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?

(Thanks ^.^)
(bear bear! )
Mark: *rolls his eyes, gently dabbing her nose before holding a new tissue was to her nose*
Clock you; thank you
Mark: Clumsy
Clocky; sorry..
Mark: Don't be.
*kisses her cheek*
You should get dressed.
Clocky; do j have to?
Mark: *laughs*
Well I'm going into the kitchen to make food.
Clocky: okay *chirps*
(realizes it auto corrected to bear wth?)
Mark: So, you can either come with in your beautiful birthday suit or maybe get some underwear on
(xD)
Clocky:... Underwear is it
Mark: Thought so
(when have I ever used bear in a sentence phone? )
(Hehe XD )
Clocky: *goes to underwear drawer*
(Possibly.)
Mark: *leans against the wall, watching her*
Clocky: *puts on dressing gown*
Mark: Hmmm..
*grins*
That looks nice.
Clocky: it does?
Mark: It does.
*slips an arm around her waist, leading her into the kitchen*
*hoping they don't bump into anyone..*
Clocky: *smiles and walks*
Mark: *walks with her*
Tea or Coffee?
*a black bird is sat on the kitchen windowsill*
Clcky: coffee please
Mark: Sugar? Milk?
*starts boiling the kettle, putting a teaspoon of coffee in two cups*
*frowns at the bird*
Clocky: a little bit of sugar, no milk please
(Yawns* bedtime
Nos da!)
(Nos da, sleep well!)
( *still has absolutely zero clue how she gets to sleep so early, the only way I can do that is i've not slept for like 3 days straight and just crash )
@Keiron: If you went to sleep regularly it'd be much easier for you to sleep. Well, that's how it works with the general poplace.
( I do sleep regularly just when I' tired so there is no routine to when I'm sleeping sometimes it's 11 sometimes it's 4am sometimes its not for 3 days but thats usually coz I need to finish homework )
back from UK Bboy championships. Did not get into top 16. But hey, here's the link to my prelim performance.
@Keoron: Exactly. If you did it the same time every night you'd be better. I used to sleep the same time every night for years and I had no sleeping issues I can remember (like every night I would be able to get to sleep apart from very rare occasions), but this past year I've had less of a schedule and I've had so much more trouble sleeping.
hello star.
hello noelle. Why the long face?
(i'd be better? I'm pretty good now with spontaneous :P )
My sleeping schedule's been fucked for a long time now. I can sleep whenever i want to. Nothing really bothers me XD
Um
...
Nothing
Okay.
[offers Noelle some hugs]
Thanks Fabi..
(11:11 Make a wish)
(*wishes* )
*makes a wish about a bigger penis* *no, that'd be too cliche* *a bigger vagina* *yes, yes that is good* *contemplates on what the hell he is doing right now* *Can't come up with anything* *goes back to watching popping videos*
( see now you've put it, it'll never come true :P )
...
that's why i didn't put bigger penis as my wish :P
I
Finished
My book.
And it was good
Really good
I'm glad you enjoyed it, Dugglyn
:/
I uh
I'm
...
I'm still depressed
Thanks :)
It's just, after I finish a really good book and it's the last one in the series I don't know what to do? It happens every time >.<
But it does mean I really liked the book!
And I've found if I just start reading another book it helps.
Have you read any good books recently, Noelle? (Or actually anyone else who may be on!)
:((
*hugs Noelle*
*wishes she could heal Noelle's depression*
*but knows it's not that wasy*
**easy
Thank you, Dugglyn
No, I haven't. Again, depression.. I don't have a lot of joy... Stuff
Yeah :/
Sorry.
I'm not a good conversationist at the moment
That's okay, I'm horrible at making conversation any time XD
also we're driving home right now so I'm kind of reading and kind of checking here but I get sucked into books really easily so I'd be distant anyway.
It's okay, I'm writing music, so don't worry
Ooh, that's cool!
*nod* For a project
*checks in*
*whispers to the Dugglyn*
The Ever Afters: Of Giants and Ice
Awesome book series, last book is already out, and there are four.
In case you hadn't already read it.
*leaves hugs and tea*
*checks out*
Nice!
What's it about?
Oooh, thanks Lav!!
Also, I read the first chapter of your story but I haven't read the second yet which is why I want commented yet. But the first chapter was awesome!!
Kefka vs Giygas:
KEFKA:
Back for more, fear my presence
I've reached true transcendence
forsee this: Giegue grovels as I sing forth my vengeance
I hate HAte HATE YOU!
Your end comes: Beyond Chaos is
A forsaken fetus awakened by a finer final boss
