Demon Road

It was with much glee that I watched your reactions to the video yesterday.

As for those who cursed me for drawing it out so long, all I can say is... "heh." It amuses me to torture you, have you not learned this yet?

Over the coming weeks and months you'll be finding out a lot more about Demon Road, but I figured I'd answer a few questions now.

For starters, this is NOT the cover.


This is just a nifty holding image we give out so that people can pre-order if they want to. Hence the following link: http://www.pages01.net/harpercollinspublishersltd/DerekLandy-DemonRoad/

The ACTUAL cover, and the new cover artist, will be revealed in due time.

The release date is, as you can see, the 27th of August. Yesterday we said the 28th, but we figured out a way to get it to you a day earlier, and we took it.

Demon Road is both the name of the first book AND the name of the overall trilogy.

It WILL be a trilogy.

The books will be released 6 months apart. This is the way the publishing industry is going, to be honest — especially for children's books/YA. It's a hectic, bruising schedule, which will mean I'm gonna be overworked for the rest of the year, but hey... I'm quite looking forward to it, actually. I always felt bizarrely guilty for making you wait a year between Skulduggery books, so I'm going to see if this way is better.

Ah yes, and it will be Young Adult as well. There's nothing in it (yet) that is amazingly inappropriate for younger readers — maybe a word or two, slipping into older territory — but it's just the overall feel of the thing.

I'm TRYING to write shorter books. I was aiming for a Dark Days length, roughly 80,000 words. I have to write three of these books this year, and I can't have them spiralling out of control like Skulduggery did. I'm currently at 91,000 words. Hopefully I won't go above 100,000, which is roughly where Mortal Coil was. Hopefully.

Right now, I've only signed a contract with Harper Collins UK, which will publish the books in Ireland, the UK, Australia and New Zealand, and Canada. Over the next while, I'll be signing with foreign language publishers also — but for most of them, I'll need to show them the finished book. Harper UK trust me enough to sign a contract with what they've already seen of the book as I'm writing it.

There is absolutely no reason why we shouldn't be published in America as well.

Oh, and yes, I will be touring with Demon Road, but it's far too early to say where.

Hi S . . . a . . . o . . . ir . . .se! :)
*had to carefully check my spelling :P*

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

For f-

Parents are having a go at me for not having a job.

The Vile part of Skulduggery Pleasant said...

*Hugs tightly* :p subconcious for the win

Star Inkbright said...

((This protector is seemling like a protector like a Peacekeeper is a Peacekeeper.))

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Hey Jubi, Seirsha and Protector.

Savannah said...

(Hey Star! Don't worry if you get it wrong, call me Seirsha, Seir, Velvet, Velv, Vel, Iris or anything else. But not Gladys.)

Savannah said...

(Hey Kas.)

Star Inkbright said...

@Kas: :( But you're trying to get one!

Chione Asahina said...

*Looks scared and attempts to fly away*

Star Inkbright said...

@Saoirse: It's cool. :)

Savannah said...

(Okay Star! :))

Protector said...

He skids to a halt and rockets into the air, cracking the ground with the force of his jump. His arm darts out and takes hold of Arias leg and hurls her towards the earth

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

Liliana: I love you so much. You know that, right?

Bethany: Should I just transport us home?

Chione Asahina said...

*Screams and winces as she hits the ground, hard*
Stop!
*Crawls away backwards as fast as she can*

The Vile part of Skulduggery Pleasant said...

*flys over* I don't know who you think you are, I am the protector of this here blogland and this was not chosen, just because she has been controlled by evil and some stayed does not mean she will be swayed by it. NOW kindly leave her alone or you shan't be protecting much longer.

Protector said...

He lands directly over her and plants his foot firmly on her shoulder. Though his visor is too dark to see into, his gaze never leaves the girl as he reaches to his belt and retrieves the hilt of a sword.

He points the hilt at her, and with a small "shink" a thin, opaque, and colorless blade shoots out, stopping only centimeters from her throat

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

*Tanya approaches Pup, crouches in front of him/her(?) and stretches out her arms toward him/her, smiling*

The Vile part of Skulduggery Pleasant said...

