*turns to see him, and turns her face away quickly*
I've gotta go Ju..... no... please don't.
You got Tomlin to think of now. who else can you trust to help you if not the people here. Tinks, Norti, Kel, even LP.
I was a wanderer before settling down here. I know how tough that life can be. It would be unfair for Tomlin if you were to go.

If my being here is to painful and distracting, then I'll go. This place is better for Tomlin and you. The people here will help watch him and help you as well.

Gidetisms

I will not allow you to leave on my account...That would cause more pain than anything. I'm used to being a wanderer, my son should probably learn how to care for himself on the road as well. We'll be fine
FairyTInkArisen

You "shagged" I thought she just did some favors for you. I'll tell you what, I'll shag someone and then we'll call it even.

We'll be fine your leaving will cause me pain also. How do you think I'll feel if I knew you left because of me?

Stay... think of Tomlin.

Gidetisms
22-02-2005, 14:18

occ: well I dont actually know it was kinda vague

ic: If you feel you need to, perhaps we should just take some time and get some perspective, please dont do anything out of revenge or anger
Oksana

Time and care will heal the most grevious of wounds... including the Heart.
one day, perhaps these wounds will heal also.

Gaeltach
22-02-2005, 14:22

I'll have to pass. I generally don't sleep with people I don't know.
Findecano Calaelen

Findecano Calaelen

Sanctaphrax
22-02-2005, 14:42
I seem to have forgotten eh? Maybe you'd care to remind me? Besides, wanting to kill me should be enough of an excuse to hate you. I forgave you for that, but trying to turn people against me by claiming I'm a demon and I can't be trusted, thats beneath comtempt.

To see the show tonight
And there's a light on
Heavy glow
By the way I tried to say
I'd be there... waiting for
Dani the girl
is singing songs to me
Beneath the marquee... overload

Steak Knife Caro Shark
Con Job Boot Cut

Skin that flick
She's such a little DJ
Get there quick
By street but not the freeway
turn that trick
to make a little leeway
Beat that nic
But not the way that we play

Dog Town Blood Bath
Rib Cage Soft Tail

Standing in line
To see the show tonight
And there's a light on
Heavy glow
By the way I tried to say
I'd be there... waiting for

Black Jack Dope Dick
Pawn Shop Quick Pick

Kiss that Dyke
I know you want to hold one
Not on strike
But I'm about to bowl one
Bite that mic
I know you never stole one
Girls that like
A story so I told one

Song Bird Main Line
Cash Back Hard top

Standing in line
To see the show tonight
And there's a light on
Heavy glow
By the way I tried to say
I'd be there... waiting for
Dani the girl
is singing songs to me
Beneath the marquee... of her soul
By the way I tried to say
I'd be there... waiting for

Chant

Standing in line
To see the show tonight
And there's a light on
Heavy glow
By the way I tried to say

BLack XIII
22-02-2005, 16:57
hear a voice say
"Don't be so blind"
It's telling me all these things
That you would probably hide

Am I your one and only desire
Am I the reason you breathe
Or am I the reason you cry

Always, always, always
Always, always, always, always
I just can't live without you

I love you, I hate you
I can't live without you
I breathe you, I taste you
I can't live without you

I just can't take anymore
This life of solitude
I guess that I'm out the door
And now I'm done with you

I feel like you don't want me around
I guess I'll pack all my things
I guess I'll see you around
Inside it bottles up
Until now, as I walk out your door
All I hear is the sound:

Always, always, always
Always, always, always, always
I just can't live without you

I love you, I hate you
I can't live without you
I breathe you, I taste you
I can't live without you

I just can't take anymore
This life of solitude
I guess that I'm out the door
And now I'm done with you

I love you, I hate you
I can't live without you
I left my head around your heart
Why would you tear my world apart

Always, always, always, always

I see the blood all over your hands
Does it make you feel more like a man
Was it all just a part of your plan
This pistol's shakin' in my hands
And all I hear is the sound:

I love you, I hate you
I can't live without you
I breathe you, I taste you
I can't live without you

I just can't take anymore
This life of solitude
I guess that I'm out the door
And now I'm done with you

I love you, I hate you
I can't live without you
I love you, I hate you
I can't live without you

I just can't take anymore
This life of solitude
I pick myself off the floor
And now I'm done with you

Always
Always
Always

Oh oh oh oh oh
I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine in a bag
I'm useless but not for long
The future is coming on

