-But PJ, what if 667 doesn't exist?
-Then I can't affront it by not writing.
-And what if it wasn't God who gave me my writing skills?
-What if some supreme evil being did?
-Then if I didn't write, I'd be affronting some evil being, which I guess is good.
-Anyway, I don't really have time to write a story.
-It's not like I can think of coherent plotlines, either.
-I went out to dinner last night with my parents.
-We went to a Japanese restaurant.
-I had (cooked) fish, which was pretty good, athough I'm not a big fan of Japanese food.
-Then some friends of my parents came to visit.
-They brought me a late birthday present: a stuffed zombie bunny.
-http://shop.store.yahoo.com/incomics/zombiebunny.html
-I just heard a weird scratching noise.

-If 667 doesn't exist...well, then you would be delusional
-And I would be a figment of your imagination, so what I say would have little worth
-Figment of your imagination or not, you'd still be admired and receive many positive comments, I'm sure
-Which is always nice
-And if your power was given to you by an evil power, then there will surely be a good power to counterbalance this, which would do its best to make your evil gift do good
-So basically, it's out of your hands, then, and it doesn't matter what you do
-So you still aught to write
-I just saw 10 Things I hate about you
-I know, cheesy american movie
-But I'm a sucker for romance acompanied by catchy music
-I'm in a very meaningful and deep mood right now
-Which fits perfectly with the story I'm planning which involves a huge amount of fate
-So much, in fact, that the actual story is called "Fate"
-It was based on The Dragon Reborn, of the Wheel of Time series
-I'm ashamed to say I've stolen quite a bit
-But still, it's an awesome story
-Or, at least, I hope it is
-I've always wanted to write a fate story
-I guess now is my chance...
-Good night, 667

[Antenora]

-Maybe I'm just the product of your imagination, PJ.
-In which case anything I write is just something you imagined, which means that....something.
-If you imagined me, you can just imagine me writing something.
-My teachers are always making fun of each other, indeed.
-I hear a lot about a history teacher named Mr S, whom I've never had, who supposedly gives a lot of work.
-Everyone talks about Ms M, though.
-She's a cool teacher, but very challenging.
-I'm going to try playing Grow RPG again.
-I think I've figured out the order of most of the items, but there are a few that I still can't get to Level Max.
-I kept meaning to play it yesterday, but didn't have much time in the afternoon.
-I printed off a paragraph of anecdotal stuff about my family for my photography family tree project.
-I'll probably put the whole thing together a bit later, whenever I have time.
-And I need to work more on that literature project at some point today.

[Dante]

-That's an odd coincidence.
-A few years ago, I had a history teacher called Mr. S., who gave a lot of work.
-He set us a project on Henry VIII in our first lesson.
-Also, his name was ironic.
-I expect I've mentioned him before.
-He's the one who once told me "Assume nothing!"
-And there was something else I was going to say about him, but I've forgotten it now.
-Oh, wait, it wasn't about him.
-I was going to say that we do far too much work on the Tudors in History at my school, and not enough on anything else.
-I'm in a bit of a bad mood right now.
-Mother's saying that she doesn't want to go out for a walk, as she's ill.
-Well, neither do I, but no doubt I'm going to have to traipse about somewhere damp.
-Father's just turned up.
-We've decided to go walking at B., which is a nice short walk.
-Mother's asked Father to pass her a book by two individuals with complicated, unlikely names.
-She says that she was meant to read it in French, but she found a translation somewhere and couldn't be bothered to do it properly.
-Anyway, I'll be going soon.
-I'll be back later.

[Antenora]

-Well, I got some literature writing stuff done.
-Not much, really, but it's a start.
-I'll try to do more on that project later.
-Since we have to write a total of 20 short paragraphs in response to quotes, I'm trying to do at least one a day.
-I'll be going out with my family soon.
-We're going to a craft fair someplace.
-I think I've been to this fair before, years ago, but I don't remember anything about it.
-It'll probably be a long drive.
-Most of my history classes have focused on more recent history(from World War I onwards).
-We'd spend about a week on everything up to the Revolutionary War, including the Indians who lived in the US before the settlers arrived, and a bit of European history.

