Oooh FUN!



My editor has read the first (rough) draft of Book 9, and he loves it. I'm on the home stretch now — the end is in sight (in more ways than one). Over the next two or three weeks my head is going to be down and I'm going to working hard to fill in those gaps, to link up those scenes, to write those missing chapters. Right now I'm at 100,000 words. The end result will PROBABLY be about 120,000 words — maybe just slightly shorter than KOTW. Of course, in order to finish the book, I'll need to pick a winner of the Who Gets to Die competition we ran ages ago, and then that lucky reader will get to meet their grisly end...

And because I, and therefore WE, are on the home stretch, this blog is going to be choc-a-block with announcements and reveals over the next few weeks. By the end of THIS week, for example, we'll be revealing the cover for the Armageddon-Outta-Here short story collection. Next week, we'll reveal the full, WRAPAROUND cover for the collection (it's awesome). And the week after that? We'll be revealing the title for the ninth, and last, Skulduggery Pleasant book.

Olivia: *comes over to* Momma you promised to teach me about Necromancy.

I did? *opens one eye*

Olivia: Yes!

I'm sorry, Olivia. *sits up* I thought you didn't want to learn.

Olivia: I do want to!

((Hi Adra))

Fine come on.

Olivia: *runs off*

Gasah!!!

Luciana said...

*laughs* It's worse if you read what comes before it, Star. :P

(Also I'm sorry! And... it's not that sad. It gets worse when you know what joesonghamnida means though so??? idk).

*finally moves to the girls eyes*
*those small ocean blue eyes of hers that had haunted him many a night*
*grabs the final needle on his tray*
*looks down at her eyes showing her the needle of dark, swirling fog*
*smiles and lowers the needle bringing it closer and closer to her left eye*
*laughs as she tries to press herself further into the table to escape her fate*
*pushes the needle in slowly and carefully making sure not to pop the eye*
*empties the contents into her eye before yanking out the needle and pulling that lid closed*
*sews that eye shut slowly, savouring every minute*
*turns and injects the other eye with a different needle containing the same contents*
*sews that eyes shut as well before injecting her with a small anesthetic*
*undoes her bonds and dumps her outside 1000 miles away from the clearing*
*smiles and attaches a camera to her clothes before turning and reentering his lab*
*now its just a matter of time...*

Noelle said...

Hello Zafira

Also, I'm not here right now. I just happened to pass through and see James. I thought it was interesting.

And I should go. Goodbye.

Star Inkbright said...

@Mushroom: It IS that sad.
And don't ever apologise for being an awesome writer. :) *hugs*

Aw, crap, I'm crying again now.

((Goodbye Adrasdos Dark))

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

Bye Adra...

Luciana said...

Joesonghamnida means I'm sorry, by the way. In the most sincere, respectful way possible. It's romanized Korean and he's Korean, so... ^_^ But it's like the most sorry anyone can ever be and it carries so much meaning that it's very rarely said. :3

Luciana said...

BYE ADRA! *waves*

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

Olivia: *skips off happily, playing with a rabbit* *goes back inside and watches the gerbil army* Aww I got gerbil babies!

Star Inkbright said...

Mushroom.

You SERIOUSLY need to stop making me cry. D:

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

It's not even horrible in the way Aladra is. It's just sad. Very beautiful and very, very, very sad.

#ChaseForBookNine

??????? ??????? said...

((Hello people. How are we all?))

Luciana said...

I thought it was happier than my HC.


In my head canon, he uses a noose that he took from her earlier on in the story and hangs himself over her grave (which is beneath a weirdly large willow tree) because he can't cope without her. He's already lost too many people. He's already hurting too much. He just never showed it. He needed her to continue living, but when she was gone... he had nothing remaining. He had to be with her - one way or another.

He joined her on the other side.

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

Hello James

Star Inkbright said...

@James: Upset, but in an empathic story way so it's okay. :)

Plus Hunter's halfway to breaking down over yonder so it's cool. :P

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

Mushroom, you really need to stop making me cry.

