And aww shite... Not coming anywhere near me... Hopefully next time though?
Ya. I've finished it already and it is excellent! Well done Derek... a very good triology!☺
What exactly is involved at the festival? Like I'd want the book signed but the nearest to me is Edinburgh. Will I still be able to get it signed at the festival or would I have to go to Newcastle?
PS. go check out my blog :)
hahaha
Where the hell is everyone??
There is literally no one around anymore and it's frightening...
It's hilarious how no one cares anymore.
さようならブログちゃん！
(None near me this time.)
Hahahaha screw the tours.
eh I do agree that he could've picked a much better ending but you also gotta consider that he was probably pissed as hell. He might have just not even bothered with it anymore. Actually...yeah I don't think he cared for the last 2 chapters.
but yeah shonen jump can go jump lol
I sure as hell am thinking about it myself XD
Yeah I guess. I think I'm just like 100% more pissed because Kubo literally treated my favourite characters like trash. If there's two things I care about in this whole series it's Yoruichi x Urahara and Chad x Ichigo. Their backstories were amazing and had so much room to grow and what? Urahara doesn't appear? Chad's last contribution to the series was "I'll fight the stone statues I'll clear a path for you" then Ichigo just doesn't go back that way, he just leaves Chad behind???
It was a great finale for Rukia x Renji fans though. Actually Ichika was kind of cute I guess. Don't know why her face was the last panel of the whole series though.
Look, you've gotta consider....he was most likely rushed before this. And he had more plans to do but within this many chapters, what did you honestly expect? Yes, he could've done it better but there would be still so many things to bitch about/would've been left open. It's honestly not worth to dwell over it. Shonen jump pretty much fucked all of us in the ass with a large dragon dildo. Kubo had so much more planned and is not his fault that there were some complications with the editor. Even if it was his fault, the editor is still in fault as he fucked over millions of fans for some selfish reasons.
Rukia x Renji .....I just didn't feel that tbh XD it was so artificial, cuz he didn't have any time to actually put any proper context behind it.
Also, Chad x Ichigo? Nah, I never saw that as a possibility. They were just really good friends...
Oh no I just mean the relationship between Chad and Ichigo haha. Chad's whole back story in the Soul Society arc was so epic and moving, the flashbacks to them in high school and Chad's whole "I only throw punches for Ichigo" motivation. Then he becomes a boxer, seriously?!
Rushed or not I expected sooo much better. Kubo genuinely wasted about half of his time just breaking Ichigo's sword over and over. Definitely blame Shounen and the editors, but man Kubo had the chance to fill in some plot holes and actually ignored them.
Biggest insult from Shounen though, not even giving him extra pages for the finale! That hurt. I genuinely didn't realise that was the last page, I didn't realise the chapter had ended. Ugh.
Yeah, I am not saying he didn't waste any chances, it's just that I mainly blame shonen for this
lol yeah naruto got a huge double chapter as the last, then a spin off and so many other things...just because it was doing better in japan. Fuck shonen jump.
Oh no, I think the biggest kick is that it's getting made into a live action movie. Kubo specifically stated he had created something that live action wouldn't be able to handle...coincidence much? Don't think so.
Excited for the book!!!
I really want to go to a signing but like Fabi said, they're not close :(
Oh shit did he say that? That's actually hilarious then. Yeah the live movie can only be trash. It will probably compete with DBZ Evolution for worst anime movie ever.
I just love how this arc is called the 1000 Year Blood War, and we don't actually see the blood war, at all. Like what, he couldn't dedicate even one single chapter to actually showing the war from 1000 years ago, the whole point, the whole reason for this arc, the reason everyone is fighting, no? just wow
well i mean....I think he thought it would be waaayyy toooo rushed and he didn't wanna do it that way...so...I think he's gonna release a character and a handbook and gonna explain everything he left out in those.
No, it seems like the quincy were not quite settled. Yhwach probably just wanted to do the same thing back then and that's why it broke out.
