Due to unforeseen circumstances, the announcement of the title of my new series will take place on WEDNESDAY instead of tomorrow.
I could go into the whys and the hows and explain it all to you, making perfect sense and being entirely reasonable...
Or I could just grin and enjoy the fact that you are now cursing my name.
I think I'll do the latter.

«Oldest ‹Older 3601 – 3800 of 4741 Newer› Newest»@Jai Hi. That's why you have to watch your back.
@Kas: sure, I guess. Scarlet needs to reply, right?
I may be a little distant though, but I'll rp.
(@Kas I did. I was busy watching Soph's back too though. Not to mention I was busy watching the people above who where shooting at me.)
Hi Jai. Glad you guys had fun.
I've never played before, but getting hit in the eye sounds dangerous.
Hang on, they just said something about the water.
I need to get my aunt who can translate.
(@Tama hi! Its fun! And yeah.. it probably would hurt. Blame Soph's aim. *nods* OHHHH we should go paintballing!)
I sent you an email to help you understand the character, Hopey.
*is still waiting for a reply from Star*
Okay, Kas. I'll check it soon.
*sighs*
Can't use water until 1 AM... Xb
@Kas: Huh. I thought I sent it. Hang on. :P
*points to face*
That's supposed to be a dead face by the way.
*goes to see the email*
*hugs Tami*
Oh, um... Sorry Kas. My headphones are broken so I can't watch videos right now. Some people(who were smart enough to get showers earlierIamanidiot) are sleeping so I don't want to accidentally wake them up...
*really needs new headphones as she also can't listen to her music*
... :/
Wow, there's a full moon tonight, and I just realized it's shining right at my bedroom window... On my pillow to be exact. It's pretty.
*hugs Kas back*
Aww, pretty. *huggles*
So, um... rp?
Yes. Right.
And even though I couldn't watch, I still opened the link. Storm Hawks? I think I've heard of it- maybe watched it a long time ago. It's a show, right?
Sorry, rp comment will come a bit later.
Just read some comments on the video page and I think I'm getting a sense of who Cyclonis is. She sounds cool. :)
I hate English so much.
(Jaimie, given that paintballing hurts, I may not be prepared to allow us to go. Laser Tag is fine, unless we are on opposite teams.)
@Tami yep.
@Soph it's only paintballing.
(*pouts* Awww. But paintball is fun! Or are you scared of a little pain? *grins*)
*raises an eyebrow at the frozen tree, then turns to look at Cyclonis' staff*
Neat power. But is that all it can do?
*distinguishes the flame in her hand and turns to throw a punch at the frozen tree, pushing on the air strong enough that the tree cracks with the force of it*
*before giving Cuclonis a chance to react, she also raises her hands as if lifting up a heavy invisible object*
*the ground below Cyclonis and herself is raised slightly higher than the surrounding earth, formed in a circle*
*and as a last effect, solidifies the moisture in the air and turns it into a small ball of water floating above her hand; tosses it to the ground where it splatters like a water balloon*
I agree with Soph. Paintball sounds like it would really hurt, and is probably more dangerous than later tag.
@Kas: Cool. :)
*laser
(*rolls eyes*
@Tama yeah but the pain would act as an incentive not to get shot? And you can shoot heads..)
You guys met?! :D
(For the second time, Dugglyn.
Jaimie, it is not myself feeling pain that I am worried about.)
Makes it all the more dangerous, and scary too. *nods, indicating that she won't be pursuaded to think differently*
But if /you/ enjoy it, then it's your choice. Just be really careful if you do play it...
Hi Dug. *huggles*
(Hi dug. And yup. Second time :)
@Soph *smiles innocently* But I don't mind the pain? *flutters eyelashes then promptly falls over cause fluttering eyelashes makes me dizzy*)
@Jai: XD
(Jaimie - well I mind you feeling pain.)
