YAY! HUGS! :D
Hello Rose!
(Bye, El!)
*tacklecuddles Rose* Hi :)
(Hey, Xan!)
*Cuddles El and screams at Tia's tacklecuddle. She hits the ground and frowns at him*
Evil...
Bye Elleni! Hello Xanadu!
I'M BACK FROM CHINA :D
IT WAS AWESOME :D
NONE OF YOU PROBABLY KNEW I'D GONE OR NOTICED THAT I HAD :P
*poofs to catch up on stuff*
Hey Phoe.
Hello Emerald!
Nice to meet you Xanadu!
Ouuuu! How was China?
Okay! I might forget though...I usually call by full name...
Msd...
So, now what? What shall we do?
@Rose. Not evil, just cuddly.
@Emerald Welcome back! (You mentioned you'd be gone for a week.) So what did you like about China? What didn't you like?
*walks up a grassy hill and lies down*
*stares up at clouds*
*lies down next to Amy*
They're so distant...
*nods* Yup.
Do you think it's going to rain?
Ah. I missed Rose, she caugjt my author in the middle of working on English.
*sigh*
No. Not here, at least.
(Yes, it appears so.)
...if clouds were a type of cotton candy, what would they taste like?
Vanilla, hopefully.
Hm...interesting...
Mint, I guess?
And gosh dang it, I have to go now. :(
*poofs*
*again*
*yep...*
Bye Emerald.
I think I'm going to go now. Bye.
Watching Agents of SHIELD.....someone speaks Spanish and I'm asked to translate.-Zaf
http://thelittletownofdour.blogspot.com
*whispers* Go check it out. Chapter Three is up.
I must go. My people need me.
(Good night!)
Night Tia.
*fades*
I'll be watching..
*looks at Zanida, not sure what they experienced*
Zanida: Loki, I could feel your emotions. Hell, I saw vividly into your mind.
I know, Jabari strengthened us. We are one.
Zanida: Look...
Zanida, if you die you know full well we will bring you back. Why do you fret?
Zanida: What of Thor?
We tell him nothing.
Zanida: He is my husband!
I care not. Am I not your king? You are sworn to obey me.
Zanida: I'm not going to leave him- *yelps* Down! Down sceptre down!
We are wasting time. I want to discuss with Zafira her capabilities.
Zanida: She's on Midgard?
No. I brought her here.
Zafira: *comes up pretty damn confused* You know...
Can you shunt?
Zafira: I-I yes. I can shunt, why?
You owe me a favor, you have for a long time. You will help me when I ask, yes?
Zafira: No. I mean yes.
Good, good.
And another awful day carries me by and throws me downhill, and I'm left surrounded by people who I don't know, who love me by word of mouth but not by time.
And I'm surrounded by people, but I've never felt lonelier, and i feel like I'm just being piled in by false support by people who are trying to make themselves feel not guilty about me, and so they say a nice thing or two, make a contribution, and they feel better about themselves...
...
I apologize, I'll leave now.
Adra...
*Cuddles*
I'm sorry. Just remember that you're perfect and my email is open... Not that makes a big difference, but we love you. Don't forget it.
Here....
You know when you move to a new school and someone greets you and even though you guys have nothing in common you become close friends. And then another person comes and you two greet her and you become a three some, though you understand the new person a little better, you have more stuff in common. But then they get a bunch of classes together and become closer, becoming best friends while every once and a while you see them and though you are still close, they are best friends and you are left out.
And while maybe you can make more friends maybe you're shy or really enjoy spending time with those people. And everyone else has their own group.
I don't like it... but the people are still good friends to you and it's nobody's fault.
I Gtg. Pie!
(Goodnight. For the record, expect no apologies from me.)
Hby Blake!
-wraps my golden wings around myself, bringing my knees to my chest for my chin to rest upon and hiding from all my failures-
-looks sround at the seemingly empty blogland, my mind seeing the rot that my eyes cannot-
-my mind strays to ponder new thoughts, thoughts of people lurking, watching from the shadows without making themselves known-
-moves back to my feet, wings hanging limp and dejected, and walks away- -clearly I am only sharing this space with thin air-
*she watches, unsure what to make of this person*
*should she call out a greeting or stay hidden, watching from the tree*
*she decides to try, if this person is not to far way*
*she jumps out of the tree, landing in a crouch before straightening*
*she hesitantly calls out*
Hello?
