I love German book fairs.
Every single one I've been to has been PACKED, and while that does tend to slow things down as you're trying to walk from one gigantic hall to the other, you really don't mind all that much. All these people crammed in around you are book-lovers, for god's sake. How annoyed can you actually be?
Over the weekend, I was at TWO German book fairs. The first one was in Cologne, on Friday evening, and I was up on stage with Rainer, the actor who does the German audiobooks, and Margarete, the translator. We've been doing this together for a few years now, so we're all quite comfortable with the process. The main difference between events in Germany and events everywhere else (apart from the need for a translator) is the emphasis put on the audio book. Rainer is as integral to the show as I am, and his readings make up half of our time on stage. The event in Cologne went wonderfully, and we had a really receptive audience, and I even spotted some familiar faces in the queue.
Once I'd finished signing, we went back to our hotel, where we had a very nice meal attended by the weirdest waiters I've ever encountered. One was tall, one was short, and they looked so alike that I started to suspect that they were the rejects from a batch of clones some mad professor had concocted in a dark and dingy lab. They were both wearing ill-fitting suits, both had the same type of glasses, and they both stood around and stared into space in the corners of the room while we were waiting to place our orders. So incredibly ODD.
Thankfully, we managed to escape the restaurant before they could kill us and harvest our organs to replace their own failing ones, and I got to my room and got into bed and put my head on the most deadly pillow the world has ever known. It was so big and so soft that when I put my head onto it, the whole thing folded up on either side and tried to suffocate me.
Convinced that the clone waiters were hovering outside my door, waiting for me to die, I slept without a pillow that night. I also slept sideways, because the double bed I'd been given was, in actual fact, two single beds pushed together, and I kept slipping down between them. Who knows what was waiting for me if I had slipped all the way? Scorpions? Tarantulas? Really lazy ninjas? Or maybe just a hole in the floor and a twisting slide that would deliver me to the mad professor's Experimentation Table of Doom?
I survived the night. Barely.
The next morning, we got a train to Frankfurt and then a plane to Leipzig. No attempts on my life were made during this time.
Leipzig Book Fair is half book festival and half comic convention. There are all these people dressed as Manga characters roaming around, chatting on their phones, browsing book shelves. Also, all of Germany had had a pretty bad winter, and there was piles of snow everywhere and it was pretty damn cold— and in the middle of it all you have these really cute German girls walking around in bizarre costumes that don't really cover a whole lot. They must have been FREEZING.
We did our first event, and although we only had a half an hour, it went very well. Such a huge crowd. The signing went on forever, and it was so cool seeing that many people wanting me to scrawl my signature over whatever they had.
The moment we were finished there we got in a car and drove to a graveyard. Because that's what you do once night falls, obviously.
We went to a huge sarcophagus-type place and we yapped in front of 200 people, doing our best to ignore the deep hole behind us with the old coffin. So just an average Saturday night, then...
Once that was done with, we went to dinner with a bunch of other people, including American author Maggie Stiefvater, and I sat at a big table with a bunch of people speaking German all around me. Best night EVER! Well, not quite. But Maggie is a funny lady.
Then I got back to my hotel. This time, my bed was a proper double bed, but the waiters had obviously followed me from Cologne because those damn pillows tried to drown my head again.
Sunday was my last day there. It was also Saint Patrick's Day.
(That's St PADDY'S Day, in its shortened version. Not St PATTY'S Day, as some Americans insist on calling it...)
I had an interview to do in the morning, and then I had two hours off before my event, so I went wandering through the halls. It was all so incredibly strange, and wonderfully so. It made me wish that Irish book festivals were like this. Imagine if The Mountains to the Sea festival had hundreds of teenagers walking around dressed as characters from comics and books. That would ROCK.
We did our event, signed for an enormous amount of people, and then I was whisked off to the airport to catch my first flight. I arrived back to my front door a little under eight hours later, tired but happy to be home, and looking forward to spending a night with my head on a pillow that doesn't try to kill me.

«Oldest ‹Older 4401 – 4600 of 4921 Newer› Newest»I'm sorry Death, I don't know what to say :( I wish I could help you.
I wish I could help me too...
It just... Wasn't meant to be...
I will be leaving now... I have homework. Bye.