(@star :P
@soph *pouts from her position on the floor*)
*hovers over to her*
That is... impressive. Where are you from, Scarlet?
OOH COOL! :D :D :D :D :D :D
Sophia, didyou let Dragona say anything? :P
Hey Tama! *huggles*
Purple Star!
*slumps*
Waiting... One hour...
*straightens suddenly, face set in determination*
I can do this.
*nods*
...
*is tired*
...
(Hey, Dugglyn.)
(Yes, he spent more time than I would have liked talking to her. It was about 50/50.)
Hey Kas!
(Sorry was eating.
*nods*
It was about 50/50
*does puppy dog eyes at Soph*)
*smiles*
Thanks.
*takes a quick glance down at Cyclonis' feet, noticing her hovering, before looking back at her face*
I'm from a country called America- well, more like the United States, but we shorten it to just USA. I live in an area on the west side, a state called California.
But this is more my home now.
*motions around her*
This is a community for magic users like me; we call it Blogland. There are others around, but I wouldn't know where they are or what they're up to. Don't really spend a lot of time with the group.
*shrugs in an indifferent kind of way*
I'm sort of a loner, though I like to think I'm friendly enough.
So what about you? Where did you come from?
USA? That's a strange name for a Terra. I'm from Terra Cyclonia. I lived there most of my life.
...
I'm really bad at role playing, aren't I? I mean... I think I, myself, talk too much and it shows in my characters...
That plus the fact that I take a long time to think about my responses are what make me so slow at replying.
I'm sorry! >.<
Tami, it's okay. It takes me a while too. And I keep my responses way too short :/
Also, Kas, it's actually probably a good thing I don't know much about her world, so I can honestly ask questions without already knowing answers.
Like is Terra their word for country, or is it just as it means in Latin, earth/land?
@Lav: Mmh, that's why it's sometimes easuer to roleplay with someone else's character. Because you have a model to follow. :) However, I would rephrase your 'talking too much' as 'talking a lot,' because I don't see an issue with it.
Well, then I guess we both have to figure it out, huh?
I think I try to be too detailed with the imagery of everything. Like trying to describe as I would reading a story or something.
@Star: yeah, I think that's what I meant. :P
And it probably is, but it would also be hard trying to stay /in/ character with one who's not yours. :P
*smirks slightly*
Cyclonis from Terra Cyclonia? Is that just a coincidence for your name to be so similar with the name of your homeland?
(@Tami basically, a Terra is usually a flat mountain that can support life, with the space between these mountains being inhospitable and full of lava and monsters.
Cyclonia is more a fortress than a mountain)
No offense to her or anything, but with that picture, Cyclonis looks like a boy.
Unless that's what she was going for?
No, it is not a coincidence. I was named after my terra.
(Meh. Androgynous.)
Ah. Cool. Thanks.
ScarletTC is still thinking of Cy's home like Earth's style lands.
@Lav: Oh, I think it's easier with one who's not yours, coz you have a model. Characters are their own individuals whether they came from my head or anyone else's, but if I get unsteady with my representation of my own character, the only place I can fact-check (or realism-check :P) is in my subjective morphy malleable mess of a head, whereas if it's, say, Brandon Sanderson's, I have a wonderful hard-copied 2000 pages to refer to and keep me on the right track. :)
Of course, you tend to know your own characters better, but I would tend to avoid roleplaying someone else's character if I didn't know them well enough/couldn't represent them, regardless.
Yeah . . . females can look however they want to and still be female. Same with males, and any other gender.
@Star: yeah, I get that, but it's still hard if you can't pull up the reference book/whatever you need when playing the character.
And as of right now, I don't think I'd be that great role playing as any other characters besides mine, and also I don't have any I'd want to try role playing with anyway, so yeah.
Also, I think Scarlet is going to be wanting to ask a lot of questions to Cyclonis. Unless she wouldn't mind answering questions, is there any plot idea you wanted to have for her?
