«Oldest ‹Older 1201 – 1400 of 4715 Newer› Newest»*Starts to talk then thinks* Maybe it's better she doesn't remember me. *Clicks fingers and she appears in bar*
Bar man: no, miss
Never seem such a strong drinker
Felix: *rolls eyes * of course
(Take it you didn't like his ex then. Any particular reason?)
*looks around * what happened?
Where am I ?
Who was that?
*for some reason, she feels sad*
*grins*
Told ya.
*nods at the barman by way of thanks and slips a twenty under the empty vodka glass for him*
*looks at Flick*
Hey what's up inks?
*walks over to her*
Bar man I'll take a glass of your best wine.
*Tardis appears on top of mountain* *Sits on top*
Bar man *grins*
*sees Felix* hello sir, where am I exactly?
Felix: inky? You know me and where you are, I'm felix...
Batman: *oves wine to Gar*
Flick?
*steps into her line of view*
Hey whats happened?
*gives
(Wn Soph)
Flick but my name is Inky... Or so I'm told...
I only remember my death... Who was that *blushes* handsome guy I was just with ? He brought me here and disappeared
Sil, have you given War the usual greeting? As far as I know he's new...
(Gar*)
What do you...oh. Oh shit.
*smiles, trying her best to look like an innocent twelve year old*
Misss...please may I use your phone...it's just my...my parents...they left me here and I w-want to go home...
*pats back pocket of jeans*
*pulls our unfamiliar phone*
(Not yet. You can have dibs.)
*smiles sadly*
Thanks.
*quickly goes through her contacts and phones Ed*
*Answers phone on mountain* Yes?
*tail wags*
*doesnt realize she has a tail*
*notices it*
*stares shock*
Am I a monster ...?
(All over it.)
*Walks up to Garret, his face unreadable*
We have a way of greeting newcomers and accepting them as a member of Blogland. It's usually myself or Silente who goes about doing this because... well, we find it fun.
*He decks Garret directly in the nose with more strength than any human could muster*
Hey Daddy..
*slowly walks away from Flick slightly so she won't overhear*
what the hell did you do to Flick.
I saved her
*shoots Felix a look that basically means 'look after her or die'*
*blends into the gloom* thank you for the wine.
*sits down at bar*
*notices locket *
*opens it and sees photo of her and ed in Paris*
Hey...
*to the phone*
Saved her my ass. What exactly have you done. She doesn't even remember who she is!!!
Felix: *nods* hey Inky *smiles*
That man is ed, he really loves you
Inky:*feels tears* he loves a monster like me?
Felix: he doesn't see you like that
If she stayed with me, then she will die. I saw it. If she remembers me then she will try to help me and she will die. Teach her who she is but do not let her remember me
*Sighs and pulls his fist back*
What a kill joy.
Fuck you. You can't just wipe someones memories as a way out!
*steps through a portal, appearing directly behind Edward and hanging up*
Explain.
Family stuff sorry...
She was a jealous bitch who hated me so much because of how my brother and I were close, she also would not allow me to be in their wedding...-ZF
Felix: *orders her a drink*
No thanks... I don't drink
Felix: how do you know?
*takes a sip* it's disgusting *makes a face*
Where is Ed now? Has he... Left me?
No *Tardis and Ed disappear and appear in the past*
(Oh okay. You have right to hate her then.)
*growls*
*call's Felix*
*starts crying * I pushed him away didn't i? I am a monster!
*storms out*
Felix: *follows her* no... That's not it!
*runs and collapses at a cliff face*
*breaks down*
Felix: *answers*yes?
Blake thank you for that *holds broken nose* (so that's how you initiate new members could of warned me sil)
You say that like we're done.
*He raises his fists once more, a slight glow surrounding his body*
The "initiation ceremony" consists testing the newcomers strength, so bring it on.
Yeah I thought the same haha. So apparently he MAY be moving home and all....I don't know. His work ID and house shoes are here so I don't know what he plans or anything but that's fine by me if he comes home. We'll relocate the gerbils to the living room and that's that.
-Zaf
He's a dick head. He ran away to the past. I'm coming back to talk to Flick. If you see Ed either shackle him of have a guy talk with him. Okay?
Felix: okay*hangs up*
*howls*
*continues sobbing *
(Well, I hope he's okay if he does come home...break ups aren't easy after all.)
