LSODM Paperback

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, straight from the pen of Mr Tom Percival, the paperback cover for Last Stand of Dead Men...


Sooo utterly cool... and wait till you see the BACK cover... Wait till you see the cover for the Maleficent Seven paperback — a thing of BEAUTY, so it is...

Oh we spoil you with artwork, we surely do...

Hiii

I'm good, thanks *hugs everyone*

Alex Stone said...

*Wishes he had some tea irl*
Hello Mara!
(RP)
*Sees the flames and dives on top of Saph, ignoring the tentacles slamming into his face* *Watches the gigantic creature fall to its knees, causing a shockwave that makes the ground vibrate as the tentacles claw at the throat*
*Ducks his head as the creature explodes with a final, searing blast of heat that ripples outwards, scorching his hair and searing his skin*
*Yells out reflexively* Sapphire!

Alex Stone said...

*raises glass to the ded*

The Grave of a Coward said...

I haven't been sleeping well lately.
*sits on the curb*
Nightmares. You know how it is, I'm sure.
*sips tea*

Noelle said...

*wipes her eyes, taking the crutches and limping from the side room*

right. Of course. Everyone left...

The Grave of a Coward said...

(*raises teacup to Alex*
Cheers, my good man!)

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

Anni; Me neither. Hence the fact it's 4:05 in the morning and Alex and I are still awake.
*Raises glass to the ded*
Alex; That was all very impressive and chivalrous. (I hope you realise that I can't do anything. I'm unconscious. Unconscious people don't do much.

Sir said...

Uhm. Well, yes. However , I have been avoiding sleep, lately.



An excellent dedication, I must say.

Alex Stone said...

Cheers, Annika.
Saph; Yep. I did realise that.

The Grave of a Coward said...

I wish I could avoid sleep. At my age, that's not really an option.
*sips tea*
Thanks again, for the tea. You're always so nice to me.
*sighs*
. . .
I'm sick of it. Nightmares, I mean. Magic. Mortals and sorcerers and monsters.
Sick of it.
Magic never did a thing for me that left me anything but miserable.
*sips tea*

Noelle said...

*eases herself into a Sitting position*

Never again

Sir said...

An interesting viewpoint, Doctor.

Alex Stone said...

*The sea spray licks the top of the cliff, but all else is still*
*Groans and rolls off Saph, lying on his back and staring at the sky, gathering his strength*
*Sits up and crawls painfully over to her*
Oh, Fire... *Sees how bad the damage really is* *Pulls out an emergency kit* *Wipes the cuts with antiseptic and dabs carefully at the gash across her face* *Bandages it as best as he can and searches for any broken bones*
*Discovers a probably sprained wrist and a few broken ribs*
*Leans backwards and sighs* I don't have the strength or stamina to carry her back. *Pulls out phone, but can't think of who to call*

Noelle said...

*lifts her leg, biting her wrist*
Shitshitshit I fucked up oh gods oh gods *keeps cursing, looking at the bit of bone protruding from her skin*

Noelle said...

((I ship it))

Alex Stone said...

Anni, how old are you?

Alex Stone said...

Adra; ... That sounds painful.
And what are you shipping?

The Grave of a Coward said...

(I am 15, Alex. Why?)

The Grave of a Coward said...

(And Adra ships everything. Don't mind her. *laughs*)

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

*Eyes widen* ADRA. NO.

The Grave of a Coward said...

(Oh, it occurs to me you might have been asking for Doctor Precocious's age. She is 512.)

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

Anni; Adra doesn't ship half as much as I do :P
Hi again Fabi!

The Grave of a Coward said...

Interesting . . . heh.
*sips tea wearily*
Have you ever wished you were one of them?
The Mortals, I mean.

Noelle said...

((Fabi! So I can text youuuusua))

((I'm the queen of ships, mon. Shyuddup))

*grabs a bottle* Oh gods this is going to hurt

Alex Stone said...

