A lot of people would take this opportunity to compile a Best Of list... and I am no different. And so, without further ado...
Best New Horror: It Follows
Jaw-droppingly good. A wickedly smart throwback to horror movies from the 80s. Bliss.
Best New Addition to a Franchise From Far, Far Away: The Force Awakens
Good GOD I loved this. It has heart, soul, warmth and grit — a huge departure from the prequels and a wonderful continuation from the original trilogy. I couldn't have done it better myself.
(Well, I could have, but they didn't ask, so...)
Best TV Show: The Walking Dead
This was a close one, with Game of Thrones running a tight second, but its White Walker mayhem was matched by episode upon episode of zombie thrills. And unlike GoT, I didn't know where The Walking Dead was going to end up...
Creepiest Horror Seen on Blu-Ray: Sinister
Oh I love a good creepy horror, and this hit the spot.
Most Disappointing Horror: The Babadook
I don't get it. I just don't.
Best New Addition to a Franchise Thought Long Dead: Fury Road
A car chase that lasts an entire movie. How awesome is that? Not as feminist as I'd been led to believe, but still a thousand times more awesome than most other movies.
Best YA novel: The Rest of Us Just Live Here, by Patrick Ness
Get this book. Read this book. Love this book.
I didn't get to see all the movies I wanted to, didn't get to watch all the TV I wanted to (Ash Vs The Evil Dead and Jessica Jones being top of my To Watch list), and definitely didn't get to read all the books I wanted to, but all in all 2015 was a good year.
Next year is going to be busy. I've got the second Demon Road book out at the very end of March and the third and final one out in September. But I've learned my lesson, oh yes. No more six month publication schedules for ME, boy howdy. A lot of things have suffered as a result of this workload (that still isn't over, by the way) and I want to get back to a nice and healthy communication routine with you, my lovely Minions.
2016 is going to be FUN.

MrBBWolf: Yes she is. Chris is pretty too, to me. And Ed is pretty to mummy.
*Shifts from one foot to the other, a little uncomfortable*
:/
*hugs, though- Silente is not discomforting *
(*hugs back* What's uncomfortable? Is it the roleplay..?)
Lilith: *looks at chris* pretty!
MrBBWolf: *smiles*
And you're pretty too Lily.
*ruffles her hair gently*
Lilith: really? *giggles*
(Oh wait, is it the alcohol?)
Hak: -stares at her too much and catches him self and finishes his food- ~I need to get her out of my head!~
No... sorry I shouldn't have said anything
MrBBWolf: Yes really.
*smiles at her*
(Don't apologize, it's okay. You can say whatever you want here, so long as you aren't insulting people or their beliefs or illnesses.)
Lilith: *kisses him* I love you daddy
MrBBWolf: *smiles*
Love you roo Lily. Hey, why don't you run off and grab your art set, the one I got you for Christmas, and bring it back here? Daddy has to go out but Chris will draw with you, okay?
Lilith: okay!! *jumps down And runs off*
*hugs Noelle*
MrBBWolf: *turns to Chris, sighing slightly*
I'm sorry, okay?
:/
That's good in theory.. But in practice, when I try to speak my mind, I'm called an "attention whore", or, according to one experience in particular, a "bitch of a bitch".
So.
no, thanks.
Chris: you need to feed
(I don't think you're an attention whore if it helps? Nor do I think you're a bitch of a bitch. I think you're awesome.)
(*offers Noelle a hug* you aren't an attention whore)
Of which I thank you both.
But like
You can have the best, yummiest soup ever- so many types of vegetables in it. But one drop of gasoline, and it isn't edible.
MrBBWolf: And I will now but.. please, not like this?
(*nods* Yeah, I understand that. I hope one day you'll be able to move past the negativity of others..)
(That's a creative analogy ^.^ you have a gift for writing
I'm sorry you feel that way)
Chris: I care for you...
(If I'm distant it's because its making me say I'm not a robot without letting me say I'm not a robot.)
MrBBWolf: I know
*pulls him close gently*
And I hate having to feed but please.. don't make me feed with you in a mood with me..
