6:05 luvstraberries Hi Patty!!
6:05 barbm hey
6:05 Janilee Hello
6:05 Patty Good to see everyone.
6:06 Has there was a lot more emotional impact I think in IK than in the previous books
6:06 luvstraberries how long does the chat session last?
6:06 therhoda patty i am sorry your having to check your cards
6:06 therhoda I hate havint to do that and wait for new ones
6:06 Janilee Mercy has made up her mind and is moving forward in this book
6:07 Patty Has, yes, it kind of took me by surprise. Thanks therhoda. Yep. I suspect the wallet is underwater.
6:07 Nottled Oh that sucks.
6:07 GadgetMan I don't see cole on. so, who is gonna take charge?
6:08 Has well the fish could have a great shopping spree :D
6:08 Has I already have a list
6:08 JonnyP joins Main
6:08 Patty Usually Has takes the reins
6:08 Nottled You rock Has.
6:08 Patty You are the best <grin>
6:08 Has Idont mind modding- I have become the defacto chat mod lol
6:08 therhoda hehe All HAil HAS!
6:08 GadgetMan bows to the almight Has.
6:08 Alpha_Moon lol
6:08 Nottled Patty, just beware fraudulent checks written to the bait and tackle stores! LOL
6:09 Patty And very good you are, too (says Patty in Yoda-speak)
6:09 Has ok the rules are - the order of questions will by the list- but not the list that jumps up and down like mexican beans
6:09 Patty Shakes finger at Nottled and Has. All of the fish I know are perfectly honest. Honest
6:09 Ashatan hehe
6:09 Has shall we start
6:09 Nottled "A thousand dollars worth of night crawlers...what the???"
6:10 Patty Yes, Has, go ahead.
6:10 therhoda "did we order The fish pen up of the month?"
6:10 Nottled LOL...
6:10 Nottled Sorry.
6:10 Has Hey while I was flying once - I accidently dropped my glasses in the loo while flushing so somewhere in the atlantic the fishes got custody of a pair of glasses
6:11 Has ok theroda your up hon
6:11 Ashatan haha
6:11 therhoda I'll behave or at least try to be a reasonable facsimile of him
6:11 Alpha_Moon wow
6:11 Ashatan I accidently jumped in to the beach with my cell phone in my back pocket
6:12 therhoda All right Patty, due to the evil book seller taking my copy away from me i have not gotten to read cry wolf yet
6:12 Shifter joins Main
6:12 Ashatan it was small and I forgot it was in there and jumped right in...it was salt water so it killed in right away
6:12 Patty I
6:13 therhoda So my question is going to be one of my ponder points from IK. The grey lords know about mercy now, How bad is that for her normal life?
6:13 Has I dont know if we can ask questions about Cry Wolf - so if there are spoilerfic questions i am not sure if any of us can ask about the events yet
6:13 therhoda SPOIL ME
6:13 Has hey shifter
6:13 Patty That's a good question. Mercy's pretty worried about it -- she runs into another Gray Lord in Bone Crossed, but so far so good. . .
6:13 therhoda i am so close to going back when i know a newbie is working and getting my copy
6:14 Shifter Hi sorry I'm late.
6:14 amcjeep4life joins Main
6:14 Patty <grins> My SISTER has copies and I don't
6:14 Has glad you made it
6:14 Alpha_Moon hi shifter
6:14 Ashatan Hello
6:14 Patty Wow. New keyboard is twitchy
6:14 therhoda so we get more faerie in BC? So cool!
6:14 Patty "don't"
6:14 luvstraberries Hi Shifter
6:15 Has hi amcjeep4life
6:15 Shifter Hi everyone *waves*
6:15 Patty More fae, but just for a scene or two. Mostly it's vamps and ghosts
6:15 therhoda Patty i think you missed my sob story, i had it in hand and they took it back because of street dateing. So cruel!
6:15 therhoda COOl VAMPS
6:15 Patty So sad . . .
6:15 Ashatan O yay more vamps
6:15 amcjeep4life more Stephan, always a good thing
6:15 Patty Puppy eyes always works for my daughters.
6:15 Shifter Yay I like the vamps also.
6:16 Has ok barbm has popped out so its so its gadgetman - ur up next
6:16 therhoda the puppy eyes didn't work. Neither did sicking the three year old on them and she is So cute
6:16 Ashatan O I wonder who the ghost are that she sees
6:16 GadgetMan Patty, have Adma or Jesse ever mentioned to you anythign about the possibility of Jesse trygin to turn Were?
