Under Pressure... Moi?

Glancing back at old Blog entries, I happened to notice that on December 23rd of 2012 I had 13,320 words of LSODM written. This was a good thing to notice. It means that, with 18,504 words of Book 9 already spewed forth onto the page/screen, I am well ahead of where I was last year — and I finished LSODM in PLENTY of time, did I not?

Well, actually, no, I didn't. It was pretty much down to the wire, as they say. I couldn't afford to make ANY mistakes with LSODM, because I had no time to do anything resembling a significant rewrite. But at least I know it can be done. At least I know I can do it. Now all I have to do is hope I DO do it.

Pressure pressure pressure... It's everywhere. I don't actually mind pressure. It's a handy tool to make you sit down and write, after all. And I have no one to blame for these onrushing deadlines but me, because I'm the one who agreed to them in the first place. I'm the one who said "Hey, let's collect all the short stories, and I'll write a few more brand new ones, and we can publish in the summer before the final book!" And what a wonderful idea that was. What a magical, wonderful idea, to schedule the writing of short stories at the same time as I've scheduled the writing of a book. How clever that was.

I had wanted to include ten new stories in the collection. I STILL want to do ten — but the fact is, I might not be able to. I may only be able to do five. I want to tell a tale of the Dead Men during the war. I want to tell the tale of Billy-Ray Sanguine and what he did when he was recovering from the sword-wound that Valkyrie inflicted on him in The Faceless Ones. I want to show you how Val met Caelan for the first time. But most of all, I want to go back to Skulduggery and Valkyrie, back before the screaming and the killing and the darkness. I want to see them having fun again, before the death and the destruction and the heartache and the loss. The collection will be out mere months before the final book, after all... I want you to enter into Book 9, fully aware of how good it used to be between them.

And then I want to shatter what remains of your souls.

@Mara: I NEVER stop talking about myself. And when I do, I ramble off and bring the subject back to myself and my life. XD
Depression actually does kill.
*hugs* You don't have to shut up to me. Well . . . unless there's a situation like, a man's pointing a gun at us . . . well, two men, one gun for each of us, and if either or us speaks, they'll shoot. If we're ever in that situation, no offense, but I REALLY want you to shut up, unless what you say is a code to set off an explosive device that will harm them so we can get away. Or just harm them and leave us not dead.
. . . But anyway. Generally, I don't mind if you don't shut up. And if I ever betray you, either you're misreading the situation, or I'm not me any more. In which case . . . that sucks. Please try to bring me back?
And . . . :( Your best friend probably doesn't deserve you. I wish I could say that with more certainty, but I don't know her, so I'm unwilling to judge. But just judging from those sentences, she doesn't deserve you. *hugs*

*almost crying* :(

Sometimes, stuff sucks. :( Life is like a river, right? And sometimes, it drowns us. All we can do is just keep swimming, just keep swimming . . . *sings*
DAMMIT I INTENDED THIS PARAGRAPH TO BE SERIOUS.
*hugs*

Noelle said...

Oh Mara...

Don't scare yourself, if you are. Deaths... Unfortunately, so happen. Especially at this day and age. Girls in particular are told by society that they must be and look a certain way, and if they don't, then they are disgraced. Part of that is saying "fuck you" and rising above it.
I don't know why that girl was anorexic, but it isn't healthy.. As for being depressed, girl, I am too, and I can be your shoulder if you need it

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

I dedicate this page to happiness and rainbows and all that stuff.
And maybe the fact that one day I might actually be good at writing dedications for once

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

Bye Exeenera!

Exeenera Dawn said...

Really sorry!! I forgot.....
Gotta go anyway....
IM SO SORRY.....

Exeenera Dawn said...

Oh, yeah I'm Irish.... But still an honour....

Noelle said...

*raises glass* hear hear

Maralie Lily Charm said...

do you ever feel like you're the friend everyone secretly hates?

that's me. constantly. and then i get nervous and jittery around them. and then they get pissed off at me.

