«Oldest ‹Older 3001 – 3200 of 4483 Newer› Newest»Messenger pigeon sounds good. *nods thoughtfully*
And thanks, Viv!
Skywriter? *doesn't really know what it is*
One of them planes that sprays letters in the sky.
Ah. Well. Seeing as I don't know his email address or where to post a letter to, messenger pigeon and skywriter seem like the obvious choice. :P
*poofs*
Sorry...
(El, please come back!!! Or Fay!!! Or snyone!!!)
VIEH: Yes bravo to the Hunter chap.
*would come back but I'm going out in like ten minutes so I might just sit here*
(Hello)
(Hi. Ish. :))
VIEH: Well you see THAT I don't know. He SAYS he got all the dark energy out but...well....be on guard.
Came back for one comment:
I just reached 11, 321 words for my story!
*just putting that out there for anyone who actually cares :P*
((Star: He can sense the energy, but technically there could be some left mingled in, but the amount would very very small if he couldn't sense it when he was focusing so the effects would be very minimal anyway.)
@Fay: YAAAAAAAAAY! :) *hugs* Well done! :)
((Small enough for be almost nonexistent.))
(thanks 4 da info *)
*almost
((Idk how powerful/determined this dark energy is though. But even if it is, still - very small.
*hits my urge to recarify :P*))
*reclarify
VIEH: If you must. May I say you are a VERY annoying host.
(Seriously! I get a nosebleed the second everyone is on!!)
(Back)
((Btw El, I'm not changing my pic until you draw Viv))
((I know... It's gonna be a while))
VIEH: you would rather I had left you all to die? I can still do that you realise. Leave you to die. No more visions, no more warnings, no more advice. Would that be preferred? That I leave you blind.
We here?
*poofs*
VIEH: Because that is my nature. My job if you will.
D:
I have to go for 20ish mins, once I'm back I'll ded.
Sorry.
(*a siren starts wailing and twenty armored trucks pull up, each one disgorging five uniformed men carrying dart guns*
*they circle around the wild Snow*
*a hundred red dots appear on her body*)
VIEH: I am me. And no I haven't been in any other....'Bloglandians'....heads. Only yours..
(Freeze in the name of the Zoo!)
*snuggles deeper into Viv's chest*
*sighs against the warm wall of muscle*
(*laughs* you'll never catch me alive! *teleports away*)
(Be back in 10)
VIEH: You want me to stay in your head indefinitely? Do you not think I have better things to do?
*opens his eyes sleepily*
*lightly kisses her*
Hey, it's a brand new day. What should we do with it?
*grins*
Tell it to shove off and let us sleep for a couple more hours?
*snuggles against his chest*
Hmmmm...
VIEH: You'll have what remain of your friends to talk too.
(*the men scramble back into their trucks and drive off, waiting for the sattelites yo pinpoint Snow's position and plot their next course*)
Can do.
*relaxs and closes his eyes again, letting Sil burrow into his chest*
Can do.
(Awh hell no...
Ish...
I've got an idea.
Not a plan.
An idea.)
*to
VIEH: Because it was a warning vision.
*smiles as her closes his eyes and a dark chuckle echoes around her head*
Goooood...
(email)
*dozes off with Sil safely in his arms*
*sighs and relaxes against him*
*doesn't actually know where Patch is right now..*
(I think I'm back.)
I would like to dedicate to Get Thee Behind Me, Bubba Moon.
Because, and this could just be me, not once in the story do you see the name of the main character. Again, it could just be me being unobservant.
But you feel a connection to him. You want him to be okay once the story's ended.
Knowing completely that he's fictional, you care about this character.
Just like Val. And Skul. And Ghastly. And Tanith. And Harry, Hermione, Ron. And Percy and Annabeth and Grover and Thalia and all our own characters and-
To cut it short, all those other countless characters.
*end ded*
*poofs*
(Hear Hear!)
(Yes El. Yes. And curled up in Viv's arms right now...)
Imma backkk
(I get my exam results today.)
I haven't read that yet. I've had it since the book came out and I haven't read it.
(4?)
