Oooh FUN!



My editor has read the first (rough) draft of Book 9, and he loves it. I'm on the home stretch now — the end is in sight (in more ways than one). Over the next two or three weeks my head is going to be down and I'm going to working hard to fill in those gaps, to link up those scenes, to write those missing chapters. Right now I'm at 100,000 words. The end result will PROBABLY be about 120,000 words — maybe just slightly shorter than KOTW. Of course, in order to finish the book, I'll need to pick a winner of the Who Gets to Die competition we ran ages ago, and then that lucky reader will get to meet their grisly end...

And because I, and therefore WE, are on the home stretch, this blog is going to be choc-a-block with announcements and reveals over the next few weeks. By the end of THIS week, for example, we'll be revealing the cover for the Armageddon-Outta-Here short story collection. Next week, we'll reveal the full, WRAPAROUND cover for the collection (it's awesome). And the week after that? We'll be revealing the title for the ninth, and last, Skulduggery Pleasant book.

*starts flipping around*
*cartwheels and flips*

Star Inkbright said...

(Sorry, busy. D:)

Well, Silente, he's older than you in some of the timeline, younger in others, and also, he was born a couple of centuries after you and lives in the future, so . . .

#ChaseForBookNine

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

BBS guys!
*waves crazily*
*jumps, leaps, flips and cartwheeks away*

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

Really? No one commented in, like, three quarters of an hour? Wow.

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

*sits at the bottom of a tree*
*starts contemplating the meaning of life*
*gets bored of that*
*just sits and thinks*

Star Inkbright said...

Hello!

#ChaseForBookNine

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

Ah look! A wild bubble! Hey! You done your powerpoint?

Star Inkbright said...

I just looked back at the powerpoint, and instead of writing 'quite clearly' I'd written 'quite quietly'.
*facepalm*
WHY

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

No, almost. :P

I GOT DISTRACTED EMAILING
AND ALSO DOING THIS STUFF FOR MY MUM
AND DINNER

#ChaseForBookNine

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

So no then. Its okay. I'm being distracted by the hail hitting my window and the possibility of lightning.

Star Inkbright said...

O_O

WHAT IS UP WITH EVERYONE'S WEATHER I SWEAR

#ChaseForBookNine

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

What's up with the weather? Nothing. This is the usual for the Pennines. Rain rain rain and rain. With a little more rain. And a tiny splattering of rain. Oh and the vague possibility of no rain and no sun. Its a mirical if we see the sky at all.

Star Inkbright said...

-_-
Fun fun fun . . .

And nah, it's just - Adra's snowing, you're hailing, we're doing nothing . . . uh . . . :p

#ChaseForBookNine

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

That's the world for ya. Screwed up.

Star Inkbright said...

Uh huh. Screwed up with a screwdriver. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

Wbd, I think. D: Sorry!

#ChaseForBookNine

Alastair Cruciatus said...

I believe we have some unfinished business to attend to, Star.

Star Inkbright said...

*freezes*
. . .
Do we?

#ChaseForBookNine

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

Good day, Alastair.

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Hello, vampire.
Yes, Star, we do. *forms a wall of air to keep the vampire out, and another to prevent Star from backing up more than two steps* *draws a knife lined with red and approaches her*

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

Alastair!
*starts battering at the air wall*
Don't you dare! Leave her alone Alastair!
*batters the invisible barrier with all her strenght*

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

HELLOOOOOO

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

Jubi! What's your discipline! Can you get me past this air wall? Quickly! He's after start!
*keeps battering at the wall*

Star Inkbright said...

. . . !
*stumbles backwards too steps, and presses against the wall*
Please.
I probably won't do anything, but I'd do a lot, just please, um, please . . . *words failing her*

((Hey, Jubi! :)
ALASTAIR IS BACK. :O))

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

*two

#ChaseForBookNine

Alastair Cruciatus said...

*forms another wall to distance himself from Jubilance* *strengthens the wall holding the vampire back*

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

*batters harder against the wall*
ALASTAIR! LEAVE HER ALONE!
*starts kicking the wall*
Star! Fight back! Defend yourself!

Star Inkbright said...

