And I can't wait to see the new book title!
Hey Lavender!
Hello!
Hi Amy! :)
Hello Tia!
I'm fine and me eyes are slowly melting and drowning in refried beans but overall good!!
Brb
Heya, Amy!
Happy early blogversary, Lavender!!!
How are you, Tia and Lavender?
Thanks! It'll be my third one!
And it's really surprising that DEREK posted today! My first time on, he posted the same day too! Okay, this is a day early, but that's such a coincidence!
I'm... yeah, I'm yeah. *nods slightly*
Are you okay?
I forgot not to poke wounds -_-
Hey, Danni!
Oh thank god a new post.-Zaf
*smile falters*
I'm, uh... I'm okay, not really, sorta half and half... And a little distant.
But hey, new post, new start, right? Sorta? Maybe? Never mind...
Ahem, I'm good.
*smiles slightly*
*keeps hugging Hope tightly*
Remember those times where it was just you and me?
(I'm crying :c)
It's gonna be just me if you leave :c
I'd miss you. You're awesome.
Hey Deathy! Hey Loki! (And Zaf!!)
Rose, do you remember calling Chev?
*sighs*
*hugs Kas tightly back*
Look, there's still tomorrow. How's this, I won't officially decide until then, okay?
I'm excited for the title.
I forgot who Chev was, but I think I've heard of him somewhere.
YES!!! :D something about zombies right?
I know, me too Fabigail!!! :D
Hi Moss!
Oh yeah, hi to Dug and Danni (welcome back) as well.
I'll take what I can get, Hope. Everyone's leaving. Everything hurts. It's two in the morning, I should really be crying myself to sleep now. Good night!
Lav, Chev was Rose's nickname for me!!
I thought DEREK said it would be demons?
Yeah, 16 year-old girl chased across America by demons!
I think I remember that, Dug.
*hugs Kas again*
No crying, please... Sleep well, Kas.
I think I remember that, Dug.
*hugs Kas again*
No crying, please... Sleep well, Kas.
I found it in my notes of funny Blogland quotes.
'Remember that Deathy called you Chev.'
I'm art.
*nodsnods*
Demons sound cool. Hope they'll be able to publish the WHOLE SERIES in America then!
Sorry guys, I have to go too.
*hugs*
Bye!
Goodnight Kas, sheep well! :))
Me too, Lav!!!!
Pie!!!
(You're worth the tears, Hope.)
(Bye, Hopeymoth and Duggy!)
(*hugs Danni and sobs quietly*)
There's this...

*has bad control of her momentum*
*keeps running straight forward until she sees Tia's body*
((Can I try to eat her when she's not here or is that something I shouldn't do?))

(Try not to eat her. I doubt she'd want to come back to a half eaten body...)
And this...
Star said...
"Cigarettes are a lot like hamsters. Perfectly harmless, until you put one in your mouth and light it on fire."
And has anyone noticed the strange things Sophia has said?
(Currently I am imagining Star sat with a ventriloquist doll which looks exactly like her - both of them ranting about Kaladin, alternating sentences between the two.)
(Currently I am imagining Erebus as a black version of a Volkswagen Beetle.)
Silente definitely can't claim to be normal...
(:P)
Oh and Dug NO HUGGING ME! Also its rude to poop and run, you shouldn't do that.
Blogger Silente Tempest said...
I mean sure kill someone, dig up their grave, ruffle through its pockets, pee in their brother's ashes and set alight their family home, THAT I can deal with.
BUT NOT EQUALLY SPLITTING YOUR SOUL?! IT'S A SELF VIOLATION, NEVER MIND RUDE TO THE VICTUM!
Silente said....
(Silente and Vivanus sitting in a tree
Eating Clara Crow-e-ley
First came love
Then comes marriage
Now they've eaten Clara from a golden carriage
Yes?
*is back*
I hate seeing people cry because of me... Am I really worth the tears if I'm the cause for them? I'm sorry...
*hugs Kas, and Danni as well*
Danni, I think you said once after I said I was leaving another time that you were crying too...