Writing a parody for do you wanna build a snowman bassed on door to door salesmen
(XD)
(How is everyone?)
I am having sooooo much fun XD
(Loki... Love... I'm sorry... The wifi was taken away and only just restored...
But while that was happening, I've planned my death. In a new wonderful way.)
*She was sitting on Danger, her rock. She named it that because of the last two times she had sat there something bad had happened. It was her favourite rock. She loved it. It was perfect. Someone cleared their throat behind her and she turned, looking up at a man silhouetted against the sun*
Man: Excuse me, Miss Rose, my name is Charcoal Fall. I work for the Polar Sanctuary. You are under arrest.
*She grinned up at him*
Rose: What for this time?
Fall: You don’t remember what happened last time you visited Antarctica, do you?
Rose: You don’t remember how many times people have said that, do you?
Fall: How would I have that knowledge? You are under arrest for attempted murder on our Grand Mage, destruction of our Southern Sanctuary, countless murders of prisoners and staff alike, and violating your sentence stowed upon you by Grand Mage Eclipse.
*She thought about that for a moment*
Rose: That happened years ago. Why are you coming for me now?
Fall: We have only now located your whereabouts and we have been waiting for orders indicating we can use whatever force we deem fit.
Rose: I remember how this ended last time…
Fall: Four broken ribs, shattered disk in your spine, a broken nose, dislocated jaw, shattered knees and a sprained ankle.
Rose: I said I remembered!
*Fall grabbed her shoulder and hauled her to her feet. She didn’t fight him. She didn’t want to fight him. He tied her hands together with thick rope and cut off her scream with duct tape placed over her mouth*
(See ya Dragona!
Hey El! Don't worry, it gets much better!)
*She tried to scream, but the duct tape covering her mouth muffled it. Her hands were tied behind her back with thick, rough rope, the same as her ankles. She couldn’t move*
Mmph!
*Fall, who had tossed her onto the ground inside the Antarctic cell, kicked at her ribs and she took a sharp intake of breath*
MMM!
*Tears pooled in her eyes as she struggled against her bonds. The man closed the heavy steel door, leaving a clang! echoing throughout the room. She sat in the semi-darkness for a long time, there was no way of knowing how much time had passed with no outside light entering the room*
*Eventually, she was summoned. Another man came in, put a collar around her neck and ripped off her restraints. Her mouth stayed covered. She was led out into the hallway and lost her bearings within seconds*
*She was led to a large room, the Throne Room, where Grand Mage Eclipse sat, grey thinning hair tucked under his beanie. His Elder robes had been cut off around the elbows and knees, exposing his thin limbs. When he lay eyes on her, a wide, malicious grin cut his features open like a wound*
Eclipse: Ah, Death, finally.
(@El Mwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! *cough* So you like the idea then?)
(HEY ROSE!)
(HEY SIL!)
(*Looks at completed RP*
*Giggles*)
(How are you crazy?)
(Dinner...)
(*is very scared at this plan of Sil's*)
(Does Viv know the plan or not?)
(*swunnkk* *a dart comes out of the bushes, punching into a tree next to Snow*. *all of a sudden the clearing is full of men shooting tranq darts at her*)
(No he doesn't which is what scares him)
(hmmm..hey El do you think knowing woild scare him more or less?)
(El, isn't it 3 in the morning for you? How are you still awake?!)
(*laughs* *holds out psychic paper* this is a license declaring I'm allowed to be free. See?)
*Fall returned for her too soon. She was taken out and forced to walk down a narrow path to where the executions took place*
Fall: Dead man walking!
*She shrunk down as she entered the room. A Cleaver stood in front of her, his scythe gripped firmly in his hand. Another Cleaver stood guard by the door. To her left, a large one-way mirror took up the space of the wall. She could feel a dozen pairs of eyes on her, all eager, all waiting for her death. All she could see was her own tear soaked face. Her hair was knotted and messy. Her jacket was torn*
*The Cleaver behind her motioned her forward and she obliged silently. The other Cleaver took his scythe from his back and twirled it in his hand. He was showing off*
(@Snow: We aren't the zoo honey, we don't follow the law, we are what you might call poachers!)