Please.
Please.
Please.
*realises I'm just repeating myself and shuts mouth*
*why? What the hell did I do? He should have killed Silente, she was the one who -*
*no, he shouldn't have killed Silente*
*but he shouldn't kill me either*
*please, please, please, please, please . . . *
*thinking the word over and over again, as if it will stop anything* *unfortunately, it's not a literal magic word*
*please, please, please . . .*

#ChaseForBookNine

Alastair Cruciatus said...

*grins broadly* Will you scream, if I promise not to hurt you?

Snow said...

Herro..?

Star Inkbright said...

*looks at Silente as if she's crazy, and also with more anger that was probably necessary* It's ALASTAIR.
I can't fucking FIGHT.

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

I can scream.
*nods at Alastair eagerly*
I can scream.

((Hey, Snow! :)))

#ChaseForBookNine

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

ALASTAIR! SHE NOT THE ONE WHO ANNOYED YOU YESTERDAY! LEAVE HER ALONE!
*batters the wall harder throwing herself against it*
Pick on someone who deserves it you bully!

Snow said...

((Oh, joy. Look at what I've stumbled into...))

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

((Hey snow))

Star Inkbright said...

*automatically replies* Silente doesn't deserve it.

*realises I'm probably not helping* *gives an internal helpless shrug*

((Hey, Snow! :)))

#ChaseForBookNine

Alastair Cruciatus said...

*grins even wider* Excellent. *takes a step closer, bridging the gap between them, and slides the blade of the knife carefully across her cheek* *where the edge pierces her skin, it sears*

Snow said...

((Star, you alreadt said hey. Silly bubble. *flicks*))

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

((SILENTE!! STAR!! ALASTAIR!!! SNOW!!! *supermegatacklehugsofdoom to everyone except Alastair because he's scary*

HAI!!

WBD))

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

Alastair!
*battles against the wall with all her fury*
ALASTAIR YOU ROTTEN BULLY! LEAVE HER ALONE YOU DUMBASS! SHE DOESNT DESERVE IT! LEAVE HER ALONE YOU DICK!
*growls in angers and continues attacking the wall*

Snow said...

((I think I hugged Alis once. And yes, i am calling Alistair Alis. c:))

Star Inkbright said...

((I am a silly bubble.
I'm a silly bubble who's BEING CUT OPEN and am soon to be a SILLY DEAD BUBBLE what is life WHAT IS DEATH ah dammit))

*screams, not even really having to think about it much, but when I do, I continue screaming, focusing on the pain, the terror . . . hoping to satisfy him*

#ChaseForBookNine

Sir said...

*tuts*

Honestly, why is there is always some sort of fight going on when I arrive?

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

Alastair just go. You're a pain

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

*hears stars scream*
*fights harder against the air*

Snow said...

((That, sir, is one of the Mysteries of The Universe. It's like Chio and her Frozen Sense.))

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Of course she doesn't deserve it. *stares at the vampire, eyes gleaming* That's what makes it fun.

Star Inkbright said...

*doesn't notice Sir or Zaf* *too buys screaming*

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

*headwalls slightly at that* *wonders what I can do to make me deserve it*

#ChaseForBookNine

Sir said...

Indeed, Ms. Stormberg.

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

*sends shadow knives at Alastair* bugger off creep!!! *shadows are around me protectivly

Snow said...

(( Alis isn't too bad. He's actually my favorite blogland violin.))

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

*glares into Alastairs eyes*
Oi! Stop being a sick twisted barstool! Let. Her. Go!
*wonders if she can jump over the wall*
*growls and moves back a bit*
*takes a running leap at the wall*

Alastair Cruciatus said...

*carves into Star's other cheek in the same pattern* *heightens the wall of air to meet the vampire* *Zafira's shadows pass harmlessly through him an dodge themselves in Star instead*

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

I hate him right now. I just rather Niccolò.

Noelle said...

Maybe people are just violent, Sir

Sir said...

Well, some people certainly are, Ms. Dark.

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

Alastair Cruciatus. Get the hell away from Star.


Aro: *sends blinding pain through Alastair's mind*

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

*meets the wall with a thunk*
*lands on the floor and moves back again*
*charges at the wall leaping and flipping to get higher than before*

Noelle said...

Indeed

Star Inkbright said...