I haven't come across anything that's made me cry this much in a long time, though. There should be a prize for this.
*rolls around happily whilst still crying*
*because I'm cool enough to do that*

#ChaseForBookNine

??????? ??????? said...

((I'm glad its okay star. And hello Zafira, how are you?))

Star Inkbright said...

I'm glad it's okay too.

Sorry if I'm distant! SCing Aasheea & editing for Grace:3

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

I have a few MC chapters I dug out and laughed. I reread some of them and laugh how I really screwed up my OC. Nic did enjoy it.

Star Inkbright said...

YES IT FUCKING IS THAT SAD FUCKSSAKE!

The things that make me sad the most, though, I think, are the beautiful sad things.
CRAP I'M CRYING /AGAIN/ NOW DAMMIT. :P

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

@Zaf: *nods*

I must not be a very good writer because I don't enjoy torturing characters. :P
Then again, even my sadist friend doesn't like torturing characters, and when she's writing she's just sitting there crying her eyes out whilst typing it because it's so sad so. :P

#ChaseForBookNine

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

Oi! I never dedicated

I dedicate this page to my little gerbils. They're always happy as can be squeaking.

And to Marissa because tonight she's going to prom.

Star Inkbright said...

@Zaf: Yaaaaaaaaaay! :) :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Luciana said...

Aw, Star! *huggles*


You should listen to Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd, Fiction by B2ST (and look at the translation), Wherever You Will Go (acoustic) by The Calling and The Light Behind Your Eyes by My Chemical Romance because they give me feels about this part of the story. ^_^

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

It doesn't bother me totally. Like when Ari asked me to tun Alexis into a doll it doesn't bother me too much, now my characters it annoys. I also wasn't too conerned about Nic torturing me twice in MC, and then later in the roleplay, I only ever asked to not be killed off, simply because Zaf is my OC. Like when I wrote with Ari the chapter Something Sweet as Pain, I actualy was shaken by what Nic did because I never had tortured a character to that extreme, Zaf couldn't even see and even today that still haunts her over a year ago. The nightmares vanished and all but she will have one every few weeks, as a reminder. Then what Alastair did, I would love to revisit when he took me captive in his mind, I know so much more!

Star Inkbright said...

@Mushroom: You linked me to The Light Behind Your Eyes the other day and IF you remember, I spend ages just sitting there crying about it. :P

Oh, dear.
I do cry a lot.
I'd rather not look up those songs just now, though; I'm sad now. D:

:P

#ChaseForBookNine

Luciana said...

I don't care, listen to it whilst thinking of that scene and I can almost guarantee that you will cry. Because I did. :P

Star Inkbright said...

@Zaf: Really?

Ah, you see, I get upset about stuff.

*points to my little crying spree just now*

I'm quite empathic and emotional.

Msd. I probably need to find something to do. :P

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

I can't listen to music whilst reading.
My brain is really one-track.

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

Well, I can do it, but I can't - the writing just doesn't - the pictures don't form in my head, you know?
It's like being told what is happening rather than being there and living it yourself.
I think.
And I wouldn't be able to pay attention to both the writing and the music anyway so yeah.
Reading is a silent activity. *nods*
(Just wrote 'silente' by accident. :P)
I can't even read if the TV's on or anything. -_-

#ChaseForBookNine

Luciana said...

Fairy nuff then, Star. ^_^

I love listening to music and writing/reading, because some music ties into writing/reading. Like, those are the songs I listened to whilst writing it. The last part was... Wow, I had TLBYE on repeat when writing that bit and I had tears blurring my vision but I mindlessly tapped away at the keys because I knew from the moment I'd started writing it that it would end like that and I was just watching it all happen once more in my head and just... I felt really helpless because I'd seen it before. I'd played it over and over and over in my head and I was just like ... No. I want to help. This doesn't happen. No. It's all wrong. They live happily ever after. But, I know they can't, so... ^_^

Star Inkbright said...

