When I say 'destroy the gender binary' I mean 'stop viewing it as the default for everyone and allow people to explore their gender without mocking them and constantly telling them that they're wrong'
1: So, like, do you identify as male or female or both or neither or A.I. or trans or what?
2. What the actual fuck does it matter? Can I not fucking be who I want to be? My DNA is unique. I am unique. My life, everything about me, is unique? Why would I EVER pick a title which has no use whatsoever, when everything I am, everything I do, can be done without a constricting title?
(I mean that whichever title you pick, it has no use. I mean, what are you going to do when you have a male friend and one day they say they're female?
Look how much I care.
*does the limbo*
I don't care. Why would I?
And I find since no title fits because everyone is unique, why bother?)
@Tia: I would change the pronouns and name I used to refer to them to whatever they identified with. Like, if someone wants to identify with a gender, that's their right, just like it's yours not to.
Yeah, I mean, I like being male. It's a formative part of me. Things that separate us also make us unique, and just throwing how we describe our uniqueness out of the window is a horrid thought for me. I'm not saying other people need the system, but if they don't need it there's no need for them to destroy it. That has no percievable benefits for anybody.
I don't, I've been blind for at least seventy nine years. The Fool nods earnestly, pulling their moth-eaten hood over their eyes. And don't call me Earnest, italics.
I just saw an article that was saying something about being more tolerant and aware of other genders. And I thought no, screw that. Why are we even using gender pronouns? Let's just not. They do not change anything.)
Sheesh, gendered pronouns change quite a bit. Without 'em, the previous sentence would've started with "esh," which doesn't have NEARLY the effect that She-esh does.
@Tia: And if you don't want to use gendered pronouns, that's cool for you, and I'll use they/them for you if you want, but you don't get to decide if I get to identify as female or not(actually at this point I'm not 100 percent sure that I DO identify as female, but the point stands)
Trip!!!!!! *tacklehugs* Did you read back? On the newest post I typed up when I create Blip again and we all had a little (I almost started crying again) laugh and giggle.
*I mean, I'm not ignorant, I will be more aware and stuff, I just mean that we shouldn't be bothered by this. Just have our sex and that's it.
But I mean... I don't really care about oxygen and plants, but do we need them? Yes. Without them, we'd die.
But what if we got rid of genders? Would anyone really care that now they're not called male or female anymore? That they're just allowed to be themselves without having a title?
They make me me. Being a he as opposed to she or xe or whatever pronoun you use for yourself (that is a pronoun, yes? I make no secret of knowing a bunch of mostly useless stuff about things but there was a severe gap in my education in terms of verbal description) is very important to who I am. Being a he also helps tell people very basic information about me, which is mostly wrong, but gives me a springboard.
I haven't the time to read back these days. Well,by these days I mean for about a year and a half. Too much stuff going on. I skim back from time to time after important events, though.
By saying "use only sex", you're implying that you would use pronouns that fit with a person's sex, no matter what gender they identify with. Sorry if I misread that.
And they don't, trans*(with the asterisk) is used to all non-cis people.
(Being a female is a part of me. Of course I would care if I would no longer be classified as a female. Definitions and names are important to me. Gender is important, and necessary. It is ridiculous to consider getting rid of it, and doing so would alienate thousands of people from society.)
@Trip If so, you can marry him instead. April 11, 2014 at 8:15 PM