Anni; I couldn't decide from your comments whether you seemed older or younger than me. Now I realise we're exactly the same.
Saph; What?

The Grave of a Coward said...

(Isn't it funny how that sometimes happens?)

Sir said...

Doctor, I...

You seem to forget that you were mortal once. Many sorcerers seem to forget that...

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

Alex; Your naivety is endearing.
Anni; I used to. Then I went to another dimension where I actually am mortal.
I prefer being me.

Maralie Lily Charm said...

I ship Salex

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

((I'll have to look it up... I haven't had my current phone long, and I've never called myself, so I don't have it memorized...))

#ChaseForBook9

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

*Shivers* *hears an echo in her head* You were human once too.
Shuddup.
Alex, are you going to wake me up or anything?

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

Mara;...
That's a really weird ship name XD

The Grave of a Coward said...

*laughs loudly and suddenly*
HA! Yes, I was a Mortal once, I suppose. You're right about that. Which would be lovely, if I could remember it. If I could remember- remember- GAH!
*buries face in hands*
*begins to tremble*
You don't know what it's like in my head . . . I've forgotten things . . . important things . . . and I can't recall them but I know they're gone . . . and it . . . it . . . is MAGIC!
*hurls teacup across the street*
*it shatters on the concrete*
Gah!
*buries her hands in her hair*

Alex Stone said...

Sal-? *Chokes on his glass of water*
That's somehow disturbing, hilarious and suddenly obvious all at the same time.

The Grave of a Coward said...

(Salex sounds like some sort of postal service . . . or a big-name corporation . . .)

The Grave of a Coward said...

(Or a Pokemon. Salex also sounds like a Pokemon.)

Maralie Lily Charm said...

Saph - hey it's better than Aleph

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

((Oh dear... Um, I don't think Mom knows how to turn off the wifi, and Dad's not here, but the backup thing will run out eventually.))

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

You're welcome :3

I ship it too))

*carefully drinks the foul drink, grabbing onto the bars, waiting for the pain to hit*

Maralie Lily Charm said...

Alex Stone said...

*Helplessly sorts through the rest of the kit* *Mixes up the herbs he knows about*
Now, all she needs to do is eat this.
*Looks at Saph*
That might be a problem.
*Slowly gets to his feet, every muscle in his body aching* *Digs out a cup from the first aid kit and uses it to splash water on Saph's face, because he doesn't know what else to do*

Sir said...

Erm...

*awkwardly pats the Doctor on the back*

There, there now. The ability to forget is a merciful one...

The Grave of a Coward said...

*calms down*
It's a gift I didn't want and didn't ask for.

*looks mournfully at the shattered teacup*
I- I'm sorry about your teacup.

*looks down at herself*
Sweet justice, I'm a wreck . . .

Noelle said...

*lurches forward, knocking a glass off the table, crashing*

Something... Something's isn't-
*cries put, her heart and lungs burning

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

A Pokémon?!
I'm laughing so hard right now...
*Glares at Alex* Splashing my face with water? If we were lost in the wild, with no way home, and I was unconscious, is that what you would do?

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse...


#ChaseForBook9

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

Adra?

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

Gtg.... Mom's calling Dad and asking for directions and Internet will be off soon.

#ChaseForBook9

Sir said...

The teacup is replaceable, Doctor.

And believe me when I say, there are some things better left forgotten.

The Grave of a Coward said...

*bows head*




I hope you're right.

Noelle said...

Saph... Saph... *coughs, hitting the ground*

Shit... I think there was poison in that bloody thing

Sir said...

*sighs*

Doctor, there is little use in dwelling upon such issues. Perhaps you know somewhere that would distract you from your predicament?

Alex Stone said...

Adra? Did you drink poison?
Saph, if we were in the wild I would turn into Bear Grills and be all heroic and macho.

The Grave of a Coward said...

Distract me from my own mind?
I believe that's called a being in a coma.
And I certainly do not want to relive 1712-1715.

Noelle said...