@Mushroom: You know, I was just getting over it and now I'm crying again. :P

I think you broke me. *nods*

Yeah . . . a lot of people say that music helps them write, but seeing as I can't do it, I just have to survive pathetically. *nods*

#ChaseForBookNine

said...

Hey guys!
@star Silente says mwahahahahaha you'll never be free of me now!

Luciana said...

I'M SORRY STAR OMG <3


I just like having sound whilst writing. :P

Star Inkbright said...

@Friendship: Hi! :)
Well, tell Silente I say I don't mind because she's awesome! :)

@Mushroom: Don't ever apologise for being wonderful at writing. :P

Yeah.
I dislike having sound whilst writing and I can remember us having this conversation before, many months ago, haha. XD

#ChaseForBookNine

said...

@star She says your more awesome. Naturally.
How are you both?

Star Inkbright said...

@Friendship: Tell her I tell her of course I am; I'm a bubble. :)

I'm broken. *nods*
Hunter's sad.
Ez is busy.

#ChaseForBookNine

Luciana said...

HAHAHAHA LOVE SONG CAME ON

I WANT TO CRY

THIS SONG IS SO SAD



I hate this Love Song.
ihatethislovesongggggggggggggggggggg.


But ugh GD's voice. MAAAAAAAAN.


WE PROBABLY HAVE HAD THIS CONVERSATION BEFORE MY DEAR STAAAAAAAR!
I'm okay at writing. I've got a lot to do before I get to wonderful. :P

said...

Your broken? Who's work did you read this time? Or was it word art that's broken you?
I hope Hunter cheers up.
Ez is almost always busy!

Star Inkbright said...

@Mushroom: We have. You said we were opposites. :P

I REMEMBER THE STRANGEST THINGS - there's so many conversations I don't remember . . . :O

@Friendship: I READ MUSHROOM'S THINGY. XD

I hope he cheers up too . . . :/
Otherwise Bad Stuff will happen. :/
And I don't want it to. :( :( :(

Ah, they're both always busy. :P
Hunter cares about people more though - well . . . he's more interested in them, too phrase it more accurately - so he comes here more.
On account of them being able to time travel, it takes pretty much no time out of their day to come here.
And if Ez isn't here, she's probably doing something else. *shrugs*
So what I really meant was, she isn't here. :P

said...

Ah okay then star. You could always buy hunter a living car if worse comes the wear?

Star Inkbright said...

Hunter says, in a rather pleased way, that a living car would defeat the point.

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

*screams* I can't stand my god damn fucking father!!!

All I fucking do is get screamed at. I'm trying to do my hair he's yelling because it was causing me problems and wouldn't do what I wanted so I asked for help from my mom. So she helps me and he's screaming at me for that. Then I'm walking out of the bathroom he's standing drying his hair as I walk out to go wash my hands in the kitchen so I'm not in his way he's screaming at me to wash my hands while he's critiquing my every movement of washing them. Then I get asked where my shirt is to be ironed I call back to my mom its down with the other stuff he's screaming that I gave attitude and how I'm such a horrible person and if I give 'attitude' i cant go to a party next week. All i fucking did was answer my mother. I hate him

said...

Gtg now, may be back later. Well, I may not be but most likely my typer will be. Bye!

Star Inkbright said...

@Zaf: -_-
Your father is just incredibly unreasonable and I just don't even understand it.

Gtg - dinner. D:

*the rolls over and moans in pain through her closed lips*
*her hands feel heavy and numb*
*her head is foggy and clouded*
*pain is a constant state in her body*
*sits up and reaches towards her eyes*
*feels the rough thread there*
*frowns causing the punctures around her mouth to be tugged tighter and bleed*
*fumbles at her eyes with clumsy fingers trying to rid herself of the thread*

*finally gives up with the thread*
*stumbles to her feet and listens carefully*
*frowns at her senses, which are usually immpecable but seem now to be fogged*
*starts stumbling in what she thinks is the vague direction of the clearing*
*has her arms out in front of her to protect her from walking into anything*
*her foot hits a tree root and she begins to tumble*
*barely manages to stay on her feet*
*sets off walking again, slowly and carefully*

@Adra: I go Tadra, but maybe only bc I don't know who ALastair IS, really. :P


Mostly probably not here.
#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

It's so hard to be torn with both, Taia.

