Fun Times

Wow.

What a few days.

The Requiem Ball was beautiful chaos. People came in ballgowns and jeans and tuxedos and T-shirts, but everyone was wearing a mask, and everyone was equal. The Bleeding Heart Crypt was where the first book was launched, way back in 2007, and so it was a fitting venue to see off the final part of the series. I laughed, I chatted, I posed for selfies, and then I signed.

And it was a good day.

The signings in Ringwood and Bournemouth were great fun, and of course Bluewater was as manic as ever (five and half hours of signing books and chatting to people... yikes...). On Sunday I did my first event for this tour, and I read out a few bits that had been cut from the first book, all those years ago. And then I signed for a few more hours.

And the response has been exactly what I was hoping for. The one thing that was so vital to me was to give the series a fitting end — an ending it deserved. My mission was to both confirm and confound your expectations, and by what I've been reading online, it looks like I've succeeded.

And the most awesome thing? The lack of spoilers. Sure, there are spoilers out there, but most people have been really considerate of others. Even in the Spoiler Zone to this very blog, folks are content to talk AROUND the subject, rather than address it directly. This is HUGELY appreciated.

The book has been selling really well, from what I hear. I loved the excitement generated around the Black Edition — minions were waiting for stores to open and then rushing inside, trying to find those hidden tomes. It was, in a word, awesome.

And now I'm wrecked.

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

Orpheus: *takes her hand gently*
[-its cold and dark, they're in a forest with a clearing straight ahead. Foliage blocks the from view as the small twelve year old is held suspended in the air by the darkness, coiling around her limbs and body-
*her face seems calm almost despite the steady stream as darkness hacking away at her chest like a knife*
*her rib cage is already visible, covered in cracks and fractures*]

Edward Fletcher said...

Kind of the same here too

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

Manuel: *kisses her back just as passionately, hoping she isn't just like this because of alcohol*

Inky Flame said...

*blushes deeply*...

Edward Fletcher said...

*steps towards her*

Inky Flame said...

Inky Flame said...

*looks up at hin* ...

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

Orpheus: shh..don't make a noise...
[*the darkness pauses at the noise, before starting again, loud cracks ringing out when they hit the rib cage*
*the girl giggles*
*a loud noise is heard to the left and the trees shatter around the noise revealing a person, mortal, crouched there*
*or at least she was, before the darkness crushed and absorbed her, then continued on the procedure, ribs being carried away from the girl*]

Edward Fletcher said...

*looks into her eyes and smiles*

Inky Flame said...

*smiles back at him* I ... Love you *blushes*

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

[*the darkness continues its work, removing ribs now and again, darkness streaming into the body*
*the girl opens her eyes as the darkness wraps itself around her cold unbeating heart*
*her skin begins to bubble almost and darkness rises up out of her pores, coating her skin, hiding the hole in her chest*
*when it fades away the hole is gone, her chest is healed*]

Edward Fletcher said...

*smiles then kisses*

Inky Flame said...

*closes eyes and kisses back*

John said...

Hey guys...

John said...

Hi Ellie... Has Chione been on recently? Like, the past few days?

Alastair Cruciatus said...

She was here once, during the ball, and she asked if you had been here recently.

John said...

Any idea how long ago that was, Alastair?

John said...

Okay... she hasn't been on skype since then so I was wondering if you guys knew anything...

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

We saw her briefly on Sunday.


Also, soy sauce for poofing, cell service got sketchy and I started getting car sick.

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

ELLIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*stops*
So. Hi! How be's yous?! How be's yous eyes?!
(Brb, I gotta unpack.)

John said...

(We don't even HAVE recycling bins at my school.)

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

(Blake, I think it's safe to say your school hates children. I thbj they might even kill babies. Run. Run like you never have before.)

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

Pew.

Conversation nuke.

