Glory be.
Tom Percival has blessed us with another stunning cover for Armageddon Outta Here, and this time it's something extra-special — a wraparound masterpiece...
We're going to release this as a poster for the bookstores, and we're planning on making it available to you guys too — hopefully along with all the other posters. I'll keep you, ahem, posted...
Heheheheheheh.
Oh, and as for who exactly everyone IS on that cover... you'll just have to read the stories to find out.

«Oldest ‹Older 1201 – 1400 of 4949 Newer› Newest»(Well you weren't letting off easy. I don't have a soul.)
Well that's awkward...how about we rewind?
(Alright, Silente. Blake?)
((Blake...you here? You okay with rewinding?))
((I get the feeling he may have left...))
So...
*turns to Dimitri*
Er...
((I'm struggling to think what to ded to... I was thinking Fairy Tail because of the new episodes but not everyone here watches anime... I want to ded to summer but it's not here yet... *sigh*))
*looks around the living room* Done! Oh wait, music...um...
I think Dimitri poofed too...
*wanders into chi's house*
Hey weaklin' whatcha doin?
Weakling? *laughs* That's good Silente.
And I was just setting up the decorations for our house-warming party. ^.^
Oh decorations. Does the weak little winter gal need help? Wouldn't want her to hurt herself.
*grins*
*her beauty turns murderous*
Be glad we're in the house, Silente.
Come outside then. We haven't played in sooo long. Or do you need you walking stick?
*sticks her tounge out a Chi*
*turns and runs outside*
*stands in the doorway grinning*
*puts on the music loudly, it plays "Monster" By Skillet*
*grins as she slowly walks to the front door*
*creates katana and lunges right into Silente, burying the swords deep into her shoulders*
*licks the blood that splashes onto her face, still grinning* You're right, we haven't fought in a while. I was becoming more of a human.
*grins and pulls herself back*
*ignores the pain ripping through her shoulders*
*turns and runs, climbing up a tree*
*flips and lands behind Chi so she can't get back in the house*
Care full now, wouldn't want you to exert yourself.
*grins and slips out her new sword*
*smiles at the jewel in crusted handles*
*raises her sword and prepares for chi's next attack*
I really wish you didn't jump so much, it's quite annoying.
*turns around and sends a Tsunami of water into her and freezes it*
*walks over and slowly begins hacking of the limbs that are hanging out of the Frozen Wave*
Maybe i'll give these to Adra to nibble on... *throws them to the side*