(That would depend on the affected area, Trip. I was at least hoping for somewhere which would not be affected, and the insanity confined to a small area.)
I think it would be totally great if we got rid of the gender binary and gendered pronouns. I wamt to try and do that (unless people ask me to refer to them as a pronoun) in my language, actually. @Tia: Some people have more of a sense of gender than others. I, personally, have a sense of gender identity, and I'm female. I think we shouldn't give pronouns by sex, either. Because it's atupid, and also because sex is far from exact and you can't actually get close yo knowing it without brain scanning people, and even then it can be subjective.
I think the gender binaty is as necessary to our system as the faction system is to the Divergent world - it's a rather oppressive system we could live without. Yay for ibdividual unstrcutured sludge.
The Fool drops into a surprisingly graceful bow. I get that a lot, risk of the trade. Can't count the time I've nearly been ripped apart by vicious groupies.
The Fool pauses for a beat. Or were those Honduran rebels? Can never remember.
I meant that sex would be dependant on what reproductive organs you have, basically the medical side of stuff.
Whereas gender is what you identify as. But that's the problem. Why should you identify? When was the last time you cared about someone's gender? Did you ever go "Ah, so he's cis" or "Oh, I thought he was cis, but okay, it's cool."
And did you care? What does it matter to you what someone identifies as?
Really, it shouldn't be a gender title or label, but more a collection of qualities that the person has, and because they're unique, other people (who may have had the same title) may have wildly different qualities. Which is okay.
@Kes: Of course. :) Or I'd try to remember to. That's just be mean, otherwise. This would be a BIG language chamge so, so it would take some implementing.
Well, I'VE always been of the opinion that people aren't especially unique. I mean, there's been how many billions up to this point? Gotta be at least a couple duds in there, if we're basing it off of Heisman's Pokemon Card Theory which I completely did NOT make up justnowhowdareyouaccusemeofthat!
Also, I know you barely pay attention to gender, but for a lot of people it does make a major difference and they really do think of people differently based on their gender - to the pount where males and females seem to be practically different species. The gendering of objects, too. Not wamting to look the gender you aren't. That matters to some people.
I don't think gender SHOULD make suxh a big difference, I'm just pointing out that people DO care.
(Star, if you started doing that, I would like to be known as a her, rather than anything else.
Tia, I really do not care what anyone else identifies as. That is not why I believe gender is a good thing. However, Tia, you would have to title the qualities also. So you would really not gain anything.)
You aren't a problem Kas, you're causing us to talk to each other about how we think differently. And it isn't a title, it's a way of defining who I am to me. i.e, me.
I think we should get rid of tye gender binary, I'm just saying that gender does matter. Which is, in fact, WHY we should get rid of the binary. Not that I know how one would go about doing that.
I meant that every person is unique. Gender identity of one cissexual does not equal the gender identity of every cissexual.
Are not all cissexuals unique? Is not everybody unique? Just look at the diversity!
So really, cis is a quality, not a defining characteristic. The defining characteristic is gender and it shouldn't be. It should, at best, be another characteristic.
I'm okay with a person being cis, male, and heterosexual, all qualities (not the right word, I think.)
You may as well be an AH-1Z Viper attack helicopter if that's what you identify as. But that's not going to change how I treat you because I know you're unique, and I will not compare you to other people who share the label you have or chose for yourself because you are one of a kind, a one of a kind person who deserves to be recognised as such.

(I once had a YouTube comment on Adele - Skyfall piano version that was just "James Bond?" and it had 160+ likes and was the top comment and I got so many replies like "No, this is Patrick!" and "No, this is Sparta!" and dozens more, but I can't share them because the video was deleted :c)
Also, I have to go online to get the text coz I 'an't got the book withme (see, I'm even INCONVENIENTLY writing this voluntary essay wtf) so I might spam you with OMAM quotes because AWHHHHHHHHHHHH LENNIEEEEEEE.
From the darkness Lennie called, “George—you asleep?” “No. Whatta you want?” “Let’s have different color rabbits, George.” “Sure we will,” George said sleepily. “Red and blue and green rabbits, Lennie. Millions of ‘em.”
George’s voice became deeper. He repeated his words rhythmically as though he had said them many times before. “Guys like us, that work on ranches, are the loneliest guys in the world. They got no fambly. They don’t belong no place. They come to a ranch an ’ work up a stake and then they go into town and blow their stak e, and the first thing you know they’re poundin’ their tail on some other ranch. They ai n’t got nothing to look ahead to.” Lennie was delighted. “That’s it—that’s it. Now tell how it is with us.” George went on. “With us it ain’ t like that. We got a future. We got somebody to talk to that gives a damn a bout us. We don’t have to sit-in no bar room blowin’ in our jack jus’ because we got no place else to go. If them other guys gets in jail they can rot for all anybody gives a damn. But not us."
I'm gonna rewrite that for you without the random new lines.

