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?

Thank you, Inky.
I think I look kinda cute in them :)
Hello Ed
(Hey Jacko, I'm cool, you?)
Michael: I doubt that. He's just an idiot.
*reachea Alys' house*
Tresha: *hugs him back*
I just managed to break my bottle of Lush
How
Good good jai, I is good thanks

Flauros: don't worry about her
Hi.
So, I saw The Jungle Book. It was okay.
(Hey kAs ^.^)
:) Hi Jack.
@Kas: I haven't seen it
I'm a little, mm.
Bad.
I'm sorry, Star.. :( *Loves Lush*
(Scarlett Johansson Snake)
Michael: thanks.
*walks inside*
Tresha: she's like my sister, of course I worry.
Ah, I'm sorry Noelle, any way I could help?
Alys; t that's okay, I set t the bed for you
Flauros: she's strong, it's okay
(*offers Noelle a cat to cuddle*
My email is always open Bach, but I'm afraid I won't be able to reply until morning here, everything is locked up)
Michael: I still think you should have the bed.
Tresha: Mmm..
Alys: you're o only staying t the night. You s should have c comfort
Alice: *is out of her bath and is spaced out on her bed*
*waves at Chloe, Noelle, Jack, Jai, Star and Fera*
I found it amusing because of references TEST has made to The Jungle Book before, particularly the "I wanna walk like you talk like you" song XD
And the moment where the monkeys jumped at the bear after he roared :D
And we didn't get to see enough of the snake :S
And I liked parts of it, but it's not something I'd rewatch in its entirety.
Offensive song i just wrote, using "wonderful world" as my basis
I see children in red
Green roses too
I see them glow
for me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
I see skies of grey
cloud of cough
The bright blessed day
Another nuke went off
and i think to myself
What a wonderful world
The colors of the rainbow
Do not exist in the sky
there is nuclear waste
of people going by
I see friends loosing hands
Saying "AAAAHHHHHOHHHHH"
They're really saying
"fuck this hurt like a bitch" too
I hear babies cry,
I watch them blow
They won't learn much more
than a fly with flue
And i think to myself,
what a wonderful world
No, actually I think to myself,
Why haven't I died yet?
Oh yeah.
@Fera EEEVVVEEE ONLINE
hello :P
(That doesn't sound like a wonderful world! What about the Faeries and dragons! D:)
Michael: But you're the lady of the house, you should have the bed.
Tresha: *snuggles against him*
Alys: t you don't know w when you'll be C comfortable again..
Flauros: *kisses her head*
Yes, they got a guy (girl?) from TEST Alliance Please Ignore to sing this. Yes, they got more people to join in half-way, just like in the real thing.
Are you, are you
coming to the creek
they stung so hard TEST
they said that we should leave
Strange fleets will happen here,
no boring would it be
if we form at midnight
here in wicked creek
Are you, Are you

Where old bros are back
no one wants to flee
Strange Fleets will be happen here,

Where I told you to jump
learning to fc
Strange Fleets will be happen here,

They went to an sleep :O
@Noelle: No, it's okay because I still have the contents of the bottle intact, it's just the neck of the bottle is broken so I can't close it. :)
Lush is glorious.
(This is why they've distanced themselves from us
Because we abuse the earth
We are losing our connection with the ancient beings..)
Michael: I'll find somewhere..
Tresha: *yawns slightly*
Thanks, Noelle. It was kinda fun because I asked the ladies at the polling site which delegates had pledged themselves to the canidate I wanted and it stunned them because apparently not many people, let alone my age group of 18-21 years old, know to do that or let alone even go out to vote.
Alys: you're a always welcome here
FlaurosF you need sleep...
(Nos da)
nos an da
@Zaf: :) I live in England so I don't know to do that, but either way if I was in America I probably wouldn't know either. :P
Yeah. It's unfortunate that delegates aren't bound to who they had pledged though.
:/
Our poor planet
*waves at Zaf*
When are you watching Civil War?
https://youtu.be/XucTjLTbk7w
Good night, Chloe!
