The Impossible Girl

@valtmy

In my opinion, most of the musical is awkward attempts to stick passages straight from the book to music.

@rochellaine

Were the white carnations for any particular reason? Or did he just like them?

That wasn’t particularly smart of them. I mean, if you stopped singing and actually did something you wouldn’t be in this here fix.

@valtmy

Haha, no not really. I don’t really think Jane Eyre is a prime musical example.

@Rochellaine

Exactly right. It would be hugely annoying 😛

I feel there are extremely few guys who like flowers as much as Quillon does 🙂 in fact, when it comes to flowers guys are even more unimaginative than in their proposals. Red roses are the only thing they understand.

I actually think you would have more luck vowing vengeance on someone…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Then again, my slightly more sentimental side likes the idea of the flower language that Sapphire and Quillon use. But it would still be simple. I’m sure there’s a flower that means “marry me”.

@rochellaine

Awww 😛

I wouldn’t like a particularly weird one like those examples because I would probably see through it right away and then just get annoyed. I would like the guy just to be frank and practical. “Would you marry me?” would be sufficient. Of course, all this would be done without pleading or tears or any of the other sappy…[Read more]

@rochellaine @valtmy

I just looked up unique ways to propose to someone and some of them were absolutely hilarious.

One of them was to play a trivia game and then casually ask Will you marry me? As one of the trivia questions. Or to get a specially printed jigsaw puzzle and ask the intended to put it together.

@rochellaine

Yes, you have confused me, but I shall move on with life.

@valtmy

Hello there!

@rochellaine

Ah yes, I do. As I said, I don’t know if I will use it, but I shame-facedly admit that I do have it planned.

I think mine is slightly more unconventional 😛 but I don’t want to tell you about it because it would give away most of the ending.

I think Victoria found it a bit forward too 😀 Of course, you can’t just have random German…[Read more]

@Rochellaine

Sorry I had to go do some housework so I had to wait till just now to read your rant, which was quote an enjoyable rant to read 🙂

Don’t worry, Justice wouldn’t propose on one knee. In fact, I do have a proposal scene planned out though I haven’t decided whether to use it or not. Its rather…unconventional.

As to the practice of…[Read more]

@Rochellaine

I would never hold anyone back from ranting on romance cliches, as long as I’m able to rant too. 😛

@ariel-ashira

That’s amazing news! Hopefully we’ll see you around a bit more 🙂

(Sorry for the delay in reply. It’s those pesky time zones)

@ariel-ashira

I can’t even imagine how hard that would be for you. I’m very close to my family and I don’t think I’d cope very well with spending two months away from them living with someone I’d never met. I will definitely be praying for you.

@daughteroftheking

Farewell!

@Rochellaine

Have you disappeared?

@daughteroftheking

“And stuff escalates from there” 😀 sounds like an example of my outlining 😛

It does sound pretty cool, especially a fairy named Brant and Rumplestiltskin.

@daughteroftheking

*bows*  What’s your Red Riding Hood retelling about? If you don’t mind me asking.

@rochellaine

I seem to be good at pairing characters up and getting them attracted to each other, however when it actually comes to helping them continue their relationship I have no idea. It doesn’t help that I’ve never been in a relationship…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Yeah 😀 I mean, with how much I love him, how could I not? He will be an interesting character to explore, since he’s not a conventional sort of hero.

I briefly considered it, and then I remembered how much emotional strain romances put on me and I decided against it 😛 😛 Yes, Quillon gets the honour of being my first romance free…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Quillon is my hero. Along with Chessy of course.

I know, but Zac is the antihero and I am oldfashioned in the fact that I tend to like the heroes over antiheroes.

I wouldn’t let you read my synopsis anyway, sorry 😛 My synopsis is private and I don’t want to give away all my special Scarlet Pimpernel twists. I do have a blurb s…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I’m not really the sort of person who loves the villain, though I do feel sorry for some of them. The closest I come to liking one of my own villains would be Byrd, the villain in the third book, probably because he has a wife and daughter he loves, which makes him a bit more human than Caderousse and Theresa Caelan.

The reality is…[Read more]

@catwing Bye 😀

@rochellaine

That’s true, I don’t like any of them, though I do feel I did a good job on several of them.

I do have rather a lot in the way of antiheroes, but they definitely aren’t my favourite characters. Just everyone else‘s favourite characters.

If Catwing is up to Chapter 3, she would have already met Quillon, I just went…[Read more]