6:17 Alpha_Moon Should we take turns asking questions? This is my 1st time here
6:17 Patty Not at this point. I don't think Adam would go for it -- and Jesse isn't interested. Her life is tough enough without turning hairy once a month or more
6:18 Has alphamoon- we are asking questions in the order of a list- but not the one on the right because it tends to jump
6:18 Patty Alpha Moon, yes. Has is moding and is keeping a list of who got here first and we go in that order. It is roughly the list on the right, but that one switches. So Has has the master list.
6:19 Alpha_Moon ooooh ok thanks :)
6:19 Has I will point out when the next person is next on the list - No worries
6:20 Has Jerseybean your up and then its luvstraberries
6:21 Jerseybean Hi Patty. I've got a question about When Demon's Walk, is that ok?
6:21 Patty Sure. Go ahead.
6:21 Jerseybean At one point Sham does a spell on a bowl of water to show the person who looks in it the person they care most about who did Kerim see?
6:22 therhoda ^..^ Good question?
6:23 Patty Very good question. I want to say Sham . . . but I'm not certain. I can't remember exactly where in the book that is.
6:23 Patty It's been a while <grin>
6:23 Jerseybean Ok, thank you
6:24 Patty The other possiblity is the blind boy.
6:24 Has luv - its ur turn
6:24 Jerseybean Ohhh... I didn't think of him
6:25 luvstraberries ok'
6:25 therhoda that does change things a little
6:25 Patty Under other circumstances, I'd tell you I'd look it up. But all my books are packed up and I won't be able to read it again until we get moved. By which time I'll have forgotten what I was supposed to do.
6:25 luvstraberries Patty you answered a this question before however my boyfriend is stuck on saying thank you to Tad in IK, he wants to know when he is going to take advantage
6:26 Jerseybean That's ok, thank you anyway
6:26 luvstraberries of Mercy, I told him never, but he still believes you wouldn't have mentioned it if wouldnt become a topic for later
6:27 Patty Tad is too young. He's been raised almost human -- and most of the fae have set aside the old ways. Mercy thanks Zee, too.
6:27 luvstraberries Thanks!! that is what I kept trying to tell him
6:28 Patty I'll certainly (almost certainly) anyway find someone who did say "thank you" and now his life is to be a warning for others. . .
6:28 Has Ashatan ur turn
6:28 luvstraberries can't wait
6:28 Ashatan ok
6:29 therhoda ahh , the example the best kind of show and tell
6:29 Ashatan Patty will there be more about Ben and his story?...He and Mercy came to an understanding in IK
6:30 Patty Of course there will be more about Ben. I'm not sure how much in Bone Crossed -- this is warming up to be Stefan's book more than Ben's.
6:31 therhoda *dances to the scooby theme*
6:31 Has Yay thats good- I missed Stefan in IK :D
6:31 Ashatan ok...I was hoping to see Stephan again...lol
6:31 luvstraberries me too...
6:31 Ashatan Thanks Patty
6:31 Shifter I'm glad we get more Stefan
6:32 Has Janilee- your up next and then its Sage
6:32 Janilee I have a general Were question. With the fast healing of Weres, could a bone be healed into a wrong position and cripple them or does the magic take care of that?
6:32 David joins Main
6:32 therhoda "got some work to do now"
6:32 Has bye therhoda
6:32 PaulaL joins Main
6:33 Ashatan O that's a good one
6:33 Ashatan Bye Ther
6:33 Has Hey David - glad to see you
6:33 Patty Janilee, yes. I think I said something about that in Moon Called, when Adam was hurt -- Samuel had to rebreak something and wasn't happy.
6:33 therhoda Oh I am still here I am singing (badly)
6:33 Janilee o.k. had forgotten that detail
6:33 Shifter Hi David
6:33 Ashatan haha...funny Ther
6:34 Has oh lol - blame it on the late hour
6:34 Ashatan O I do remember that now
6:34 David Hello Everyone
6:34 Patty It's a good question. I had to scratch my head a minute.
6:34 Patty At least I remembered the answer to that one -- right Jerseybean?
6:35 Has lol Sage ur up and then its life :D
6:35 Has hey PaulaL
6:35 Sage When I read IK, I had a freak out moment when Mercy put on a "Lady Washington" sweatshirt - I was sitting there wearing mine! What made you slip that into the book?
