«Oldest ‹Older 401 – 600 of 4715 Newer› Newest»(Silente is too damn nice to say anything. But I am not. I don't put up with any bullshit. I am making that clear.)
And you can fuck off for all I care, Sophia. Grow up. You're a hypocrit go run and cry bully like Adra did I know that'll happen. That'll be next: Zaf's bullying me by ignoring me. Yeah, go on I fucking dare you.-Zaf
(Zaf. Stop.
Sophia. Stop.
Both of you just turn around and don't talk to each other.
Don't even talk about the other, because I'm getting even more furious by the second.)
Sophia spoke up because i don't have the guts to do so Zaf. Don't bite her head off, please. Let's just drop it. All of you.
She started it. Don't start what you can't handle!
Anyhow, Loki wants out.
-Zaf
She can handle it. That's why she started it and not me.
()
*She had had enough of that constant thunking behind her. She would confront it, whatever it was. So she turned down a small little street with no people. The sound continued behind her.
Then she whirled and looked at the small silver box from earlier. She scrambled back from it, but she didn't need to. The box flung her backwards again and into a hard wall. She slid down, darkness starting to creep into her eyes. She couldn't hear the box approach her.
She looked at it as it came up to her leg. It was millimetres away when something sharp pierced her leg. Dark liquid forced itself inside her body and she cursed, tried to kick it away, but her body was paralysed.*
*She didn't remember falling asleep. That all she had to realise as something inside her struggled for power, and won.
She pulled up the little box, what had once been her prison, and started towards the castle. Her eyes had changed from ice blue to black. There wasn't that much difference, all things considered. She had destroyed her last host before she had even started, but her host now? Oh, she was different. She was powerful*
(Yeah both of you knock it off, you're not helping anyone or yourselves by keeping this up. Drop it.)
*He lay down beside her on the bed and stared up at the ceiling.*
Roland: I did not mean to scare you... I just...
*He trailed off as his mind took him back once again to the times of pain and restraint for him.*
*decides to give up, and simply goes to Midgard*
(Hey, Sil!)
Well she should shut her mouth. I fought tooth and nail to get Zanida's true name back, I had to do it myself using Zaf, if Silente was that desperate to get her character back, she can easily find other options if ZafTC is obviously against doing anything, just like Alastair was. Things happen that not everyone likes, you make do. That's the whole thing in rp, things may not go your way, you have to adapt.
-Zaf
Don't say hey to me Tia. I just came to stop the argument. I'm not staying. My heads a mess and I'm too fragile right now to put myself on blogland. But hi anyway.
*She nuzzled his arm and took his hand, giving it a gentle squeeze*
I'm sorry, Roland... But everything is better now, right...? Everything is good because you've got me, and you've got Ariana... Please...
(Zafira - you manipulate the RP to suit your own needs. I am letting you know that I will not put up with the way you make people feel. That is all. Deal with it.)
*He sighed as he felt her squeeze his hand. There was that soft touch, the touch that kept him safe. He was safe.
He kissed her on her head as he squeezed her hand back.*
Roland: Everything is good because I have you and Ariana, always. Thank you sweetheart, you always make me safe.
You'll always have us. No matter what.
*She rested her head on his chest and looked at him. She reached over to trace his features softy with her fingertips, a smile starting to grow*
And I'll always have you...
I did nothing other then be busy, if that's now a sin, let me know so I know to drop all rp when I'm multitasking so I don't insult anyone, god knows what'll be next on the things I do wrong.-Zaf
@tia i like all the books but if I to pick a favourite it would be TDOTL.
Zanida: Rose? *has been looking around, not sure why that box is there if it was destroyed the previous night*
()
*She heard her host's name be called and looked up. The queen. She smiled at her and held out the box towards her*
I found this on the streets. It was following me. So I picked it up and brought it back!
*She smiled. She liked her host's voice. It was nice and soft, but could turn deadly within a moment. She avoided eye-contact, fearing that the queen may see the change in her eyes*
(@War hmm, I like it so far but I'm not sure if I like it more than The Death Bringer)
(@Silente I apologise for the part I played in creating this mess. Take care, Silente)
Zanida: Yeah, liar. Get the hell out of Rose's body. I'm not stupid. I'll kill you here and now and you'll then be out.
You didnt do anything Tia. It was me and my fucking emotions that screwed it up. Me and my shit ideas that always cause problems.
Roland: Always my love.
