The Year of the Requiem

Ladies and gentlemen...

When I start writing Book 9, I had a title in mind. And it was a good title. It was a glorious title. It echoed a phrase we'd already seen in the books themselves, and it was cool, and haunting, and awesome...

But for some reason, it wasn't a "Final Book" title.

I don't know why. Some titles suit the last book of a series. Some suit the first. This title — my lovely, glorious title — suited the first.

I'm not going to tell you what it was, because I do plan to use it at some stage — and I never let a good idea go to waste.

But suddenly I had a problem. I needed a new title.

I needed a new title that sounded like a final book. I needed a new title that fit alongside Kingdom of the Wicked and Last Stand of Dead Men. I needed something almost... poetic.

And so I came up with this.

Do what you can Trip. Hopefully nothing else eventful happens with my past custome-

*texts to sanctuary agents; second h-bomb attack. Also failed. Against English Sanctuary. Be on high alert. Lead on weapon supplier. Small girl. Silver hair, blue eyes possibly blue wings*

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

*crows softly, waiting to see if she recgonizes him*

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

Well then. *sends out a text*

Girl dead, facility destroyed. Keep eyes open.

((Trip, I've been meaning to ask you, what sort of files would the spotters have on Fabi? It rather affects something I'm writing, and I didn't want to just decide something, since the spotters are your invention.))

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

*sends out a follow up* The explosion was AWESOME.

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

*flies off her shoulder, landing on the ground and shifts back into self* Hello, Star.

#ChaseForBook9

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

Trip..if one of them attacks the american sanctuary or even comes from there and Zaf finds out its me...she'll know I'm not dead.

Star Inkbright said...

YOUR PROFILE PICTURE IS SO BEAUTIFUL, LANTERN. :)

I JUST LOVE LOOKING AT IT. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

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

((Probably just about everything that's ever happened to her. They tend to be very well kept.))

gtg, bye!

Star Inkbright said...

Star: *frowns, unsure whether it's Niccolò or . . . or him*

#ChaseForBookNine

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

Where's your logic there, kid? She'll know anyway.

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

((Silente, Zafira would end up killing you painfully.))

#ChaseForBook9

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

I am myself, not Alastair.

#ChaseForBook9

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

((Well, not quite everything, but you know what I mean. She is a potential threat/ally.))

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

((Bye then trip!))

*sits and worries*
Please don't bomb america. Please don't bomb america. Don't screw me over like this. Please please please...

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

((Yey. Painful death. Great.))

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

((Thank you, Star. [hugs]))

((I thought you might say that. This complicates things. -_-))

Star Inkbright said...

Star: Oh. *nods warily, still suspecting a trap, but she's relieved* Oh. Oh, that's good. Er . . . how are you?

#ChaseForBookNine

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

*another two texts come through*
*text one; girl dead. Keep an eye out for dangers.*
*text two; h-bomb intersected before set up a couple of miles from american sanctuary. Illegal weapon. Memory wiped again. Possibly the same girl.*

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

I am fine. *winces, too fast for her to notice* I am quite well considering the time I spent under Alastair's control.

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

((I'll figure something out. There are a couple bits that need to be missing, but I think I can make it work without an unrealistic information blank spot.))

((Anyway, bye Trip.))

((Hello, everyone else.))

((Wbveryd.))

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

((Hey very distant Fabi. How are you?))

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

((Hello, Fabi.))

#ChaseForBook9

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

*looks at Nic*
What do those text you just got say?

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

They talk of another bombing, and a description of someone to be on the lookout for.

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

OKAY GUYS

A2 OR A3?

#ChaseForBookNine

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

Another bombing? Where this time?
*closes her eyes*
*mentally repeats please not america please not america. For the love of god not america*

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

((I will be back in a few minutes. My apologizes.))

#ChaseForBook9

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

What for Star?

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

((Okay zafolò))

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

((I am, and I don't particularly have a how.))

((Hello Silente, Croatoan.))