YES OR ELSE MY FUCKING ANKLE WOULD BE HEALED

Maralie Lily Charm said...

Bye Fabibibibibubbles *hugs*

Sir said...

Doctor, I meant more along the lines of an enjoyable activity that preoccupies yourself.

Noelle said...

((Bye Fabrooo! *hugs*))

Sir said...

Good bye, Ms. Fabienne.

Noelle said...

*wheezes* Oh gods.... *hobbles along towards her cabinet* hell..

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

Adra; Crap. I really want to help you, but I'm half-dead on a clifftop miles away...

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

Stupid internet!!! It took me almost ten minutes to post one comment! *fumes*

The Grave of a Coward said...

Thank you for the offer, Sir . . .
*stands up*
But I have nothing to do. All of my friends are off having grand adventures, and I'm . . .
Well . . .
In Blogland.

. . .
If it's not too impolite . . .
*hugs Sir*
Thanks for the tea and sympathy.

*walks away*
*quietly*
*head down*

(I am sorry, but I'm going to have to go in five minutes . . .)

Maralie Lily Charm said...

Uhm, can I join in?

Idk how tbh bc Mara is currently having a breakdown and Harry's just being ufh so yeah

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

-----------
*Saph starts coughing weakly, rolling onto her side with a cry of pain and spasming*

Sir said...

...
*slowly sighs*

Well, blast. I suppose I'll go bowling by myself, then.

*walks off, frowning*

The Grave of a Coward said...

(Aw, sorry Sir. I'll be back after lunch though, if you'll still be around.)

Noelle said...

It's fine... I-

*collapses, convulsing*

Alex Stone said...

I have just under an hour and a half.
Okay, Annika. And I probably won't see you for a long time, so I just want to say now that it was really nice to meet you. You're interesting, smart, compassionate, friendly and a great writer.

Noelle said...

((In whatever way you want Mara))

*feels herself slowly being pulled outside by something*

Maralie Lily Charm said...

Nvm, I gtg... Sorry.

I think I'll be back in a few hours. Idk.

*hugs everyone*

Noelle said...

((Bye Mara! *hugs*))

*feels her limbs freeze up a bit, being dragged through the snow by the figure*

Sir said...

In any case, good bye Ms. Annika. Enjoy your lunch.

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

Goodbye Mara and Anni! *hugs*
*Hugs Alex too*
*Would hug Adra, but it probably wouldn't make things any better*

Noelle said...

*is tossed to the ground and catches a glimpse of who it is as she pins her to the ground, pointing a gun between Adra's eyes*
*tries to speak*
*can't*

Alex Stone said...

Oh, thank God! *Gives Saph healing cream to help her ribs* Here. Eat these *pushes a pile of herbs at her*. They'll make you feel better. *Fishes out a bottle of water as well*

Alex Stone said...

*Is watching Adra's roleplay closely, because it looks interesting*

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

Don't die, Adra...

Noelle said...

((Bye Anni!))

Tzipora: Adra. You never contacted me.

They told me some thing a about you, your family. *growls, digging the barrel into Adra's forehead* Some things I don't particarly like.

Adra: *gods*

Maralie Lily Charm said...

Wait, never mind. I'm allowed stay.

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

*Coughs and coughs, struggling with all her willpower to keep her eyes open* *Makes a face at and swallows the herbs* *Manages a few mouthfuls of water before the pain in her ribs gets too much*

Alex Stone said...

Then welcome back, Mara.

Noelle said...

((YAY MARA!! *cuddles*))

Tzipora: Adra... You've been called back home.

Adra: *eyes widen*

Tzipora: *frowns* I don't like it either. But you know how it works *picks her up* I'm sorry, Adri

Alex Stone said...

*Laughs* the song that just came on my Ipod...
Come daylight,
I'll have to go,
But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close.
Come daylight,
I'll be on my own,
But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close.

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

Mars Bar! *parties*
Adra; Ooh...

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

*Pokes Alex* No. You're not going anywhere. I'M KIDNAPPING YOU.