Bye Death
Anyone on? Anyone?
I am now... I just finished all my homework...
Why? I am always the one being yelled at, being picked on, being insulted. Why am I not like the others? Why do I have to suffer? All I try to do is make peoples' lives easier and better, sticking up for anyone even though they will go strait back to insulting me? To yelling and snickering?
Am I that invisible that people don't see that I am in pain? That I too, have feelings? I am not a vampire as many tend to claim. I am as human as anyone else here. I know how hard life is, how strong people are at living an easy life.
I am not going to lie, I am weak. Physically, psychologically and mentally. I do not have any great strengths whatsoever. I stand up for those who deserve it, who can not fight for themselves. I know what it is like to be all alone. No one there for you when you need it most. Someone to talk to and to share your fears with.
That is where you, the Bloglandians, come in.
You have talked me out of... You know... So many times, I always seem to bring the atmosphere down on here. I don't know how you put up with me, but I am forever thankful. I know that you will always be there for me, always have something to cheer me up, always have a way to make me forget about my miserable life.
I don't know where it all went wrong
Where all of this hostility came from
My life is like a waterfall. A long time ago, sharp rocks fell down a cliff. After a while, rain started to fall, creating a small stream to fall on the rocks. That stream turned into a river and the rocks began to be worn away. Now they are flat, pieces breaking them and being turned into sand. I am like the rocks, my life is the water.
My life is also like magnets. I shall sit for hours playing with them, manipulating them so the same poles touch. It goes against all the magnets' properties but I force it. So, I guess it is also similar because of the way that people force me into what I have become because of shear force of will and determination.
Who would be that Hell bent on ruining my life? I already have names: Jonah, Gianni, Josh,Tom, Xavier... But why spend that much effort on me? A nobody? It is touching in a sick kind of way that people will think about me, even if it is to plan how they will make me commit suicide. I guess I should be happy that they are trying to kill me via insults and mental abuse.
Never think that you are not good enough for any one; always ask your self if they are good enough for you.
“Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.”
― Winston Churchill
“Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that
something else is more important than fear.”
― Meg Cabot

“Courage isn't having the strength to go on - it is going on when you don't have strength.”
― Napoleon Bonaparte
“One's dignity may be assaulted, vandalized and cruelly mocked, but it can never be taken away unless it is surrendered.”
― Michael J. Fox
“it takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeded.”

“I know what I want, I have a goal, an opinion, I have a religion and love. Let me be myself and then I am satisfied. I know that I’m a woman, a woman with inward strength and plenty of courage.”

Ugh boooooooored
Stuck in class
I don't know what I'm doing.
I would use a quote i said but uhm yeah my OC is in LSODM so i have no idea what she says or whom she tries to kill preferably i hope i kill Sanguine or Sult
I find it sad i hate Sult even though he's working for Grand Mage Bisahalani and as an Elder I should at least TRY to like him but I honestly cant.
*shrugs*
So long as my interaction with that......thing is minimal...though Adra.... Ahhh
And for the war question Derek said 90yrs ago but do the math its 1923 so he basically either wanted US to do the math or he couldnt do the math but im thinking he couldnt do the math.....
Ah....joyous I HATE the Honors teacher for next year how the hell does she expect us to write 8 sentences on a book...ASSI Answer Support Support Inference
Kill me now this summer is gonna suck but least I read Midsummer's Night Dream so as my current teacher gave us the modern translated version I may survive
* skips off into the hall*
Onto new class goodbye

Hi!
If you're still here. :P
TAIA!!!!!! *supermegatacklehugsofdoom*
Hi.
*is supermegatacklehugofdoom-ed*
How are you doing?
I'M GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD
May be here but distant
Hi, Dragona! Hi Zaf!
How are you both?
Good to hear, Jubi! :)
Good lol
DRAGONA!!!! ZAF!!!! *supermgeatacklehugsofdoom*
hi.
Hey Taia! I'm fine, you?
Hey Jubi! How are you?
Hey Zaf! How are you?
I'M GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD
I'm okay, thanks Dragona. Doing English homework, as if I don't know how to place an apostrophe. :P
msd.... :-/
Hey, I've just posted a story on my blog - it isn't very long but it's new and it's the first part, so I'd appriciate it if some of you could have a look. You don't have to read any of my other stories, though they are connected. I'd just appriciate some feedback as I've tried to make my writing style a bit more formal to suit this character.