((A2, Star, by flip of coin.))

Star Inkbright said...

Zafolo. :)
I like that. :)
(Not exactly able to easily create the accent though. :P)

@Silente: My next word art project. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

Okay, Zafolo. :)

Oh, gosh, I forgot you were Zaf again. *laughs*

@Lantern: Okay. :) Thanks.

Hunter's always heads and Ez is always tails . . . :)

#ChaseForBookNine

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

Hmm in that case...A3. Its smaller and therefore will take less time. Which means your less likely to get bored of it or give up. It also means there's less time for you to get stressed over how it looks. And because A2 is too big. It means having to find somewhere to keep it where it won't get messy or creased or in the way. A3

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

I HAVE A SONG IN MY HEAD!

THATS ALL YOU HAVE, TO ENDURE. ALL THE TOTAL DICKS. ALL THE STUCK UP CHICKS! SO SUPERFICAL SO IMMATURE! THE WHOLE DAMN WORLD IS JUST AS OBSESSED WITH WHOS THE BEST DRESED AND WHOS HAVING SEX!...

GET OU OF MY HEAD!

Star Inkbright said...

@Silente: *laughs* :)
A few people seem to favour the 'take less time' route. :P

Thanks, Silente . . . :) They're good reasons.

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

@Silente: I HATE CATCHY SONGS! D:

#ChaseForBookNine

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

I hate when you have more than one song in your head so they either merge together or try to play over each other and end up being really noisy in your mind. That happens so often with me.

Star Inkbright said...

@Silente: That doesn't happen to me . . . I have a really one-track mind, though, so. D:

#ChaseForBookNine

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

Great. A another songs joined in. Now I have:
I'm such a fool I can't be free (don't have to be afraid) no escape from the storm inside of me (we can work this out together) I can't control the curse! (Well reverse the storm you've made) oh oh oh oh Anna please you'll only make it worse! Etc AS WELL AS THEN WHEN YOU GRADUATE YOU TAKE A LOOK AROUND AND YOU SAY HEY WAIT, THIS IS THE SAME AS WHERE I JUST CAME FROM I THOUGHT IT WAS OVER OH THATS JUST GREAT.

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

Oh is that just me? Well I always knew I was 'special'

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

Star, are you shipping Zafira with me?

#ChaseForBook9

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

((Wb zafolo))

Star Inkbright said...

@Silente: I can't even read comments whilst people are talking to me; I start ceasing to hear what the person is saying, even if I'm just kind of scanning. :P
You're probably perfectly normal. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

Star: . . . No.
But if I was, that would be your ship name.
IF I was.
Which I'm not.
Obviously.

#ChaseForBookNine

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

Please normal couldn't touch me even if it had a 59 foot fish!

Star Inkbright said...

@Silente: *laughs* XD
Probably true, but WHO NEEDS NORMAL ANYWAY. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

@Silente: *laughs* XD
Probably true, but WHO NEEDS NORMAL ANYWAY. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

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

(Not us! Normal took a look at us and went "nope. Nuh huh not happenin bro. Not even going there. That if it was that or death" and ran away screaming as if the kittens of hell were bounding after him.)

Another bombing? Where this time? Does it say Nic?
*closes her eyes*
*mentally repeats please not america please not america. For the love of god not america*

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

England. *smirks* If it were America, I would have told you when I recieved the message.

#ChaseForBook9

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

((What about these from earlier? *another two texts come through*
*text one; girl dead. Keep an eye out for dangers.*
*text two; h-bomb intersected before set up a couple of miles from american sanctuary. Illegal weapon. Memory wiped again. Possibly the same girl.*))

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

((I must have overlooked those, my apologizes.))

*sighs* Somewhere in America, the memory wiped, the girl they spoke of is dead. He told them you are dead, so when Zafira or Ravel do come back, we can say I revived you.

