Announcement

As you all know, today is the day the title of Book 9 is announced.

Except it isn't.

Nope, now that day will be Monday, because there's something else that I want to talk about instead, something a little more important than a book title.

I've been working hard these past few months. I write the occasional blog entry, I've barely been on twitter, I've barely glanced at the Forums or the Facebook page. I'm writing, and I know you understand that, and I appreciate your patience. It's not going to be for very much longer, either. I'm planning on finishing the book next week. I have a lot to do, but I reckon I can do it.

But something has happened in my absence. Something troubling. Not on the twitter page — everyone there is funny and enthusiastic. Not on the Facebook page — everyone there is supportive and astonishingly excitable. Not on the Forums, either — they argue, debate, discuss, and at no time do they ever let these arguments spill over into anything else.

Nope, the trouble is here, in the Comments section of this blog.

Most of the Minions who comment here are my kind of people. They're weird. And I mean, unashamedly odd. I've always been so, so proud of you guys, because I look around at other fandoms and I see everyone sniping at each other and divisions forming and I'm comforted by the fact that none of that happens here.

But I've been away. I've taken my eye off the game. And now I'm seeing behaviour that could be classed as bullying.

You all know my stance on bullying. I will not abide it. The blog, twitter, Facebook, Forums... ANYTHING associated with me must have zero tolerance for bullying. I just won't have it.

The Minions who comment here, I want you to think about the comments you leave. If you never say anything negative about anyone, step over here beside me. I like you. You can be my friend. But if you think about the things you say and you're frowning to yourself? Then I'm probably talking to you.

Harsh words are one thing. We all argue. We all have harsh words. But if all you have, for one particular person, are harsh words? If you CONSISTENTLY say negative things about one PARTICULAR person? Then that's bullying. And that has to stop.

I'm not naming any names. I don't want the bullies to be, in turned, bullied by people who are annoyed they won't get the title until Monday. I don't want recriminations. But what I do want is for you to realise that we're all here because, to some degree, we're all the same.  We each have enough in common, as people, as individuals, to love the same things. Do you realise how wonderful that is? To KNOW you have something in common with all these other people?

I have never called Minions "my fans". I will call them fans of the books, fans of the characters, but they're never MY fans. They're never fans of ME. Because we're all the same. I'm not better than you, just because I'm the writer and you're the reader. I have enough in common with each of you to know that, if we met, we'd get along. We'd find SOME common ground.

You're on a train. You see someone in another seat reading a book you LOVE. And you instantly smile, because you have connected with that person. So look around. See all the people who comment and the people who tweet and blog and post... there are your people. These are your friends.  Let the harsh words fade away. Wipe the slate clean. Start fresh.

Where I train, in the most brutal form of fighting there is, we have a rule, and it's quite simple. We're training to fight and hurt and break and smash. On the street, we're animals. We're horrible. We're violent. We're nasty. But in the club, when we train, the rule is: Be nice or go home.

So be nice. Being nice is so much NICER than not being nice. Try it and see, and then you can come over here and stand beside me, and you can be my friend too.

But don't make me angry. You wouldn't like what I do to your favourite characters when I'm angry.

Lorcan: I tried to do it. Before I got my silver. Put a gun to my head.

And before I came to Blogland, I tried to hang myself a few times because of my dad.

Basically, I think I'm trying to say that I understand and I don't expect you to want to talk. But when you do, you will feel more alive than you ever have before.

It's not a sin to be stupid or selfish. Being selfish sometimes can be rewarding to yourself. But don't think that your pain can't be shared. You just gotta give it a shove towards the right person.

Chione Asahina said...

Oh, I still have to Dedicate.

I dedicate this page to friends, because we may fight, we may almost kill each other (sorry) but we will always be there for each other when someone needs us. That also counts for my amazing Fiance too, who always makes me happy no matter what my mood is. I love you Blake :)

John said...

Love you too, and heck in a rare show of affection I love everyone on this blog as close friends. You people are great T^T

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

*blushes*

Chione Asahina said...