6:36 Jerseybean *busy re-reading sections of WDW*
6:36 Patty I think I was wearing mine at the time <grin>. It's also a very Tri-Cities thing, so it seemed appropriate.
6:36 Sage loved it!!! Made me miss Washington :*(
6:37 Has Life its ur up next
6:37 life06 Are we going to see Stefan in Bone Crossed?
6:37 therhoda hehe
6:38 Patty Absolutely. He's front and center . . . poor Stefan.
6:38 therhoda poor Stefan?
6:39 Has ok hippyfacist seems to have popped out so its notttled turn and then its alpha moon's
6:39 Nottled Patty, I LOVED Cry Wolf...I'm dying to ask you questions about it but I'll behave. I was curious about Aspen Creek. Did they set it up as soon as they arrived in the area or did it spawn from Bran's wife's village?
6:39 therhoda *whimpers*
6:39 Ashatan yeah I'm glad Stephan is back
6:40 Patty Aspen Creek grew around Bran. He had a small fur trading post that turned into a small community over a long period of years. Thompson Falls MT is like that -- the fur post there was set up by David Thompson himself .
6:41 Nottled Ahhhhh so most of the wolves that are in that pack are either newly come or made/turned there?
6:42 Nottled Ooops...that's two questions...sorry.
6:42 JonnyP joins Main
6:42 Has nottled its a continuation - ur allowed that lol
6:42 Nottled LOL...thank you mod-lady.
6:43 Patty Bran's wolves . . . when there is a problem wolf, one that cannot live in a normal pack . . . Bran will bring them to him. So Bran's pack is filled mostly with problem wolves.
6:44 Nottled I see. So Sam was the only one who's been with him from the onset? Crap, I'm doing it again!
6:44 PaulaL Vampires and werewolves and old Fae and shifters / Used cars and spanners and tithing and drifters/ Mundane becomes strange anddw what do you see/ all of those things that you though could not be... n
6:44 Patty The humans who live in Aspen Creek are families of wolves. Some of them have been there for generations. Others move in.
6:44 Has the chat just kicked me out :P
6:45 Nottled Thank you Patty!
6:45 Patty Sorry Has -- (Don't desert me!)
6:45 Has im here- it just went for a sec :P
6:45 Patty (And yes, Sam is the one who was there from the beginning)
6:46 Has alphamoon its ur turn and then its me - but I will pass johnny P ur after alphamoon
6:46 Alpha_Moon I've read all of the Mercy books so far (Great stuff ) My question is, does Mercy make an apperance in "Cry Wolf"?
6:47 Patty She's mentioned once or twice, but has no walk-on part.
6:47 Alpha_Moon YaY!
6:47 Has could there be apppearence in later books ?
6:49 Has anyone having problems with chat- the entire list just disappeared!
6:50 Janilee My connection is very jerky
6:50 Nottled Okay kids...got to run! Hope everyone has a great night, thanks for chatting Mrs. Briggs.
6:50 Ashatan I still see a list
6:50 Shifter No looks fine to me
6:50 Alpha_Moon yeah, what just happened to the list in the right side?
6:50 Has same here- thought it was my connection but its the chatroom I think- :P
6:50 GadgetMan no problems here.
6:50 Has bye nottled
6:50 Jerseybean seems fine to me
6:50 life06 or here
6:51 PaulaL II had trouble getting in, but haven't had trouble since getting in)
6:51 David no prob here
6:51 Janilee good night Nottled
6:51 Patty Bye nottled. The list is okay by me too.
6:51 Has it disappeared and I resigned in again and it appeared
6:51 Alpha_Moon ok bye Nottled
6:51 Has ok its just me :P
6:52 Alpha_Moon I had problems w/ the chat also
6:52 Patty Mike says there's an updated version of this program and he'll try to get it installed before the next chat.
6:53 Janilee Thank you
6:53 Has cool- Johnny P ur up next :D
6:53 Patty It might have something to do with your browser. I'm using Mozilla Firefox
6:53 JonnyP i pass
6:53 Has Im using mozilla as well- but I updated to firefox 3 so it could be that I think
6:53 Has shifter your up :D
6:54 GadgetMan joins Main
6:54 Ashatan me too
6:54 Shifter I Pass my questions have been answered Thank You
6:54 PaulaL Java and browser software don;t alwasy like one another
6:54 Has amcjeep4life your turn
6:54 Has
6:54 amcjeep4life Will Mercy seek out any couseling for the assualt that occured at the end of IK, or is she just going to get over it and move on? I know she has since been with Adam, but I am wondering if the pschological issues that often accompany rape will rear their ugly heads.
