Demon Road Book 3 Will Be...
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?

«Oldest ‹Older 3401 – 3600 of 4833 Newer› Newest»Michael: *skins them expertly*
Tresha: So.. You loved her and she died, then you got angry at humans and killed to get revenge for her death?
Alys: *smiles* h have you d done this before?
Flauros; *hangs head* yes
@Eve: That's part of my mum's issue. She's like "oh some parents may have let their twelve- or thirteen-year-olds see it because they'll be like "oh it's Marvel so you can" and if it was an eighteen it might have put them off more" . . . or at least it might have put the cinema staff off letting them in.
Of course some parents will always be idiots. :(
:) Awwww. :) Thanks.
Michael: I've lived alone for quite a while in the woods, I've learnt to cook for myself.
Treaha: Do you love her..?
Alys: h how long have you b been in the w woods?
Flauros: *eyes have gone glassy* not anymore... I love you
Michael: I've been alone since I was eight.
Tresha: *frowns at the glassy eyes*
Alys: I'm so s sorry...
Flauros: I'm sorry for what I've done
Michael: It's fine.
*starts to separate the meat from the bone, he's going to make a stew*
Tresha: it's okay, I don't mind it.
@Star Yeah, I understand. But besides the potential scarring of children I think it was great that Marvel gave in the fans and took a risk with the strong content and it proved successful! But now since it made so much money, Marvel probably wants to make ALL their movies 15+ which will sadly mean kids can't see them anymore.
Or they'll just have to grow up :-) haha
Alys; y you can s stay here a as long as you like..
Flauros; really? *a small tear rolls down his cheek *
Michael: I really can't stay that long.
Tresha: *brushes his tear away*
Hey, it's okay.
@Eve: Haha. XD Maybe that was Marvel's plan; for their films to grow with their fans.
No, Marvel's usual films also make a ton of money. Hopefully they'll just now make a wider variety. :)
Alys; you c can..
Flauros; I didn't want you to know, I didn't want to scare you
Michael: It'd be rude, and dangerous.
Tresha: Oh I'm so very terrified.
*smiles gently*
Alys: t this can be your h home..
Flauros: *smiles* not even a little?
Michael: You should be safe in your own home alys.
Tresha: Flauros you turn into a giant kitty when you're trying to be scary.
Marvel will become our ruler
So a bunch of rocks just rudely fell on my head from god knows where, and now I'm tired. Goodnight Star, Chloe, and Jai!
Alys: I am safe
Flauros: a killer kitty
@Eve: How even. . . ?
Good night! :)
(Night eve ^.^)
(Night Eve!)
Michael: No one is ever safe around me.
Tresha: *rolls her eyes*
A big softy.
Alus: I c can try and h help you
Flauros; *shifts*
*Is making a cool arena*
It's a big circle and each quarter of the circle has a different biome
Michael: *fills a pot with water, chopping some veg*
Tresha: *tackles him, rubbing his belly*
(Cool Noelle :)
(The biomes in the Eden project are cool!)
Alys: please m Michael..
Flauros; *purrs*
Michael: You'll probably get hurt.
*puts the veg in the pot, humming*
Tresha: *grins*
Big bloomin softy.
Alys: y you'll l leave?
Flauros: *licks her*
Michael: When I find a safer place.
Tresha: *laughs, rolling her eyes*
*her cat wanders back inside, looking for Alice to ensure she's okay*
Alys; okay..
flauros: *leopard grins*
Alice; *is high and dancing around the kitchen*
Michael: *adds the rabbit meat and to the stew*
Tresha: *boops his nose*

Flauros: *sneezes*
Alice: oh! Hello kitty!

Michael: *adds a little cider and a bit of butter*
*also adds vegetable stock, salt and pepper*
*puts the lid on, leaving it to simmer*
*sits at the table*
That just needs a while for the flavours to mature.
Tresha: Aww, adorable.
Cat: *pads closer, sniffing slightly*
*growls quietly*
(Alright, Sil. It may be finished by then, then.
(Okay :)
Alys; okay... *lools down*

*looks down at his hands, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath*
*mist swirls slowly on the table*
Tresha: *smiles, cuddling into his side*
Cat: *sniffs her hand*
Alys: *watches the mist*
Flauros: *kisses her head*
Alice: it's me silly..
Beep

Michael: *focuses on his breathing, keeping it even and calm*
*a small, tiny fox emerges from the mist, it's ears pricked up*
Tresha: Mmm.. Warm.