Alex Stone said...

I don't think it's kidnapping if the victim goes willingly.

Noelle said...

*Tzipora touches the ground with a single hand and a portal opens- one without a circle*

Adra: *eyes furrow, confused*

Tzipora: *throws Adri through first*

Adra: *lands in the snow on the other side, jostling her ankle* *groans*

Tzipora: *jumps after*

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

*Grins* True enough.
-------------------------
*Gingerly rubs the cream on her torso, hissing*
That hurts so much...
*Looks up at Alex* I feel better now though. Thank you.

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

Aaaadraaaaa

Noelle said...

Tzipora: *puta a cloth over Adri's mouth*

Adra: *after a few moments* *body falls limp*

*a male figure jumps from the tree and lifts her up, and the two walk*

Alex Stone said...

Mara? Are you still here? I never said a proper goodbye to you.
(RP)
Do you think you can walk?

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Im back! Zaffy back home now :)

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

*Rolls eyes* No, Alex, I can't walk. But I can last until dawn. *yawns* I suppose we just have to wait here until then.

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

Hi Zaf!

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Hi hmm do I jump in? *confused* Maybe not

The Grave of a Coward said...

*exits a small cafe*
Ah, that was a good lunch . . .
*looks around*
Hullo?
Is anyone here?
Is Sir still around? I feel bad for leaving him so suddenly.

Maralie Lily Charm said...

Sorry, I'm here.

*hugs Alex*

Noelle said...

*wakes up a whole later, in the middle of a rink* *her ankle feels better and is bandaged*

*recognizes the rink*

Oh shit..

Noelle said...

((Mara I have missed that picture!!!))

Sir said...

Greetings, Ms. Kerias.

Welcome back, Ms. Barnosky.

Maralie Lily Charm said...

JUBI *screams* *tackles*

I HAVEN'T REALLY TALKED TO YOU IN AGES

The Grave of a Coward said...

*strolls down the street*
*looking at the people passing by*

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

*sees a newspaper stand*
*purchases a paper*
Headline: WE ARE ALL SCREWED!
*reads it as she walks down the sidewalk*

Noelle said...

((Yeah! It's lovely!
Hi Jubi-boo!))

*sits up a little*

*a voice calls out* Mrs. Dark...

Adra: Ms.

HAAII!!!!

Alex Stone said...

Hello Mara, Jubi, Zaf, Sir!
(RP)
Waiting for the dawn? There's something poetic about that. (Especially seeing as that's what we're doing irl)

Noelle said...

((Hi Jubab *cuddles*))

Sir said...

Greetings, Ms. Glee.

The Grave of a Coward said...

*the sun is glowing brightly*

*reaches for her Ray-Bans*
*remembers they were stolen*
*angrily crumples up the newspaper and tosses it into a dustbin*
*because even mentally-unstable monster hunters shouldn't litter*

*her phone buzzes in her pocket*
*the ring tone is the X-Files theme song*

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

JUBAB *TACKLEGLOMPS*
Welcome back everyone who came back :D

Maralie Lily Charm said...

Jubi - How are yoooouuuu?:)

Hey Anni and Saph *hugs*

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

Alex; I guess, yeah :J

ALEX!!!!!! SIR!!!!!! ANNIKA!!!!! SAPPHY!!!!! *SUPERMEGATACKLEHUGSOFDOOM*



HAAIIIIIII!!!!

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

Mara! :D

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

*Dies because the hug is too super and mega and doomy*

The Grave of a Coward said...

*flips open phone*
Hullo?

*a burst of static*
*crackling and hissing*
Distorted Voice: I KNOW YOUR SECRET.

Well, you know rather more than I do, then.

Voice: COME TO THE ABANDONED FRO-YO PLACE OUTSIDE OF TOWN.

I'd really rather not. I don't know who you are, and I don't like fro-yo.

Voice: I AM WATCHING YOU.

As well you should. I look fabulous today.