Awwww he really is a big softie <3
*hugs him tightly*

John said...

Not that much Zaf.
You guys are great.
But not that great.

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

*hits Blake* Don't make me turn you to stone

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

((Great ded Chi.))

*mutters* yeah, shove the weight into ssomeone else, great idea,
*smiles down at him* thanks, I'll keep that in mind.
*jumps out o the tree landing smoothly*
*starts walking with no destination in mind*

Chione Asahina said...

*her limbs pulse and she grabs her arms, remembering Zafira's power to turn people to stone and flinches backwards*

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

Its not mine technically, I just mimick John

Chione Asahina said...

*stumbles over her bedside table and falls backwards, still clutching her arms*

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

Oh what if...no Alastair won't come back. *sits on a rock* Didn't I say the world was cruel, didn't i?

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

*hears a commotion in Chi's house*
What the?
*run into the house and up the stairs to the bedroom*
*runs to Chi*
What's wrong!

John said...

((Sorry for poofing once more)
*Kneels down next to Chio*
Chio! What's wrong?!

Chione Asahina said...

Remember when Blake let Erebus out... and fought us against each other? *looks at her limbs then up at Silente*

Chione Asahina said...

When I fought against Zafira's clone... that was the technique it used... it turned my limbs to stone and then melted them... that's how they broke off... *shivers and limbs continue pulsing*

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

But your arms were fixed!
*reaches out and touches one of her arms looking scared*

John said...

*Picks Chio up and holds her close*
It's okay... Erebus won't hurt anyone any more.
Your arms are fine, you're all healed.
*Lays her down on the bed*
Rest a bit

Ravel: Zaf, you need to relax.

I can't. I really can't.

Ravel: You really should.

Force me.

Ravel: I won't hurt you, I simply can't.

Chione Asahina said...

No..i'm fine, I don't have to rest... *sits up*

Amethyst Temerity said...

Hey guys!

John said...

Hey Amy
Chio, you're sure?

Amethyst Temerity said...

*looks around wondering what has happened*

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

Aro: Alexis! Stop it.

Alexis: No. *stalks off*

Aro: Alexis...please. You're my sister.

Alexis: You think I care?

Krystal: Stop. Alexis he never meant-

Alexis: I don't care.

Amethyst Temerity said...

*whispers* What's going on?

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

Aro: Lexi, I'm sorry.

Alexis: Too late.

Aro: Alexis just stop.

Alexis: *draws knife* I said go away.

Aro: You're too cowardly.

Alexis: *stalks off*

Krystal: Aro don't, she'll kill you.

Aro: She's my sister!


Olivia: *hums Castle on a Cloud*

Hey baby.

Amethyst Temerity said...

...*wanders around aimlessly*

Amethyst Temerity said...

*yells* Hello!?!
*listens to it echo*

Emerald Melody said...

*Lorcan runs after Alexis and puts his hand gently on her shoulder*

Lorcan: Lexi? What's wrong sweets?

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

Alexis: Its Aro! He thinks I want to talk to him.

Emerald Melody said...

Lorcan: Oh.

*holds out his hand for Lexi*

Stick with me and he'll understand you don't want to talk. Such a dick.

Alastair Cruciatus said...

*runs up to Lorcan and Alexis* Hey guys! How are you?

#ChaseForBook9

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

Alexis: Thanks- ARETHA!! *hugs tightly* Oh my god Ari!!

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Um- hi! *hugs her back* ...Is something wrong?

#ChaseForBook9

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

Alexis: My dick of a brother, Aro, attacked me a few days ago and I'm furious at him. *shows Ari the scar the symbol left* He almost got the memories Nic hid from me of being in his head.

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Oh, that looks nasty... *places an arm comfortingly on her shoulder* *sighs* It's too bad that he didn't get to finish. *from the moment she starts to speak, Alexis starts to shrink- by the end of the sentence, Alexis has become a completely inanimate doll* *hands it to Lorcan, smiling kindly* Now she won't feel any pain anymore, and you can look after her all the time.

