

*is still nervous as hell but smiles nonetheless, turns bright red*

Star Inkbright said...

((Hunter: Random Minister Dude. :D

Ez: I know. :D))

John said...

((Also, him*))

Dragona Pine said...

*whispers to Hunter* Armour is very cool. My armour is made from interlocking plates of thick, ablative ceramic with kinetic padding for extra protection.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*smiles*
*tearing up slightly

Star Inkbright said...

((Star: Yeah, sorry - my characters aren't very nice . . . :(
Personally, I believe you're both doing fabulously, and you completed a stunning amount of planning in a short amount of time.
*hugs*

Hunter: You're left, Star, of course.
Ez: You're always right, Star.
Hunter: You're always LEFT, Star.
Awwwww she looks so confused isn't it SWEET, Ez? :D))

((Ez: @Blake: *shrugs* Fair enough.))

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

NOW I'm ready to wedding

Star Inkbright said...

Hunter: *whispers back* That does sound really cool . . .
I should get some armour.

John said...

((and now I shall be making a random ring-bearer...))

*A small boy walks up the aisle with two rings on a pillow, one of ice and diamond, the other of swirling shadow. He holds them up to Blake and Chione*

*Takes the shadowy ring*

With this ring I thee wed, and all my worldly goods I thee endow. In sickness and in health, in poverty or in wealth, 'til death do us part.

Star Inkbright said...

((Ez: Hey Jubi! :)))

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

Hello Jubilance. :D

I love weddings, they're so happy. :D

John said...

The Minister guy again ((I'm staring to get attached ti this guy, he seems cool)): I now pronounce you, husband and wife. You may kiss the bride.

*Smiles and takes Chio in his arms*

*Leans in closely and kisses her like he never has before*

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

*sobs* they grow up so fast, don't they?

Dragona Pine said...

*shrugs* This is the first wedding I've ever been to.

Mary Contrary said...

:) :) :) :) :)

*smiles*
*looks away from the kissing politely*
*claps and throws confetti over them*

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

I've delivered packages to a lot of weddings. :-)

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

Yay!

Star Inkbright said...

((Star: *authorises admin controls*
*removes parenthesis conversations*
*which I can do, coz I'm Star*))

Ez: *this is quite a good wedding, actually*
*looks at Hunter*
*he looks back, raising an eyebrow*
*she gives him a generally positive face and he nods*
*he thinks it's a good wedding too, that means*

Star Inkbright said...

Hunter: @Sophia: They're better than funerals. *shrugs*

Snow said...

Hi. Ish.

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

That's so sweet.. *Wipes eyes*

Star Inkbright said...

((Hunter: Okay.
I've stopped being nice to Star.
Ez: So I win?
Hunter: Yeah, sure.
But I win overall.
*blows up admin controls*))

Star Inkbright said...

Ez: @Jubi: It is, isn't it? *smiles*

Dragona Pine said...

*rubs forehead*

Personally, I don't see the point in a funeral. A person is dead. It doesn't matter whether they're buried or thrown out of the bloody airlock.

John said...

*Picks up Chio and shouts to everybody in the audience*

We will now be making our way to the hall for the after party! In order to save time...

*The chairs (Which btw are made of shadows) all sink into the earth and pop up inside the hall along with Blake and Chio*

...We will be doing that.

Noelle said...

*She claps politely for the couple*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

((And my brother starts playing all of me. This is a good setting in my house))

*leans back*
*hands giant packets of glittery confetti to the others*
*ones each*

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

*Applauds*

*Heads to the after-party, carrying a large box that he didn't seem to have before*

Chione Asahina said...

*looks outside as the sun sets*
I love you...
*looks up at him*

Dragona Pine said...

*goes to the hall*

Star Inkbright said...

Hunter: THANK you.
*nods*
Funerals are just pointless unnecessarily painful events for the living and just pointless events for the dead, because they're DEAD, and they're not even there so they don't even CARE, so why do people pretend that funerals are for the dead?
There would be more point in making a funeral for a table.

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

CAKE TIME!

John said...

I love you to Chione

*kisses her again*

O.O
*blinks and looks around the hall*
Wow.

(@Hunter: Why would there be MORE point in making a funeral for a table? Wouldn't they be equally pointless? :P)

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Chione Asahina said...

Silente you really didn't have to...

*Goes in the opposite direction and disappears*

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

Oh no....
I FORGOT A PRESENT D:

Star Inkbright said...