((I can't delete the second comment...?))
*groans at the pain as tears spring to her eyes*
They were my good arms!
*starts straining her legs making cracks in the ice*
*gets slightly dizzy at the lack of air*
And I like jumping!
*winces as her arm is jarred by her movement*
*looks mornfully at the blood leaving her stumps*
*strains harder against the ice*
*laughs at her* Do you not think I'm better as my Goddess self? *snowflakes fall from the sky and land perfectly in her hair* Bloodthirsty, merciless?
*cuts off her foot which is also sticking out of the ice*
*sends another wave over the Silente-icicle and re-freezes it*
*blinks to clear spots from her eyes*
*groans again in pain*
*blinks and tries to shiver*
Yes...great...
*strains with one leg and her three remaining stumps against the ice surrounding her*
*feels it crack as tears blur her vision*
*more spots appear before her eyes due to good loss and oxygen deprivation*
*straines harder causing the ice to crack more and allow some air to her*
*takes a deep breath in*
*blinks to clear her eyes and keeps straining*
**blood
*creates a throne of ice and watches her*
*creates some ice-cream and licks it slowly, enjoying her little show*
*strains harder know in if she doesn't stop herself bleeding she wouldn't be herself much longer*
*blinks trying to clear the tears from her eyes*
*pauses and slouches breathing heavily*
*shakes her head and strains more*
*makes a small gap just big enough for her to squeeze out of*
*hops towards to gap forcing herself through it*
*lands heavily on the floor on her back*
*grins, highly amused by the little Vampire crawling through the dirt with tears in her eyes*
Oh look at that, she got out of it... Looks like i'll need to hurt her again *finishes her ice-cream*
*hits her cut-off limbs with a warhammer, turning them to mush and the blood splatters everywhere*
*Dashes out of a shadow, grabbing the warhammer and snapping it in two*
*The voice of Erebus mixes with my own* Enough! Chione look at what you're doing.
Yes, I can see perfectly what I'm doing. Why are you stopping me? I wasn't going to kill her. You do things like this every day and you dare to stop me from doing the same? Pretty twisted don't you think? *looks down on the mangled Vampire and walks back to the house, dress stained with blood*
*screams in pain as the hammer comes down*
*tears spring to her eyes as she curls up tight*
*whimpers and tries to drag herself behind Blake*
*gives up and just cowers between them curled in a ball*
I don't cut of limbs and have a snack while laughing at my opponent squirm...
Not any more...
True. *Walks into the living room, turns the music off then goes up the stairs and goes in for a shower, washing the blood off*
*sobs hysterically as she losses control of the pain*
*curls up shivering and crying*
*Walks over to Silente, crouching down next to her*
Will you heal?
*pops in*
Actually, Chione, I like the non-goddess-you better. And thanks, Blake! Exactly what I was going to say. Bye, people!
*snaps fingers* *slowly fades away* *until only my grin is left* *kinda like the Cheshire Cat, tbh* *and the grin eventually fades too*
*shrugs weakly*
*whispers* not if the blood doesn't stop. And my limbs won't grow unless I change.
*curls up tighter trying to stop the shaking*
Then you won't be taking your serum tonight, I'll keep you contained.
*Forms som bandages from darkness and begins wrapping up the bleeding stumps*
And she's always on me about almost killing people...
Actually Blake more like I won't be taking the serum now. Its automatic reaction is to take over when I'm suffering from something it can fix. It can be helpful but mainly its not.
*shudders more as pale arms start forming through the dark bandages*
*Hums to herself as she comes out of the shower and dresses herself in a black dress, ready for the party*
*goes downstairs and lays on the couch awaiting guests*
I see
*Removes the bandages and backs away, forming a small cage from shadows*
Don't go escaping, the point here is to heal, not get beat up by me too
*grins calmly at Blake as the phantom limbs become solid, real*
I'll try to keep that in mind. Keep Chi away though. For her safety and mine.
*feels the fangs start ripping through her gums*
Goodbye. See you soon blake
*sighs as the claws rip her skin away revealing the rest of the beast*
*Sits down cross-legged and half closes his eyes, focusing on the strength of the cage*
*decides to make the house look nice from the outside*
*gets up and picks up another set of Fairy lights and heads towards the door*
*snarls and charges the bars heading in the direction of Blake*
*hisses as she meets the darkness*
*charges them again and again trying to batter through them*
((Msd for food in a bit))
*A clone forms in the doorway, preventing Chio from exiting the house*
Clone: Please stay inside until Silente is herself again
Alright. You can put these up then *gives the Fairy Lights to the clone and walks back into the house, her silver/light blue hair at her thighs*
*The clone sets out to decorate*
*A slight sweat begin to break on my forehead*
*Puts more power into the cage*
*growls charging instead at the door way*
*hisses and claws through the bars in the doors direction*
*pushes harder against the bars*
*The bars push back, shoving the vampire into the center of the cage*
Hold still will you...