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

(Hey Trip! Hi Blake! Really no recycling bins? That's carzy! We have recycle and compost!
And El, that guy is not nice. I mean really?!
I'm gonna be distant and Msd. We just got back from Canada (took us 9 hours. We drove..) so I need to unpack and we haunt had lunch so we're having an early dinner.)

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

Hey! I'm good good. Not exactly happy for school but it's not horrible.

Hey Snow! Bduiwlbcbrhyhfbzjxjxhdhejsbxji!

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

Yeah, I went back today. It looks to be a lot of fun, really.

Although my muscles did ache a little for all the walking.

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

I think high school's great. It's when all the drama happens.

And I feed on drama. That and suffering.

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

I go back tomorrow. Last year o middle school.
Gtg, bye!

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

Good night!

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

No, Trip, it sucks. Third year of it, it's so freakin stressful.

First freakin day ok?

My AP Government teacher wants us to print out a picture of a character that defines us.

So, I go down to print, save it to Word and click Print. My printer recieves it and prints out a line. Then, my printer spits out a blank paper, then it eats another one, then jams itself.

So I call for help, as I never had a paper jam. Mom comes down to fix it, it still says paper jam, half hour of trying the thing STILL says paper jam. We reset the printer.

Nothing.

So I can't just give it in electronically, my teacher wants hard copy, and I can't casually email him with a okay my printer broke after one day. Its AP I'd be told your problem.

Now I have V with a printer, we drive over to her house and print it. Mind you apparently this all is my fault according to Mom.

-Zaf

Jophiel said...

Stupid printers...

Amethyst Temerity said...

Hello.

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

Haha yeah, well we need a new one, end of discussion. Mom knows I'll need it for English.-Zaf

Jophiel said...

Hey Amy.

Well, we have heaps of printers around school. You just type in your network username and then print.

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

Our school is cheap, so we usually do all our printing at home.-Zaf

Jophiel said...

If I am what I eat, then I’m still nothing… Most depressing realisation today.

Amethyst Temerity said...

Hello Death. Hello Loki.

Jophiel said...

Well, our school, this year for me, it's $10,000 for our fees.

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

Holy. Hell. I assume this is a private school as they're making you pay. Damn...-Zaf

Hello, Amy. *cuddles Rose*

Amethyst Temerity said...

Ugh... fourth day of school and there is already so much homework. I don't want to do anything. I wish it was summer or a break or something... :(

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

I get it, Amy. First day and I had homework.-Zaf

Amethyst Temerity said...

That sucks...usually first day is just get expectations signed.

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

I know I hate school.-Zaf

Jophiel said...

Very private school. Shitty place. They let in the worst people if they have good grades.

Jophiel said...

School sucks. I think it should be mother teaches daughter, father teaches son.

But then I would be an idiot.

Amethyst Temerity said...

Ugh... beginning of senior year is soo busy. Homework plus college essays. How does anyone expect me to get anything done? D:

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

Oh wow, that's useless....good grades, worst kids.-Zaf

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

Junior year...*dreads the next few months*-Zaf

Jophiel said...

If it wasn't for me, we wouldn't be in this school...

*Pokes Loki*

Stop cuddling me. I'm not in a cuddle mood.

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

I hope I don't have homework one the first day....
But I have so much extra work this year! I have to do tutoring and extra tests and applications for different private schools and it's so much work! I just hope it's worth it.

Amethyst Temerity said...

For me, it was sophomore year that was worst... junior year was actually okay. But I guess it depends on your classes and teachers. :|

Amethyst Temerity said...

Hello Dugglyn!

Jophiel said...

Hey Dug.

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

Why are you in the school, if its just you that got you all in?-Zaf


I want to cuddle my love, I can make it a shirtless cuddle.

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

Hey peeps! Wbd, cleaning room and unpacking.

Jophiel said...

I had the grades to get it. My sister was going into year 7 and my school accepts from grade 5 to 12. So my mum knew that I was acing everything so she took me in, got my sister in as well because of the blood rule.

Well I don't want a cuddle. I want to cry.