Life...Dreams...You, these things I am going to destroy
Listen to the voices: they pray for the death of this annoyance!
Static screen
Make you scream!
You're doomed with a fatal wound
So don't cry for the mother, who should've aborted you
GIYGAS2:
The embodiment of evil's on the beat
to truly leave you beat
You're EARTHBOUND for a second defeat
Now isn't that sweet?
I feel g-good, nigh victorious in fact
You see, you cannot grasp the true form of Giygas's attack
Quit your whining, pokey bitch
And you say that I am fetal?
It's not right, not right, that you're pitifully feeble
Heartlessly rip an angel's wing
As Seraphim sing soft
Beware the infinite darkness
That shall consume a false god.
It's a melodic composition project.
Ugh I love it so much
So
...
I hate my body
So much
Good morning.
not as good as the best, gemmy :P
( *hugs gemmy to heat her up*)
that moment when you want to eat, but cannot get up to make anything for yourself.
(That is why I always feed you properly :P -cuddles- )
framk XD hey, genna :P
*hugs gemmy as well*
FUCCKK YEEAAH!
a girl in my class got into Harvard
im going to jump out a window
Am not getting the hug back? :(
As long as I get into uni, I don't care what uni it is XD
Cuz he ain't got nobody to listen...
I AM BLUE DAB BA DEE BA DE DAEE DA BA DE-A DABBA DEE DABBA DA
( I'm assuming this is treasure planet and if so I'm going to also leave a link to the full movie :P
Movie )
( I know :P :3 nah ko -smiles and hugs her tightly back- )
(Heyyy)
(hai *waves with a massive grin yet not moving from between her arms*)
(How is you ?)
(superb! you?)
(I am sooo tired )
(howcome?
)
(I don't know)
@Chloe: Ugh I hate it when that happens.
(@Noelle don't jump out the window!
*waves and relaxes*)
(I better go to do homework now!)
(hows you two?
drink some coffee chloe ? )
(* loves how everyone disappears * -secretly cries ... with laughter- )
Sorry. Was eating tea.
( *pretends to ignore you for pride* )
. . . How does one pretend to ignore someone? *curious*
hellu again
( *like this* by actually not ignoring you but making you thinking I am )
yeh lol :P
*the moment when you make a sexual innuendo and it's not being appreciated, then you realize that none of your jokes are being appreciated, as a matter of fact, the person you're talking to doesn't even like you but they keep saying they do, even though it'd be weird for anyone to like you, at which moment it all becomes clear: You'd still be better off being dead, even if your serotonin levels peaked the last day(though was still way below any level of comprehension for humans).
( *appreciates frank and his humour* )
thanks bruh :P Other than you, nobody really does XD
( and Gem )
( -squirms- ahhh :D :3 hehehe -kisses her neck- )
We had affirmations in Christian Life today. I always liked doing those.
But
I just
It frustrates me to no end that she got in. I tried harder than she, sacrificed more, and wanted it more
:D awwww, that's cute guys :p
welp, life is a bitch, noelle.
(*stumbles in and lands on face*)
you ok ?
It's okay. I mean . . . well, life is unfair. But life also has its ups and its downs, and just because you didn't get this up doesn't mean you won't get further ups late in the future. And she might have a terrible time while sge's there - you just don't know.
And this may or may not comfort you, but one day, we will all die and be forgotten, and no human alive will know what Harvard is and maybe there'll even be no humans alive. Point being . . . things like Harvard may seem like they matter now, but in the long scheme of things, it's all pretty irrelevant.
(Apologies if that doesn't comfort you. It comforts me, so I thought I might as well try it).
You may have lost this battle, but the war of life still goes on and there will be other battles you'll win and other battles you'll lose. It's annoying, but it's not the end of the world. Life will move on and one day you'll look back on this and it . . . well, idk, maybe you'll still be annoyed by it, but you'll have lined an entire life that was unique to you and there's no way of knowing if your life would be better if you went to Garvald.
( what have I done btw thats intimidating this time? )
(*feels brain dead after writing essay*)
:/thanks Star, Fera..
( *is blocked from the minecraft server...* would like to know what I did.... to have "intimidatingbehaviour"
I mean I can be... but when was I ? was this when I was comforting Gem and "making depression a game" )
@Chloe: This is why I chose physics over essays. :P