-wraps my wings tighter around myself once more, trying to fend off the loneliness and guilt that often plagues me recently-
-I looks around- hello.
Hi. Who are you and what brings you here?
*she tone is not in any was hostile, just curious*
I am, as my name may suggest, a Screw Up. I came in hopes of finding one who might talk without judgement.
So I had hoped. Or maybe I came only to take my mind off of its daily strain. Who knows. I, for once, can certainly not claim to know.
*she frowns*
I highly doubt you are a Screw Up but if you want, I shall listen and talk without judgment.
By the way, I'm a shadow. Someone who blends in.
She walks briskly through Blogland, hands in her coat pockets, collar up so it obscures most of her face.
She hasn't been here in over six months, and she doesn't feel as though she belongs here now, and yet it's not as though she's going to go back to where she was for either a month or two months, depending on how you looked at it. She could never do that.
Besides, she hates leaving loose ends.
She walks past Trip's bar and the clearing with the various treehouses, reminiscing. The bar is closed, and there's so much more here than there used to be. Or maybe she's just mis-remembering. She doesn't do that, not usually. Or she didn't... She can't trust herself anymore, and she certainly can't trust anyone else.
She keeps glancing around her, which is a bit uncharacteristic. Usually she doesn't need to glance to be aware of her surroundings. As we've already established, however, now is very far from 'usually.'
You seem to have started talking to yourself. Terribly sorry if I'm disturbing you..
I will be a shadow if I want!
*she realizes that came out sharper than she intended*
Sorry...
But I just blend in and fade. Too insignificant to notice or remember.
And, no! You have not disturbed us! Come and talk. We're here for you.
*she glances around, pausing when she sees someone walking around*
*-I wonder who that is...-*
Forgive me. I confused the names. It appears someone wishes to properly roleplay..I will take my leave so as not to waste comments. Farewell.
The amulet is in the hollow of a tree, right where she left it. She feels a momentary feeling of warmth. Here is something that hasn't changed.
It's about to change, though. That's the whole point.
She slips it over her neck for the time being--she'll need it sooner or later. It hasn't been doing her any good in the tree hollow.
She glances around one more time, a tear trickling down her cheek.
I guess this is it then.
It's as though you blinked and she was gone. Maybe she was never there in the first place. You've always had a good imagination.
No! Don't go! Please..!!
(Please don't feel as though you're wasting comments, person-with-too-many-names. You have as much right to be here as anyone else.)
We want you here! Whether to talk or to role play. I've been waiting to talk to you. We don't get to talk much anymore because of stupid time zones.
Person with too many names? Forgive me for not understanding, I presume you are referring to who my author may be?
Hello Amy!
Hello...can I just call you Dugglyn?
Greetings Amethyst.
Forgive me, Sometimes.
And can I call you Elleni?
Your other names are long... :|
Yeah sure! I might change my name back soon. Just in a disappear-y mood. It happens! :))
No, it's fine! If you want to leave, that's fine! Just don't feel like you have to!!!! Know I always love talking to you! :))))
Aye. It's more mysterious this way, if I don't tell you what's deeper than did ever plummet sound. Though, if you look in a reasonably obvious place, you'll find it.
Well, I would really rather not call anyone screw up, and you mentioned roleplaying, so I assumed you were speaking as the author doing the roleplaying. Apologies for the misunderstanding.
Hello Amy.
And...Silente?
Deeper, I fear you have miss guessed who I am. Although I am rather glad that it is not entirely obvious I am not, in fact, Dimitri.
OH SHIT I GOT COMPLETELY MIXED UP AND THOUGHT YOU WERE SOMEONE ELSE. SORRY.
That's the problem with using different names...
Yeah, sorry.
I'm gonna go now. Bye!
And hello, Deeper than did ever plummet sound. I don't know your other name, if you have one... sorry.
It is quite alright Deeper. No harm done.
My author would prefer to remain unnamed Amethyst. This name feels more fitting of late.
And good bye, I guess.
Oh...but you aren't a Screw Up... :(
Of course I have another name.
It's not like it says "deeper than did ever plummet sound" on my birth certificate! That'd just be weird.
I'm not going to just TELL you my name, though. That'd be boring.
Also, I theoretically left, though I've learned that that hardly ever works out...
Bye Deeper!!