#ChaseForBook9

Emerald Melody said...

*Lorcan squeezes Lexi's hand comforting.*

Lorcan: hey Ari. Same hold, oh yeah and my mother is evil and ran off with the shadow Drew who is most likely Deacon.

And now my dad is out for vengeance and doesn't give a fuck anymore and yeah...

But Lexi is more important because if Aro comes near her, I'll kill him.

Emerald Melody said...

(Ari!!! LOL WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT LOL SERIOUS SITUATION HERE AND YOU SHRINK HER!!!!

CAN WE NOT LOL It's too late in the night to even get my brain in gear to deal with a shrunken Alexis lol)

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

Alexis: *cries out realizing too late what happened*

Aro: What- ALASTAIR!!! *draws knife and lunges at Aretha* Leave my sister alone!!! Fix what you've done to her!!! *for once has a look of pure hatred* Do it now or I force Niccolò back out the hard way.

Alastair Cruciatus said...

((You don't have to react if you don't want to. I've been planning this for a long time. And you should know that she isn't just smaller- she's an inanimate object.))

#ChaseForBook9

Alastair Cruciatus said...

*slides backwards, looking confused* But I thought that you lot wanted me back...

#ChaseForBook9

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

Aro: Who are you, answer me truthfully or I pry in your mind. Why did you turn Alexis into a doll? I want my sister back.

Melanie Blase said...

hello guys!

Melanie Blase said...

o... is nobody on?

Melanie Blase said...

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

I am....? I don't know what I'm supposed to do....

Melanie Blase said...

hello!!!

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

Hi

Melanie Blase said...

so... how's life?

Alastair Cruciatus said...

((Apologies. I'm distant.))

I haven't lied to you yet, love. But I'm not Aretha. I just thought I'd pop in and say hello, leave you all a little gift, since you wanted it so badly. Here you are, then. *hands Aro the doll* Enjoy it. *takes a step back, giving him Aretha's smile, and vanishes*

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

Confusing.

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

Aro: No....no.....

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

Aro: Mom!!!!

What?!

Aro: It's....Lexi...*whimpers*

*looks at the doll of Alexis* Oh...my....god....

Ravel: What- *goes dead silent* Who did this?

Aro: Alastair. He posed as Aretha...and...

Jeez...*is pale* My child...

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

*takes the doll of Alexis* No...no....

Aro: I didn't know! I'm so sorry....

Ravel: Alastair found his target.

He took her from me twice....*just holds the doll close* He took her from me...

Ravel: What do we tell Christopher and Olivia?

*quietly* We tell Olivia the truth. Christopher won't understand, he's too young. We'll tell him she's gone on a very important mission. He knows she helps people.

Aro: We have to reverse this!

*gives Ravel the doll and runs out into Blogland*

Snow said...

A blonde, a judge and a camel walked into the bar.
The bartender looked at them and said, "this sounds like the beginning of a bad joke..."


Hia.

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

*keeps running into the middle of Blogland* *just lets out a scream of fury, sadness, despair, and desperation* *slowly walks to a tree, pacing around it, shadows lashing uncontrollably* What did I do wrong?! Why is it my child? He's hurt my family.

*screeches at a tree* God damn it, Cruciatus, show yourself! What do you want with me? What else do you want to take?! You've taken my child, what else do you want? For me to loose my ever loving mind?? *mutilates a tree with shadows* Just show yourself, Cruciatus.

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

((Hi Snow- currently roleplaying Zaf loosing her ever loving mind. ))

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

Ravel: We need to stop him.

Aro: My sister is a doll!!! Do something!!!

Ravel: Aro, Zaf has the only shot in hell to!

Aro: I want to wrap my arms around Alastair. I want to see the light leave his eyes, I want to watch it all.

Ravel: Aro, Alastair is screwed up, this is what he wants.

Aro: HE TOOK MY SISTER AWAY I ONLY KNEW I HAD A SISTER FOR HALF A YEAR!!!