6:54 Patty We're on firefox 3, too, Has.
6:55 Has Im going to blame it on gremlins
6:55 GadgetMan I'm on Firfox2, and it just blew up on me in a big Way.
6:55 Patty amcjeep4life, Mercy will seek counselling -- though maybe not from the people with the degrees. And about being with Adam . . . I did stop IK where I did for a reason <grin>
6:56 Has perhaps you have to update it gadget- although when you do it still goes awry at times
6:56 amcjeep4life I don't think the people with the degrees are always a big help, but she will need to talk to someone.
6:57 Patty Absolutely. And she does.
6:57 Has I dont think Mercy could open up to someone like that either - perhaps Ben who knows exactly what she is going through
6:57 amcjeep4life So glad to hear that this issue will not just be glossed over. You are the best!
6:57 Patty <grin> I think she'd rather have talked to Ben. (evil laugh)
6:57 amcjeep4life Has, that is exactly what I was thinking too!
6:58 khrysara joins Main
6:58 Ashatan yeah...she can't exactly tell them all about her and magic...lol
6:58 Has David its your turn and then its paulaL
6:59 amcjeep4life Sorry to ask and run, but work is beckoning. Good night all!
6:59 Janilee Good night.
6:59 Has lol- can you imagine her lying on the couch telling the counselor/ they might have to go for therepy after hearing all that lol
6:59 David in your world are your vampires immortal or does their unlife eventually run out?
6:59 Has night amcjeep
6:59 Patty Good night :)
6:59 PaulaL Night amcjeep
6:59 Jerseybean now who could possibly make Mercy so uncomfortable that she'd want Ben as an alternative
6:59 Has hey khrysra welcome to chat
7:00 Patty <grin> I'm not saying nutt'n
7:00 Patty BTW Jersey. This is bothering me so I opened up the old Demon file and I'm looking through it.
7:00 Has I think I can guess :D
7:01 khrysara Thanks. Gotta chatch up.
7:02 Jerseybean It's the part where she's trying to show Dickon he has magic, last 3rd of book, does that help?
7:02 GadgetMan GadgetMan quit
7:02 GadgetMan joins Main
7:03 Patty Yes :) Then it's Sham. That's what I remembered. I've been paging through, and can tell you that anything later than Chapter Six would be Sham.
7:03 PaulaL {looking at screen that is stationary... is it?}
7:03 Has whats stationary ?
7:04 Jerseybean woo hoo, thank you very much, my mind can move on to other annoying questions now
7:04 PaulaL it looked for a bit that the chat might have frozen up on me... folks were being quiet
7:04 Has Patty - I dont know if you have missed David's question
7:05 Has the chat is running slower than usual I think
7:05 Janilee This is a very polite group as well.
7:05 Patty Sorry :) Yes, I missed it. David, in my world vampires are immortal . . . or rather, they are already dead. So maybe it's the opposite of immortal.
7:05 Has Janilee- its better than chaos lol
7:06 Patty They can be destroyed, but not by time.
7:06 David that is what i figured, but it couldn't hurt to ask
7:06 PaulaL snicer on "they are already dead."
7:07 Patty Absolutely. Good question.
7:07 Has so undead is pretty an oxymoron- I like the living dead although in a way its the same thing :P
7:07 Ashatan yeah cause Mercy killed Andre
7:07 Patty And some vampires, like some wolves, just quit caring and die from apathy.
7:08 Patty Or turn so monsterous, they are destroyed by their own kind.
7:08 Janilee too much publicity
7:09 Patty exactly
7:09 PaulaL You had the that female vampire who had lost interest in things and her subordinates needed muzzzling that they weren't getting...
7:09 Has Marsilia was like that in the beginning in Moon Called- it wasnt until Mercy arrived she seem to have gotten more lively
7:09 Patty Right. Stefan was really worried about her.
7:09 Has PaulaL its ur turn and then its back to the top of the list :D
7:10 PaulaL When might there be a third Dragon book?
7:10 Has ooops sorry its Khrysara - forgot about you :P Your after Paula hon
7:10 khrysara I have the same question about the Dragon books. I miss Ward.
