Sorry for the delay — was caught up in my Demon Road rewrite and lost track of time!
But now the moment you've been waiting for, with thanks, as ever, to Mr Tom Percival, artist extraordinaire...

«Oldest ‹Older 1801 – 2000 of 4925 Newer› Newest»(Hello, Jaimie. *cuddles her tightly*)
Bethany: If you changed, I'd do as I did before... And then kiss your cute bald head. *she kisses her forehead* Nothing bad would happen... I'm here.
Liliana: I see. *she smiles* Mmm...
(*cuddles tightly back*)
*shakes head*
No.. I-it was that I couldn't change and.. t-they..
*swallows, shaking more*
Onwa: *tips the glass for her again*
Bethany: ... Who and what?
Liliana: *she drinks more, finishing the glass* Arms going numb... Mmm...
It.. it w-was the wedding..
*smiles slightly*
Our wedding... b-but it.. wasn't you behind the veil.. Onw-wa was there.. sh-she said if I didn't change she'd...she'd m-make you int-to her.. be-brainless toy..
*shudders, sniffling slightly*
And th-that she'd roast Claire al-live..I-I couldn't ch-change..
Onwa: Hmm. Perhaps one more drink.
*fills the glass again*
Bethany: *she hugs her tightly* It's okay. I won't become a brainless toy. I just won't. And Claire has telekinesis... Is it even possible to burn her alive? *she thinks for a moment* I won't wear a veil, just in case.
Liliana: Mmm... *she has a drink*
*shifts closer*
She.. she m-made me watch.. she l-literally made.. made you b-brainless..
*looks like she's going to puke*
Onwa: *kisses her forehead, smiling*
Bethany: *she kisses her gently, briefly, but passionately* I won't wear a veil. And Liliana won't let her do anything bad... It was just a dream.
Liliana: *she has another drink, smiling* Legs starting to go numb...
*kisses her back, leaning into her, not shaking as much now*
*nods*
Okay..okay..
*swallows*
*smiles shakily*
Holiday today.
Onwa: *grins*
Mm. So long as the more important parts don't go numb.
Bethany: Yes, it is. *she wraps her legs tightly around her, holding her like a koala*
Liliana: Mmm... *she has another drink, finishing the glass*
*smiles, cuddling against her, rubbing Beth's thigh*
Onwa: How much is numb?
Bethany: *she sighs happily, cuddling her close* I just realised I slept without clothes last night... Weird...
Liliana: All except my head and torso.
*smiles*
Nice for me.
Onwa: *puts the glass down*
Bethany: *she continues to hold her* I love you.
Liliana: Mmm...
*smiles* I love you too Beth.
(Time Skip?)
Bethany: No doubt Claire will want to fight you before we leave. *she presses against her* I can't get used to the fact you like the way I look... No one else does.
(Indeed.)
*smiles*
But I don't like the way you look. I LOVE the way you look.
Onwa: *kisses her passionately, grinning*
Bethany: Thank you... But there's nothing special about me... You, on the other hand... *she stretches her wings out gently*
Liliana: *she kisses her passionately back, using her tongue*
*shakes head*
I'm normal, average. You.. you have wings, and glow, and are so.. so beautiful. You're perfect.. not only are you beautiful, but you're a brilliant person..
Onwa: *uses tongue also*
Bethany: I'm not perfect... I'm clumsy and I get nervous easily... And other things... I'm not beautiful, or perfect, or brilliant... But thank you... I'm glad you think so highly of me... It means a lot. Like... Really a lot... But you're perfect, and you're by far more beautiful.
Liliana: *she starts to kiss Onwa's neck passionately*
*kisses her gently*
No one is more beautiful than you. No one is more perfect than you.
Onwa: *sighs happily. grinning*
(I have to go now, goodbye. *cuddles Jaimie tightly*)
(*cuddles Soph tightly back* See you soon. Have a good day!)
Hi.
(Hello.)
Bethany: *she kisses her back* You are... But I'm not beautiful or perfect... I'm really not... My sisters are more beautiful than I am...
Liliana: I love you.
