If they don't, maybe they should.

Hey, an anthology I'm part of is being Kickstarted right now! It's another fairy tales book, this time African instead of European tales, and it's got some amazing names attached, go have a look!

Cast: Alexa King, Ethan Booth

    Oh, here we go, that looks like it got a reaction!

    Such a good guess! Why didn't I think of that? Still, I wonder what good he will be--decoy? collateral damage?

      Cannon Fodder?

      He can do the classic "companion" role of screaming, asking stupid questions and getting rescued from the monster in the final showdown.

    Here's a possibility; change "you suck" to "your husband sucks"

    She's rather diplomatic. "Jerk" isn't the word I would have used. :P

    • svartalf 12 years ago archived

      Actually, it's the very word needing to be used. Diplomacy's not always being "nice" with the person the way you're implying, SpitefulFox.

      • SpitefulFox 12 years ago archived

        I don't think you got the joke there. I wasn't being sarcastic. The word I would've used would be "asshole" which I think would be less diplomatic than just "jerk."


        Unless you're saying it would be MORE diplomatic to call him an asshole? o_O

    If you wish to send such a card, be sure your local post office carries blackmail stamps.

    Eeeeee, I wanna hear this conversation.

    Loving that glare of his

    Like "HOW"

    I think she is reminding him that there are people he loves, whom he may never see again if he doesn't escape. Raising the stakes.

    • Threnodi 12 years ago archived

      And that if this does actually work, he'd be 'the husband who wouldn't even -try- to fight to get back to you, sorry he's such a loser.' Since he doesn't care what Alexia thinks maybe he'll care what his SO thinks..?

        Plus he isn't that far in the future from her. She could easily just wait a few years and then seek him out and give the message in person

  • Timni16 12 years ago archived

    Oh hoho! She is clever!

    • svartalf 12 years ago archived

      Isn't she? I don't think he realizes...there's no way out other than through this plan. He'll be "sent home" eventually- which is a fate worse than mere death, from what I can gather.

      • Timni16 12 years ago archived

        So true! I think it might have to do with the spirit. And that s just freaky to think about