Light Adra x Trip is adorable
Dark Adra x Alastair is adorable

Like

they both

UGHHHHGHGHHGSDUJLFVISJFBSD

So many feels :'(

Mary Contrary said...

@Adra: No reason why ye can't ship both, then.
Except for the apparent feels overload.
SO if you can find a way to deal with the feels, then I guess there's no problem? Kind of?
*hugs*
Good luck. :P


#ChaseForBook9

??????? ??????? said...

((How are you Adra? And how's evil Adra?))
*wanders around blindly*
*wonders how long it will be*
*and how far away she is*
*probably very far away*
*James doesn't make things easy*

Noelle said...

Well, I DO ship them both. The problem is having both of them without any of the characters getting hurt.

:o

*Sobs softly in the corner*

Noelle said...

(I'm in a pretty good mood, surprisingly. I had a great horseback riding lesson :) Shammy, my little blind baby, was really good today and her canter was stellar.)
(Evil Adra is... Well, good, because she's been with Alastair. With, obviously, being a euphemism for... Certain things)
(But yeah!)
(Adra's going to be shattered when she becomes herself again.... Like.... Totally :/ Alastair and Adra just did some really bad things, so...)

(IT IS TOTALLY CUTE THOUGH)

Star Inkbright said...

I ship Aladra so much but I hate it so much as well and Tadra is ADORABLE I love it so much BUT I LOVE ALADRA SO MUCH

nobody even understands
unless they ship both as well
in which case, their understanding gives no consolation to anyone, and only allows us all to suffer to death together
why

Noelle said...

Aretha and I are here for you, Star

Noelle said...

(Kitties!

Well, a.) Yes, for cheating on Trip. B.) Because of really bad things like murder and genocide of 1 billion people)

Star Inkbright said...

@Silente's roleplay: :( :( :( :( :(
I really wish I could help her out, you know? :/

@Adra: Aw.
*hugs*
WE CAN DIE TOGETHER.
*dies*

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

*Dies with Star*

((@star how'd you figure its Silente?))

Noelle said...

There's a kitty called Mittens at our barn. She's adorable and loves to cuddle :333333333

And, probably not o-o

Mary Contrary said...

@Adralalala: oh. D:
GAH. I am adviceless. SOrry. :P
I guess that non-evil Adra won't be so much into the idea of Aladra, then. IS dark Adra AGAINST Tadra or just more up for Aladra?
Because, like, IDK. :P

WHY DON'T YOU JUsT SHIP BOTH.
And then if somebody's gonna get hurt then just throw a magic protective bubble of smiles around all of them and refuse to let pain happen. :P

#CHaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

((I know!
I love Aladra but they just hurt everyone so much.

Everyone they come into contact with is hurt (except each other).

And the people they are in contact with morely, like Trip, get hurt morely.

And the people they are in contact with the most, aka themselves, even if they're other versions of themselves, get hurt TO THE BRINK OF HURTING and ohmygosh.
Adra
Niccolò
no
why
why
why
why

THEY'RE GOING TO BE HURT SO MUCH.

ALADRA ALADRA ALADRA, WHY CAN YOU NOT JUST PEACEFULLY COEXIST WITH EVERYONE? OR ANYONE? JUST ONE PERSON?
well
each other

I said told my sister that Aladra were cannibals and they ate human flesh, and she said I thought they were a ship, and I said they are, and she said, then they're not cannibals, and I said that they ate other ships as well (BECAUSE THEY FUCKING DO OKAY
Tadra </3), and she said ah, then they are cannibals. :P

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

Dark Aladra really just doesn't care about Trip :/

YES STAR

Cannibal!Aladra

Niccolo and Adra :/ He's going to be... Well... Gosh. :/

Star Inkbright said...

