Reviews on Reviews: The 9th Race

Once again it's that time! Sorry for no other bloggings, been real busy with essay.Since I didn't do it last week I'll put the two together.

Holly Marie Fowl:
Chapter 13: OME i love the part at the end! Teehee.Fantastic job! :D:D:D:D:D~HMF

Agreed! I love that chapter! It was fun to write!

Chpt12: Ice? Or is it a seashell?Great story! (sucks that she got her memory back, though)See you next week!~HMF

Sorry about that! If you are talking about a riddle a few weeks ago then you are right! YES! It really really really sucks! Why? You'll find out!

AyameAkako:
Chpt 13: Great job on this chapter :D Awaiting for your next

I hope you enjoy this one! Thanks!

Chpt 12: HORRAY GREAT JOB Please update again!

;) Will do!

Alwaysbtheir:
Chp 13: funny chapt!update soon!

I update every week (ignoring last week) Thanks for reviewing!

Liris:
Chp 13: Scales.Holly's hair is auburn, which is a shade of red, not brown, but other than that i like. Artemis and Foaly should never be in a room alone with Holly - they'd drive her crazy in minutes. Nice job, and update soon!

Auburn is a kind of brown and red in my book, sorry. I do agree that Foaly and Artemis should never be left in the same room with Holly! This just proves the point! Thanks for reviewing! You got it right! Congrats!

Grimoire Heart:
Chp 13: SCALES~~!x3I love this chappy too~xDSounds like something Arty&Foaly would do, prattling off their geniosities (not a word) like that~~

I think that they would do that for sure! I got what you meant by 'geniostites'!! Right on the riddle

ilex-ferox:

Chp13:The Swiss flag is a white cross on a red ground and the German flag is black, red and yellow.

Sorry! I'll fix that later!

Hazelcloud:
Chp13: Umm..is it a 'scale'? That was a amusing chapter. Especially when they were listing all of the flags!

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Sillybookworm:
Chp 12: Hurry up and update!

Don't worry! I did!

That's it folks! See yeah next week!

Been Busy, Been Busier

Been busier though, but this week (last too) was crazy with dance/school/and just...just...family stuff. I know that you will understand. ;)

Nothin' changed, Dragon got the chapter for updating (CHAPTER 14! WOOT! 14 more to go!) half way though the craziness! LOL though now things are really going to pick up the pace!


Reading a wonderful book...It's 'The Legend of Drizzt, Book 4, The Crystal Shard' By R.A. Salvatore. Amazing! Utterly amazing. A tad gross in parts but what am I suppose to say to that? I really don't mind.The picture bellow is of the first book: Homeland..staring Drizzt (the main character) and his ally Guenhwyvar (what a name!)

...
Just to let you know I wrote the word, prologue
yes, I am writing again
and no, I won't tell you what it's about

Grey Parrots

This guy made my day!



He speaks so clearly! Here is another video of another grey parrot talking without the words scrolling. Ps. There is more videos of this sorta thing if you click the link after the video is over



this might help, this is what the owner of the video noted: This is our African Grey, Sybil, telling us what she thinks of the world.
This is a selection of her vocabulary...Beneath is a brief transcript of what she says, and a reason she might say it:


Parrot power!
Do you know the way to San Hose? (lalalalalala)
What?
Sybil! (her name)
Who's a pretty girl?
Pippers....? (One of our cockatiels)
Boop! (Our other cockatiel)
Shhhh!
Shut Up!
I got...blue / bird feet! (she had a blue perch that rubbed off blue chalk on her feet, when we discovered we had an African Blue instead of a Grey we decided the perch had to go!)
Drumming (Clicking in time while headbobbing...I'm a drummer, she gets this from me!)
Want chip?
Step up
Wolfwhistle
New bird smell! (What we say when we kiss her on the back)
Chick-chick-chick-chick-chickaleeboo! (random saying we taught her)
Budgie Birds! (She likes 'B' words, we're lucky she didn't use 'b*tch' in this video!)
Kiss? (followed by kissing sound)
Sybil, (will) you be(ing) good?
Hi Boopers
Chickle...
Helloooo
Who's a good girl?
Where's my dinner?
Whatchout! (From the Simpsons movie..whatchout! She is a spiderrrrbird!)
Birdbirdbird (another saying of ours)
Chip?
What happened?
Sybillll
Screeching like the cockateils (You can't miss this)
Come on...come on
Budge!
Is it good? (It's good...)
Give us a kiss
Basket! (Telling my parent's dogs to get in their basket!)

Swann is MAD

Yeah..well. I am sure some of the people that are reading my blog has read the latest chapter is my story. Again, then if you are said person then, you read the last sentence. Again may I add that you did not realize that I spent a whole hour on that sentence! >.< Yes I really did spend an hour.

I was fighting cliche (of course). I couldn't come up with something that I liked. So I brainstormed...these are the sentences that didn't made the cut.

Base: “You…” she hissed her eyes hot with fire. “You won round one, but

1. “You…” she hissed her eyes hot with fire. “You won round one, but now it’s my turn, and I will be prepared for your little fairy friends.”

2. “You…” she hissed her eyes hot with fire. “You won round one, but now, I will defeat you.”

3. “You…” she hissed her eyes hot with fire. “You won round one, but I am going to win this game that you seem to play.”

4. “You…” she hissed her eyes hot with fire. “You won round one, but in round two, you are going to be the one who is defeated.”

5. “You…” she hissed her eyes hot with fire. “You won round one, but, now it’s my turn and I will be prepared for you and your little fairy friends.”