I'm sorry for the tears I cause...
If it's not too much to change the subject, I was given two art books from a friend... They look awesome.
*hugs Danni tightly*
I'm sorry... I must be such a bad friend for leaving you guys... For not being there when you needed someone. I'm sorry.
*keeps her arms wrapped around her*
*takes off the shirt* Happy?
(You're all awesome. And leaving is bad. And sleepy. And my brain isn't in a happy place. And you're a good person and the thought of missing you... good night, Hope!)
(Hope, it's your choice. If it makes sense, I can't really argue.
:/)
*hugs Kas*
Yeah... As I said earlier, I don't really want to, but I sort of have to, and then I hate it because I'm not here for you guys and-
Yeah...
I should go eat something. Have a good night, Kas.
*poofs*
So have I....
*is silent for several moments* That....would scare many warriors.
YEEEEEEESSSSSSS
(*crawls back, eyes red rimmed and sore*
I'm sorry for the way I acted and the way I reacted. I'm sorry for any distress I may have caused and any other negative feelings I may have caused. I'm sorry for not being able to discuss the problem in a civilized manner. And I'm sorry that people now want to leave even more.
My thoughts on leaving are the same as some wise persons view on suicide; if you leave it can't get better. It can't get worse but it can't get better.
If you have a collapsing building and all the workers who'd happily been building it while it was stable suddenly quit because it wasn't safe then the building won't get safer, it'll fall and crash and maybe explode and burn.
Just my thoughts on the matter.
Now I should really be sleeping or pretending to sleep or trying to sleep so bye, I'll probably be back soon.
*crawls out to collapse and cry from exhaustion cause sleep won't come and food isn't attractive in any way*)
*hugs Silente, gently rocking back and forth*
Shhhh, it's okay... you were just defending a friend.... it's okay...
*hugs her tightly before fading*
Good night, sleep well :)
...
(*mumbles about wanting Soph and sighs*)
(Hello.)
Lorelei: *she whimpers* Thank you...
Bethany: *she squeezes her hand back*
(*hugs Sophia tightly, as tight as she can*)
Onwa: *looks away and the pain stops*
Write down what she said.
*smiles*
Claire? We're home?
(Trip, why, exactly, should I speak to you? You have done nothing but irritate me the entire time I have been here. The fact that you actually expect me to take notice of someone who means absolutely nothing to me, who I seriously dislike, is entirely unreasonable. I have no intentions of talking to you, no matter how many snide comments you make. However, causing arguments with me will only hurt your friends. So I would advise you to stop. Within two days you have made jokes about my family and uttered spiteful comments. There is absolutely no need for them whatsoever. Yes, saying "Hello" to someone may be polite, but why should I be polite to someone who I do not like?
So yes, continue if you'd like, but you will only be hurting the people you care about whilst doing so. It is entirely your decision - I will not be polite to you either way, rendering it pointless to begin with.)
(Hello, Jaimie. *she hugs her tightly back* That was actually not bad timing.)
Lorelei: *she nods, shivering, starting to make a list*
Claire: You are? Yay pancakes! *she hugs them both*
(*nods, still hugging*)
Onwa: *closes her eyes, making a visible effort to control the shadows still hacking away at her*
*laughs and hugs. Her. Back*
(*she continues to hug her back* I do not think you had to apologise, Jaimie.)
Liliana: *she starts to drop black liquid on to Onwa's back*
Lorelei: Hurt me...
Claire: So how was your mission?
Bethany: A success, I think?
(I did.)
Onwa: *tenses then relaxes as the liquid heals her*
*breathes out and the shadows die down to a low level cloud of agitated mist*
No. You're a baroness, not a chew toy.
*nods*
Definitely a success.
Lorelei: ... Writing this down hurts... If you hurt me it won't seem as bad so I'll be able to do it...
Claire: What happened?
Bethany: I got in a fight with two huge guys and I managed to get her father to stop condemning her for being a vampire... Her mother and grandmother are allowed to go to the wedding... He'll consider it.
