With Desolation only a few days away, I am still hard at work on the third and final Demon Road book.
From the beginning, I wanted these books to be as streamlined as possible — I wanted them short and punchy. Now, I completely failed with Demon Road, as it was a pretty big book, and only got slightly better with Desolation, which is shorter, but it looks like I'm finally getting the hang of this with Book 3, which will hopefully be the perfect length.
And the title?

Harry: ~I'll do anything for her~
hello k :P
(hi Frank... :/)
( -snuggles up to gemmy and holds her in his arms stroking her hair til she falls asleep- )
*offers hug* :)
What's up, k?
( *half heartedly hugs*
annoyed...)
(did the thing again.
started thinking and ended up in darkness ugh * slaps himself and thinks bout happy times*
I have done it again.
One year in every ten
I manage it——
A sort of walking miracle, my skin
Bright as a Nazi lampshade,
My right foot
A paperweight,
My face a featureless, fine
Jew linen.
Peel off the napkin
O my enemy.
Do I terrify?——
The nose, the eye pits, the full set of teeth?
The sour breath
Will vanish in a day.
Soon, soon the flesh
The grave cave ate will be
At home on me
And I a smiling woman.
I am only thirty.
And like the cat I have nine times to die.
This is Number Three.
What a trash
To annihilate each decade.
What a million filaments.
The peanut-crunching crowd
Shoves in to see
Them unwrap me hand and foot——
The big strip tease.
Gentlemen, ladies
These are my hands
My knees.
I may be skin and bone,
Nevertheless, I am the same, identical woman.
The first time it happened I was ten.
It was an accident.
The second time I meant
To last it out and not come back at all.
I rocked shut
As a seashell.
They had to call and call
And pick the worms off me like sticky pearls.
Dying
Is an art, like everything else.
I do it exceptionally well.
I do it so it feels like hell.
I do it so it feels real.
I guess you could say I’ve a call.
It’s easy enough to do it in a cell.
It’s easy enough to do it and stay put.
It’s the theatrical
Comeback in broad day
To the same place, the same face, the same brute
Amused shout:
‘A miracle!’
That knocks me out.
There is a charge
For the eyeing of my scars, there is a charge
For the hearing of my heart——
It really goes.
And there is a charge, a very large charge
For a word or a touch
Or a bit of blood
Or a piece of my hair or my clothes.
So, so, Herr Doktor.
So, Herr Enemy.
I am your opus,
I am your valuable,
The pure gold baby
That melts to a shriek.
I turn and burn.
Do not think I underestimate your great concern.
Ash, ash—
You poke and stir.
Flesh, bone, there is nothing there——
A cake of soap,
A wedding ring,
A gold filling.
Herr God, Herr Lucifer
Beware
Beware.
Out of the ash
I rise with my red hair
And I eat men like air.
Isn't it just so goddamn fun
To be left
Noelle?
Warninf be careful of spoilers for the second half of season 11 of Supernatural
I found this on Facebook- A song by Castiel
I have been saying "carry on" to "my wayward son" because "there will be peace when you are done" you just gotta "lay your weary head to rest" and "don't you cry no more" because "once I rose above the noise and confusion just" because I needed " to get a glimpse beyond the illusion" as an angel "I was soaring ever higher, but" when I fell "I flew too high though my eyes could see" people said "I still was a blind man. Though my mind could think" people said "I was a mad man" all the angels I kill "I hear their voices when I'm dreaming" Dean says don't worry "I can hear the voices say" for me to "carry on my wayward son" after that "there'll be peace when you are done." fixing the world you can "lay your weary head to rest" I be back Dean so "don't you cry no more" in my vessel "I'm masquerading as a man with a reason" though it looks like "my charade is the event of the season" I became Lucifer's vessel "and if I claim to be a wise man" about this "well, it surely seems I don't know" When we are together Dean I'm "on a stormy sea of moving emotion" its like I'm being "tossed about like I'm a ship on the ocean" its like "I set a course for winds of fortune" to break your bond with Amara "but I hear the voices say" they want you to "carry on" because I love you "my wayward son" hopefully "there'll be peace when you are done" soon you'll be able to "lay your weary head to rest" I'll be back so "don't you cry no more" I should have said "no" if I don't come back "carry on" because "you will always remember" me you need to "carry on" because with all the bad "nothing equals the splendor" if you die "now" and you see that "your life is no longer empty" with all you have done "surely heaven waits for you" now "carry on" because I need you "my wayward son" don't worry "there'll be peace when you are done" I'm sorry but you have to "lay your weary head to rest" the others will tell me soon that you are gone and they will say "don't you cry" Castiel "don't you cry no more" and they are right "no more" I'll see you in heaven Dean.