Voice: PRECOCIOUS-

Goodbye.
*hangs up*
Gosh, kids these days . . .

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

OH NO! *stares down at Saph in horror*

I'VE KILLED HER!

WHO KNOWS CPR?!?!

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

*runs in with a a dynamite stick laughing* Oooh

Noelle said...

*a tall man walks into the light*

Adra: why am I here? Who are you?

Figure: Garret. Garret Finne. Funny how you don't recognise me... I mean, you are an Empress.

Adra: *crosses her arms* What does that title have anything to do with this.

Garret: this is your pen, is it not?

Adra: I am not an animal. I don't live in a cage.

Garret: ah, but you did. And that is what I am concerned of.

Adra:... Go on

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

WAIT!

I DO!
*starts doing those weird chest compression-y things on Saph*

Noelle said...

((ONG Anni))

The Grave of a Coward said...

*phone rings again*
*flips it open*
See here, I'm not very amused by this.

Oscar: Well, I'm not amused by this either!

What?

Oscar: What?

Oscar, is that you?

Oscar: Of course it's me, who else would it be?

No, I mean, was that you? Who called before?

Oscar: Someone called you before?

Yeah.

Oscar: That doesn't make any sense. You have no friends.

I do too have friends!

Oscar: Be that as it may, I need you to pay attention to me. I don't have much time.

I'm actually looking for someone right now-

Oscar: Shut up and listen.

Okay.

Alex Stone said...

Anni; I have to try that sometime...
----------------------
*Wraps one arm around Saph and sits facing the horizon*
*Looks sideways at her battered face* Can you sing something you wrote?

Alex Stone said...

Why are there suddenly so many people?

Maralie Lily Charm said...

*RP*

Niall: *hugs Mara tight* It's okay Mara, shh, I don't know what came over Harry. I didn't know about it, I swear. Neither did Lou, Liam or Zayn.

Mara: *hiccups* It's just.. He... *sobs*

Niall: It's okay, Mara, just let it all out. Sometimes we need a good cry.

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

Because I came.
I'M JUST FABULOUS THAT WAY :3

Oh and I think I accidentally killed Saph...

The Grave of a Coward said...

Oscar: I'm calling from a pay phone-

A payphone?

Oscar: Yes, a payphone.

You mean, a public telephone box? That people use? And touch? Every day?

Oscar: Yes.

. . .

Oscar: . . .

. . . really?

Oscar: *sounds distraught* I don't have much choice, alright? I'm stranded outside of a restaurant in the middle of nowhere. There was this kid, this kid with a red balloon, and-

Red balloon?

Oscar: Yeah . . .

*remembers the events of Halloween night*
Oh . . . oh dear . . .
Oscar . . .
This restaurant . . .
It doesn't happen to be a fro-yo place, is it?

Oscar: It is, actually. Why?

*hangs up the phone*
Oh dear . . .
Oh, this is not good at all . . .

Sir said...

*exits the bowling alley*

Honestly, being thrown out for CHEATING... That bowling ball was possessed, and he KNEW it!

Noelle said...

Garret: You were once revered here. And thus, you're being assigned something. The council sent me. And- they need you to dispose of someone.

Adra: who?

Garret: The bartender. You need to get rid of him.

Adra: No.

Garret: You must, Empress.

Adra: No I don't. I won't kill him.

Garret: You don't have a choice, I'm afraid. *gestures toward the symbol etched into her arm* You have to follow orders.
Good luck. If you don't get it done by the end of the week, we kill both of you. And possibly some friends.
Goodbye.
*flicka his hand and Adra finds herself next to Sir*

SIR!

Noelle said...

Saalex :3

The Grave of a Coward said...

*is torn for a moment*
*part of her wants to stay and look for Sir*
*the other part of her wants to go rescue Oscar*
*from the dangerous fro-yo place*
Oh . . . oh . . .
*looks from the city*
*to the wilderness*
*to the city*
*to the wilderness*










*her eyes narrow*
*she pulls out the keys to her van*
FRO-YO.