((He's my favourite Blogland violin by far, I think. :P))

*screams and dodges away from the shadows as best I can* *reaches up hand to touch cheek(s), then put it down because what can I do?*

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

*puts hand

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

((Oh, wait.
*remembering a few other great Blogland violins*
Actually, it's debatable, but as a violin, he's definitely my favourite. :)))

#ChaseForBookNine

Alastair Cruciatus said...

*conjures a new gust of air to slam the vampire slam down* *smirks at Aro* Keep it coming. I'm sure somewhere, far away, what's left of Aretha is screaming. Our minds are still connected, in case you couldn't tell. And she was a friend of yours, wasn't she?

Snow said...

((Yeah, Alis is an amazing Violin. ))

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

*glares in anger through the wall*
*tenses up as much as her human body will allow*
*releases her tent ion, launching herself high into the sky*
*summersaults over the wall of air*
Let. Her. Go.

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

Aro: She'd rather suffer then have you out terrorizing her friends. *attempts to disrupt nerve signals to the brain to immobilize Alastair*

Olivia: *watches in shock

Snow said...

((Let it gooo,
Let it goooooo,
Can't hold it back anymooorree))

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Stop moving, Star. *punctures the edges of her arms and legs with shadows to fasten her to the wall*

Noelle said...

*drifts back again*

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

*moves slowly forward towards Alastair and star*
I said let her go.

Snow said...

(( IT IS OKAY, MY BUBBLE FRIEND, BECAUSE

MY HEART WILL GO ONNNN))

Star Inkbright said...

*unsurprisingly stops moving*
*wonders whether to, like, move in my mind to compensate*
*realises that's vaguely ridiculous*
*attempts to pace around in my mind anyway, just to distract myself*
*there's a lot of pacing room in my mind, what with there being no brain and all*

#ChaseForBookNine

Alastair Cruciatus said...

*redirects Aro's attempts to Aretha again* *smiles* Now this is interesting, vampire. *raises his knife to Star's throat* Move, and she dies.

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

*pauses in her forward movement*
Your going to kill her either way.
*stands still locking gazes with Alastair*
Aren't you?

Snow said...

((I love how I truly don't care that star is about to die... WHOOOO, TEAM ALIS))



((IDEKA))

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

Aro: *sighs* does this work...? Szoren stop it

Star Inkbright said...

*freezes even more than I already am*
*feels like an icicle - cold and unmoving*
*apart from the wounds, glowing red hot*
*or white hot, seeing as how I'm an icicle, or maybe transparent hot, idk*
*mind wandering*
*stop it, Star* *focus*
*on what? Your imminent death?*
*okay, go back to wandering*

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

((SNOW! :P))

#ChaseForBookNine

Snow said...

((Whhhaaatttt?! XD))

Star Inkbright said...

((YOU ARE NOT MY FRIEND ANYMORE. *shuns*))

((not that it matters seeing as how I'll be dead soon but WEY HEY))

#ChaseForBookNine

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Take a guess. Telling you would only make your decision easier.

Snow said...

((Nawwwwww but I wuv ooo starie :c))

Star Inkbright said...

((Okay, the problem with having a character when you don't know who they are is - well, there's multiple problems, but the main one is powers, so um, considering you don't know what they are, then if I randomly do something, just take my word it's possible and explanations will hopefully come later?))
((just so, you know, no one murders me for god modding))
((not that she CAN do much at the moment but um))

#ChaseForBookNine

Snow said...

((I g2g. *hugs all* bye!))

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Adra was almost right. All people are just violent.
Aro, honestly, you of all people should know that that's sealed.

Star Inkbright said...

((Of course you do, Snow, of course you do. :P))

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

((Fours, Snow!))

#ChaseForBookNine

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

*nods*
Well then
*straightens*
Guess we've got a show down. Although showdowns are boring. In fact I hate showdowns they last too lo-
*runs forward as a blur of movement and knocks Alastairs hand away*
*grabs star and pushes her away from him*
*turns to face him*
What now?

Star Inkbright said...

((How can you push me away when I can't move?


My arms and legs are punctured with shadows to keep me in place. Fun.))

#ChaseForBookNine

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

Aro: Its sealed for Nic I didnt know it was for you. Now kibdly stop or I kill you.

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

((Yeah your limbs may be slightly...er...ripped..))

Star Inkbright said...