If there's a group plot, I'd love to be part of it. I was really disappointed the last one didn't work out, but I imaging we'd have better luck in the summer.
*likes Hamlet*
I'm going to see Macbeth later today.
( DON'T SAY THAT !)
I saw Patrick Stewart play Macbeth in a film once.. It's the reason why it is a favorite of mine
(*traipses in* I've had three cups of green tea today
It's filled me up
I'm not hungry at all)
I read that as "I've had up to three cups if green tea today" and I was like "The fuck? UP TO? Did you just drink three? Then why the "up to"? Did you leave some left in the bottom of the second one abd forget about it?"
:P
I like cold green tea..
Ok bye
Sorry, was summoned for dinnertime.
*hugs Noelle tightly*
I would certainly participate in a group plot, and I'm sure Aretha would collaborate with you if you wanted to, Noelle.
(Guys! I managed to light quite a few matches today!!! And I didn't drop them!!!)
I'd love to join!! Hopefully I won't be busy!!!
Good job Jai!!!!
:D
@Jai: :) :) :) !!!!!!!

(IT was Shakespeare day in college yesterday where we could dress up as our favourite character
No body was told about it
I so would've done it
The only person to do it was this old woman and she bounded into our English class trying to get us to guess
She was the tailor in the play in midsummers night dream)
Hamlet: [Looks up, reminded that reality exists] Oh, hello Noelle. How are you?
Fabi:
@Inky That sounds a really cool idea! It's too bad people weren't told.
Hello Ed. 'Sup?
(The duck Gem? Jack cares about everyone here)
(*kisses Jacks cheek*)
(Stay Jack honey..)
(*sighs* now Jack has gone for the night
Great )
Hello.
I'm sorry I've abandoned you all.
How have you been?
(*laughs* he mostly comes on here when I'm not here, he doesn't come here for me
He comes here to speak to friends, cause he is sociable and nice
Why is this pissing you off anyhow? I'd love to know what your problem is)
(Hi kas! How are you?
I'm okay at the moment )
(Nice to know ^.^)
*waves at Chloe and Gemma*
Oh, cool, Gem!
And um
I may have been thinking about an alternate Darquesse vs Mevolent fight yesterday before bed.
And I may have seen Darquesse in my dreams.
Which was awesome! :3
She wasn't violent at all.
(I dedicate this page to *drum rolls* Jack
*what a surprise*
But this one is just for the way he supports me..
We've had a bit of a rough time recently, but we are perfectly fine now
I haven't been the nicest person to him recently, but he has stuck by me and reassured me, if anything I've abandoned him many times which j am ashamed of, and I will work forever tryin to make it up to him
He truly is amazing, he is the rock I need in life and I am so happy to have such a supporting man in my life
I love you Jack sweetheart!)
Hear hear, Chloe.
(Thanks kAs *hugs*)
It was all my fault and I am undeserving of such an amazing person as Chloe
*leaves and stays gone this time*
(Don't leave Jack *reachss out for a hug*)
I'm fine.
Hello, Jack.
(Jack... That's not true *curls up in corner*)
(So do you
It was my fault
I'm sorry )
(It's not the truth Gem, it was just...was there any need for that snippish comment?)
*mutters about the fucking BBC and their fucking gender quota*
*god damn gender quotas*
Gemma, stop the whole "I'm going to yell at people because not everyone who comes on here wants to give me attention" thing.
You have Keiron.
Chloe has Ed.
Leave it be
Good night, Gem.
Hey, Star! Aren't gender quotas basically racist?
Oh, no. EVE Online happened. I'll have some tales to tell. I already do.
Also- *Snugs Hamlet* You are cute!
(Thanks Noelle
I'm not saying more; I'm sorry to anyone who got upset about this... I'm sorry)
Hello, Noelle.
It is rather nice to have someone who understands you. *nods*
Well, it isn't your fault, Chloe. Nor is it Edward's. I don't know what has put Gemma in her bad mood, but it has nothing to do with you- it is likely that something outside the blog has upset her.
So, don't apologize
(Thank you *sees time and sighs* if I want to get up tomorrow, I best be off to bed *leaves hugs for everyone, everyone here and everyone who isn't *)
Thank you noelle, again, you are the person who welcomed me here and made me feel welcome, thank you
Chloe, never ever say you did any wrong, you are amazing
Good night, Chloe.
