Damask the Minstrel

Remember? The sniffing contest with Deady. The one where we went, "Aaaah! Level 5 text block of DOOM!" *rolls* "We failed our saves! *overwhelmed*"

I don't remember that at all...
And then he DIED!!!

Revel

I know that one was long! But I thought it was still the longest. I didn't know my wrap-up one was longer.

And that's a little mean, Dammy... you know I try to space my paragraphs out oddly!  :P
And I hope that you know that nature is so
This same rain that draws you near me
Falls on rivers and land, and forests and sand,
Makes the beautiful world that you'll see in the morning


To all reviewers, past and present, thank you! I don't always find something to say in reply to each reviewer but I do my best to read them and will take their advice as best I can. You are appreciated!

Well, okay. Not a text block. But... it was a lot to try to edit for you. XD

For interested parties, the five longest posts were:

1. Revel - "Until Then, She'll Live in Wonder" (4546)

2. Bell, Liza, Revel - "The End, Part III: Ashes, Ashes, We All Fall Down" (4384)

3. Venril - "With My Freeze Ray I Will STOP the World..." (3940)

4. Revel - "A Hidden Sun That Burns and Burns" (3811)

5. Venril - "World 1-2: START!" (3696)

In fact, Revel has 4 of the top 10 longest posts, Venril has 3, Eliza has 1, and posts with joint authorship have 2.
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to do and die:
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.

Eliza Lacrimosa

Yeah, I gotta say, the first draft "Ashes, Ashes" nearly killed me. It was December 22nd, I still had Christmas presents to wrap, and somehow I slammed out something like 3,000 words in 24 hours. (My normal word output is about 4 days for a 1,200 word post, with heavy edits, so 300 per day. "Ashes Ashes" was ten times that.)
She walks in beauty, like the night
of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that's best of dark and bright
meet in her aspect and her eyes...


~Lord Byron

Totally still working on the RV5 epilogue, I swear...

*nods* Well, luckily I had a bit more time to write the first drafts of On the Wings of the Night and We've Got Everybody Singing. That was especially useful because Singing needed some heavy input from Revvers.

Revel

According to Microsoft Word, my epilogue beats out my wrap-up post by 200-300 words.  :P I really wasn't trying to do it I promise!
And I hope that you know that nature is so