If anyone is interested, the link to my blog is:
dragonapine.blogspot.co.uk
Okay, Jubi. :/
@Dragona: I'll take a look when I've got a little more time and/or energy. I've been meaning to catch up with some of your other stories, anyway. :)
Taia, what parts did you read?
Because now there's uh... nine.
LOL!
Maybe a lot more time then.
I don't remember which I've read. I'll just re-read them all, I guess. Remember what happened, and such, I guess. :P
'I guess.'? 'I guess'?
I guess a lot, apparently. :P
Yeah. I'm writing some kind of spin-off stories at the moment, though they all connect. I'm writing one about a detective (which I have just posted), a story about the SOS and yeah.
*nods* Right. Sounds good.
Like I said, I'll take a look when I'm less busy 'n' stuff. Blame school, not me. :P
Don't worry. ^^
I just heard my headphones were found at the carnival... thank Golden God. *sighs in relief*
I hope I'll get them back soon, now.
How's everyone today?
Hello? Super distant.
Yay for them not being stolen! [tacklehugs Mara]
Hello.
Hiya Mara!
Awesome news! :)
I'm okay, thanks. How're you doing?
Hey Fabi! Hiya, Star!
How are ye both?
Hello Star, Hello Taia. :-)
I'm panicking! XD
Also I still don't like coffee! But I may have had some anyway, diluted with a lot of milk, because I woke up like a zombieslugsloththing.
If I know it's right, but it's going to hurt people, should I say? It'd be worse if I didn't and _____ found out, but if she didn't ... Not likely. It sounds like I should do something about it, huh...
My friend is nuts :3
THANK YOU WATTPAD FOR GIVING ME HER XD
Hey Star, Fabi and Taia! *hugs*
Same old, same old. :P Emailing and stuffs.
Ew, coffee :P I love sugary tea. Like seriously. I basically dump a whole bag of Súcra into my tea xD
Are you okay, Fabigail? *hugs*
I don't know if I like coffee or not. IT's been years since I tried it. :P
I don't usually put sugar in tea. Occasionally, when I've made it so badly that even I can't bear to drink it, I'll throw sugar in there. It doesn't generally help, though. :P
Hm, sounds tricky, Fabi.
I guess just do what feels most right...
Is there something that you could do that's, like, sensitive to both people's needs/feelings? :/
I told the inchargey-person.... I think I sounded annoying though....
[hugs Mara back{
Hello.
Just in case anyone didn't read up there, I've just posted a new story on my blog. It's short-ish, so it won't take long to read... I just would like some feedback because it's a new series and I've altered my writing style a little to make it more formal for this particular character. I'd appriciate it a lot.
If anyone is interested, the link to my blog is:

Hello, Dragona.
I have to go in less than ten minutes, so I don't really have time to analyze it now, sorry. I'll read it later if I don't forget.
I'm okay-ish, you?
Washing up brb.
Msd.
*nods*
If I were in your situation, Fabi, I think I'd probably just point it out to somebody else, and let them handle it. Mainly because I lack the responsibility and assertion to actually handle things myself. :/
I'm not sure whether that can even help you at all, though. I hope you get it sorted out okay, at least. ^^
Yeah, I did. I think I was kinda annoying about it, but I pointed it out to someone. [nods] I could technically handle it myself, but I don't want to hurt people's feelings...
Thanks. [hugs]
Gtg, bye.
HEllo?
*hugs back*
Bye, Fabi.
Hi again, Jubi~
Jubi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've gotta go.
May or may not return soon.
Bye, all~
Bye Taia!
Mmh-hmm. Yeah, doing so well at being here today. :P
I was doin hoomwork, then reading The Host . . . The book is better than the film. :)

I love typing, I decided.

Holy mother of God, I almost fell off my swing. O.O Gave me a heart attack.
Hey Luci :)
Oh shoot. I knew that! I actually wrote "b-day" in my calendar.
I've never heard the song Gangnam style (or whatever it is). I'm all proud.
Hello, how is Blogland been reading MC today and they are great!
