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. ^.~

@DepressedSoviet check your PMs
<.< I may have quietly stalked someone here to the interest check because I'm currently bored. Posting to let you know I'm lurking, at least. Tempted to bring out Amune and Jareth, minus any fantastical abilities. ...Except Amune studied aikido intensively, along with a mixed program for self-defense, and if you try to hurt her she will mess you up without any compunction. *frowns* I mean, it's not absurd? And she did start early? But that doesn't negate her skill. Her original base does have survival skills, but I don't see a good reason to give this version most of them. She was never /fond/ of toughing it, so that means there's little justification to have them. And with the freedom to kill people off if my people ever return and things get interesting again, that's kinda nice. ...Not sure how much cheesy appeals. Not sure how much probable death appeals. Will consider this. In the morning. Since it's...holy crud it's almost three am. I should be in bed. x.x *poof*

@Belle oh no, that sucks! *cuddles*
Welp, if she's in her bed, no way Max would stumble across her even if he /is/ deposited in Summer. So I'm leaving him offscreen for now.
@Belle He knows. Falk asked about her when the two leaders talked.

*gives you all the hugs and chocolate* No chocolate milk, sorry, but will this do?
@BlackPanther actually it doesn't specify. Given that there's no mention of her one way or the other, I simply assumed that your OOC post was correct. Particularly since Lyra is someone else's char.

@Belle I'm a bit confused as to why you think someone would forget a character. O.o
Amuné heard the tacit acknowledgement and smiled in return, some of the tension leaving her shoulders. She shook her head at the next comment, eyes unfocusing to look at a memory for a moment. "These hands have taken lives," she told him, holding them up in front of her with a wry smile. "I don't think it gets any more real than that. But a better fighter, that would be useful. I'm pretty far out of my depth, here." She said it without resentment; she'd not reached her current level of skill by refusing to learn when given the opportunity. "If I can learn to utilize my Sight more effectively, that'd be good too." The young lady's jaw worked silently. "But my mind...I can't. Not yet. Maybe not ever." Amuné couldn't hide the shudder that ran through her. "I'm sorry, I just...I'd try to counterattack. It's automatic." She took a deep breath, resettling herself. "I mean, you could text my...oh. No, I suppose you couldn't." A cell phone wasn't much good when there was a moon between her and the nearest cell tower. She sighed. "We'll have to figure something out."

When he put his hand on her shoulder, the Seer covered it with her own. She didn't mind staying so much -- indeed, she'd expected it. But her friend.... "Jareth will freak if he isn't back in time for his lab on Tuesday. He'll lose his scholarship if he doesn't keep his grades up." She frowned. "I only let him come at all because of a feeling I had. It's really not clear, but...I agree, he should stay. The problem will be convincing him. He won't like it." Amuné brushed a stray lock of hair out of her face and grimaced. "However, if it's leverage you're worried about, he's hardly the only one. My parents, my roommate, my friends at the Upstairs and on campus. It isn't possible to protect all of them. But..." The young woman's voice turned soft. "I can't say it wouldn't matter in a fight. Faced with that sort of decision, and time only to react...I don't know. But as ransom?" She shook her head. "Not an issue. After all...I know what happens if I accept." No matter how badly it hurt her, the teenager knew that her giving herself up in exchange wasn't the real concern. Her perception of the choices offered was very different. It was no exaggeration to say she'd die before she went willingly into captivity. If it was that or giving in, she had no doubt which she'd choose.

@theminorfall
Either way his small one will come with [Feoras]


Feoras' small one is still in summer


@.@ You're making me dizzy. Wherever Lyra is, that's where I wanna stick Max. ...And Lei, since she has to go with. I'm actually considering changing her bond, to give her a little more freedom, but we'll see.

@LadyRunic IT'S SJ TUCKER! *squee*
@Dulcet I have some life but not that much. I have something Christmas day, but probably will be on either morning or late evening. New Year...don't think I have anything. Even when I have stuff I pop on in the morning before heading out. Like today with work. ^.^ And I can cook ideas while I'm doing other things. <3