Ravel: Aro! Stop.

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

Aro: A half year....half a year....

Olivia: Where's Alexis? She promised to play with me.

Ravel: *motions for Olivia* Liv...I need to talk to you.

Aro: I'll do it.

Olivia: Why?

Aro: Olivia, you know who Alastair is?

Olivia: Of course.

Aro: Well...Alastair took the form of someone...and...well...he turned Alexis into a toy.

Olivia: *giggles* April Fool's Day is over, Aro!

Ravel: No, *shows her the doll* he's not lying.

Olivia: *screams* NO NO NO!!! *starts hyperventilating* Not Lexi Not Lexi no no no!!!

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

*after a while slowly walks the lake, trying to focus* He took my child. What person would do that? To harm a child....*sighs* I need to help her.

Aro: Christopher cant know.

Olivia: Lexi...Lexi...

Aro: I know. I know, little one.

Olvia: Alice needs to suffer.

Noelle said...

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

You do realize at this time he wont answer you? Good.

Noelle said...

Besides, even if he doesn't that doesn't change the fact that he's pretty ace.

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

Noelle said...

Man, I need to go write some more fanfics to post somewhere. Gtg!

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

*nods* I was surprised, even fully aware of the fact he planned to do it. I mean even Em was like woah when did that happen. I mean he said this when I went to Hersey well it was the hockey game night then i waited all weekend and then now. Damn he can surprise people.

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

Yeah, the twist was cool.

[hugs Adra] Bye, and good luck!

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

It was :D I think it went well. I want to read reactions in the morning, so I'm gonna laugh. Thats why I wrote Zaf's reactions to it all. I'm hoping to see Star's reaction before church.

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

Hi Snow. :-)

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

Or not...

Snow said...

Every school holidays I set myself a challange. Something wild and crazy and different. Normally, it has to do with remembering. Last holidays, I started memorizing pi, another time I memorised the second verse to the Australian Anthem. But this holidays, I am going to remember this/

Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio: a fellow
of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy: he hath
borne me on his back a thousand times; and now, how
abhorred in my imagination it is! my gorge rims at
it. Here hung those lips that I have kissed I know
not how oft. Where be your gibes now? your
gambols? your songs? your flashes of merriment,
that were wont to set the table on a roar? Not one
now, to mock your own grinning? quite chap-fallen?
Now get you to my lady's chamber, and tell her, let
her paint an inch thick, to this favour she must
come; make her laugh at that.


Dont ask me why. I dont know. I've wanted to for a while now, and when tia posted it the other noght, it just made me want to more. So, wish me luck!

I'm good. I'm thinking of doing a proper plotline RP today where I control Blake until he comes on, but I'm not sure if he'll be annoyed or not.

Chione Asahina said...

((stuff it, i'll do it anyway))

*wakes up beside Blake on the bed a smiles*
*kisses him on the forehead and gets up*
*goes to the bathroom and gets ready*
*goes downstairs and makes herself a drink of Orange juice*

You look beautiful as ever, niece.

*quickly turns around and drops the glass*

Hades...

Hades: You look so shocked to see me, niece. You should have known I would have came to visit eventually. How is Erebus?

None of your business.

Hades: Oh it is. It seems you've...turned him a bit human. And look at you. Still looking like a goddess, but acting like a normal human. I pitty you.

Uilliam Kinsella said...

Hey guys

Chione Asahina said...

and*

There is nothing to pity. These humans are my friends. They are as great as any god or goddess!

Hades: *laughs* My dear niece...it seems you have been away from Olympus and Hell too long. It's about time I brought you back.

No! I don't want to go back! I'm happy here!

Hades: Exactly my point.
*creats a hand out of shadows and grabs her*

*squirms to get out*
Let me go! I don't want to leave!