(Okay)
Chris: okay... *kisses his head*
MrBBWolf: *leans against him, kissing him gently*
I love you.
(I was drinking the apple and raspberry one ^.^ which is why it was so good to finally drink it.)
Yona: -finishes her meal too-
Thank you Yun. You're cooking skills are amazing. I wish i had been taught how to cook at the castle.
-smiles-
Chris: -*kisses* I love you too
..
Just
(She means J2O's.)
MrBBWolf: So you aren't mad?
(I remember at my uncles wedding a few years ago I got one from the bar and finished it before sitting down so I went bak for another and the nice bartender was like 'finished already?'
Chris: I could never stay mad at you
MrBBWolf: *kisses him, smiling*
Well, enjoy art time with Lilith. I'll be back as soon as I can be.
( it's J20 It's not like she's drinking vodka from the bottle... It's not alcoholic)
Hak: *smirks* I wish we could all cook... it'd be easier.
Chris: okay, my love
MrBBWolf: I'll see you soon.
*walks out and uses his pocket watch to go to the sucu/incu realm*
*sighs, walking to the bar*
Lilith. *comes back* can I draw you Chris?
Chris: sure!
(..*facepalms*)
MrBBWolf: *bar for singles to mingle*
*looks around awkwardly, rubbing the back of his neck*
Yona: Yeah. If everyone could hunt too it would be good.
I don't think kija could hunt something without tearing it apart.
Jae-ha is probably fast enough to catch something alive like a rabbit or squirrel then bring it back. Although i think everyone can fish right?
Kija: -nods in agreement to what she said-
-so do the rest-
Zeno: Zeno just likes food that mother cooks!
Yona: Yun, the next time you cook something please teach me how and i'll make it next time, ok?
-smiles-
Yun: Sure Yona.
(Although i do have a bottle of jacob's creek, presecco and champaigne in my room from my birthday. Also mulcat or something which isn't alcoholic and pink fizz)
( *facepalms more* )
Hak: *smiles listening to them all *
Yona: -stands up and dusts her dress-
Is everyone ready?
-everyone else stands up-
Hak?
-looks at him-
(Shall j be succubus?
*in mood for dirty nursery rhymes*
*sews mouth shut*)
(Yes please Chloe :)
(Lol it looks like you just asked chloe to be your succubus, Jai. You do know what it is right? Like properly)
..well
Hak: -snaps out of thinking about her- Yeh... I'm ready. ~ she's touching herself why does she have to be so hot~
( Baby wanna come to Jelly baby tomorrow and try that drink with 15 shots I was talking about? )
(Well, noelle? -tilts head-)
(*facepalms*
GEM! BAD GEM!)
(*laughs uncontrollably* )
Succubus: *sits nervously in corner of pub*
(I thought jelly baby was only open on Thursday nights ;) plus you're coming shopping with me tomorrow. You have to carry my shit and tell me i look pretty even when i don't :P)
MrBBWolf: *spots her and feels sorry for her*
*walks over, smiling gently*
Hey, you okay?
(-bursts out laughing-
A succubus certainly isn't nervous, Chloe. They're masters of seduction. They only want to use men for life force. Then they probably kill them and drink all their blood too just to have a good meal.)
Lulu: *looks up at him* I w was waiting for a date... He's late... By an hour...
(I know but there's always an exception ^.^)
Well, I got the message loud and clear
Bye
( :) you always look good and I will do all of the above things too :D )
(Succubi can be nervous.)
MrBBWolf: Oh.. I'm sorry to hear that. If he's blown you off like that he really doesn't deserve you though, in my experience if a guy doesn't show after half an hour and doesn't call, he's an ars* and doesn't deserve a second chance.
(-smirks-)
(Imagine what it would be like...to have that much power over someone. I want to feel powerful...i thought of working out and shit. This isn't the world where i can carry about weapons. I want to kill someone so badly...i could have killed that little prick round the corner...i imagined killing him. Beating him to death on the pavement... i'm just waiting for someone to hit me first. I probably won't stop.)