Have it your way then!. *clicks fingers on both hands, generating sparks and cultivating them into large flames* *sends them flying into his sides*

Chione Asahina said...

*Cries out and screws her eyes shut, thinking he was going to kill her*
*Opens one eyes slowly, then both and sees the sword at her throat*
*Doesn't move*
*Stares up at the man, fear in her eyes*
*Sighs with relief as Skulduggery gets here but doesn't take her eyes off of the man with the blade to her throat*

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

Onwa: *nods*
I do. And I love you too.



It.. could be easier..


(Sorry. Was discussing a mother's day present with the siblings. Possible spa.)

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

*picks the pup up, holding him gently*

Protector said...

The flames singe his cloak, but his armor remains unscathed. Keeping the tip of the sword at Arias throat he looks at the skeleton.

Traces of dark magic.

Aggression.

Possible threat.

He turns back to Aria and seems to actually look at her for the first time.

Corruption is from an external force.

Possibly the target.

Deadly force may have been excessive.

The blade retracts back into the hilt, which he straps back on to his belt, and he steps back to allow her to stand.

Chione Asahina said...

*Moves a few inches away slowly then stands up*
*Backs up over to Skulduggery*
*Doesn't take her eyes off of him*

The Vile part of Skulduggery Pleasant said...

*sighs, nodding* Get to the source and we may be able to cure her of it, but for now it's doing no real damage. *stands down, smothering the flames out*

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

*grins at the pup*

*turns and walks towards the noises, pup in hands*

Protector said...

He walks towards them, stopping just out of range of a blade, and raises his upturned hand. In it he holds a small blue crystal, which suddenly projects an image of a shapeless shadow, constantly twisting in ways that defy all physics. Even though it is only a hologram the sheer malevolence and utter hatred for all light permeates the area

He points to it then makes a gesture at the surrounding landscape

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

(*growls*
Brother looked in my harmonica case..
Could've ended badly..)

Savannah said...

(Bye.)

Star Inkbright said...

(Uh . . . it couldn't defy all physics. Just all known physics.
Although even as I say that I'm reminded of Syl - "Natural laws? Laws are of men, Kaladin! Nature doesn't have them!")

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

*follows Pup*

(@Jai why?)

Star Inkbright said...

*Natural laws?

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

(Good night, Seirsha!)

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

(@Kas cuz.)

Chione Asahina said...

(What's in your harmonica case, Jai? :3)

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

(@Gem secrets *nods and winks*
Nah jk.
A harmonica *nods*
Obvs.)

Chione Asahina said...

(Night Seir! *hugs*)

*Stares at him and the crystal*
W-what is that...?

Chione Asahina said...

(Then why would it have not ended well if he saw inside?)

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

Liliana: Good. *she smiles*

Bethany: Then could you... stop?

(I will be back soon.)

The Vile part of Skulduggery Pleasant said...

Such a cute little thing you are.

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

(*shrugs* harmonica ain't t'only thing in there.)

Onwa: *kisses her gently*



Sure.
*parks the car*

Chione Asahina said...

*Looks back at the wolf(?)*
What the...?
*Backs up a bit more so she can watch the wolf and the man*

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

*strokes megapup's fur*

Protector said...

His speech is distorted and strained, it sounds more mechanical than like a living thing

E...re...bus...

The Vile part of Skulduggery Pleasant said...

*Looks at aria* It's the puppy all grown up of course.

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

(@Jai ... razors, then, Jai?

You don't cut, right? Please tell me you don't cut.)

Chione Asahina said...

*Glares at the crystal and hisses*
I helped defeat him. Why is he in there? I thought his power was inside the dagger...the dagger was hidden in Blake's library...so how...?

John said...

That guy is using my character.

...

Whatever.

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

(Hi Blake!)

Chione Asahina said...

(John stay, see how it plays out...you might need to come into this...)

Star Inkbright said...

((And what is she meant to do if she does cut, Kas? Feel liek she either has to lie to you or make you feel bad? That will help her how?))

The Vile part of Skulduggery Pleasant said...

You won't be digging me up pup. I thought we had an understanding you and I. * looks at the protector* You know when you didn't kill her and I didn't kill you, it was a good thing we had going. *cocks head*

Chione Asahina said...