((@El, insomnia?))
(*laughs harder* *gestures for them to come closer* *whispers* I'm not actually a wild snow. I'm a fake! A fraud! *laughs*)
(A wild Snow has appeared.
Rose used huggle on the wild Snow.
It was very effective.)
(No one will be able to tell after we skin you!
*a dart appears in her foot*)
(*huggles Deathooo*)
(@El: oh, I'm both so...)
(*laughs*
*murders them all*
*stabs viv*
*runs away*)
(I've got an overactive mind. No sleepy for me either...
*Cuddles El*
I feel you, man!)
*Her knees were kicked out from under her and she fell. She stayed where she was as the Cleavers raised their scythes and swung downwards*
(AAAAAND, I'LL BE TAKING BETS ON WHO GUESSES THE CORRECT OUTCOME OF THIS! IT HAS ALREADY BEEN DECIDED!)
(*dies from stab wound*)
(@Death decapitation? Please let it be decapitation)
(I'm guessing Antartica sinks and everyone dies)
(Shall I post the next part, Snow? You might be right...)
(Viv, do you want to see the ending?
*Laughs at what a horrible person herself is*)
(Sure. I love violence and death scenes)
(the Cleavers kill eachother?)
(Yes and no!)
(Okay, I'm posting it!!)
(@Sil: you horrible person! I take that personally!)
*Rose’s head rolled away from her body that had been cut smoothly in half. The Cleavers stood back to their original positions. Grand Mage Eclipse applauded enthusiastically. He had been awaiting this day far too long. He relished every single moment of it. The people around him clapped too, their spirits high with the execution*
*Eclipse was slightly saddened that she hadn’t put up a fight. That she hadn’t died trying to save herself. She submitted to her fate. He heard someone to his right whisper exactly what he had thought, making him smile*
Rose has finally fallen!
She can’t bother us anymore!
I realleh wish shed fourt. Dat woulda bin betteh!
I know! She just didn’t care!
I heard she had twins. She’s a mum and just gave up like that? Ha!
She deed? Twens? Who to?
A god. Asgardian or somethin’. Y’know… What’s ‘is name? Loki? The one with black ‘air?
*The comments around him only made his grin grew. She had been a mother. To twins. And now she left the newborns without a female presence in their lives*
(Snow wins!)
(Now let's take bets on how long it will be until the Chitauri level Antartica)
(YESSS
DECAPITATION FTW)
(@Viv, I'm such a horrible person... But killing myself on RP is so much fun!!!))
(...why is El crying?)
(*Cuddles El*)
(Three hours? I giving it three hours)
(I've been a good little criminal and done what's right.)
(Loki will take care of the twins. He's a good dad.
I say two, Viv.)
Who wants a sneak peek at what I'm writing? No kne? Well, you get it anyway.
Do you wanna buy a bible?
Come on, it's two for one!
You wont have to see me anymore
But if you slam the door
I'll never go away
I could try to sell you bunnies
And aardvarks too
So what are you gonna buy?
Do you wanna buy a bible?
Would-be costumer: go away, idiot
Okay, bye
(Snow: Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.
El, twenty points if I don't!)
(I say its already gone.)
(Moi? Hate me? Why ever so dear El?)
(Nanight El.....pleasant dreams. *whispers* we'll be waiting...)
(*Snickers at Sil's comment*
Most probably...)
(I'll taunt you all I want, El!)
HELLO AGAIN
(Aw... :'( ))
(*grins* Toodle pip Elleni. Don't worry, everything will work out fiiiiiiiiiiiine.)
(HELLO STAR)
(HELLO INK BUBBLE)
HELLO DEATH AND SILENTE. :)
I AM AN INK BUBBLE, YES. :)
Wbd, I think. Want to write.
(Well, I'm just going to chill around... Rose is kinda... Occupied...)
(Yeah, Rose IS kinda occupied. :P)
(So, this whole thing I've been leading up to. Blake got rid of her fight. She didn't get it back when Fall came for her. I've been meaning to write something about her past meeting up with her and now was the perfect time for it. She was alone. She wasn't doing anything and she had just had a great day.