Brb
I only learned because I do a class called Career Apprentice and I am up in my favorite history teacher's class and she has freshmen who can't vote but she told them and myself to ask and sure enough I did and they told me.
So emotional kasumi :'(
*Nods*
Well...
I took government.
So.
I learned about government.
https://youtu.be/r7sbnDvGtf4
OMG stop kasumi, you're making me lacerate :'(
But... there's so many! There's about 30 propaganda videos of the ongoing war, as well as just normal videos such as TEST's Fleet Commander Spotlight: https://youtu.be/2yWwlill8dc
awawwwwwwwwwhhhhhhhhhhhhXD
I took government on the AP level last year.
*noelle doesn't know*
*noelle*
*noelle doesn't know*
*She*
*She doesn't know*
@Noelle Who knows?
@Fera And the last vid, a compilation of people and more than one Fleet Commander getting salty.
nobody
it's hilarious XD
And now I'm just gonna...
*sits and stares*
I'm not a robot.
Ok, well.
*Noelle curls up*
*facepalms* I swear when it comes to some things, i am 3 steps ahead of everyone, but when it comes to some really simple stuff, i am a fucking idiot.
I didn't realize you were kas...HOOOW
@Fera it's gotta be the profile pic.
Yeah, but still..KASumi...you're sending videos of some actually banterous stuff...and the (cortana) ....wtf, how did I not realize..
oh my gOD
*Has suddenly had a severe PAIN IN THE ROOF OF HER MOUTH
I am beginning to to rink that the universe has a vendetta against me
What do you think caused it?
Noelle? What's up?
*shrugs at Fera*
Still not happy with the profile pic, even though this one is good.
Oh, and TEST is best. Because we get war propaganda. And the enemy gets laughed at.
Oh, Noelle! :(
*think
*In so much pain
I mean, I usually get headaches when a storm comes through, of which a massive one is literally hailing on me right now.
But
It's swollen. How is the
My mouth
The roof of my mouth
What the heck
No idea, Noelle :S
@Fera *shrugs*
oh my o
Oh my
Ok I need a second I might be back
Jesus Christ this hurts
...
*gives a small wave*
*offers Noelle some cool tea if it helps*
Sounds painful... :(
*wants to watch the TEST videos, but can't at the moment*
*might check them out later*
Oh, and Kas, did you see that thing I wrote from the prompt I used? It's really short, but I think you'd like it.
*waves back a page or two*
*Noelle has tried apple tea, but it make it sting* *Thank you though*
What's TEST?
Alao, I just saw Fera's song, and all I can think of is the Gone Series, and I don't know why.
Aww. :( Well, you're welcome and I hope you can find a way to soothe it.
Hey again Kessie
Hey!
Adra, have you tried, like, ice water?
Thank you Lav.
I have taken some medication, which has helped a little, but I'll have to ask my mom. Not that she knows anything about orthodontry
Huh....weird. i never heard of a swollen roof of the mouth...
*There is hail coming from the sky* *Ice water*
*Yeah, but it hasn't done much*
*Tried to eat something, which didn't help a lot either*
Thank you friends, though.
*But the food she had was a pop tart - so it was yucky anyway*
@Kes: I don't know the details, but I think it's a gaming (company? Would that be the right word?) thing. It's related to the game EVE online and Kas is really interested in it at the moment. Ask him if you want better details. :P
Ah...that's too bad, Adra. *hugs*
*hopes she feels better*
@Lav: Ah, all right! Thanks!
*nods to Noelle*
*hopes the pain won't last and that she finds out how it happened so it won't keep hurting*
@Kes: No problem. :)
*offers warm hugs to those who want them*
@Noelle I... hope you feel better soon. You may have to visit a doctor?
Hello, Hope and Kessie!
@Hope You wrote a thing? I'll try to find it.
*accepts a warm hug*
:) Yeah, but if you don't want to look back, I can look for it and copy/paste it here.
*accepts and returns the warm hug*
TEST Alliance Please Ignore is more of an organisation/group (as is TEST Squadron, which I've been an active member of for two years)
Unbelievably, there have been more than 60 propaganda videos created by TEST and their allies in the past month! :O
Linking this again because lovely song: https://youtu.be/mG5ldczjiGI
@Hope The pirate? Hmm, I could write my own little paragraph or several of that prompt?