Sir said...

*starts*

By the st- Adrasdos, do not do that!

The Grave of a Coward said...

*gasps*
*as she catches sight of Sir*

Sir! There you are!
I'm sorry I couldn't go bowling.
But . . .

*turns pink*

Do you like frozen yogurt?

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

Jubab; I SURVIVED! But I think my internet is dying instead.
*pats Sir on the back comfortingly* It's okay. You can have another game later.
Alex; No.

Sir said...

*turns to the Doctor*

I, er, am unfamiliar with the dish you reference. Why do you ask?

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

*Gives Adra an evil glare*

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

*stares at Saph in disbelief*
I DID IT!!!
I DID IT!!!!!
I KNEW THOSE BABYSITTER'S TRAINING COURSES WOULD PAY OFF!!!
I KNEW THEY WEREN'T ALL FOR NOTHING!!!
I DID IT! WHOO!!

The Grave of a Coward said...

Well, it just so happens that I've recently received a disturbing call from a disturbing person asking me to meet him at a disturbing fro-yo place where Oscar is apparently being detained . . .
And there's the promise of a lot of bloodshed. And yogurt.
*clicks the key fob*
*her black van careens around the corner and parks*
*neatly*
*beside the curb*
I'm going out there to check it out. Would you and/or Adra like to come?
*looks excited*

Noelle said...

I didn't mean to! I was thrown here!

The Grave of a Coward said...

(Jubilance, you really did pick your name well.)

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

*looks up* FRO-YO?!
WHERE'S THE FRO-YO?
I LIKE FRO-YO :3

Alex Stone said...

Adra; ... That still disturbs me.
Please, Saph? I have about half an hour. That's it. *Does the puppy eyes*

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

(*Grins* Why THANK YOU!)

Sir said...

Mr. Neurotic is in trouble?

*looks to Ms. Dark*

Well. I suppose you have piqued my curiosity.

*steps towards the van, and looks again at Ms. Dark*

Noelle said...

I'm good. *shakily gets to her feet* *shakes her head, reflecting on what happened*

Yeah, I'm good

The Grave of a Coward said...

*slides into the driver's seat*
Sir, you get to ride shotgun. Adra, you'll have to sit in the back, though I assure you the chairs are comfortable and bolted down.

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

Jubi; *Laughs* Yes, they did. Although you weren't exactly baby-sitting me at the time...
I don't mind Fro-Yo. (Agrees with Annika about Jubi's name)
Alex; *Mutters something under her breath about you being impossible* Fine. Give me two minutes.

Alex Stone said...

Saph; YES.

The Grave of a Coward said...

*phone buzzes*
Uh . . . a moment, please . . .
*flips it open*
Hullo?

Voice: I THOUGHT YOU WOULD COME ALONE.

*glances at her companions*
You never specified.

Voice: I HAVEN'T GIVEN UP ON YOU.

I'm coming to the fro-yo place, what else do you-

Voice: AFTER ALL THE TROUBLE I WENT THROUGH TO TELL YOU,
AND NOW YOU'VE FORGOTTEN.

What-

Voice: EVERY SECOND YOU DELAY BRINGS HIM A LITTLE CLOSER TO DEATH.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO LOSE ANOTHER ONE, PRECOCIOUS?

*hangs up*
*looks shaken*
We . . . we should go . . .

Noelle said...

I do hope so... *sits in a seat, putting her cane under her* *puts the seatbelt on*

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

*waves hand* The concept of CPR still remains, never the less...



CAN YOU GUYS BRING ME BACK SOME FRO-YO?

Sir said...

... Quite.

*opens the door, and awkwardly slides into the shotgun seat*
*closes the door behind him*

Noelle said...

We got chu, Jubi

Noelle said...

*folds her hands in her lap and stares out the window, feeling disturbed by what happened* *does her best to push it away*

Ms. Dark, may I ask why you appeared from thin air...?

The Grave of a Coward said...