Thanks for that Blake *holds broken nose* (sil you could of warned me of that lol)
(Consists of*)
*steps through a portal, appearing at the tree line near Flick*
*moves to her side and sit next to her*
He broke it off because he said she's a jealous bitch and that he had it.
A. I'm happy
B. i'm Happy
C. I AM HAPPY
*notices Sil*
*wipes tears*
Hey, did you phone your dad?
*tries smiling*
(Inky, my character Emerald is a werewolf as well. Maybe she could come in a be a friend to confused, memory lost Inky?? Just a suggestion.)
Felix: *runs into middle of woods*
Hey Ed! Come out you coward! No real man leaves his girl like that!
(Tha would be great Em ^^)
*punches Blake in the face* right now we are equal (test finished right??)
*Appears behind Felix*
(That would've ruined the surprise war)
(Good. It's good you're happy.)
Oh yeah..
*hands her the phone back*
You okay?
Awwww, Em the wolf buddies!!! Can Alexis come help? God knows Alexis would like a chance to be out and socialize.
-Zaf
Felix: *turns and punches Ed*
*voice dangerously low* you bastard, leaving her like that
*shouts* do you know what is give to see my girl again?!
*Emerald appears behind Ink, she had caught her scent a few minutes ago and had finally caught up to her.
She stood with her hands on her hips.*
Emerald: Are you the other werewolf I've been smelling??
*shakes head* no I'm not... He left me, I am a monster!
She doesn't remember me though, so she can't miss me. *Holds broken nose*
(That'd be great Zaf)
*sees Em* that's what I am?
*looks at Emerald*
Who the hell are you?! Never mind..
*looks back to Flick*
You aren't a monster..he left you because he cares for you...
Alexis: *shakes head, her mind sensing that another person is here, not human, it reminded her of Inky.*
Felix: she knows buddy, I reminded her. Now she thinks she repelled you because she thinks she's a monster!
He c c cares? Why couldn't he be straight with it? Why didn't he tell me? Why can't I remember?!
*Emerald smirks as she walks a little closer. She is wearing a leather jacket with a sword's hilt just seen over her shoulder hanging on her back.*
Em: Yeah, you smell like me. And I'm a werewolf. You should be careful out here, I've come across a few wolf traps in the woods.
And if you think you are a monster, sweetheart you need to think a bit higher of yourself.
You can't remember because he thought it would be safer if you forgot because he's an idiot.
Make her think she left me, and it was my fault. She needs to be sae
*Smirks a little and raises an eyebrow*
Far from it, you really need a lesson on how we do things here.
*Grabs Garret by his shirt and hurls him out the door, appearing above him and punching downwards*
Here, we go until someone needs medical help.
*shifts as Emerald gets closer*
*looks her up and down quickly, sizing her up, just in case*
How can I think higher of myself when I can't remember anything !
brb
*strolls over* so now there is 2 wolves and a new person, I'm Garrett and you are (for zaf and i zaf)
Felix: I won't do that
I wish I could still be with my love, I would do anything
You have te chance I don't
*punches him again*
(Good evening, Blogland!)
(What is happening? Why is everyone suffering from memory loss?)
(Evening Tia ^^)
(Hey Tia. You know that sister/vampire person? Can her and Sil please meet?)
(Hey Tia. Tell Sil I'm not ugly.)
(Blake people lie so as not to hurt your feelings. Maybe I'm just the only honest friend you have ;)
Blake I'm warning you punch me again and it will turn ugly *curb stomps Blake's foot* what are you going to do with a broken foot now?
Emerald: Think of that as a good thing.
Most people would kill for a chance to forget everything and start again.
So do you get moon sick or get really angry?
*Looks down at his foot, no pain in his face*
Y'know, I'm sure that would have worked on a normal human.
*A single massive white and gold wing spreads out from his right side*
Unfortunately for you, half angels are a bit tougher.
*Kicks upwards, knocking Garret's foot off his own, and slams his foot into Garret's chest with the force of a truck*
@Silente, Blake told me you're not ugly ;) (or something along those lines)
((And I would like to do that, but I don't feel like doing it now. I'm sorry. I have to think a bit more about the characters of Tia and Tanya before I'm ready to do that))
I cant remember....
((That's fine Tia. Sil is just getting agitated in my head at (in her words) 'another encroaching on my territory and taking the blood of my friends.'))
*starts coughing a smug look on his face* *draws bow and knocks a arrow* bring it on wingy
(No no Tia... tell Sil I'm not ugly. She always calls me ugly when I come on ;n;)
Alexis: My name is Alexis. *War can see her badge identifying her as a Sanctuary Operative* You may know my mother, Grand Mage Kerias.