Onwa: *sighs*
*pain spreads through Lorelei, each heart beat agony*
*smiles*
She worked a miracle.
*kisses her gently*
Lorelei *she winces, crying out a little* Just a little more...
Bethany: *she kisses her back* I didn't... I read the bible a while ago... I was quoting it... I decided, since they were religious... I'd use it against them.
Onwa: *increases the pain a little bit more, not wanting to kill her*
Shh. Miracle. You performed a miracle.
Lorelei: *she cries out again, starting to sob* B... Better... Hold it there...
Liliana: Perhaps I could take over?
Bethany: But it can be explained...
Onwa: No, its fine. I need this.
Not to me it can't.
*grins, kissing her again*
Liliana: *she nods*
Lorelei: *she whimpers every few seconds, her hand flying over the paper impossibly quickly*
Bethany: *she kisses her back* I love you, Silente.
Onwa: *leans against Liliana, eyes closed but not stopping Lorelei's pain, radiating cold energy*
I love you too Beth..
Anyway, what was someone saying about pancakes?
Lorelei: *she curls up at Onwa's feet, closing her eyes*
Claire: Pancakes!
Onwa: Are you finished?
Yey!
Uh..
Beth can't eat pancakes can she?
Because egg..
(Eggs aren't living, though, and eating them doesn't contribute to suffering).
(But eggs are a product of animals and would be living were they fertilized..)
(And trust me, it probably hurts to squeeze an egg out your a*se..)
(Yeah, but they're not fertilised.
It's only like eating fingernail clippings.
Not that I'm sure why you'd want to do that.)
(Yeah, but they'd do it anyway qhether they were eatenor not. So the eating doesn't contribute to suffering.
I can see why you might count them as associated with living, though.)
(*nods*
I know vegans cant eat eggs cause it's an animal bi-product.)
Lorelei: *she nods quickly*
Bethany: I don't normally eat eggs with baby birds inside?
Onwa: *stops the pain*
But you can eat unfertilzed ones?
(Hello, Star.)
(Yeah . . . I think that's more about not wanting to use animals. Plus factory farming leaves something to be dedired.)
(*nods*
Good point..)
Lorelei: Thank you...
Bethany: I think so?
Hi, Sophia. :)
For the record, I rarely say hi to people. I say hi to Trip because he doesn't come often enough that I've usually been missing him when he appears (note the same effect with Taia), so he probably hasn't observed this, but I'm sure most other people have.
Onwa: You're welcome.
*takes the slip of paper from her*
Oh. In which case Yey! Pancakes!
(I try to say hello, unless I'm distracted..)
(I only speak to people who I like, at least most of the time. I was not aware of a social obligation to talk to everyone. You would not walk down a street and greet every stranger you came across, surely? And regardless, ridiculously unnecessary spiteful comments is not a good way of getting me to talk to you.)
(I talk to pretty much every random stranger I see...I always say hello or at the very least nod or smile..
Although I mainly do that to try and not come off as a youth..)
Lorelei: *she curls up tighter*
*the paper contains various insults, mostly focused around Lorelei being worthless, and also information about body parts which will be sliced off*
Bethany: I could make them?
Onwa: *reads over the list*
What a colourful character. Liliana, I think your assassins may have a target.
*nods*
Yes please.
Liliana: We should go and notify them.
Bethany: Okay. Sweet or savoury?
Onwa: we should.
*teleports them both there*
Sweet!
Liliana: And how about Lorelei? She is now alone, Onwa.
Claire: Yep, sweet.
Bethany: Okay. Syrup or fruit juice?
*she forms some eggs in her hands*
Onwa: ...
*Lorelei and her cat appear there too*
Syrup. Ohh and chocolate spread.
I just said this on email to Sophia, but - remember that speech Alastair made? Remember how he said things had been in his era?
Trip is of that era. He expects everyone to talk to everyone.
Sophia is not of that era. She doesn't expect people to expect her to talk to everyone.