Yeah, well, I know I already have two undedicated pages, but I wanted to carry on spamming you all with OMAM quotes, and so I thought I'd comment and dedicate this page to Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck coz it's cool. :) And a lot better than Heroes by Robert Cormier, and a damn lot better than Romeo and Juliet imo, although Inspector Calls by . . . J. B. Priestley gives it a run for it's money, I believe. :P
Hello, Jaimie. *cuddles her tightly, kissing her forehead*)
Liliana: Probably trying to find it?
Hadeon: *it hisses, transforming into a hydra, breathing eighteen streams of fire at Onwa, wriggling from her grip*
Phaestra: *she appears in a flash of light on the Hydra's back, drawing her sword, slamming it down into its spine* *her hands glow white, a harsh light shining beneath the hydra's skin before it simply dissolves away into scraps*
See we've got the question "Do dreams do the characters in 'Of Mice and Men' more harm that good?" and I want to argue that it's better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all but I don't think I can do that with the quotes available, so I mgiht just finish this essay and then give it a stab.
Idk - however much time I waste on this, it's all revision, so there is no wasted time. O_O That feels weird.
Liliana: Are you planning on becoming your normal size again, my love?
Phaestra: Apologies for the intrusion, but Phraelia's physical form was deteriorating. When we first trapped Hadeon, we invested a lot of energy in keeping him trapped in the body, even when it died. We put no energy into Phraelia, and her physical form could not sustain itself. She is in my realm, and I am attempting to keep her alive. Thanks to Minerve putting enough energy into Hadeon to sustain his body, but not enough to trap him after death, he has reverted back to a static force. That means he will pose a threat in the future, but not while he recovers.
Typical school, though. Sir came over today and told us that to get the top marks we have to be original and perceptive. Yeah. Yeah, I was all being original and perceptive in year nine, but then you came along and trained me to write essyas like everyone else, which I couldn't do, and now you're telling me that what I did originally was correct but now I can't remember how I did it. And I've been saying this for the past two years, because this happened EVERYWHERE. I was doing /fine/ in year nine and then you screwed me up in pretty much every aspect of English and now you tell me that screwing me up made me /worse/. Thanks a bunch. -_-
They're also telling us that we should be really controversial because it'll get us better marks (they say that to us all the time in English), but I morally disagree with being controversial just to be liked and I also have issues with arguing for things I don't believe in, so I think I'm just going to carry on doing what I do and letting my natural originality and perceptiveness shine out. I'm not letting myself be screwed up again, hopefully. At least now I can be original and perceptive without feeling like I'm doing it wrong because they told us to just do it like everyone esle at the beginnign of year ten shidoansdioamsakm.
Sorry. My English rant must be getting a bit old now, but it's my Subject To Complain About this year (I have one eveyr year hehe).
"We’d have a setter dog and a couple stripe cats, but you gotta watch out them cats don’t get the little rabbits.” Lennie breathed hard. “You jus’ let ‘em try to get the rabbits. I’ll break their God damn necks. I’ll . . . . I’ll smash ‘em with a stick.” He subsided, grumbling to himself, threatening the future cats which might dare to disturb the future rabbits.
(I am not an expert on the book, but perhaps you could mention that it is unlikely that George would have killed Lennie if he had not died happily - and their future dreams was what he used to make him happy? If he was unhappy, he may as well have left him to the others.)