@Noelle: Yeah . . . I can back that.
*is mostly staying out of this Jack/Chloe/Gemma thing because I haven't seen half the comments and dint have anything to add*
@Kas: Sexist. Race quotas are racist. :)
HOWEVER I do support quotas for on-screen jobs.
*hugs Chloe tight*
@Star I read it wrong, I must be tired XD
I SAW DARQUESSE IN MY DREAMS ALSO IF YOU HAVE A COMPUTER THEN LOOK UP EVE ONLINE THANK YOU *ENERGETIC HUGS ELECTRIFY EVERYONE* sorry for caps I am excited!
( a point of curiosity, has anyone considered that, in light of someone saying something upsetting or provocative, that continuing to focus of that might be a bad thing? Picking wounds seldom helps them to heal, it just encourages them to turn septic and fester. Perhaps dropping the subject, or even just letting it lie, might be a better way of dealing with things than bitching about who's angrier, sadder, worse off, more upset, has better opinions or whatever. I tend not to get involved with this stuff, frankly I find it tedious, but the situation is now chronic. as most of you are emotionally engaged here, I'm hoping an outsider perspective might help. Its embarrassing, frankly, that I have to point out such basic things. If something happens, calm down, be nice, and move on. Then its over. End of. I wont be interfering like this again, so don't bother trying to draw me in if that's how you want to react. I've seen it before on here. this is meant to be a happy place, and I came onto here with a lot of hope that it would be. to be honest, I'm a little horrified at what seems to have happened. That's my piece said. Good night, everyone.)
(I am sorry Bru
I feel bad about it
*goes off to bed for good*)
Hi Bruadar.
I've dealt with fights and bullying on this blog for a few years now. I get yelled at, one of my friends gets yelled at, and everyone says that we "need to stop talking about it". So nothing is ever resolved, because no one ever talks about what has happened when someone's feelings are hurt. No let everyone sticks up for each other. And, to be honest, burying the subject and pretending it didn't happen makes matters worse 99% of the time.
Thank you, but to be honest, I'm becoming very tired of having to suppress myself.
Also, why is it that you only point this out when I speak?
Literally everyone else has done this at some point, most of them within the past two weeks.
Jfc I'm so angry. Why the heck is it that it is always me?
I express my opinion once. I express my anger once. And I'm told to stop.
Jfc
(who said bury the subject? resolve it, by all means, but it doesn't have to descend into this petty squabbling. People seem to have the notion that expressing anger on this page will not affect those who read it, but all it takes is a single drop of poison to corrupt a well. reading these, in all honesty, needlessly emotive rants encourages negativity in others as well as in the author. misery is contagious. if people come here to escape all of that, then what's the point of having an atmosphere so charged with anxiety and bitterness of irrelevant grudges that you can no longer do that?)
I miss Annika.
:c
*has no idea what everyone is talking about so he backs away and watches*
@it(sorry, to clarify, are you accusing me of only choosing now to point these thing out because you said something?)
( *laughs* you? suppressing yourself? no one here surpesses themselves you all pile on and go on about it forever have we even tried just dropping it because up here in Scotland it works pretty well, don't like that thing? get rid of it.
and well of course struan because if the galaxy doesn't revolve around everyone's ego we're fucked. will the sun come up tomorrow if I die? )
@kas (i'm sorry you had to wander into this. Unfortunately, i'm not able to stay and try to explain. i'm sure you'll pick up the gist.)
@it (if thats the case, i'm sorry you took it that way, but any sort of assertion that I'm targeting anyone is absurd.)
(Good night)
You said it, just now, actually. "perhaps dropping the subject", "continuing to focus of [sic] that might be bad"
Bruadar, my point is that you only have seemed to start speaking about this now, when I have expressed myself. Have you read what Gemma has said? What she said on April 2nd? Or Keiron, on April 11th?
I'm sorry, but if you're going to say that you don't want people to be angry on here, at least make it seem as if you aren't making an exception for your friends.
I was making my points above, before your comment, because Gemma made vitriolic comments towards Edward and Chloe. She left, but I came on and put in my two cents. I rarely do that. I rarely even speak to Gemma and Keiron, because I know that they will become even more angry. What I'm doing? I'm sticking up for my friends, because they stood up for me.
What has made me upset now? That your words had such a condescending tone to them. You said that there should be less conflict and response to conflict, but that is literally what you are doing, too.