7:10 Patty It'll be a while. Bone Crossed was supposed to have been turned in five months ago.
7:11 Janilee dratted dead lines
7:11 Patty I have to get caught up on current projects . . . and finish the Masques/Wolfsbane thing before I can start playing with Ward again.
7:11 PaulaL I hope that the current books are bein less recalcitrant to be written!
7:11 Ashatan hehe
7:12 Patty Bone Crossed is Much Much easier than Cry Wolf (and Iron Kissed for that matter) Yeah!
7:12 Has Khrysara its your turn -
7:13 Ashatan O I'm looking forward to Wolfsbane
7:13 khrysara Looking forward to Masques and Wolfsbane.. Thanks for the chat. Gotta run. Tumbleweed?
7:13 Patty Absolutely :)
7:14 Janilee Good night khrysara
7:14 PaulaL I'm also looking forward to Wolfsbane... had to wait a decade for some books that were sequels...
7:14 Patty Take care & good night.
7:14 Ashatan bye
7:14 Has ok its back to therohda then :D
7:14 Has night khrysara
7:15 Has Id rather have a good book that has been delayed than something that has been rushed - although the waiting can suck :P
7:16 Patty I can't guarantee everyone will like my books -- but I'll be darned if I let something go to press that I don't like.
7:16 PaulaL Issue was they were dropped by publishers and took a decade to find new ones
7:16 Has Patty I have not a read a bad book from you yet and I dont think I will
7:17 GadgetMan ditto
7:17 Jerseybean I second that Has
7:17 Ashatan Ditto for me too
7:17 Patty You are very kind :) and warm the cold hard cockles of my heart.
7:17 Shifter Me too!
7:17 therhoda Okay since my last comment i ran to B&N and i now has Cry wolf!! Mine all MINE
7:17 David I agree totally
7:17 Has did u pop out to get it lol
7:18 PaulaL Her editor edits tbooks I like, too [there is a Best Editor category Hugo... alas Anne Sowards hasn't gotten nonimated for it... ]
7:18 therhoda Well i ran
7:18 Patty Yeah! Congratulations! -- and it's your turn for a question.
7:18 therhoda does that couny
7:18 Has thats jammy
7:18 therhoda count even
7:18 therhoda Okay my question is a Ward question then
7:18 khrysara khrysara quit
7:18 Patty Hit me with it <grin> (And yes, I'd vote Anne in for a Best Editor)
7:19 therhoda So ward has his lordship in hand, the girl and respect. IS he happy?
7:19 Has Paula I totally agree with you there about Anne- shes brilliant
7:19 nice joins Main
7:19 Alpha_Moon You have Cry Wolf now???? Ok I'm jealous lol
7:19 Ashatan yeah
7:19 Patty Ward . . . is one of those rare people that is happy as long as his family (and his definition of that is pretty broad) is happy.
7:19 Ashatan no fair Ther
7:20 Ashatan where are you that you got it already?
7:20 Has I cant believe she popped out to get it - that is definitely jammy
7:20 Alpha_Moon Dude I have 2 wait until the 29th
7:20 therhoda That is good then
7:20 Patty So yes, he is happy . . . until the beginning of book three anyway <grin>
7:20 therhoda as you said he had another book perky in your brain
7:20 therhoda i was worried about him
7:20 therhoda *face faults*
7:20 Has hey nice
7:21 Has welcome
7:21 PaulaL <--would like to see more books where the characters are happy, and the conflicts are the old-fashioned SF ones of people working together on stuff rather than miserable for reasons for wars, etc.
7:21 therhoda hey i hate living in an urban area, but having 6 bookstores in about 5 miles does have its perks
7:21 Patty Yes, I do have a third book running around . . . but it has to wait until I catch up with my contracted stuff.
7:21 therhoda i know
7:21 therhoda no that i don't want more of the contracted stuff its jsut Ward is my favorite
7:22 Has if gadgetman doesnt mind- nice can ask a question since everyone has asked one
7:22 PaulaL WOW therhoda!
7:22 Patty Uhm . . . most stories happen because people are unhappy -- otherwise why would they try to change things or work together to do something?
7:22 GadgetMan not at all.