Hey, Soph. How is your day going?
(Hello, Tia. It has been boring, your own?)
Check out my new blog post
It's okay.
Hello, G.
(Hello, Grimm.)
Sorry about deleted comments. Was talking about spaceships. Go watch Firefly :)
Nope. No one. You're the centre of my universe..
Onwa: I love you too
*hugs Jaimie* Hey...
http://brandonsanderson.com/sandersons-second-law/
:)
I can probably actually be here today. O_O Hi. :)
*hugs Stararar* Hey! :)
Hi, Kas! :) How're you? :)
I Just can't!! It feels like just yesterday I picked up the first Skulduggery book and now the series is drawing to a close. I feel old. Like I should have a walking stick. GTG I'm gonna go dye my grey hair
(*freezes* We got a newbie...)
*Newbie freezes right back*
Nah. Mt guess is a one-commenter. Been a lot of them on this post.
First time commenter, long time post reader. Not sure that makes grammatical sense
(Perhaps...)
Ah, I see. :) :) Well, hi! :)
(Rp anyone?)
Hi, Seirsha and Run! :)
Welcome to Blogland, Run! :)
I'm okay, Star, how are you three?
(Hi, how are you Kas?
*hugs*)
Well thats a warm welcome. I'm good. How are you?
I'm fine. Revising. :P
There's a nerve under my eye that keeps vibrating, though; this is its fourth day doing it and it's really annoying. -_-
Ouch. Maybe it's stress related?I'm completely avoiding all my revision
You should revise. *nods*
And I'm okay. Probably should be doing things, but meh.
(*chuckles* love the name. Most suitable. Excuse me a sec.)
The name relates to all my responsibilities. Mwahahahahaha. Not entirely sure why I'm evil laughing it just felt appropriate
Nah, it'll just be . . . leaning-on-it-related . . . :P
I was doing that until yesterday, but I really don't mind revising for science as my revision guides are so good. My history ones are awful . . .
(Star, try fourth week...
It's caused by stress and tiredness.)
*smiles and hugs everyone*
I've had nerves jangle for a few days before. Leg, chest, thumb. I'm pretty sure my eye nerve is jangling for the same inexplainable causes.
(*hugs Kas*)
Fourth week does NOT sound fun, though . . .
See, this is why I am a nerd and like going to sleep at a reasonable time.
(Mmm. Better. Well, hello Run. It's time for your greeting.)
(No, it's not...
Jai, can I help?)
(Hello.)
Bethany: And you are the centre of mine. Are you sure you're alright?
Liliana: It is rather hard to move...
(@Saoirse such. If she's still here..)
*smiles, kissing her gently*
I'm okay. Just.. shaken.
Onwa: *grins*
Good.
(Hello, Jaimie. *cuddles her tightly*)
Bethany: *she kisses her back, cuddling her tighter*
Liliana: It is?
(I will be back soon.)
(*cuddles her tightly back*)
*smiles, leaning against her*
Onwa: *kisses her passionately*
Definitely.
(I am back.)
Bethany: Maybe the holiday will be good for you.
Liliana: *she kisses her passionately, but weakly, back*
(*cuddles*)
The holiday will be good for all of us.
Onwa: *smirks, nipping her lip, pulling on it*
(*cuddles her back* Hello again, Jaimie.)
Bethany: Yes... *she smiles* Maybe we should see Claire, now?
Liliana: *she grins, sighing happily*
Yes, we should. Although let's get dressed, her tiny mind couldn't handle so much beauty.
*grins*
Onwa: Mm. More wine?
Wow OMG awestruck it's BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The silver god has done it again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Tom percival is the silver god)
(*blinks*
Viv..Viv..)
Bethany: I wouldn't want to be undressed in front of her, anyway... *she smiles, putting on her underwear*
Liliana: Indeed.
(I will be back soon.)
*pulls her own underwear on*
Mmm. Neither would I..
Onwa: *drags the barrel over, positioning the tap over her*
Open your mouth.
(Okay..)
Hey...
*hugs Jaimie and and leaves a hug for everyone who's distant*
(*hugs kas back*)
(I am back.)
