You all are suddenly much scarier. People are scary, text written by people less so. Photos have proved you are People. Okay, I knew that... but I've been reminded. *points* Scary! Scaaaary!

*reads*

*outraged* Seven is NOT early! Five in the morning is early. Seven isn't!

...I'm kind of insane about what constitutes 'early' and what doesn't.

*sigh* Outrage over something ridiculous to be outraged about aside, I ... wish I had been able to go. *curses what she thinks of first, thus, her backpack, which has nothing to do with it* Why do I have to be the distance of the Atlantic from a lot of PPCers and the distance of a country from the rest! Meh.

However... yay! More Gathering reports! Well, report. Rejoice!

*is poked by her Politeness* Oh, yeah. Thanks be to hS for writing that. Thanks galore.

Random person: "Why! Why have you damned meeeeee?!"
Equally random god: "But it's a quaint damn!"
Random person: "SO?!"
Equally random god: "... um..."

I just cannot keep my gods out of things. They're like cats. Oh wait, a lot of them are cats.

*snickers* Quaint damn! Quaint damn! DTE could take it, just for that.

*wanders off, still exclaiming: "rustic! Curse! Hahahaha!"*

I can has microphone! And it was only eight bucks!

It sounded kinda crappy in the speakers when I tested it, but I went and downloaded Audacity, too, so if the quality really is poor I should be able to figure out how to fix it.

~Neshomeh, excited about her new toy. (PPC Christmas Carols this winter? Oh yeah.)

...to say that I've seen worse? The recent flood of the C.S. Lewis section has many, many, many.... *sighs*

*applauds*

Ooh, a rustic little curse word!

Today is a day of laughter, and I just can't stop.

Specifically, the first part is done (although it'll need revising). Probably... oh, a quarter of it. And I /do/ know what's going to happen. And believe me, I want to be done with it, too.

I didn't have the idea back when he acquired the thing -- at the time it was just another in a line of sparklies -- but I know the heavy foreshadowing in DragonRider was deliberate. I'm not sure how long before that... possibly around the time I wrote the Woodsprite mission, or a bit before.

Congratulations!

*grins* I love the Fëanor/Silmarillion references.

You can't leave us all in suspense for another 92 years!

If you attempt to do that, I foresee much hS-poking. With extreme prejudice. And possibly pointy objects.

Somebody is going to have fun with this one:

After a while the travelers came to a river with a quaint little damn built on it.

Emphasis mine. Enjoy, folks!

~Neshomeh, snickering incessantly.

But poor Dafydd couldn't resist the Shiny.

Incidentally, hS, how long did you know what you were going to do with the ring before you started C*l*br**n? Back as far as the Pern mission? As far as getting the ring?

~Neshomeh

And has there, since, been a new division formed for analyzing Suvian devices to prevent another accident like that?

It ruins all my cliffhangers.

That was amazing. Most brilliant job. The ending was...well, frankly quite epic. It made me scared for a moment there before I ran to check with the wiki. Very nicely done, and I congratulate you on the completion of this gargantuan enterprise.

Whoa. Big words...

As soon as I get After Midnight done... which at this rate will be around the turn of the century, but still.

'Tis a far, far, better thing he did. Happy retirement, Daffyd!

It all sounds pretty good, apart from the constant breeze. I'm kind of glad you did manage to say that sentence, though, because I'd have cracked up even more trying to get through it. And I crack up very easily in ridiculous situations. As the video proves- I think just about all the off-camera giggling was me.

... that I managed to say the sentence "and then one of the orcs striped her and then he raped her and then laura said 'go away you bastard'" in public. Like I said (I think you can hear me say it on the film, but I hate the sound of my voice on tape so I haven't watched it), "If it wasn't for the random rape scene, I'd think this was written by a six-year-old."