(War- Alexis is Zaf's daughter she's a Sensitive. Her brother Aro is a Sense-Warden. Long story.-Zaf))
*smiles at Al* nice to meet you
(fair doo's zaf) if you want to google Garrett from thief so you'll know who he is and what he looks like.
Before we begin, I feel obligated to tell you that nobody here has ever beaten me.
*Splays his fingers, a golden circle appearing around his hand. He reaches into it and pulls out a large ornate sword, it seems to glow in the sunlight as he points it at Garret*
Now then, where to begin?
*With a leap forward and a flap of his wing, he's on top of Garret within a moment, stabbing rapidly*
Em: Well do you get sick when the moon is out or do you have a bubbling pain in your stomach when you get angry.
At this stage, I can pretty much change on demand, but it takes a lot more out of me.
Silly me! I'm Emerald Melody.
(brb, swapping devices.)
*looks at Alexis*
sheeeeet
*hides*
*smashes his black jack in black's face* that's not working fool.
Alexis: Nice to meet you. *smiles, and looks at the two werewolves* Oh my god, you're Emerald Melody!!! Mom talks highly of you!!! *Her eyes widen and Alexis looks ready to scream in excitement*
Hiya, Em. Im Inky, apparently
I think I get angry...I only remember the past half an hour
*Chuckles and leaps back again, tugging on the previously hidden chains on his left arm*
Then perhaps this will.
*Chains around Garret's feet, secretly dropped in his faint attack, tighten around his ankles as Blake pulls him off his feet*
*Emerald looks at Alexis with a straight and serious face.*
Emerald: Please for the love of god, don't scream.
*She turns back to Inky.*
Being angry is a better option, I've heard of people almost being emancipated because they got so sick during the moon phases.
But being angry means that you're beast can potentially get a better hold over your conciousness.
thank you, Em. for helping me
*struggles against the chains* alright i yield we're done *starts limping away and collapses*
(Silente, Blake has requested me to tell you that he's hot. Wink wink)
(hey Tia)
*frowns and wonders why she's hiding*
*steps out head held high, not looking at alexis*
*Emerald placed a hand on Inky's shoulder.*
Emerald: We gotta stick together, there are starting to be very few werewolves in between travelling now so who knows if there are hunters or not.
Anyway you look like you could use all the help you could get right now.
(Back)
*Walks off into woods*
(I am still here, by the way - I just have nothing to say.)
*Frowns as the chains snake back up around his arm, leaning on his sword*
Well you're no fun. I wonder where Rose is... she's always good for a spar.
(Trust me Sophia, that is perfectly okay.)
*smiles* Im glad you are here, but why dontyou have these
*points to wolf ears and tail*
(Hey, War and Soph!)
(What do you mean, Blake?)
Felix: Come back you coward! is this for protecting Inky or yourself from hurt? Guess what? everyone dies at some point, you have to accept it.
*sits cross legged in a cupboard, but whose is it today?*
(HI Trip, can you knock sense into Ed please?)
I am keeping her safe. Perhaps you should accept she will be safer with you. I want nothing more than to bring her back but I have no choice
Emerald: As I said, I can control her better than some.
And if you've been angry the last while, if it's not a full transformation, it's gonna show off somehow.
I wouldn't worry about it, practise makes perfect.
(Hi Trip)
(Whatever you chose to take it as.)
(Maaaybe...)
Felix: everyone has a choice.
If I could see HER death, I would stick by HER
*smiles* Interesting
*tilts head* I would have thought wolves to be more scary
(I didn't ask what I took it as - I was asking what you meant it as.)
*Suddenly angrier* I am saving her
(tripp we meet again)
*Emerald smirked as she thought about her pup days.*
Emerald: Oh don't misunderstand babe, in wolf form, we are scary as shit.
But we try not to bite as much in human form, makes the unexpected more adrenaline filled and fun to watch.
(Herrow. How are ye?)
Felix: *shakes head* not Inky, I meant... Jessie.
She was killed, it was my fault. But I stuck to her
(I'm good thx as you can see i have a new identity Garrett the master thief how r u?)
I find this really interesting
Well, if you could have saved her by keeping her safe would you have?
Alexis: I'm not. May I tell my mother? I'm a Sensitive.
((Oh....my....god.....the bitcj stole $300 from my brother
(Oh I'm as good as I always am, thanks. Yourself?)