Hades: No my niece, you will return. *drags her through a pool of shadows opening on the floor to the underworld*

*screams are muffled by the shadow hand*

*sees Chio isn't beside him*
She must be downstairs already...
*gets up, gets ready then heads downstairs*
*goes into the kitchen and sees the broken glass on the floor*
*starts to panic*
CHIO?!
*looks around the house for her but she's not there*
*goes back to the kitchen and looks around*
*sees the shadows shaking, only visible to Erebus*
No...No...I-it can't be...
*staggers back and rests a hand on the table*
He knows these shadows...he knows this presence...

Hades.

Chione Asahina said...

~In The Underworld~

Hades: *throws her down in front of his throne and creates chains to hold her arms and legs*

No!!!!!!! let me go! Uncle!

Hades: You should never have left. You stupid stupid girl. Falling in love with a stupid boy. No one can control Erebus except maybe Chaos, Gaia and Uranus, not even I. Your lover will die. I will keep you here. He will think he's lost you forever. He will break and Erebus will take over.

That's what you want?! why?! you said no one can control him!

Hades: Because I will be doing him a favour. Because I will be giving him freedom. He will be in debt to me.

He won't do it. You should know him by now. He won't have anyone have anything against him. He'll kill you.

Hades: We'll see. But for now, whilst we wait, I have brought you some...entertainment.

*An army of the dead rise from the ground and come towards her*
*eyes wide, scared, flickering to all the bodies*
No...NO UNCLE STOP!
*screams and shakes the chains wildly to get out as the undead get closer*
NO! DON'T! STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*tears run down her face as they get to her, ripping her dress, biting her, scratching*

Hades: This will be fun. *sits back in his throne with a smug smile on his beautiful face*

Chione Asahina said...

~At Home~

Blake: *sits with his head in his hands, knowing what he must do. Knowing he's only human and only Gods and goddesses can go down to The Underworld without dying*
*looks up, eyes full of hate*
*he tilts his head back and closes his eyes*
*Shadows emit from his body and hoodie*
*when he looks up and opens his eyes again, they're pitch Black*

Erebus: This shall be fun.
*sinks into the floor, down into the Underworld*

~In the Underworld~

Hades: Have I broken you yet?

*looks up, eyes dark, tired, red from the tears*
*mutters* no

Hades: Just give up and I'll send them away, stop fighting me.
*signals for the undead to keep torturing her*

*They bite her legs, arms, neck, face, wherever there is bare skin which is almost everywhere because of what little fabric of her dress remains*
Stop...

Hades: He's not coming for you. You will die down here, so will he. And what's the worst hell? not death, not for you. It's being apart from your love. So, even in death, you will not be together, I will keep you on different sides of the Underworld. That is yours, and his, worst nightmare.

*lets the tears fall again*

Erebus: I wouldn't be too sure about that.

Hades and Chione: *look upwards where Erebus is riding a wave of shadows down to them*

Erebus: *doesn't look at Chione, stares right at Hades*
Let her go

Hades: What? you actually care about this girl? this mess in front of me?

Erebus: She's only a mess because you made her that way.

Hades: How would you know? you haven't looked. Go on. Look.

Erebus: *slowly turns round and looks down at Chione*
*She's covered in blood, her skin almost fully bare, head down*
*looks back round*
And you take pride in this...?

Hades: Well, this is my outcome. I know Blake can see. How does he feel? helpless? She's going to break soon. And I will make him watch.

*the undead start tearing at her skin and she screams*

Hi, Mithria! I think that so far, Chione and Erebus are in the Underworld and Hades is there too, and he doesn't particularly like either of them, so yah.

Chione Asahina said...

Erebus: You don't want to do that.

Hades: Oh I do. Secretly you want me too as well. You want to be free. You want rid of Blake so you can walk around, forever. The silly little boy who's spell went wrong, was it?

Erebus: Yeah sure, Blake is an idiot sometimes. But you really shouldn't mess with the only person he loves.