#ChaseForBook9

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

Yeah. Okay. Great. Of course. Sure. Perfect. Why did they have to try America!
*storms of to her tree house*
*comes back with a bottle of vodka*
*begins downing it*

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

Simple reason, Zafira is abroad, Aretha is most likely dead. Two of the three Elders are not in the country, wouldn't you attack if you were a criminal? America is large, Zafira is not very popular internationally. That is why.

#ChaseForBook9

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

*stops drinking a second*
It was a rhetorical question.
*continues downing the vodka*

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

*takes the vodka bottle away* Don't drink that. I do not need a drunk vampire trying to kill me at sunset.

#ChaseForBook9

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

*reaches for the half empty bottle*
Nic! Give me the vodka! I won't attack you. I'm just trying to get drunk enough that when Zaf comes to kill me it won't hurt as much!

Star Inkbright said...

((Hunter would say that alcohol was not the solution.
Then again, he's probably just jealous. :P))

((Sorry, poofed a bit. D:))

#ChaseForBookNine

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

((That's fine star. And hunter is jealous although he won't admit it))

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

Did you not listen to me? I will speak with her, I will make her understand. Do you really think I actually like killing people?

#ChaseForBook9

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

I know you don't Nic. But she nearly got her sanctuary, her whole country in fact, blown up BECAUSE OF ME. If we had our places swapped I'd be pretty pissed. I'd at least throw them in a cell and leave them there. I'm meant to be her friend. What kind of a friend does that.

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

A person who really messed up. Then again, I have been there. Look Silente, you need to stop getting yourself drunk and assuming she will kill you. Zafira may not even know, or find out. The way you are acting, it is like you murdered her entire family.

#ChaseForBook9

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

Does her family live in America? Because if so I nearly got her family killed. And she's that grand mage of america, I'm fairy certain she knows.
*sighs*
I'm sorry. I shouldn't be arguing with you. I'm just worried. I screwed up, again, and I don't know what's going to happen. I shouldn't be taking it out on you,

Star Inkbright said...

*watching, btw O_O*

*this is interesting :)*
*in many aspects*

@Silente: I think he will admit it.
It's strange, how out of all the wonderful drugs there are, all the medicines, all the painkillers . . . it's the fact they can't have alcohol that gets etherdemons down. :P

#ChaseForBookNine

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

They live in Blogland. As for arguing with me, you did not do anything wrong. If you really are that afraid, you're wrong about her killing you.

#ChaseForBook9

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

What about prison? A bound cell? No more freedom? Is that what's in store for me?

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

I never said that. Silente, for all you know Zafira may not even care.

#ChaseForBook9

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

May not. May not care that I supplied people with h-bomb resulting in three sanctuary's nearly being destroyed one of which was hers. Sure.
*walks to her tree house*
*goes inside*
*comes back out wearing warmer boots a thick coat and a large backpack*
*starts walking away from the clearing*

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

*follows* Running away won't solve it either, Silente. Would you like me to just tell you? She knows, she knows it was you, she didn't even flinch. She didn't even order a thing. You do realize I told her everything? She believes Aretha did, but that is better left to her to figure out it was me. You sound exactly like myself, afraid.

#ChaseForBook9

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

*stops*
She already knows?
*looks slightly confused as to why she isn't in a jail cell*
Then why...?
*shakes her head*
So she hasn't given the order yet. That doesn't mean she wont..
*look uncertain and a little scared*

Star Inkbright said...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZ3KlvKlhI8&list=PLTslNdjmKxFtDwh1k3FIRyXuARLNTj9fJ

still fucking beautiful

#ChaseForBookNine

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

Which is to be said, she will not give the order. She said *glances at the phone for a second* "If Silente did it, the best punishment is for her to believe I will murder her. I will not condemn her unless someone dies." *sighs* Now, will you please stop moping?

#ChaseForBook9

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

So she's not going to kill me? Not unless someone get hurt? I don't need to run?
*drops her bag and hugs Niccolò*
Thank you.

Star Inkbright said...