(Byii Noelle...)
Lulu: really?
(Bye Noelle..?)
MrBBWolf: Yeah.. sorry to have to say that but it's probably true. You could always wait longer though. Who are you waiting for?
@gemma (would you be referring to young master jack, perchance?)
Lulu: no one special... He wasn't really nice... But it still was the only offer I've ever had...
(Yeah. I almost completly lost it that day. I texted you as soon as it happened.)
MrBBWolf: offer?
(He was provoking both of us. Wasn't that the day he threatened you?
Or the day he was sitting behind us and called you my boyfriend and you almost lost it too?)
Actually, as it happens
Nevermind.
I'm not leaving
(well, then you might like this. our little friend decided, seeing as he wont come near me anymore, to try to take a rise out of one of the other sixth year boys. can you guess the result?)
Lulu: to be my special one... Never had anyone take an interest in me before...
(Omg omg please tell me)
(Hiiii bruuuu)
(i'll give a hint. It involves a wall, the little bam's face and a considerable amount of inertia.)
(suuuuuuuppp?
sorry, trying to sound a little more "street")
(Oh hell yes. Who was it that he tries to piss off? How long ago was this?)
(Don't apologise
I've had twi cans of cider and I am very happy ^.^)
(Hi again Noelle :)
MrBBWolf: Hey.. listen, don't just settle for any Tom, Dick and Harry okay? Love is a special connection and you can't make love happen, not really. You can fall in love slowly, but you can't force love. Don't just get with someone who doesn't deserve you, because then you'll never be happy. You might be sad now, might be lonely, but surely this short time of sadness is worth the years of happiness, of love and joy and relief and fun with your soul mate, instead of years of mediocre happiness?
as it turns out, I'm not having food tonight. The company doesn't deliver to our house..
(two days ago. no idea, sadly. all the others have closed ranks and no names are being named. the headmaster is rather displeased, you can imagine.)
(Maybe try grab some toast or something Noelle? Just something to keep you going.)
Lulu: *looks at wolf in awe* that is true...
(I has a sausage on my lap)
MrBBWolf: *smiles*
Exactly. Just hang in there, you'll find your someone one day. And they'll think you're everything they want, everything they need, and that you are perfection.
(Nuhhhhhhhhhh Lulu D: Don't want Wolf and Lulu to do anything!)
Well, also coincidentally, but not really, we don't have bread. Well, we do. But it has mold growths.
You see, my family is very, very goddamn poor right now.
For perspective, my mom is so broke that, if I get into Harvard, I won't have to pay a cent.
(Ah. Do you have any food in the house that has carbs in?
I mean.. mouldy bread isn't really good, even if you pick the mouldy bits off it still tastes yucky.)
*hums to self*
(I was only asking because the night it snowed he walked home in front of me with his dad and glared at me as he passed. If i see him now he'll have a fucked up face, right? :D wish i knew who did it. Wish you did...not to get in trouble of course.)
(Night, I suppose)
(I saw him today, actually. he looks remarkably well for someone who got a smack a few days ago. the little arse has some sort of annoying healing power.)
Oh. Well. Usually, if I see a mould spore, I just get rid of the piece. If it's grown there, the chances of there not being colonies on the other pieces are slim.
And yes, we do have a few.
But I would rather eat nothing than stuff myself like a turducken.
(still, it feels good to see him get a well-deserved smack.)
Wait Chloe, rp..
(I'm not saying stuff yourself just.. eat something? Even if its just a few pieces of raw pasta?
*yes, I'm aware its weird to eat raw pasta but I'm weird okay*)
(Hi Jack.
Nos da Chloe.)
Hey jai, how are you?
I feel awful now...
Heh.
Well, I have quinoa pasta. That's pretty good. Idk of i trust it, though.
Maybe I'll make applesauce...
Mm
(Fine... I'll rp till 11:30...)
Chloe! I'm so sorry!!!!!!!!!!
Are you sure? That's late...
(*smiles and cuddles Chloe*
I'm okay Jack.
Just try eat something, please? Humour a weirdo.)