(If she does, we can try and help her stop, Star.)

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

(@Star ...)

Star Inkbright said...

@Aria: I know - I was just pointing out how Kas's comment wasn't all that helpful.

Star Inkbright said...

Once again, this is a decision that makes me feel guilty, but not enough to rescind it considering the decision made.

Chione Asahina said...

(Well kas didn't really want to find out that another one of his friends were cutting. It was more to reassure him. And Jai didn't reply, so I'm a bit worried at the response now too.)

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

(That's okay, Star. I've just felt like I'm losing everything and everyone lately.

Oh look, I'm crying.

Anyways... I'd prefer no lies. Yeah...)

Protector said...

As she says where the dagger is hidden he closes the hologram and moves forward, looking as interested as a suit of armor can.

He stops mid-step and seems to remember something

Standing up straight, he holds out his hand again. Another hologram comes out of the back of his gauntlet, showing a small elderly man who begins to speak


Hologram: Alright, I think it's recording... If you're hearing this then you've come into contact with this Protector and it decided not to kill you, that's very good. If you haven't figured it out already, it's... um... put simply it's a suit of armor infused with a lot of magic mumbo-jumbo and built to be a god killer. Yeah, you heard that right, a god killer set out to take down what is quite possibly the largest threat to this universe and every other one, Erebus the primordial darkness. Try to help it out, will you? He's not very good with people but he gets the job done and can learn.

The hologram fizzles out and the Protector steps back

Star Inkbright said...

((I know. I'm just pointing out.))

Star Inkbright said...

((I know, Kas. And I do care about the way you feel too; it's just that, as far as I'm aware, you're not cutting.
(If you are, terribly sorry; it's just, I've never had any indication that you are.)))

Chione Asahina said...

(You shouldn't say that to someone Star...
What the hell does it matter if he does or not? how does that change anything?
He's upset because everyone around him is doing it.
Don't you see you're making him more upset? just stop it, please...)

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

(Kas you didn't upset me..I just don't like awkward situations.)

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

(...

...

I don't cut.)

The Vile part of Skulduggery Pleasant said...

*lands awkwardly kicking the dog off* Hey your pet here is still attacking us after y'know you not killing us and all, it'd be nice if you were to call him off before I have to hurt this cute thing.

Star Inkbright said...

@Kas: :) I'm glad about that.

@Aria: I /know/ I'm upsetting him. I'm just saying that what /he/ says has the potential to upset otehrs, namely Jai, and that as she's the one who is potentially cutting in this situation, then trying not to upset her is, in theory, more of a priority. Obviously, it would be ideal if nobody were upset, but that's not always possible.

Protector said...

He places a hand on the wolfs shoulder, in an attempt to both calm and warn it

Star Inkbright said...

Ooh.
Protector-person doesn't know how to use apostrophes.
That narrows it down a bit.
. . .
Or they just made a typo.

Yeah, I should probably have figured out their identity already, but meh. :P

Chione Asahina said...

So...you want to destroy the dagger...?
I wish I could help you, but no one can get into the library without knowing where it is...and I-I've been there before but...I-I forget where it is...

*Turns back and sees the big wolf thing ontop of skulduggery*
Skully!
*Runs over to him*

Star Inkbright said...

Lack of full stops, too.
C:

The Vile part of Skulduggery Pleasant said...

(you haven't worked it out yet ?)

Chione Asahina said...

Then if you don't want anyone to be upset, stop. Especially that you know you're upsetting him. He won't even let me call him to cheer him up. You're getting me upset now too, so stop. If Jai is cutting, i'll help her stop it. Sophia and I are probably the closest people to her on here.

Star Inkbright said...

Nope. C:
However, when I read comments I tend to only pay attention to one conversation/plotline at a time, and if I want to take the otehrs in I have to read back. My focus has been on the conversation, so I'd had to keep rereading the Protector's comments, and even on the reread it doesn't sink in far, so I haven't been paying the best attention; or rather, I have, but it's not paid off.