((Well, WONDERFUL))

*cries out in pain*

#ChaseForBookNine

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

((Your not dead!))

Alastair Cruciatus said...

*sees her, of course- he can hear her thoughts and her heartbeat picking up- and presses the knife into Star's neck, just hard enough so she'll live for a few minutes* *after slicing into Star, dematerializes, so the vampire moves though him* *lets it try to pull her away* It's unwise to gamble with someone else's life against an opponent you don't know.

Star Inkbright said...

((Only JUST not dead. :P))

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

*gasps* *just kind of lies there, not moving, overwhelmed*

#ChaseForBookNine

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

Star!
*rips off a piece of her dress*
*wraps it around her neck to help stem the flow*
Star listen to me. Stay with me. Okay. Focus. Keep pressure on this. Don't go anywhere!
*turns around and faces Alastair*
So what now. You've hurt her. Possibly killed her. What now.

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

Olivia: Alastair that was cool

Star Inkbright said...

((ALASTAIR THAT WAS COOL?????????????????? XD))

*would nod, but -*
*never mind*
*tries to focus*
*Silente, Silente, Silente*
*her vision's gone*
*or maybe her eyes are closed*
*she thinks her eyes are closed*
*she opens them, but everything looks funny
*her mind's drifted off*
*she feels, distant, remote . . .*
*Silente, Silente, Silente . . .*
*focus*
*focus, dammit*

#ChaseForBookNine

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Go ahead and try, Aro. I'm enjoying myself.
What now? Oh, I dunno, go find another of your friends to kill in front of you- but next time I'll take it slower, torture them to death- then maybe start another plague, or a war, or both. I'm more interested in your answer to that question. What do you do, now that your friend is dying?

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

*tries to focus on Alastair and not on the scent of the blood*
*realises her hands are shaking*
*focuses harder through her foggy mind*

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

Are you stupid? *goes over to Star and starts to heal her*

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

*grits her teeth*
I help her.
*turns and ignores Alastair*
*focuses on stars face*
Star. Star you still here?
*presses the blood soaked fabric harder onto her neck*
Come on. Don't go. Don't you dare.
*ties it off tighter*
*crawls ba slightly*
Come on Star. I can't help you here. Help yourself. Fight.

Star Inkbright said...

* . . . slowly . . . everything . . . fades . . . and Star is so faded, she barely even realises it*

#ChaseForBookNine

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Don't push away the smell of blood, its salty tans in the air. Breathe deeply. Take it in. Watch it- it pours out in waves, in tune with her fading pulse.
You like this, Olivia? You like watching people die?

Alastair Cruciatus said...

*forces Zafira away with air, slaming her back into a thick tree, before she can finish*

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

*grits her teeth harder*
*tries more to block out the blood*
*turns her head away from zaf and star*
*says through gritted teeth*
Leave. My. Friends. Alone.

Star Inkbright said...

*eyelids flutter as Zaf starts to heal me, and stares uncomprehendingly into the grey fuzz before starting to fade again* *but no* *Silente, Silente, Silente . . . *

* . . . fading . . .*

Sir said...

*crosses his arms and frowns as he watches*

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

Olivia: *goes u to Alastair*I...I do. Its almost..uhm...word I need..mesmorizing. How you did that.

*uses shadows to cushion self and shadow-walks to Star and tries to heal her again*

Amethyst Temerity said...

Hello guys!

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

*moves over to state again*
*holds her wound closed*
Zaf. You Kay?
*feels her mind getting foggyer*
*fights against the shaking of her body and the fog of her mind*

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

((Hey Amethyst!))

Star Inkbright said...

((*almost chokes at Olivia and ends up in another mini coughing fit*
*because I have a cough now, yo*))

((MESMERISING???????????????????????? :O
WHAT IS THIS MADNESS???
O_O
O_O
What the hell. O_O
*would rather like to see how this will play out*))

*would smile gratefully at Zaf, but is too busy just kind of sitting there doing nothing and stuffs*

#ChaseForBookNine

Sir said...

Greetings, Ms. Temerity.

Amethyst Temerity said...

Hello! How are you guys?

Sir said...

Standard, Ms. Temerity. I hope that you are well.

Star Inkbright said...

((I'm good, Amethyst! :)
You?))