Umm, I have my hopes for the live reaction movie but there's a 90% chance it will turn out worse than a dog shit that has been infected by tape worms-still hoping, just hoping it'll be somewhat bearable.
Yeah but like, so much teasing oh man. That brief brief panel showing Yamamoto from 1000 years ago using bankai and kicking Ywach's butt, hot damn. Just a chapter would have been nice :(
character book? lol, last one was fan made or something, cyborg izuru kira hahaha oh shit.
Yeah that sounds about right. Don't even know what kind of story they hope to cram into a single shitty movie. Maybe they'll make a trilogy or something, that could be okay I guess.
yeah, if they had made sequels, that'd be fine. IF they pull it off and it's actually a decent movie (first one to be about an anime)and maybe even get attention for bleach....oh lord, I would suck them off right then and there lol. That would just be the ultimate relief for bleach fans.
haha, I am thinking if I am ever gonna be rich, I'll give Kubo a chance ot finish off his series as he wanted to and re-start the anime, without a doubt.
(Tonight was great
I had
A pint of cider
A small magnem
A jack bomb
A rekorderling cider
A strawberry sunset
A jäger bomb
And another Jack bomb
I'm not smashed.. I just had a great time
I saw most of my English class and they hugged me :3)
Good luck, Derek. I'm happy that you have all of the tour dates planned, and I'm sure it will be fun.
...
*Once again, is uncomfortable with excessive alcohol*
:) I'm glad you had fun, Chloe. :)
(Thank you star
In Jack MURPHYS they started playing cherry pie and the bar maids got on the bar and started dancing and spraying a drinks hose at everyone)
@Chloe: :) Sounds like a good time.
(It was fun
Legs ache from dancing xD )
@Chloe: :) :)
Jailbreak (not sure who the author is)
Without friction, we'd all fall down
All our wounds are just bumping into each other
I whip you where I was whipped
Now I can breathe, you suffocate
You throw words as hard as rocks
To break the chains around your thoughts
You strike me below the knees
Now I send that out to three
Either you, or I, or both go with him
We are taking time, bonds and clothes
Retaliate even before the first grenade is thrown
To show you the precision in my pain
To create more of the same
Oh, these chains aren't gonna break
These tears aren't gonna pay for anything
If we're all connected then no one can move
If I'm infected then the virus is you
We've got blinders on and we fail to see
That all we are, is love
And all we are trying to be, is more love
Our Problems are how do we get more of what we already are?
More love
If we're all connected, anybody can be our liberator
We just have to be a liiittle less wounded than the next
And just a few more centimetres wider in the chest
Wear their scars wide open to the test
So the cumulation of generations that were suppressed
Give the opposite of what was received
Change the currency
We're planning a jailbreak
The whole world is exchanging their whips and chains for a shiver
Hi :)
(Lauren! Hey!)
Hi Inky!!! How are you??? :)
I got the job at the bookstore :) I had some training on Wednesday and I start in a few weeks :) I also was invited to have coffee with one of the people ill be working with this weekend :)
(I'm feeling like shit tbh
Awesome!!!!!
I asked if I could have a job at a bar last night, the one where bar maids dance on the bar but there's no vacancies!)
Haha dancing on the bar sounds really fun :) well um I wouldnt do it myself but it does sound fun :) You should just keep looking for jobs you like :)
Im so sorry that you feel bad :( Are you ok???
Still don't like the name of it...
(It looks fun.. I do like that sorta dancing
Il be fine.. It's a long story I'm not ready to share)
GEMMA OMG HOW ARE YOU)
It's happening
Ooh, tours :)
No where near me, but still.
(Quietly hoping for another Aus tour that includes Tasmania this time, but I know it's unlikely :P)
If anyone cares...
On the 3YL blog, it's finally happening. The names.
(*stomach grumbles*)
Michael: come on!