Hades: Oh good. The only person? That will make this so much sweeter.
*walks to her, grabs her hair and forces her to look at him*
Such a pretty face...
*kisses her*

Erebus: *anger rises and clentches his fists*

*spits on him*

Hades: Don't dare! *slaps her across the face so she falls to the ground*

Erebus: *grabs his hand so he can't do any more*
I said let her go

Hades: So you do care. Look at the anger in your eyes. Is that Blake or do you yourself care for this girl? hmm?

Erebus: *looks at her and his grip on Hades's hand tightens*

Hades: Ah. There is my answer then.

Erebus: *punches him in the face*

Hades: I suppose the girl was right. You won't let him go...will you? why do you stay trapped in there?

Erebus: *ignores his question, grabs his collar, picks him up and repeatedly punches him in the face*

Hades: Does it hurt to know she doesn't love you? that she only loves him? do you feel her touch, her kiss along with Blake and realise it's not meant for you?

Erebus: stop... *kicks him in the ribs over and over*

Hades: *raises his arms and the chains raise up, holding Chione in mid-air*

Erebus: Let her down.

Hades: My pleasure. *spits out blood and lets his hands down and the chains disappear, she falls towards the ground*

Erebus: *runs to catch her*

Hades: *jumps on him*

Erebus: *sends a wave of shadows to the place where she will fall to catch her and continues punching hades*

Erebus: I don't need her love. Blake does. I do feel her kiss, I do feel how much Blake loves her, yearns for her, even now, he wants to burst out of my chest and run to her. I'm not that much of a cruel person... to...get in the way of their love...

Hades: Aww poor you. You had someone didn't you? someone you love? someone who was taken from you. Who was it? I could bring them to you. I could let you live on with her in The Underworld

Erebus: No... don't use her against me! I will not be your slave! I am meant to live in Darkness... that's who I am... That's not who Blake is.
*walks over to Chione and gently picks her up*
Don't try and take her again. I won't hold back.
*rises upwards on a wave of shadows*

(Sorry for poofing, lunch. And I might soon disappear...)

Chione Asahina said...

~back in the house~

Erebus: *rises out of the floor in their bedroom and places her down softly onto the bed*
*sits beside her, not knowing what to do*
*She moans slightly and turns towards him*
*he flinches back to his standing position*
*leans down and kisses her forehead*
I'm sorry...

*the shadows disappear and Blake is left standing, watching over her*

Blake: Chio! *kneels beside the bed and gently reaches out to touch her face and run his hand through her hair*
*sighs with relief and rests his head beside hers*
...I love you...

((THE END))

(Chio, that was... hm... epic! Yeah, that's what it was.)

((lol thank you Mithria. It was only a short one, it probs would have been longer if it was actually Blake and I might have messed up some Erebus stuff there, I hope he's not angry))

(Sorry for not knowing but... Erebos is a greek god, isn't he?)

OHMYGOSH
That was beautiful, Chione.
And also a bit violent at places, but beautiful!

Anonymous said...

And Mithria, I think Erebus is basically the Underworld's guard dog.
I think...

(I think I'll have to learn all those things again. I wonder if the english names of the greek gods are different to their german names...)

Chione Asahina said...

((Tell me their German names and what their god/goddess of in English. I'll tell you if they're the same.))

Star Inkbright said...

GREAT ROLEPLAY, CHI!!!!!!! :) *hugs*


@Mith: They should be the same, as they're Greek - the pronunciation of the words is dissimilar to how words generally are pronounced in English.

Sorry, not really here . . . D:

*walks in*
*hugs Chi*
Sorry. And thank you.

Anonymous said...

(My problem is that I don't know exactly how to explain... I simply don't have enought words... But I'll try. Zeus is "the boss". Hera is his wife. Hephaistos is some sort of smith. Ares is god of war. Artemis is goddess of hunting. Aphrodite is goddess of love and beauty. Dyonisos is god of... uh... wine. Poseidon is god of the sea. And so on...^^)

Chione Asahina said...

((They're all the same. ^.^

((TECHNICLY Erebus is a primordial god, one of the children of Chaos. He along with Gaia, Tartarus, Nyx, and Eros were the second batch of things to exist.))