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

(Jai IS right here you know..
No, Jai doesn't cut..
Yes, Jai has tried cutting, yesterday or whenever it was.
No she didn't cut deep.
Yes she still has the razors.
No I cant promise I won't do it again.
Yes I can promise basically the opposite.)

The Vile part of Skulduggery Pleasant said...

It's fine Aria, we were just having a nice conversation about saving blogland was all, he just had not worked out who the threat was yet. * pushes her behind him just incase*

The Vile part of Skulduggery Pleasant said...

(I have but the pup I'm still in two places about)

Protector said...

Nods at Aria and remains standing a few paces away, as if at attention.

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

(...

Jai... *hugs*)

The Vile part of Skulduggery Pleasant said...

(same thing thou I've not read all of their comments as it didn't like me as skully so I couldn't be bothered to give it my time..... whoops lol .. sorry not sorry)

Garret Falcone said...

(*hugs everyone, and i mean everyone*

*drops this off:*
http://theironforged.blogspot.co.uk/2015/03/character-development.html?m=1


*hugs everyone again*
*poofs* )

Star Inkbright said...

Yeah, the more I drag it out the worse it gets, but it's like one of those situations I used to have in RS, when the boy opposite me would say something like, "Holly, did you offer to give Ryan a blowjob?" and I'd say "No," and he'd say, "You DID?" and then he'd yell it across the classroom, and I'd know that if I didn't shut up (meaning he'd get bored and shut up too) it'd get worse, but I had to keep on protesting to show everyone that I didn't agree with this to show everyone he was talking a load of rubbish . . . and it kind of failed because he just asked the people nearby if they'd witnessed this and they, jumping on the oh-let's-get-amusement-value-from-making-Star-uncomfortable bandwagon, said they had . . . ugh.
That got a little off-topic, but my point is, I have to keep on explaining myself once you ask to correct any incorrect assumptions you may have, and my other point is, I am probably an idiot for trying to do this and am just making things worse, so sorry.
Also, "I'll help her stop it" - it may not be as easy as that. I'm not trying to insult your helping abilities, as I'm sure they're far superior to mine, but . . . sometimes, it isn't just a case of finding the off switch . . . ?
Anyway.
*winces*
*drops subject, or attempts to*

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

(*hugs kas back*)

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

(You shouldn't, Jai... just... I'm here for you okay? I'm sorry. I'm sorry for pushing you. If you want to talk, I'll listen. If not, just tell me, okay?)

Chione Asahina said...

*Glances at the protector*
Sorry I can't be of use to you...
*Looks back at the wolf, hiding slightly behind Skully*

(I'm going to go to bed guys, really tired and I need to catch up on sleep. Goodnight!
*hugs everyone*)

The Vile part of Skulduggery Pleasant said...

(Goodnight Gem Gem *Hugs extra tight* you deserve it :P)

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

(Good night, Gem!)

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

(Sorry, I'm ghosting.)

Administrator Kestrel LeStarre-Sparrowhawk The Celestial said...

Guys, I may be wrong, but I think Star was questioning the phrasing of Kas's question, more than the actual question. Like, she was saying that by framing it in the way he did, she thought it sounded kind of like he didn't care what the actual answer was, as long as she told him she didn't.

I think.

Not taking anyone's side here, just thought I could offer an outsiders perspective.

*offers hugs to everyone*

Administrator Kestrel LeStarre-Sparrowhawk The Celestial said...

Oh, never mind. Apparently I'm like an hour late.

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

Hello, Kestrel.

Administrator Kestrel LeStarre-Sparrowhawk The Celestial said...

Oh, look, it's a Norse god.
T'sup, Norse God?
I'm KesTA atm, btw.

Lavender Hope said...

My name is sorry because I tried spelling out hi earlier and it just looked like a bunch of dots... Hence the need for ___

Also I didn't know what else to change it to...
*gibbers randomly*
- - .___- - -___. .___- .___- - .
- . . .___. -___- . - .___- . -
-___- - -___
- . - .___- - -___- . .___.

Then again, typing in code is so hard. I JUST started learning yesterday, so it's taking a really long time and I have to keep looking up the letters and yeah. But there are just those times when I can't say anything but putting it in a way only some can understand helps me comment.