Bethany: *she puts the silk dress on again* I think this will do alright before we start to pack?
Liliana: *she opens her mouth*
(*cuddles Sophi*)
*grins*
Definitely.
Onwa: *turns the tap on, silver wine flowing straight into her mouth*
(*cuddles Jaimie back*)
Bethany: Right. We should go and see Claire. She'll probably want to fight you...
Liliana: *she swallows every few seconds*
(If you wqtch my eye whilst the berve'a vibrating you can see my bottom eyelid move from side to side with the motion of it.
It's really weird. :P)
(@Star huh?)
Probably.
*puts her sheathes back on, all of them*
*pulls a tight fitting black shirt on with black leggings, somehow hiding the knives while hugging her figure*
Mmm.
*smiles*
Onwa: *keeps the tap on, waiting a little*
@Jai: A nerve in my lower eyelid keeps vibrating. Like nerves do from time to time. :) And when it does it moves my entire eyelid. It moves, like, /actual millimetres/. O_O
(That's weird..)
(That is rather odd, indeed.)
Bethany: *she smiles, walking out of their bedroom, waiting for her*
Liliana: *she continues to drink*
*follows her, smiling, taking her hand*
*knocks at Claire's room*
Onwa: *turns the tap off, smiling*
(Ikr.)
(Hi again.)
(Hi Saoirse again!)
(How are you again?)
Claire: What?
Liliana: And now I can barely move anywhere...
(Hello, Saoirse.)
Can we come in or..?
Onwa: *chuckles*
Hmm.. where's numb?
*hugs Seirsha and gives her cake*
Claire: Uh... Sure?
Liliana: All but my torso. But I cannot move anything other than my face.
*walks in, still holding Beth's hand*
*smiles*
Holiday today.
Onwa: *grins*
Mmm.
Claire: Yep... But could we fight, first? *she sits up in bed - wearing her ninja onesie*
Liliana: So now, you can do whatever you want.
*laughs*
Fitting..
Onwa: Mmm.*grins* good.
Claire: What is? Oh, right, the onesie? I was thinking we could maybe use wooden staffs today also to train with?
(Time skip, Jaimie?)
Wooden staffs are good.
*nods*
(Yes.)
Bethany: As long as you don't knock each other out...
Claire: I'll try not to? Right. I'll just get dressed, then if you can make a portal to where my weaponry is, I'll get some staffs.
Liliana: *she grins up at her* How was that?
Dont worry, I promise I won't knock her out.
Onwa: Mm. *smiles* fun..how drunk would you say you are?
Midgardians.
(Loki. Zafira.)
I care not for Zafira, but nonethless.
Hello, Silente. I would have usually been active, but the musical was this past weekend, hence my time away.
(*shrugs* I find it polite to address authors and characters..
I hope Zafira enjoyed the music.)
(Hello, Loki.)
Bethany: Good...
Claire: Right. So if you two leave, I can get dressed.
Liliana: Mmm... Quite?
She did, she was in it. If you are familiar, she was te Exeucutioner for Lord Farquad from Shrek.
(I remember. Cool :)
Right, yeah.
*takes Beth's hand and goes to the kitchen, cooking a breakfast*
Onwa: *smiles*
Hmm.
Sophia.
Yes, I believe she has a picture of her costume, if you would like.
(Well that was bloody sad.
*bursts into tears again*)
(Yeah! I wanna see!)
(Saoirse?!
*hugs tightly*)
Bethany: *she follows her to the kitchen* What do you want for breakfast?
Liliana: Hmm?
Toast?
*is frowning at the kitchen stuff, trying to work it out*
Onwa: I'm wondering if your behaviour will change.
(*hugs Jai tightly back*
Book... The feels... *cries* It was almost as sad as LSODM and if you've read it you may agree that it is heartbreaking! D:)
She sent an email.
(ahh okay. What book is it hun?
*nods at Loki*
Thank you)
(Opal Plumstead.)
Bethany: You look like you don't know what to do?
Liliana: I'm a fantastic drunk.
(Opal Plumstead? What's it about?)