Like, how to get her home or anything?
Also also, msd. Starting to feel really sleepy and wifi is acting up again.
(Nah, it's okay. Ask away.)
Also also, msd. Starting to feel really sleepy and wifi is acting up again.
Could you tell me more about your home planet? What's it like, and are there others who are named after their, um, /Terra/s too?
Scarlet: Saying this now, I'm not agreeing with Tama about using the slashes to indicate emphasis on words during a role play. She's just being lazy and not wanting to actually turn the word italic. Though I don't mind using them when I speak as an author.
*mumbles sleepily*
Scarlet: ... *after a mental conversation* Yeah, okay. That's the only reason I'm allowing it for now.
*nods her thanks*
Also... It's 1...
*awaits news of water turning back on*
*sighs*
There are plenty of terras - they are mountains, with people living on many of them. We use ships and skimmers to travel between terras.
And from your look earlier, you've never seen crystals. *opens her bag of crystals and hands one to Scarlet*
We mine these crystals. They power our technology. Some can recharge when not used, others can't.
*can hear water moving through pipes, but isn't sure if it's okay to use it yet*
@Tami I must go clean the house. I hope you get that shower. I won't see you before you go to sleep, so good night!
Sorry Kas, I'm off to take my shower and get to bed.
*hugs*
Thanks for the rp. It kept me entertained during the almost two hours of waiting. :)
I'll reply the next time we rp. I'm saving it on my notes, so I can keep track of info.
Good night from me. Have a good evening guys. :)
Haha, nice timing!
Bye!
Back. *hugs Hopey warmly*
( *hugs Tia*
*not very much here, but it doesn't look as though anybody else is at all, so,*
*:)* )
(Omfg this is so sh*t. Recently my school have started using Sam learning but it's sh*t. It's way to easy to select the wrong answer by accident without noticing and the stupid box won't go away so I can do my other homework its so f*cking annoying cause not only does it mean teachers can be lazy but it also makes students look f*cking dumber and makes those like me who barely even have computer access seem like they can't be ar*ed and people like me who aren't exactly computer friendly look stupid.)
Hey Taia and Jai.
Yes, education things can be meh. We had a few teachers who did the bare minimum too.
And MyMaths was awful. Sometimes it was wrong, actually. Did they not double check the answers when creating it?
(*growls*
Right. I'm never f*cking using that again. They can give me all the detentions they f*cking want.)
@Sil: If this is anything like MyMaths, I can absolutely agree. It's stupid and it's unfair on the students who have to put up with it and feel degraded and frustrated because of it. It sucks.
But one tip I can give is not to feel stupid because of it?
If they haven't already, your teachers will quickly learn that it's a load of crap - because kids complain. They whine to the teachers that it doesn't WORK, and every week there are SO MANY PEOPLE who couldn't get it done properly or at all, and there are excuses and it becomes clear that it just doesn't work.
Probably some parents complain to the school, too, I don't know.
They might not stop setting the work on there right away, but they will stop judging students' competence on that, at least, if they don't already realise that they shouldn't. ^^
(I have my own solution; watch pitch perfect.)
Hey, Kas. :)
Yeah. MyMaths indeed.
They stopped setting that for us eventually. Or, they use it a lot less frequently, at the very least.
Our classes would just refuse to do it?
Or leave it graded 20%, with the unhappy face, because nobody is going to do the whole thing a third time because their answers were 1.d.p out... :/
@Jai: That is, admittedly, a very nice solution. :)
(*nods* Yes it is. Pitch Perfect and chocolate Monetta.
I'm counting today as a win solely because I paid for my own laser quest instead of only half (Soph's plan), even if she did pay for lunch.)
(And, you know, I got to meet Soph again :)
Oh, it's May 4th?
Happy Star Wars day?
@Jai: Ooh! :) :) :)
And, oh- Nice! GLad you had a good time. :)
Happy Star Wars day.
