Ayshela

RAH!!! Ayshela leaps out of the shadows, tacklehugging Mynx gleefully and babbling "hurrahcongratsiknewyoucoulddoityou'regonnaloveitherei'msogladforyouhurrah!!" before releasing her to catch her breath and go on to tacklehug and congratulate each of the rest in turn.

for all it may be "rambling" i really like your "drowning" one. i've felt that way far too much, lately. and i have to say.. i truly envy you this.

Ayshela unclapped her hands from her ears long enough to deliver a proper Pan-acea, with a note reading "to cure the ills from too much birthday celebration AND from too much birthday noise. Happy Birthday!" Grimacing at the disharmony she clapped her hands over her ears again and made good her escape.

beautiful. *hugs Valdar* absolutely beautiful.

Xaious - yes, and yes.

Ayshela stumbles along behind Xaious in his weaving path amongst the membership until they reach a flat stretch halfway to steel-toed-boot land where she digs in her heels and pulls him to a halt. Dropping to the ground to catch her breath, she reaches deep within her pack and pulls out a pair of silver skates - much used and dearly loved from the look of them. Slipping them on, and accepting a hand from Xaious, she gets back on her feet and joins him in the wind-driven weaving away from the stresses of the week.

It's Friday! It's Friday! hurray and hurrah!! Ayshela does a gleeful happydance before scampering off to the rest of the day's allotted activities, tacklehugging everyone in the vicinity on her way. =)=) =)

*hugs* you and me both, hon.. you and me both.. have fun!

Mynx - you really haven't. From what was posted here it was clearly a smaller part of larger message, a *private* message at that, which was taken out of context and posted publicly. Equally clearly, from what was posted, was ntraveler's protest to the fact that his/her/its (whatever, i don't suppose for a moment it really matters) behavior had been a problem for some people, and in the interest of that not becoming a larger problem, the administrator in question wanted to deal with it while it was a small problem. Fair enough, any administrator who doesn't, isn't doing his/her job. To do that, however, you have to have the person whose behavior *is* the problem, talk with you.. if they refuse to discuss their behavior problem (evident by the necessity to *give* a deadline for response), that becomes a disciplinary problem - also fair enough, that's the administrator's job to handle. ntraveler simply objected to being told to be responsible and chose to vent that objection publicly rather than in the privacy such communication had clearly been given, and thus deserved. largely, all you missed was a tantrum.. as such, truly nothing important.

hmmmmmmmm a part of a private message taken out of context and posted publicly in an attempt to make someone ELSE look unreasonable? hmmmmmmmm.. should i buy it? nah. i don't even think so. Ayshela waves goodbye

i don't usually do this, but as this was specifically requested - offline message left for a couple dear friends three weeks ago, one of whom asked me to "post your song?" i've not changed the formatting from its original at all and if you're thinking music, think Stabbing Westward. This is for Lissa. right now, don't ask for reason, for i have none to give.. don't ask for me to understand, i've task enough to live.. don't ask for me to speak my mind if you hate what you hear.. do not ask for me to stay when you don't want me near.. don't tell me that it's simply that i do not comprehend.. when everything you say's designed to push me to the end.. and there are those who do not hear, who do not wish to know.. and still they are so baffled when i erase myself and go.. if people really knew that battlegrounds are all i know.. i wonder if they'd understand - there's reasons why, when i say no?

Vigil - yes Gryphon - yes *hugs you both*

oh, and Gwai - yes, most definitely. *hugs*

Ayshela stalks through, face set in frustration with confusion teasing around the edges and undercurrents of rage barely visible. Boots firmly laced and temper firmly in hand, she sets about kicking the rest of the week away - and anything else which happens to get within range as well, on her determined way to Steel-Toed Boot land.

The mutual screams of the two shifted their dream reality once more, gently depositing their nekkid bodies on warm sandy beaches surrounded by beautiful bikini clad women paying them very VERY close attention. This would be good, except...

have you ever been so afraid to give someone bad news that you couldn't breathe? have you ever given the news anyway - and been completely baffled by their response?

Alaeha, i see now why you mentioned Jirah's date with Purple Shadows was complete. Bless your warm heart, that was beautiful. *huggles*

have you ever wished so much that you could comfort someone, but didn't know what to say or do, that you stood there looking rather like a fish.. mouth opening but no words coming out? shadows thicken and envelop Mynx, taking the form of Ayshela appearing from nowhere with an extra large economy sized hug, just for her.

back to check a PM, so *pssssst* don't tell anyone i'm here! okay.. why did i choose as i did.. Amanda i voted for simply because i believed that would "clean up" your character and make modding easier - or possible O_o. i had no specific reason outside of that to choose her so made the expedient choice to get the game moving smoothly ASAP. As Seer, i selected Vaktang for what might be a peculiar reason: given his record for being lynched early, and innocently, i figured we were due to have him as a wolf.. and if he *wasn't* maybe he could actually play this game through? Verification either way was in order, for lack of specific reason to suspect anyone else. Deg - selected based on response to Amanda's accusation. Any real defense came late and awkwardly, making me curious about the reluctance to be openly involved. Sal - selection based on IM conversation and IC responses. The determined confusion and hysteria conflicted with rational conversations enough to make me suspicious enough to literally at the last minute, AS I WAS PMing Tanny, solidly decide to switch my target. Had i not switched to Sal, i would have chosen Gwai's character, for determined lack of involvement. Lying low might well be a werewolf tactic, so George would have been the next on the list if necessary. *vanishes again* *pay no attention to the woman behind the curtain!*

Weary carnival goers began to gather their things and turned their flagging steps toward the Keep. Hugs and congratulations to the many winners abounded as clusters of people moved this way and that, slowly clearing the Courtyard and surrounding grounds. Dain begain directing his crews to dismantle the rides and load the equipment. Wagons moved about the gounds with all the purpose and direction of ants gathering their stores for the winter, and the grounds were just as purposefully cleared. Wyvern was finally released from duty at the dunk tank. He was handed a terrycloth robe, enabling him to - with great relief - shed the coconut shell bikini Salinye had "gifted" him with. Shouts echoed over murmuring undertones as the dismantling continued. Gaily coloured tents collapsed and rolled to be stacked in orderly coloured stripes across the ground. When the last of them was down they began to disappear into the wagons, which still seemed far too small to hold them all. With everything loaded, the grounds cleaned up, and one last tour done to ensure all was as it should be, Ayshela and Nyyark bade Dain farewell as they had welcome - though this time Alaeha, Valdar, Finnius, Salinye, Lady Celes and Katzaniel stayed to give their thanks and best wishes for safe journeys and profitable ventures. The vividly coloured caravan rolled out the gates into fading sunlight amid farewell shouts, smiles and waves. The last thing anyone at the Keep heard as the caravan rolled into the distance was "See you this winter!"

Ayshela flies through realizing that this is not only friday, but the beginning of vacation for her!!! Tacklehugging anyone coming within six feet of her path, and veering to bring a few within that range, she gleefully pounces everyone she sees and scampers off giggling somewhat madly.

Amen
