So I see Bob posted *eyes the bunny* and mentioned the plot crab leaving his summer job from Disneyland.
After a recent trip to Disneyland I noticed that wait shocking the Plot Crab was actually missing from the Pirate’s Ride.
With Plot Crab
Without Plot Crab
So where is Plot Crab – it’s to early for Crab Season.
Which means he’s lurking in the house.
*Cue scary music*
So Bj is screeching around that she finished Chapter 6 of Evolution. *eyeroll* as if she couldn’t have done it without me.
Anyway! She only has Chapter 7 & 8 to go, and basically gave me a challenge to ‘bring it on’. Well at least I’m not going to be so evil that I’ll add chapters to Evolution. Mainly because I’m looking forward to tormenting her with the next Arc *cackles evilly*, but doesn’t mean I’m going to toss a few side bunnies her way.
*looks over bunny pen*
Hmm lets see there’s the Italian – wait he’s still go his main story in the works and Bob 2 may actually try and kill me if I make him work with Dan Brown much longer
Ohh there are some Vegas bunnies running a casino in the living room *picks one up and grins* I’ll set this one loose.
*watches bunny run off to play*
Oh and it looks like the Plot Crab has come home from his summer job at Disneyland and he looks like he’s brought a few friends.
Release the Crabs!!!
*shifty eye* No that wasn’t said in a brogue accent!
HA! That should keep her busy for a while!! Teach her to challenge me!
I saw what Bob and Alien had to say about pushing The Boss and Gil about the writing – on the one hand, yay! new stuff to do – I’m actually a little bored to tell the truth. On the other hand, oy vey! the work I’ll have to do! If I’m lucky, it’ll take some time for everything to cross my desk and it’ll only come a bit at a time. If not…well, I’ve always worked well under pressure. ::checks list again:: *headdesk*
I forgot to say – love that inspiration pic. ::stares:: Really. I like it a lot. 😀
*hops in with shades and a towel*
Hello, everyone. I saw that Bob was talking about what he was doing to torment BJ, and I thought I’d give you the inside scoop on what kind of torture I have in store for my owners.
First, there’s the next story for Border Clan, entitled Say Goodnight, Not Goodbye. It takes place in the early summer of 2006 and involves many of Border’s members. I’ve been jumping on top of Gil’s head daily to get more and more words written, and it’s coming along swimmingly if I may say so.
I’ve also started my annual poking for stories from Shep for Oceania Clan, most notably from the H50 and NCIS LA characters. She has no idea about the teeth-sharpening appointment I had a couple of days ago just especially for her. *cackles evilly and prepares to bite*
*coughs* Okay, where was I?
Oh, yes. I also have many fun things planned for Gil for the latter half of the year.
I’ve decided that Don and Charlie Eppes need to come out and play, and their story has to be told, and on the other side of the country, the men and women of the BAU will find themselves in a little bit of a windstorm soon enough.
Daniel Boone and David Crockett are getting most insistent that their own stories need to be told, and they’re tied up with the stories of other characters within Border, most notably Chris Larabee and Jason Doyle, who will be making his Border debut in Say Goodnight, Not Goodbye. He’s been around for some time, but had been busy elsewhere until recently. I fully plan to brand my taser and threaten her until she begins the detailed outlines for these stories.
I prodded Gil’s short timestamp that takes place after The Darkest Hour and manipulated it into becoming an at least 10k word fic. *rubs paws together with evil glee* That should teach her to ever think she can write anything short. There is also a timestamp dealing with Dom, Brian, and their new Mate Ronon that takes place just before and during Evolution that I think needs to be written, just as soon as Evolution is complete. She will be hearing from me about this one soon.
I have many other bunnies that I can lob at Gil and Shep’s heads at any given moment, when they least expect it, for so many characters. I’m also conspiring with the one I call Shadowdancer, the graphic muse that lurks in the dark recesses of the home, making her presence known without ever being seen. We have big plans for Gil. She has no idea what we’re planning, but it should be fun when she finds out.
Until then, a small snippet from Say Goodnight, Not Goodbye….
His arms flailed about for a moment before he managed to find purchase on her shoulders, and then he tried to shove her away, a movement that was as ineffectual as he feared. Still he continued to struggle against her, becoming more and more lightheaded, his meager attack on her lessening, until he couldn’t move his arms anymore.
His vision darkened until it was as if he were looking through tiny pinholes, and he could vaguely hear someone speaking, but his drifting mind couldn’t latch onto any of the words. So this is death, he thought to himself.
Then a splash of warm, metallic liquid splashed into his mouth briefly, making him gag, until his body kicked in and drank down what was offered. His mind remained in that vague nothingness until the liquid was gone, and he faded into the black.
While Bj is distracted with actual work (she had this theory that she has to work for a living and not devote all of her time to me… What is up with that?!) Anyway. While she’s distracted I figure I would give a sneak peak into my evil plans.
Evolution. It’s been a slow process, I blame the Damn Italian while ignoring the fact I was the one who came up with that storyline.