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

Sophomore was hell wrapped up and given to you.

English. That's all. Bloody. Stupid. Chicken teacher.

I hate her guts, she hated me for walking into class late because I legit was dizzy and all and it says on my medical I get migraines, so I came to school late. Yeah hated on me ever since.

I skipped out of English the last day we had her, I SKIPPED and cried with JOY.

-Zaf

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

Ah. That's a good thing, to get in at least.-Zaf

Then cry on me, I'm here for you.

Jophiel said...

No it's not. One of the worst decisions I was ever forced into.

No. I'm going to cry on you. Let me go.

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

Ah, so you don't like the school...you're almost out, yes?


*sighs, letting go and Leif appears in her arms* He's stealing my Rose...

John said...

Alright I'm back seems like I didn't miss much Rose want to fight?

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

Blake, not now, she has our son who is currently appearing and vanishing to random places.

Leif: *vanishes, appering on Blake's head*

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

I don't want to start high school. I just got used to me middle school and now I have to move? Not fair....

John said...

*Looks up at the teleporting baby*

Well that's a neat power, a born teleporter eh?

*Gently takes the child off his head and holds him*

Hey there kid, for something that spawned from Loki you're actually pretty cute.

Amethyst Temerity said...

Hello Blake.

John said...

Hey Amy.

*He tickles Leif under the chin, grinning*

I should probly get my own kids, Chi's ice clone is only so good.

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

Leif: *giggles, teleporting onto Amy's head*

It's more like what I can do, Blake. He's made an illusion this morning...

Jophiel said...

Blake, I’m going to have to take a raincheck on that fight.

*She looked at Leif with a sad smile*

Loki…

Jophiel said...

John said...

Illusion of what exactly?

*In a flash of light he's gone and back, holding Lucas and Lira. One in each arm*

Lira: *Pulls on daddy's hair*

Lira, I need that...

Amethyst Temerity said...

*doesn't move*
Head! Head! Someone!
*panics*

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

*Leit appears in his mother's arms again*

I understand, Rose. I have Kari...*picks up his daughter*

((Do you want to play Kari?))

Jophiel said...

And Blake, don't call my child a 'spawn'. Because that's not what he is. He is a baby. A little prince.

Amethyst Temerity said...

I have to go now. Dinner to eat and homework to do. Ugh... bye...

Jophiel said...

(Sure.)

*She cuddled Leif tightly to her chest and nuzzled his belly*

*Kari gurgled up at her father and reached her hand up. She opened and closed her fist, trying to grab onto Loki's face*

John said...

No offence to you or the child but what gives him the title of prince? Or is that just you being a mother.

Lucas: *flails his arms at Lira, reaching for his sister*

Oh alright but don't wander off...

*Sets the twins down in the grass, they play back and forth while giggling*

Jophiel said...

Jophiel said...

Because Loki is king, Blake. He will always be king. It is a matter of time before he makes his role offical.

Right, Loki?

John said...

"King of Earth" I assume? You'll have a lot of people to get through.

*An amused smirk crosses his face for a moment as he sits cross-legged by the twins*

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

Not my face, Kari. *tickles her under the chin*

*Leif starts giggling, latching onto his mother's hair*


I am an Asgardian prince, they are my children, they recieve the title.

John said...

(Oh I LOVE IHOP! :D)

Jophiel said...

*She stiffened at Blake's smirk and her nostrils flared*

If you want to do this with children around, Blake, we will.

*Kari grabbed Loki's index finger and started to chew on it*

Leif, sweetie, please don't pull mummy's hair. That hurts.

*She took Leif's hand carefully in hers and pulled it away from her hair*

John said...

Don't give me the nostril-flare of death, i'm just noting on how utterly impossible it'll be for Loki to ever rule Earth with the rest of us around. Remember his last "invasion"?

*He holds the twins upright by placing his hands on their backs, making sure they can't fall over backwards as they play*

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

Very well, my finger tastes amazing, yes?