Well clearly the more I talk the more I get told that I'm a fucking idiot, so I'm going to go now because I really don't want to be ganged up on.
( bitch have you read what you say every day? have you read the amount of times we tried to be nice ? I don't know what I said but I stick up for it. You only seem to be happy when getting attention or money . that is what I've deduced in my time here.
oh woe is me
oh daddy bought me this :D
oh woe is me oh 20k shcoladship
ph woe is me sponsar me so I don't die )
( * is going to ignore half of you because you all seem to have a way of annoying me *
* will rp with gem and maybe check in every now and then* )
(*cant sleep*
*checks in to see what happens*
I'm sorry Gem... I really am
And keiron, don't speak to Noelle like that
She is a good person
She just stated her opinion and tried to help, which is amazing
Don't give her shit for being honest
Good night everyone )
( ( nah if shes going to be shitty I'm going to make it have a reason. grow some balls )
(And keiron? One last thing, a word of wisdom ..
Don't say such things like that, it doesn't make you look good
Gemma didn't look good tonight
I didn't look good tonight
We made a right mess of things
Saying things like that won't help anything or anyone
*poofs*)
Fucking hell Keiron.
I am almost literally speechless.
The fuck.
Several points
- Gemma has several times complained about people not paying enough attention to her (not trying to have a go at you Gemma, I'm trying to say that it's natural and human to want attention and to show you want attention), and Noelle has never complained about people not paying enough attention to her. Yet somehow Noelle is attention-seeking and thrives on attention (you say both things like they're a negative thing. Once again, all humans thrive on attention to some extent) and Gemma has nothing wrong with her (not trying to say she does, but if (if) Noelle's wrong for seeking attention, then by your logic Gemma must be too).
- Noelle is happy when Noelle gets money. Once again, that's pretty normal.
- Noelle is also happy when in the presense of people she's fond of (normal. You have a very positive reaction to Gemma's presence) and when she feels prettier than usual (which is pretty normal, no pun intended) or about gegging good grades (also normal). Those are the first few off the top of my head.
I'm sorry but you are ridiculously biased against Noelle. My and many others views of her suggest differently to your conclusions.
(I thought I could get on decently with you
But if that's how you are going to talk to my friend then I'm not going to bother
Nos da)
( i'm biased against all of you ... just most of you keep it in your pants half the time )
(I have no idea what went down here in the past hour or so but it seems that things kicked off.. And based on Keirons comment will likely kick off again..
*hugs EVERYONE*
Since I've no idea what happened I won't comment on it any more.)
(You aren't the problem Gem
I should've just... Calmed down
*hugs Jai*)
(Oh. Stuff is still happening. Didn't check the times sorry.
Chloe, shouldn't you be sleeping sis? *hugs back*
*hugs gemmu*)
Noelle thinks the same about herself, Gemma. (Oops. Almost forgot the "about herself". That could have been nasty). *hugs*
You're not the problem. I think nearly everyone, including myself, contributes to the problem. However, I don't think you're the root cause of the problem.
Tbh I'm not sure there is one singular problem. It's all more like a big jumbled mess of problem.
*hugs Jai* :/
^Oh and Noelle is incorrect
In case that wasn't apparent
((K BYE, fucking double standards thou, -is truthful-
Gemma is pretty but keiron still tells her to get a grip sometimes. same way she tells him to. )
....
Noelle has a point that for some reason people seem to be unprortionally unkind to her and I don't understand why.
And Keiron, you do realize Noelle has depression, right?
I have double standards?
*curious*
How?
*interested*
Noelle does indeed have a point. Star isn't entirely sure why either, but she thinks it could possibly be due to the fact people see Noelle as an easy target. However, Star is far from sure. Star is half convinced that the universe just hates Noelle. Star has no idea why.
Also, Gemma, you're extremely pretty :))
Keiron, stop being mean to Noelle or I will write a strongly worded message that will likely solve nothing.
Hello, Struan, Jai and Duggy.
(Double standards ?
I should be
But I stayed up late to apologise to Jack . I think we are okay now, thank god
I can't sleep
I'm trying...)
@Chloe: :/
( ( Dug you do realise that one of our only emails are about that right?