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

*grins* An honor to meet someone from a Cradle of Magic

Star Inkbright said...

@Exeenera: :( Fours!

@Mara: But -
She may have been beautiful inside, but outer beauty doesn't count, really. :) It's like . . .

"The trouble was that coal-silk wasn't as warm as proper fur, no matter how much it was padded out with hollow coal-silk fibres. Some of the children looked like walking puffballs, they were so bulky, but their gear had been made in factories and laboratories far away from the cold, and it couldn't really cope. Lyra's furs looked ragged and they stank, but they kept the warmth in."
It isn't how warm something LOOKS. It's how warm something IS, no matter how unattractive it may be.
In real life, you can be a coal-silk coat that is barely thicker than a T-shirt and still be the most warm coat in the world, because beautiful people can be people who have little of what society thinks is outer beauty or loads of it, so the metaphor has holes in, but you get what I mean. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

I'VE HAD THAT PARAGRAPH STUCK IN MY HEAD ALL WEEK, BTW. THE ONE ABOUT COATS. WHENEVER I THINK OF COATS AND WARMTH, I THINK OF IT.

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

*hugs Mara* I don't hate you. :) Believe me or don't, but yeah . . .

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

Er, I have before Mara... But then I revert to my studies... I remind myself that in three years, even if I wanted to, I won't see them ever again.

Star Inkbright said...

His Dark Materials is just a book series that sticks with you. You read it once or twice, and then goodness knows how many years later, you still remember things at odd moments, like the coats, and the boatman speaking when they're about to go into the Land of the Dead.

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

*hugs Adra, because she's really awesome*

Great ded, Jubi! :P

#ChaseForBookNine

Maralie Lily Charm said...

Idk.
Sorry, I'm probably wasting your time.
I just feel worthless and horrible and crappy today.
I'm going to go now.

Bye *hugs*

Maralie Lily Charm said...

I've read His Dark Materials.

Well I was forced to. I read Northern Lights.

I didn't like it tbh

sorry

Bye

Star Inkbright said...

You're not wasting our time at all, Mara. :) Fours. Hope you feel better soon . . .

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

Mara, if you're a waste of time, then the government shut down was a good idea.

That wasn't literal.

But no, we don't mind. We're your friends. It's our job-no-honor to help you up yo. *cuddles*

Star Inkbright said...

@Mara: *laughs*

That's fine. :) I didn't think it was the best series ever, at the time. I want to read it again, now I'm older, because I think I'll get more from it.

Fours. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

@Adra: Trueness. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

I think I'll go to sleep now . . . school tomorrow, and stuff. -_-

Fours . . . *waves* Sorry.

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

((Lol in reading not participating unleas you want me to))

The Grave of a Coward said...

(I cannot stay, but I just wish to hop on to say that I am VERY excited for this short story collection, in a way that I haven't been excited in a while. I can't wait! I'm particularly looking forward to the Dead Men one and the Billy-Ray Sanguine one. And I'm still not giving up hope on one starring good ol' Mr. Bliss!)

Noelle said...

((I'm indifferent..

I just want to point out- that if anyone new comes in, don't be afraid to speak... Zaf and I are only RPing because we think we're alone, and we enjoy it.

So yeah. If you wanna join in, feel free. If you wanna talk, that's cool as well..

Sorry, I've been really paranoid ever since what Sparky said a while back...))

The Grave of a Coward said...

(What did Sparky say?)

Noelle said...

((Hi Anni! And, she just pointed out that we go through lots of posts... And it was almost like we didn't have lives and such... So since then, I've been really paranoid))

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

((Okay I guess...

*comea down with Ravel* Hi Adra

Noelle said...

Hi Zaf

The Grave of a Coward said...

(Ah. I see.)

Noelle said...

((Yeah... *hugs anyway* Hi!))

Noelle said...

((DID YOU GET THE DRAWINGS???
I EMAILED THEM TO YOU))

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

How is the fox?