I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine in a bag
I'm useless but not for long
The future is coming on
It's coming on, it's coming on
(Rah, yeah)
It's coming on, it's coming on

Finally someone let me out of my cage
Now time for me is nothin' 'cos I'm counting no age
Now I couldn't be there now you shouldn't be scared
I'm good at repairs and I'm under each snare
Intangible (ah y'all) I bet you didn't think so
I command you to, panoramic view (you)
Look I'll make it all manageable
Pick and choose, sit and lose
All you different crews
Chicks and dudes, who you think is really kicking tunes

Picture you getting down in a picture tube
Like you lit the fuse
You think it's fictional, mystical - maybe spiritual
Hearable what appears in you is a clearer view cos you're too crazy
Lifeless to know the definition for what life is
Priceless to you because I put you on the hype shit you like it?
You like it?
Gunsmokin' righteous with one token Psychic among those
Possess you with one go
But among knows possess you with one though

I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine in a bag
I'm useless but not for long
The future is coming on

I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine in a bag
I'm useless but not for long
(That's right)
The future is coming on
It's coming on, it's coming on, it's coming on, it's coming on

The essence, the basics Without it you make it
Allow me to make this child like a nature
Rhythm you have it or you don't
That's a fallacy; I'm in them
Every sprouting tree
Every child apiece
Every cloud you see
You see with your eyes
I see destruction and demise
Corruption in disguise
From this fuckin' enterprise
Now I'm sucking to your lies
Through Russ, though not his muscles but the percussion he provides
with me as a guide
But y'all can see me now cos you don't see with your eye
You perceive with your mind
That's the inner
So I'm gonna stick around with Russ and be a mentor
Bust a few rhymes so mother fuckers
Remember where the thought is
I brought all this
So you can survive when law is lawless
Feelings, sensations that you thought were dead
No squealing, remember
(that it's all in your head)

I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine in a bag
I'm useless but not for long
The future is coming on

I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine in a bag
I'm useless but not for long
The future is coming on

Load up on guns and
bring your friends
It's fun to lose
and to pretend

She's over bored
and self assured
Oh no, I know
a dirty word


hello, how low


With the lights out it's less dangerous
Here we are now
entertain us


I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now
entertain us


A mulatto
An albino
A mosquito
My Libido
Yeah


I'm worse at what I do best
and for this gift I feel blessed
Our little group has always been
and always will until the end


hello, how low


With the lights out it's less dangerous
Here we are now

I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now

A mulatto
An albino
A mosquito
My Libido
Yeah


And I forget
just why I taste
Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard
it was hard to find
Oh well, whatever, nevermind


hello, how low

(I am too much like stag for my own liking)

IC:
'You know where Tish is?' He stood up quickly, spilling his drink (or he would have if someone had not taken in :headbang: ) and put his hands on her shoulders
'Show me to her' he restrained himself from shaking the poor woman

ooc: ignore Tisha's posts unless you want your characters put away for being insane and talking to themselves, i really don't wanna have to do it cause i really like everyone else


ic: *comes in carrying Nairobi, seeing Stag completely rat-arsed she decides it's best not to leave the child with him and so sets her down at a table with a colouring book and crayons and a carton of orange juice* Stag, i don't think you should be drinking so heavily

Find me some violence. Destruction.

Ok, I can probably find you some violence if you want. Let us take a walk out into the forest and I'll arrange you a match against my demon, how does that sound?

Fennella took his hand and took him outside....she drove him to the institution out of town. she lead him to a room - Tish was sitting there reading looking scarily normal.

'go in' Fennella said, smiling and opening the door....Tish looked up and saw Stag, her face pale and tear stained, a strong smell of medication loomed.

'Hello' she croaked.

*shudders*

I think I'm done with fighting demons for at least a little while. Some of the wounds are too fresh.

*flicks her wings absently*

But I may take you up on that offer soon.

IC:
'Madamn! I am NOT drinking heavily!' He said swaying slightly
'This stuff is light as air........' He dropped the glass expecting it to float away, then looked confused as it shattered on the floor

Stag took one look at the child and sobered up instantly as she turned to look at him. He went over to her and picked her up, slightly daunted that only a few months ao he had his hand on Tish's bump, but still ashamed
'I'm sorry darling. But don't worry' He smiled
'ou can have you'r revnge when it comes to your prom night and make me worry. I'll explain later' He laughed and hugged her.
'Thank you Tink' He turned to the woman