John said...

Also hello everyone, how's things?
Great RP Chio, but Erebus totally would have taken that chance and killed you, Hades, and pretty much everything else

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

Bye Mir.

@star sorry and thank you to you too. To both of you.*hugs Chi and star*

Chione Asahina said...

((Bye Mithria!

*Tacklehugs Blake* Hey ^.^))

#ChaseForBookNine

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

Same to you Blake. Sorry and thank you. However i won't hug you because you don't like hugs.

John said...

Hey cutie
*Hugs Chio*
So are you trying to turn everyone else here into Greek geeks as well? Sounds good to me

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

Hey Snow

Chione Asahina said...

*looks around shocked* Of course not!
*smiles at him*

John said...

Oh come on Silente, I've softened up a bit since I first got here
*Pulls her into the hug with him and Chio*

Snow said...

I am already a Greek Geek. I loooove greece. Well, ancient greece. When we did it in history last year, I got A's on everything. :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Star Inkbright said...

I have to decide on which poems I'm going to write about in my assessment now.
Help.

I don't think Hunter and Ez would want to be Greek gods.
I'm pretty sure they wouldn't like that.

John said...

We've only got like 190 posts left! D:

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

Now now if you do that you might break a nail and you wouldn't want that now would you.

John said...

Awwww, Chio ^-^
*Hugs* love you

Snow said...

*flicks Star* you should join Quotev. It is exactly the type of site you would love.

John said...

Oh hey Zaf, go blow something up and you'll feel better

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

*explodes Alastair*

Chione Asahina said...

NOT Scotland. Or Blogland.

Snow said...

*pokes zaf*

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

MORNING ZAF!
*hands her coffee an dynamite*

Why of course not Blake! Me? Challenge you? Never! *grins*

Chione Asahina said...

Good Zaffy.

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

PS Blake its the wrap around blog next.

Chione Asahina said...

PS - We actually have quite a lot to fill up now. We might not have to go back to 2012 for a while.

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

PS Yey!

Snow said...

Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio: a fellow
of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy: he hath
borne me on his back a thousand times; and now, how
abhorred in my imagination it is! my gorge rims at
it. Here hung those lips that I have kissed I know
not how oft. Where be your gibes now? your
gambols? your songs? your flashes of merriment,
that were wont to set the table on a roar? Not one
now, to mock your own grinning? quite chap-fallen?
Now get you to my lady's chamber, and tell her, let
her paint an inch thick, to this favour she must
come; make her laugh at that.

John said...

I dunno Silente, every now and then I think you might be dumb enough.
*Grins back innocently*

Chione Asahina said...

*sighs and sits ontop of the house, ready to watch*

Chione Asahina said...

*shakes her head* Innocently... Innocently he says.

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

Dumb? Oh Blake challenging you is fun, not dumb. Calling Chi weak, that's pretty dumb as I found out. Hey speaking of challenges have you two actually fought side by side against something yet?

Star Inkbright said...

@Snow: It would take up more of my time, though.

#ChaseForBookNine

John said...

Well whenever Erebus gets out I try my best to fight him in our subconscious so does that count?

John said...

And while it wasn't really fighting we've worked together to restrain you when you turn.

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

No I mean physically as well as mentally.

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

Yeah well that's not fighting that's just working together to protect everyone due to a bad turn of events.

John said...

Then no Ms. Picky we have not fought together against someone or something.

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

Huh. That's quite surprising really. Mind you both of you have become more tame and calm now..

Chione Asahina said...

*dangles her feet over the side, laughing at them fighting*

Aren't you Chi? All tame and calm now. Not s evil or crazy or scary.

John said...

*Looks confuzledly at Silente*
You're really going to make her angry?

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

No. Just asking her opinion.
*grins at him*

Chione Asahina said...

It's fine Blakey boo. ^.^ I don't mind. I'm a happy soul. Human, as Hades described me. If I go back to acting like a Goddess, like everyone is below me, you wouldn't get the chance to put up much of a fight.