*grabs her wrist, doing his best to run towards the door*
*he'll have to run back to the house*
*he can probably convince Alys to call this off..*
Al: *sighs and follows*
Michael: *eventually they'll make it to the house*
*Michael is huffing and puffing, clutching his ribs, in serious pain*
*stumbles to the door, trying to open it*
*the house is empty, but he doesn't know that cause he didn't check the windows*
Al: locked.. Huh.. Do you have a key?
Michael: No I don't..
*goes to the window, trying to see in*
It's dark
Al: maybe they're out
Michael: can you get us in?
Al: *pulls out gun and shoots the front door lock*
Michael: *flinches at the noise*
I meant WITHOUT breaking anything!!!
Al: *shrugs and pushes the door*
Michael: *walks in hesitantly*
Any sign of anyone..? Or of the date..
Al: check the kitchen
Michael: right, yeah.
*pauses*
Don't steal anything.
*walks to the kitchen, looking around for ANYONE*
*obviously there's no one *
*church bells can be heard in the distance*
Michael: *spots a calendar and freezes*
*runs back to Al, ignoring his screaming ribs*
*grabs her wrist, not bothering to explain*
*sprints as best he can, wheezing and squeaking slightly, barely able to stay on his feet*
*running towards the sound of the bells*
Al: oh! *follows quickyl* slow down!
Michael: *shakes head, stumbling*
*is shaking in pain*
*he can barely see anything, the pain is causing black spots in his vision*
Al: *sighs* love is for fools! Escape while you can
Michael: *wheezes, shaking and slowing down, hugging himself tightly*
*shakss his head*
I can't..
Al: gah!
Alys: *is being walked down the aisle by flauros*
Michael: *stumbles, grabbing Al to keep himself upright*
Please Al..
Al: what do you expect me to do!
Michael: just help me get there, please!
*begs her with his eyes*
Al: *supports him and sighs* come on or she'll be married
Michael: *leans against her*
Thank you..
*walk/hop/runs with her as support*
Al: come on, not far *walks$
Michael: *walks with her, managing to get his breathing back in order*
*blinks the black spots away*
Wait what do I do when I get there??
Al: say you object? Sweep her off her feet? I dunno, never got married
Michael: Somehow I think sweeping her off her feet isn't an option.
*they crest the hill, the church is down the other side*
Let's go!
Al: ugh.. You're a pain
Michael: No I'm in pain.
*starts stumbling down the hill with Al*
*winces at the movement*
Al; *tries to support him*
Michael: *leans heavily against her*
Thank you..
Al: don't thank me *supoorts him and wakks*
Michael: Okay then.
*eventually they'll reach the bottom of the hill*
*stops leaning on her, he needs to seem strong*
*stands straight, holding his ribs gently*
Okay so just walk in and shout objection..?
Al: yes
Michael: Right
*walks up to the doors nervously*
*hugging himself*
*blinks, looking at the items on the steps*
What the..?
*future Alys has left a backing track and stereo*
Michael: *picks up the backing track, looking at it in confusion*
*opens the case it's in, a piece of paper with lyrics written on is inside*
*looks down at the stereo then at the door*
*grabs the paper, reading it, memorising it quickly, vaguely recognising the original song*
*theres a small microphone connected to the stereo*
*puts the disk in, pressing play*
*flinches as LOUD MUSIC begins the blare*
Al: what the?
*everryone inside pauses and turns to the door*
Michael: *waits until it's just about at the part he's meant to sing and shoulders open the door, nervously*
*his singing voice is actually quite decent, although he does sound a bit nervous*
*the microphone is one of those weird wireless ones*
I'm so rushed off my feet,
Looking for my Alys,
So much I need to say...
I’m sorry that its on her wedding day.
Coz she's so right for me,
But Flauros disagrees,
He wanted to kill me,
Coz I never could commit you see.
Alys: *stares*
Al: *rolls eyes *
Flauros: *growls*
Michael: *spots Flauros and looks away quickly*
But she’s mine.
I'll be glad I've crashed the wedding.
It's better than regretting.
I could have been a loser kid,
And ran away and hid
But that's the same thing that I always did.
Coz true love lasts forever,
So let's both get together,
As if he never met her..