I was recounting my life'a friendsgips and I realised I have /always/ been a terrible person; it isn't a recent thing.
For some reason, that made me feel a lot better. :P
When I want to find Inspector Calls quotes I automatically find myaelf staring at a new tab I have just created trying to remember what I'm doing
I think it's because my braib associates looking up stuff with google, so I tell it to look up something and it takes me to Google. XD
Idk if that's sad or cool.
Nothing to live for.
Kas . . . ?
Thanks, Tia. :)
@Star:
not
terrible
*twitches*
@Star also: xD
I do that, too, like 'OK, I need to go find my maths notes'
I like to imagine Google looking at me confusedly like '???'
And then shaking its head pitifully. :P
Tia?
There's everything to live for.
@Taia: Mmh. Mmh. Mmh. :P
Lol. XD
Sometimes I end up in the wrong place at school in the same way. The other day I stood outside my German classroom for several minutes. When my German teacher walked upstairs instead of into the classroom, I expressed my confusion aloud, which prompted the girl next to me to point out to me we didn't have German now. I then realised I was meant to be in French. .-.
@Elleni: :)
Kas, is everything okaY?
@Star: :P
- I have psychology first thing on a Tuesday morning.
Every Tuesday morning I walk to my chemistry class.
Straight past psychology where the rest of my class are waiting.
Sometimes I notice and am like 'Why are you all- Oh.'
Other times I go the whole way to chemistry, and then REALLY feel like an idiot.
I just... autopilot. :P
(Oh, I remember one time in year 9 I went into my German classroom, and I didn't know what time it was, so I wasn't sure if I was late or early or just on-time. And I was kind of panicking, and I went straight to my seat and got all my stuff out.
And then I was sat there for a good five minutes
And I suddenly looked up and realised these people were NOT in my German class
I was ten minutes late for Geography that day. :P)
@Taia: XD
Lol.
When me and my friends go to the toilet at school, we always get sone of the hand sanitizer on the wall outside the toilet as opposed to washing our hands, because in order to wash your hands you have to fight through a group of people and then once you do there's rarely any sinks available because of all the people doing their makeup*, so getting hand sanitizer is miles easier. However, a year and a half or so ago now, my friend B developed a mystery rash, and so in between her fingers her skin is all red and raw and sore. Naturally, as hand sanitizer is an alcohol solution, then when she tries to put it on her hands she enss up yelping and jumping around and shaking her hands because it hurts so much, so she tries to remember to wash her hands instead, but she NEVER DOES and just keeps putti g hand sanitizer on her hands. Seriously, she keeps coming up to us at break and giving us this really pained look and we're like "AGAIN?" This has been going on for a year! You know conditioned reflexes? Pavlov's dogs? SURELY her reflexes should have conditioned by now?? She is DEFYING NATURE!
*When I arrived in year seven, these girls doing their makeup in the sink were all scary older girls who scared me, put then I could avoid them by using hand sanitizer so I stopped really paying attention to them, but the other day I actually looked at them and they were all YOUNGER than me. I mean, I know being in year eleven with a September birthday I'm older than 99% of those in uniform at our school, but still, it freaked me out a bit.
I always assumed I would get into makeup and boyfriends and be a proper teenager when I got older, and as it hasn't happened yet my first instinct is to deem anyone younger than me who's, y'know, ibto that stuff as too young, but I'm slowly beginning to realise that, in actuality, I am an abnormality and will never become a Proper Teenager. It's not that I haven't got there YET, it is that I will never be there. The point of age when one starts on the path to become a Proper Teenager is no longer in front of me but behind me, and I am on a different path entirely and am not on the same journey nor probably heading to the same place.
As I never really questioned that my journey would be different, it's a little scary because like, I have no clue where on earth the path I'm on is leading. Where am I going? :P
(I'd rather me on my path than theur though. Mine is a lot more compatible with me, and I'm a lot happier over here).