7:22 Has and then its your turn - cool
7:23 GadgetMan GadgetMan quit
7:23 GadgetMan joins Main
7:23 Has happy stories are boring - because nothing really happens. Now lots of conflict and drama thats a good thing ;D
7:23 PaulaL <-- engineer/scientist type, always looking for "improvements" and changes and wanting to see what's on the other side of the hill for the sake of going to the other side of the hill
7:25 Patty Do we have a question from Nice?
7:25 Has gadgetman I think Nice may be reading the past chat
7:26 Has so go ahead and then she/he can ask when they are ready
7:26 GadgetMan ok. give me a sec.
7:26 nice sorry guys ...pass
7:26 Has ok no worries :D
7:27 GadgetMan Patty, if you don't mind, how are the moving plans coming, and what can those of us here is teh tri-cities do to help?
7:27 Has jerseybean ur after gadgetman :D and then its ashatan
7:27 Has sorry its luv and then its ashatan :P
7:28 Patty <grin> Well, Mike loosing his wallet in the lake hasn't made things easier. But we'll close on the house the end of the month (knock on wood) then head from there to SpoCon for the weekend. I've got an appointment in Billins and then we'll head over for good.
7:29 GadgetMan Woot! we areall waiting on teh edges of our collective seats.
7:29 Pixie joins Main
7:30 Has luv its your turn hon
7:30 Patty It'll certainly make writing the Mercy book easier!
7:30 Pixie hi
7:30 luvstraberries when Bran came to montana w/David Thompson was Samuel his only pack? Or were there others that haven't been mentioned yet and we'll get more details later?
7:30 Has hey pixie
7:30 PaulaL but you can't claim that you moved for the sake of your novel fidelity!
7:31 Pixie i was watching brother bear when i came on here. lol
7:31 Patty Only Samuel. The other wolves . . . well . . . I just got the best idea for a story . . . hmm. Well. Yes. The other wolves came later.
7:31 luvstraberries Ijust FYI.. I do custom sewing, home decor, if you have any house warming requests Patty (that I can ship easily)
7:31 luvstraberries LOL!! Can't wait
7:32 Patty Thank you very much luv <grin> And PaulaL, I'm very much afraid the long winters got my family.
7:32 Has Pixie would you like to ask a question ?
7:32 luvstraberries
7:32 Patty And it might be nice, if Mike has to go back to work, that we're somewhere with work to go back to. Butte not being a hotbed of IT.
7:33 Pixie i'll think of one! lol
7:33 Has ok we can jump to ashatan and then jump back to you when your ready
7:33 Pixie okay
7:34 Ashatan O yay my turn!
7:34 PaulaL <--survived Arctic winter. "No such thing as a sun!"
7:34 Ashatan Patty what is Wulfe really?...he kinda freaks me out...lol
7:35 Ashatan will there be more about him in future books?
7:35 nancy joins Main
7:35 Has hey nancy
7:35 therhoda oh man hes is creepy
7:36 Patty Wulfe is a wizard or witch (I haven't quite made up my mine . . . and I need to double check that I didn't already put one or the other somewhere official <grin>) who was converted to a vampire. It is forbidden to change "differenty abled persons), but things happen.
7:36 Patty er "Mind"
7:37 Has I think hes an enigma - he isnt totally bad but he isnt totally good- I think he was referred to as the wizard in BB
7:37 luvstraberries and how he was turned as a kid would be great to know and why the exception was made
7:37 Ashatan it takes a while to become a vamp and he is very young?...when would someone have changed him and who?
7:37 Patty Yes. He's the Wizard . . . but that might not mean he's a wizard . . . he could be a witch. All nick names aren't entirely accurate <grin>
7:38 Has is there a difference between a witch and a wizard?
7:38 Patty Ashatan . . . if you knew all the background stories on all of my characters right now -- then you'd get bored with the books <grin>
7:38 therhoda but we WANT to know
7:39 Has Ashatan- its like an onion - once you read a book you just revealed a layer but there are loads to go
7:39 Patty Has. Yes. Witches do things with the body and mind. Wizards have power over the physical -- and both do magic. The ends are sometimes the same, but the means are different. It is far easier to be a powerful wizard and still be a good person than it is to be a powerful witch.
7:39 Ashatan lol...I know but he is really mysterious and creepy...hehe
7:39 Patty I really love Wulfe.
7:40 Has cool- Pixie are you ready for a wuestion
7:40 Janilee You do like creepy
7:40 Has question
7:40 Has oh shes gone- ok janilee your up
7:41 Janilee Are you going to let Sam find a new anchor in life besides Mercy? I know conflict makes for good drama. I just hate to see him hanging out there.