#ChaseForBookNine

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

((Oh you know *makes random hand gesture*))

Amethyst Temerity said...

I am...except that I have two tests I have to study for tomorrow... *sigh*

Star Inkbright said...

((@Amethyst: :( Good luck. *hugs*))

#ChaseForBookNine

Alastair Cruciatus said...

*pushes Zafira and the vampire away again, forming a new wall to keep them back* *draws a small knife and tosses it to Olivia* *guestures to Star, as if presenting her as a gift* Cut her. Skin is fragile- it breaks quite easily.

Amethyst Temerity said...

...ah...he's here again!

Star Inkbright said...

*doesn't really respond due to the fact I'm unconscious*

#ChaseForBookNine

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

No! Not again!
*starts battering at the wall*
Zaf can you shadow all in?

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Yes, Amethyst. Join the fray, or just enjoy the show. This is just a taste of what I'm infamous for.

Star Inkbright said...

((Alastair is really enjoying himself. :P))

#ChaseForBookNine

Amethyst Temerity said...

I can tell... kinda...

Amethyst Temerity said...

...wait...what's Olivia doing with that knife?!?

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

Olivia: Seriously? *catches knife grinning* Thank you. *goes over to Star and cuts her skin extremely close to her eyes*


I can't shadow in!!!

(Sorry slightly distant

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

((Hopefully not what I think she doing with that knife))

Sir said...

Attempting to imitate her favorite psychopath, I believe, Ms. Temerity.

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

*snarls* fine then! We'll find a new way in.
*leaps up the wall trying to reach the top again*

Star Inkbright said...

((OH FUCK
THAT IS ONE DISTRUBED KID :O))

*is cut* *doesn't respond, due to being unconscious*

#ChaseForBookNine

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Olivia is using that knife to hurt her mother's friend. *watches the little girl like an experiment, his eyes exactly the same as Niccolò's when he's thrilled by some new discovery*

Amethyst Temerity said...

Why is she following Alastair now? What caused her to deflect sides?

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

Olivia: *continues to cut, enjoying it, * Alastair...Can I try to cut her heart out?

(Hey I never said Olivia was normal. Kind of a good plot twist.)

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

*growls as she falls short*
*turns and starts to scale and adjacent tree*
*watches what is happening while climbing*
*reaches the top and perches on one of the branches getting ready*

Amethyst Temerity said...

Oh dear...that's messed up...

Alastair Cruciatus said...

*approaches Star, his fingers brushing over her leg, and heals just her neck, so that she won't immediately fall unconscious a second time* *invades her mind to force her back into consciousness, then backs away again to keep watching Olivia*

Sir said...

Ms. Temerity, I personally believe that it is because she inherited her mother's rather unhealthy fascination with Mr. Croatoan, but since he is rather unwilling to entertain her presence, she goes for the next-best thing, one of his names.

Or she could simply be mad.

Or both.

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

*is simply frozen in horror watching Olivia*

Ravel: Zaf...what is Olivia doing with a knife?!

She...I...*can't even comprehend whats going on* Olivia stop!

Amethyst Temerity said...

Olivia likes gerbils right? Do you think showing/giving her one might bring her back to her senses?

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

Olivia: *watches Alastair and then grins being given the chance to actually have Star awake*

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

*leaps from the branch arms wide*
*watches the figure grow smaller*
*this was gonna be a tough landing*
*starts fall I back down on stars side of the wall*

Sir said...

Ms. Temerity, if the young Olivia continues, at this rate, she is just as likely to skin the creature as she is to hug it.

Alastair Cruciatus said...

*considers* If you want to, I won't stop you, but if you do that, she'll die. And once she's dead, she won't feel the pain. ((I wonder if the rest of you remember Adra explaining that because Zafira was possessed while pregnant, Olivia had a higher potential to become evil than most people.))

Star Inkbright said...

((OH FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK :O
YES, ZAF, GOOD PLOT TWIST! :O))

*snaps back to consciousness* *screams, failing out at Olivia*

Maybe....I don't know she's lost her mind. She could seruously be choosing to.

Aro: she's not bonded to Alastair as far as I can tell its her free will

Star Inkbright said...

((*nods at Alastair/whoever he is in parenthesis*))

Olivia: Cut it out!! *stabs Stars hand deeply*

Amethyst Temerity said...