Soy for confusion Amy!
And are you ok Screw...?
I wish not to offend but I'm afraid that is not your judgment to make Amethyst, my author and you have not spoken in weeks.
...yea... *hugs*
Yes, someone?
You're feeding the bad emotions, dude(tte). That DEFINITELY isn't good for you.
Not that you're likely to be in the emotional state to care about what's good for you or not, but, well, that's what we're here for.
However that is through no fault of your own Amethyst.
Agreed...
Screw Up, you're not a Screw Up. Try to remember we don't see you as a Screw Up.
Last bit directed at the person I'm not going to call screw up, so um, you're now Snail. I'm not sure why. Actually, I am, but it's a reference you wouldn't get.
(Hello.)
Hey Sophia.
Hello, Sophia.
(Hello, Amethyst. How are you?)
Snail? Very well deeper.
I'm afraid many of the people on this blog have minimal evidence on which their opinions are based.
Greetings Commander.
Well, Snail, you've contributed positively to this community. DEAL WITH IT.
(*hugs Silente*)
I'm fine, thanks. You?
I fail to see evidence of that Deeper.
*tilts head at Commander* My author is nit responding to that name I'm afraid. Forgive any annoyance this may cause.
Hey Sophia!
But I Gtg. It's almost ten and I'm so tired....!!!
*huggles everyone*
*except Sophia. She nods politely at Sophia, restraining the urge to bug*
**hug
Now why on earth would I bug people?!
(Except that one time I wanted to bug, hug, and buy Sophia..
That was strange.)
Goodbye Someone.
Blender! XD
Bye Dugglyn.
(Well, Silente, I am refusing to call you a screw up because that would be a lie. Whether or not your author is responding to that name is not my concern. How your author is feeling is.)
That's because you're really not looking for it.
Anyway, I'm really going to go now. Nice talking to you.
Forgive me someone. I meant farewell sometimes.
How are you Commander.
Farewell Deeper.
(Not speaking to you. I am speaking to your author, you know, my sister? My best friend? The one who is upset?)
Bye Deeper.
I am her commander. She is I and I am she.
(That is a lie. Because she has not screwed up, whether she believes it or not. Everyone makes mistakes - it is only human. But no mistakes were made in this instance. She did nothing wrong.)
We disagree. However I have no wish to argue. How are you Commander.
Don't dwell on the past. Live in the present. *nods* Don't feel so sad :)
Be happier!
(You can disagree all you like. But it would be like arguing against the fact that oxygen is in the air.
One could argue against an opinion, but I gave no opinions. Only facts.)
You have many opinions commander
(Again - I gave no opinions. But I could give you some if you'd like.)
That is quite alright commander.
(No, it isn't. That is the point. *hugs Silente again*)
-hesitates-
-hugs back-
There are many points. You needn't waste time by stating opinions.
(You should know, by now, Silente, that nothing I do is a waste of time.
Everyone has opinions on one thing or another. I give my opinions on people. This is no different, albeit with 100% less negativity and 100% more positivity from normal.)
I should go to sleep; it's getting late. Good bye.
*gives hugs to all who want them*
(Goodbye, Amethyst.)
(I will be distant for a brief moment.)
(I am back somewhat.)
(Hello, Silente. *hugs her tightly*)
*hugs tightly back* sorry..
It is perfectly alright. Bottling your emotions up does not help you. You do need to let them out. *keeps hugging her*
Sorry if it made any negative stuff pop up..
It didn't. Honestly - it was fine. You didn't cause any problems whatsoever.
(
(That was not what I wanted to say, but it did the job I suppose. *scowls at the bracket*)
(Uh...if don't want want the ded..)
(I do want the dedication. Because I have something - someone - to dedicate to.
I dedicate this page to Silente Tempest. She is my friend. She is my sister. And I love her as such.)
You know I won't be no stick figure silicone barbie doll...
So if that's what you're into then go ahead and move along...
I freaking LOVE this song :)
(Wbvd, by the way)
(*hugs Soph tightly* you really don't have to dedicate the page to me...)
(Apologies. Technology issues.
*hugs Silente tightly back* I know. I wanted to.)
(@Snow you're friends are brilliant)
(Tech doesn't seem to like you Soph..
How are you?)
(I am average. Yourself?)
(If I tickle you will you be above average?)
(I am not ticklish, I'm afraid.)