Felix: I knew they would kill her and I protected her by being next to her at all times. My mistake was that I relaxed my guard. I couldn't see the future, but you did
You can change it. Inky was really happy with you
(damn zaf that's real bad r u going to do anything about it??)
((Huh?))
(300?)
(Booooooored.)
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUNYCGZMtI8
this is what I watch)
(300. Yup. 300.-Zaf
*sits in a tree watching everything* *falls asleep* (not in r.l)
*Turns to Felix* Enough, she is now safe *trees start to die with age and the ground dries up and cracks*
(Oh really Silente? Well maybe you and I could team up on something.)
Felix: *turns* Its like you don't even want to be around her, no wonder shes heartbroken
Wolves only have one mate and you have ruined it for her
(Team up on what?)
*the coffee is cold*
*after all this time, and all this waiting*
*endless calls and arrangements and murders*
*all culminating in this one meeting, on this one street, in this one no-name cafe*
*and the coffee is cold*
*quietly* Just my luck.
*sips it anyway*
*pale fingers tap-tapping on the tabletop*
*waiting for the collector to arrive*
*Appears behind him with a sword round his neck* You know I am protecting her. She will find another mate now, she is better without me
Anni...-Zaf
(Hello ??????)
Hey Annika!
(I dunno, something?)
*laughs* idiot
Demons do not fear death
You say protecting her? don't you remember what she told you? wolves only have one mate. They are their anchors. They stop them losing control.
But don't worry. Im sure you could go and see her when people put her in a zoo, or a circus
(Anni? Hi)
Emerald: Yeah sure kid, knock yourself out.
It is interesting. There's even so much more about our kind that I don't know about.
But there is one wolf, who we all avoid at all costs.
He's very different. He's the first wolf to ever learn magic and sustain it without him being killed by it.
*it's a cold day*
*rain is drizzling down the windowpanes of the cafe*
*no one wants to sit outdoors today*
*does so anyway*
*shielded by the striped parasol over the table*
*looks up at the sky*
*smiles* What a dismal day.
I do love days like this. They remind me of home.
*sips coffee*
*music is playing from down a back road*
*far too upbeat and peppy, for this sort of occasion*
*bobs head and mouths along with the lyrics*
You make me dance,
bring me up,
bring me down,
plays it sweet,
make me move like a freak,
Mr. Saxobeat.
*laughs to self quietly*
*the tap-tapping grows more impatient*
*the collector has not yet arrived*
*time is running out*
*raises an eyebrow* who is that then?
*ears twitch*
Enough, I can think of things worse than death for a demon. She doesn't even remember me
*steps from their cupboard*
Deacon.
He doesn't trouble us any more.
(Helpful Trip.)
(Helpful Trip.)
I dedicate to Electra. I'll leave you to find out why.
felix: But her instincts are probably screaming at her right now. She is still part animal right now. She may become less human and have no idea why. you are signing her death warrant. Death by insanity
*eventually, there's movement on the street*
*a man comes around the corner, and stops at the edge of the road*
*looks from the left, then to the right, carefully searching for cars*
*then crosses, and sits down opposite*
The Collector: Is the coffee here any good?
. . . It's cold.
The Collector: I see.
It's probably very good when it's warm, but unfortunately, it is cold.
The Collector: . . . Don't look at me like that. I'm sorry I'm late.
My time is valuable, Mr. Reiner. I do not take waiting lightly.
The Collector: I understand. I will be brief.
'Sup guys!
may be distant (finally getting some writing done) but yeah, hey!
(Hello, Lynxia.)
Herrow Lynx!
*Emerald turns around to see Trip and she smirks.*
Emerald: That's what you think. Everytime Deacon gets close to someone, he fakes his death.
He's done it at least 3 times so far but a whole pack of 60 wolves were killed two towns over. Slashed and shadowed to death. No survivors.
Deacon's very much alive.
*Felix appears a few miles into the air and drops*
*feels something swirl deep inside her*
*feels something swirl deep inside her*
Hello!
Did someone say Deacon?
Oh goody. I can rip him in half again.
(Hello, Aretha.)
(Hello Lynxia)
(Hey Ari! what's going on?)
*walks over to em* where are all these werewolves coming from?
Mr. Reiner, the Collector: *peels off his coat*
*begins to empty things, one by one, from its pockets*
*more things than could fit*
*more things than made sense*
*sips the cold coffee*
*enchanted coats are no stranger to her*
*cold coffee, however . . .*
Reiner: . . . Here it is.
