With Desolation only a few days away, I am still hard at work on the third and final Demon Road book.
From the beginning, I wanted these books to be as streamlined as possible — I wanted them short and punchy. Now, I completely failed with Demon Road, as it was a pretty big book, and only got slightly better with Desolation, which is shorter, but it looks like I'm finally getting the hang of this with Book 3, which will hopefully be the perfect length.
And the title?

Michael: nope.
*runs the water*
Alice: would I do that?
Alys; but it's my home.. You're a g guess..
Oh. That's...upsetting.
*raises hand* if you so read back, I'd like to add that I was suffering from sleep deprivation at the time.
Hate sleep deprivation. I can never judge what I'm saying.
@Kessie Yeah, I think we all said some things that he's going to regret.
Or not! *shrugs*
@Star Same here, I get cranky when sleepy but I stand by what I say.
Tresha: *glows and becomes furry*

This is true. And even then... I was gone for several months once, and I'm still not gone gone.
Also, Gemma's been participating in my mini-game thing.
Tresha: Alice please.. Please..
Michael: *pushes at the door*

Alice: what's it to you?
Alys: *tries to hold door close*

*shifts and runs*
Oops. Sorry lost service
*had actually watched the video with Val and Noelle*
*i was reading comments on the link Noelle put up and on those was the link*
*it was fabulous*
*you weirdos :))*
*has been to many of those places*
*because Seattle*
*but really enjoyed the video*
:D it was fun
Wait
Which link?
It looked really fun!!
Uh, idk. It was like the page before the fight? It was when you were talking about a new plot (I'd love to join if I'm not busy if you do one!!) and then put out a link to the beginning (ish) of a plot? I think it was the demon plot.
(I think Jai has gone to bed
So I think I shall
Nos da you beautiful people *leaves hugs*)
And then the link to your video was on that page. Or the next. Idk which
*hugs Chloe*
Goodnight!
Sleep well!
Oh!
Last page?
:-)
The demon plot was really cool. I don't remember the name of Fabi's demon... :-/
I remember Fabi died at one point though.
I also remember Lorelei. :'(
I need to read through the stuff on Nameless again...
*nods*
*Unfortunately doesn't remember either* :(
Found it. It was Ophelia.
...
I really shouldn't have forgotten that one, considering...
Haha
Yessss I remember now.
I think that was on purpose
It probably was on purpose. You put a lot of thought into that plot.
That was a very well thought out plot
:3
*Fabi deserved Shakespeare*
Hi guys
*noelle curls up to be warm*

Good morning, Bloglandians!

See you, Chloe!
*not really here yet, but will be in a bit*
*but for now, here's some cookies and tea*
*is back, but wbd*
Hey, Hope!
Here!)
Hi Kas! Hi Chloe!
(*hugs Everyone*)
Hey, Hope and Chloe!
Sorry, I am busy! :/
(It snowed today)
*hugs Chloe back*
*is also being sidetracked*
Snow in April??? O.o How much??
(It was more sleety showers
Jack lives three hours away and he said its beach weather there!)
Weather is wacky...
It was proper snowing here this morning :D Massive flakes and everything!
Didn't settle of course coz the ground was too warm and ten minutes later it was like bright sunshine, but still.
(K thought it was global warming)
*waves to Star*
*still thinks weather is wacky*
(*cartwheels*)
*somersaults*
*turns into an armadillo and keeps rolling*
*rolls into a tree*
...
(Was snowing here too. Crazy weather.)
Writing prompt: "Whose idea was it to steal that pirate ship anyway?"
The crew turned to the young man standing off to the side, leaning against the doorframe. He simply looked at the captain and shrugged, "I thought it was a good idea at the time, alright?"
The captain appraised him, curiosity etched on her face. "What's your name, boy?"
The young man scowled. "My name's Jack, and I'm not a boy."
"Sure you're not," snickered one of the crew mates. "And I'll bet you're not a runaway slave, neither."
*ideas end here*
*literally just wrote that off the top of my head right now*
*pretty short for how long it took to write it*
...
*is still an armadillo*
*only the Brits would have snow in April...*
*unless it's the southern half of the world*
*only teasing*
Global warming may mean that after a while, England actually gets colder. Right now, England is warmer than it ought to be, because we're surrounded by warm water from the Gulf stream. However, rising sea levels would flood over that warm water and cause us to be surrounded by cooler water, resulting in a temperature drop.
Or so I heard several years ago.
*so several years ago, England was /warmer/ than usual?*
*and /now/ it's become colder?*
*or was that 'right now' bit meaning presently?*
(What do you call a fish made up of two sodium atoms?
2 na
XD )
*nice joke, Chloe ^.^*
nah. lol
Ayyyy
I dedicate this page to old friends and new. To the friends that we have known forever and will continue to know forever, to the friends that we have forgotten, to the friendships that have ended and we miss but are better off without, to the friendships that ended before their time. To those we have yet to meet, and to those we met yesterday whom we love as dearly as if we had known them since birth.
*didn't even realize we were that close to a new page*
*changes back into a human and waves at newcomers*
Why does most of the dialogue prompts I read have so much sarcasm? I don't even have that many sarcastic characters.
*thinks*
*keeps looking up prompts*
Hear hear! :)
(Hear hear
It hurts to laugh)
Hear hear
(Isn't here)
(Hear hear!)
Hey Lav, Fera, Chloe.
What's wrong, Chloe?
My god. Everyone's here.
Hey Storm! Hey Fabi!
(Kung fu the other night
Hurt all over...)
*dittos Kes' question*
Hi Moss and Jai!
*waves and offers cookies to everyone*
(Hey Kessy!)
*question now being invalid*
Ouch...
*offers an ice pack?*
@Chloe: :/ Feel better? I didn't know you did Kung Fu, tho, that's radical.
What's going on with everyone?
(*munches cookie*
Chloe :/ Exercise hurts.)
(Nothing much. Finished my art exam today which is.. Scary.)
I want a cookie.
Nice nice! How'd it go?
(Takes ice pack* thank you
I've done it for about a year and a half
Rp jai? I didn't wanna go last niiiight)
(*gives Kes a cookie*
Well, I have one sure fire A, one sure fire B..
I THINK my portrait grade will have improved now, so that might be a B now if I'm lucky.
I'm happy with my exam final piece
Overall I might get a B in art.)
Thanks! *eats the cookie happily*
Oh okay that's good! Congrats!
@Lav: Currently England's getting warmer. It'll probably keep getting warmer for a bit before getting colder.
@Jai: :) Good! Good luck. :)
Salve, Star

(Okay Chloe xD)
Tresha: Because I like smelling cookies..?
Michael: *looks at Alys*