(Daaaaamn.)
(I do not believe it would work, anyhow.
*keeps hugging Silente*)
(You're probably right.... *smooths sophs hair*)
(I will be here for another twenty minutes or so.)
(*nods* *keeps hugging Silente* How are you?)
(I'm breathing. Thats good. However I have to go now...bye.)
(It is definitely good. Goodbye.)
(I have to leave. Goodbye.)
That wasn't me earlier, Tempest. That was El. Though Clara and i had a similar pun exchange over twitter. - Snow
I love your profile picture, Snow. C:
It's a fanmade version of Annika's Skulduggery in drive ed stuff. (On the twitter)
Fanmade by meeeeee
**- Snow
Interesting, Snow.
*Curls into a ball and shivers*
Damn you cold...
I can't feel my toes... I need socks... And gloves... And somewhere to curl up and cry because of all this shit right now but I cant...
*Slowly crawls into a conveniently placed bed beside her and shivers under the covers, trying to warm herself*
Good.... Night.... If I freeze... All know that I love Loki....
*cuddles Rose* Hey...
*Cuddles Tia, curling into his warmth*
Hey.... How are you...?
*passes his warmth to Rose*
Just about ok. I think. :/
How are you?
*Nuzzles Tia's chest and holds him close*
Cold... Very cold... And nervous and scared and anxious and worried and on the verge of tears... But otherwise... I'm ish...
I can keep you warm.
Loki...
*She held one arm out to him, not wanting to leave Tia's warmth*
*walks over to her, wrapping an arm around her* I love you.
((YES!! Spirit Week is next week jeans 4/5 days :D-Zaf
Rose...
*holds her reassuringly*
What's wrong?
(So envious... So much better than collared blue dresses...)
*She curled into Loki's chest and sighed contentedly*
I love you too...
(*Cough* Jeans and a hoodie every day... *Cough* Not really here...)
Tia... My author... Her uncle is in hospital. He is probably going to... You know... Soon. His tumours are bleeding and they can't do anything about it because they're on a major vein...
So my author has shed more tears than she is willing to admit... And I am feeling the same as her...
(*Cough* Damn you all without uniforms *cough* hi Blake *cough*)
*hugs Rose tighter* Mine. Tell your author, mine sends her regards. Mine may vanish soon, chemistry test.
Never mind. No test :D
Gotta go, lab
And you're mine... My author says thank you, and she seems to be crying again, but she's fine... I think...
Good luck, Zaf.
*She raised her arms above her head and looked at him*
Pick me up?
(Hello.)
Rose... I-
My great-grandmother is in a hospital and... she's really old and I don't want to think about it but... I don't really know her that well. If she dies, I don't think I will cry as much as you, and that makes me sad. *hugs Rose and Loki*
(@Blake you mean you still wear uniform!?)
(Goodbye, Loki.
Hey Soph.)
*She hugged Tia back tightly and started to cry softly into his shoulder*
I'm sorry...
Hey, Soph!
*imagines hugging her*
*grumbles*
(Forgive me, I must sleep... It's rather late...)
(Hello Tia and Rose. How are you?)
Good night, Rose!
Stay warm, ok?
(Normal, Soph. How are you?)
(I am average, thank you.)
(I am bored again.)
(Sorry, Soph, distant.)
(It is fine.)
(Dragona had his form tutor class cancelled so he was able to leave college early. I am somewhat glad, though I have a feeling his day will not be productive which irritates me.)
Here here!!! :))))))
(For the ded)
*not here, have to go to school*
I don't have school now :D
But then next next Monday'll come around... :/
Ah well.
How was China, Fay?!
*whispers*
It's so quiet...!
Is there a new post?
No.. hmm.
Ok.
*waves to non existent people*
'Lo. :)
Hullo!!!! How be's yous?! How be's yous eyes?!
Gtg, pie!
*opens door and walks inside*
*closes door*
Hello?
(Hello.)
(Hello soph how are you?)
(I am average. Yourself?)
(I'm really happy and excited, because its my BIRTHDAY!! tomorrow)
(Happy birthday for tomorrow. It is my birthday on the 21st.)
(Thank you soph and dragona)
(hello.)
(Hello, Silente. *hugs her*)
(Hey Soph. *smiles and hugs back* how are you? Above below or on average?)
(On average. How are you?)