@Taia: But Aladra like to do fun things like go around murdering people and/or torturing people and/or eating people.
And Adra and Niccolò will feel SO DAMN GUILTY about it they'll just be so depressed and I'm just like NOOOOOOOOOO and I want Aladra to just die, now, to stop them being in any more pain (and Trip. Trip has his girlfriend going evil and going off cheating with someone else. She took off her engagement ring and left it on the bar counter. D: D: D: :( :( :(), but I DON'T WANT THEM TO DIE BECAUSE THEY'RE SO SHIPPABLE AND I LOVE THEM SO MUCH.

It's horribly painful. D: I'm sorry, I should stop ranting now. :P

#ChaseForBookNine

Mary Contrary said...

Hm.
You could lock dark Adra and Alastair in an area from which they somehow can't escape.
And they could have, like, millions of tiny plastic people for them to burn and slaughter.
And you could, like, record the sounds of people screaming and play it in the background.
But nobody ACTUALLY is hurt by them, see.
That's totally sensible. :P

#CHaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Actually, Taia, if that were to happen, they'd probably just start hurting each other for the fun of it and have really dark stuff.

Star Inkbright said...

@Taia: We can't lock them in a room because Alastair is pretty much all-powerful.
If we could lock them in a room, EVERYTHING WOULD ALL BE OKAY
except it wouldn't
because Aladra wouldn't exist anymore
CRAP

You see, whatever happens, now, it's bad. :(

And - possibly, but the plastic people wouldn't react. I don't think they'd be too impressed. They could just make out or whatever though. :P

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

OKAy-

So Alastair would get bored first, probably, and then Adra would probably offer to let him hurt her, but then he'd be like- no, I don't like seeing you get hurt (unless he were really desperate at this point????)

And then she'd probably hurt him..

And that's how I think it would go.

Noelle said...

Star- XD

Star Inkbright said...

Alastair wouldn't hurt Adra.
He loves her.

AWWWWWWWWH IT'S SO SWEET. <3

Although, actually - yeah, they would probably take it in turns to hurt each other. They do that anyway, with the biting, don't they?
And Alastair can just heal them. *nods*

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

He wouldn't hurt her very much, anyway.
And her hurting him is probably almost as good as him hurting anyone else.

#ChaseForBookNine

Mary Contrary said...

@Star: D:
Tadra though. :(

BAH.

I see your points.

And it sucks.

UGH.

YOU GUYS ARE MAKING ME FEEL.

I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DEAL WITH SHIP DIFFICULTIES. D:

*turns into Taiaceratops*
*roars quietly in a corner*

#ChaseForBook9

??????? ??????? said...

((They take it in turns to bite each other..? That's strangely beautiful.))

Noelle said...

*Nods to Star again* Yeah o-o

Like, Adra doesn't feel bad about hurting Alastair if he likes it. You know, I don't think he would feel bad either if he knew that she liked it?

Hmm... Curious. I'll have to ask.


Hmmmmm... Even still. I think it's more of like, they don't like other people hurting each other for the point of pain, not pleasure, you feel me?

Star Inkbright said...

@Taia: I DON'T EITHER! D:

*dies*

And -

I know.

I love Tadra. :(

Sorry, Taia . . . :/

#ChaseForBookNine

??????? ??????? said...

((They take it in turns to bite each other..? That's strangely beautiful.))

Noelle said...

AWH TAIAAAAAA *huggles* No bae <3

@Silente- yeah. While, like, making out and such xD

Star Inkbright said...

@Adra: He probably wouldn't, no.

And - yeah.

@Silente: I'll copy and paste you! :)

And - *confusedly nods at Adra*

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

*Cuddles Star*

??????? ??????? said...

It won't let me delete that comment. Pretend I only said it once..

Mary Contrary said...

@Question-y-Silente: It is, rather. :)


*frowns*
I don't LIKE shipping. It hurts. :P
But-
cfhyuuvynbe.;
nbfy
hg

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME? D:

#CHaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*Nods confusedly back* What I mean, Star is that, for example, if someone opened fire on Alastair with a machine gun, it'd HURT, but she wouldn't like it, because they're trying to maliciously hurt him. That's different than if she bit/scratched/whatever him, when she isn't doing it maliciously. Moreof, lovingly.