YAY! :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

How to feel good:

Part 0: Home alone.

Part 1: Finished re-reading LSODM.

Part 2: Mother returns home drunk.

Part 3: Mother complains at me for not opening the door, even after calling, which she did not as she somehow managed to lose the phone.

Part 4: Mother starts swearing at me for not being able to find the toothbrush and toothpaste so she can call father.

Part 5: Mother falls down stairs and injures herself.












Feeling so good right now.

How are you guys doing?

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

Better. Better no. :-)
You okay? Parental trouble is hard. :-/

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

**now

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Hard?

Not getting drunk off your face is not hard.

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Stupid parents.

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

I mean dealing with parental problems are hard.

Star Inkbright said...

@Tia: :( I'm sorry.

#ChaseForBookNine

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

As in dealing with drunk and annoying parents who have reached that stage of drunk where they turn abusive.

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Yeah, I understand, Silente, I'm just angry.

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

I know you are. Its okay :-)

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

Of course. *steps away after a few seconds of the hug*

Hello, Taia.

#ChaseForBook9

said...

*hugs Tia to his broad chest*
*makes soothing noises*
Its okay. Its okay.

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Hello guys, and sorry for just bitching as I am, but hey, I'm not even sure what to feel - I feel betrayed.

But you guys make it all better :')

*hugs Friendship Manuel and pulls everyone into the hug*

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

Hello, Friendship.

#ChaseForBook9

said...

Hello Niccolò how are you?

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

I am fine. I do not believe we have met before.

#ChaseForBook9

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

*squirms out of Tia's hug*
Good to know we help!
*smiles at her*

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

*whispers to Niccolò* I'm pleased to meet you, I do not remember meeting you before, I am me, though my OC is Tia Halcyon the Warrior Chronomancer.

Star Inkbright said...

*hugs Tia* :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

*and Friendship Manuel, of course :P*

#ChaseForBookNine

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

So, Silente, how are things? I have school tomorrow and all the things that brings:

Stress.
Worrying about exams.
Actual exams.
PPost-exam stress.
Death.

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

Nice to meet you, Taia. I am Niccolò Croatoan, though you've probably read comments from me under the name of Alastair Cruciatus.

#ChaseForBook9

said...

*nods at Niccolò*
In a way you have. Just like Clara has her characters so to does Silente. I am one of them.

((Sorry if I take a while to answer things I keep switching account and it takes time and stuff!))

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

*hugs Star*

*but not Ez or Hunter*

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

Very well then, Friendship.

#ChaseForBook9

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

I think the fact that we even have Friendship Manuel is amazing. Should probably be an OC in the SP world who helps people.

Star Inkbright said...

Ez and Hunter aren't here at the mo, anyway. :)

Friendship Manuel is glorious. :)

Ah, I used to have separate profiles for Hunter and Ez, but we got lazy. :P

#ChaseForBookNine

said...

((Okay Silente is now just the brackets, its less time consuming!))

Why thank you Tia. However I am simply a mage like you. There isn't anything special about me. Every person has the same value, no matter what they have done or what they can do. We are all of the same worth.

Dragona Pine said...

Hello my dog is being noisy again.

I have force stopped my keyboard giving me temporary release from autocorrect.

Also, when you're writing a story about a character's past, it's rather hard to make it seem much of a threat - because the reader knows they'll survive for the actual story itself.

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

What is your discipline, Friendship?

#ChaseForBook9

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

Hello, Dragona.

#ChaseForBook9

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Hey, Dragona!

What are your favourite Mass Effect romances/ships?

said...

I deal with the workings of the mind Niccolò. Reading, influencing, controlling, helping. I felt it was more peaceful and better suited my phycology much like my brothers discipline suits his jobb mine suits my purpose. And hello dragona. I trust all is well?

((Hey dragona!))

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

Ah, another Sensitive. I have met two others in my time here, Alexis and Aro. All three of you are very different.

#ChaseForBook9

said...

