Hold Me back ( I have to party)

[Liz]

Basically, that ball was his key back to the Abarat, where he comes from. You need it to summon the sea from the Abarat into the Hereafter (Earth). So basically.......he's kinda stuck here

Ha HA! I knew there was a catch to just letting him go. *high-fives Tara*

why pay one of these morons when you could've easily done it yourself?

'Cause then HE gets the evil death-glare.

Me: *reaches into the floor and pulls out the ball again. throws it at the stereo and turns it off*
Ball: *rolls towards another hole in the floor*
Carrion: *lunges and makes a grab for it*
Ball: *rolls into hole*
Carrion: *scowls and goes back to his corner*

*points & laughs*

Me: So...how was your Valentine's Day?

BB#3: *shrugs* No different from any other day, ya know? It really ain't that big of a deal.

FYI Tara: I gotta leave in about 20 minutes, and I really wanna know what Beej got ya, so if you could write that in sometime within the next 25 minutes or so, I'd appreciate it.

[EbonyStar]

*high fives and receives a death glare from Carrion*
Heh. C'mon, man. You've done worse in your lifetime

BB#3: *shrugs* No different from any other day, ya know? It really ain't that big of a deal.

Me: *rolls eyes* You're starting to sound like me *smiles* As long as you don't start getting snappy and sarcastic, I can live with that *leans head on his shoulder
Pub Crowd: Awwwwwww!
Me: Mind your own business
Random skeleton: Isn't this, like, this fifth time she's been right on the stage and expected us to just ignore them?
Pub Crowd: *nods in agreement*
Me: Don't you have anything better to do?
BJ: *walks up, holding something behind his back* Nah. Why'd you think they're hanging around this joint?
Me: *laughs* How's it goin?
Beej: Pretty good. Uh.....I got somethin for ya
Me: I can see that
Beej: ?
Me: *can see through his ribs and sees what he's holding behind his back*
Beej: Oh.....right. Well, anyway *holds out present*
Present: *is a black journal with a black rose sticking out of it like a bookmark*
Beej: Sorry if it's a little too...dark, but I thought that'd be more your style
Me: No, black's perfect
Beej: So.....ya like it?
Me: Like it? Don't be ridiculous. I love it
Beej: *sigh of relief*
Me: But.....why didn't you just give this to me on Tuesday?
Beej: *mumbles something*
Me: What?
Beej: Cause.......I lost it
Me: *shakes head and laughs* Only you, Beej. Only you. Oh, I forgot to get you a present
Beej: Nah, I don't need anythin, doll
Me: Yeah you do. But I gotta think of somethin. C'mere, I'll improvise
Beej: You're gonna get me somethin in the next two minutes?
Me: Are you doubting the magic of a fangirl?
Beej: I might be *sly grin*
Me: You're doubting the fact that I can come up with a present in a few seconds?
Beej: Mayyybe
Me: Just watch *smooches for.......I dunno, pick a number, and that's how many minutes*
BBs: Daaang
Me: I never get tired of that reaction
Beej: .....*grins*
Me: Or that one
Beej: Well.....*fixes hat* Glad ya liked it, sugar. Oh, and read the inside of the journal. Your card's included in there *wanders off to the bar or somewhere*
Me: *opens the journal* "Hey doll. Hope your Valentine's Day's better'n 'Just Another Day.' Write about it, or anythin else you want, in here. If ya get lost for inspiration, come find me. I'll see what I can do Happy Valentine's Day, babe. ~BJ"
BB#3: He's a great guy, y'know. His gals mean a lot to him
Me: Yeah. But y'know, he's not the only great guy around here *lays head back on his shoulder

[Moonlight]

Hi... again... ignore me, I'm having a mood swing so I'm really emotional right now. Upset as well. *lays down on couch*

*despite mood smiles a bit at Tara/BJ cuteness*

[Liz]

ME: XD Yay fun! *looks at the journal* Ooh, pretty pretty! Man, all I got was the cliche flower & sweets. YOU actually got something useful that fits your personality.
BJ: *glances over at me*
ME: Not that I didn't love my present beyond all reason!
BJ: *laughs a little & shakes head* I know, babe.
ME: Heh...^^; *is a moron*

Aww...hi Jem! *hugs*

[EbonyStar]

*despite mood smiles a bit at Tara/BJ cuteness*

It's been way too long since I've heard that phrase. I'll fix that in the future

*hugshugshugs Jem* When I rule the world, I'll get rid of mood swings, kay?