Or something.

Star Inkbright said...

SORRY TAIA! D:

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

@Adra: Ah. *nods* Yes. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

*Cuddles Taia*

*Hugs*

Have you actually ever read any Aladra stuff?

If you want, I can email you some snippets that I'm working on. it's quite sweet, actually.

??????? ??????? said...

I haven't read any before..

Noelle said...

I have a feeling that Aladra kinda makes people less afraid of Alastair.

Like, because he has a soft spot for Adra and stuff. I mean, probably not less scared, because they carve up humans for fun, but you know.

Noelle said...

Silente! I can send you a snippet too, if you want?

There's a chapter on my Ships blog as well OuO

Mary Contrary said...

THAT'S OKAY STAR! D:
:P

*hugs Adro back*
*whispers* No.
Yes, sure.
But then the feels.
Is that SAFE?
IDK.
Yes.
YEs, please. :P


#ChaseForBook9

??????? ??????? said...

I'm not scared of them anyway. I was scared of Alastair at first but not as much now. Adra hasn't given me due cause to fear her.

??????? ??????? said...

I've read the one including star on your blog. It portrayed star perfectly.

Noelle said...

It's safe, Taia :)

I'll just send a few quotes and stuffs :D



And, you would be Silente, if you saw Alastair more. He's scary. Though personally, I think War is scarier. But Alastair and War can't really be compared, because they're two totally different entities.

So yeah.

Adra...? Again, you haven't seen a lot, I think...

Noelle said...

Star speaks with emoticons xD

??????? ??????? said...

No I haven't seen a lot. But knowing more doesn't mean I'd find them scary.

Noelle said...

Not knowing more, Silente. Seeing more. Feeling more, experiencing more.

Alastair: *lets out a light groan, his grip on her hair tightening* *stops kissing her for a moment to breathe, his breaths hot against her neck* I bloody love you...

Adra: *Laughs slightly, a little out of breath* That sounds familiar.. *She goes back to kissing the blood away from the bite* You're not too shoddy yourself...

Alastair: *the bite continues to bleed where it's broken his skin* I'm glad you think so. *just breathes for a moment longer, then starts at her neck again, much closer to her hairline* *slides one hand down to rest at her hip*

Adra: *She stops kissing for a moment* You don't think this will be fatal, do you?

Alastair: *stops as well, lifting his head so he can stare at her eyes* I don't think what will be fatal?

Adra: The bite- I don't want to have accidentally put you in danger.

Alastair: *evades the question for a moment* *blood starts to drip from his neck onto hers, some of it landing on her hair as well* You feigned the role of concern exceptionally well earlier today. I believe I actually saw you crying.

Adra: *The ignores the blood* Your point..?

Alastair: I wonder that you might be legitimately concerned for my welfare sometimes. *smiles, laughing a little* No, love, it's not going to kill me. I can make new blood as fast as you can drain it.

Adra: Oh, bite me. Maybe I am! *Huffs, going back to kissing the blood away*

Alastair: *resumes kissing her neck, as well* Is that an invitation? *bites her softly again* *hesitates, then-* That's alright. I might occasionally be concerned for you, as well.

Adra: How sweet of you, love. *Her teeth graze over the skin of his neck, then she bites into him again- not as hard as the time previous, but enough to draw blood* *She laughs, enjoying herself*

Alastair: I assure you, it's purely selfish. *exhales slowly into her skin as she bites him again* *adjusts his grip on her hair, using his hand on her hip to move her slightly so he can reach more of her shoulder, trailing kisses along her skin from her neck down*

Adra: I'm certain. *Brushes over the bite marks on his neck with the back of her finger, then licks them off*
*Makes a line of kisses from the bite marks to his ear, which she nibbles beggingly with her teeth*
*Murmurs a few provocative things to him, then goes back to his neck*

Alastair: *slides her properly underneath him again so his head ends up right around her ear* *matches her comments, whispering smoothly* *brings his mouth to meet hers again, pulling her other sleeve away from her shoulder as he licks the few drops of his own blood off her neck*

Adra: Hmm... Would you like me to bite you again?