*Leif watches his mother, looking at their hands in awe*


Zanida: Blake; let it go.

Jophiel said...

That's because I stopped it!! I didn't want to see everyone hurt! I did something heroic! But no. It doesn't look like that to you.

*She flicked her hair and smiled tightly at Blake*

You're on. Let's do this.

Jophiel said...

*Kari giggled and thrashed in Loki's arms as she chewed*

*Rose grinned down at Leif and squeezed his hands softly in hers*

Hey babe.

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

Zanida: *uses the cube, to freeze Blake* Bastard.

Jophiel said...

Aw, Zan! You ruined my fun!

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

Tiny person....very tiny...*isn't bothered bu the chewing*

*Leif uses his other hand and pokes his mother*

John said...

OH MY GOSH IT'S THUNDERING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BBBBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!
(We rarely get thunder and lightning. Except we have got a lot this year.)

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

Zanida: I'm going to go crazy and murder the bastard. It's bad enough I'm useless with my ability....I'd give anything to regain it...Alastair knows it.

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

(Also, if anyone cares, New post on me blog!)

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

It's thundered here a bit.-Zat

John said...

*The ice cube glows with a bright light, slowly melting into a puddle of water. If he were still demonic I'm pretty sure fire would be shooting from his eyes as he glared at Zanida*

My children could have been caught in that. Give me one good reason not to kill the people you care about and then only when you beg for it, kill you too.

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

(Zanida, it's carzy. :P)

Jophiel said...

*She laughed and blew raspberries on Leif's stomach*

*Kari stopped chewing on his finger and gurgled up at him. She reached for his face again as her eyes widened and she yawned widely*

Jophiel said...

Because, Blake. I will kill both of your children right here and right now if you lay a finger on Zanida. Is that a good enough reason? Because your children's lives depend on your next actions?

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

I dedicate this page to carzy. It is going to be the next big thing! Trust me, I already got people saying it.
Also, I dedicate this page to a good idea how much you can be back in my head of the surfer dude is not a bad thing at Silente Tempest Williams said that I was going to the ground and then we went up her nose and eat your brains out of the surfer blood snow Stromberg first time in her hand on my phone but overall good good good good good good good good idea to get a lollipop face-to-face with my phone. Like!

Jophiel said...

(Hear hear...?)

John said...

*His glare turns to Rose slowly, as he locks eyes with her gravity seems to intensify in the area, and his body glows*

You take a single step in this direction, and I show you how much I've been holding back against you.

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

Sleep...

Leif: *yawner, falling asleep*



Zanida: Because the ice was aimed at you, and therefore it only hurts you.

Jophiel said...

*She lifted her chin and looked at Blake carefully as she slowly restored the gravity around herself*

Do you realise my son is in my arms. Don't even bloody think about doing something like that again. Ever. Not when my son is right here.

Jophiel said...

(It's a bluff. Rose would never hurt a child. Ever.)

*Kari snuggled into Loki's arms and closed his eyes. She fell asleep quickly, her mouth hanging open*

*Rose carefully held Leif as he started to yawn. She kissed his forehead*

My little prince...

John said...

Do what? I'm just sitting here.

(He's not consciously DOING anything really, you pissed him off and his magic is a little out of whack. It's manifesting in what can be compared to a heavy blanket pressing down on the area.-J)

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

Calm. Both of you. *lets Kari sleep*

Leif: *sleeps*

((Zaffy msd to sleepy land....-Zaf

Jophiel said...

*She shook her head and looked back at Loki*

I'll take them home. Then we'll teach Blake never to mess with us, right...?

*She smiled hopefully at him and then shuffled Leif into one arm, making room for Kari*

Jophiel said...

Loki, can you feel it? I can. I don't like it when people mess with those I love. Especially if I've tried to kill them before and they're messing with my twins...

*She shot a dirty look at Blake*

(Okay, Zaf.)

John said...