(thats another fucking 15 hours down the drain ughhhhhhhhhhhh
* can't fucking stand people * *means little to extreme offense*
*is rightfully pissed*
-goes to see how much it is for his own fucking server-)
(... Calm k
I chose two, essay heavy subjects
I am an idiot)
Can I help Chloe?
*nods at K*
Best to not go below 6-7 ish though, otherwise you'll be tempted to go further :P
( *nah coz it was probably the cunt thats on it right now* I know she can. I also know anyone else could undo it I also know I could undo it and go into the fking script and ban everycunt making it usuless but nah I'm just going to be pissed and go elsewhere coz fuck people)
(Thank you for the offer Noelle ^.^
I've just spend ages trying to find a metaphor in Oedipus that my lecturer mentioned to use in our essay
However we haven't gotten that far yet
I've spent ages just trying to find it and I am unsuccessful...)
*nods at k* *smirks a tad bit*
May I suggest googling it? Typically the result has the act and scene and stuff attached to it
(Okay, I'll look
Thank you ^.^)
I literally cannot wait! Your the bestest (I know that's not a word) writer EVER! You have such awesome skills!! I'm REALLY looking forward to the next demon road book! American Monsters����������
(And THAT little blip in my conscious existence is why I don't nap, because I wind up asleep for hours and wake up in a negative mood.)
@Jai: Omg ikr
(Ugh. Yey.
*light goes out*
*wifi does not*
*makes mental note to adult Jaimie to have at least one lap for if a light bulb dies during the night and shops are closed*)
@Jai: :(
My dad tends to keep spare light bulbs for just in case. He's like that.
heh, I don't mind the time of the day I go to sleep. I used to.
*hopes the nap was at least ok*
Lol, my dad keeps a fucking engineering complex in our house. Anything can be replaced/fixed at any time. He has heat guns, a plasma cutter, all sizes of screwdrivers, nails, battery chargers (For cars), circuits etc.
I use candles... Lots of candles. They are pret
pretty, you mean? :P
No, pret!
(I can't light matches or a lighter or anything that makes fire..
But candles are beautiful and I wish I could light them! :(
Oh well. One day fire shall be my pet.)
oHHHHHHH. XD
really jai? What do you mean you can't?
(I mean I just.. Can't.
I would say I'm scared but that's not quite it..
It's infuriating.
I can sit with a match out, pressed against the sandpaper on the box, running it back and forth but the moment I try do it quick enough to light it I just freeze up..
Same with lighters, I can do it so it won't light but the momemoment I try to seriously make a flame I freeze up.)
hmmm...have you tried with help? Like someone holding your hand, and lighting it with you? :)
It's ok...
btw, it's not that uncommon, I used to be like that bout 10 years ago. You just have to get used to it :)
(I can't say I have, people are usually too busy to just stand with me and hold my hand while I try light a match/lighter..
I mean atm it doesn't affect me much except for being unable to light candles and inscent sticks.. But when I'm older if I have an oven/stove Ike mums old one and dad's current one then I'm screwed because they always had to use a lighter or match to ignite them.
It's something that's really annoying because I know it's simple, the action isn't hard and yet I still can't do it. Lots of people don't struggle with this and I shouldn't be struggling with it and I'm embarrassed whenever I have to ask for help. I've only ever lit a lighter once and I dropped it immediately. I wanted to make toast for dads birthday once and ended up crying on the floor holding a match box and a match because for about an hour I'd been trying to light this one match.. It's really infuriating and kinda upsetting.)
awwww. It's ok, don't be embarrassed :) Most people have something that they can't do, even though it's simple for most others. Try keeping your hand steady and focus on the objective-lighting whatever it is you're trying to light :)
I'd help but you're not in the neighborhood XD
(I'll try. I'm gonna have to learn eventually. Just, you know, maybe in a fireproof setting..)
:(
I took chemistry and got good at it
hehe yeah. Well in case it doesn't work out, I am always here as a back up plan XD
(* is totally not a pyro*
-totally didn;t have their gas fire taken away because he burned too many things in it -)
totally not, k :P
Yeah...
night jai :) *hugs back*
(*hugs noelle and fera* thanks guys :)