((Hunter: Because for all you know, tables could be alive and have feelings, and so could actually care about funerals, unlike dead people. Who aren't alive, because they're dead.

@Chi: . . . If you want. I'm not arranging them, though.))

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Yeah I did.
*smiles*
The beautiful bride and Blake.
*nods*

Chione Asahina said...

No no Jubi it's alright! we weren't asking for any it's fine.

Star Inkbright said...

Hunter: Bye, Adra . . . :(

Ez: *offers Chi Adra's present* From Adra. :) *smiles*

John said...

Yeah it's fine, we weren't expecting anything.

Snow said...

((Did I perhaps.... just miss the wedding?)

Chione Asahina said...

Oh, thank you *takes the present from Ez.*

((Hunter: @Taia: Why would a table have a funeral if it WAS dead?
That's my point.
And - of course it makes no sense. It makes no sense to give a table a funeral. It makes even LESS sense to give a dead person a funeral.

*he has a bit of a vendetta against funerals* *sometimes he has to attend ones for people he's killed and everyone's so upset and it makes him feel awful* *he hates it*))

Chione Asahina said...

I love popcorn. Thank you Hunter.
*hugs him and Ez*
Thank you Ez, that's a really good picture *shows it to Blake*

*smiles as Chi's face lights up*
I'm glad you like it.

It looks beautiful ^-^

*laughs and hugs her back*

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

((I ded to Chione and Blake's wedding. Congrats guys!
Bai!))

Mary Contrary said...

(Sorry, internetttttt)

Silente, your present choices! *grins* :):)

Ez too. :) ^^
And Hunter, ofc. Popcorn is important. *nods in general agreement* :)


(Jubi, exactly. Or if you put the table in, like, a woodchipper, maybe you could hold it a funeral then, in the case that tables ARE alive and have feelings and such. :P)

(Hunter, but why is there less sense in human funerals than table funerals? And where do pet funerals stand on that scale? D:)

Chione Asahina said...

Now I think it's time to start this after party.

*goes over to the CD player*
But first, a slow dance with my new Husband <3
*plays 'marry you' by Bruno mars*
(which is our song)

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*passes Blake's present to him*
I got you something too.

Dragona Pine said...

*draws pistol*


*arm lights up with holographic computer*

*a small blue holographic snowflake lights up on the side of the weapon*

*puts it on the pile of presents*


To make up for destroying part of your home. I pay my debts. Well in this case I paid my debts along with like five times as much on top.

If you shoot someone it emits a cryo field which means it has a chance to freeze the person who you shot. Cause enough damage to them and they'll simply shatter. If they're wearing armour it'll weaken it and slow them down. Quite useful for me. More useful for you, Chione, concerning your snow.

Chione Asahina said...

Omg this is very very useful Sophia!

Thank you. *hugs her*

*smiles and walks over to Blake*

Star Inkbright said...

((Star: Fours, Jubi! :())

((Hunter: Funerals for living tables makes more sense than funerals for dead humans. Funerals for living humans (and living pets) makes sense, but not much, because like I say they just upset people.))

John said...

*Takes Chio's hand in his and puts his other on her waist*

*slowly spins around the dance floor with her*

Chione Asahina said...

*leans in close to him, grinning like an idiot*

You look amazing in that suit by the way :)

*goes and sits next to Hunter and Ez*

((Should I... come and apologize for being so late? Or should I just stroll in and watch them creepily?))

Star Inkbright said...

Hunter and Ez: *look at each other* *Hunter raises his eyebrow* *Ez shakes her head vehemently*

Ez: Hi, Sophia. :)

Star Inkbright said...

Hunter: @Delivery guy: Yeah . . . I know.
*nods*

((Ez: Whatever you want, Snow. :)))

Snow said...

((Casually walking in it is))

*pokes head in the door(?) Before slowly walking over and sitting near h0Hunter, Ez and Sophia* hi

Dragona Pine said...

Hello Ez. I never asked - is your name short for anything?

Chione Asahina said...

((Snow we don't mind that you were late, the ceremony is the boring part anyway))

Till death do we part huh?
That's a very long time for us sorcerers.
*smiles and holds him closer*

I know how to do the sugar plum fairy dance! :D

*Twirls around on tiptoes*

*Piqué turns*

*Does pretty arm movements*

*Realizes he's acting like an idiot and no one cares*

*The former is nothing new, but the latter is somewhat bothersome*

*He leaves a package on the pile of gifts and disappears off to somewhere else with something else that needs delivering*

Mary Contrary said...