Hey Trip!
When I say 'destroy the gender binary' I mean 'stop viewing it as the default for everyone and allow people to explore their gender without mocking them and constantly telling them that they're wrong'
1: So, like, do you identify as male or female or both or neither or A.I. or trans or what?
2. What the actual fuck does it matter? Can I not fucking be who I want to be? My DNA is unique. I am unique. My life, everything about me, is unique? Why would I EVER pick a title which has no use whatsoever, when everything I am, everything I do, can be done without a constricting title?
1. Robot scum.
2. *bar fight*
(I am back.)
Bethany: By calling her a moron? Very helpful... *she sighs* Please stop insulting her, Onwa.
@Tia: Is that from something?
Hey Sophia!
Wb Soph.
I know, I was talking about the deleting genders thing. I know what gender binarity is and how little sense it makes.
(I rather like my gender, also.)
(I mean that whichever title you pick, it has no use. I mean, what are you going to do when you have a male friend and one day they say they're female?
Look how much I care.
*does the limbo*
I don't care. Why would I?
And I find since no title fits because everyone is unique, why bother?)
I think that if you want to identify with a gender than you should be able to, and if you don't than you shouldn't have to
@Tia: I would change the pronouns and name I used to refer to them to whatever they identified with. Like, if someone wants to identify with a gender, that's their right, just like it's yours not to.
(There is a difference between sex and gender. You may be male in one and female in the other. There is nothing to say otherwise?)
Gender's for squares. And non-quadrilateral people with gender, I suppose.
Yeah, I mean, I like being male. It's a formative part of me. Things that separate us also make us unique, and just throwing how we describe our uniqueness out of the window is a horrid thought for me. I'm not saying other people need the system, but if they don't need it there's no need for them to destroy it. That has no percievable benefits for anybody.
@Sophia: Correct.
Hello Fool!
@Trip: Yep yep yep
Haha.
I see what you did there.
I don't, I've been blind for at least seventy nine years.
The Fool nods earnestly, pulling their moth-eaten hood over their eyes.
And don't call me Earnest, italics.
(It's not from anything, Kes.
I just saw an article that was saying something about being more tolerant and aware of other genders. And I thought no, screw that. Why are we even using gender pronouns? Let's just not. They do not change anything.)
Sheesh, gendered pronouns change quite a bit. Without 'em, the previous sentence would've started with "esh," which doesn't have NEARLY the effect that She-esh does.
(There are differences in sexes and genders, and I believe those differences should be celebrated, not crushed.)
@Tia: And if you don't want to use gendered pronouns, that's cool for you, and I'll use they/them for you if you want, but you don't get to decide if I get to identify as female or not(actually at this point I'm not 100 percent sure that I DO identify as female, but the point stands)
Trip!!!!!!
*tacklehugs*
Did you read back?
On the newest post I typed up when I create Blip again and we all had a little (I almost started crying again) laugh and giggle.
@Fool: NICE
Hey Gemma!
*I mean, I'm not ignorant, I will be more aware and stuff, I just mean that we shouldn't be bothered by this. Just have our sex and that's it.
But I mean... I don't really care about oxygen and plants, but do we need them? Yes. Without them, we'd die.
But what if we got rid of genders? Would anyone really care that now they're not called male or female anymore? That they're just allowed to be themselves without having a title?
They make me me. Being a he as opposed to she or xe or whatever pronoun you use for yourself (that is a pronoun, yes? I make no secret of knowing a bunch of mostly useless stuff about things but there was a severe gap in my education in terms of verbal description) is very important to who I am. Being a he also helps tell people very basic information about me, which is mostly wrong, but gives me a springboard.
@Tia: Yes, because for some people(a lot of people), the gender they identify with IS part of themselves.
Also, "Just have our sex and that's it. "? So you want to purposefully misgender trans* people?
*is tacklehugged*
I haven't the time to read back these days. Well,by these days I mean for about a year and a half. Too much stuff going on. I skim back from time to time after important events, though.
How angry did Blake get?
@Trip: Yeah, xe is a pronoun that people use. The most common ones besides he/him and she/her are they/them and xe/xir.
*Bursts out laughing*
How angry did he get? One second :3
The Fool spreads their arms, launching glitter into the outer atmosphere.
... Calculamations were a bit off on that one, but I think you get the point. I'm a professional Them, technically making me two or more people!
Kes? You lost me. I was talking about sex, not gender.
And why they gotta be trans?
By saying "use only sex", you're implying that you would use pronouns that fit with a person's sex, no matter what gender they identify with. Sorry if I misread that.
And they don't, trans*(with the asterisk) is used to all non-cis people.
*waits excitedly* *acknowledges Adam*
*bows to the professional Them*
*as in, why are the trans people the only ones you brought up? Why them?
Gah you lost me so bad.
Ah.
(Being a female is a part of me. Of course I would care if I would no longer be classified as a female. Definitions and names are important to me. Gender is important, and necessary. It is ridiculous to consider getting rid of it, and doing so would alienate thousands of people from society.)
Thousands? Billions at least.
Or rather, billions.
It would be hard to have any more.
Yeah ok, I'm posting all of this again.
@Trip If so, you can marry him instead.

'sides, how would you get rid of gender? Make it illegal?
"This just in, the UN has just made it so that if you use gendered pronouns, you'll get seventy billion years in prison and a six dollar fine. Plus you'll have to write a letter of apology to the person you labelled, even if you did it accurately."