I watched him draw near
------------------My dear
I watched with joy as
----the winds of fate brought him close

For a blistering moment distance was none
Proximity all we had
But flames swelled and my dear fell
------------------------away from me
--To the arms of another
Beautiful is she
----With her sirens call
Her strong embrace

Note: the '-'s are because blogger doesn't like structure. They're just gaps.)
There we go. Sleep time! Night!)
(*facepalms because it compressed the '-'s*)
@Jai: Awww . . . I'm more unafraid of fire than most girls I work with in chemistry practicals, because my dad's always been really unafraid of fire and his attitude has sent me the message that fire is okay abd probably won't hurt you . . .
If I ever get the opportunity I'm perfectly prepared to sit and hold your hand while you try to light stuff . . . Plus I might sit with you and light a load of candles and like keep running my fingers through the flames and setting fire to stuff, because I reckon if you see other people be close to fire and be unafraid and be unharmed it might help your brain accept it as normal . . well it would work for me so if your brain works similarly to mine it might help - and if not: nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Sadly I don't live near enough to you to just sort of come round. Sigh.

I'm a fan..
I once did that shape for a poem
So I'm a fan
(*hugs star too* Thanks :)
OKAY! Stupid poem sorted now. Looks less open and nice and spaced out with the ~ but I needed the structure for my sanity and memory.)
u'z not asleep yet? :P
(Thanks Noelle :)
I'll write it down somewhere in the morning if I find time while getting stuff sorted for school. *nods*
Night guys *hugs!*)
Goodnight
The piece I composed is quite good
what piece?
A music composition for my class
It is quite pretty
nice :) what genre?
It's... Piano
I love...piano :P
I used to play it for 4 years.
Ah.
Well.
I've played it since I was four
nice. didn't like the constant stress that was put on me by my teacher. wasn't that good at it either.
My teacher used to make me cry, so.
It's a piano thing.
...
Yeah
I love my piano teacher...
I've been playing since I was 5 and while I wanted to play I was terrified for my first lesson but my piano (and now harp) teacher is very non-tradition, instead of learning scales and how to read music I learned by ear which is cool. And I just kind of figured out how read music and how to play all the scales along the way.
I've always been taught by her so idk what this is like compared to other teachers but for me personally it worked really well and I enjoy it.
Also because recently she's been helping me figure out Brandi Carlile songs :)))))))
and then I figured one out myself!
Noelle, do you think you could send me a recording of your song? If you're too busy/don't want to/can't that's fine :)
Sure
*didn't get much writing done today*
8048 and my story is getting more and more confusing...
*is going to give up on word count*
*really wants to rewrite the dang thing*
*glares at story, as if that would make it cooperate*
It's not going how I want it to. Do other people get that feeling when they're writing?? It sucks.
I want to scrap it. This is probably my worst draft so far. I wanna scrap it. ;-;
Everyone feels like their own story I'd more shitty than it is, Lav. :)
Yeah, but I've written this thing so many times that I forgot what /I/ know and what my readers know and how to put in details and where and asdfghjkl *explodes*
*plus it's almost 1 and I should probably sleep*
@Lav: :(
If you just keep writing, you can edit it to streamline it later.
(Watching Jeremy Kyle
11 year old brother asked what sexual contact and sexual intercourse means XD )
What did you say?
You should've said "contact of a sexual nature" and "intercourse of a sexual nature." :P
(I just said intercoursw was sex and contact was anything before sex )
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=cJcrObMSKGg

Yeah, i love that video XD
@Chloe: Those are pretty good answers. :) :)

DEREK YOU NEED TO READ THIS
ALSO, SPOILERS FOR BOOK NINE OF SKUKDUGGERY PLEASANT
SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS
Get it? Good
So
Derek
Oh Derek
It's been over s year since I finished the last book. And I demand a story. Or a short story. See u have a whatsapp group and we all there agree that we want a story(SPOILERS START HERE) where Valkyrie and her parents live after they discover magic. What convocation they have. How Melissa tears up and Desmond trying to hide his tears. Her possibly teaching Alice and possibly her parents? Also furgus admits to the parents about his magic and learns from Valkyrie.( that would be freaking EPIC).
So please, anything, short story. Long story. Or even a reply here or by email( school email as mine is far too embarrassing) dany.elhawari@eastwoodcollege.com saying what happens after.
Also in case of copy rights or such stuff,
I hereby declare I shall not write a story using the ending you will hopefully give me privately or here. All I want is the end of the end. Just need a peace of mind
Also if anyone wants to be in a Skulduggery Pleasant whatsapp group, small as it may be with 6 people, feel free to email me with your number and country code. I personally love getting new people