Yeah sure, I'll contribute. What do I do?
Okay, I'm officially posting the story now................

Hey Melica! Is Tesla on I need to talk to her? If anyone knows they will get the second Brad Sticker!
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
SILENCE DAY IS TOMORROW!!!!:D:D:D
HI everyone who arrived, fours Jubi!
Oh dear, I was colouring so carefully but then my hand went a tad out of control on the A in LeStare because the chorus to DWTS arrived through my headphones and I started nodding my head and mouthing the lyrics . . . D:
And also, Violence Fetish came right after DWTS, seeing as it's next on the list in the album, uh duh, and I though "Dragona would agree with this song . . ."
I was trying to expain to my friend today why Disturbed were awesome. She didn't get it. At all. Not one aspect. :/
And I've almost done Kes's card! BEST CARD I'VE EVER MADE. SO HAPPY.
But the words NEED a black background. They're so bright. It would just look so much better. But the drawing I drew on it wouldn't look great against one . . . CONUNDRUM. D:
Yeah, sorry for not being here. D:
Hope you can join the MC, Brad. :)
I'll read your story when I'm not doing anything, Dragona.
How is everyone?
STAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *supermegatacklehugsofdoooom*
hi.
Thanks Star! *Rewards her with a Brad sticker* Hopefully I will and I might include Star in 1 of my stories if I'm aloud I don't really care if I'm not aloud! But thats only if I get into MC!
Bobbin<3
Bobbin may be my OTP. Or at least one of them.
Star, why would I agree to the song? ^^
I hate the wind. It has annoyed me for the last couple of days and Im pretty sure its only REALLY windy when I decide to go outside.
I just thought I woulde share that :)
Wbd Im doing french hw...
I actually like the wind. Especially during summer.
Cheese.

Yes, hello!
Hey Jubi! How are you?
Please, if any of you have time, could you read my story?
dragonapine.blogspot.co.uk
You don't have to read ANY other one of my stories if you don't want, and it's a short part so it won't take long to read. It's even part of a new series, so you won't have to catch up on any to understand it.
I'd appriciate some feedback.
*giggles*
Window cleaner... oh, Liamykins, you adorable little child..
Hey Aisling! How are you?
Dragona I'll read your story after dinner.
With I must disappear to eat now. Brb
*which
Hi Mara, Ais!
Ah, see you, Aisling!
Bye Aisling, then!
Also, if anyone reads it I would appriciate a comment. *innocent face*
I think I'm going to leave for a while. Maybe forever. I dont know. Some people here just make me feel like I don't belong here, and I feel as though I'm just a hindrance to you all...
Sorry.
Bye.
Change, change your life,
Take it all...<3
Luci... please don't...
This is partly my fault... I'm so sorry :( *hugs Luci*
We love you, okay? You're my Blogsister. Never think that you aren't welcome. *hugs again*
NOOOO! *hugs luce* your not a hindrance your amazing :D
Back
No Luci don't go. Please don't go.
[hugs Lucy]
See you...
I hope it isn't forever. And you've always been one of the people here who's been most 'Bloglandian-y' (no offense to anyone else), and thank you for being here when you have been. [hugs again]
Aisling, can you read my story now? ^^
Luci, if you quit i quit.
Simples
Mara I have an AMAZING idea but i need your help...
You in?
Luci, don't leave.
I enjoy looking at my emails in the morning to see if you've replied. I love you, Luci. Because we're family. Sisters. And if you leave forever, then I'm going, too.
Because you can't be sisters if there's only one.
Mara! Mara" i HAVE AN IDEA!
WHATS YOUR EMAIL? ILL EMAIL YOU IT!
Would somebody else like to take the dedication? I appear to be...unable to do it right now. Just include Lucy, because she deserves it.
Gtg...bye [hugs]
Bye Fabi!
Brave, I'm not really in the mood right now. Maybe later.
Hi. btw...
Em, Mara, it actually has something to do with keeping Luci on the blog...
Fabi, do you mind if I take deds?
Go ahead, Mara. [nods]
[is really not here now]
Thanks. *hugs*
Distant.
Ughgsuiql Gtg
Bye Brave!
Sorry for poofing had to have a shower.