I don't give a shit everyone has had or has depression.
shes fucking bipolar there's a difference .
if someone is being a twat and you tell them that they are a twat and they get upset for being a twat is it your fault or theirs?
also if you continually tell them every time so as to hope they stop being twat yet they do and it looks like you pick on them but if someone else walks along and you tell them too then you are helping everyone. now just because the second person walks along less and doesn't be a twat as much doesn't mean the guy likes you more it just means he doesn't see you being a twat as often. )
(I'm trying propert now
Nos da)
How is Noelle bipolar . . . ? I think you have a fundamental misunderstanding of what bipolar disorder consists of. Google it.
Additionally, NOT EVERYONE IS DEPRESSED. I have never been depressed in my life. Sad, of course. Very upset, of course. Actually depressed? Never.
Depression is a mental disorder, not the normal state of human existence.
Additionally, if the way you tell them they're being a twat is unnecessarily cruel and hurtful, then you being cruel and hurtful was unjustified. Furthermore, I fail to see how this is relevant. How is Noelle being a twat? Who else on this blog have you accused of being a test other than Noelle?
(It only counts if you say it here btw.)
Are you fucking kidding me, Keiron? Are you fucking kidding me? "Everyone has had or has depression" what's your point?
(I'm not sayng she's a twat rght now i'm saying that that is the way I feel and I don't care for one more than the other she just seeems to ring the bell of needs attention )
(that you're trying to make it so that thats a get out of jail free card, it's not. just because you're depressed doesn't mean the world will take it easy on you... i've told you all before I feel the same about everyone disabled ect I don't give a shit. if you know whats up that is )
No, I'm not buying your argument.
The word "twat" implies "idiot" and "being a twat" suggests "doing stupid things and making mistakes."
Criticising Noelle for only being happy about money is not critivisibg Noelle for making a stupid mistake. It's criticising Noelle's character abd integrity.
It's been a year since I did English at school and I can actually feel how my skills have deteriorated, so apologies for that. But accusing someone of being a twat is easily forgivable as it's commonly accepted that someone can be a decent person whilst still being a twat. Your criticisms of Noelle imply you don't think she's a decent person. You question the morality of he actions. That's not criticising her twathood.
Really sorry for my poor analytical skills.
Of course depression doesn't give you a get out of jail free card. That's why I have in the past criticised Gemma when she has lashed out due to being upset. However, "Noelle had depression" does explain why she constantly posts comments that imply she's depressed.
You're being insensitive, Keiron. "just because you're depressed doesn't mean the world will take it easy on you"
No, the world will be cruel, and you'll join in because you're cruel too.
Stop being insensitive.
@Jai @Gem @ Chloe @Jack good night!
( in this metaphor #i am the world that will not take it easy on her just coz she might have depression)
Metaphor? Nah man I'm just saying that you're the kind of guy who likes to be mean to others and justify it by saying that that's how the world works.
At least that's what I saw.
You're a dick.
( it is how the world works. I'm not going to be nice to someone just coz, same way I'm not going to be mean to someone just coz. I have my reasons and if that makes me a dick so be it, I'd rather be a dick than a sheep )
Well when we don't take easy on Gemma bevause she /might/ gave depression, Tony you come online telling us to consider her feelings?
And dude, there's a difference between saying "Oh Noelle, you're always in the right because you're upset, so when you act like a bitch it's okay and understandable, so you just do whatever you want and it's fine" (disclaimer: I don't believe I've ever seen Noelle act like a bitch) and being needlessly cruel abd insulting her. You can not be easy on her without being hard on her. It's called being fair.
@Star Who's Tony????
So, both metaohorically abd literally, if everyone was donating to a charity (a good charity. Um . . . children with eye cancer), you'd rather yell "FUCK THOSE KIDS WITH CANCER I DON'T CARE IF THEY DIE" than be a sheep and donate money like d everyone else?
^don't
Not Tony. :P
( welll kind of yeh. I'd not donate because 1: I don't have money 2: I don't know that it actually goes to them let alone helps them what if I donate get invested then they die? everyone is going to why not donate to me? )
( + yes I do but I know for a fact Gemma does also you do the same but the other way round which just strengthens my side of not being on hers especially when I have before and all she's ever been is complacent or annoying to me. by my standards )
I'm not arguing for Noelle bevause I want us to give her special privileges for being upset. I just want her, and everyone, to be treated with basic human decency (and for me, "basic human decency" doesn't mean "doing everything one can to make her as happy as possible and never trying to say anything that might be hurtful ever," I just mean "not specifically attempting to hurt or upset her and not needlessly hurting or upsetting her and not targeting her and not calling her names abd not makung statements that devalue her", all of which you can easily achieve by completely ignoring her so it's not exactly a challenge), which, currently, she isn't being.