*He takes a deep breath, the glow on his body fading and the air pressure returning to normal*

You two can try all you like, nobody here has beaten me and I don't plan on that changing.

*A burst of light signals his disappearance with the twins, a moment later he's back; sword and shield equipped*

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

Love this parody! Not quite as good as mine (i only added the last line but it's the one I heard first. I didn't actually write it) but still good.


http://m.youtube.com/?#/watch?v=78g0SyQjU1s

Jophiel said...

You're so dead, Blake. This time I wont hesitate to crush you.

(It's not coming up, Chev.)

John said...

You say that every time, and every time I end up healing your battered body.

Jophiel said...

I was holding back. I wasn't trying to actually kill you. But now, I don't have a slight problem.

*She took Kari in her second arm, who scrunched up her little face when she was moved, and took them to the house.

She reappeared a few moments later, a silver gauntlet on her left wrist*

Let's play.

John said...

You say that every time too...

*He stands with his back to her, taking his sword and shield in hand.*

Come when you wish.

Jophiel said...

*She smirked, raised the gauntlet, and tapped a blue jewel on top. A blot of energy shot out from her hand and towards Blake's back*

Well, now I got some new toys. This is my favourite, it's the most fun.

John said...

*He spins, slapping the shot aside with his shield and retaliating with a slash of golden energy from his sword*

New toys, old tricks.

*Blake raises his shield and charges*

Jophiel said...

*She held up her gauntlet to block the swipe and leaped up into the air to avoid the charge. She landed on the other side of him and smirked*

Miss me, miss me!

*She sent another bolt, this one aimed for his feet*

John said...

*He leaps into the air, aiming a spin kick for her face as the flat of his blade knocks the blast back at her*

You seem under the impression I was trying to hit you.

*Chains laid as he had charged snap up around her ankles*

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

(Hmm, it works for me. Well it's another parody of frozen, do you want to hide a body? It's funny.)

Jophiel said...

*She cursed and ducked the kick. The energy blast hit her gauntlet and soaked into it, making her shiver with the extra power*

Ah, tricky bugger.

*She didn't fight the chains. Instead, she pulled a flat little disk from her pocket and blew over the top. It started to pulse and quiver in her palm. It only took a few moments before the chains were disintegrating around her ankles*

See, this is a cool one. Anything that doesn't contain my oxygen have hasn't been in contact with my breath and is against my skin, it breaks.

So try it again, my dear. See where that gets you.

Jophiel said...

(Wait. What...?)

John said...

Two things. One, don't call me "dear", Chione will kill you if I don't. Two, whatever you say.

*He sword becomes a golden blur as he fires wave after wave of energy at her*

John said...

((His*))

Jophiel said...

Got ya, darling.

*She snickered and moved her arm, letting the gauntlet absorb the energy. It started to glow an eerie shade of blue*

Ohh... Look, I think you made it happy.

*She spread her fingers and tapped the jewel again. A massive wave of energy burst from it and towards Blake, sending her flying backwards with the recoil*

Oh... Fun.

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

(So I was up and in my room and someone knocked on the door. As normal I said someone's at the door! And my dad said thanks Dugglyn! I totally didn't know! (Sarcasm cause he was right there) and then he calls up, Dugglyn! I think your, your, thing is here! The uh...uh..
And then of course my brain tries to figure out what it is and I automatically think OMG TDOTL! I can't believe it's here! So I rush downstairs all excited and then my dad says retainer! Your retainer is here! I just deflate.)

Jophiel said...

(Aw... I hate those moments...

But on the bright side, you have a two storey house. I don't...)

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

(The link was to a video of do you want to hide a body? It was really funny! I'm not sure why it wasn't working. It worked for me.)

John said...

And you called me the tricky bugger.

*He crouches and slams his shield into the ground, reinforcing it with multiple walls of light as the blast flies towards him. The walls break down one after another and the shield is blow back. As the dust settles, nothing is left but a shield laying in the dirt. And then a voice comes from behind Rose*

Ahem, good try.