*starts the van*
*which begins shooting down the road*

The fro-yo place isn't far . . . it's just outside of town . . .
*swallows grimly*
*turns on the radio*
*it's Panic! At The Disco*
*switches it off with an apologetic look at her passengers*

*the van drives on*
*and on*
*and on*

YAAAY!!!


Just... make sure it's not chocolate or anything...
AND CAN YOU PUT GUMMY BEARS ON IT? OR GUMMY WORMS... IT DOESN'T MATTER...

OH OH! AND THE OREO CRUMB THINGIES!

AND IF THEY HAVE ANY MARASCHINO CHERRIES... THOSE ARE GOOD TOO!


xP

WHOO!

The Grave of a Coward said...

*in the distance a building can be seen*
*it is white*
*and round*
*and shaped like fro-yo*
*with a giant sign on top that says fro-yo*
*but it is gray and old and abandoned*
*like Tim Burton's fro-yo restaurant*

*swallows grimly*
There it is.

*dark figures flicker in the windows*
*they are waiting*
*waiting for orders*

Sir said...

... Thrown back? By...

Noelle said...

*walks behind her like a shadow*

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Hmm if I RPed some Zavel would people be objected?

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

I made me hungry too..

WHICH IS WHY I'M GETTING FRO-YO! :D

The Grave of a Coward said...

*the van slowly grinds to a halt*

*gets out*
*quietly*
*whispers* I don't know what to do now . . .
I suppose I should go in . . .
Cover me.
*slowly begins to approach the fro-yo spot*
*and doesn't notice the eyes watching her from the window*












*inside*
*a little girl with a red balloon sits at the counter*
*eating bloody fro-yo*
X: Where is she?

Sir said...

*gets the door open, and stretches slightly*

No offense, Doctor, but I am quite glad that we are now out of your automobile.

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

Zaf; Personally, I wouldn't mind so long as you were careful about spoilers.

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

All though I wouldn't ACTUALLY be able to eat it...

Dammit

The Grave of a Coward said...

(Zafira, let it be know that Precocious and I have always, ALWAYS, stood with Erskine Ravel.
*salutes*)

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

O.O

WHAT KIND OF MESSED UP, TWISTED FRO-YO PLACE IS THIS?!

Mary Contrary said...

I'm sorry, It just took me 20 minutes to work that out. ._.

The Grave of a Coward said...

That's okay, Sir, it's not the best van in the world. But it gets from A to B . . .
*approaches fro-yo place*
*reaches out hand*
*pushes open the door*

X: *smiles*
*and giggles*
Finally.
*snaps fingers*
Boys?
Go get the other two.

*two men*
*yes, you could call them men, I suppose*
*both wearing dark suits*
*smile*
*and leap impossibly high and impossible far*
*leaping at Adra and Sir*

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

Ravel was the first fictional character I ever had a crush on.
Followed closely by Vex :P

The Grave of a Coward said...

(Yes, fro-yo is frozen yogurt.)

X: *pushes some fro-yo in a bowl towards Precocious*
*smiles*
Snack?
I think a business deal always goes down better with a snack.

(I'm sorry, I'll be right back in a couple minutes-)

Noelle said...

*hisses, pulling out her sword and swinging*

The Grave of a Coward said...

(If you can do the fight without me, I'd be grateful, I'll be right back . . .)

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

((Well it's gonna be pre-Dark Days as Crux is dead))

Sir said...

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

I dedicate this page to all Bloglandians, but especially Alex, because he's leaving in about fifteen minutes. He's awesome and has been so good to me. I owe him everything *hugs* You're awesome. Always remember that.

Star Inkbright said...

@Zaf: Like Saph, I'm fine so long as spoilers are non-existent. :) Should be awesome to read.

Don't bother saying hi, I've been here for hours. Since I last disappeared, in fact, which was hours ago. I just didn't see the point in commenting, as I can't be here because homework, and didn't really have anything to say . . . it's sad, because it's been really exciting today. :( Would've liked to've been here.
