I'm probably going to cut out the scene I was considering with the otehr gifted. The scene made a point that really has nothing to do with Nia or the story in general. Thank you just the same how ever.
Sadly, I am unable to write as I thought I would, my days off were shifted and now, between my two jobs, I don't have a day off. Please consider Mary and Faith MIA for the time being and you can search for them or however you think your PC would react. When I come back I'll have a plusable excuse for their being gone...I hope.
Don't worry polite. I'm sure you don't want lit to be more stress, and we all understand that the real world does exist. Relax and when you find the time come back and I'm sure you'll write one of your great posts.
Siren, how are Nikki and Mark getting to Bridges, a city under the control of your rival gang?
Private airplane? Public airplane? Train? Driving cross-country in semi-trailers?
The Killer Bees will be sending weapons, support, and more personnel, but how are you and your first wave of agents getting there?

JC, Kell should find signs of a struggle at the desert house. Mary is missing, but her paintings are all still there. What's Kell going to do about that?

DT, if Loki continues investigating Mary, the painter, he should eventually run into Kell (JC).
No worries, Cats, at least you're posting. Yeah, I hope it picks up again after the holidays.
Great stuff you're doing with the Valin mythology.
I want to wait for DT before doing the concert itself, so feel free to mingle. Describe who you're approaching, and I'll have them answer any questions for you.
personally I'm still wondering what to do about the entire teratophobia thing. It seemed real good in theory but in practice I'm having problems writing it. I want there to be a distinction between it and suicide because she is not truly suicidal just wants to kill of the kids. How well protected are they in her? While a part of her body do they benefit from her healing power?
Cool spider-monster, Morgoth. And it fits nicely into Nia's teratophobia story.
Cats, I was wondering about that too. If Nia really wanted to kill the kids, it would be easy enough to stab herself in the belly, or something equally violent. She would heal and the kids wouldn't, and that's the end of that.
So, let's say the kids are protected by her healing power, at least for now. Nia wouldn't know that, so she might still try getting rid of them in a violent way. She might also go looking for abortion doctors. Abortion is illegal in Argo, but it still happens. The Weaver villages in the swamps to the south would be a likely place to get an illegal, herbal abortion. Again, it won't work on Nia's kids, but trying will give her something to do.
What argo isn't prochoice! Works for me. Thank you, but stabing herself in the belly would be mutilation and I supose Nia will avoid that for the time being.
Now I'm off to read the spider monster... of oz.
Edit: About that spider, yeah Nia doesn't want that to happen to her.
I'd like to get Symphony and Nia together again (possibly through Dani), but if that doesn't happen right away, that's okay too.
Cats, feel free to ignore the Basilisk's Heart thing if Nia wouldn't care. What about taking Nia into the southern swamps looking for an abortion?
DT, Symphony might recognize Nia in the crowd, or might not. You can go to Hass' party, or not, as you wish. If not, what is Symphony going to do with the rest of his time in Bridges?
Looks like people are trickling back in after the holidays. Great! If JC doesn't show up soon, I'll do something to get Loki back in action without her.
Mirad, all of the monster-battle stuff on Dracon Island is really happening, right around Rufus. So please react however you want. Antmen are tough, but Rufus should be able to carve through a lot of them with his blades. Their real advantage is numbers, so if you stay around this area much longer, more of them will keep coming out of the hole until you're exhausted.
Well DT it most certainly was a compliment you left me speechless. (I think thats cause for celebration.)
I think Dani should bring symphony back to her place. Let Nia walk in and ignore the do not disturb sign. I can only picture the shocked look on her face when there playing monopoly with out her.
The swamps for an abortion sounds like a reasonably good idea. I will see if I cross paths with DT first how ever.
Sorry for the lag Swamp, things have been hectic with me and been having trouble thinking of a good post for Ghost, but i am working on one right now. I will post it soon.
