They say it's about the journey, not the destination. This is true of many things. Pizza delivery is not one of them.

TFW you know what you want to happen but the words aren't cooperating. Why is plot suddenly so much harder to write?

So ded. Cannot brain. Just one massive poorly coordinated and balance-lacking headache. But don't send help. I don't want to people either. X.x

Glad to see I'm not the only follower of Lord Cato, god of wisdom, on this most auspicious Superb Owl Sunday.

Bio

I am an adult, though I don't usually act like it. I'm a voracious reader, and not overly picky about books. I am artistic in a variety of areas, including music, drawing, writing, and sculpting. I have a minor obsession with dragons, and love the color violet. Fantasy is my preferred genre, be it past, future, urban...as long as it has a fantasy flavor to it. I also like scifi, mystery, and some horror. I am crazy, and I like tormenting my characters. But I don't bite...much. ^.~

@Ojo chan 42 O.o I am not completely clear on how Clyde missed the fact that Eleanor was seeing a kelpie -- surely Clyde or his sister would have noticed some hint? Laira's kelpie father leaving because of guilt is an interesting twist, but if the child was already conceived wouldn't that make her merely a seasonborn, instead of a full kelpie (conceived as a half-blood, thus a seasonborn, and then magic turned her mother into a seasonborn, but I don't know if it'd change the child)? Not sure how that works, maybe @LadyRunic can tell me. Additionally, I thought changing a human to a seasonborn took a good bit of time -- and it's done in groups, as well. I'm not sure how well the timing fits there, though it is a neat solution to the problem of Clyde needing to overlook certain things.
@Prince of Seraphs Oh, best wishes to you, then. I know that can be quite hectic.
@Mogtaki@Vena Sera Well, no. But the magic itself was very minor, so what they'll see is an upset child. Maybe she doesn't like what she was given to eat. She didn't flail, just push away, nor yell, and if she was overheard a "no" isn't very specific. *grins* Besides, you can't expect /that/ much sense from a child all the time.
@chukklehed To be fair, some of them have weapons...and one of them has precious little sense. =P
When Ethan said she was glad of Cecil's return, the girl nodded emphatically, though she still said nothing. She was still scared, and having trouble getting past that. Food sounded good, though, and made for a welcome change of subject. Amuné squeaked in surprise when Ethan picked her up, hands grabbing for him when her feet were quite suddenly no longer on the ground. But the action earned him a sheepish smile. She'd been startled, that was all. For all that she trusted him, he was still a new friend. Displays like that, while not unwelcome, were not expected either.

She agreed wholeheartedly with the bossy princess when she took Ethan's mug away. He was already acting drunk, he should know better than to have any more. For sure he would regret it in the morning. The town drunk back home always complained bitterly if he had to be up and about before noon. Her mother said it served him right, even though she didn't refuse him a draught to ease the hangover, but neither did she spare him a clearly unwelcome lecture each time he wheedled one from her.

But when the Dimuran approached Amuné she pulled away, her expression turning into a scowl. Ethan could say what he liked, but Nymira hadn't apologized as far as she knew and Amuné hadn't forgiven the woman. Even worse was what the lady said. Magic? Here? Where everyone could see it?! "No!" The girl's eyes widened in shock and fright, and she shoved herself backwards so forcefully that she toppled her chair right over, yelping as she went over with it. Chair and child landed in a heap on the floor, and only Wyth's quick reactions kept him from being part of the pile. He was at his girl's side immediately, nosing at her to make sure she was alright and to reassure her that nothing was the matter just then.
@AlexStarsion That was very well written. Nice to see another side of Zander. <3
@Belle >certain character
Did you mean: ALL OF THEM

*giggles* I've not yet gotten into ASoIaF/GoT. Right now I'm finally watching Firefly (bad geek, I know. ^.^; ) AND IT IS AMAZING. I was in love within the first few minutes, and it just keeps getting better.
@LadyRunic [s]Ooh, Falk's inspiration, eh~?[s] Whoops, misread. It's getting late. >.< I like the guy from the Coldfire trilogy. As my vague memory frames it, a very dark and somewhat tragic villain. I think he was a monster, but I can't recall. I love the characters you love to hate and enjoy hating.

Unfortunately, right now Falk merely bothers me. Gotta work a bit harder, sweetie~ =P

Sini: Don't encourage him. Or his person.
@LadyRunic Good point, thank you. ^.^
@BlackPanther Hee~ Honestly, of all the emotions, rage can be one of the most damaging. ^.^ But Sini's more worried about how his actions will be received by Winter. =P