*relaxes very slightly*

Hi again Kes!
*Her arena is looking bomb af*
Hi again Adra!
What arena is that?
Btw, are you still okay with being called Adra? Or would you rather be Noelle?
(Okay, I dedicate to the old faces and the new ones. It's great to see oldies and it's nice to see a few new faces around.)
Michael: Okay.

Tresha: *heads towards the noise*

Alys: *eats quickly*
Alice: nothing!
(It's fine :)
(*laughs at Jimmy Carr *)
Michael: You'll get indigestion
Tresha: Alice.. what's happened to your eyes
Alys: I'm s sorry
Alice: *smiles* nothing *looks down*

(Hi!
So... Gemma and Keiron are really gone? :/
*offers warm greeting hugs*
Hello Jai, Chloe, Noelle, Star and Kessie!
@Starararar Remember you mentioned how Eve is used in one of your passwords? Well, Ieni sounded like an awesome name two years ago when I was choosing my ebay username...)
Alys: *eats slower*
Alice; *tries to look away*
(Hey Kas)
Ah, you chose to accept life of the artifical kind? I'm glad we came to an understanding, Blogger.
Yo, Tia! What happened to Gemma and Keiron?
Michael: *keeps eating his own food*
Tresha: ALICE! Look at me.
(Hey KAs!)
Alice; *looks at her*
Alys;*finishes*
Tresha: *frowns*
Alice.. What.. What have you taken?
Michael: *eats the last two mouthfuls*
*takes both their plates to the sink*
@Kes Um. Argument between some of us and them. Or something. Don't read back, it's probably bad :/
(You- you stupid verification system! I will delete you!)
Alice; nothing... Why?
Alys: I'll wash up
Tresha: Don't lie.
Michael: nope.
*runs the water*
Alice: would I do that?
Alys; but it's my home.. You're a g guess..
Oh. That's...upsetting.
*raises hand* if you so read back, I'd like to add that I was suffering from sleep deprivation at the time.
Hate sleep deprivation. I can never judge what I'm saying.
@Kessie Yeah, I think we all said some things that he's going to regret.
Or not! *shrugs*
@Star Same here, I get cranky when sleepy but I stand by what I say.
Tresha: *glows and becomes furry*
*flinches back, hissing*
Alice what the hell have you taken?!?!
Michael: *starts scrubbed plates*
I'm a lodger.
(*raises hand* and I was going through an emotional time )
I wasn't going to read back, but...I'm gonna do it. See you on the other side lmao
Alice*winces*
Flauros; calm down...
Alys: don't t think of yourself a as that... It is nice to have s someone here for o once...
(Good luck)
Tresha: Alice.. Where did you get it?
Michael: *smiles, continuing to wash the plates*
See you, Kessie.

I deleted it later though.

Alys: *gets up* I I'll make y your bed
Tresha: Whatever you've taken. What's wrong?

I love you Chloe!
This is true. And even then... I was gone for several months once, and I'm still not gone gone.
Also, Gemma's been participating in my mini-game thing.
Tresha: Alice please.. Please..
Michael: *pushes at the door*
(Jaaaack! *covers your mouth*£
Dear god. Half the comments that caused the argument in the first place were deleted, but...wow.
Alice: what's it to you?
Alys: *tries to hold door close*
*Cute*
It was a bad day.
Deleted comment?
Hmm, searching for a Cortana portrait pic.

Tresha: what cookies?
Careful how you proceed, good man? Intemperate indeed, good man? Answer for the accusations I lay at your feet, or prepare to bleed, good man?
(No it isn't! It's my job to make you happy darling)
Alys; *gives way and runs to the bed, starting to make it *
Alice; chocolate...
Burr, your grievance is legitimate

Wait
Which link?
It looked really fun!!
Uh, idk. It was like the page before the fight? It was when you were talking about a new plot (I'd love to join if I'm not busy if you do one!!) and then put out a link to the beginning (ish) of a plot? I think it was the demon plot.
(I think Jai has gone to bed
So I think I shall
Nos da you beautiful people *leaves hugs*)
And then the link to your video was on that page. Or the next. Idk which