Oh, Liz, your present was so sweet. Heh, works on two levels! *is a bigger moron*

[Liz]

When I rule the world, I'll get rid of mood swings, kay?

ME: Sounds good to me.
BB#2: *shudders at the thought of Tara ruling the world*
ME: Oh grow up.

[Moonlight]

Hi Liz ^^ *hugs her*
And I liked my present, even though it was just a few flowers...

*laughs a little* And will that be any time soon?

[EbonyStar]

*laughs* I wish. Honestly, if I ruled the world, there'd be some changes made. No wars, or at least far less. No being mistaken for a quail and shot in the face (sorry, had to say it). No. Hurting. Animals. Gosh, if there's one thing I can't stand, it's a person who just hurts animals. I mean, hunting, okay, when it's necessary, but not just for sport! Sickening. And somehow I'd change the entire human nature, so people don't judge others simply by the way they look or act or the things they like (I'm getting too personal about it, though). Oh, and there would have to be a piano in every house

[Moonlight]

I can't play the piano. Unless you count messing around with melodies of songs from memory on it ^^;;
*sigh*

[Liz]

No being mistaken for a quail and shot in the face (sorry, had to say it).

OF COURSE someone had to bring that up! *throws arms up in frustration*

And somehow I'd change the entire human nature, so people don't judge others simply by the way they look or act or the things they like

Ah, the power of Tara.

I liked my present, even though it was just a few flowers...

I sure hope ya liked it. Come on, do all presents need to be all that personal? No more jealousy! I command it! *tries to look intimidating....then fails*

[EbonyStar]

OF COURSE someone had to bring that up! *throws arms up in frustration*

*typical Tara grin* Sorry, Liz. Everyone kept making references to it in school today and yesterday

Oh, it doesn't matter if you can play it. But every house will have to have a piano in it. We need more randomness in this world. More fruitcakes, and less bakers. We need people that care!
Sorry. Had to get that outta my system

Now.....
BB#3: *looks at the clock* What time do you have to be outta here?
Me: You want me to leave already?
BB#3: Far from it
Me: 10:00, and no later. My mom will take away priveleges if I'm on later than 10
BB#3: Strict, huh?
Me: Oh yeah. But hey, I've got about an hour. No worries, dude
BB#3: Yeah

[Moonlight]

I sure hope ya liked it.

I'm serious, I did!!

No more jealousy! I command it!

......

*tries to look intimidating....then fails*

*would normally laugh at that, but doesn't*

I read that too fast and I thought it said TJ and I was like... "how do you know my friend TJ?" Lol.

I'm leaving tomorrow for a ski trip - I'm nervous and happy all at once.

I keep worrying I'm going to forget something! I should calm down....anyhoo, Myspace is addictive and I've like, edited my profile a gazillion times today... Lol.

[EbonyStar]

LOL I don't know any TJs.

Don't worry, Gen. You won't forget anything too important.

Myspace is way too addictive. It sucks you in, I swear

[Liz]

*typical Tara grin* Sorry, Liz. Everyone kept making references to it in school today and yesterday

Yea, my school too. And I'm freakin' sick of it.

But hey, I've got about an hour. No worries, dude

A) You sounded just like me there
B) 40 minutes

I'm serious, I did!!

Good. ^_^

*would normally laugh at that, but doesn't*

Dang. I'm gonna have to try harder.