In some parts of the world, particularly the countryside, it's expected that you will say hi to everyone you pass, and it's rude not to. In other places, particularly the city, everyone walks by in their own worlds and if a random stranger said hi to you it would just be weird.
It's just a culture clash.
I think it's cozin the country, you know people more, and besides, ig thete's only two people in the street then you focus more attention on the other person . . . whereas if the street is full of people, the individuals merge into the background.
Lorelei: ... Where am I?
Liliana: With my assassins.
*an Assassin approaches them* We have terminated the target you specified.
Liliana: My mother?
Bethany: Right. That's fine.
(It is not the individuals fading into the background which is the problem. It is the fact I have no intentions of talking to several individuals.)
Onwa: Dont worry. You're safe.
*tilts head at the assassins words*
Hmm. Perhaps it is a different parasite then.
*smiles, nodding*
TWO WEEKS!
You can't announce something two week away!
Then for that whole two weeks, the title will be the only thing I'll be thinking about!
TWO WEEKS!
Any-who, HI!
(Quack.)
Hello there people person!
(Hello, Duck.)
Lorelei: Okay...
Assassin: A paradise?
Liliana: A young girl with no eyes. Your next target.
Assassin: I see. I saw no such person when I killed your mother.
Bethany: *sugar forms in her hands and she places it in a pan*
(...
I'm not a people person.
I'm terrible with people.)
Onwa: Hm. Keep an eye out for her. She may be seen most frequently around Lorelei, perhaps at night.
*smiles watching*
From reading just that bit of the RP, out of context, it sound REALLY WIERD! But I'm sure it makes sense :)
(*nods* it is a tad weird..)
:P I see what you mean, Duck.
@Soph: I know. And Trip feels offended by that. So he retaliates.
Assassin: We will provide protection.
Bethany: *she moves to the sink, pouring some water in*
Onwa: Good.
*makes Claire float*
(Then he should piss me off less.)
Assassin: We shall station people outside her room, like we have with you.
Claire: Hey! No! Put me down!
Bethany: *she pours a bag of sugar into the pan, before filling the kettle and boiling the water* *pours the water, too, into the pan, as well as some slices of lemon that she forms in her hands*
Onwa: *nods*
Good.
*laughs*
But it's funny!
(But he only pisses you off because of that.
This is what happens to my siblings. One of them ends up wronging the other, so they keep on wrongimg each other "because (s)he did so-and-so to me first," and then the more they wring each other, the more they have to get revenge for . . . it's a vicious circle.
I used to try and preach forgiveness to them. Now I just laugh/get irritated.
March 3rd is my Uni Interview...
Damn.
*sighs*
I vote you can go ahead, Elleni. My vote is only rhe vote of one person, though.
Good luck, Gemma. :)
Liliana: People were outside our room?
Assassin: Of course.
Claire: I'm watching her cook!
(*hugs Gem*
Good luck!
@El I would advise you go ahead..but watch your phrasing..?
Or put it on the amigoes blog.)
(I also vote that you go ahead, Elleni.)
Thanks Star...>.<
There are over a thousand people applying and less than 200 spaces...
I'm never going to get in.
I'm not going to get into Uni this year...
Onwa: They're assassins, Liliana. They tend to be good at hiding.
*smiles*
*floats Claire higher*
You can still see.
And what is it, Elleni, that you think is going on?
Because I think that everything is done with.
(I will be back soon.)
(*nods*
@Gem I get the grave feeling it's only just begun..)
(*yawns and waves*)
(*TACKLES THE MIME*
*TICKLES THE MIME*
*COLOURS THE MIME IN*
*UNZIPS THE MIMES MOUTH*)
Aren't there other unis you could try, Gemma?
(*is shocked*
*pushes Jai off and runs for the hills *)
In a non-hostile way, why do you think that, Gemma?
(My questions so often sound hostile when I don't mean them to be . . .)
