Maryam in A Land Of Desert And Sun |
(Someone's POV)
Ach, this horrid estate. Though I've been here very scarcely, I vaguely know the grounds from the tours James Rheston had given us -
My thoughts are broken off, as a pulling becomes discernible on my hed.
I glance upwards in distaste and find that my hat, now sporting a feather, has been tangled in the... I shudder to myself, searching for a name in my brain to sufficiently describe this unseemly mess.
Uppergrowth, I could call it, I suppose. A rainforest's canopy.
My face wrinkling in distaste, I carefully disengage myself from the trees' grip and begin moving again.
But this is all part of the plan. I go up to the estate, I scout around, I snoop, I spy, I look... You never know what might be there.
A little smile darts around my lips as I finger the lighter in my pocket, then close my eyes and sigh to myself.
Not yet. Perhaps now. Perhaps later. Perhaps never at all.
I shouldn't have brought it - yet it was so tempting. I admit it.
My fingers tighten around the handle; my footsteps quicken.
I should be emerging into a clearing any time now....

Oooh. Who is this
Oooh. Who is this freak? Maryam, too much suspense out here; I’m being drowned.
Loving it still, and I want more soon! However, I’m not pleased with Indy in the last chappie. She shouldn’t have done that. Made brownies for Liam, that is.
I mean, seriously; if I were her, I wouldn’t even THINK it.
It’s too …maid-worthy, if that’s what we should call it.
Hmpmh. But I’m still love this story, of course; and this dude’s ‘POV’ here (though our dearCal
P.S.: Sorry about the colors. I got carried away. LOL, ranting rocks.

Don't know who he is, but I
Don't know who he is, but I hate him.
Ooohhh, brownies? A token of... friendship i suppose?
So lock the windows, and bolt the doors. Cuz I've got enough problems without creating more! ~Relient K Devastaion and Reform
HAHA!!! Don;t worry, I'm not
HAHA!!!
Don;t worry, I'm not butchering Indy's character by having her do something completely out of it (her character, that is) this is actually completely IN character. She's feeling guilty about the girlfriend issue, and (her mind's not gone yet!) she also sees this as an opportunity to get in deeper with the mystery! But, of course, either way, she will.... *evil grin*
The secret to good writing? Just tend to skip WRITING the parts readers tend to skip READING.

---LOL, are you sure about Indy and Rheston not liking each other subconsciously? Hm... kinda hard to believe if I do say so myself.
Oh, and by the way, this really HORRIBLE thing happened (well, in your point 0f view I think it’d be hilarious), I called Kat yesterday and we were talking – well, more like arguing – and then she suddenly starts saying in this sneaky mocking voice…
Look here was the conversation (I think I’ve got some of it mixed up – but oh, whatev):
Kat: *sneaky voice* “Hey, you know, the other day, I was online on KidPub and I saw this story… it’s called The War Between Us…”
Me: *whisper* Ack!
Kat: *continuously sneaky voice* “…and I saw a Meera Potanani in there... “
Me: *freaked* OMG! You READ that?!?
Kat: *ignoring me; sneaky voice again* “Oh, and did you happen to read this story called Indiana Invincible? There’s something about a Susmi Razz in it…
Me: *way freaked* WHAT WERE YOU DOING ON KIIDPUB?!?
Kat: Oh, I was bored so I went on it. Anyways, did you read it?
Me: KAT! How did you READ that in the first place?!?!? (Me thinking: You couldn’t have possibly known that my user name was Tigerlily!)
Kat: Oh, when I come on to Kidpub I normally read your stories and Maryam’s stories… so, what was that in The War Between Us again? Hmm? *threatening sneaky voice now*
Me: *gasp; kinda nervous, kinda annoyed* You weren’t supposed to see that! *glare: this happened on the phone so the glare was useless I guess*
Kat: Hph.*scoffs* Well, at least I know there’s someone like Maryam out there to crush NUTs like you who write stupid stuff about innocent people.
Me: Hmpmh. *smoothening out features, getting fired up to tease* Well, someday you’ll thank me when you’ll start imagining Mark as AY56, Kat.
Her: Shut up. * obviously annoyed (M, I’ll tell you about AY56 – I think you know – later, when my mail starts working again) : just know that AY56 is this dude who we know she likes, but she refuses to admit it*
Me: I won’t. But, seriously! OMG I can not believe you read those!
And so… the conversation proceeded. But still, I want to wrangle her neck! I can not believe she read both of your stories! LOL, she’ll probably come across this sooner or later, so I must be ready with firearms when she does…
I still don’t believe it. But at least it serves her right; she should be one of the M’n’M’s…. she deserves that role in a story!!! Hmpmh.