Ravel: what does the fox say? ((Im sorry i had to)$

Emerald Melody said...

hey biatches.

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

Hi Em

Noelle said...

((Hey))


He... He won't be able to walk in the way he's supposed to. For probably the rest of his life. His legs were shattered, like a mirror. We're lucky he can still walk. Poor thing must be in pain...

which reminds me, i'll have to make a new symbol for that... *takes out her bag*

The Grave of a Coward said...

(I'm sorry, I didn't get the pictures. Did you try sending them as a Reply to my previous email to you?
It might well be something wrong on my end.)

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

Poor little guy...can I try healing him?

Ravel: nothing that small and innocent deserves pain like that

The Grave of a Coward said...

(Also, one of my pals ships Osmosis, and loves musicals, so I made her an Osmosis spoof of one of the songs from Bonnie and Clyde. Then she got all upitty that I didn't post in on here, so here it is:

Oscar: Well who would have thought that a huntress from New England
Would have had the balls to bust me out with my own .45?

Precocious: And who would have thought a supervillain from the UK
Would outsmart the smartest lawmen and walk outta there alive?

Oscar: My name is gonna make the hist’ry books.
Too bad I won’t be here.

I may have started out a smalltime crook.
In a year or two I’ll be as known as Blogland’s Lex Luthor!

Thanks to you, Precocious babe, I can make plans again.
I’ve got lots of reasons to keep livin’.

It’s true that love can set you free,
And this world will remember me.

Precocious: You said you’d go straight. Oscar, I wanna be a hero.
I can’t name a hero who’s doin’ robberies on the side.

I know in my heart, babe, that Hollywood is callin’.
How can I be in the spotlight if we always have to hide?

Oscar: We need some dough to get to the hall of fame. One or two jobs should do.
Precocious: But after that we will be done for good.

Oscar: Babe, when Hollywood gets hold of you, they’ll be saying, “Clara who?”
Paramount, RKO, every studio, will be fighting over Doctor Precocious.

So many offers to discuss.
Yes this world will remember us!

No need to rush! Everybody gets our autographs.
“Hell of a Ride!” will be the words on our epitaphs.

Both: Two living legends, that’s what we will be.
And that’s okay with me!

Every place that we go, folks will turn their heads.
They’ll be hollerin’ from Dodge to Denver.

We are the pair that they’ll discuss.
Yes this world will remember us.

We are makin’ damn sure that we leave our mark.
You don’t leave your mark by digging ditches.

No wonder we’re who they’ll discuss.
Yes this world will remember us.

Oscar: This damn world will remember us.
Precocious: This cold world will remember us.

Both: No way they won’t remember us!)

Sir said...

Good evening, Blogland.

Noelle said...

((AHDBVLSHBJDVSJHD FB Vokay I'll try again))


I know... And, if you try to heal him further, it could do more damage. Sorry... *pulls out a small pen and runs it over his fur, not drawing*

*takes the cap off and draws a symbol on the back of her hand and stiffens*

Whew... Boy, that's a lot to deal with. *bops the fox's nose*

Noelle said...

OSMOSIS

Hello Sir

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

*gently pets the fox* Poor little guy...if i can do anything for him...

Ravel: Zaf is showing a soft side i never saw

Sir said...

Greetings, Ms. Dark, Kerias, Barnosky, and possibly Melody.

Noelle said...

No... He's not hurting anymore. *shows her the symbol* I've got it handled.

The Grave of a Coward said...

(I'm sorry I didn't get the email. It appears to be a problem on my end, and I have my best people on it. If you like, you could make a blog post with them or something, or I could simply wait and see them another time.
Sorry.)

Emerald Melody said...

(*Looks at Adra cautiously* Should I be afraid??)

The Grave of a Coward said...

(Be afraid, Emerald Melody.
Be very afraid.)

Noelle said...

((Okay Anni1 *nods*))

((No@@@ You'll love it))

Emerald Melody said...

(I suppose I could do with a nice surprise before the next few weeks creep in...