Trip and Erebus= Trerebus
@Fool: You are now my new favorite person, congratulations
(That would depend on the affected area, Trip. I was at least hoping for somewhere which would not be affected, and the insanity confined to a small area.)
There we go. There is the Blip creation.
*Bows*
I have made the best ship in all of blogland.
I think it would be totally great if we got rid of the gender binary and gendered pronouns. I wamt to try and do that (unless people ask me to refer to them as a pronoun) in my language, actually.
@Tia: Some people have more of a sense of gender than others. I, personally, have a sense of gender identity, and I'm female.
I think we shouldn't give pronouns by sex, either. Because it's atupid, and also because sex is far from exact and you can't actually get close yo knowing it without brain scanning people, and even then it can be subjective.
The innuendo is back *smiles*
"I have the god of darkness INSIDE me, don't you tell me what I can and can' do with it"
Rude minds ftw! XD )
@Stararar: But if someone HAD a gendered pronoun which they preferred, you'd use it, yeah?
I think the gender binaty is as necessary to our system as the faction system is to the Divergent world - it's a rather oppressive system we could live without. Yay for ibdividual unstrcutured sludge.
The Fool drops into a surprisingly graceful bow.
I get that a lot, risk of the trade. Can't count the time I've nearly been ripped apart by vicious groupies.
The Fool pauses for a beat.
Or were those Honduran rebels? Can never remember.
Eh, who cares!
I meant that sex would be dependant on what reproductive organs you have, basically the medical side of stuff.
Whereas gender is what you identify as. But that's the problem. Why should you identify? When was the last time you cared about someone's gender? Did you ever go "Ah, so he's cis" or "Oh, I thought he was cis, but okay, it's cool."
And did you care? What does it matter to you what someone identifies as?
Really, it shouldn't be a gender title or label, but more a collection of qualities that the person has, and because they're unique, other people (who may have had the same title) may have wildly different qualities. Which is okay.
@Kes: Of course. :) Or I'd try to remember to. That's just be mean, otherwise.
This would be a BIG language chamge so, so it would take some implementing.
It doesn't matter to me what other people identify as, but it matters to me what I identify as. And the same is true for the majority of other people.
Well, I'VE always been of the opinion that people aren't especially unique. I mean, there's been how many billions up to this point? Gotta be at least a couple duds in there, if we're basing it off of Heisman's Pokemon Card Theory which I completely did NOT make up justnowhowdareyouaccusemeofthat!
@Kas: :) Yes.
And, a lack of cis-ness does matter to some (generally narrowminded) people.
I have to go, bye!
AM I JUST BEING NON-BINARY AND DIFFICULT???
Because I swear I'm the problem here. Well, not problem. I guess either you can't see it or you love your titles.
Hey Star, Silvenia. Have we met, Silvenia?
*chuckles* Ah yes. Good old Blip creation.
But I mean, did he get angry when you brought it back?
Bye, Kes!
Also, I know you barely pay attention to gender, but for a lot of people it does make a major difference and they really do think of people differently based on their gender - to the pount where males and females seem to be practically different species.
The gendering of objects, too. Not wamting to look the gender you aren't. That matters to some people.
I don't think gender SHOULD make suxh a big difference, I'm just pointing out that people DO care.
(Star, if you started doing that, I would like to be known as a her, rather than anything else.
Tia, I really do not care what anyone else identifies as. That is not why I believe gender is a good thing.
However, Tia, you would have to title the qualities also. So you would really not gain anything.)
Bye Kes.
You aren't a problem Kas, you're causing us to talk to each other about how we think differently. And it isn't a title, it's a way of defining who I am to me. i.e, me.
Yeah Sil xD
Well Trip I know you
And you probably know me
But for now
I'm hiding my identity
And i would like for it to remain hidden
Purely because I want to be someone different :)
No, you're not.
I think we should get rid of tye gender binary, I'm just saying that gender does matter. Which is, in fact, WHY we should get rid of the binary. Not that I know how one would go about doing that.
Thank you Gem
I now count 4(?) people with rude minds :P
Awesome sauce! )
. . .
I can tell who you are from your typing style. XD
Yes Trip.
Thank you, Sophia. :)
And, we alteady have titles for the qualities. They would just be accurate individual quqlities instead of inaccurate group ones.
Um...No Trip, he said those were the days when it was happier.
But he was referring back to when I loved him.
I can dig it, Smurf.
I don't like gender binary, I agree on that though.
But I like gender. It's just a thing I partake in that's very important to me.
Congratulations Star *hugs*
You win!
I think everyone's worked it out by now...
But still its a secret!
Well, gender did give us the fancy word of engender, so it can't be all THAT bad.
Yeah, me too, Star, but shhh.
[Insert comment about hatred of breakups here]
(This fanfic is sooooooooooooo long. Just kill the guy already so I can SLEEP!)
Onwa: I shall insult her if I wish to do so.
@Trip: That's why we should get rid of the binary - so everyone can explore their own gender for themself.
I don't think you could get rid of gender itself. I wouldn't be me without my gender, for example.
Hello.
Yeah...sorry Trip.
I am tiree and ginna ve so tired tomorrow but I can't abandon Kaladin help.
I meant that every person is unique. Gender identity of one cissexual does not equal the gender identity of every cissexual.
Are not all cissexuals unique? Is not everybody unique? Just look at the diversity!
So really, cis is a quality, not a defining characteristic. The defining characteristic is gender and it shouldn't be. It should, at best, be another characteristic.
I'm okay with a person being cis, male, and heterosexual, all qualities (not the right word, I think.)
You may as well be an AH-1Z Viper attack helicopter if that's what you identify as. But that's not going to change how I treat you because I know you're unique, and I will not compare you to other people who share the label you have or chose for yourself because you are one of a kind, a one of a kind person who deserves to be recognised as such.
As in, roleplay-Kaladin.
Hey Amy!
*hugs tightly*
I really want to reply to Tia but I have school! Stuff! To do!
Hello Demon, Star, Kas!
How are you all?