Alastair: As often as you want to, love. I don't imagine I'll get tired of it. *goes ahead and heals the marks already on his neck, since his head is on a different side of hers now*

Adra: *Smiles* Well then...*She softly bites the skin near the base of his neck, then digs her teeth in- she does so three times, each time clamping down on his skin as hard as she can, relishing the feel of his tearing flesh and muscle, his veins popping, blood pouring all over her new shirt*
*Her other hand has slipped under the back of the collar of his shirt and she claws her fingernails directly with his skin, pulling upwards towards his neck, feeling him start to bleed*

Alastair: *tightens his hand in her hair into a fist, wrapping his other arm around her waist and pressing her tightly against him as she draws blood* *a light shiver runs through him- he's unaccustomed to and excited by this kind of pain* *depending on how much attention to detail she's paying, she might notice that the scratches she made on his coat are also on his bare skin*

Adra: *Gasps, feeling the tug on her hair* *She doesn't mind* *Smirks at his reaction, returning her hands to trailing down his sides, digging her nails into him wherever she can*

Still, doesn't mean I'd find them scarier. There's a high chance it would but I have a screwed up and stubborn mind. Plus Alastair find me boring so I doubt I'll be 'experiencing' more from him anytime soon. And Adra seems to leave me be apart from threatening to eat me.

Its DISGUSTING ok? Don't even mention when I'm around

Star Inkbright said...

@Taia: *laughs* :P

@Adra: HUNTER SAYS I SHOULD REBEL.

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

@Zaf: Yes.
Yes, it is rather disgusting.

#ChaseForBookNine

??????? ??????? said...

Yeah okay Adra. My email-kutekillerkitty@gmail.com

And no I didn't realise how racist it sounded until I'd made it. My friends have already pointed this out to me and mocked me about it.

Noelle said...

I know, Silente. I have your email xD

Yeah, but it's TOTALLY ADORABLOODTHIRSTY.

Star Inkbright said...

(Hunter is always telling me to rebel though.
I don't generally do it. :P)

#ChaseForBookNine

??????? ??????? said...

How do you have me email...

Star Inkbright said...

ADORABLOODTHIRSTY. XD

#ChaseForBookNine

??????? ??????? said...

Noelle said...

Do it, Star.


I've stolen it when I was ghosting once, Silente.

DON'T WORRY THOUGH

THIS IS REALLY CUTE

AND NOT SEXUAL

Okay there are references, but you all are big girls o-o

Mary Contrary said...

Gotta go

*hugs all*

BYE.

#ChaseForBook9

??????? ??????? said...

That's a little weird Adra. A little weird..

Star Inkbright said...

Fours, Taia! :(

@Silente: I used to steal tons of emailing through reading old comments. :P
It made me feel a bit like a stalker, but hey, you know, they're posted on a public website and it's not like I'm going to do anything bad with them.

@Adra: So you want me to rebel against your smut rule?

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

Thanks, Silente. You're the best.

Bye Taia!!

Noelle said...

Noooo rebel to everything but smut, Star.

??????? ??????? said...

Bye Taia!

@Adra you're welcome.

Star Inkbright said...

@Adra: That sentence, however, is an instruction, a command, and as such, I should rebel to it. :P

(Don't worry. I'm not rebelling to most of the stuff Hunter tells me to rebel to.)
(I do like not getting detentions.)
(Not that I've ever gotten a detention before so technically I might enjoy them and not have found out yet, but I doubt that. :P)

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

kay, Star xD

Btw, Silente- I'll be sending a cute bit, and then a bit where they're torturing people, just so you kinda see both sides of the relationship.

??????? ??????? said...

That's fine Adra.

Noelle said...