Luciana, whether you actually see this or not, if you're sure leaving is what is best for you, and you alone, then just take care of yourself. You'll always be wonderful. Try not to forget that too often.
*hugs*
Stay beautiful.
(And, I suppose as Gerard Way says, Keep it ugly.)
To the rest of you, Hello.
Aisling, can you read my story?
Dragona that's a great story :)
Is there going to be more after it?
I like reading stories with violence in them. Stories that are completely nom-violent are boring for me. *nods*
Because I thought you would agree with "bring the violence" and that it's signifiant to the life, Dragona. :)
@Mushroom: *blank stare*
*shocke silence*
*more shocked silence*
*more shocked silence*
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! D:
But . . . you can't . . . LEAVE. You've . . . you've been here so long . . . You're . . . You're just part of Blogland's structure. YOU CAN'T *insert swear word of choice here* LEAVE! You can't! Why would we not want you around? If we don't, we'll - *stops self from swearing* - say so! When a person is not liked in Blogland, it gets known. Oh yes. Arguments or at least whispered email discussions take place. A Blogland without you is . . .
Hey, my irl friend I've known since Year Five just moved schools. Now she's gone, it's not like one person's disappeared, it's like most of my friends have. Everything is just so empty and peopleless. It's like I'm missing an arm.
If you went, it would be like that, but worse because . . .
My and my irl friends jus don't connect like we do on here. I don't really understand my friends in the same way. And I can't talk to them as easily.
Right, that's one side of my arguemnt. The second is . . .
You're such a jepic person! *frowns*
You're utterly loyal to your friends, not like objective little me . . . You care about us so much, and when we're feeling down you can cheer us up so well. You're cheerful as well, y'know? I get told I'm a bright spark - uh, what? I'm usually all thoughtful and depressing, or distant. :P
And you're a jepic person also patially in the same way that Hunter is. Because the way he just IS is jepic. *nods*
That was a good way of describing how some people just ARE. Well, it wasn't, but it was compared to my other ways. I should use that again.
You're one of those people who you just marvel at. *nods*
I'm not going to start mention other Bloglandin examples, because anyone I don't mention'll feel I dislike them, but yeah.
You also remind me of Hunter in a way. A good way. Because he's jepic. *nods*
*realiss* Oh, and not that I think you're insane.
Or like killing people.
Or . . . Oh, damn, making a mess of this.
In a GOOOOOOOOOOD way. *scowls*
Dammit. THIS WHOLE THING WENT FROM BAD TO WORSE TO TERRIBLE. D:
You may say everything reminds me of Hunter, but few irl people do. Well, like none.
Oh, I give up on this whole arguement. It's just terrible. D:
TBC.
And my third arguement is . . . Well, I've forgotten t, but I know it was brilliant, so let's just act like I said something fabulous, yeah?
Sorry for being so cheerful. I'm blaming it on the fact I'd just stopped crying when I'm started writing this.
Oh, there's my third arguement! *cheers*
WELCOME BACK, THIRD ARGUEMENT! WE SAVED SUPPER FOR YOU! IT'S DISGUSTING! BUT IT'S ALL WE HAD, SO TOUGH!
How are you a hidrance to us all? When you have a go at people like Dragona you're just being loyal to your friends. Loyalty is one of the best qualities ever, and I don't have it. Nobody can condemn you for doing that. Cheer you and save supper, more like.
Why did I use the word 'supper,' anyway? I nver use it irl. *muses*
And when you have a go at people like . . . Um . . . A few peope I could mention but won't, you're just saying what the rest of us are thinking and a) are too cowardly to say or b) are saying along with you.
Plus, you're so good at helping people out.
I wouldn't call that a hindrance, I would call that a . . . *reads through dictionary* HANDICAPP!
*rads second definition* Whaaaaaat, that can mean hindrance too? D:
WHY IS THE WORDLD SO STUPID??????
Haha, see what I did there? XD
Noooooo, should not be doing this speech in this kind of mood. D:
So sorry.
But yeah. You're the OPPOSITE of a hindrance! You're a ecnardnih! AND ECNARDNIH. *nods*
You're awesome. Don't you forget it.
So sorry for being in such a cheerful mood. D:
Such bad timing, brain. *shake head*
I do mean everything I said. Well, I was lying about the dictionary part. But I mean everything else. *nods*
And NOW I feel serious.
