Stalling & Silly Slayers Prompts
A Summer Nights oneshot and a Pokemon oneshot. You can really tell I'm trying to avoid writing my Moll Flanders essay, can't you? Well, it has to be done today, so I can't put it off much longer. As a last ditch stalling attempt, here are a few more Silly Slayers Prompts. They are all Xellos-related. Don't judge me!
Xellos makes a coupon book for ( Read more... )
Yep, Zelgadis is the only one out of the three who could play a musical instrument. An' we didn't see anyone wincing from his choreography of that very embarrassing performance in NEXT, so I suppose his singing's not bad, either.
Boy band? Really? No wonder he wouldn't want to participate.
Parent-teacher conference...now THAT I'd like to see. Those two would be the talk of the teachers' lounge.
Managed to finish Good Omens yesterday. It's so strange to see War depicted as an attractive lady in it when I've already fixed the image of the personification as a married man in my mind. Damn, was Thief of Time a great read.
I never had much, if any, respect for biker gangs. To me, they're the lowest of the low among the criminal element in the Western World. They had no concept of true, real Angels of Hell.
Don't ye just love seein' that hellhound becomin' a mere, mundane dog an' lovin' every minute of it?
Good Omens was a great read for me, an' my only jab at it was that it didn't go on longer. Guess the two writers had other projects to focus on.
There is a six-issue comic entitled The Chronicles of Wormwood, written by my favourite comic writer, Belfast-born, Brooklyn-residing Garth Ennis.
Like Good Omens, the Anti-Christ was born in the UK and does not want to bring about the end of the world, the story is really insightful an' intelligent in telling about the situation of Heaven an' Hell, an' that little blue-green rock that both regions are so interested in. Star Wars is mentioned too(the Anti-Christ's pet rabbit likes to go on Star Wars forums/blogs and traumatize SW fans to the point of suicide. Personally, I think it took the Gay Wookiee theory a little too far).
Oh yeah, an' Jesus was reincarnated as a Black Guy who conducted a liberal protest in Los Angeles that resulted in him being beaten into a temporary coma by an LAPD riot squad.
In typical Ennis fashion, the comic has vulgarity, graphic violence and sexual content. I don't mind the first one, thoroughly enjoy the second one, an' try not to look at the third one. Once you overcome that, you'd see an excellent story.
Still, Pratchett at least dosen't need to use those three elements to write a decent story, an' neither do you, for that matter.
Awaitin' the chapter with the witches, llybian. Xellos has no idea what awaits in the Highlands.
P.S. Candyland? Seriously? This is the same guy who had a giant bell fell on his head after makin' a measly donation. He's got to be bad at SOME kids' games. Definitely not Tag, I presume.

I'm sure AMELIA would've liked it if he'd participated...
I think I remember reading the horseman parts were much more Neil Gaiman created than by Terry, so that might explain War.
Absolutely! It's better to be a pampered mutt than a vicious killing machine!
I know they originally planned on doing a sequel but... it never happened, and probably never will. *hangs head*
Damn it! Now I feel like re-reading it again!
Huh. That sounds interesting. A rabbit, really? o.O;
I've gotta get going on that... why aren't there more hours in a day? ...More hours that I'm *not* in school/doing schoolwork.
HMM. Well... he's definitely good at mousetrap... I did have this idea that Filia would always beat him at Yahtzee. Like, she's a Yahtzee mastermind or something. And he can't. stand. it.