@Keiron: Walking away from the donation box and ignoring it is fine. It would be better to donate, but no one can donate to everything all the time. You can completely ignore the donation box and that is just fine. Insulting the charity, however, is a bit off.
I don't understand your second comment, I'm sorry. :/
( le Gemma= upset
le Gemma gets angry lshes out- keiron comes to help as he loves her...
le keiron thinks this is sometimes justified
le other people jump on her
le noelle =upset
says multiple things that =keiron upset
keiron makes the upset stop = everyone mad at keiron this = fair.
THIS! )
@Star Email
Ah, you linked me an ad. Capitalism ftw
NOELLE IS UPSET. GEMMA IS UPSET. CHRIS ROBERTS! I IGNORE YOUR POINT! I AM RIGHT!
( i linked you to the lion king... not my fault theres an ad on the vid )
Gemma is upset
Gemma lashes out
People lash back
Noelle is upset
Noelle never lashes out
People lash at Noelle
Other people lash back at said people
What has Noelle said that has made you upset, and is it worse than calling her names, suggesting she has a lack of moral credibility, and devaluing her?
Noelle rarely addressees you. She's never insulted you. However, you've often insulted her. I fail to see how you have a point to stand on.
His point is that she made him angry, and it's okay to be a dick to other when you're angry.
Wait, no...
^I would like to add that I was mirroring Keiron comment with the "Gemma is upset. Gemma lashes out." I am aware that Gemma doesn't lash out all the time and Gemma being upset doesn't always lead to Gemma lashing out.
( it's almost ALMOST everything. it has an air to it. a poncy air, I can tell I've been avoiding this type of people my full life. she does not agree with me. I have tried and I coughed it up and got an allergic reaction
right i'm actually leaving now I need to )
*spends 3k on his birthday*
*calls others poncy*
Wew lad
@Kas: If that's his logic, that's pretty much victim blaming. "I'm allowed to hurt her because she made me angry without every addressing me" sounds a bit like "I'm allowed to rape her because she turned me on without ever addressing me." Or you know, "I'm allowed to hurt him because he's gay and that bothers me even though he's never acknowledged me, but either way I'm bothered so I'm justified in bothering him back." And "You know, you have a really annoying voice and it irritates me so I'm going to pick on you and make your life a misery but that's okay bevause you annoyed me despite never even talking to me or trying to annoy me."
If Noelle was truing to anger you that would be different. As it is,you're completely picking on her. If she irritates you without doing anything to try and be irritating, it's your job to deal with your feelings. You are responsible for your own feelings and it'd only someone else's business when they'Re deliberately causing you negative feelings.
^ever
not every
^trying
not truing
( Kas I got a student loan... and chose to spend it on a car. I will have to pay it back... I am not poncy. I live in a council house with my mum on dla for my sis and no other income. yeh . we used to live in a homeless house, I used to be a ned. I would love to be poncy I want to have that life I want to be able to not worry about money but you know what I do. )
Sleep, Starryeyes.
Yeah, Fabi, I agree. Um. Have a good evening.
( remove the massive object from your arse and replace it with a vibrating one, then you might have some fun )
@Keiron Lol you sound poor and I dislike you all the more for it.
"it has an air to it. a poncy air, I can tell I've been avoiding this type of people my full life"
Pretty much what you sound like, Keiron.
( KAS just... go fuck yourself. you're being poncy right now... not rich poncy better than everyone poncy . )
...
I apologize. While that comment was actually quite justified, it was also rather rude of me.
What I meant to say was that y'all need to learn to communicate and resolve your differences without making things escalate.

Also, I'm not sure if I'm going to keep running the mini-game... I kind of want to avoid the blog now, but also I kinda still want to do it because I was really excited about the idea? Also I don't want people bickering to ruin what could be a really awesome thing for people who were and weren't involved? So I don't know. I'll see how things are tomorrow, I guess. But I did want to give those of you who were interested some warning in case I cancel it...
@Kas You too I guess.
I'm gonna go stick my feet in a bucket of ice water.
Peace out, dudes.
Ah yes, a valid point, good sir. The gentleman will now excuse himself from the common rabble.
(And I mean the ice water thing quite literally. I've been dancing en pointe all day and my feet are killing me. It's not a "this place is so terrible I'm gonna go stick my feet in ice water" sort of thing.)
(Though honestly that wouldn't be an undue response just now.)
So what if people are rich poncy? Some people who live in ghettos will be awesome, some will be awful people. Some people will have tons of money and be awful people, some people will have tons of money and be awesome.