Well.
That got off-track.
Huh.
*disappears*
*acknowledges Star*
*hugs Kas*
*hugs*
Star xD
That sounds unfortunate. :S
*laughs* Well, arguably it's harder to un-learn behaviour than it is to learn it in the first place?
Like, biting fingernails, and then they bleed and they hurt and it's like, 'why did I DO that??'. But then you carry on anyway?
It's easier to form a habit than to condition over it, kind of?
And- I would be of the opinion that there aren't proper teenagers.
If you don't like wearing make-up, don't? It doesn't make you different from people who do, except in that one respect?
Most people who do wear makeup don't know where they're going, either, if that's any consolation. :P
@Taia: As someone who started off as a skin-around-the-fingernails-picker an turned into a pretty-much-any-type-of-skin-picker, I would say YES to rhe difficulties of un-learning behaviour, but I would also note that putting hand sanitizer on yourself when you don't mean to is more like your subconscious self forgetting the decisions of your conscious self than what happens when I skin-pick, which is more your subconscious self ignoring the decisions of your conscious self and then having all the kinds of self that are neither conscious nor subconscious but somewhere in the middle say 'meh' and follow your subconscious self down, whilst your conscious self screams NOOOOO YOU IDIOTS!
:P
Ah, they are the proper teenagers. But that doesn't mean they're doing life any more properly than I am . . . ?
And no, I don't wear makeup. Sometimes I consider it, because make-up is pretty, but then I realise it would take TIME and EFFORT and I clearly can't be bothered to deal with THAT. :P
Also, I really do judge a book by it's cover as far as makeup is concerned, but it is also worth noting that my very weird friends all wear makeup. Makeup is not necessarily indicative of a parricular pathway in life. :P
I sometimes subconsciously say "I'm going to kill myself" before I can stop myself. It's rather worrying because this usually happens when I'm climbing into bed. I'm focused on getting under the covers and putting my head on the pillow and not hitting my head and shuffling down so I don't really have the time to realise what I'm saying before I've said it.
If that's at all relevant.
@Kas: I sometimes say random phrases to myself without any meaning. But yeah, that MIGHT be rather worrying. Could you insistently tell yoyr subconscious some contradictory phrases? My subconscious DOES tend to adapt to what I tell it if I tell it sonething enough times.
*phrases that contradict the 'I'm going to kill myself' one, not each other
I don't tend to consciously talk out loud.
*to myself
Huh.
I talk myself both consciously and subconsciously.
Not out loud, though. Only in my head, although sometimes I end up whispering this talking aloud, and then other times I talk to the world in general aloud. Which other people classify as talking to myself, but I don't because I'm not addressibg myself.
. . .
But anyway.
You can talk to yourself in your head.
*sighs and curls up*
:/
Are you okay?
(I is here)
@Kas: :(
Hi, Inky. :)
@Kas: If tgere's anything I can do to help, please say. :)
(*glomps* Star darling¬! how art thou?)
Hey, Chloe.
Okay, Star.
(*huggles* hello Kassy O)
*hugs back* Hello.
*nods at Kas* :/
I'm fine, thank you, Inky. :)
*hugs Kas gently*
(sorry, had to go do food things)
B: My brother has never seen supernatural p
C: WHAT!? What? How are you allowing this!?
You need to educate your brother.
B: I can't educate him he is like a 200 pound army brute
C: I educated my sister and she cries at Alice in Wonderland.
B: She is just a child
B: I can't educate my brother
C: All you have to do is taser him, tie him up and strap his eyes open and play it in front of him.
B: They said I can't do that anymore
C: Well, they don't need to know. You can borrow my taser if you want.
B: Lol yeah they took mine away last time. Apparently using it on a 10 year old is child abuse
C: What? That's so unfair.
. . .
What even is this. XD

Do you want to talk about yourself? Where do you live, talk about school, friends, family, hobbies etc?
