Title: 03/08/07 [#758] - Accidents, they happen
Post by: Distracting on March 08, 2007, 01:05:18 AM
What ever happened to her little crush on Jyrras? It must be a love-hate relationship.

(Ed: *innocent whistle*)

Yeah, I thought she found it fun to watch him shower from the tree outside the window. :)

OF course that just happened to be a "perk" of a job in her own words.  :boogie

Ouch.  So Jyrras confesses his love and suddenly Lorenda wants to move out?  Confess your love, lose a friend?

That's gotta hurt for Jyrras.

She's sensing tension from Jyrras, but doesn't know the origin.

Does this mean that Lorenda might move away and then we won't have to see Kira for like, ever again!
That would be peachy keen with me.


I sure hope Jy is up to par on his Linkin Park.

Wow... guess we know where Kira's mind is... in her stomach.

Officially Jyrras didn't confess anything to Lorenda so the question I have is this.  Why is Lorenda moving out?
Title: Re: 03/08/07 - Accidents, they happen
Post by: MaskedRetriever on March 08, 2007, 01:17:26 AM
Eh, Lorenda's just covering her bases.

Also she might feel weird living with Jyjy if she's gonna start dating him.  Being pre-first-kiss while cohabitating might be... odd.

Of course I'd be *perfectly* amenable to them just going for the hard greasy nookie right off but hey.

So she either wants to move out because she likes him or because she doesn't and doesn't want it to be awkward. I'm guessing the latter.

Poor Jyrras, he really just can't get a break. Love unrequited all around. Reminds me of high school.

eh, my highschool life was full of heart-rending loneliness rather than "unrequited love" which was code standing for "I want to **** that girl" rather than any sort of actual "love"  A.K.A. the attraction other than the physical.

And they called intelligence a "blessing."


Anyway, this comic explains EXACTLY why I don't let my parents in on anything 'cause they assume they already know what I'm gonna do.(and I end up doing the exact opposite)

Yes, but telling nothing at all is even worse.

Nah.  I don't think it uses apostrophes like that, and you can tell Welsh by the way it uses 'w' and 'y' as vowels, e.g. 'cwm' or 'ystrad'.

Man if my mom is like that I'll be happy as a clam.

Anyway WTF? is today beat down Jy-Jy day? man that roorat can't catch a break here. I know in the past he told Lorenda how he feels about her (can't remember issue #) and she's is moving out? There has to be a reason for it, right now Jy-Jy has a serious crush on Abel which at this point I don't know when he will finally aske Abel out.

I feel he is losing the one true love Lorenda and he dosen't say how he feels for her.

*Arrrrrrgh* why can't relationships could be easy?

I'm gonna have to agree that shes asking to cover her bases, she can tell something is bothering Jy, but he hasn't really stopped and talked about it with her yet. She also might be starting to feel a bit like a freeloader. But i guess time will tell on her actual intentions.

And Lorenda's mom is so funny lol, i would also guess D'r is short for something, but in a fantasy world i guess any name goes.

Nah. Lunch is lunch, dinner is the evening meal, or so I was brought up.

I understand various misguided fools think that dinner is the midday meal, and tea is the evening meal, but that's just wrong. ;-]

Speculation Time:

Lorenda: For the last time I'm not killing Jyrras.

Kria: It wouldn't exactly be unjustified. I've read that book, I know of your and Dan's relationship, and what kinds of things Jyrras has been doing with him behind your back.

Lorenda: What the hell are you talking about?!

I think maybe she's noticed Jyrass's habit of running hot and cold. She may be afraid if she stays he or she will do something to wreck their friendship--like her eating him in a fit of rage. Or something.  :P

I like it.

I never would try to think if Kria read that book Wildly published.

And many more questions like "so how long you and Dan been doing the thing?"

"What? are you talking about mom"

Endless speculation knowing Kria she will have a talk to Dan about "if you hurt my daughter I will rip out your spine and eat the marrows"

very funny Gabriel. But knowing Lorenda she will leave Jy-Jy's place with no explaination.

Jy-Jy should have seen the signals. I don't know Love is so confusing.

I really would like to see Jy and Lorenda ultimately get together. I mean, I think she would be a better (and more interesting) pairing with him than anyone else would. (And yes, I'll admit that I prefer to see straight pairings, despite how compelling the yaoi-generated angst can be in storytelling). Is anyone else pulling for "JyLo"?  :mowwink

Post by: Manawolf on March 08, 2007, 05:24:44 PM
I've made it quite obvious, and we've already eliminated the JyDan possibility, and Abel probably isn't interested in getting attached to another person he may end up losing like everyone else.

Post by: Boog on March 08, 2007, 07:17:10 PM
So, Lorenda's just going to cut all ties with Jyrras, or simply feels awkward living in the house of a guy she knows likes her? And on a side note, it's a little hard to tell if Kria's kidding.

So, this D'r guy... My guess is Mythos. From what I've seen, Demons, angels, beings, cui, and most of the rest tend toward more pronouncable names. That leaves Mythos, Insectis and Mer. Seeing as two of those tend to avoid everyone else, D'r's probably a Mythos.

Why would they need one?  Jyrras might not have been expressing himself well, but his meaning was clear.

I still think that Jyrras/Kria would be the best pairing.  Jyrras is the only thing, creature or being, who could wind up beating Kria.

I might join in.  Except I'd start talking about all the cute girls while braiding Jyrras' hair.

I know I think it should be fair that they should have that heart to heart moment lock the doors disconnect the phones just Jyrass and Lorenda alone and talking this out.

I love a good romance story but she is leaving because of mixed signals that Jyrass is sending to Lorenda but as this arc is forming i have this feeling she will come back and realized she want that roorat all to herself.

Hey that's my 2 cents for this matter.