Everyone is different from each other Niccolò. No one is ever the same. It is nice to meet you.
*holds out a muscular hand*

Dragona Pine said...

Tia: I've only ever romanced Tali. And that was when I was playing as paragon male Shepard. Every other time I've never romanced anyone on ME, because yeah. My renegade female Shepard would never romance anyone, since she's just focused on getting the job done and saying awesome stuff. One things for certain though, I'm sure as hell killing Kaidan in ME3.

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

*shakes his hand* I know, I have many disciplinea but they are not all the same.

#ChaseForBook9

said...

I've heard. Your name is very well known Mr Croatoan. They tell stories of you back at home.

Dragona Pine said...

I didn't actually play Mass Effect today since I was playing Battlefield 4 with my friends.
The class I use most is the recon. I have a sniper with no scope (because I can), a P226 pistol, some motion sensors, a grenade, and some C4.
It's so messed up but it works.

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

That is news to me, I make sure no person knows of my exisistace, besides the people of Blogland. To be honest, until I met Aretha, nobody knew I existed. Where are you from?

#ChaseForBook9

said...

Texas. I lived there with my mother and my brother. At least I did until he went slightly wrong in the head and ran off. That's part of why I chose my discipline, so when I find him I can help him. I know his name and his job but I can never find his whereabouts.

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

I've been to America before, but I do not think I left that big of an impression. I didn't make a famine over there, now Ireland...different story. *goes quiet at the thought of what he did to the Irish*

#ChaseForBook9

Dragona Pine said...

I used to have some binoculars and was like "why the frig do I have binoculars in a shooting game?"
So I watched a building collapse through them from a safe distance. The explosion looked cool in thermal vision.

said...

*lays a strong hand on Nick's shoulder*
Everyone has their demons and everyone makes mistakes. The important thing is to learn from them and to over come them one by one. I'm sureyyou're not the same person you where back then. Not really.
*smiles down at him*

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

*Friendship's hand passes through my shoulder* Yes, I doubt many of us are the same. Then again- *stops self* *vanishes* *reappears a few minutes later* My apologizes for that.

#ChaseForBook9

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Dragona?

said...

Its fine Nic.
*returns hand to his side*
Anyway, I'm afraid I must leave. Its getting late in England and Silente is getting tired.
*smiles and bow*
I bid you, a due.

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

Good night, Friendship and Silente.

#ChaseForBook9

Dragona Pine said...

Tia, I answered.

Dragona Pine said...

Before I started ranting about binoculars.

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

Yeah bye people! See you again real soon hopefully! Nic, tell Zaf I say sorry and thank you. And give her a hug for me. I owe her.
*waves*
*disappears into some randomly appearing fog*

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Good night, Manuel!

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

When will she figure out that I do not hug people?

#ChaseForBook9

Dragona Pine said...

Niccolò, I'm not sure.

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

If you're feeling like you need cheap kills, but consider yourself above the average shotgun user, try this:

MTAR-21 - a powerful carbine

(no barrel attachment)

(no underslung attachment)

(grip for 15% extra aimed accuracy)

Magnum .44 (with 4x scope) - a pocket sniper, will kill any enemy with a headshot.

I prefer to carry a small medpack because I can pick it up and charge at the enemy rather than the full medpack which is more for holding a position and healing, but choose the one more relevant to your map/gamemode.

Grenade launcher (paired with impact grenades) - blow up walls, blow up people behind doorways.

Offensive bonus - this is the one where you easily get a 10% sprint bonus.



(I also love the UMP.45 and defibs, but defibs encourage me to heal people, often ending in my own death. I avoid temptation by simply supporting my team by keeping enemies away from them/pushing to an objective)

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

One day, she may. Perhaps.

#ChaseForBook9

Dragona Pine said...