Or I could let my mind wonder over so many possibilities... :|
@Tia: oh! That's pretty cool!
@Kessie Yep! Propaganda can vary, though. Some of it is hilarious, some of it is parody of current events, some of it is just showing what TEST does. So yeah! *waves arms excitedly and thinks about Hope's prompt*
Yeah, the pirate ship one. :)
That, plus the EVE game has given me an idea for writing an adventure sci fi with pirates, ships, space, and possibly steam punk, but I don't know about that last one.
It would be like Treasure Planet meets Pirates of the Caribbean. :P

*comes across another video from a player about 'what EvE really is'*
*instantly hears swearing right after the warning for strong language pops up*
That's actually hilarious, and I haven't even gone half a minute into the video. XD
*sees Noelle's link*
*shakes head sadly*
The fact that some people find amusement in tormenting helpless kittens hurts my heart...
But I'm glad that they got rescued before anything for worse.
*would donate money if she had any*
@Hope hmm, being inspired by EVE is kinda weird since so much of its plot isn't based on characters or background or interesting stories told by its makers, but by the players themselves. I'd kinda expect inspiration from Mass Effect (Dragona!) or Star Wars. Like you said, you don't know why they're shooting. But idk, spaceships are spaceships.
@Noelle those poor cats! :c
@Hope that's one of the best videos out there, I shared it earlier. But yeah, the point still stands, this isn't a book or a film that you just experience once, or a game that you "complete" - if you're battling over a location and lead a fleet, victory may result in you profiting off that area, a loss may cause your organisation to crumble, making a mistake may make you the laughing stock of thousands of people for years to come, culminating in somebody taking your angry voice and putting it in a youtube video.
Okay, well, it's the way you portray the game rather than the players.
Cause, honestly, /I'm/ imagining/creating my own players. :P
*watching more of this video and oh my gods, it's hilarious how much people are swearing XD*
Seriously though, I've come to think of /that/ kind of swearing as just empty threats, so it doesn't bother me too much.
And I'm joining in on the laughing. Silly Mittani :3
And that's actually a dubbed video with real dialogue, the original was a trailer.
See
I I ever found someone torturing an animal like this
I would beat them up.
Then call the cops
Just
Some people are sick. These poor babies..
Actually, scratch that about creating my own players. I'm creating my own version of the game. :P
*aka, creating ideas for a new story which probably isn't the best thing to do as I still haven't even finished the last two stories I came up with*
*nods at Noelle*
I'd probably yell at them, crying and trying to protect the animals they're torturing as best as I could...
Although if they tried to hold me back, I'm all for struggling/kicking my way out.
@Noelle *cough* punishment = 2 weeks community service I'm guessing *cough*
@Hope Yeah, I may send you a voice message tomorrow about it? But I'm interested in what your ideas about sci-fi might be.
*Nods*
:(
Poor kitties..
Also, @Kas about the dubbed vid: yeah, I figured. :P
@Hope at the end, after the scream "I'd call that op (operation) a success XD
@Hope Here's our TEST Alliance Fleet Commander: https://youtu.be/2yWwlill8dc
(Though I think we now have someone more confident since we're in a real war)
@Kas: :) I'm all ears. XP
But as I mentioned earlier, my idea is a mix of what I've seen and read from movies like Treasure Planet, Pirates of the Caribbean, and some comics about steampunk worlds where air ships are the norm and stealing pirate ships is a very possible thing. :P
*competent
And I'm off to sleep. Good night, Noelle, Hope, and Lurkers Anonymous
We (as in Blogland)(do we still call it Blogland?) should do like an ongoing story where we each write a paragraph and see where it takes us.
I feel like that'd be fun.
good night..
Night, Tia!
*will look at the link after finishing the video she's still on*
Trying to multitask on an iPod is really hard. Especially when YouTube can't play the video in the background.
Sleep well, Kas!