I'm just giving an explanation, I'm not staying...

ifdiolnltbkenboawcik...

Administrator Kestrel LeStarre-Sparrowhawk The Celestial said...

Hi/bye Lav(?)!

Lavender Hope said...

Ahem, one more:

'If the duration of a dot is taken to be one unit then that of a dash is three units. The space between the components of one character is one unit, between characters is three units and between words seven units.'

Which is why ___(has three lines) but each word is on it's own line
Like
So

Yeah, it's Lav.
*goes again*

Amethyst Temerity said...

*hugs everyone*

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

The World is gonna pay. It is gonna burn. And I'll be laugh. Laughing as cities burn to crisps and people turn to ashes. And it's will be awful for everyone

But there ain't no hell for a Firewatcher's Daughter

Dugglyn Carzainia said...

**laughing



Way to ruin the mood Dugglyn. -_-

Star Inkbright said...

@whatKessaof: Mostly, yeah. I just didn't think Kas thought about the effect of those words, so.

Star Inkbright said...

@*whatKessaid

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(I do think that Star had a point, and I fully agree with her.)

Liliana: *she kisses her back, putting her hand on her thigh*

Bethany: *they vanish in a flash of white, reappearing outside their house*

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

Onwa: *arches up against her, pressing them against each other, deepening the kiss and using tongue*


*smiles*
Thanks Beth..

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(The wording of things when you are wanting to help someone is very important. Phrase it wrong - and it can sound like you are whining - or worse.
If you are attempting to help someone and they know their words are upsetting you, why would they tell you anything? And that is not what this place should be. People should be able to talk about their feelings and get help without the risk of upsetting anyone. If people bottle their feelings up for the sake of not wanting to upset people, it will make things worse.)

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(Hello, Jaimie. *cuddles her tightly*)

Liliana: *she matches her in the kiss, pulling her close*

Bethany: You're welcome.

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

(*cuddles her tightly back*)


Onwa: *grins, rolling to once again pin her*
(Time Skip?)


*unclicks her seatbelt then unclicks Beth's*
*lets the hologram over Beth melt away, kissing her passionately, momentarily forgetting about her own holographic cover*

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(Indeed, Jaimie.)

Bethany: *she kisses her passionately back, running her hand a little down Silente's side, pulling the hologram away and turning it into an orb of multicoloured light in her hand instead* *she unleashes the light into white spirals inside the car*

Claire: Eww...

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

Onwa: *pants, smiling*



*sighs happily, deepening the kiss*

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

Liliana: Hmm... Now you're tired. *she is a little out of breath herself*

Bethany: *she slowly matches her depth, cuddling her close to her*

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

Onwa: Mmm.. I could still go another round..




*grins, holding her close by the small of her back, using a little tongue*
*reaches behind her, undoing the child lock for Claire*

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

Liliana: Hmm... Sure. *she kisses her neck passionately*

Bethany: *she uses her tongue also, draping her arms over her shoulders*

Claire: Eww... Thanks. *she exits the car, going inside the house*

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

Onwa: *moans, grinning*
(Time Skip?)



*presses Beth back, into her chair, straddling her*

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(Indeed, again.)

Bethany: *she makes a little surprised noise, holding her gently, continuing to kiss her*

Star Inkbright said...

Thank you, Sophia.

However, all this disagreement is oy upsetting people more, and making them feel like tgey can't talk . . . and tells them that if they do try to say tgeir view, they'll only end up upsetting someone and causing ab argument, so they stay quiet.
Because of that, and the fact that people here CAN'T talk about their feelings without feeling they're upsetting people, this place is a long way away from the ideal you held it to.

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

Onwa: *snuggles against her, panting, smiling broadly, eyes sparkling*




*murmurs 'to be continued'*
*pulls back, grinning*

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(Indeed it is, Star. It is very far away. But it should not be like that. People should be able to talk.)

Liliana: Better?

Bethany: *she nods, smiling a little*

(I have to go now. Goodbye.)

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

Onwa: *nods*
Much..



Shall we go pack?


(*cuddles Soph* bye!)

Do any of you have any advice on...forgiving people? Or at least moving on? Even if they don't deserve it?