Okay :) Sent!!!

Dragona Pine said...

My aunt tried to give me their cat...

Dragona Pine said...

You don't refuse a cat. Cats are awesome.

??????? ??????? said...

*face palm*
I leave my seat for 10 SECONDS! And when I come back the kittens have stolen it. Cheers guys! Not like I was sitting there!

Star Inkbright said...

Not here for long . . .

Okay, so we were watching Merlin, and it's that one where that Gillian person is using magic to cheat in that tournament, you know?
And then merlin uses magic to stop Gillian winning, and then after the tournament, Merlin said he had no choice, and Gillian said, it's okay, you did what you had to do, and you betrayed our kin. And Merlin said, no, that was you. You're being dishonourable, with what you're doing. It's you who's shaming us.
And then Gillian suddenly realised what Merlin had been getting at, and he understood.

And I was just like -_- because the likelihood of that working in real life is incredible slim.
Often, you can talk to people, and you can be totally reasonable and logical and what you're saying just will not seem to lodge in their heads. And if Gillian had not been - yeah, then Merlin could have talked to him and been reasonable and logical and tell Gillian how magic worked until the cows came home, and Gillian would still have thought that he knew best and gone along in life being pig-headed until it got him killed.
:/

Like my metaphor about revenge.
And I'm sure I can tell people about revenge until the cows come home, as well, and nobody will listen and there will be more pain in the world because of it.

Star Inkbright said...

(Just to be clear, my family happens to own all six seasons of Merlin on DVD and we've watched most of them five or six times. :P)

Chione Asahina said...

Oh god, I just watched R.I.P.D lol! oh man that's funny. I loved it.

Hi everyone.

Mary Contrary said...

*frowns* I'm not sure I should be allowed to mark/grade my own work. I am simultaneously too harsh and too generous. :P
I don't give myself a mark if I don't use particular phrasing, or include some correct information that is unnecessary. But I'll let myself off if I'm like OH WELL I KNOW WHAT I MEANT BY THAT.
So I have no idea how well I've ACTUALLY done because I can't do things. :P

So I've just decided that the things I need to learn are everything, because my evaluating is so MESSY. :P

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

@Star: I get you. But I guess it depends on the situation and mentality and the specific time and just general stuff factors.
Like, you CAN go on at somebody and they just don't GET it.
But at some point, sometimes, they do.
And it takes until a specific time or place of thing for that to happen?
And sometimes you KNOW that the other person who's telling you until the cows do the thing that the cows do, you know that person is RIGHT. But you don't let yourself see it because you don't want to give in or something that you're not really sure what but you'd rather just be irritated and feel angry at them instead of seeing and looking at and accepting it.
And so Gillian's place maybe having been told before and maybe already knowing but ignoring or not quite letting himself KNOW that he knows... Maybe the particular situation or time or something going on at a particular feeling or mentality inside of his head, some factor, maybe that mean that when Merlin told him again, this time, he DID let himself look and see it, or just gave up being angry or aggressive about it?
idk.
I have never watched Merlin so I kind of have no idea what I am talking about, and could be completely wrong for the situation, but I kind of also maybe do know what I'm talking about in a way.
But, idk.
It's like, people act differently depending on a lot of different things, so it's not just a matter of what they usually do, so much as things that have happened or things on your mind or where you are or what other people think and what it makes you feel and what kind of threats there are or whatever. And all of those things can affect little functions in your head so you end up doing one thing instead of another.
Idk.
Maybe.

@Taia: I'm not going to give you a long reply here.
I'm going to nod at you in acknowledgement, agree and impress upon the importance of always hoping, and then I'm going to sit here going :/ and wonder why the hell we can't all just be nice to each other. :P

Not really here. Need to go to sleep. Msd.

I really wish I could help you out . . .

And in response to your earlier question - it was quite easy to see it was you, from reading what has been happening in your roleplay and judging from the way you write. :P

I will need my sleep, seeing as how I won't be able to sleep tomorrow night, because I will be SCARED TO DEATH, so. XD
