Te'ijal is such a fun character Especially in fanfics

i'm glad you all liked the update ^^ i had fun writing it.

anyway, i forgot to say that there won't be another update for quite a while. i don't know, maybe about two weeks? school is about to end, and i'm trying to maintain my spot on the honor roll, so i'm going to have to study more... T_T

This is really fun! Keep up the good work!

Good luck at school then! Your fanfic fans will be eagerly waiting. XD

Ganbatte kudasai!!! School is hard.

poor stuttering Danny, but still way to go Teijal!
good job Gabs.... =P

Good update! Take your time. We'll be waiting.

here's an update, two weeks overdue. i'm really sorry, and i won't give you my reasons (which are, as always, a lot) unless you really want to know (but i'll tell you that my reasons are pretty boring and all) 'cause you're probably sick of hearing me rant XD

Day 72

The moment the sun rose (which came much later than usual), Danny went out the door dragging his rucksack which he had hurriedly packed last night. He got Rhen quite irritated last night, so much so that she would talk to him only when he asked something, and she would only answer briefly. Te'ijal never had so much fun in her living death, creeping Danny out of his wits. Actually, the poor boy couldn’t sleep because the place we had left for him to sleep in was right next to Te’ijal. And as we all know, Te’ijal doesn’t sleep. She spent the night facing Danny, not blinking once. To be fair, Danny didn’t scream out loud like a sissy anymore, but Tei’jal did tell me that she saw him sweating the whole night and that she “could see his juicy heart palpitating.”

Anyway, like I wrote before, the sun rose much later than usual, perhaps about 8 o‘clock. I suspect that this was Dameon‘s doing. I know I’d make the sun rise late myself if I had the power to do so. So all of us were awake, but too lazy to go out and travel and eager to see how Tei’jal would play with Danny.
“Er...I think I had better go...,” Danny said nervously to Rhen, who was rubbing her eyes.
“What?! You won’t be able to watch out for the crows and the werewolves. Wait for the sun to come up.”
“I’ll be careful,” he replied.
I rolled my eyes. “Danny, listen to me. You got by those infernal creatures by sheer luck. Your luck wore out when you got taken in by Te’ijal’s ex-boyfriend.”
“Oh! I forgot to ask you if he had a new girlfriend,” Te’ijal said to Danny. “Did he? Did you see a female vampire lurking in his house?”
“Uhhh...I...didn’t notice. I don’t think so,” Danny replied, his face getting pale. He was like a student up for a graded recitation, uncertain of whether he had answered correctly.
“Ah, good. I had a necromancer cast a spell on him when he broke up with me. He’s never going to get a vampress for as long as he lives. Well, he’s not exactly living...but...you know what I mean. I hope he rots in his ancient, dingy mansion.¾hey, what are you doing?” Danny was moving ever so slowly towards the door. We hadn’t noticed because we were all looking at Te’ijal.
"Sun's up!" he said with a shaky grin. We scrambled to the window. Sure enough, Danny was right. I heard Dameon mutter an expletive under his breath.

"Thanks for everything. You all saved my life. I...hope we see each other...again," Danny forced out as honestly as he could sound. Actually, he was already smiling brightly until his eyes met Te'ijal's. Which explains the ellipses. Anyway, we all made a show of being sad to let him go. Well, I guess we were sad that he had to go. He was so much fun to watch with Te'ijal, and he was already irritating Rhen, we could've been friends or something. Just as Danny turned around to start walking, Te'ijal cried out, "Wait!" so dramatically. We all looked at her, and Danny turned around. The moment was dramatic as hell and you'd think that our journey's plot had a twist in which Te'ijal falls in love with Danny and realizes it only when he's about to leave. Turns out, that wasn't the case.
"You didn't bring any food! And you have no weapon to fight off the creatures you're too sleepy to avoid. Take this, pretty morsel," she said, handing Danny the wooden staff I used as a crutch, and a slab of venison.
"Uhh...thanks," he replied, lifting up the staff and looking at it curiously. You could see he was grateful, but he was also bewildered.
"You use that to whack them to death," Elini said.
"I thought you had to know spells to use this thing," Danny replied.
"Well, you don't know any spells, do you?" Elini asked. Danny shook his head. "So you'll have to stick to whacking them. Don't worry, boy; whacking can kill."
"And you can whack meat with the staff to tenderize it," I added.
"Oh...oh, yeah!"