She couldn't physically fight him. Or Eclipse's ruling. So she had to die. I might write a few things about her being dead...)
(OH MY GOD! I WROTE THIS FOREVER AGO!
*Sobs with laughter*)
(And this just goes to prove my theory about traits. You can't take a bad thing out of a person without also taking a good thing, and if you took away something of a person, they wouldn't be them anymore.
Yes.
Thank you.
*nods towards my rant about traits*
*nods towards Trip destroying Alastair*
*nods in a satisfied manner*)
(I will only have this link not on private for five minutes if you want to read...)
http://littleheadstories.blogspot.com.au/
(I wrote these weeks ago...
*Snickers and dies*)
(And it's closed again...)
((NOOOO! I ONLY GOT TO READ ONE!!!))
(Which one did you read?)
https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?postID=8984729553291518842&blogID=1104475307058729066&isPopup=true&page=4
Good page. Still a bit concerned about it...))
Hey y'all.
Just dropping in to let ye know that I'll be on indefinite hiatus due to technical device issues.
I might be able to drop in a general comment every so often, but, idk. Not sure if I can get email up, likewise.
A gentle reminder, though, that you're perfect. Because you are. *nods* :)
Okay, Taia. :/ :/ *hugs*
(*Cuddles Taia*
I'll miss ya, Taia. You're perfect too.
<3
))
I think I'm slowly wearing down my mum. I might make it to Melbourne. Eeep!
(YAY!! I HOPE WE CAN MEET UP IN MELB!!!))
I might be back... I am not sure though, cause I'm still at work and as soon as somebody makes me do things, I'll poof.
But for the moment, I am back.
Hi everyone!
(Hey Holmes!
*Checks the time*
*Swears*
*Wonders what happened to 8:30*)
(Hey Flower! *cuddles* Did you see my comment on your last post?)
(*Cuddles back*
Yeah... And thank you <3 ))
Yay, Snow! :)
Hey again, Mith! :)
(Shit... Too much work to do now... Too late too...
*Runs away for a moment*
*Returns slowly*
There goes dinner...)
*waves at Star* Hey bubble! :)
Flower, I shouldn't have clicked the last link you commented. I read and read and then I teared up in front of my colleagues (no idea if the spelling of this stupid word is right and right now I don't care...). I managed to tell them it was an allergic reaction to dust. But still... I never realised it had become that bad. Everything. I stayed away from the blog because I didn't have enough time and because I'm not good at roleplaying and there were no People on that just wanted to talk... but I never realised it had become that bad.
Sorry, I just had to get that out.
(Holmes, yeah, I know... It was bad for a while last month... Things have kinda settled down. And I was fully ready to leave. But then the whole 'Loki' thing happened...
*Cuddles tightly*)
Gah, I don't know how to feel right now... I'm close to tears - thank god I'm alone now - but then I don't want to care so much about something I can't change. BUT of course I care, cause I love blogland and I love every single one of you because you all are great in your very own way...
*sighs*
*cuddles Flower back*
(Okay, lets get off this topic.
You're German, right? I went to Munich earlier this year. Have you been?)
HELLO
(Hey Kes!)
Good idea.
*nods*
*reads the last line again*
YOU WENT TO MUNICH? I live like a two-hours-drive away from Munich!!
And Hi Kessie!! :) Not sure if you will remember me...^^
(Yeah, we spent a night there. We visited Dachau(?), the concentration camp... It gave me the chills...
AND THERE WAS A ZEPPELIN! LIKE A REAL ZEPPELIN IN THE AIR!!))
(*casually slides back in as if she never left*
Hey Kessy! How are you?)
We went to Dachau on a School trip for history. It was horrible. It was two years ago but I remember every second.
(*attempts to hug Silente* *stops* Oh, right. No hugs for vampires. I Keep forgetting...)
(Welcome back, Sil!)
(*Wonders briefly where Loki is because she wants a Loki cuddle*)
Hey Death!
*stares creepily at Mithria* I remember everything....
Ayyy Storm! I'm good except I wanna write and my computer's in the other room and I can't get it without waking my parents :/ How are you?