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

(My chemistry mock was postponed..


@Kes just.. remember all their good points, their awesomeness..)

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Hey, Kes. Not really.

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Hey, Jai.

Administrator Kestrel LeStarre-Sparrowhawk The Celestial said...

Oh, nice!


But the thing is one of them doesn't really have any good points. And the other is someone who should've known better.

Administrator Kestrel LeStarre-Sparrowhawk The Celestial said...

Hey Drake! Hey Tia(?)! Hey Storm!

Administrator Kestrel LeStarre-Sparrowhawk The Celestial said...

Oh, wait. Drake is Tia. Nvm.

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Hey. Had a dream today. First time in months.
Sorry, Wbd for 20.

Administrator Kestrel LeStarre-Sparrowhawk The Celestial said...

Huh. What kind of dream?

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

It was weird. Unbelievably, no laws of mature were broken.

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

*nature

Administrator Kestrel LeStarre-Sparrowhawk The Celestial said...

Well, THAT's boring

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

My name was Drake and her's was Kink. I swear it's not a love story.

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(Hello.)

Liliana: *she grins* Now, don't you think we should take a look at the book?

Bethany: *she nods* ... How do I get out?

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(I think forgiveness, like help, Kestrel, should only be extended to those who deserve it. And if they do deserve it - forgive, but do not forget.)

Administrator Kestrel LeStarre-Sparrowhawk The Celestial said...

Sophia, I need to forgive them, though. For myself, if no one else.

@Tia: O.O

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(I rather think it depends on what said person has done.)

Administrator Kestrel LeStarre-Sparrowhawk The Celestial said...

I'd rather not...specify, if it's all the same to you.

I barely see one of them anymore, so it's not like it really matters.

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(That is fine. It was a statement designed to make you think about whether you need to forgive them, rather than a request for information.
I believe some things should not be forgiven. But if you think that you need to forgive them for your own reasons... Perhaps consider the forgive but do not forget.)

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Hey, Sophia.

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(Hello, Tia.)

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Hey, Sophia.

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Oh, dear.

How is your day, Sophia?

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(Somewhat boring, your own?)

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Pretty much the same.

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(I may change my picture.)

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

I'm changing mine soon. But I like yours. Why are you considering changing it?

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(Sniper rifles are not exactly my style.)

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(It is not that I am bad with them - I can use them as well as the next person, but sitting out at the side of a battle is not what I do.)

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Good luck finding your preferred weaponry... a shotgun, maybe?

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(Shotguns - I can use, I suppose. Perhaps I should attempt to get an image of the Revenant and make it red... That is my type of gun.)

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(I have to go now. Goodbye.)

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

Onwa: probably.
*smiles*



*opens Bethany's door*

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

The M-98 Widow is my baby through. It really... pierces.

@Figen: Age doesn't matter. If you like the books, then go ahead! People who like them too aren't going to judge. We share the same interests. :)

(*hugs Ellie back*
Hey. I'm gonna stay up tonight so we can rp on the amigo's blog.)

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Hello.

-___- I've read 21 chapters of a fanfic. Today.

Administrator Kestrel LeStarre-Sparrowhawk The Celestial said...

Oooh what fic?

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

From midnight to some ridiculous time in the morning most of those.

It's a Mass Effect story. I was looking for a certain ship. I got a slightly different ship but it's okay because there is a massive overload of interesting characters and I'm actually reading it for the characters now.

Basically, it has the protagonist lose the person he loved (EDIT: SHE DIED), only to travel to a different dimension where a different version of him exists. So yeah, the woman isstill alive in this dimension but it's less about that anymore.

And there are like 10 ships -_- good job, author.

@Kes: Well, most people who do bad things, you can see why they did them; it makes some kind of logic. Therefore, I can forgive them, because what they did made sense.
If they're illogical, they clearly have mental issues and therefore it's not their fault they're as horrible as they are . . .
So yeah. :)

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Hey, Star.