Hello Kestrel! How are you?
*I'm okay...<<< kinda lost the point there. Why WOULDN'T I be okay with someone being cis, male, and heterosexual?

I kind of forget who I call Stalky, in my old age.
It's quite all right, Chi.
Hey Amethyst! I'm good but trying not to be here! If I comment again someone yell at me!
Good bye, Demon!
Hello Trip! How are you?
Um, I'm quite tied actually. I think I'll go to bed.

Hello Protector. How are you?
Sleepy Zaffy....-Zaf
Would someone read my editorial and (brutally honest) tell me what they think? Nothing will offend me, even if you say it's the worst thing you've ever read. I just really want to know.
Hi, Duggy.
I'd say yes, but I'm way too exhausted to make sense.
-Zaf
Hello Zafira and Loki!
Hello Dugglyn! How are you guys!
I'll can read your editorial, Dugglyn.
Hey Zaf, that's okay.
Thanks Amy!! I'll email it to you! (I have your email, along with almost every other Bloglandian's email, saved!)
Okay!
Oh, Loki's sulking.
It's tech week and he experienced the art of a giant dragon costume.
Oh and also my friend and I werehaving a Thor/Loki banter and the guy I really like sat by me and told me if he wadn't grounded he'd go to the cast party and dance with me....

Sigh,.,,

Sorry...
... And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive
And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am...
I am tired.
(YUSSSSSSS HESSSSS DEEEEEEEEAD!!! BURN IN HELL MARSHMALLOW MELTER!!!)
(Hello.)
Bethany: No...
Liliana: Onwa, please stop.
*a large energy signature can be detected in front of them*
(Hey Soph! *cuddles*)
Onwa: *grunts*
She has a point..
Onwa: Also, since you're too busy criticizing me, directly in front of us.
(*cuddles Jaimie back* Hello, Jaimie. *she kisses her forehead*)
Bethany: *she touches Onwa's arm, white lines moving to every living thing around them* Can you see it?
*there is a line pointing to a large spider on the floor in front of them*
(*smiles, cuddling close*)
Onwa: *jumps slightly at the unexpected contact*
*looks down at the large spider*
Yes.
(*cuddles her close back*)
Claire: Ew, stamp on it.
Onwa: *looks at Claire*
You really think it'll allow itself to be stamped on? Crush it with your telekinesis.
Claire: *she flicks her hand, the spider rising into the air* *she moves her fingers apart, and the legs come off the spider*
Onwa: *tilts head*
Hm... why is it allowing itself to be destroyed so easily I wonder.
*the spider suddenly grows to over a hundred times its previous size, the legs returning*
Claire: *she looks up* Stamp on it, Onwa. *she grins* It's kind of cute... I mean, it's cute in an ugly, hairy kind of way, but some are saying that about you, Onwa, these days.
Bethany: *she taps Claire on the shoulder* No.
Onwa: *glares at Claire*
*she, herself starts growing also*
I'll stamp on you if you don't shut your trap.
Hadeon: *it moves to stamp on Onwa and Claire simultaneously*
Claire: *she holds both legs back with her telekinesis* Silente... Can I have a portal to my weapons?
*opens a portal for Claire*
Onwa: *continues growing, watching Hadeon*
Hadeon: *it lunges at Onwa, biting at her with its fangs*
Claire: *she walks through the portal, before coming back with two weapons* *one is a large rocket launcher, and the second a grenade launcher* *she raises the rocket launcher to her shoulder, aiming at the spider before firing* *the missile impacts into the top of the spider's leg before detonating, ripping it off* Yeah motherfucker.
Onwa: *jumps back, growling*
*sends energy into his mouth*