(*wonders if she should correct Mir* ...)
(Don't find this mean or anything (if you are offended by this), Holmes, but what the Nazis did 100 years ago was horrible... We studied WW1 and WW2 earlier this year... Being at Dachau made me feel so sick... Just that pressure...)
(Storm, you probably should so that I can reign supreme)
(I'm good. Wondering how angry Star and Fabi would be if I set a date for the BA's....)
*wakes up and throws the windows open*
(Hey Viv!
DON'T FORGET THAT THE 1ST OF SEPTEMBER IS THE REQUIEM BALL!!!)
What do you mean, set a date?(I never voted like the moron I am)
Death, anyone who is offended by you saying the Nazis were awful is probably not someone you want to be talking to :/
(You? Supreme? Pffft!)
*rolls onto her back and raises an eyebrow at Viv*
(Just never talked to a German about this subject. Could be different over there, Kes.)
(Ser a date for the award giving...)
(Well, if I'm the only one, then yes, I am supreme.)
Death, so we have a date? Excellent...
*goes off to look for dresses*
(Sorry for the response delay, some unrelated good news happened :))
*hugs Star and Death* thanks, you two. :)
I could be back to normal by the end of the week, but I really don't know. Depends on what the problem is. Doesn't look very promising, though. :/
*hugs Slow because yay! :)*
*hugs Kestrel and Mythria, because it's been a while and is good to see you both:)*
*rolls out, probably*
Wake up sleepy head!
Despite my best efforts the day has arrived. We slept in way too long. I'm sure that the people who had appointments to kill us this morning have already sent their formal complaints in the mail.
(It's always the 1st of September... Always will be too!)
(My ribs hurt... I don't know why.. The bottoms of my ribs feel like they're breaking...)
*hugs Taia* Hi/bye!
Kessie. That was a Little scary... but that's fine. I like scary People.^^
(Autocorrect keeps capitalizing words. Please just ignore it, I'm too lazy to correct Autocorrect.)
Flower, why would I be offended? It's true that Germany has this horrible and terribly sad history. I will never be able to understand how NSDAP and stuff like that could get so popular. Believe me, Dachau also made me sick. I had some sort of break-down when we were there...
(Pffft. You ain't supreme. And who says Sil won't get herself turned back?)
(Btw, if I suddenly disappear, someone gave me work to do...)
(Having a shower now...
*Mutters angrily*)
(Well, until such time as that happens, I AM supreme. Anyway, why would you want to get turned back?)
They can wait a BIT longer.
*grins*
*the grin looks at tiny bit off*
Well I can't. Do you have a shower in this treehouse? I need to get ready for the half day left.
(There are perks that Sil enjoyed about being a vamp. And she wouldn't mind having them back.)
PS: NEW POST, folks :)
Sil, what are you talking about? With the turning back, I mean... What did I miss this time?
Bathroom. State of the art.
*grins at him more*
Thanks Taia!
(Anyone still on this page?)
Morning
(I presume we're here?)
(Food brb.)
Yes. Bye!
(bye Dug.)
(Kk Draggie)
(Hey El. That's cute.)
(Ellpheus. Orlleni. Orni. Ellus...)
(Hows you? How's youTC?)
(Sounds good. *nods* Ellpheus. That's a good name.)
(I'm good. Got a sore throat for some reason...
SilTC is not good. But she'll be fine.)
(Yeah. She hasn't had any today (except for what she sucked out of Deaths jacket) and she didn't have a sufficent amount yesterday.)
(Hey Sort. How's your author?)
(Kes has her supply as do hospitals and donation vans. But that means robbing them. Some dodgy jobs can get her paid in blood.)
*walks over to Sil*
Ah, you are that vampire I met earlier.
*smiles nervously*
(.. which is?)
(Hi everyone!)
(Oh come on! Seriously? *sighs*
*goes thinking about a ded*)
*looks up at Sort, one hand clenched*
Hey..
*focuses on the pain*
J
(Hey Mir! XD)
(Sorta..)
Um...are you ok?
*kneels down and examines her skin*
You have sigils. I knew it!