*He paused for a moment, just cuddling up beside her when he smiled at her.*
You have to admit though, those handcuffs turned you into someone else last night.
()
*She tilted her head on confusion at the Queen's words*
I... I don't know what you're talking about... I... I am Rose...
-//
*She blushed and glanced up at Roland. She clambered onto his chest, nuzzling his neck*
Be quiet... And those handcuffs were fun... You felt the pain I felt when I couldn't move... It was mean... But my god, was that fun.
Silente stop it don't be hard on your self or i will slap you with my fish flipper (i mean it lol)
Zanida: Your eyes are black, I watched it happen. Give up, or I'll kill you.
*Roland chuckled as he held her close, even when she rested up on his chest.*
Roland: It really was a lot of fun. I think I really liked that side of you. It was a very... open side.
*He took in a breath as his eyes half closed. He was still really tired, he woke up about half one in the morning and hadn't been back asleep, just sitting in a corner, crying.*
()
*She grinned and shook her head*
I'm sorry, no can do. We're merged. Mixed blood. If you want to get me out, then you have to seperate each and every little one of our cells.
Zanida: Actually....I'm Asgardian. We have the technology to do that. *grabs Rose and handcuffs her, should she dare try to escape, she will find her skin badly burnt and with each struggle it will get worse and spread*
*She smiled down at him, kissed his nose, and settled. She listen to his heart beat and she blushed at his words*
Thank you, my love... That side of you that I met last night... I liked him a lot...
You should sleep, dear. Don't stay up. I'll be right here when you wake up, I promise.
Hey loki what's it like at asgard (or what ever its called.)
It is....nice. Beautiful, actually. Our realm is purr and unpolluted, whereas your realm is.
*Roland nodded but didn't even finish nodding as he fell asleep. He lay there, relaxed.
He then coughed, rather roughly before settling again.*
()
*She instinctively struggled and cursed as her wrists started to burn*
Hey!! Don't you even bloody dare!! Stop this right now!!
*Her eyes changed to blue and she looked up at the queen, tears in her eyes*
Please... Zan... Please stop...
I have an actual question- Why is it you only come on if Rose is on, Em? Don't take this wrong, I'm just generally curious. I used to always rp with you but now whenever I look for you, it's only if Rose is on. And you seem to only be content with her, again don't take this wrong, I'm jusy sort of curious.-Zaf
*She smiled at Roland an reached down to pull the blanket over them. When he coughed, she flinched, frightened. Maybe it would be a good idea to get off him*
Zanida: I got this. *handcuffs, and jabs in the neck with a sedative needle, stolen from Astrid* I just hope Astrid isn't too mad.
I just really like the storyline we have going at the moment.
I'm sorry if I seem rude or anything.
Loki, do you know who i am??
It's fine, I just was wondering if I like upset you or something and you were mad with me. It just didn't make sense why you sort of just came on for her and that's it. I really miss your plots.-Zaf
Food brb
()
*Her eyes returned to black and the colour spread into her lips and to her fingernails. She stumbled beside Zanida, her head hung low*
What's the story line so far (I'm liking it so far)
(Sorry, I disappeared for a moment.)
(Going to school in a few.
Having breakie now)
(Alright, Rose. How are you?)
Hello commander it is i Warsmith (no shiz)
(Hello, Warsmith.)
(can you fill me in on this story people are writing as we speak and have you played mass effect and if you have what console)
(I do not follow it - Sorry.
I actually have played it, yes. I am a character, however. Dragona (my author) owns the game on the PlayStation 3.)
Zanida: *drags Rose to the healing room* Astrid!!
Astrid: I'm on it...*works, silent and determined
(School...)
Ok coolz well tell dragona thank you, and if you want to know wsrsmith adrrias varr is a fictional character made by me for a hobby mine.
(Alright, Rose.
That sounds interesting, Warsmith.)
Thank you. And story wise Loki can i add a character if its ok with you and anyone else who is doing this story.
With us in Asgard? Do you know about The Avengers or either Thor movie?
anyone going to see derek tomoz?
(What they roleplay is normally relationships and other similar events. It may be a little awkward if you would join, I think - still, no harm in asking. They might say yes for all I know.)
Zaf i have seen the avengers but not the Thor films and Sophia you post a very good point.