*nods to Kes*
Yeah, we still call it that(I do anyway). And that does sounds fun. :)
*late comments are late*
>.<
Omg this is so exciting to wait for the results for Pennsylvania
Hey Zaf! Long time no see!
(...i miss my girlfriend)
Hai Kessie!
I'm like so excited waiting for my state's results to know my vote actually counted. I just hope the canidate I voted for won....
Here Kessie *Hands xir a little bear to hold* *Can't do much else*
*You know
Oh my god my cat just sneezed in my face
Anyway
You know
I hate Kasich, because he defended Planned Parenthood in Ohio. And that was so stupid.
But he is the only republican I can tolerate.
Which
Is kinda sad
When is it announced?
*defunded
Polls closed in all the states voting 17 minutes ago, 8pm Eastern
Conneticut has Trump and Clinton winning
Rhode Island projected Trump and Sanders
Ooohhh RI my new pal :)
*holds the bear*
*thank you*
...Adra, I think we might be the same person
It's actually super crazy that Zaf is voting though?? @Zaf I remember when you were 14/15 this is. Absurd.
I'M YELLING I HAVE THE "DRUMPFINATOR" EXTENSION AND FORGOT ABOUT IT
and I thought Zaf was actually writing Drumpf instead of Trump this extension legitimately makes my entire life better.
Haha it is.
Oh and I know I hope PA didn't vote for Clinton but in our state you can only vote for the party you registered as.
It is entirely possible, Kes. Except, of course, I am not as unique.
*And please don't take this the wrong way*
But I think your identity is very fascinating. *Loves learning about people- quirks, perceptions, etc.* *Anthropology, and such*
Heh
I just looked it up and Trump won Republican, it doesn't say Democratic yet.
DUDE KES. I'M GOING TO BE TWENTY IN A FEW MORE WEEKS.
Also, hi Zaf.
*doesn't have much to say on the election front*
I do know the people who were outside said they had a lot of people ask for which delegates in our district pledged for Trump, they said they finally just wrote down the names because so many asked.
Okay wait- WHAT???
Really???
That's stupid, to be bound like that.
Yeah, she is a little crazy. *Why she prefers Sanders*
Lav, you're olddddd
:0
I'm old too
I'm seventeen now
I know, Noelle. In our presidential election we can vote split ticket but we can't in the primary and if you go Independant you can't vote in our primary. You can vote in November though but I hafta do an absentee ballot due to being away in New Jersey for school.
@Noelle: I knoooooowwwww. XD
I don't wanna be old! >.<
@Adra: Dude, you are SO unique stop these LIES.
*blushes*
DUDE LAV
WHAT
it's less weird though because I feel like I haven't known you as long?? And also you've always been way older than me, so in my brain it's less bizarre that you're an adult. if that makes sense.
@Adra/Zaf: What's the whole binding/pledging thing about? I have never heard of that before
For once if they interupt Agents of SHIELD I won't be mad because I kinda wanna know!
Oh.
In PA each congressional district has delegates in total 17 are picked by the people. The delegates either pledge to vote for a specific canidate or will vote how their district votes.
Guys I JUST turned 15 on Saturday what is this WITCHCRAFT
Like when I went in to vote- I had to pick 3 delegates of like I think 5-7 but I picked the three I asked who pledged to vote for who I want to win.
@Zaf: Ah, okay. I thought you meant that, like, individual voters pledged their votes and I was like. What.
(Also I can now confirm that I am not a robot)
Sanders is shown winning 51.1% of PA beating Clinton
Yes!!!! Trump won PA.
Wait, LAST Saturday???
KES. HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY WHY DIDNT YOU SAY THAT EARLIER???
*hands over a slice of cake*
Also, I figured, but still. Thought you'd be a little surprised. :P
@Kes, in primaries, it isn't about popular vote, just that when there is a certain amount of people, they get a delegate. Kinda.
PLEASE BABY PLEASE BABY
Nice @ Bernie
I swear to god I can't take anything anyone says seriously when I have this extension on
@Lav: Saturday the 23rd :) *eats the cake*
KES IS TWO YEARS SMALLER THAN ME
@Adra: I know, that's why I was confused.