*pulls out a small scrap of paper*
*reaches out to take it*
Reiner: *holds it back*
No.
. . .
Reiner: I need my payment, first.
. . .
Reiner: . . .
*finishes the coffee*
*and stands up*
Reiner: *takes a step back*
Hey Aretha!
sooooo, what's going on in Blogland on this fine Friday night? [[it's actually raining here but whatever]]
Felix: *summons bird familiar*
*lands behin Ed*
You told me to protect her and that's what I'm doing, trying to help her keep her sanity
(Deacon's back!)
*Emerald laughs as she stands beside Inky.*
Emerald: You're an eejit if you want to go up against him.
*Faces Inky.* And you sweetie, need to stay far away from him as possible.
He is not a treasure hunt item to be found.
Call in the mind mage, remove me from her memory. Then she can find her mate
Deacon want to go to town??
*grins* Em, do you remember me at all?
Okay Emrald *rthinks of Ed*
Oh, great. Let's go hunt him down, then.
May be distant/msd, though...
Felix: I dot think it works like that Ed.
You became bonded when you... Got intimate
Mr. Reiner . . .
Reiner: *angry now* My payment, or you don't get the ticket. That's the way it is.
*looks at him for a long, long moment*
*then slams both palms onto the table, rattling the silverware*
Reiner: AH!
You are scared of me, Mr. Reiner.
Reiner: *composes himself* Nonsense. You're no different from all the others that I've made deals with. No different at all.
You think you're a good deal-maker, Mr. Reiner?
Reiner: I've lasted this long, haven't I?
True.
But if you won't give me the train ticket, then I'm afraid we find ourselves at an impasse.
*they stand there for a moment, in the rain*
*staring each other down from either side of the cafe table*
Reiner: I don't ask for much.
You ask for more than I can give. I am not a rich woman, Mr. Reiner. What I am, however, is a deal-maker.
Reiner: You think you're a better deal-maker than me?
I know I am, Mr. Reiner.
Reiner: Stop calling me Mr. Reiner, it's creepy.
I'm sorry you feel that way, Mr. Reiner.
*taps the table*
*tap tap*
*tap tap*
Let's negotiate.
hey!
hellooooo!
I'm up for fighting some werewolves too!
I have a question can i change character (so use my new one for a bit) he's a minotaur (needs a name though any suggestions??)
Question, you don't think I wont suffer? I will live in exile
Wait what fighting werewolves? Blake's in.
heya Blake!
I don't know!! D:
nobody is answering my questions, dammnit!
*Emerald looked him up and down.*
Emerald: I've met a lot of people in my time sweetie and I think I would have remembered someone with purple hair.
And you are just not ringing any bells.
(Blake, what did you mean?)
Just thought of a name Brutus.
ARI!!!!!!
Zafira: Deacon?! He's bloody alive?!
Felix: I think of you as a friend
If you go back, help her remember, you can love happily ever after an prevent her death from happening
That seems to be the only thing she knows of...
But ten again, I'm sure I could make her fall for me... *syarts walking off*
*as a gesture of friendship, she chooses to sit down first*
*after a moment's hesitation, Reiner follows suite*
Reiner: I want all 70,000 of those Itori coins, and the name of your employer.
I am at liberty to give neither.
Reiner: Then negotiate all you like.
*reclines in his chair*
*twirling the train ticket in his right hand*
*twirl*
*twirl*
My terms won't change. It's just not going to happen.
I think they will, Mr. Reiner.
Reiner: What are you going to do, offer me my life?
I am not as cold-hearted as all that.
*tap tap*
*tap tap*
Reiner: Then tell me your terms.
*twirl*
*twirl*
Very well.
I think you will find my terms . . . difficult to accept. But they are fair, I assure you. By the end of our little talk, I have no doubt that you'll come to see things my way.
*tap tap*
I am a deal-maker. The finest deal-maker in Blogland, if I may flatter myself, and the reason you will except my proposal is quite-
*shoots Reiner in the head*
(Yeah, you can if you want. Just make sure they aren't horrendously overpowered.)
Tell me everything you remember in the last month.
(Oh that I meant it's perfectly fine that you're staying quiet as we usually end up arguing whenever the two of us talk at the same time. On that note let us forget we ever conversed so as to prevent an argument.)
(well trip he is a minotaur so he is built like a brick shit house and pretty powerful but I'll make sure he is not op)
Is there anyway of getting back my memory?