7:41 Ashatan O don't get me wrong I like Wulfe too...that's why I'm so curious about him...
7:41 therhoda oh oh what does that say of the Russian family of adams
7:41 therhoda Opps out of turn
7:41 therhoda Sorry
7:41 Has dont worry therhoda :D
7:42 Patty Mercy is just what Sam needs right now. His pack.
7:42 0mega joins Main
7:42 Has Adam is not going to be happy with Mercy living with Sam I think- lots of conflict
7:42 Patty He's not going to leave while he thinks she needs him.
7:42 Janilee Hmmmm... Thank you
7:42 0mega YAY i didnt miss it
7:42 Has hey Omega
7:42 Ashatan And Patty I could never get bored with your books...not now not ever
7:42 0mega hi
7:43 Patty Adam is used to adjusting to Mercy . . . but this one is difficult.
7:43 PaulaL <-- thinks that Sam and Mercy have a relationship that;'s permanent, but it's not one that's going to have a live romantic angle
7:43 Patty Paula -- you might be right.
7:43 Has I think Adam has to get use to Mercy's messyness lol
7:43 0mega mhmm
7:43 Janilee Good drama
7:44 PaulaL Car parts!
7:44 0mega lol
7:44 Has I can see him say thats your side of the room and thats mine lol when shes ready to move in with him but it will still drive him mad lol - life06 ur up next hon
7:44 JonnyP joins Main
7:45 0mega i cant wait for crying wolf to come out ive literally been calling everyday the past week to see if its come out early at BAM
7:45 PaulaL or perhaps he'll limit her clutter to certain rooms...
7:45 0mega now i have a question or two about Mercy~when its my turn of course
7:45 David David quit
7:46 Has but somehow it will turn up when he least expects it- esp when he has peed her off lol
7:46 life06 IHow is Adam going to react to Stefan? From where we left off it sounded like Adam would want him dead
7:46 Ashatan certain rooms and boundaries would really piss of Mercy I think...lol
7:46 Has Omega you can ask after Life06
7:46 0mega thanks
7:46 PaulaL Life06??
7:46 Has everyone here has answered a question so far p and nancy your back
7:46 0mega lol yah Mercy doesnt like boundaries at all
7:46 PaulaL paiting up involved compromises, though
7:46 Has woulf you like to asj a question as well?
7:46 PaulaL and Adam has I thought a BIG house
7:47 David joins Main
7:47 Janilee And everything in his house is where he wants it to be
7:47 Patty Adam . . . Adam shared a tough few days with Stefan, as did Ben and Samuel. It left them friends.
7:47 Ashatan she is used to her independence...not an Alpha...lol
7:47 PaulaL on the other hand, it IS Adam;s house, and pack headquarters, now those two things might cramp Mercy, moving into someone else;s home as an emancipated adult, and there being other people with rights for being in it, too
7:47 PaulaL -what- privacy?!
7:48 0mega well technically ashatan she was raised by an alpha
7:48 Jerseybean Adam could always move in with Mercy *laughs*
7:48 PaulaL LOL at Jerseybean
7:48 Janilee No space for his daughter in the trailer
7:48 Patty I think we're waiting for Omegas question?
7:48 0mega oh sorry lol
7:49 Patty No problems <grin>
7:49 PaulaL she's probably regard it as an adventure, at least for a while
7:49 Ashatan yes Omega that's true but she has lived alone for years
7:49 0mega well sorry its a two part question -.- first off will we ever learn about Mercy's dad/ more about the Walker
7:49 0mega and.... how does her being a walker correlate with talking to ghosts?
7:49 Patty Almost certainly. Equally almost certainly not in Bone Crossed.
7:50 Patty That's part of what a walker does . . . walks between here and there . . . between human and animal.
7:50 Patty Mercy's wrong about where the term "walker" comes from.
7:50 0mega i wanna know mainly is he a 'ghost"
7:50 Patty Her father? No.
7:50 0mega aha.....
7:51 Patty He's gone one.
7:51 0mega darn *snaps fingers*
7:51 Patty er . . .on
7:51 PaulaL hmmm, sounds like that might be why she saw so clearly, in the Fae community...
7:51 0mega lol ghost part of her father
7:51 Patty PaulaL -- you could be right. Certainly it was her walker/coyote abilities.