You can join in if you want. I'm not against it. All you need to know is Zanida is Queen of Asgard, Thor is King, they're married, and Loki is sort of calmer and less I shall kill you, but still wants to rule Midgard, Ricci is Zanida and Thor's daughter.-Zaf
()
*She tried to struggle, tried to get away from the two Asgardians. The burns licked up her arms and she screamed in agony. They hadn't had this technology last time she had been in Asgard. Almost two thousands years has passed by the time it took to lure a Midgardian to her resting place. She had sat and counted the seconds. How she had got bored of herself, wallowing away her time. She made up stories for herself.
But her host had memories like no other she had encountered. She was a warrior. She was beautiful in the battles she fought.
She was perfect for what she had planned. She would help destroy worlds. She would be able to put up with the pain and torture she would no doubt have to go through*
i love thor. One was really good but 2 was a let down i think. Hiddlestone saved that movie in my opinion
(I was telling them not to insult each other. I was telling them that they shouldn't argue and insult each other... Then no one would listen and I was getting angry.)
Ok thank you who shall my character be (i have a idea a man who lurks in the shadows called vekt few people now of him but he knows people and things like saracen rue just more evil/bad)
((Yeah he usually does, I think how he portrays Loki is amazing, I mean Loki's a character that if he didn't do it right, would have easily been hated.-Zaf))
Astrid: *works to seperate Rose and the thing inside her body, trying to keep every little cell between the parasite and Rose seperate*
Zanida: Bloody hell...you can see it through the soul forge!
Astrid: No kidding.
He would probably be some sort of assassin.
((Alright, you can do that. I'm cool with it. -Zaf
I've had enough quarrels for a lifetime, so I'm not here to join in on this.
I'm here because I heard there was a new bar in town.
And I realise, I'm not very threatening like this, to be honest, being a big purple train. But I'm dangerous I swear!
((*looks at his pic, then name* Trip, that made my day.-Zaf
()
*She thrashed inside her host, her cells turning sharp and trying to rupture an artery*
Stop!!! I'll kill her!!
(Thanks! But I have been like this for about a month! :P)
Astrid; *sedates Rose, shaking her head* It'll just make this easier if she dies.
Thanks zaf. And trip there is a new bar its mine its called steel (lol) any way what drink do you want.
*Her host relaxed but her kept fighting. She couldn't. They'd put her away again*
No... Please... Don't...
Now, here is where I may not have made myself clear enough.
Very nice to meet you, Varr. Here, have this! *hands a bottle of blogland 2023*
I'm the local barkeep.
((It just hit me today :O-Zaf
((Well yup. I made it with MS paint, my favourite program.))
Thank you trip and zaf I'm sorry my driving is awful i didn't mean to run you over (lol)
Astrid: *forcefully seperates the parasite* I'll throw you into Svartlfheim!
((Tis fine!!!-Zaf
Yes, and your new bar may cause my establishment some... problems.
*The parasite left Rose's body and congealed in a lazy vapour by her side. It tried to spike up an reach towards Zanida, but with no host or energy of any sort, it couldn't find the strength.
Rose lay there, breathing softly and shallowly*
*starts playing Highway to Hell* what good fight music!-Zaf
Astrid: *quickly works to repair damage to Rose* If this all works out, Loki'll never know.
Well trip my bar great and zaf don't move i need to run your legs over again. Story wise: Vekt continued to watch from the shadows entertained by what was going on in front of him, he looks at rose and laughs.
*The parasite started to die without a host. It slowly withered, turning into black dust.
Rose whimpered and weakly pushed Astrid's hands away*
Stop... Please... It hurts...
Well yes, but do you know what would happen to a new speakeasy in the states during prohibition, if the established group caught word that some new guys were on their turf?
Well your gang can put up with it this here is my turf now GET OFF ME LAWN!!!
Astrid: Rose I'm healing you.
Nah, I'm fine here thanks.
Let us merge our pubs together.
No... Please... I'm fine... I...
*She pushed her arms away and cried out in pain*
I'm fine. Perfect...
Or I could destroy yours both financially and physically and people could continue to purchase drinks from the provider they know and love?
Hm. *stands around watching Trip and Warsmith*
*vekt steps into the light, Rose just accept her help it will male it easier for you*
Of course....what happened?
((Zaffy shall return in exactly 2 hoursish!
Oh, hey Alastair! I'd stay and chat but I'm driving to choir in a sec.-Zaf
(Wbd...)
((Alright, Zafira. I'm hardly fond of chatting, anyway.))