Look forward to it when it's finished then babe.)

The Grave of a Coward said...

(*sigh*
Now I'm all excited about pictures and my email doesn't work.
Phooey.)

Noelle said...

((muahahahhaha))

*sneezes*

*sips a cup of warm tea calmly*

The Grave of a Coward said...

(I gotta pause it. Thanks for reading! Bless your face. If you sneezed during this comment thread, bless YOU. Peace off! BOOP!

I apologize.
I felt the need to do that when you sneezed.)

Emerald Melody said...

(I dunno how I'm gonna get through the next few weeks without any of you.

You guys have no idea how important you all really are to me.)

Noelle said...

(9Thank you Toby :3))

Noelle said...

(wait waht))

The Grave of a Coward said...

(Awwwwww, Emerald, I know you were talking about me just there, because we've known one another for years and years and years, so I want you to know that . . .
*sniffles*
I love you.
*bursts into tears*
I love y'all so much!









But seriously though, you people are brilliant. You're fantastic. I love y'all. Skulduggery Pleasant, Derek Landy and Blogland. I salute thee.)

Sir said...

That was... Quite the outburst, Ms. Barnosky. Still, I understand and agree heartily with the sentiment.

Noelle said...

*nods* I feel the same

*cuddles her*

EM I FINISHED

GO TO FACEBOOIK

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

((O.o anyhow Zaffy back))

(Well, I was being facetious in the beginning. But at the end I was honest.)

Noelle said...

*hums a little and tucks the fox into her coat* Mer poor baby..
*looks at him* Dude, your walking hurts. Quit walking.

The Grave of a Coward said...

(I have to leave. Adra, I will see those pictures some other time, I suppose.
Farewell . . .
Farewell . . !)

Noelle said...

((Okay :/ *waves*))

((Ofc... This is a good musical))

*sits on her swing, her fox on her shoulder*

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

((Now you know why I love it xD))

*sits in snow*

Ravel: hey Zaf....do you know Henry Jekyll?

Yeah..why? English, no?

Ravel: well I was wondering...I saw him...you say you met him?

Yeah Niccolò killed him though

Ravel: really?

Hyde: *is behind Adra* Miss me?

Noelle said...

*falls off the swing, reeling back* What the hell

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

Hyde: So you did miss me. I can tell. Where's your creepy friend? The one in the black coat...Croatoan? That he'd be here protecting you from harm.

Noelle said...

*glares at him* Newsflash: in the year 2013, women don't have to depend on men to fight for them

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

Hyde: I do know that but you seem exceptionaly unlike most modern day women. So where is Zafira and her family? And your boyfriend? *is eyeing Adra like a piece of prey* ((Hmm do you think it'd be bad if Alastair and Hyde ever met?))

Noelle said...

*hisses* None of your business

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

Hyde: *steps up to her holding a knife to her* You or Zafira I hunt. Pick.

Noelle said...

*smiles* Catch me if you can *jogs backwards*

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

Hyde: *sighs and turns attention to the treehouse* Alexis darling....

Alexis: *sees Hyde* You.

Hyde: Me. *steps forward*

Alexis: Get away *runs*

Hyde: *sends pain into her mind*

Alexis: *stumbles* Get away!!!

Noelle said...

*lets Dimka run off to her lab*

Noelle said...

Right. *runs behind him, jumping on Hyde's back, a rope around his neck, and pulling back*

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

Hyde: *fells the rope* What is a rope doing on me, Adrasdos?

Alexis: *is freaked* If Lorcan was here....

Noelle said...

...hell.

I put it there

And you broke it

*hisses* But you stay away from my niece

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

Hyde: Children are fun to play with though.

Alexis: *summons flame* You touch me you die. My soon to be step dad and my mother would kill you if Adra didn't first

Hyde: Silence, child.

Alexis: *is forced to be silent*

Noelle said...

Alexis, darling. Get away from here.