Tia, I prefer to sit back and watch. Use the motion sensors, one to protect myself (for if anyone is approaching my location), the other in a choke point. Then I pick people off at medium range, knife or pistol at CQC, and I also have wherever I sit (or, in most cases, where the motion sensors are) rigged with C4 so as soon as I see someone there, I can explode them. Or just drop on to the back of tanks and throw C4 at them.
I'm not a big fan of shotguns because they rely too much on close range. That's why I made my sniper have just iron sights so it was more suitable for all ranges rather than just long.

Earlier I went on a knifing spree. A guy was hiding behind a wall with a rocket launcher so I climbed up a ladder and dropped behind him and stabbed him in the back. I then counter knifed a guy who tried to knife me, went fully up a ladder and stabbed a sniper who was laying down... I must have got easily 10 kills without dying with the knife.

Dragona Pine said...

I have to go now. Bye!

I'm watching Horrible Histories right now, and Mark Gatiss is in it! Haha, when I first saw it, I laughed so hard!

Last year, the best holiday of the year was the Christmas holidays.
They were just so fantastic. I mean, nothing much really happened, but it was just so . . . nice.
The year before that, the best holidays were February half term. That was the holiday I first became strongly attached to Blogland, and it was just so new and exciting and I enjoyed it so much. :)
This year, I do believe the best holidays are the Easter ones, the ones I'm in the middle of now.
My life is just filled with writing and artwork and roleplaying and talking to awesome people online, and I swear, it's fantastic.
This, people, if pretty much the definition of happiness. *nods*

I remember Sports Day last year. Me and C spent an hour and a half lying on our backs staring at this tree, because it looked rather wonderful to just stare at it. And, um, I was drawing it.
*points to rainbow tree on my word art blog*
I always meant to develop the drawing, but I only ever got round to one recreation of it . . .
And we were talking, anyway. I can't entirely remember what we talked about, but it was things meaningful and metaphorical that most people just don't GET in the same way, and I remember, near the end, that C said that we had to remember this day for the rest of our lives, so when we were old we could look back on it.
Although details are dimmed, I remember it, and I hope I never forget it.
I hope I'll remember these holidays in the same way, but I know I probably won't. :)
Either way . . .
*hugs everyone*
Thank you for making my life beautiful. :)

You little shit Derek. You have no soul. I bet you based Ravel on yourself. That's how bad you are. You know, I read a fan fiction where Tanith's soul was used for the accelerator and the remnant was torn out of her, and I felt happy, for the first time since September. Then I watched the video, and every inch of happiness I felt went and died in a hole.

Ah, Rueben! I saw that too!!!

It's nice to see that Mark Gatiss can still get imployment between the Sherlock seasons.

Star Inkbright said...

@Duck: Well, Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman managed to get into The Hobbit, so . . . :P

HEY STAR! How are you?

Star Inkbright said...

HEY SILENTE! :)
Happy. :) I should probably find something to do, though. XD You?

#ChaseForBookNine

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

Great! Little worried about my orphodontists appointment later today and should really be doing the homework I was given a week ago...eh homework can wait.

Star Inkbright said...

@Silente: Yeahhhhhh . . . XD I have loads of homework and revision and stuff that is just being ignoreddddddddd . . . :P

And - :( Orthodontic treatment sucks . . . it'll probably be fine, though. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

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

Yeah. Im just going to be told if I need braces or not and if its urgent or not. The problem is if I do need them I'm going to be that one kid who gets the on when everyone else has just had them taken off :-(

Homework is used to being ignored. I'll probably do it all on the very last day.

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

You guys - I have school but you can relax :)

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

Aww school sucks! I forgot you started a week early and so go back a week early :-)

Star Inkbright said...

@Silente: Aw . . . :(

I'm fifteen, and I've already had all my orthodontic treatment finished, but my friend is only just getting twin blocks now, so she'll probably be finished with all that braces/retainer nonsense when she's like seventeen. :O
If that makes you feel better. :P

@Tia: Aw. :( Poor you.

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

(In FACT, she's getting her twin blocks over Easter.
Heh.
Fun. :P
Not.)