7:51 Has lol- is this like an obi wan kenobi vibe here ?? :D
7:52 Ashatan O good questions about Mercy...she sees both worlds while not really belonging to them
7:52 0mega but Stephan has a idea of what she can do...?
7:52 PaulaL as opposed to the new "Katie Marsh" series by the author who also writes as Katie McAlister, in which there are ghosts hanging acrousn--screwball humourous murder mystery fantasy sereies
7:52 Patty Something. But everything he knows about walkers is what an enemy knows about another
7:53 Patty I was speaking about Stefan . . .sorry that was unclear.
7:53 0mega interesting... that does prove a point tho
7:53 Patty Katie M is a loverly author.
7:53 0mega never read anything by her
7:53 Has Life its ur turn and then its alphamoon-
7:53 0mega *add to read list* XD
7:54 Janilee Enimies can see each other very clearly sometimes. e.g. Patton and Rommel
7:54 PaulaL I got somewhat annoyed at something in the book, though, feeling that I wasn't being played fair as a reader with on a particular situation
7:54 0mega sorry i took so long guys XD
7:54 Patty Right. And then there are the cavalry and Indians.
7:54 PaulaL it was mostly mildly miffed though
7:54 Has Katie M's Dragon series is good :D
7:54 Has no worries omega :D
7:54 0mega i'll have to find some
7:55 Patty Paula I'm a little uncomfortable critiquing other people's books
7:55 Patty on this forum.
7:55 PaulaL ok
7:55 life06 i already went
7:55 Patty It's too easy for it to turn into a feeding frenzie <grin>
7:55 Has oh u did sorry lol- alphamoon its ur turn
7:55 me joins Main
7:55 Alpha_Moon ummm ok
7:56 Has I have a book recommendation- I just finished Pleasure Unbound- I loved it
7:56 Janilee Hello me
7:56 Has its like weres/vamps/demons running a hospital
7:56 Patty Last question . . . not to put any pressure on <grin>
7:56 me is the chat still going?
7:56 0mega whose it by has?
7:56 Has Janilee you can ask a question
7:56 Patty Has -- I read it, too. A very intriguing world :)
7:56 Alpha_Moon My 2nd question is, How old exactly is Mercy (sorry for the randomness of my questions)
7:56 Janilee I've gone
7:56 Has can Me ask one
7:56 PaulaL &lt;- was surprised to not get potshotted at work last week on technical document review, I expected potshots, didn't get any...
7:57 Has since they just joined
7:57 Has I think Mercy is about 30 -31
7:57 Has pleasure unbound is by Larissa Ione
7:57 Alpha_Moon I assumed she was like 28-29
7:57 0mega thanks has:)
7:57 me I don't have a question and I'm seriously late. I skip.
7:57 Has ok
7:57 Has janilee
7:57 Patty Mercy is in her early thirties.
7:58 Has I have one also
7:58 Alpha_Moon ok
7:58 Patty Go ahead Has :)
7:58 Has but janilee can take it if she wants
7:58 Ashatan wow...she really doesn't look it...lol
7:58 Janilee I'm good
7:58 0mega lol you know those coyotespores
7:59 Alpha_Moon lol must be the water
7:59 Janilee Go ahead Has
7:59 PaulaL I wonder how old her father had been
7:59 Has ok Will we see the trip to DC with Adam and Charles and presumeably Anna in a futre book
7:59 Has future
7:59 PaulaL {wasn't asking question, was making comment... difference!}
8:00 Ashatan lol
8:00 luvstraberries will we find out who bound Stefan and why Marsila turned him?
8:00 Patty I don't know. My feeling is probably not because I'm trying not to let the two series get too intertwined so people can read one or the other if they don't want to read both. It also makes it much less confusing for me to maintain timelines <grin>
8:00 me less confussion is always best
8:00 luvstraberries sorry!! oopsie, had it pretyped.... great question Has
8:00 Alpha_Moon ok I'm about to get going. I had a blast chatting with all of you
8:01 Janilee Good night
8:01 Patty Luv -- I don't know yet . . . Paula, very interesting "comment" and I've been playing with different answers.
8:01 Has true lol
8:01 0mega i do think its really cool how you take the story and take the main concept into different characters
8:01 Patty Good night all <grin> Must go look for wet wallet. Hugs.
8:01 Patty Patty quit