Hadeon: *it hisses in pain from the lost leg, stumbling a little before spitting a large amount of poison at Onwa*
Liliana: *she knocks the poison aside with black energy*
Claire: *she drops the rocket launcher, picking up the grenade launcher instead* *she starts to fire the grenade launcher at the legs of the spider*
Ember: *she sends streams of fire at the spider*
Onwa: *grows until she's bigger than the spider, making sure to have curves still, smirking*
Good.
*smashes a fist down on its body*
Hi.
(Apologies, the internet connection failed.)
Hadeon: *it hisses, jumping at Onwa, knocking her to the floor*
Onwa: *rolls with him, holding him tightly so he cant escape, raising her body heat to almost incinerating levels, her clothes instantly becoming ash, her skin blistering slightly*
She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything
Was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I stared too long
I'd probably break down and cry
Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine
She's got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I'd hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder and the rain
To quietly pass me by
[3x]
Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine
[4x]
Where do we go?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go?
Sweet child o' mine
Hi, Soph and Jai.

Haha, I know. Just playing with you, Pat.
(I once had a YouTube comment on Adele - Skyfall piano version that was just "James Bond?" and it had 160+ likes and was the top comment and I got so many replies like "No, this is Patrick!" and "No, this is Sparta!" and dozens more, but I can't share them because the video was deleted :c)

Wbd, on YouTube )
Hey, Silvenia.
That's good, Keiron.
(Hello.)
Hadeon: *it screeches, changing its form into a large serpent, biting at Onwa's neck*
Hey, Soph.
Why am I VOLUNTARILY writing a GCSE English essay when I hate them . . . ?
(Hi.)
Onwa: *grabs its neck in a large hand, squeezing to crush the bones*
Where the HELL is this guys counterpart?!
*ties the serpent into a Knott*
Also, I have to go online to get the text coz I 'an't got the book withme (see, I'm even INCONVENIENTLY writing this voluntary essay wtf) so I might spam you with OMAM quotes because AWHHHHHHHHHHHH LENNIEEEEEEE.
From the darkness Lennie called,
“George—you asleep?”
“No. Whatta you want?”
“Let’s have different color rabbits, George.”
“Sure we will,” George said sleepily. “Red and blue and green rabbits,
Lennie. Millions of ‘em.”
:P
OH MY GOSH I'M GOING TO CRY
I LOVE OMAM
George’s voice became deeper. He
repeated his words rhythmically as
though he had said them many times before. “Guys like us, that work on
ranches, are the loneliest guys in the world. They got no fambly. They don’t
belong no place. They come to a ranch an
’ work up a stake and then they go into
town and blow their stak
e, and the first thing you know they’re poundin’ their
tail on some other ranch. They ai
n’t got nothing to look ahead to.”
Lennie was delighted. “That’s it—that’s
it. Now tell how it is with us.”
George went on. “With us it ain’
t like that. We got a future. We got
somebody to talk to that gives a damn a
bout us. We don’t have to sit-in no bar
room blowin’ in our jack jus’ because we got no place else to go. If them other
guys gets in jail they can rot for
all anybody gives a damn. But not us."

*CRIES*
Fuck
a tear just landed on my English book and it made my writing all blur up.
Oops.
I'm gonna rewrite that for you without the random new lines.

