(I completely wanted you to suffer. Kidding, but oh well.) Pfft, for real? Oh gosh. XD I have a lot of similar conversations, only I'm the only indescive one and everyone is beyond done with me, haha. Hey, do you want to CC, if you don't mind me asking?? [Any fandom/interest anybody introduces me to is bound to a one-way path of suffering.]
Yep, for real! [When I'm so sarcastic people can't tell whether I'm being sarcastic when I say I'm not being sarcastic - it happens so much. xD] Well, I guess it depends when you go, but if you're on a busy street, those soulless kids [yes, Mads, middle-aged business men are kids] will mercilessly slam into you without apology, pfft. Wow, I'm really selling London. It's really a wonderful place. Come. xD
You're so lucky you hang out with people who aren't, though, we're all just awkward little weirdos who are all done with each other.
I'd love to! Continue last one or new one? ^_^(All fandoms/interests are.) Oh, gosh. xD (Amazing. Sarcasm should be a Pokemon move, one that confuses other Pokemon.) I don't know why I laughed so hard at you calling middle aged business men kids oh gosh. Oh, no. I'd hate that, especially since I value personal space and would probably shout something after them. Pfft, I guess. But awkward weirdo friends are the best. Whichever you'd like! ^^

Mads: I am going to pick up the next Mistborn book again. Ah, that's Brandon Sanderson, right? Nice! I haven't read that series, but I have read the first book of one of his other series', Steelheart.Mads: Yep. Good books, you should give them a try!

They are. Now I see why you hang out with me.
Okie dokie, I'll go back and look for it then! cx

You know the book's going to be good if you already like it from that early on! So, is it a genre you often read?

Good luck! A friend of mine played violin, and it seemed difficuuult. (Or maybe that's just because I know nothing about instruments and music, despite going into a music class (blindly, at that) tomorrow. Oh, no. XD) I would reccomend it if you can, haha. I love it. --- Nalin: But it is healthy. I was fine before. Adonjiah: You fainted. Nalin: I am fine. I think. *reaches for his other sweaters* Adonjiah: Nuh-uh. Not today. *picks him up and throws him over his shoulder* No. More. Sweater. Nalin: *sighs* Okay. You're right and smart. (Nalin's mommy. Another great nickname. I am crying.) (Aeron no) Akira: Why not? But that'd be fun. She'd never have to walk again - and walking sucks - if you could just carry her around all the time. You'd do her a big favor. *grins* Awesome. Swan: No wonder Aeron chuckles a lot. XD Akira: Bless. *takes it and shoves it into her mouth* I guess that's true. *shrugs* Eh. Ah, I knoww, I bet I'm going to try it once and compeltely flop, haha. But basically I don't have much to do at the moment, so I kind of just want to dedicate myself to doing something else. [And come on, it sounds pretty cool saying you can play the violin and piano, haha.] [Oh gosh, good luck with that! Is there an instrument you're playing or are you just taking music? It's mandatory for us up until this year, as well as drama and art, but this year we drop the ones we aren't doing for GCSE.]
Then I shall definitely seek it out! I have cartoon network so I can watch it there, but I should probably go back to the beginning first, haha. Though it doesn't matter in most cartoons, it seems as though it would matter here.
-------
Aeron - Perhaps you should give him lollipops instead. *glares at Polaris* Apparently that's meant to help addictions.
Polaris - Not everyone also has a weird obsession with sweets!
[Oh my gosh, that entire scene, he's literally his mum, what is this. *bows* It's apt, don't you think?]
[He's this close.]
Aeron - Well, I would hazard a guess it's a side-effect of the whole I'm cursed so I'm evil waahhh schtick I appear to be pulling here. It seems as though my body got a tiny bit weaker with every life, so... It's fair to say I'm at least around ten times weaker than the average male. Don't put ideas in her head. Besides, if I had to have her annoying little voice whingeing from up there all day every day, I'd possibly hurl myself off a bridge.
Polaris - You're taking this far too literally, big bro!
Mads - No wonder indeed #genericvillaintropesforthewin [Though I'm exempt from criticism because AZ makes fun of this xD]
Aeron - *suddenly remembers* Whoops... I forgot to check if that one's green.
Zeta - What?
Polaris - Oh dear!
Zeta - What?!
Aeron - This is bad... This is really bad...
Zeta - WOULD SOMEBODY PLEASE TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON. HAVE YOU ACCIDENTALLY POISONED HER.
Aeron - *sadly* I love the green ones...
Zeta - That was all it was?!
Polaris - One sec. Um, if you didn't check to see if it was green, surely you didn't check to see if it was pink?
Aeron - Ah... Sod it.
This where we left off? cx

Thunder:Okie dokie Mads: I would say yes but I don't usually stay with one particular genre often. Science Fiction is really good though I see! I love fantasy and science fiction, though I also love romance and comedy. What makes a great book, for me, is when a book combines all of those things.
It is, isn't it? Do you have any sci-fi favourites?

I don't mind some romance plots, but all romance YA novels make me sick. Probably because I didn't make an effort to read Twilight.

Mads: I usually can't choose a favourite anything so I'm going to have to say no to that. I don't think I've read an actual "comedy" genre book before.
Thunder: Those were my two main genres to read growing up so I feel that

It really is. I CAN'T EVEN WAIT TO WRITE THIS. I'M NOT GOING TO MENTION THAT IT'S POKEMON, I'M JUST GOING TO GIVE THEM SIMILAR NAMES AND MASSIVE HINTS. [Reminds me of Nico summoning the ghost of Hercules [is that right?] with a Happy Meal.] Why, thank you. xD
Nothing and everything, I like to say. [I'm a liar, I just think saying "as I like to say" makes me sound as though I have some semblance of balance and order amongst the chaotic mess that is my life.] But mostly awful, pfft.

They are rather dreadful, I have to agree, but more often than not ones that aren't meant to be romances, but gradually disregard the actual genre [mostly dystopia] to make room for the romance, like Divergent.

Thunder: Those were my two main genres to read growing up so I feel that I find it impossible to do that, too, haha. I just reel off a list with a minimum of ten items. Hm, I don't come across them that much, either. Mostly they tend to be nestled within the fantasy genre, like Shadowmagic or How To Train Your Dragon. A couple I can think of that I've read are Starter for Ten and The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole, which are both brilliant books.

Mads: I couldn't even finish the first Divergent book. It felt boring to me, though the first film was good. However, even the film series gave up after Insurgent. The final film is going to be a TV movie due to the poor box office performance of Allegiant.

The final film is going to be a TV movie due to the poor box office performance of Allegiant. I actually really enjoyed the first book, and I recalled enjoying the second [though that was years ago, when I didn't really read particularly interesting books] though I despised the third. I did manage to finish it, as I try and finish books, though I wish I hadn't bothered.
I also enjoyed the first film! Though I wasn't particularly a fan of the second film, and the third was absolutely dreadful. I feel like they literally just gave up, like you said. Is it really? I didn't know. Wow.

I really agree with you there! I started reading the series around the same time I started reading Warriors, when I was around seven, I think, so seven years ago. So yep, around the same time you read it, too! I love them both - I read the entire series and at first I was a little annoyed at how different everything was, but as I got older I accepted that they were different entities and both very good in their own right! [Though the books will always have a special place in my heart.]

Mads: It is true. How sad. The movie series could have so much potential, but they let it slip. It did - I think the first film worked well because it pretty much stuck completely to the book, but by the third film I wouldn't have even known they were based off of the same book. Like the Maze Runner. I enjoyed the first film a lot, but I thought the second was pretty rubbish. Though I still found it pretty entertaining.