*smiles awkwardly*
I'm.. more used to the basics?
Onwa: Fantastic?
(I will be back soon.)
(Okay..)
(Basically, a girl who's father is arrested, it's set just before WWI and it was really good but obviously not as good as the SP series. *giggles*)
(Okay? *huggles* I'm reading Dorothy Must Die.)
(That sounds lovely...)
(I am back.)
Bethany: I thought this would be basic? None of it is electric...
Liliana: I'm not much different.
Sigh. I met the insane person named Zanida. She cornered me.
Hey, Loki and Zaffy. How are you both?
We are fine.
Okay! :)
Might suicide myself
I bear a hell within me
Amid the terrible hunger
And the screams of agony
Where can I find rest but in death?
When can I be at peace, but do die?
Engaged in an eternal tomb..
The plastic vice looks ever sweeter,
And my fingers grasp it-
And pull it over my head...
To live, to die, to fall asleep.
*hugs Adra*
I love you, Noelle.
Now he comments...
-Zaf
I don't see many reasons for me to be here often anymore.
Not that it matters.
I mean.
Not that anyone would believe me
Nor do I expect them to.
Why would they?
Because I'm writing it, I don't mean it, do I?
I'm just being an attention whore, clearly.
Not that it matters
Because I'm dead anyway.
I'm just a voice
Drifting, sometimes echoing,
But not serious.
Never serious.
It's not like I have the bag beside me now.
Noelle, please...
Noelle, there are so many people who care about you and consider you important.
... Noelle? *hugs*
*hugs Noelle tightly*
We care. Noelle, we care so much. Please, your life is precious. Even when you can't see that, keep living. Just take each day one step at a time. There will be a better future for you, but only if you keep going.
*hugs her again*
I'm sorry that you're in such a dark place now, but if you can overcome it, you'll live in a brighter place. Keep fighting, Noelle. Please.
*hugs Noelle*
I do believe you, and it scares me. I care about you so much...
(*mumbles something quietly*)
*hugs the ghost*
Miss you Danni
*hugs*
Why do people wish for hope? Why do some wish for happiness, but can never quite reach it? (Be warned, I might repeat myself... Yeah, this is a speech thingy.)
For those who are depressed, for those who are trapped in despair and feel like there's no way out but death, let me tell you something.
If you're still alive right now, there must be some tiny voice in your head, telling you to keep living. Is that true? If you feel /anything/ like that, that's hope. That tiny voice, so small compared to the huge dark cloud hanging above you, weighing you down, is telling you to keep going. Why? When you feel like giving in to the darkness, when you're at the end of your rope, why is that voice persisting to keep you alive?
It knows that you can survive it. It knows your struggles, it knows you're weak, but hope doesn't give up. That hope is where your strength comes from.
Anyone know the story of Pandora's Box? Greek mythology? When she opened the box, so many bad things came out. Diseases, greed, hunger, and so many other negative feelings and illnesses. I often wondered why hope was left in the box. Why was it all the way at the bottom? It wasn't until reading Percy Jackson that I had a better idea of what the meaning was behind it.
Unlike all the negative things that came out and caused suffering to mortals, hope was kept in the box because we still need it. Illnesses, suffering, hunger, pain; those things are temporary. Yes, it might cause death, but that's where hope comes in. That tiny, flickering light inside all of us is helping us make it though the days when we can't see what the future will bring. It doesn't give up on us, but we have to help it by moving forward. If we stay stuck in shadows, it gets harder to see hope's light.
Getting back on the subject of Pandora's Box, I had a thought about what it meant for hope to be at the bottom. It was stuck under all those negative energies, how could it have survived?
I wondered, what if Pandora's Box was like our bodies? We have all this dark energy inside us, but when we can come to open up, it releases the darkness until only hope is left. And with all that empty space, hope can have room to grow.
This probably won't mean much to those who are really trapped in despair, so let me veer from the topic of hope and mythology to say this. (Although, El's version was better ;P)
Everyone, no matter how badly we mess up or how much we feel worthless, has value. All life is important. But we need to learn this ourselves. Sure, it can be said, but to really understand what it means, we have to feel it in ourselves how precious life is. Including our own.