*The point of his sword rests against the back of her neck*

John said...

((Blown*))

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

(That's kinda a random bright side but yes, I enjoy it. And me and my brother get our own rooms. I would hate to share a room.
Also, my room is almost twice the size of his! Haha sucker!
*sticks her tongue out at her brother*

Jophiel said...

(I'll look it up in a sec, Chev!)

*She snickered at his final words and watched the blast pass over him. She stared at the shield laying on the ground and let out a cry of victory, which was cut short by Blake's voice behind her*

Aw. Damn it. Well, ain't that a bugger. How'd you survive that?

*She blew on the disk again. A haze came up from the disk and traveled up to Blake's sword, intent on crumbling it*

Jophiel said...

(Well, I have to share a tiny room with my brother... It sucks...)

John said...

Oh come on, you know I can teleport.

*He puts a bit more pressure on the blade, digging into her skin*

Word to the wise, I would not mess with this sword.

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

(Yeah, that doesn't sound fun...
*juggles Deathy*

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

(**huggles
*glares at auto correct*

Jophiel said...

*She winced as blood trickled from the wound. The haze traveled to the tip of his sword and tried to crumble it*

I completely forgot that. And I'll mess with the sword all I want.

*She made a mental note to ask Loki how to use his sceptre and then, with another wince, dropped her head and tucked it under her chest. She sword left her neck and she darted backwards and got to her feet*

You're a little bugger, ain't ya?

*She sent another blast of energy towards Blake*

Jophiel said...

(Oh my God, Chev. That song is amazing...)

Because I don't like it and it was just thinking about Skulduggery Pleasant and the first time I ate a squirrel in the face flavored lollipop face-to-face with my phone but I'm not sure if she wants to hide a body of water balloon boy who was going back out of her eyes!

John said...

*The blade begins breaking apart, as the tip shatters a beam of power on par with Blake's Excalibur erupts from it, arcing back and flowing in to him at random points. The rest of the sword turns dark and crumbles, leaving only a hilt to be dropped from Blake's hand as he falls to his knees, staring up at the sky slack-jawed*

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

(I know right!
Brb)

Jophiel said...

*She looked down at Blake, sent another half-hearted blast towards him and raised her other hand. The gravity around him started to increase to the point his bones would quiver as they tried to stay intact*

Now, to be fair, this is your only chance. Give up, or you'll die.

John said...

*His hand flies up with unearthly speed, smashing into the blast and breaking it apart*

I told you... not to break that sword...

*Still kneeling, his body erupts in a blinding light as the ground around him tears apart. A single white and gold wing tears free of his cloak (Left side) and his glowing gaze levels with Rose's eyes*

Jophiel said...

*She swallowed thickly and took a step back at the sight of his wing*

I... I'll take that as a no...

*She glared down at Blake, but it wavered as fear came into her eyes*

Shit.

John said...

*He simply disappears for a moment, nothing but a few feathers left behind in the wind. Then his fists smash into Rose from the back with more force than Blake has ever been capable of before*

Jophiel said...

*She looked at the feathers then screamed in pain as his fist shattered many of her ribs on impact. She flew forward, bounced and rolled until she was on her back. She couldn't breathe*

John said...

*He appears before here once more, hand around her throat as they lift off the ground, floating a few feet in the air*

Do you have any idea what you've done? All of us will be dead in a matter of days because of you!

*He whips her above his head and hurls her back to the ground with inhuman strength*

Jophiel said...

*She shook her head at him before she was smashed back to the ground. She cried out as something in her back popped. She could feel that one of her lungs had collapsed. It hurt to breathe, but she forced herself to so the black that was creeping into her vision would leave*

What... Did I... Do...?

Jophiel said...

(Yay. I killed Blogland.)

John said...

I am not supposed to have this power in me... they will obliterate EVERYTHING so long as I die in the destruction! Our friends, our families, our homes, EVERYTHING!!!