Aw! Bye, Jubi! *hugs*
(Your picture looks amazing, btw! :O)

(@Hunter: I'm confused. :P
When you say funerals for living tables/humans/pets, is that the funeral being held for those living who were close to a lost table/human/pet, or a funeral being held for a presumably dead table/human/pet, which is attended by the living, kind of?
Because if the dead is alive...
If the dead is alive, I guess you have a zombie. Which more than likely means zombieS. And I don't know how many funerals are even HELD during zombie apocalypses, generally.
I'd have thought people are too busy battling for their lives and survival for something pointless like ceremonious condolences for the living dead. Y'know?
(OK, not entirely where I expected that to go... xD)
But, like... If the nature of the funeral is remembrance, rather than just tradition and respect for the dead, then I suppose that there is point in it. Because reflection and even though sadness it's a time where you can get those feelings and grievances out of the way, maybe? idk. )

John said...

((Sorry for not posting a lot, homework and stuff...))

Yep it is, especially for us with relations to gods. I'd spend an eternity with you.

Chione Asahina said...

As would I *hugs him as the song stops*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

((@Taia excuse me! Not all loving dead are zombies! I resent that claim! Am I a zombie? No. Am I classed as a 'living dead' yes. Don't be prejudice against Vamps!))

Snow said...

Right... *clears throat and walks over to the couple* ah... sorry I'm so late. Had an incident in the Australian Sanctuary with a lot of water and some very important files... *shuffles feet a bit*

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

I'm almost home

Star Inkbright said...

Hunter: Hi, Snow. :)

Ez: @Sophia: Yes - it's short for Ezmeralda . . . Hunter started shortening it, and now I can't get rid of it.
*sighs*

((Hunter: Funerals just shouldn't involve dead people.
Which would take away the point of funerals, but funerals have no point, so . . .
And - yes, that would be pointless, but like I said, funerals are pointless.))

Chione Asahina said...

it's ok Snow *hugs her*

*goes to the CD player and plays Avicii - wake me up*

*spins onto the dance floor*

Dragona Pine said...

*starts rubbing head as she has a headache from the music*

Snow said...

*laughs slightly and sets a small, cylindrical present on the table before walking back over to Ez, Hunter and Sophia*

Snow said...

(Fun fact- Ezmarelda is the name of one of the tables in my Math and Science room at school. She's married to Frank, who is kept on the other side of the room, and they have a sun called Bob who sits next to Ezmarelda)

Mary Contrary said...

(I feel a bit weird taking about funerals while Chi and Blake are wedding-dancing, here. :P
..You guys look great together, btw. :3 )

(@Tempest: Apologies. *bows* I mean no prejudice. Are vampires always considered living dead? I'm not sure.
The vampires don't tend to lead to apocalypses, though, and I'm not sure why you'd want to hold a funeral for a vampire, because how would you catch him/her without being killed?
Generally speaking, zombies are dim, literally just animated corpses. I think that vampires have greater complexity. Depending on definition, it's a different kind of life beyond death.
I'm just making up words as I go along. Rationalizing. Complimenting. You know how it goes. :P Again, sorry about that. :))

Hey! Hey guys! I made it!

Mary Contrary said...

(*hugs Zaf*)

@Ez: *tilts head* Would you prefer Ezmeralda over Ez? I can try to stick to your preferred title, if you'd like. :)
(Unless I'm rushing or being all squee-y or whacky revision mode or something, in which case I can't control the names that happen out of me, really. :P)

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

((*nods at Taia* Sp you should be.))

*smiles and pulls some paper from her pocket*
*writes a quick note on it telling Chi she left*
*slips it under Blake's present on their table*
*gets up and silently leaves the building*

Chione Asahina said...

((Trip you're more than an hour late for the wedding. Blake was left on his own. I had Silente.))

((And I would like to say how profoundly sorry I am that my character missed your wedding, however, there was a situation.))

John said...

((What kind of "situation" are we talking about here?))

Chione Asahina said...

((It's alright trip, as long as you go say hi to Blake as you're meant to be his best man :3))

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

((A real life situation. With real life concequences.))

Mary Contrary said...

@Snow(I think): Awesome! Those are excellent names.
And it also gathers evidence suggesting that tables in fact ARE alive and have feelings. Which I'm beginning to grow quite interested in.
Do you know, have any of them ever attended, or been the receptor of, a funeral? And if so, for a living table, or a dead one?
It's important. :P

Snow said...

I think Jim, the table near Frank, went to a funeral once. I dont know if the table was dead or alive. Sorry