Yes, we go through struggles, some more than others, but these struggles are what life is about. And the more we can face these problems in our lives, the stronger we become. Where do you think that saying came from? What doesn't kill you, DOES make you stronger.
I'm also going through some tough stuff right now. There were times I even gave up on myself. But I knew I had to keep going. I may not be living, but at least I'm still getting by, right? For people who are depressed, the least you can do is SURVIVE. You don't have to pretend like you're living until you're able to feel like you can again. And trust me, if you can get through these dark days, you'll be able to feel alive again. But that's only if you can survive what you're going through. Hope knows you can, that's why you're still alive right now. Listen to that tiny voice. Keep that small flame burning. It may be small, but it's all you need. You just have to do the rest.
(*hugs Noelle tightly* if you die.. How can you prove those bitches and bastards who think so lowly of you wrong?)
*points at the grill*
How?
Onwa: I see.
(Hello.)
Bethany: *she turns a dial, her finger glowing white* *a small fire starts in the top of the oven, heating up the grill*
Liliana: I love you. I really do.
(*snuggle*)
Oh.
*laughs*
I look really stupid now..
Onwa: *grins*
And I love you too.
(*snuggles, also, cuddling her tightly* Hello, Jaimie.)
Bethany: No, you don't. How are you supposed to know? It's got some wood in the top.
Liliana: And I will forever.
(*cuddles tightly back* hey awesome.)
*nods*
Okay..
*grabs three slices of bread, sliding them into the grill*
Onwa: *smiles, kissing her gently*
Good. Because you're stuck with me forever.
(I am really not awesome.)
Claire: *she walks out, wearing her mask, costume and cape* Ready.
Liliana: *she kisses her back* Mmm... Onwa, please promise me you won't ruin Bethany's and Silente's wedding?
(You really are.)
*rolls eyes, smiling*
Food first.
*retrieves the bread, one slice each*
*puts them on three separate plates*
Onwa: I've already said I won't..
(I am not, Jaimie.)
Claire: Okay. *she smiles, sitting down at the table* Could I have some butter on mine?
Liliana: But promise.
(You are..)
Sure.
*gets a knife, buttering her own and Claire's*
Onwa: I promise.
(I am not.)
Bethany: I'll just have mine as it is.
Liliana: Thank you.
(You are.)
Okay.
*brings the plates to the table, sliding claires across to her*
Onwa: Youre welcome..
(*smiles and cuddles El*)
(I really am not awesome or amazing. I am just me.)
Claire: *she takes it, starting to eat*
Bethany: *she sits down* Wait... Yeast...?
Liliana: It is important.
(And you are amazing and awesome.)
Gluten free bread
*smiles*
I thought ahead.
Onwa: *lays beside her, cuddled into her side*
I know. You care more for your sister than you could any other.
*lays her head on Liliana's stomach, eyes closed, hands folded on her own stomach*
(Pure Brilliance (IDEK))
(I am not.)
Bethany: Gluten and yeast free?
Liliana: No, I care about you more. But I want Bethany to be happy.
(You are!)
Yes.
Onwa: *smirks quietly*
You sure?
(Jaimie, I really am not.)
Bethany: Thank you. *she smiles, starting to eat* Sorry for being so complicated.
Liliana: I am. But I would still have to leave you if you ruined Bethany's and Silente's wedding...
(Well you are to me.)
It's fine.
*starts eating*
Onwa: Mm.
(I... *she sighs* Cannot dispute that, even if I definitely disagree.)
Claire: Would you like two shorter staffs or one longer one?
Liliana: I would not want to be with someone who ruined my sister's happiness after I killed her sisters... Then she was raped by the demon... And I just want her to be happy.
(I have to go now. Goodbye.)
Hello.
I have three unused dedications.
I dedicate those three pages to Elleni, Lavender and Noelle.
Stay strong. You're amazing.
Hello to anyone who's here~
I just came home from school because I couldn't stop crying, which isn't the best beginning to your day, aha. But I hope everyone else is doing well <3
Hey, Mara! *hugs her*
What's wrong?