(Braces are much better than retainers, anyway, Silente. :))

#ChaseForBookNine

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

I'm only fourteen, I turn 15 this year. It won't be as bad if I'm considered 'urgent' because then you don't go on the waiting list. Basically I'm hoping its either urgent or unnecessary. Preferably unnecessary but that's basically impossible. We knew I'd need braces the day I was born because of my cleft pallet.

Star Inkbright said...

@Silente: :(

HEY
OKAY, SO MY PHONE WAS ASLEEP AND IT WAS LYING NEXT TO ME WHILST I TYPE, AND SUDDENLY MY MUSIC JUST TURNED ON.
O_O

??????

Yeah, sorry. DISTRACTIONS.

Um . . .

Well, if it's that obvious you'd need braces, it seems pretty leaning towards urgent, I think . . . I mean, other people get braces because they have teeth that overlap a bit. Overlapping doesn't seem that big of a problem to me, so . . . yeah. You'd be more urgent than them, I'm guessing . . . ?

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

Then again, maybe overlapping teeth is more serious than I know. I'm not a dentist. :P

#ChaseForBookNine

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Dentists R Us

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

No my teeth don't seem that bad to me. I mean its a bit crowded at the front especially on the top row and a few bottom teeth have turned sideways but then again my dentist seems pretty certain I'll need some. And the reason they were that certain was due to past experiences of kids with clefts having to get braces.

AND THEY'RE ALREADY MAKING A MOVIE OF IT!

(Haa.)

Star Inkbright said...

@Silente: :(
I had to get braces for overcrowding . . .
(because a couple of my premolars on my bottom jaw don't have adult teeth to grow into them, so they could either remove them or leave them in, and they left them in, but because the baby teeth are larger than the adult teeth it's a tad crowded so I needed braces. Apparently, my baby teeth will fall out when I'm like forty. Funnnn. And before that, I needed a retainer for my overbite.)
Turned sideways - I think you might need some for them . . . unless they look like they're going to turn around again. I think if they have the space, they might . . . so yeah.
Yeah.

I don't know why everyone has so much dental treatment anyway . . .

#ChaseForBookNine

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

I doubt they're going to turn. They been like this years and I only have one baby tooth left that could possibly change it anyway. I don't understand why its a big deal either. My teeth are fine! They don't hurt, i don't care that they're wonky/overcrowded/facing the wrong way! In fact I'm quite impressed because its basically symmetrical...

Star Inkbright said...

@Silente: :( You'll probably have braces, then . . . sorry. :(
And I know what you mean - it's not like you're going to not use your mouth from having a few teeth out of place, are you? :P

Good morning.

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

Good day Nic.

Mbd looking up cleft palates. Wanna know more about them.

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

Silente, braces are not that bad. You will benefit from them later on in life.

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

((This is Zaf saying: I feel so stupid I can't get the tablet because I got a migraine and I forgot to switch myself back over to myself. So! I shall be Nic until later when I get said tablet working)

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

I'm sure I will. Probably.

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

((Okay zaf!))

Star Inkbright said...

@Zaf: Okay. :) Hi!

*nods* Hello, Niccolò. :)

@Silente: Okay. :)
I'd join you in your research, but I'm going out soon. Msd.

#ChaseForBookNine

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

Hello, Star. Silente, you will benefit, think, you will have nicer teeth when it is done.

#ChaseForBook9

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

@star that's fine, I can do it by myself. Its actually kind of interesting, learning about a deformity I was born with. They don't tell you anything about it really so I only know what I find out myself.

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

'Nicer' teeth. *rolls eyes* yeah. No I know they'll help and in the end I'll be happy I got stuck with them, if I get stuck with them.

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

That seems like a good idea, Silente. If you know a little more information on what you have, it will help you understand it better.

...Hello?

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

And now we've started contemplating if braces pull on the roof of your mouth...if so it might pull on my stitches which could cause some problems...

Hey Lucifer!