I live in a house with five people. There are four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen and a living room. We have clean running water. We have electricity. We have heating. We can always afford to buy enough food to prevent us from being hungry. I take all of this for granted99% of the time. I'm not thankful that I can drink clean water and not have to worry about food, I'm not hankful everyone gets their own room and yet we have more rooms to spare, I just accept it. I'm privileged. Ridiculously privileged. To some people, I'm ridiculously rich and ridiculously poncy compated to a lot of people.I like to think this privileged makes me no better or worse as a person. Some people are privileged and they are brilliant people. Some people are privileged and they are awesome. Some people are really poor and are awesome, some people are really poor and they're awful.
If you dislike people for having money, that's as bad as disliking people fir not having money.
I would also like to point out that Noelle's scholarships are scholarships. It's not like someone walking up to me and giving me free money for the heck of it; it's not like winning the lottery. Scholarships are either for acadmic achievement (ie. earned) and/or for lack of money (ie. being poor, and hence not poncy).
I really must sleep soon.
Jesus Fuck
I go out and come home to this....
Wow
*leaves snacks, tea, and warm hugs to everyone*
*wishes people could just get along and stop the arguments*
It doesn't matter what people say, it's /how/ they say it. People reflect each other. If someone is rude, especially to someone who didn't do anything but talk, then their rudeness is reflected back at them. They don't have to stop sharing how they feel, but saying it in a nicer way would help others show more compassion towards their feelings. Lashing out just makes problems worse.
Please, I hope you all can see that. The blog doesn't need more arguing. We just need people to show their emotions in a calmer way. Feeling angry? Let people know in a way that won't hurt someone else. Feeling sad or depressed? Tell us about it, and be honest. If you're upset and feeling like you're not getting enough attention, just /talk/ to us. No one is being ignored. You may think that, but try to /look/. Even if just one person acknowledges you, that's something. Hold on to that.
And to everyone who doesn't have these issues, we all need to show we care more. About /everyone/. We're /all/ family here, and a lot of the time, families don't get along. But this blog family is stronger than that. I believe it.
So please, can't we try getting along better? I know people have issues, so let's try acknowledging them instead of turning them into blame and accusations.
*hugs everyone*
Everyone here is family and I love you all, okay? Even I get angry and think or say mean things sometimes, I don't mean it. It just hurts to see friends turning on each other.
I love you /all/.
Hi guys
(Rich poncy? Is that what Noelle is?
Keiron, is it worth pointing out that Noelle got the scholarships cause she's smart and had to work hard to get them? And it's important that she got them because her family may not have been able to pay for her university otherwise
Of course she spoils be happy
If I had those scholarships I probably would be bragging till people got sick of me )
(*my last point bejng Noelle didn't brag, so she's not 'poncy'
*goes to actually google that word *)
(*poncey' means pretentious
Ohhhh
Yeah, that's not Noelle)
*should not spoils for my earlier comment
(Where art everyone?)
*waves*
*not really here*
*voice is probably going to be dead tomorrow*
*sang for like, four hours at a karaoke place today*
*not literally, but still, a lot*
On Planet Earth, I'd assume.
This comment is just to say how amazing a person Chloe is
She is kind, caring, sweet, selfless and absolutely perfect
She is always there for me and I couldn't be without her
She is my happiness, she always knows how to make me smile or laugh and she is such an amazing person
I don't deserve someone so great
I only wish to make her as happy as she makes me
I love you Chloe
Hello?
is there any one here?
Hello, Anthony. Are you new here?
*echoes*
Here... Here... Here...
*might be, but wbd(will be distant); working on stuff*
*waves and offers Anthony a cookie*
...
*waves to Kas as well; looks like he beat me to answering*
Hey, Hope!
Hallo, Kas. :) How've you been?
*awkward moment when the distant one is less distant than the one who didn't say anything about being distant*
...
Right then. It appears that everyone disappears after the first comment...
Or two.
*will have to take a shower soon, and has a feeling that once she's gone people are going to pop up again*
Yep being distant, that's me! :S
I've been fiiiiiiiiine, Hope! How about you?
