Okay. I wasn’t really familiar with the root meaning of troll, or what a troll actually is. Definitely talk to your mum/mom about it and you can mention it to Dekreel, if you feel you need to. I think, that since the creature that Dekreel used isn’t really a “demon”, she could easily change it to something that’s just generally mi…[Read more]

I’ve definitely found problematic elements in fantasy, specifically in more modern fantasy, but on the whole I’ve not had a major problem with most of it. Having said that, I’ve made a conscious decision not to read Harry Potter or any of Philip Pullman’s work, because there are aspects that don’t sit well with me.

No worries 😀 I…[Read more]

@rochellaine

No, no its okay. I’m just simultaneously trying to figure out how to respond to you while my brain is trying to figure out what 8% of $85 is and the two are clashing.

I guess the meaning of troll is different for different people so some people might be bothered by it and some wouldn’t. Like, I don’t have a problem with trolls and…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Whooo!!!! That’s so EXCITING!!!!

Well, I can see your dilemma. I think you cut quite a regal and authoritative figure though.

@rochellaine

Yeah sorry. I’m still here I just got distracted reading @dekreel ‘s KPA.

Uh oh. *glances around nervously*. Okay, I’m ready.

@rochellaine @dekreel

I just looked up the average age for marriage in Elizabethan England and boys were legally allowed to marry at 14 and girls at 12 but boys usually got married at around 21. I imagine girls would have been younger, but thirteen seems a bit excessive. And since the woman’s main task was to have children it does seem strange…[Read more]

@dekreel I know right!

@rochellaine

It’s not so much that Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy that I dislike, it’s more that it’s…a pointless tragedy, I guess. Also, Juliet is thirteen years old. Am I the only one disturbed by that? I will try West Side Story though, when I get a chance.

@dekreel

*frowns at 939 posts* I am going to be one soon too!
Um…we’ve been talking about musicals. Aren’t you shocked?

@rochellaine

Each to her own, I suppose. I haven’t listened to West Side Story yet, but I am slightly worried about it, because I despise Shakespeare, particularly Romeo and Juliet, so I’m not sure how I’ll like a musical retelling of it.

I guess that’s something.

I’ve actually edited a whole chapter of my novella!

@rochellaine

Ah, I see. I would probably prefer The Sound of Music and other musicals like that if they were more modern. For some reason, I’ve always really liked The Sound of Music (probably because I really like war stories), but I can’t stand the songs in it. They’re annoying. I’m sorry.

Don’t like Sierra Boggess? oh dear.

Okay.

@rochellaine

I was actually referring to the fact that she said she’d see us all next week.

@rochellaine

Sierra Boggess, who’s in the 25th Anniversary of Phantom is my favourite one.

Fair enough, there’s a lot of modern singers I don’t like either. In fact, I hardly ever listen to anything but musicals, like I’ve already said, just because I don’t like pop music or singers. Have you ever heard of Nick Jonas? I believe he’s one of those…[Read more]

@alia Newsies is AWESOME. Let me just make that clear. I have the biggest fictional crush on Davey. I was just saying that Anastasia is AWESOMER. That’s all. Please don’t eat me.

I am currently listening to My Petersburg!

Bye! (What, are you going away?)

@rochellaine

Surely out of all the hundreds of girls who’ve played Christine, there’s one you like?

The Neva Flows Reprise is awesome, it was the first one I fell in love with too!

@alia How can I choose just one?? I love them all! (I’m listening to it now too). I guess In My Dreams and The Neva Flows would be my favourites. But seriously, there are none that I hate!

@rochellaine I definitely agree that I like it better than Newsies and maybe Phantom too, I’ve never decided.

@rochellaine @alia

I second Alia’s question: Movie or Broadway?

and yes, I’m still here, just needed to focus for a minute so I disappeared!

@rochellaine @catwing @sam-kowal @dragon-snapper

Sorry, I forgot to let you guys know, here I am!

@rochellaine

I’m going to be around in forty minutes/an hour, to do some editing.

(The sneezing has stopped but the violent coughing has begun, so I’m still confined to home)

@warrenluther04

Well, my signature basically says it all. I’m a human girl who can make origami creations come to life, I have an army of origami cranes that do my bidding and somewhere along the way I picked up a sabre from Babylon. I wander the land, defending the honour of my favourite characters and performing highland dances. Blue eyes,…[Read more]