*also likes Sanders more than Trump*
Shame that he's not getting enough votes though.
*probably should have mentioned that earlier, but just thought I'd say it now*
KES IS A SMALL CHILD
*coughs*
*adds to her last comment*
But if he's still winning over Clinton then I shouldn't complain...
*saves Kessie's birth date*
Just for next time. ^.^
*has to go*
Bye guys!
*leaves hugs, snacks, and drinks*
Bye Lav! Love you!
Well now Clinton got the check mark for PA
:(
Least Trump got the check mark for PA. My vote counted for what I wanted xD that's just so exciting to me to think here I am in 2016 voting because I can now vote thanks to the women who fought for that right less than a century ago.
*nods*
*But Kessie is fifteen* *So young* *Thought Kessie was older than her*
Think I'm going to vamoose, too; I've got books! To read!
Valete, and I love you all.
See ya.
Gonna watch Agents of SHIELD in 3 minutes
Vale, Kestrel.
*is going to be 15 in about 2 months!*
*feels old*
*thinks people on here are ancient :P*
*except Kes*
*xe's not ancient*
Kes Dug you're both so YOUNG. It's SCARY xD
@Noelle oh ouch. If stings like a which when the roof of your mouth swells!
I AM NOT A ROBOT
I'VE DONE THIS FOR TWO DAYS NOW
STOP MAKING ME DO IT TEN TIMES
Do you want to see the dramatic conclusion of the Mafia mini-game?
Are you potentially interested in joining a future round?
If the answer to either of those is yes, click here.
This is actually turning out to be quite a lot of fun. :-) :-) :-)
[is also old enough to vote] [will be voting in the general election, but not in the primaries because I'm not registered with a party]
@Kes and Dug-- Y'all are pretty cool for people who are knee high to a grasshopper.
wake me up....wake me up inside!
Wake me up inside!
Saaaave me! Saave me from the nothing I've become !
Helluh. I want you to f*** me Jerry, f*** me!
I think I'm ancient :P In my mind I'm 15 with you guys
(My sister recently turned 15..
GUESS WHO IS GETTING THICK RIMMED GLASSES!!!!)
guess who's getting thick rimmed!!!
(I don't get it...)
@Chloe: Is that a good thing or a bad thing?
(It's great! It'll make me look really nerdy'
Mum knew I'd pick them the moment we saw them xD )
Getting rimmed means somebody licks your asshole out.
(Ewwww!!! Why would someone do that?!)
@Chloe: :) :) :) Awesome!!!!
(Thank you ^.^)
*feels like I'm gonna pass out* *bleh*
*thinks I may suffer from low blood pressure because both my parents do and it seems like my brother does*
cuz people...
(Rest star!!!!!!!
But.. That's eewwwwwww!)
@Chloe: I would but I'm at schoool! I can't curl up I a little ball on the floor here because it's socially unacceptable!
@Chloe: Some people like eww
(Make sure you rest at home!
True..)
@Chloe: Won't be there for um . . .
*frowns up at time at top of screen* five hours but okay
(That sucks
I only have one lecture today)
I only have one hour of chemistry and one hour of general studies, but I came to school for hours earlier anyway for three reasons
a) I could get the bus in instead of walking
b) got to see Cat for an hour this morning
c) I work better at school than at home
^four
*eats a few fruit polo's to see if it makes me feel less like passing out*
*realizes we're on the last thousand comments for this post*
*is also not really here*
(Sorry I poofed
Waiting for English!)
I like Fera's sense of humour
@Lav: Been a while since that's happened. :)
*distant. May float in and out*
Hello!
I'm here but drifting.
(Back!
In English, we are doing essay plans as a class
Today we had to do one by ourselves
I was so screwed
Then the teacher went around checking them and my mood ring turned bright pink xD )
I'm going to do a chemistry test in ten minutes. Sad face.
@Chloe: XD
@Chloe: What's bright pink mean?
@Star: Good luck!
(Have no idea
I think embarrassment xD )
You guys really should play mini Mafia!! It's soooooooooooo much fun!!!