I'm doing good. :)
Had like, four hours of karaoke time, so my voice is tired from all the singing. But I still can't stop! XD Tunes just keep popping into my head and I'm humming them without realizing. Then when I catch myself, it's /still/ hard not to. XP
Also I've sort of... Stopped... On the story front. It's changing /yet again/! And I'm not sure if I want to follow this new idea or not. -_-
Ooh, what did you sing? :)
Brb making tea c:
/Lots/ of songs! Let it go(I got in the 90% for that!), On my own(les miserables, also a really high score), I dreamed a dream, Popular(Wicked- but I was so horrible it was hilarious XD), What hurts the most, Life is a highway(also really bad on this one, but it was fun anyway :)), Set fire to the rain, Rolling in the deep, Someone like you, Keep holding on, Innocence(another Avril song), The best day(Taylor Swift), Love Story, Only human, Seasons of love... That might be most of them.
My highest score was around 95% give or take a few decimal numbers. Average was probably 90%. A lot of my scores passed that percentage, but my lowest was about 86%.
I was with my aunt and friend, and we rotated who went next, so they probably also sang about as many songs as I did. XD FOUR HOURS. It was awesome! ((Throat's sore now, and as mentioned earlier, gonna be dead tomorrow, but sooooo worth it!))
I'm off to take my shower before it gets any later.
But I'll be back if you're still going to hang around, Kas!
Aw, that's awesome! I've not done karaoke for years but that's okay because I sound like a screeching cat! XD
And... I've not really read your story further, Hope. I'm sorry.
About a week ago, I made the terrible decision of playing EVE Online. And haven't stopped :|
Here is a vid of EVE by TEST Alliance Please Ignore:
https://youtu.be/mG5ldczjiGI
HELLO
Yes i am kinda new
*ME WANT COOKIE*
*throws cookies at Anthony*
That'll be $20 for the box.
Boy scouts need the monies.
YAY
*PAYS $20*
Kassy, what did I say about sharing? ;P
I've got a whole table loaded with snacks(sweets and healthy each- added the healthier stuff for those who want to watch their weight and/or stay fit), teas, and other beverages(again, added coffee, sodas, juices, and other -non alcoholic- drinks for more variety). The table never runs out of anything.
*would like to add that the snacks include cookies, cakes, cupcakes, potato chips(American chips, and I believe others would call them crisps?), assortment of chocolate... And for the healthier stuff there's carrot sticks, cucumber sticks, apple slices, dips of your choice, and other fruits*
*did I get everything?...*
The table is very long. *nodsnods*
And free for everyone to enjoy.
*mumbles something about visiting her treehouse and making more never-ending-refill plates and pitchers for the added snacks and drinks*
*Yawns*
Its 11:30 and i am tired so am gonna sleep
cya everyone
*visits her treehouse and squeaks in alarm*
Spiders!!!
*turns right back around and decides to make the dishes later*
Sleep well, Anthony. :)
*it's an hour later where she is*
... I ought to go to sleep too, but I'm not tired yet...
Hey Kas? Does EVE stand for something? Or is it just supposed to be all caps?
I like the song in the video, by the way. :) The scene itself is cool too, but I'm still a little confused about what the story/plot is. ^.^'
Unless it doesn't have much of a plot?
Doesn't look like anyone's chatting right now, but I wanted to say hi! My whimsical personality led me to revisit the ol' comment section of Derek Landy's blog, and I'm really pleasantly surprised to find that I still see names I recognise :D
Unless you... don't remember me... *sniff*
I'm on holiday so I'm sleeping in lots. I wonder if I'll ever catch anyone awake. But I'm planning on getting at least ONE person to notice me this week, okay? I have a good feeling about it - last time I came lurking last year it was just a whole bunch of role-playing and I honestly don't have enough of a god complex to win those fights you know hahahahaha
But now I'm seeing a lot of chitchat. Which I like and am adequate at doing. I hope this letter finds you well! <3
*SCREAMS*
EEEEEVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEE!!!!!!
*GLOMPS*
PLEASE STILL BE HERE. I KNOW IT'S LATE BUT I REALLY MISS YOU OKAY???
*HUGSANDHUGSANDHUGSANDHUGSANDTEARSANDMOREHUGSANDASDFGHJKL*
Eve!
I remember you!
AND I NEED YOUR EMAIL MISSY. STAR SAID SOMETHING HAPPENED TO YOUR OLD ONE.
AND HI MOSS.
*runs in*
*grabs purple mango from Lav's table*
*hides under the table and eats it*
And DUDE
When I asked if EVE stood for anything, before the comment, I was thinking of you!
Eve is always going to be Eve the ROCK, except you never liked that last part being in your name. :P
And you're probably already gone by now which leaves me talking to an empty space...
Or does it...?
*ghost noises from under the table*