So looking back,
I'll be glad I crashed the wedding.
*moves very slightly up the aisle, instead of looming in the doorway*
Alys: m m m.. *rubs her eyes*
Archer: look who decides to show up
Michael: *glares at Archer*
*he doesn't sound as nervous*
Now furries spread the word!
Grace might cry once she's heard..
I'll steal my girl away,
From everybody gathered here today.
*his strides become more purposeful, challenging Archer*
And, just in time.
Archer: *steps forwards, in front of Alys*
Michael: *narrows his eyes, feeling a slight flare of possessive anger towards Archer*
I'll be glad I've crashed the wedding.
It's better than regretting.
I could have been a loser kid
And ran away and hid
But it always hurt her when I did.
Coz true love lasts forever,
So let's both get together,
As if he never met her..
So looking back,
I'll be glad I crashed the wedding.
Flauros: *strides towards michael* what the hell are you doing?!
Michael: *backs away from Flauros slightly*
Don't waste time being,
Mad at me for taking her away, coz,
Anyway she didn’t want to stay..
*looks at Alys over Archer's shoulder*
So Alys listen when I say.
Alys: *just stares*
Michael: Be glad I've crashed the wedding,
Its better than regretting...
The ring you got was lame,
You shouldn't take the pain,
I really hope you feel the same..
Coz true love lasts forever,
So can we get together?
If not I'll try forget ya,
And stay away..
*swallows, his voice getting quieter*
Be glad I've crashed the wedding,
It's better than regretting...
The ring you got was lame,
You shouldn't take the pain,
I really hope you feel the same..
Coz true love lasts forever,
So can we get together?
If not I'll try forget ya,
And stay away..
Please be glad I crashed the wedding...
*just locks eyes with her, hopeful*
Alys: I I I..
Flauros: how dare you?! *growls* deciding to turn up today! You've been gone for months! Get lost!
Michael: No.. I swear it's only been two days for me, I got kidnapped by a time traveler!
*that'll probably sound like a lie*
Alys.. I'm sorry for everything I've done.. Please..
*steps closer, ignoring Archer*
Alys: *steps forward, unsure*
Archer: *possessivly grabs Alys by the waist* you missed out, she's mine now
Michael: *growls*
Get your raping paws OFF of her.
Archer: *growls* what did you say?
Flauros: *grabs Michael up by his shirt and starts pushing him to the door*
Alys: s stop!
Michael: Sorry about this
*smashes his fist into Flauros' face*
*hisses when the movement sets his side alight but ignores it*
*he is NOT leaving without at least fighting for Alys*
Tresha: *stands up, holding Charlotte*
Michael! Leave in peace..
Alys: t this isn't h happening *pulls her hair*
Archer: ignore him honey *caresses her face*
Alys: D d don't honey m me *pushes him away*
Michael: *snarls, struggling and kicking Flauros*
*crying out in pain at the movement*
GET OFF ME FLAUROS
Alys: F Flauros ! *shouts* s stop!
Michael; *looks at Flauros expectantly*
Flauros: he can't just waltz in here and take you, look how many times he's hurt you
Alys: I I know.. *looks down*
Michael: *glares at Flauros*
Put me down.
*his side is killing him and his ear is still bleeding*
Flauros: *puts him down* get out
Michael: No. Not until Alys answers at least..
Alys: y you'll l leave again..
Michael: I won't. Alys I've been.. Horrible.. But please, give me other chance..
*swallows, watching her*
Flauros: *pushes Michael back* leave!
Archer: enough! You can't do this on her wedding day! She's mine!
Alys: E E EVERYONE STOP!
Al: such a freaking drama! I'm off
Michael: *looks at Al*
*sighs, hanging his head*
Alys.. Please, give me a straight answer.. Do you want me to stay or to go..?
Flauros: *beforw she answers he violently shoves Michael towards the door*
Michael: *cries out, clutching his ribs*
*hisses*
Let. Her. Answer!
*shoves Flauros back, growling*
Alys: *shakes* I l loved you Michael..