(Normalement dans mes heures libres je lis les livres de fiction parce que ils me calme. Je préfère lire skulduggery pleasant, c'est mon livre préféré. Quand j'étais plus jeune je dormais plus mais j'ai un téléphone de nors jours donc je ne dors pas aussi long qu'avant. J'essayerais l'escrime ou tir de l'arc mais ils moyens d'acheter. Mon frère aime jouer au les ps4 mais je pense que c'est ennuyeux. Je fassais judo mais j'étais blessé chaque leçon, alors j'ai annété de le faire.


Ugh.)

Star Inkbright said...

:(
I feel you.

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

(Mmm..
Physics homework..
Naaaaaaah.)

Star Inkbright said...

Lol. There's a sheet of paper in my planner that's completely filled with writing from trying to memorise German, and when you read it you just see German segments scattered with Stormlight Archive quotes. :P Because I'm totally great at staying on task.

Liliana: *she sits up in bed, taking the book* *she turns to page one* Hmm...

Bethany: Thank you. *she steps out of the car, nearly falling over*

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

Onwa: *reads over her shoulder*
Hmm. How.. mainstream of you.



Careful!
*climbs out of her door, locking it*

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

Liliana: I am hardly going to start on the last page and read backwards.

Bethany: Sorry... Sorry... I'm fine. You're just getting married to a really clumsy angel...

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

Onwa: I mean reading at all. Mainstream.




*grins, coming round to hug her, kissing her gently*
Best angel ever.

Unknown said...

Why isn't Tom Percival the cover artist? I really loved his cover designs for all of the Skulduggery Pleasant books.

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

Liliana: And how else do you want me to get information?

Bethany: *she kisses and hugs her back* No... My sisters are better...

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

Well, I'm officially sick according to medical professionals. I hope you're all doing a little better.

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

Actually, a lot better, I feel pretty awful right now.

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

Onwa: *closes the book gently*
*places her hand on the cover, breathing carefully*
*her hand and the book glow silver as the knowledge is copied and absorbed*
*places a hand on Liliana, the knowledge flowing to her too*


Nope.

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(Trip - What is it that you have?)

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

(*waves to trip*)

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

Liliana: *she frowns a little* I see. *she goes quiet, trying to sort through the information*

Bethany: They are... More beautiful, less clumsy... Generally more capable, really...

(I will be back soon.)

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

(Tonsil issues. Might be tonsillitis, might be an infection, might be tiny bugs with even tinier toothpicks. I've got a huge amount of penecillin for it. Last time it was three bottles on one teaspoon twice a day, now it's six on two six times a day. Just 0.0 The medical proffessionals are really blitzing it this time.)

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

Onwa: *watches her*



*shakes head*
Nope.

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

(Hey Silente.)

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

(Eek!
*hides from his penicillin*)

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

(Yes, fear me. Fear the penecillinbearer! Mwuhahahahaha! The deadliest poison. >:D)

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

(*stays hidden, hissing*)

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

(*slowly approaches Silente, unscrewing the bottle* Doesn't hissing defeat the point of hiding?)

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

(*growls, backing up*)

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

(Relax, it's only holy water. *throws the contents of the bottle over Silente*)

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

(*raises an eyebrow*
Moron.)

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

(Well it stings when thrown all over ME, so it was worth a shot.)

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

(*rolls eyes*)

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(I am back.)

Liliana: We need to... *she frowns a little* The translation isn't very clear. It just says "force it".

Bethany: I'm glad you chose me, in any case... *she cuddles closely against her*

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

(Wb. What? Deiety allergy is a serious disability!)

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

Onwa: *frowns*
Hmm..


*cuddkes her closely baCk*
I'd never want anyone else..

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

Liliana: Well, that was a bit of an anti-climax, I suppose.

Bethany: I'm glad... Really glad...

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

Onwa: We could perhaps borrow a book on that language?



*smiles*
Good..

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(I will be back soon.)

Hi.

Chione Asahina said...

*Comes in and collapses on the ground just before her bed*
*Can't even make it to her bed, is completely done*
I have been at school...since 7:48 this morning...
Just got home at 8... I'm just...uck...

Chione Asahina said...

I have been at school for 10 hours. Like, what the actual fuck. It's like going to school, and then going to night school right after it. It's like Korea.
Kids go to school like us, go home and eat dinner, then go back for more school at night...Every day...
I just...uck...