(What the he'll? Haven't rped with you in ages darling
I'm sorry for being me...)
(*cuddles Jai*)
(Yes it does.
Hows the stuff with the trees?)
(Never be sorry for being you Chloe!
*hugs*
Be sorry for being mean, sure, but never for being you.)
Don't apologise! It was my fault, being you is the best thing you could ever be!
Ed: *looks over a board on the bar*
(I was mean ti jack... I should be struck by lightening)
No Chloe! Don't say that, your not mean, you are the kindest, sweetest him an being and you deserve only happiness and good things
*is walking the twins and pushing baby Cole arounf blogland and walks infront of bar*
(Jack she had two ciders she's possibly a little drunk. Try not to take offense. Although sleep may be the best thing for her right now.)
(tricky. I got into a dialogue with one of the councillors. Tried to feed me the council line. So you can imagine how that went. Still, the fight goes on. But things continue to move slowly on every side, not just ours. So that's something.)
(*rolls into Chloe*
Are we continuing our rp or no?)
(I was horrible to you Jack...
That was terrible)
It's something else gemma
(We can Jai...)
You weren't horrible Chloe! You were reasonable and I deserved it
Ed: *calls out to them through conveniently placed Window*
(I know we CAN, but do you want to? We can leave it till tomorrow if you want?)
I'll see what I can do, Silente :)
(I want ti Jai...
You deserve happiness Jack)
Oh hey honey!
So I tried something new today-
I didn't talk to anyone at school, unless spoken to
What was weird was that not a single person started a conversation.
Even when we had to work together.
Silence.
I think the universe hates me.
(I wish i could help...even if i could talk to them i wouldn't know what to say i would just get really pissed off. You on the other hand also get pissed off yeah but you're good with words and if anyone can convince them it's you.
Ah, ok Jack.)
(thanks for the confidence. if I cant convince them I'll settle for minor assault.)
(Thank you Noelle :)
Sometimes I find it kinda therapeutic not to talk to the people in my class..
You sure Chloe?)
(right, I'm offski. night all.)
Noelle, you are an amazing author, I remember the old rp plots you designed, absolutely brilliant!
Chloe, you make me happy
Ed: *brings her into the bar and gestures to the board, beaming*
(I'm sure Jai
Nos da Bru
Can I have a hug Jack...?£
(Her plots were amazing. I wish i could write like that. She has a talent.
Minor assault? Meaning take less of them?
Goodnight Struan.)
*smiles whilst looking at the board* I missed that smile..
MrBBWolf: *smiles*
Exactly. Just hang in there, you'll find your someone one day. And they'll think you're everything they want, everything they need, and that you are perfection.
*hugs Chloe*
Ed: Awwwww, honey... Flattery gets you everywhere hehe *points to a poster among the ads which reads a wanted poster* see...
(*hugs Jack*)
Lulu: thank you, mr...?
*kisses hom* not flattery if it's true... *looks at wanted poster*
*doesn't let go of Chloe*
*the poster reads wanted, tegan flame*
Ed: honeeeeey
(*hides face against jacks chdst*)
Ed... Why is Tegan here??
I love you, Noelle.
I'm sorry no one at school started a conversation with you...
MrBBWolf: I'm Wolf, Mr B. B. Wolf. And you are?
*smiles*
Chloe...
Ed: don't you see? She inherited my power right? It's her... From the future
-Yona helps pack up their things and they start moving again towards the castle-
Jae-ha and kija, on the roof. Shin-ah stay with the rest and keep an eye out. Or two.
-giggles-
I'll be fine anyway, i promise.
Hak, help me get past the gaurds that we encounter. Zeno and Yun stay with shin-ah.
(*shakes* I love you Jack)
*picks Tegan up and cradles her closely* why is she here?!
Lulu : l lulu...
I thought so too, Sil
But I spent most of the day miserable.
>.<
And so I came home and did some unmentionable things to myself
Thanks, Ed.
Though, no one remembers it anymore. It's frequent that I see people use characters with the same names as some of my demons...