Michael: Loved..? So you don't anymore..?
Alys: *to archer* I t tried to love you.. Y you're the f father to my d daughter .. *cries* b but I n never truly s stopped loving m Michael
Archer: you know he won't treat you right!
Michael: *steps forwards, looking over Flauros' shoulder*
I will Archer.. And if I can prove it to you, tell me how to.
Archer: you can't prove it til I see it
Alys: *looks at michael* I I've missed y you..
Michael: then how do I make you see it Archer?
*looks at Alys*
I swear I tried to get back to the right date.. Al went wrong somewhere..
Alys; I s see.. W will you stay?
Michael: I.. I will.
*smiles gently*
I.. Won't lie, I love being in the woods and surviving on the land but.. But surviving on my own?
*shakes his head*
That isn't living..
Alys: m Michael.. *steps closer to him*
Michael: *looks at Flauros, carefully stepping around him*
I know I'm an idiot.. But please?
Archer: *steps between them* marry her then *crosses his arms* prove that you will commit
Michael: *stares at Archer, mouth open slightly in shock*
M-marry her?
Archer: well we are all here and this will prove you'll commit, if you don't marry her I will
Michael: *feels his chest tighten*
I-I..
*looks around at everyone nervously, hugging his ribs*
*looks at Alys*
Yes..
Alys: y you will? *cant help but smile a little*
Michael: *nods nervously*
I'm not letting him force you to marry him..
*whispers*
You aren't his..
*louder*
And you aren't mine. You're your own person and.. And I won't marry you unless you want it too..
Alys: I w want to marry you
Michael: *nods*
*looks at Archer*
I think you ought to move away from the alter..
Archer: *moves away, speechless*
Alys: *looks at michael*
Michael: *is kinda very bright red*
*stands at the alter, looking at the official person*
Um.. Can we maybe skip to the important part..?
*I meant the vows xD*
(I don't know the vows xD )
*you can write your own vows!*
*OR GOOGLE CORPSE BRIDE VOWS*
(I'm no good at writing romantic stuff
One minute)
*THATS FINE CORPSE BRIDE VOWS ARE SO CUTE*
Vicar: of course
Alys, repeat after me
'With this hand, I'll lift your sorrows'
Alys; *turns to michael* with this h hand I I'll lift your s sorrows
Vicar: 'your cup will never empty, for I will be your wine'
Alys: your c cup will never empty for I will b be y your wine
Vicar: 'with this candle, I will light your way in darkness'
Alys: w with this candle I w will light y your way in darkness
Vicar: 'with this ring I ask you to be mine'
Alys: *takes the ring from flora* w with this ring I a ask you to be m mine *holds Michaels hand and puts the ring onto his ring finger*
Michael: *blushes, looking down at the ring*
Um.. can I say my own vows..?
Vicar: of course
Michael: Thank you..
*looks at Alys, rubbing the back of his head*
Well.. Where do I start..? I.. Haven't been the best to you. Um. Flauros and Archer are probably right to want to keep me away from you. So.. So my vow is to stay by your side, and to find my way home if ever I stray.. I'll respect your wishes and if you ask me to do something I promise I'll try to do it..
*looks around for whoever has the ring*
Flora: *hands him the ring*
Michael: Thank you.
*looks back at Alys*
You aren't Archers..
*takes Alys' hand, sliding the engagement ring off her finger, looking down at it in his hand*
And this ring doesn't signify that you're mine. It never will, because you aren't. So may this ring be a symbol of my promises and my vows.. As long as you wear it, I'll try and stick by my vows..
*gently slides the wedding band onto her finger, handing Flora the old engagement ring*
I'll try and stick by you, and I'll let you make your own choices..
Alys: m Michael..