*His fist glows like a miniature star as he plummets back down towards her*

((All shall be explained, Ellie.))

John said...

((I'm having a really hard time finding a picture of a one-winged angel that isn't Sephiroth, female, or gay.))

Jophiel said...

*She screamed as he hit her again, but it was cut off by a savage cough tearing from her chest. Blood leaked from her nose and mouth and tears sprang to her eyes*

I'm... Sorry! Convert it... Into something! Like... Necro...

*Her head dropped heavily to the ground and her coughs started to subside, but blood still poured it's way from her face*

John said...

*He growled, a sound of pure anger, and held his palm against her abdomen. A glow encompassed his hand and her body, and her wounds heal almost instantly*

It's not as simple as necromancy. We have three days at best before they notice and destroy everything. I suggest we prepare like we never have before.

Jophiel said...

*She gasped and shot up, looking around quickly*

Yeah, well, you knew full well what that disk did. I showed you with the chains. And Loki, the twins and I can go live in Asgard, so it's not too much of a worry.

John said...

*He takes hold of her throat again, smashing her back against the ground*

I have not forgotten that you threatened my children, I simply have bigger problems at the moment. You will stay here or I will be following you to Asguard, I wonder how long Loki would last against me like this?

Jophiel said...

*She yelped and her hands tightened around his as she tried to pried his hands away*

I... I... Will go... You're not... Coming... With... And Loki... He could... Kick... You're ass...

(Fabi...

*Cuddles*)

John said...

He and his sister together could not handle my base form, I daresay he would die. In any event, it won't matter if we can't push back what is to come. Have you ever witnessed a cleansing by the archangels?

Jophiel said...

*She shook her head and grabbed his pinky finger, pulling it backwards to make him let go of her throat*

No... And Thor... He'd... Probably... Come... For Zan...

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

Purple! I'm back!

Jophiel said...

(Hey Chev!)

John said...

Bah, what do Asguardians know of this? They are too caught up in a religion based around themselves. When the ones who tore off my other wing and sealed away this one come, anything they deem related to the renewal of my feathered appendage will be counted as an enemy.

*He glanced down at her grip on his finger, sighed, and let go*

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

(Hey Deathy!
*cuddles*
You're beautiful (inside and out. And yes I do know because I saw a picture of you on your blog!) And amazing.)

Jophiel said...

*She gasped and sucked in all that sweet, sweet oxygen. She waited until her breath had become even before she spoke*

Asgardians know quite a bit. And they'll take me to Asgard, because Loki said that I could live there.

*She looked up at his wing and frowned*

So... I'd be killed on sight because I'm kinda responsible for it... Shit.

Jophiel said...

(Ew. No.

I'm sorry, but I hate what I look like.

*Returns the cuddle*)

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

(I'm sorry, I was thinking out loud, I guess. I'll have to remember not to do that in the future. Anyway, bye.)

Jophiel said...

(That bye better mean a temporary bye, not a forever bye, Fabi.

<3 )

John said...

((Okay it's taking way too long to explain this through RP and I gotta get to bed, cause school >:c

This Blake, as I have mentioned before, is half angel on his mothers side. From his father he inherited his love of fighting and (to put it nicely) made a lot of problems with his power. In order to punish him and reduce the risk of any further... ah... "incidents" the archangels tore off his right wing and sealed the rest of his power (left wing) inside his sword where he couldn't use it all. Now that he has that again peo- er, yeah people are not gonna be happy. They'll see it as a failure and so more drastic measures must be taken. In this case, obliteration.))

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

(But you're really pretty! And I won't say it if it wasn't true because there are plenty of other nice things (that are also true!:))
I could say about you!)

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

(Bye Fabi! But remember, you can always think aloud!
*huggles*)

Jophiel said...

(Goodnight, I think, Blake!!)

(Yay!! I'm responsible for the death of Blogland!!)

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

This is going to be the new face.
:P',',',',',',',',',',',',,'',',,',',',','
(It's spitting.