Now

*is apparently still on Hyde's back and holds a knife to his throat*

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

Alexis: *teleports*

Hyde: *throws Adra off* Do not hold a knife to my neck.

*storms in* You!

Hyde: Yes, Zafira? Did you want more from the alley?

*draws knife* Want me to rearrange your face? Release Henry

Noelle said...

Do not threaten my niece

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

Hyde: *ignores Zafira* If I wish to threaten the child I shall. I do not care for what you desire. The child will obey me. I may sound like Jekyll but I admit this experiment is going rather well. *turns to Zafira and a knife lodges itself in her shoulder* Anyway. I must find the child. *walks away*

Noelle said...

*begins to pull at his hair* OI

*shouts back* ZAF LEARN HOW TO FIGHT

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

Hyde: *grabs Adra's wrist twisting it* Let go of the hair.

*hisses pulling knife out* BLAME NICCOLÃ’ HE WAS GOING TO TEACH ME! *comes and drives the knife into Hyde* Hey creepy boy stop being a perv

Noelle said...

*grabs at his throat, digging her fingernails in, ripping at it* *hisses* Then let go if my wrist

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

Hyde: *lets go of her wrist and stabs the hand on his throat* Now get off me, Adrasdos.

*sends shadows into his head*

Hyde: *enters Zafira's mind and messes around releasing Justaria*

*holds on further* NEVER* *glances at her hand*

Hyde: *pulls knife out and forcefully removes the hand* *goes towards the lab calling rather gently for the fox*

Noelle said...

*pulls her hand away*
Hey!

HEY! *runs after* HEY GET BACK HERE. *stumbles over her dress a bit*

Sonofabitch

*shouts at nothing* BLASTED VICTORIAN WEAR

Noelle said...

((Just started Act II))

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

Hyde; *smirke going in the lab and picking up Dimika* Hello fox...*pets it*

Justaria: *cackles* Freeeee!!! *follows Hyde*

Noelle said...

No! *grabs a pole, swinging it at him* *pulls Dimka away, slamming the lights of the lab mostly off and running to hide the fox*
*slides under a table near the far back* *huddles the fox , her cloak falling over both* *hides the fox*
*wishes she wore something else as she hides*

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

Hyde: *is really confused* Is that fox that important to Miss Adrasos?

Yeah it is *shadow-walks with Hyde*

Hyde: *grabs Zafira sending her into a tree* How did you get out?

Self control. *has a ring of shadows and slams them into Hyde*

Hyde: *laughs grabbing Zafira as his teleporter friend teleports them to the alley*

Noelle said...

*hears them leave* Oh good.

Wait

Shit.

*immediately begins to track Zaf*

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

Ravel: *finds Adra* Tracking Zafira? I'll help you

*in the alley apartment*

Hyde: *drives into wall*

*kicks and struggles against*

Hyde: Try harder, Zafira. *places a bracelet touching her skin* Your magic is bound

No...*growls*

Noelle said...

No... I've got her energy.. *immediately touches the wall, a portal opening*

Erskine, you have to get her out of there, okay? Please? You must. *nods and barges through, wielding a sword*

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

Ravel: Of course. *goes through portal*

Hyde: *looks at the teleporter* Get her somewhere else

*Zafira is teleported into a different part of the building* m

Hyde: *sends two people to guard and goes down* Now...*kneels beside Zafira playing with her memories while making some nasty cuts*

Noelle said...

*sighs* I don't have time for this..

Noelle said...

*lets herself be pulled to Hyde's energy instead*

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

Ravel: *quietly* Look if you want me to get her give me a general-

Saracen: *slips through the portal and looks at a door* There are guards ready for you. If you can get through them Hyde is down there

Noelle said...

Helpful. *kicks the door in, quickly disarming the two guards*
*walks on*

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

*the two follow staying quiet*

Saracen: there are four doors take the one leading downstairs the others have many traps of Hyde's.

Hyde: *realizes how afraid Zafira is* You can't fight back? *cuts a sigil on her hand* This ensures it

Noelle said...