6. “You…” she hissed her eyes hot with fire. “You won round one, but MUAHAHAHAH!” :)

7. “You…” she hissed her eyes hot with fire. “You won round one, but..but today is round two and I will be playing straight out. No more misses nice.”

8. “You…” she hissed her eyes hot with fire. “You won round one, but today is different. Today I will have you once again you cursed dragon. And this time I will be prepared for your little fairy friends.” (this is in the story)

9. “You…” she hissed her eyes hot with fire. “You won round one, but now I’ll get you and reveal you to the world.”

10. “You…” she hissed her eyes hot with fire. “You won round one, but now I have to go make brownies.”

11. “You…” she hissed her eyes hot with fire. “You won round one, but today is going to be different. Today I am going to win and you aren’t going to be able to stop me.”

12. “You…” she hissed her eyes hot with fire. “You won round one, but now I will hunt you down and make you grovel at my feet.”

13. “You…” she hissed her eyes hot with fire. “You won round one, but now I will hunt you down and make you grovel at my feet, dragon, begging for mercy.”

14. “You…” she hissed her eyes hot with fire. “You won round one, but now I know about your little fairy friends, and now they won’t be able to help you.”

15. “You…” she hissed her eyes hot with fire. “You won round one, but now I know your little secret and in round two…I will win.”

16. “You…” she hissed her eyes hot with fire. “You won round one, but I will not hold any mercy towards you.”

17. “You…” she hissed her eyes hot with fire. “You won round one, but, now I know your little secret.”

18. “You…” she hissed her eyes hot with fire. “You won round one, but right now I think I’ll go to the beach.”

19. “You…” she hissed her eyes hot with fire. “You won round one, but in round two I will stand victorious.”

My mind goes to strange places. O.o Much of it is out of character for Swann but I needed to brainstorm.

What's your favorite?

The zombie-ness

I am a zombie tonight, stumbling and grumbling...and just yeah. (see I am still a zombie with the lack of words. What happens was I had French today and I always break my back studying for it (I don't know why, I always do well). Then I did a despairing dance class (tomorrow) and then I walked the dog, Rebel.

It's a mile walk in a circle (I pass my house everyday), and when I was a thirty-sixty feet from many house when it started downpouring. Dashing into the house I checked to make sure there wasn't a tornado on it's way (there wasn't). I nabbed a umbrella and walked some of the way. After a while I carefully closed it and skipped in the rain (yes, very cliche ;) ).

The owner of Rebel thought I was crazy when I replied to her comment on this action. I said:

The last time that I checked my body is waterproof. A little rain won't hurt, or unless your not. Then you would have problems in the shower if water started coming in.
Zombie-ness is stil here, but I'm fighting it now. *yawn* Though bed does sound good.

Elaboration: Yesterday in the afternoon, I was deep in thought on my bike when I hit a parked car.
Elaboration:Yesterday in the afternoon, I was deep in thought on my bike when I clipped a parked car causing it no damage.
Aren't I just brilliant?

YAY! Dragon got chapter back to me after a mix up and she edited the wrong chapter that I just cut out of the story.

cullenfan:I'm going out on a limb here for this riddle. Is it eye? That's the only thing I could think of.That was an interesting chapter. I love the name Herodes. I found this name that sorta reminds me of it. Haroe. Hair-row. I think it's awesome.

Thanks! I really like Herodes's name as well! An eye is a good one but it's really...a SHADOW! :D I also really like the name Haroe. It was in the running for being in the poll but there were too many other good names that I liked!

AyameAkako:Wow interesting cant wait to see what happens your new charracter is interesting :D

That's good that there interesting...because your going to see alot of them! I have tried really hard to make them interesting, which was a little tough.

Holly Marie Fowl:The Shadow.Fantastic story!~HMF

Yep, Correct! Thanks! I can't wait 'till the end, it's good...how do I know this? ...well...I JUST FINISHED THE SECOND TO LAST CHAPTER! WOOT! *parties*

jodz92:I'm enjoying this so far (: And is it a shadow? Well done, look forward to more! (:

Yay! A new reviewer! I am glad that you like it so far, as I said last time were just getting into the real plot. The rollercoster is just beginning! (yes, you're right! A shadow!)


Grimoire Heart :shadow~? xDI dunno~ A/H and H/A ~ xD This couple actually intrigues me...so, please continue~?


Don't worry! I'm going to continue! This story will only die (stops) if I die! I don't really think that's going to happen! yep A/H H/A I didn't even realize that until it was all said and done...*sigh* Hero and Amara are very intriguing....very much so...


Rathios: 1 i hope you let my cousin out of that lab 2 u got that riddle out of a book i happen to also own and 3 THIS FIC IS ONE OF THE BEST I HAVE EVER READ!

Okay... 1. You mean Herodes's long lost cousin since the rest are dead? :D He's already out if you have read the latest chapter. 2. Probably, there is a good chance of that. 3. *faints with joy*

Liris An egg! Got that one.Ok, good chapter, and more on the way? Will you yell if I demand more Arty and Holly scenes?Lirisx

*starts screaming and running in circles and hitting head on random walls* just kidding. No it's fine that you demand more Arty and Holly scenes. There is one coming about two weeks away. :) Once the last chapter is done, I'll make the fluff by writing a oneshot.How about that? I can see how you see an egg..but it's a shadow.

That's it from here. The story is 32,000 words with 77 pages and 27 of the 28 chapters. ^-^ Yes I have been busy.