Damn I cant leave without you fighting
*hisses, narrowing her wide black eyes*
*lunges at the bars again and again*
*growls at the door swiping through the bars before charging at them again*
Hey zaf! How are you?
((Hey Zaffy, it's all Silente's fault))
((Yo Zaf, Chio you're the one who almost killed her))
((Exactly! Don't blame me. I was just messing, your the one who went all HULK SMASH! on me))
((gtg for a while, pretend the cage stays even when I'm gone <-<))
((You pissed me off, you called me weak. *glares*))
((As a joke. Your never weak Chi. Weaker than in winter yes but that's what happens when you focus on one perticular element or season! You didn't need to Hulk Smash. *glares back*))
*charges the bars again and again still trying to break them*
*looks around her empty living room and starts to think no one is coming to the party, sits hugging her knees on the couch*
((Hey its okay. I'll come as soon as bad beast goes bye bye :-) ))
*growls in frustration at the bars holding her back*
*claws at them hissing and snarling*
Sorry Zaffy eating
((That fine zaffy))
Now i finished
((good good))
*is completely alone*
*curls up on the cough tighter into a ball*
*wanders over to Chi* Hey there. What's up?
*shudders and shakes as normal skin begins to regrow*
*hisses as claws become hands*
Fuch! *snarl* no! *growl*
*collapses to the ground as the skin regrows*
*sits up back to her normal self*
Wow it work. That's new.
*looks at arms and new foot*
Better. Now. Cage. That's a small problem..
*shouts*
Zaf! Can you melt this cage away without looking at me so I can go....change..
I set up all the decorations for the house-warming party and no one was here so I kinda got depressed... *looks up*
Okay funny gerbil story.
Yesterday I was cleaning the gerbil cage and finished so I took Snowball out of the gerbil ball and got Coco and had the ball open when Dad accidently set the alarm off. I jump up to shut it but I drop Coco's ball, he's still in it, because this thing is loud. So I come back after answering the phone ect and Coco is sitting on the couch.
Hmm melt? I can try....*closes eyes and summons flame intensifying it and holding it close to the bars*
*puts the radio on and turns it to Capital, turning the volume up so she feels happier as she looks round the empty room*
Zaf!
*jumps back from the flame*
Zaf its a shadow cage! Your a necromance, can't you get rid of it? Please. Its cold without anything covering you up!
*holds one arm over her chest*
Oh okay I can't look at it *sighs and works with the shadows to try to make them move apart*
*stands awkwardly waiting*
*shivers a little at the cold wind*
*keeps trying to form a way out* Now can you?
Yes. Thanks zaf! I'll be back in a minute!
*squeezes through the gap*
*darts of to her true house*
*puts a shimmering silver dress on that matches her hair*
*brushes her hair so its Knott free*
*puts a ribbon in it and slips on some flat bottomed shoes*
*smiles and walks back*
Okay zaf. Lets go cheer up Chi if she's still here.
*starts walking towards chi's house*
**tree
*gets up and goes outside*
*creates a huge ice dragon statue next to the house*
*goes over to Silente and Zafira*
K! *goes over to Chi with Silente*
*hugs Chi*
*whispers in her ear* hey gal.
*steps back*
Cool ice dragon. Very realistic!
Hey Chi
Thank you *bows* I'm glad you could both come. Even if Blake isn't here to greet you too. Welcome to our home *leads them in*
*raises an eyebrow at her bow*
*follows her into the house*
*follows* Ah. Cool house. *looks around, keeping my shadows close*
*stands beside the chocolate fountain table*
Dig in.
Thank you. *has some chocolate*
Oh fountain.
*looks at the fountain*
Thank you very much.
*smiles and gets some*
*swallows*
Its very tasty.
There are all types of fruit and also marshmallows to put in it. *hands them a tub of cocktail sticks to put the fruit onto to dip it in*
*takes one and dips a strawberry in then eats it*
Thank you. *looks a bit uneasy*
*stabs a marshmallow and dips it into the chocolate*
*grins and eats it careful not to drop chocolate anywhere*
Mmmmmm...chocolate.
((brb guys, try to enjoy the party, watching the hobbit, won't be too long.))
Christopher: *wanders in aimlessly
((Watching the hobbit-wont be to long...I thought the hobbit was a long film...or am I thinking of LOTR..probably LOTR.))
*has another chocolate dipped marshmallow*
*smiles and relaxes*
Christopher: Hai
*smiles and waves*
Hey!
*eats a strawberry*
I should stop eating everything..
*eats another strawberry*
Christopher: You eat! *giggles*
Ravel: Christopher....
Christopher: HI!!!
Yes I eat..
*turns to ravel*
*whispers* Why is that funny?
*absently throws a strawberry in the air and catches it in her mouth*
*grins and holds it between her jagged teeth*
*bites down on it and eats it*
((ok I will be long, have another 2 hours or so to go xD seems like you guys are having fun... lol))
*Sits up*
Seems I feel asleep in the midst of holding that cage up. Knew I shouldn't have closed my eyes. Is anyone sill around?
((Zaf poofed on me. Chi's watching the hobbit. I'm watching that which calleth forth the icy goddess in all her evil glory. Aka, no not really. I would be but the signal in my little brothers room is none existent, sorry D: ))
Who here has a character in SP?
Zaf, Ieni, Zath, Nix, Adra, Kal, um . . . maybe some others. :)