Te'ijal slapped him on his butt to move forward. "What are you waiting for? Plump yourself up! Baboosh, Juicy! See ya!"

Danny got out of the Wildwoods fine, we think. There was no sign of bloodshed on the way out, so I guess the guy's got a lot of luck left.

We're back in Clearwater, in Rhen's house. We gave Danny's letter to his mother, who could've burst with relief and joy at the news that her son is still alive. When she read his letter, however, she started frowning. "Naughty, naughty boy. Made his mother worry for ages. And you'd think he'd at least make his writing legible when he finally writes home!" Apparently, Danny has been thinking of traveling to some place in the Western Isle. We can't tell exactly where though, because his writing got messed up. Probably when Tei'jal almost smooched/bit him on the cheek.

We have a druid now. Armaiti, the Druid of Agriculture. He's silent and always looks sleepy, but quite kind. As a reward for saving him, he gave us a Merchant Card to use to enter the Peninsula via the Peninsula Trade Route (because the guy guarding the entrance is strict and charm-proof; we can't get past him without one of those things).

Dinner was fun. It was amusing to note that Tailor Darzon and his wife didn't look shocked at all when Armaiti walked into the house with us in full druid attire.
"Ah, Armaiti, how's it going?"
"Hmm...I was going to have a new kind of apple tree spread out into the Highlands; I've been developing it for almost a decade. But then a daeva came in when I was taking an afternoon nap and took my soul, freezing me for quite a while...these kids got back my soul and thawed me out," Armaiti said, winking at us.
Rhen's mother looked curious. "The apples from the tree you were developing; what are their special properties?"
"Well, for one, they turn red twice as quickly as the normal kind, and stay ripe for twice as long. The average size of this particular apple is...well, as big as this young man's orb," he answered, pointing to my water orb, which is quite big. "The taste I did not seek to change, because, as we all know, the apples here taste great already." Te'ijal nodded. Rhen's mom was still digesting the info Armaiti spilled, with an expression of awe.
"When are those apples going to be released?" Te'ijal piped up.
"Hmm...it's been more or less two months since I got to work on them; I'm not sure about the seeds, but the seedlings I'd kept must be dead by now. Anyway, these seeds¾" he reached into his pocket, searching. "Uhh...the seeds are gone. I think the daeva must have taken them or something. I don't think I would have dropped any one the way. I think I'm gonna have to spend a year making them again; at least I already know how to."
"Oh," Te'ijal and Mrs. Darzon both said, oozing with disappointment. The subject was left.

We've decided to go to Aveyond and drop Armaiti off before we head off to Sedona and take a look around. Armaiti wants to go to sleep in Aveyond as soon as possible, because "I do miss my friends, and I feel like I hamper your journey to some degree because I walk slowly," he said, with a chuckle.

So yeah. I'm excited to go to Sedona, and so are all the rest; Mrs. Darzon tells us the town is the best city there is in the whole Arishta Isles, beaten only by Thais before it fell.

So funny

Quote:Tawrich stole apple seeds. Wow. That guy sure have a taste like Barbossa did.

Sorry for the weirdness. In my head Tawrich, the skeleton-daeva who stole Armaiti's soul (hey, it rhymed) acts and talks like a pirate. So... when you mentioned apples, well...Barbossa came to mind.

<3 <3 <3 I love this diary! =D Gab as usual- awesome update!

That was amazing (like usual) it was so funny! ^^ I just love love love the way you portray te'ijal!

Awesome! I <3 it! Keep writing!

great update........! Hope this will go on

AWESOME!
really quite nice and funny!
great job!

Awesome!!!!! I love 'em

*counts off daevas* Soo... we only have Tawrich so far.

I really can't wait for your rendition of the fight with Agas because you stayed true to canon yet make it so much fun. After all, he's the only daeva who openly GLOATED at them ["Sun Priest, I know what you did thar, mwahahahahaha. Who's side are you on?"]. Well, aside from Nanghaithya who went something along the lines of "Ahriman will reward me for defeating you" or something. I can't do that. I have to wreck canon in order to write anything...

My daeva fantard-ness is showing again. Ignore me.

The Danny/Teijal interaction was very amusing

I noticed I tend to not leave feedback very often.. but I am keeping up with these entries! Continuing to love each one ^__^!

Keep it up~

waiting for more updates. =)

same here! cant wait to read more....