(*watches her run*
*pouts*)
(*looks at Jai and exaggerates a laughing action*)
(*chases the mime, shaking her fist angrily*)
(*jumps and continues to run*)
(*keeps chasing*
*TACKLES*)
(*glares at Jai *
*raises an invisible mallet in the air and hits her with it^)
(*waves at El*)
(*nods and hugs El*
*freezes*
...
Either I'm insane...
Or my Stepdad is in the house...)
(I don't think I'm insane..
I'm not insane.
Crap. )
(Right.
El, sleep.
Me, panic.)
(*points to a bed for El * )
I think that because it's True, Star. If people come on and start arguments, the only way it'll keep going is if we argue back. And I'm not going to argue back, Don't know about you guys.
No, there is only one Uni close to me that would require one bus ride and take 15 minutes.
Glasgow would take me like an hour... and if it's rush hour and stuff, it would take longer.
(*tries to calm Jai down*)
(*is hid on the landing*
Mums talking to him. So he was meant to be here. Still..
*breathes*
Okay.. note to self, start keeping emergency orange juice and cereal in the room.)
(*tilts head at jai*)
(Okay..Okay..
*keeps hiding*
Right. Woman up!
..
That didn't work.)
What Elleni said in reply to Gemma.
(*waits for a lapse in the conversation*)
Qe can't create a utopia.
But isn't it better to have the nearest thing to one than not have one at all?
(*points thumb up at star*)
*hugs Chloe the Mime* Hi. :)
(*huggles and smiles at star)
@Elleni: . . .
I think the word is more WAS. :P
(It's all good.
I'm back.
I sorta kinda half ignored him.
Oh and Soph
|_______\

Happy?)
(EL!!! SLEEP DAMN IT!!!)
(READING CAN WAIT!!!)
(*watxhes the conversation* )
(SHHHH! EYES CLOSED, HEAD ON PILLOW, REEEEEEELAX!!!)
(*remembers a funny nursery rhyme* *laughs silently*)
(WHY CAN'T YOU RELAX?!)
(*looks at el*
*doesnt know how to reply or anything*
*thinks about nursery rhyme*
*thinks El should sleep*)
This reminds me of when some darkeyed soldiers got stern orders to 'coverse in a lighthearted manner.'
:P
(Shouting at someone to relax isn't very relaxing is it?)
(*wrtes nursery rhyme on a white board*
'Old mother Hubbard went to the cupboard to fetch her poor doggy a bone
When she bent over up jumped rover
He gave her a bone of his own')
Darkeyed soldiers?
*darkeyed workers
Maybe not. But it works on obedient people. :P
Listening to relaxing music helps me relax/feel sleepy.
MEH.
(xD Chloe!!!
Elllllllll sleeeeeeeeeeep.)
(*hugs El back*
Night!!!)
(*grins*)
(*hugglrs el*)
(*pokes the Chloe*)
(*punches the Jai *
*but nt too hard*
*is really weak*)
(Ow!
*glares at the mime*
*punches the mime gently back*)
(*punches face in slow motion*)
(*slow mo falls over*)
:) Fours, Elleni.
I dedicate the Stormlight Archive, and to Kaladin and Dalinar and Rock and Jasnah and Tien and Lirin and Hesina and Adolin and Shallan and Renarin and Navani and Rysn and Szeth and Syl and Pattern and Teft and that cool girl with a name beginning with L and Ym and Eshonai and Shen and Maps and Dunny and Drehy and Moash and Eyeless Jaks and Sigzil and Skar and that nameless bridgeman who talked to Kaladin on his first day and Dallet and Cenn and Gaz and Sadeas and Gavilar and Aladar and Roion and Belat and Tozbek and Yalb and Laral and anyone else.
(Lol you can visibly see who's lighteyed, darkeyed or other just by their names . . . kinda. Kaladin is a lighteyed name)
I also dedicate the Mistorn series - Vin and Kelsier and Elend and Ham and Dockson and Breeze and Spook and Clubs and Sazed and Marsh and OreSeur/whateverhisothernamewas and . . . stuff.
I also dedicate to everyone here who I care about, who I come on for . Thank you.
And I have to go now. Fours!