Hello?
(@Star ...)
Yeah, well, I know I already have two undedicated pages, but I wanted to carry on spamming you all with OMAM quotes, and so I thought I'd comment and dedicate this page to Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck coz it's cool. :) And a lot better than Heroes by Robert Cormier, and a damn lot better than Romeo and Juliet imo, although Inspector Calls by . . . J. B. Priestley gives it a run for it's money, I believe. :P
@Jai: :P Yes. Hi.
But seriously. RED AND GREEN AND BLUE ONES, LENNIE.
(Hello Tia. Hello, Star.
Hello, Jaimie. *cuddles her tightly, kissing her forehead*)
Liliana: Probably trying to find it?
Hadeon: *it hisses, transforming into a hydra, breathing eighteen streams of fire at Onwa, wriggling from her grip*
Phaestra: *she appears in a flash of light on the Hydra's back, drawing her sword, slamming it down into its spine* *her hands glow white, a harsh light shining beneath the hydra's skin before it simply dissolves away into scraps*
Now I've got distracted reading the thing. -_-
This is the problem when I haev to scroll through the whole damn text to find what I want. I end up reading what I scroll past.
(*cuddles her tightly back*)
Onwa: *glares, healing herself*
Hello.
*slowly allows the shadows to cover her body again, well aware of her attractiveness*
Oh
I worked out how to skip through a page at a time instead of scrolling.
See
we've got the question "Do dreams do the characters in 'Of Mice and Men' more harm that good?"
and I want to argue that it's better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all
but I don't think I can do that with the quotes available, so I mgiht just finish this essay and then give it a stab.
Idk - however much time I waste on this, it's all revision, so there is no wasted time. O_O That feels weird.
Liliana: Are you planning on becoming your normal size again, my love?
Phaestra: Apologies for the intrusion, but Phraelia's physical form was deteriorating. When we first trapped Hadeon, we invested a lot of energy in keeping him trapped in the body, even when it died. We put no energy into Phraelia, and her physical form could not sustain itself. She is in my realm, and I am attempting to keep her alive. Thanks to Minerve putting enough energy into Hadeon to sustain his body, but not enough to trap him after death, he has reverted back to a static force. That means he will pose a threat in the future, but not while he recovers.
Onwa: *starts shrinking*
That is something at least.
Typical school, though. Sir came over today and told us that to get the top marks we have to be original and perceptive.
Yeah. Yeah, I was all being original and perceptive in year nine, but then you came along and trained me to write essyas like everyone else, which I couldn't do, and now you're telling me that what I did originally was correct but now I can't remember how I did it.
And I've been saying this for the past two years, because this happened EVERYWHERE. I was doing /fine/ in year nine and then you screwed me up in pretty much every aspect of English and now you tell me that screwing me up made me /worse/.
Thanks a bunch. -_-
They're also telling us that we should be really controversial because it'll get us better marks (they say that to us all the time in English), but I morally disagree with being controversial just to be liked and I also have issues with arguing for things I don't believe in, so I think I'm just going to carry on doing what I do and letting my natural originality and perceptiveness shine out. I'm not letting myself be screwed up again, hopefully.
At least now I can be original and perceptive without feeling like I'm doing it wrong because they told us to just do it like everyone esle at the beginnign of year ten shidoansdioamsakm.
Sorry. My English rant must be getting a bit old now, but it's my Subject To Complain About this year (I have one eveyr year hehe).
"We’d have a setter dog and a
couple stripe cats, but you gotta watch out them cats don’t get the
little rabbits.”
Lennie breathed hard. “You jus’ let ‘em try to get the rabbits. I’ll break their God damn necks. I’ll . . . . I’ll smash ‘em with a stick.” He subsided, grumbling
to himself, threatening the future cats which might dare to
disturb the future rabbits.
Phaestra: Indeed. I was discussing events with Phraelia, and she may help me to be able to suppress Hadeon myself.
Bethany: You will be more powerful?
(I am not an expert on the book, but perhaps you could mention that it is unlikely that George would have killed Lennie if he had not died happily - and their future dreams was what he used to make him happy? If he was unhappy, he may as well have left him to the others.)
But.. wouldn't that tip the balance between life and death?
Onwa: I'm not sure you being stronger is good.