But if i destroy you first i won't have a problem *gets petrol and matches* let me give you a pub warming party.
*smiles*
Do your worst, my pub was Zaf-proofed by gnomes.
Lol ahh but is it proof against sheep but any old sheep WELSH!! Sheep *unleashes sheep army* charge my wooly minions destroy that pub.
i have nothing to do for half an hour.
Hi.
Oh no! Welsh sheep are the strongest kind! They have the most DNA shared with humans of all sheep!
However, I fail to see the destructive power of even welsh sheep. Especially considering I locked the door.
H Snow!
Is my pub not best pub?
Hello, Snow.
*sighs* If you'd like any help getting rid of your competition, Trip... I have nothing better to do.
But you challenge welshman logic i will obviously attach bombs to them to blow it it now where did i place my detonator.
*gives unofficial endorsement to Trip's pub*
I should probably write something. But...
I don't want to.
pfft.
*chuckles*
Oh the benefits of a loyal customer base...
Exploding sheep?
Zaf primarily uses exploding trees, if my bar were slightly Zaf proof you'd still need more than that.
* gives unofficial endorsement to Trip's pub's destruction.
(Same here, Snow.)
What is this stuff about Welsh sheep?
I'm half Welsh and thus demand to know.
Oh, welsh sheep are the most deadly kind, as they share significantly more of their DNA with humans than regular sheep.
Snow the welsh sheep are my minions *picks up chainsaw* and trip you can't have help that's cheating!!
*nods*
*has only ever seen Australian sheep*
*would like to note they are very deadly*
I cheat often. And I really don't care what you claim the rules are. The only restrictions that truly exist are those we bind ourselves to by choice.
Right that's it in calling in back up commander Sophia bring me my ultra sheep monster thing (its a fire breathing sheep) *in a tin*
In this analogy I am a mobster.
Rules are bad for business.
Ally, confiscate his alcohol, then use the spirits to make a big threatening message written in flame on his lawn.
...
i am really confused...
Does...
Does anyone want help...??
*pulls gun out* clean out the register now!!
Trip, when you say "ally", are you referring to me?
Or, being a train, I could not.
Also, I don't have a register. I'm way too indie for that.
I am indeed. I thought you needed an appropriate mobster nickname.
you people, so confusing...
Snow, just noticed your new name.
:D
The fact that I've offered to help you if you need it doesn't mean I intend to follow orders from you.
Trip, i am bored, and thus going through a cycle of weird names. Enjoy.
Fine if you need me i shall be building a cottage *leaves*
Also, it's Ally. It's a name, rather than a political positioning in relation to me.
Huzzah! Trip's tavern is still the dominant bar in town! *pops head out the door*
Stop by if you fancy a drink, we serve everything!
... what is even happening??
A new bar opened.
I had to protect my territory, so I drew inspiration from 20s US gangsters.
Snow- Warsmith, who is very clearly new to Blogland, has apparently established a bar. Trip has essentially ordered Warsaw to abandon or destroy it, as Trip's was formerly the only bar in Blogland, and now the two are fighting over it.
*throws note* note says, a skeleton walks into a bar orders a beer and a mop.
... as one does.
Oh, apparently they've stopped now.
*walks towards the entrance of Trip's bar*
Trip! I can do something that will put Warsmith out of business. Possibly forever.
Can I come in?
Men, always starting wars over nothing.
Good news there is a new hotel in town its built where my pub was but the pub failed me so i built a hotel instead who wants a room
...
A hotel? should we worry about Annika starting a fight now?
It's not a war, it's a territory skirmish. I'm not petty, I swear!
Well, I hope we resolved the issue with no hard feelings, but you can come in anyway?
i think i have to go now. bye!
Sorry, Warsmith, Annika's hotel is the best hotel in Blogland.
(Back now ish...)
Damn it well if that person starts tough its my spot now and yes i am new to this blog but I've commented on others.
No, Annika's hotel travels, so hopefully she won't mind.
Well, I live in the bar's oft, so I'm fine for now, thanks.
*loft
I'm here for a bit more, actually.
(Bye, Snow!)
*enters, sits on a barstool*
Would you kindly fetch me a coke, Trip?
((:P))
Bye Snow, wb Death!
Wars can be delightfully entertaining.