Well, there's no harm in trying!
*rushes to nearest pet store and gets a gerbil*
*runs back*

OLIVIA! GERBIL!

Alastair Cruciatus said...

*uses air to place pressure on the vampire, holding it down* Zafira, you remember when Adra said your daughter might become evil, don't you? Because to you, sadism is evil. I hold that she's simply smarter than the rest of you. Perhaps too young to know she's meant to hide this part of herself.

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

Olivia: *looks up at Alastair* Oh yeah I can't do what you can. Okay. *goes back to cutting Star making strange patterns on her arms and then stomach*

*lunges at Alastair* Why would you encourage her?! She's almost 9!!! *has a knife aimed at Alastair* YOU ENCOURAGED MY DAUGHTER

*maybe I'm not unconscious, but I don't think this classifies as conscious* *this is hell* *hell* *hell* *hell* *make it stop* *MAKE IT STOP* *oh God please make it stop* *please* *please* *it hurts so much* *I can't take it* *please . . .*

Amethyst Temerity said...

Come on, Olivia! GERBIL! DON'T YOU LIKE GERBILS!!!

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

Olivia: *growls and stabs her other hand and bends her wrist back until the bones snap from being bent the wrong way*

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

*fights against the pressure forcing her down*
*is able to move under it*
*moves towards Olivia slowly*
Olivia! Stop!

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

Olivia; You'll be next if you touch my pets.

Amethyst Temerity said...

*places hand on ground*
*manipulates ground to form a large wall between Olivia and Star*

Star Inkbright said...

*maybe I'm screaming* *maybe I'm crying* *maybe I'm throwing up* *I don't know* *I don't care* *make it stop* *just please, make it stop* *please* *I'll do anything* *anything* *make it stop*

(I dedicate this page to plot twists. They're epic)

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

(Msd also we're doing dress rehearsal

Amethyst Temerity said...

Olivia! I'll burn the gerbil if you don't stop!
*fire starts burning on other hand not holding gerbil*

Star Inkbright said...

((Ikr, Zsf. :)))

#ChaseForBookNine

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Of course I encouraged her. What a valiant effort, Amethyst, but as you can see she'd rather inflict pain than hold a gerbil. You can understand that, can't you? No matter how kind you are, some part of you, however small, likes it when others get hurt. We only fool ourselves by pretending otherwise.

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

*moves slowly towards star under the pressure*
Stop. Olivia stop.
*realises how much blood there is*
*starts humming to try distract herself*
*now is not the time to lose control*

Amethyst Temerity said...

So Olivia doesn't care if I burn the gerbil? Okay.

Alastair Cruciatus said...

And you'll singe that tiny, helpless creature to make her stop. It feels good to have that power in your hands, doesn't it? Aren't you more comfortable when you can get what you want by force?

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

Olivia: *cuts at Stars legs now*


Put te gerbil down I actually am fond of her gerbils.

Amethyst Temerity said...

Olivia, stop cutting Star and I'll give you the gerbil...

Alastair Cruciatus said...

*lays a hand on the wall Amethyst made, and it begins to disintigrate*

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

*moves to Olivia's feet*
*fights to stand*
Leave her alone Olivia.
*feels her body trying to change*
*mutters* no no no. Not now. No.
*pushes the monster down*

Star Inkbright said...

((Chaos Walking is a really amazing book series. You should all read it.
Sorry, I was just reminded of it. :P
There's this scene in it, and I would mention it, but SPOILERSSSSSSSSSs . . . .))
((You know, Chaos Walking is amazing, but being on this blog is better than reading a lot of books - as in, 'reading' 'a lot of books', not 'reading a lot' 'of books'. As in, there's loads of books that are worse than this roleplay, because this place is fantastic, I swear))

Star Inkbright said...

*isn't really a person anymore* *just pain, and trying to escape it*

Star Inkbright said...

((Of course, a great deal of books are UTTERLY FANTASTIC and I hope I never stop reading because honestly, wow . . . but there's others that are not so great, and they make me feel happier, because I'm like, well, if THAT got published, then SO FUCKING CAN I))
((We should document and publish the roleplay, really, but - you know, it's a mammoth task, and it never ends. :P))