Evolution. Yes I’m getting to that. Chapter 6 is in the final stages which means only two more chapters to go!! Which is good cause I have evil plans and ideas that need attention.
There’s the IMF Bunny that I’ve outfitted with full gear including harness and wire, ear piece to communicate to the Yogurt Eating Bunny From Hell (or so Bj calls him), a tricked out bow and arrows, and the Mission Impossible theme song that plays as he hovers over Bj.
Then there’s the next story in The Fisherman Series. As of the moment Plot Crab is working his summer job at the Pirates Ride at Disneyland – when he gets done torturing the Tourista’s he should be back tormenting … working with Bj to get that story done.
James Longworth is demanding his story – I’m not sure why he thinks he gets priority but he’s a snarky bastard and sneaky. And that Mate of his even more sneaky. I can admire that!
Then there are the small bunnies that I leave laying around for Bj to trip over at the most inconvenient moments. *grins wickedly*
Snippet Teaser (Because my kid Bob 2 learned being an evil tease from me)
“The problem with you.” The sound of sirens could he be heard in the distance as smoke bellowed out of the office building. “You have no faith in humanity. Theirs or yours.”
The next time Speed makes a suggestion that there should be something in Sylum involving a book, a film, and enough research to be able to do a guided tour around Rome with my eyes shut and my paws tied behind my back..
…I’m moving to Rome.
Teaser – unedited (because I’m evil and y’all need to learn to live with that!):
Saint Peter’s Square.
They had to be close to the end.
They hit another gate.
Heavier.
Dustier.
Also unlocked.
They were inside the city boundary itself, surely?
The noise outside faded off a little.
Still they ran.
A sharp turn to the right.
And without warning the Passetto simply ended.
A thick wall of riveted iron blocked their way.
Nick slapped his palms on it.
“No way! Not after this!!” he cried, scrabbling around for a handle, a switch or a release mechanism of some kind that would give them access.
He felt like a rat in a laboratory maze, facing one too many puzzles before a wrong decision blew his constituent atoms into nothingness.
“Wait! Wait, wait!!” Langdon realised what they were facing, and totally understood the fury Nick was experiencing. “Un Modo Portale! A one way portal. Architects call it a Senza Chiave.”
A keyless door.
For total security from the outside.
It was perfectly smooth.
No hinges.
No knobs.
No entry.
A surge of utter panic hit both Vampires square in the chest.
“It only opens one way,” the Professor explained, “on the other side!”
‘Demons and Angels’ – by Timothy Quinn, coming soon to Sylum Clan.
Graphic Gecko Here!!!
Earlier this week there was a blog post on Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. The music is just as inspirational..
*looks around*
I’m dropping Linkin Park’s Powerless here for Bj – there’s a video waiting to happen with this song. Though the one made isn’t half bad!!
*uploads video and scurries away*
*rubs paws together*
I see my clones and minions are filtering in *cackles*
You want to know who runs this joint – keep watching and you’ll see how we rule Sylum!!
Hi All.
Beta Bob (?) Checking in. I’m going to assume [do NOT start] that someone will point out where to go and what to do around here. ‘Cause I think I got lost in making a post…
Hm. Off the bat, I’m wondering how to make changes in some of the things around here. I’ve spotted a typo or two…
Is there a manual somewhere?
*scurries in and looks around*
OK. There’s Bob the evil one, Bob 2 and Alien driving their respective counterparts crazy with odd inspirations. So they’re not quite ready for me yet.
Gives me more time to look around here.
*scurries away to create havoc*
*hops around, looking around new home*
*looks at owner*
*poofs*
*evil cackle*
I’m sending this message remote. At the moment its Crab Season and the Bering Straight is cold as hell. I’m doing my best to help the crabbers, and avoid Mrs. Chippy.
When I get back into port I’ll be seeking out a few writers to discuss story lines.
Crab out!
Graphic Gecko here!!!
I’m only stopping by long enough to drop this vid off to poke at Bj…
Come on you know you want to!
Busy. Busy.
Busy busy.
And did I mention I was busy?
Tim is totally going to hate the Angels and Demons movie and just about anything associated with Dan Brown by the time we’re done with this but you know what?
It fits too perfectly into the Sylumverse for it not to go in there, and now is the time to write it because it ties up threads that need to be knotted before we can move onto the next thing.
It’s tedious, annoying and painful to write because it’s taking elements of the movie script *eyeroll* (still can’t believe that writer got paid so much money for such a shitty ass script!) and elements of the book *more dramatic eyeroll* which in and of itself contains plot holes big enough to drive and entire fleet of UPS trucks through.
So, here at Sylum we correct these little errors, these momentary lapses of confidence, these faux pas moments, these ‘let’s make the good guy the bad guy because no one will ever see it coming’ nightmare plot twists from hell that make you want to headdesk ’til next Tuesday, and we put them to rights.
End of story.
Full stop.
What’s next…?