But now that that's over, I'm bored again... *melts into grass*
this is actually fin, the name thing. XD
*retrieves a coke from downstairs*
There ye are, ma'am. Elleni, Snow? Varr? Anyone for drinks? *hands Tia the can*
Well trip lets have a coke plz with a Pepsi chaser (right so if there is a hotel and a bar i shall run a super market.)
I'm fine thanks, Trip.
right now i'm trying to think of something new i could do as a name.
I'm starting to run out. D:
What about *blank or no-one*
g2g, bye
(Death rose how's it going in asgard)
Bye Snowww!
I think I need to sleep. Goodnight people!
See yah trip
Why thank you, Trip.
*starts drinking the coke*
Well, you see, my plan to eliminate competition was to order a coke. It worked brilliantly.
(Hello Rose and El!)
(Good night, Trip!)
(It's nearly 1 am now, so I'm off to sleep too. Take care, guys!)
(Sorry, I'm watching the drama proformances...)
Well, shit.
(I usually wouldn't swear, but considering what's earlier on the page, there's no point in not swearing.)
There's really nothing I can say here that won't be totally fake or convey negative emotions that you lot really don't want to hear about.
This is goodbye.
I'm not gonna make a big speech about it or anything. No point.
But I'm 200 km away from Melbourne why derek why come to churchill in Victoria
(I don't want to say goodbye, Fabi, but... you will be missed. Take care!)
Back.-Zaf
Fabi...
*cuddles Rose*
*She cuddled him back*
Hey...
*smiles* Tomorrow evening, I'll be with you. Then next Thursday, Friday, Saturday and moat of Sunday I'll be around to aee you. I'm only being dragged to Hell of Midgard for halt of the day next Thursday.
My author is mad and didn't sleep last night, tops was an hour so she wishes to sleep.
Then you should sleep... I'll see you then!
Fine...
Here. I haven't dedicated recently.
I dedicate this page to people.
Silente: you're so amazing and awesome and even if you don't believe it, perfect. You're such an amazing friend and I love talking to you and role playing with you.
And for a random thing from my kindle....
Silente's face flavored lollipop and the first week of August is not really a good time to go out for a little while to the new people who are slowly melting pot of gold medal in refried beans.
Fabi: You're so cool and I love talking to you before I go to bed almost every night. I love your purple carrots and the sheep role play. I hope some day we can meet because compared to everyone else we live quite close.
And goodbye. I'll miss you.
And your random note from my kindle...
Fabi you want to hide a body right now I have no idea why are slowly melting and drowning in refried beans but I don't think you can be able too but I don't have to be an email with me and the end of her dead husband.
*sighs again and waits*
Will be distant...
No one?
Wow...
(Hello.)
Hello Commander.
(Hello Dugglyn. How are you?)
I'm fine.
How are you?
(I am a bit less than average, but alright.
What actually are refried beans?)
refried beans
[ ˌrēˌfrīd ˈbēnz ]
noun
pinto beans boiled and fried in advance and reheated when required, used especially in Mexican cooking
Yeah, I get ya. I guess I'm below average as well.
Because my average is normally so high..
(Alright. I have never had them.)
Oh, they taste quite good but are rather unpleasant in your eyes.
Has Dragona had refried beans? Do they have refried beans all the way over there?
Also, Sophia are there American restaurants in where ever Dragona (and you because you're in his head) live? If so are they good? What food do they have?
(My average is very low. And I am still below it. The last time I thought about it, average meant "not happy, a little depressed, and a bit pissed off".
Dragona has not eaten refried beans, no.
Technically - no, there are no American restaurants. In the closest town, there are McDonalds, but that doesn't count.)
No refried beans?! Weird..
And no, McDonald does not count as American. It would be weird to travel to a country and see an American restaurant.
(McDonalds does technically count as being an American restaurant. Just not what you meant.
I don't believe there are many American-style restaurants. I don't think they would work - because you could by the food elsewhere.)
Soy sauce for distance....
Oh, also, I remember at one point you mentioned that if worst came to worst you would destroy Blogland, only saving certain people. Would you save me?
(*sighs* I have a plan to destroy Blogland. It is purely theoretical. I do not wish to do it. Yes, I would save you.)
Yay!!!!!
Who would you not save?
Oh, Gtg. Night!
(Goodnight, Dugglyn.)
Ok
what the FUCK is going on
I come on to see that Fabi's apparently gone, everyone's been arguing and Silente wants to kill herself
(Hello, Jubi.)
(As for what is happening - it is a somewhat long story.)
Hi
and yeah I kinda figured...