[Dante]

-My History classes have been similarly focussed.
-We'd been doing the two World Wars for three years by the time I finished Year 11.
-And more 20th century stuff in those last two years.
-For some reason, the curriculum didn't require us to be taught how WWII, the Cold War, and the Vietnam war ended.
-I think somebody asked once about one of them, and got the helpful answer "We won."
-Before all that, it was just a brief look at the Romans - entirely related to their influence on Britain, of course - and Tudors, Tudors, Tudors.
-Oh, and a couple of weeks on slavery.
-It's Tudors in Year 12/13 History as well, which is why I didn't take it.
-And in primary school, I think we took a very brief and uneducational look at the Egyptians, and possibly we looked at - gasp - the Tudors.
-Really, it's amazing that I know anything else at all.
-I've read up on most other stuff by myself.
-Anyway, I've had some ideas for stuff I could write.
-More information possibly never.
-Oh, and I'm back from my walk.
-It wasn't too bad.
-And it was pretty short, too.
-And we came across a man and a dog.
-The latter ran away from us in fright.
-I can honestly say that no other dog has ever behaved like that around us before.
-If only they all did.
-It looks sunny outside against the clouds.
-The garden appears fairly shaded, though.

[Sixteen]

-I have finished writing my Esmé-Olaf story.
-I don't have a name for it, though.
-I was thinking Esmé and Olaf: A History but that's rather dull.
-It has seven chapters.
-I don't know when I'll post it.
-I don't like History.
-The subject, that is.
-Thankfully, I only do a five-week course of it this year and I can drop it altogether at the end.
-I don't mind Ancient History, but for my Leaving Cert. (that's the course I do for the next three years) it's all about modern History.
-You know Wars and Governments.
-And Ireland's Modern History is hard to get your head around.
-So I think I'll drop it.
-I'll do Geography instead.
-The book I ordered from Amazon won't even be dispatched until tomorrow.
-I wonder if I'll ever get it.
-TheNamelessNovel.com has two pieces/tasks on the way.
-That's good.
-Wow!
-The sky has just gone incredibly dark.
-There's a HUGE black cloud blocking out all the light.
-I'm going to try Grow RPG again.

[SF]

-all this talk about imaginations and illusions is confusing me
-today I about fell asleep in church, and I'm still very tired
-it's ridiculously cold in my house
-it's about 55º outside, and just two days ago it was 80º
-Ohio weather is crazy
-I still have homework to do *gag*
-I might go over Nick's house today, but I'm not sure yet
-My hair is curly today
-It hasn't been in a while, so I decided to do it that way today
-I'm sore from gym
-Stupid push-ups
-*yawn*

[Sixteen]

-Hooray!
-I've beaten Grow RPG.
-The correct order is House, Tree, Castle, Water, Tower, Rock, Chest and Stairs.
-I'll try Grow Cube next.
-Snicket-Face, I think I liked your user name the way it was.
-Your new one makes the face look sad.
-The sky has brightened up a little bit.
-It still looks horrible.

-I agree
-I'll change it back
-I'm doing homework, I've just finished History and have Physical Science left
-I'm about to eat some vegetable beef stew for lunch, as I'm still freezing *shiver*

[Antenora]

-Yay for beating Grow RPG.
-I guess I get some credit for using an order of things that was pretty close to the correct one, though not exactly the same.
-I was putting the staircase either second or third, and my sister said it should go last.
-I had fun at the craft fair.
-Although I didn't buy anything, I liked just looking around.
-There was really nice jewelry, but I couldn't afford it.
-I got a cinnamon roll to eat.
-Then we went to a little Japanese bookstore.
-My sister bought a manga book and some origami paper.
-I found a book called The Hidden Messages in Water, which is pretty interesting.