(You can disagree all you want, it won't change the facts.)
Two short ones..
Onwa: ..
Why did you kill her sisters?
*is hesitating to comment again*
*uses this to announce her presence*
*tilts her head, wondering if there's a better way than this to say hi when she can't*
*comments this anyway*
*slowed version of Do You Wanna Build a Snowman starts playing, leading to the beginning of a different song that uses the tune as an intro*
Sadness swirls within me like the snow,
I've frozen out the only friend I'll ever know.
There's no way I can win,
But I wish that I had been there for her long ago...
Life's too short
To be such an oblivious fool
So reckless, that I couldn't see
Life's too short to be so desperate to be loved
That I only ever thought of me...
I wish I saw things clearly
I guess I'm just not the sort...
Now all I know
Is life's, too, short...
*is having some serious mood swings right now*
A while ago, I was okay, but now I'm feeling really down...
And no one's on...
*starts to fade*
*doesn't want to, but will if no one comments for a while, though it won't be anyone's fault that they weren't on*
*is suddenly feeling very restless again, the sad feeling turning into some sort of nervous energy*
*decides to pace*
*looks at her first handwritten note since ages ago when she last wrote her stories by hand*
*blinks*
I think my writing got worse... I need to hand write more often.
So apparently, while pacing in Blogland, I actually wrote something. It helped just as well, to be honest.
Handwriting gives that feeling of moving. More so than typing on a screen or keyboard.
Not to mention, it felt really good to get my thoughts out on paper like that.
Maybe I should start a diary, though I never can keep it up for long. Entries are far and few between.
*knows she's talking to no one*
*has kinda stopped caring*
*frowns, also slightly worried at the thought*
...
Good night, Blogland.
*leaves hugs and heads to sleep*
(@Lavender I'm hoping you read back..
Maybe start a journal? You only write in a journal when you want to I think. It's important notes or feelings..)
(Hello.)
Claire: I think I will use a longer one.
Liliana: Minerve told me to... I thought that they were a scourge on existence who needed to be destroyed. Now I realise it was me who was the scourge, and they who were right.
*raises an eyebrow*
Hmm..
Onwa: *opens her eyes*
*turns over, looming slightly over her, still laid down*
*tilts head*
(Hello, Jaimie. *cuddles her tightly*)
Claire: What?
Liliana: Hm?
(*cuddles tightly back*)
Why a big one? Surely two small ones has the advantage?
Onwa: *just keeps watching her*
Claire: Not necessarily. I will be able to keep you at a distance. And if yours break, they become unusable. If mine breaks, I can have two.
Liliana: Onwa? Are you alright?
Oh God.
My science set are as insane as my art class.
Except my science set are kind of intelligently mean and my art class are disturbingly weird.
But they're both insane.
It's glorious. <3 I have so much fun.
(Hello, Star.)
Also, I'm not on Whatsapp tonight, so I'll probably be a little more present here.
(That is good. Your rants are something to be missed.)
True, but if you lose yours you've lost it. You only have one with which to simultaneously defend and attack.
Onwa: Indeed..
Hi Sophia. :)
(Yey! Star rants!)
Claire: Easy if I hold it in the middle. One end to attack, the other to block. A simple matter of twisting.
Liliana: What are you doing?
:) Thank you, Sophia.
I haven't got much to rant about though. Or maybe I have, but I can't be bothered to type it out. I'll see how I feel after going over my French, my Physics and then whatever else.
:)
*hugs Jai and Sophia*
I'll try and produce material to rant about after revision. O_O *writes it on my hand* But I can't promise it'll be good.
But being flexible.. that's illogical against a faster opponent, why take the risk?
Onwa: Nothing.
(*she hugs Star back*)
Claire: Ssh. Let me. If it doesn't work, I'll get the others.
Liliana: Are you sure?
Why are people expecting me to learn my left and right in French when I don't even know them in English???
(*cuddles star* xD)
*shrugs*
If you're sure?
Onwa: *lays back down*
I am.