Oh my gosh, I hate my head so much.
Yay you read it!!!
*is alllllll happy*
Yes, there's going to be more after it. The time of 1891 is very flexible and there were lots of things happening.
Sorry I just realised that I was half way through it when I had to go t have a shower. I thought there was something wrong with my memory that I could only remember the start of it.
I'll just finish it now.
Star, well I can be a bit violent from time to time.
Like the time on Call of Duty, I shot my friend in the face with a shotgun and his brains came out and there was a blood explosion and he fell into a swimming pool.
I dedicate this page to Luciana Clover Scáth, or whatever name she has at the given time.
I remember when I came to Blogland, I was '12 and impressionable', to quote Skulduggery. Not that I'm not 12 now, but anyway. Luci was one of the first people I Blogspoke to, and I distinctly remember thinking, 'I want to be like her.'
Luciana was kind, sweet, funny, caring - everything I wanted to be, and more. And she still is.
When we email, I usually end up laughing hysterically; my mother thinks I'm having a heart attack. We usually talk about Skittles/Steak/1D cutouts/Ships. She's like my older sister. I love her for that. She's had her fair share of bad things; we usually email each other compliments and reassure each other. When I fall, she's always there for me. And, hopefully I can say vice versa.
Sometimes we've hurt each other without meaning to. But that's what makes us closer. Our bond gets stronger. Don't they say that the more you fight, the closer you are? Yeah.
What I'm trying to say is; Luciana is perfection. Whether she agrees or disagrees, she is. Everyone on the blog knows it and agrees. And if they don't, you know what? That's cool too. Because the most amazing people, they're the ones who have haters. She is beautiful, amazing, extraordinary, and will I say phenomiNiall?
This speech isn't good, but I hope I got my message across.
Luciana Clover Scáth, you are perfect .
If you leave, so do I.
Dragona that's brilliant. And it's also good to know that there's nothing wrong with my memory. Except that I couldn't remember that I hadn't read it.
*hadn't read the end of it.
Thanks Aisling. I appriciate the feedback a lot. :)
Great ded Mara.
I have to go now. Night guys!
Also, please no one leave. You're all awesome and it's been really fun to talk to you all.
If anyone else would mind reading my story, the link to my blog is:
dragonapine.blogspot.co.uk
Also, if anyone does read my latest story I would appriciate a comment from you so I can get all the feedback from it together and see if there's anything I can improve on. It's a lot easier to read them all in one go rather than searching the blog for them.
Night!
. . . I preferred feeling hyper . . . -_-
I'm just sad now.
Please don't go. You mean such a lot to such a lot of people. If you can translate it from insane Starian, I said everything I wanted tosay up there. You're a central figure to Blogland. Never feel you're not wanted here, because as long as we guys are here also, we're loved and wanted. Don't let abstract suspicion drive you out. Punch him in the face, grab the steering wheel and spin the car back around.
Hii....
Jubi poofed...
and she may poof again...
just saying.
Bye Dragona
Hi Jubi
. . . Mara . . . *hugs*
That speech was a thousanth of how perfect you and Mushroom are, which means it's 500% perfect. :)
You put anything I could ever write, when I'm feeling serious, in the shade.
And now I feel so terrible for being emotional earlier. D:
There is no black and white. Only grey. And I'm surrounded by masses of it, all pushing at me.
AIS!!!!!!!! *supermegatacklehugsofdoom*
hi.
*is supermegatacklehugofdoomed*
Is that how I'm supposed to say it
Star, Mara: I couldn't agree more.
Because Luciana is wonderful and beautiful and just so GOOD.
And I'd hate to see her leave. Of course, if Luciana could stay, it would be brilliant, because she means so much to myself and to everybody here, and everything Star and Mara have said that I could never shove into words, but it's because of that that I say if Luciana truly believes that leaving will do /her/ best, then I personally, can't have myself deny her that option.
I'm going to go hate my moral senses, now...
*?
WHAT?!?!?!? LUCI'S LEAVING?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
I just don't want her to feel she's unwanted here. *shrugs*
But I ge what you mean.
*hugs everyone* I love you all so much. Don't ever forget that. :)