[Dante]

-Grow RPG was great fun.
-I didn't figure out Grow Cube on my own, but I figured out Grow and Grow RPG on my own.
-My problem with Grow RPG was not knowing the significance of the trees.
-Once I understood that, I managed to finish it.
-Although why the boulders need to be at max I will never know.
-Hooray for new Nameless Novel pieces.
-Fortunately, I don't go into school until late on Monday mornings, so I'll have plenty of time around here.
-I'll probably have to do some Government homework tomorrow, which I delayed from Friday by handing my book in.
-However, I shouldn't get homework in anything else.
-And the Government stuff didn't look hard - just a few questions on gender and voting behaviour.
-The last question requires us to discuss other factors which affect voting behaviour, though, so it'll probably require lots of boring writing.
-And I think I'm getting a headache.
-That's so unfair.
-I haven't even spent that much time on the computer today.
--Ish.
-I spent quite a lot of time after dinner drawing and scanning.
-Also, I was very bored at dinner.
-Can I hear the voice of Michael Howard from the lounge?
-Ah, it's a humorous satirical program.
-When they do a sketch rather than a stand-up, I might go watch.
-I might not post here again this evening.
-Hm, now what else should I say?
-I feel like there's something more I should be saying.
-Black night has fallen here, and the sky is a pit.
-Although one of the outside lights is on.
-A cat probably set it off.
-Headache, headache.

[Charles Vane]

Sometimes I think there are boiling poeple in my coffee.
I know its odd but I tell you I wonder. Small people, in my coffee. Invisble to the eye they are, invisible to all the senses.
I should really convince someone to do that piece with me.
I have a magic wand.
Magic wands really should be harder to break in half, they're magic.
They should be protected by invisible forces and not defeated by table legs.

-If you imagined me, you can just imagine me writing something.

-Well, something THIS comlex I wouldn't be able to control
-Like a dream, I can't MAKE things happen, they just do
-Which is why I'm still arguing for you to write
-Because, so far, 667 has followed the laws of the real world, so I'm going to take real world approaches to getting my aims
-I.e discussing the subject and trying to convince the opposition
-So, Antenora, YOU LOSE
-Now you HAVE to write
-Oh, wait, there's still the possibility that we're all figments of someone else's...for instance, Dante's imagination
-What happens then?
-*ponders*
-Well....assuming that Dante has no control over what happens in his mind in the 667 department (the dream analogy), and since we don't know his opinion about you writing, Nora, then...
-Well, Dante's 667 probably still follows the natural way of the world
-In which I, PJ, (who likes to argue) would argue about something he wanted to occur
-I know, I know, it sounds sketchy
-But still, if this is Dante's imagination, then you still aught to write
-Just in case
-Because, if this IS all Dante's imagination
-Then, well, I guess he would be our God, wouldn't he?
-Of sorts
-He created us, at least
-Kind of like that thing in Sophie's World
-And now, school time!

[Antenora]

-Sometimes I wonder if some aspects of reality are just my imagination.
-In particular, I wonder if I created 667.
-Not that I founded the forum, but that I imagined it.
-Since it's a creation of my subconcious mind, I can't control what happens here, or something like that.
-If I'm a creation of Dante's imagination, he decides(maybe subconciously) what I do.
-And if he imagined me, would I know it?
-I saw the Wallace and Grommit movie.
-It was great.
-However, I'm a bit disappointed that they didn't show a trailer for Goblet of Fire.
-A few minutes ago, the power went out for a minute and the computer restarted itself.
-Which was annoying, because I was in the middle of something.

[jemima]

-I practically spent the whole day working on my Halloween costume.
-I'm going to be Jemima from Cats.
-I was working on her tail.
-It's basically done, but I need to add the belt to it.
-It looks really good.
-With black, white, and red in it.
-I wonder why the U.S.'s colors are red, white, and blue.
-How come they can't be black, red, and white?
-That would look better.
-I'm happy BSam is back.
-He can make us laugh again.
-Ha ha ha.
-Wait, no joke was made.
-I have a headache.
-Because I was working all day on the tail.
-I need to get a unitard.
-And dye to dye it.
-Or maybe I should just be Victoria from Cats, who is all white and would basically need no work.
-That I could go with.
-Owww, I better go
-My head is hurter more.
-Buh-bye.