But whatever, it's a new place now
(Sorry I thought this posted)
Alastair-
*Hugs him*
I remember it noelle, you welcomed me on the blog, you made me feel welcome here, thank you
I love you too Chloe *hugs*
Ed: she must have... Followed my path and travelled back to the last and... *reads the poster* it doesn't say what
*hugs her tightly*
(*hugs ed*)
I won't allow this to happen to our baby girl!
(I'm sorry that you spent most of the day miserable. It sucks when people you thought of as friends ignore you when you're quiet..
I was never around for your rp's Noelle, I feel like I missed out!)
MrBBWolf: Nice to meet you Lulu
*he speaks smoother the more hungry he is, hence the lack of a stutter*
*hugs inky*
Ed: then we have to stop her...
Lulu: a are you new here?
(Night guys)
*hugs back * Okay
(Night Chloe)
Hak: *smirks* Define get past?
#9 night chloe )
Night Chloe
I'm off too, night
:) *Gives Ed a skulcake*
*Sits in Alastair's lap*
You would have liked it, Silente.
I tried hard on it... Did my best to include everyone. Even those whom I had quarrels with.
(Night Ed.)
(Night Jack and Chloe!
@Noelle The only rp's I got to spend with you were
The first one, which is when adra was pregnant I think? She'd been kidnapped and Sil was trying to protect her.
Then a few small ones where Adra was "evil" adra and either threatened to eat Sil slowly or where she was destroying as much as she could.)
(Her rps with Trip were adorable.
Then there was the rps with zaf and niccolo was taken to adras lap to try and save him from being taken i think.)
(And the one that blogland was on fire and adra was helping save everyone)
*cuddles Noelle* You did mastermind some of the greatest plots I've seen on this blog, and all of my personal favorites.
Yona: Try not to kill them. Please.
-peaks round the gate- two gaurds each side-
-walks further down-
Give me a boost, would you?
Oh, wow...
So you really haven't written with me and Adra at all, huh?
...
Sorry?
Thank you, Gemma.
*And snuggles with her muffin* You're biased, because you got a wife out of it :P *Kisses his chin* You always liked Adra too, anyway.
Hak: Got it, -readies his hands-
(No, not really, but that's mainly just because I came onto the blog and you grew kinda distant, which is just luck of the draw I guess.
It's fine though, having both Adra and Alastair threaten to eat her at separate times was oddly adorable, and the rp's I have done with you were cool, even if short.)
(You know what this means, Noelle? You have to come with another group RP idea so Jaimie can experience them first hand ;)
Yona: -takes a deep breath, blushing-
-rests a hand on his head and steps on his hands, facing the wall-
(*rolls eyes and nudges Gemma* She doesn't have to come up with another rp just because I haven't been involved in one, hearing the stories is fun too.)
Hak: -is trying not to blush- (what is she wearing? :P)
*kisses her head* She was always my favorite to flirt with.
(Well you were saying you don't like her being distant either. This will get her involved again. It might even take her mind off of real life stuff...)
(Just her normal dress. Want me to remind you what it looks like?)
( yeh sure)
(Mmmm.
I'm gonna sleep now, night guys!
See ya gemmy keiron Noelle Alastair and the lurkers!)
(Sent it on skype cause you wouldn't be able to see it here.)
Yona: Oh god please don't drop me.
-wobbles slightly-
-rests her hands on the wall-
Ok, lift up your hands slightly.
Noelle actually already had a new plot in mind, and did try to start something, but not many people joined in.
(Night sid -hugs-)
Good night, Silente.
And yeah, what Alastair said.
I /did/ try to start something mid-December, but I was dutifully ignored, so I dropped it.
*Nuzzles her Alastair* I know. I could tell. :)
(Well if i see her trying a plot i will join if she wants.)
Hak: I won't drop you ~ omg she's touching me she's so close to me~
-raises his hands slightly- Step on my shoulders? -steadies himself as a gust of wind picks up-
(Ah. December is always a very busy month for me so that may be why. My birthday was the 4th, my party on the 5th, Frank came up, my brothers was the 21st, Christmas, Sophia's RP. I wasn't on a lot apart from that RP and i only knew about if because she e-mailed me asking what characters i would like to be held hostage.)