Vicar: now by the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride
Michael: *looks at the vicar, his heart thumping a mile a minute*
*looks at Alys - he's never kissed anyone before*
*he doesn't really know how to, other than awkwardly having your lips pressed against another persons*
*shuffles forwards awkwardly, painfully awkwardly*
*swallows, nervous*
Alys: *leans in and kisses him softly*
Michael: *INTERNALLY PANICS BECAUSE HE WAS NOT READY FOR THIS*
*HOW DO YOU KISS SOMEONE?!*
*WHAT DO YOU DO?!*
*HER LIPS ARE ALL SOFT AND FLUFFY*
*ITS KIND OF TICKLISH*
*AND WARM*
*despite his internal panic his body is reacting, kissing her back*
*whimpers quietly, blinking, unaware that he had closed his eyes*
*looks down at her nervously, waiting for some sign of approval*
Alys: *smiles*
Michael: *smiles back awkwardly, rubbing the back of his neck*
*is bright red*
Uhm what do we do now?
Alys: *smiles and shrugs*
Flauros: *cracks his knuckles€ you better not let her down again
Michael: *looks at Flauros fearfully*
I won't.. Hey there's someone I want you to meet.
*takes Alys' hand, walking back down the aisle with her, looking for Al*
Tresha: *smiles, slipping a hand around Flauros' arm*
Good boy.
*kisses his cheek, holding Charlotte in one arm*
Al: *is waiting outside, leaning against the wall*
Flauros: *kisses her on the head* let's hope he will keep to his vows
Michael: *leads Alys outside*
Alys, meet Al. The woman who held me at knife point, kidnapped me, nearly sold me as a slave, beat me up, chased me round a building, broke my rib, almost cut off me ear and helped me get back here.
Tresha: if he does you'll be there to teach him
Alys: u um.. H hello..
Al: hey *holds out her hand*
*alys takes her hand*
*they both feel an electric shock and then their bodies have switched*
Alys: w what? *looks at al* t that's me!
Al: you're me!
Michael: huh?
*looks at the furries who hand he's holding, Al*
Oh. Yeah. You look pretty similar. It's.. A bit unnerving sometimes.
Al: get off me! *pushes him off*
Alys: I I'm h human.. *frowns* I d don't feel my p power
Michael: *stumbles back, staring, confused*
*looks between the two*
Alys: I I'm Alys..
Michael: what?? But.. But..
*looks back and forth between the two*
But that isn't possible!
Al: well it happened now I'm a freaking fox!
Michael: *looks at Al*
..
*looks at Alys*
*is kinda light headed*
Alys: y you don't look w well..
Michael: I..
*blinks*
*looks at Alys*
Alys: *steps towards him*
Michael: You.. You're human..?
Alys: I a am now...
Michael: *shakily cups her face, staring*
*smiles, looking almost relieved*
You're human..
*kisses her nervously and gently*
*which is probably insanely weird for Al*
Alys: *kisses back*
Michael: *pulls back, looking at her*
Alys: *smiles*
Al: please don't kiss my body in front of me *turns arounf*
Michael: *smiles back and then looks at Al*
Oh.. Sorry..
Al: *turns around*
Alys: m Michael.. You need t to be healed
Michael: We.. Should probably try and fix this first..?
Alys: w what if we cant
Michael: try shaking hands again..?
Alys: *holds out her hand*
Al: *takes her hand*
*they switch*
*they will switch whenever they touch*
Michael: Well..?
Alys: I'm back..
Michael: *looks at the fox one*
Okay.. So shaking hands makes you switch..
Al: looks like it
Michael: so just.. Don't shake hands, right?
Alys: *nods*
Michael: Okay, good
*smiles hesitantly*
Then, um, let's get back..?
Alys: um.. Y you know what happens a after a wedding right?
Michael: No..?
Alys: t there's a honey moon
Michael: what's that?
Alys: l like a holiday.. Just us two
Michael: That sounds cool! I've never really been on holiday before. They're meant to be relaxing right?
Alys: *nods*
Michael: Cool. What do you do on holidays?
Alys: anything.. R relax or g go sightseeing
Michael: Okay. That sounds alright.
Al: and you shag a lot
Michael: WHAT?!
*stares at Al*
Alys: A al!