*takes that door, growing down silently*

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

*both still follow*

Saracen: He's down here but expact a guard

Guard: *sees and attacks*

Ravel: *removes air from guard's head and makes him pass out* We don't kill unless necessary got it?

Noelle said...

*going

Noelle said...

*murmurs "no promises"*

Are we nearly there?

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

Saracen; Yes through the door on the left, Hyde has Zafira in here.

Ravel; Adra take Hyde I'll get Zaf...Saracen you do ehat is needed.

Saracen; I will help

Noelle said...

No.... Saracen, you need to find that teleporter of his... *tosses him a device* This can help you track them. They need to be eliminated at once..

*nods*

Good. *pushes the door open, sprinting in*

HEY EDWARD! *jumps at him, swinging her sword*

((Ah he just killed Lucy..)

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

Hyde: *sees and moves away from Zafira meeting Adra with the cane and hits her with it*

Saracen: *uses device to track the teleporter*

Ravel: *moves for Zafira lunging at the guard sending the to the ground and cutting out their throat and then tries to get Zaf stable*

((Ah i love the bit he sings while killing her))

Noelle said...

*grabs the cane and ripping it from him, flinging it away* Not quite, Edward..

((I like the song where it is Jekyll singing against Hyde))

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

Hyde: You found me suprisingly. *sends a punch to her head and kick to the stomach*

((Ah yes Confrontation. I love that! I think Facade, Dangerous Game the bit when killing lucy and Confrontation are my favourite))

Noelle said...

*stumbles back* *murmurs an obscenity in Slavic and jumps at him, one leg over his shoulder and flips the both of them to the ground* *touches the floor so the stone closes over his arms, encasing them*

((It just ended..))

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

((It gets better xD))

Hyde: Really? So what will you do now?

Saracen; *sees the teleporter and punches*

Teleporter: *fights back and tries to pin Saracen*

Saracen: I hate to kill *drives knife in chest*

Noelle said...

*points the sword at his chest* End you, Edward Hyde. And rid you of this world too kind to you

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

Hyde: And what if...I told you Zafira knows a way to seperate me from Jekyll? ((Btw he is truthful))

Noelle said...

So we can kill you separately, then?

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

Hyde: If she lives to tell you how then yes

Noelle said...

*sneers* Don't worry, Edward. She'll live. *stomps on his sternum*

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

Hyde: *hides the amount of pain* I suggest you see to her, Adrasdos

Ravel: I've got her somewhat stable I just can't do anything for any flashbacks...

Saracen: *backs away and the teleporter dies*

Guard: *sends daggers at Saracen*

Saracem: *ducks under and heads towards Adra*

Noelle said...

How do you mean, Ravel? What's the problem? *stomps on his sternum again in an attempt to break it*

Damn bones..

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

Ravel: He did something because she's freaking out she's reliving something. I don't know what...and Javier got a powrrful Sensitive to break their link so I can't even ask him...

Hyde: *laughs* Try harder

Ravel: lets take Hyde prisoner for assault

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

((Page 394..

Noelle said...

*is standing above Hyde* I think there are quite a few more charges to his name.

As for Zaf... I'm not a Sensitive. There is a good one in Delhi... The best.. Zaf needs to see her

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

Ravel: Alright and as for Hyde he can stay in Ireland Saracen and I can take him if you take Zaf to Delhi? As soon as he's in a cell I'll be over to Zaf

Noelle said...

*narrows her eyes* No offence, but he isn't being let out of my sight. If you remember, I let you out of my sight once, turns out you ran off with someone else.

So I have learned my lesson, ta. I give one of you a portal, and you take Zaf to Delhi, while I stay here and ensure that Hyde doesn't break out and try to go after Zaf or her family again

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

Saracen: Erskine you take Zafira. I'll be useful for Adra and I rather not come back to see you two kill each other

Ravel: Fine. *picks Zaf up gently*

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

Bah i accept my fate for first