( I seen your plot and read it... It was nice, but seemed very much a you need to know things about stuff to join in, and I don't know stuff nor things so I decided that it was just for you and alastair )
Yona: -nods- puts one foot on his shoulder as the wind blows her dress up-
Ahhh!
-pushes it back down with one hand holding onto him tightly with the other-
-is bright red-
Y-you didn't look, did you?
Hak: -blushes holding her legs looking up to make sure she didn't fall- Uhmm... I meant to save you ... I had to!
Yona: Hak!
-would kick him if it didn't mean that she would fall-
-steps up, taking his arm and stands on his shoulders-
-grabs the wall and pulls herself up-
Can you jump up or?
-holds a hand out to him, steading herself-
*pets his kitten* I love you.
Hak: I'll get up myself you drop down. *takes a run up jumping gripping at the indentations until he gets the top and flings himself over*
Yona: -jumps down hoping to land with Hak catching her-
I dedicate to Keiron cause he's the best boyfriend ever and i want to spend the rest of my life with him. I love you. -kisses-
Hak: *lands and opens his arms looking up to her*
Yona: Woah!
-falls into him-
( awwww <3 hehe :P I love you too baby... I want to spend the rest of my life with you too :D -kisses- )
Hak: *catches her and smiles* The black dragon still has some tricks up his sleeve. -realizes he's still holding her and his face goes crimson-
Yona: ~oh i wish i could stay in his arms like this all day. But i need to convince Tae-jun to take the throne or at least take better care of his people~
-blushes-
Follow me.
-they make their way to his room being careful to hide from gaurds along the way-
Yona: Stay nearby.
-goes inside-
Tae-jun.
Kan: princess Y-Yona? What are you doing here? How did you get in the castle?
Yona: May i speak with you?
Kan: of course.
-offers her a seat-
Yona: -goes and sits next to him-
I have something to tell you and you maybjot want to hear it...
Kan: Go on.
Yona: Your fathers men are going out to collect taxes from people that have no money...they're destroying the villages, killing people, they're dying of starvation. They're...raping women...
Kan: What?! My fathers men would never do such things. How do you know this?
Yona: We were at one of the villages when it happened. I tried to protect them but...t-they tried to...
-takes a deep breath-
They tried to rape me too.
Kan: -his mouth drops-
Princess...i'm so sorry...what happened to the man that did this?
Yona: They're dead...Hak Son killed them to protect me.
Kan: -stands up and paces-
Take me to the village. I want to see this for myself.
Yona: Alright. We'll take you.
Kan: We?
Yona: You dodn't think i came alone, did you?
My friends are waiting outside. We'll meet you at the edge of the north forest just outside the forest. Please don't bring any men. They'll recognise me.
Kan: i understand.
Yona: -gets up and leaves-
-whispers- Hak, where are you?
Hak: *walks out from behind a bush* I'm here.
Yona: let's go. He'll meet us outside.
-they make their way back and get to the wall again-
~no way am i going through that again~
Jae-ha!
-jae-ha floats down-
Yes yona dear?
Yona: could you fly us both over? It worked. We're meeting outside.
Jae-ha: of course.
-picks her up in a wedding lift and hops over the wall then puts her down-
-offers to do the same with Hak-
*Enjoys being his kitten* *Pulls him away, so she can have him and Niccolò to herself* *To hug*
Hak: *done what he done last time not wanting to be touched by him*
Jae-ha: Fair enough.
-goes up to the roof to bring kija down-
-Yona waves the others over and they head into the forest but stay at the treeline-
*is pulled away with her*
(*watches Winnie the pooh^)
(*cuddles Chloe* How you feeling?)
MrBBWolf: Not exactly. I don't come to this realm often, usually I'm in the Terra realm, but when I need to feed or if I'm visiting friends I come to this realm, the Fabula realm.
*shrugs, shifting his wings slightly with the movement*