*Steals a bite from the marshmallow*

*Talks from his shadow on the floor*
Maybe, but that one looked special
*rolls eyes*
*eyes widen*
You know, I just realised we've said we're going to do this and yet...you haven't properly asked me *turns towards the shadow*

Aye.
Indeed

*backflips into this comment thread*
Speaking
of
weddings!
http://doctorprecocious.blogspot.com
*bows low*
I hope you can attend.
...now what?
Oh! I'll be attending! I just RSVPed.
Oh, excellent! I'm very happy you'll be attending.
Annika turn off your comment security thing!!! D:
Where's it taking place?
OSCARRRR
The wedding will be taking place at a lovely chapel by the river, just on the outskirts of town. Finish found it.
Though, for the record, Mara had a wedding. And Tadra has yet to have one. But they have a daughter, so all is well..
2 weddings, two months apart. Love is certainly in the air huh?
In all fairness, I think Precocious and I have been thinking about our wedding day long before Maralie ever met her true love.
*smiles broadly*
Adra. It's good to see you again. I haven't seen you in ages; I've been so overworked.
You two hated each other.
Hello Oscar darling. *Hugs, kisses his cheek* I'm afraid I can't stay long, but when my fiancée comes with Cara next time, I'll introduce you two to her. She's so lively.
*Nods*
*Runs away*
Nottinghamshire. And why did no-one ever tell me that Jenna-Louise Coleman has an appearance in Captain America: The First Avenger?
*stiffens at the hug*
*then waits for her back to turn before wiping off the kiss with a moist towelette*
. . . Yes, I'd like to meet her.
Though if she's much like you . . .
*Comes back in to flip Oscar off* Screw you! She can't even talk!
*Glares at him as she walks away again*
...Adra? Why do you keep running off?
*flips Adra off*
Sometimes, I think I'd be a bit happier if you didn't talk.
*looks at Blake and laughs*
Oh! It's almost to the next comment thread page! You can post the wedding invite in the beginning!
Greetings to all!

Dress code is formal.
Chartreuse is encouraged.
Yes! Now everyone will know of it immediately! :D
Aww...I wanted to dedicate the page to both of the weddings, but oh well.
:) It's like the first post is an advertising/announcement post...
(Hmm . . . I shall dedicate this page to Fullmetal Alchemist, D Gray Man, Black Butler, Stein's Gate, Soul Eater, Baccano, Durarara, Ouran Highschool Host Club, and Fruits Basket.)
Ah, but a Chronomancer can always attend. But please do tell me more about how you met.
*strokes chin*
You mean . . . how Precocious and I met?
Story time! *sits down*
Indeed, Oscar.
Also, cookies. Free cookies for everyone. There is no other way.
*bites lip*
It was . . . it was a long time ago. We were children, but she was . . . she was a special child. The sort of child that gets locked away, so no one has to look at her.
She was a monster girl.
So I just got the weirdest urge to watch Spongebob (haven't seen it for over 5 years) very weird it's 2 am.
*takes a cookie and starts nibbling on it* *listens intently*
Ah, Oscar, are you implying that you deserve a special kind of respect for putting up with her?
*halves her cookie and gives the other half to Blake*
*noms of half-cookie*
Thanks!
*Hugs Chio tightly*
*takes a deep breath*
*exhales*
I didn't think I would have to recount the story . . .
*shakes head*
. . . There was a fire, and her parents were killed. Her uncles, in an effort to provide for her, left her to live at my estate. There were three of us; I was the middle child.
Algernon was the biggest, and when Precocious went mad . . . we didn't know why, then, but we're wiser now . . . he locked her in the cellar, and did not let me see her. He did . . . things, to her. My sister was Lily, just a baby.
I wanted to play with her.
She'd played with me, when she came to the mansion. Nobody had played with me before. Mother couldn't be bothered, and Algernon was too busy with school . . .
