so okay here is my story thing
so one day I found myself walking in the forest by my house (not in the town)
I saw something or someone run through the bushes I stopped walking and reached into my pocket for my pocket knife.
I was pretty confused because nobody knew about this forest,then it hit me : only me and my BROTHER knew about this place.
Then Sheriff Bigby stepped out , 'Hello Lucy long time no see '
'haha no wonder since you went off' I replied sarcastically
'fair enough ' and he smiled.
we waked back to my house .
'so Bigby how did you end up here ?'
'ha straight to the point you didn't change much huh?'
'Bigby please tell me why are you here ?'
'okay okay so i'm on a case-'
'ah I see so you need my help ?' i raised my eye brows,
'yes, please Lucy you need to help me'
'okay old boy '
I opened the lock and I lead him inside.
' Brother tell me what you need help with'
'sigh okay so the case i'm on is about ,well umm I can't even figure it out '
'I see , so then where are you bringing me to ?' I asked cheerfully ,
'to Fabletown '
'hmm okay...' after 4 hours in the car we finally get there I step out and stretch
'hmm not a bad town I saw worse'
'Lucy , this way'
'okay' , I followed him in through the gates. then a woman stepped in our way and looked at Bigby
I looked her up and down , nothing suspicious,
'Bigby where the hell where you ?!, And who is this ? her voice was calm and soft but also very sharp.
'Snow I introduce you to my little sister Lucy Wolf' and he nodded to me
'Brother is this Snow White ?' i asked him
'Yes I am ' she answered
'I don't remember asking you ' and that was a mistake for both of us because I never liked other girls around my bro so , i lost control and my eyes turned yellow and the claws growed
' Sis calm down!'
when I heard him I flinched and said ' Sorry Miss.Snow I had a rough day '
'no problem'
'Bigby we need to talk Now'
so they went off , I looked after them but nothing, I was thinking of maybe going after them but i decided not to.
so I went off to explore , I saw a sign saying Puddin 'n' pie I was pretty curious but i wasn't THAT sure so I went on , I saw all kinds of shops and stuff , but I was thirsty and I saw a sign saying The Trip Trap , so I went in .
My first reaction was "WoW" I called for a drink and asked for a bartender and out came a quite kind looking woman,
'Hello what may I get you ?'
'may I have a midas gold please' she hands me the drink
'thanks' I opened the bottle and drank it
I went over to the cigarette machine and took a carton off Huff and Puff
'huh I taught only Sheriff smoke that '
'Really ?'
'yup'
'May I ask you your name?' , I'm Lucy'
'nice to meet you Lucy I'm Holly'
i sniffed the air and i knew she wasn't as happy as she looks , she noticed that
'Holly whats wrong?'
'sigh Lucy you really remind me of the Sheriff' and me at that got nervous but just before my eyes would turned yellow two men came in one with a glass eye and a missing arm and another with long blonde hair tied in a pony tail,
'Well hello there who are you ?' asked the one with the glass eye the other one bowed and winked at me , I blushed,
'well hello my name is Lucy and you two are?'
'my name is Jack ' replied the one with the blonde hair
'my name is Gren'
'Well nice to meet ya' i said
with that i took out Huff and Puff and light it
'Holly i want to play darts!'
'Jack I told you I don't have a clue on where the hell they are'
' um excuse me may I take a look around?'
'yeah sure Lucy ' so i sniffed around my eyes turned yellow but luckily I had my back to them, and picked up the cigarette machine with one hand and with the other I took out the darts , I put back the machine and handed the darts to Jack , They looked pretty astonished,
'uh thanks '
**'No problem'
'Why are you looking at me like that ?' i asked
' You picked it up with one h-h-hand' Holly stammered
'it flows in the family ' and i winked at them.
I took out another Huff and Puff and smoked it
'Holly can I get another Midas please?'
'yeah sure '
i opened it and started drinking it
'Guys do you know what the Puddin"n"Pie is by any chance?'
'wait you don't know? it's a stripper club '
'o-o-ohh then I won't go there i guess my br-'
the door opens and in stepped a wood cutter?
'Uh hi?'
'haha woody s'up?'
'hmph'
'okay then'
' okay wait so you are Woody the Huntsman?!'
'Yup'
'oh god'
'what's wrong?' coughs uh nothing
'okay'
' did any of you see Bigby around?' i asked
'nope' nope'nope' yes
'where woody where tell me please?'
'he was looking for what he said a girl his sister !'
'wait he has a sister ?'
'i guess so then'
' Woody , about where did you see him?'
'around well Puddin"n"Pie '
'WHAT!?' and there my eyes turned yellow , my claws grew and i ran ,
I saw him talking with a girl
Bigby talking >did you see a girl about this height , blah blah blah (back to normal)
'Bigby!' with that he turned and saw me
'Lucy!?' I slowly turned back to normal
behind me Holly,Gren,Jack and Woody were following me
'oh Bigby' he smiled at that
he pulled me in close
but that was cut short by the gang (Holly,Gren,Jack and woody)
'THE HELL IS GOING ON LUCY?!'
Guys wait i can explain-
HOW DO YOU KNOW EACH OTHER?!
(everyone starts arguing) so I turned into a wolf the third stage when i'm more of a wolf and i howled 'SHUT THE HELL UP EVERYONE!'
they did
But I kept my form
'Thank You'
' So what's everyone's problem one at a time please'
'Sis how do you know them ?'
'grrr since you went off with your little Snow White, I went off to explore aaaand you're pretty lucky I didn't go to Puddin"n"Pie!!' I answered
'So wait you're Brother and Sister?' asked Gren
'Yes we are Gren' I replied
'This question goes to the Sheriff what the hell were you doing here? at the puddin n pie?' asked Woody
'I umm-'
'He asked me if I saw Lucy' Nerissa answered
'hmph'
'You know Sheriff, your sister ain't that bad' said Holly
'hmph thanks'
'What about you jack?'
'meh nothing why would I question you ?' with that I slightly blushed**
________________________NEXT DAY_____________________________
Next day I woke at five in the morning, I dressed up as quietly as I could. I sneaked past the guard in the hall and went to explore the rest of the town I went to see if the Trip Trap was open and to my surprise it was! I knocked on the door ,
' Whose there ?!' asked Gren
'It's me Lucy '
' Come in' and he opened the door
'What are you doing up so early ?' he asked
' I wanted to explore the town' with that I took out a Huff and puff and smoked it.
'and I'm pretty hungry'
'huh what would you like for breakfast?'
'may I have bacon and eggs please'
'sure comin' right up!'
'Where is Holly?'
'dunno didn't see her all morning'
'oh,Gren do you know why she's upset by any chance?'
'well , her sister lily was murdered by that bastard Crane!'
'I see did ye bury her?'
'no Crane dumped her in the witching well!'
'oh... I'm sad to hear'
'here's your breakfast'
'haha thanks you're a life saver' then we smiled at each other.
'Umm Lucy , could you umm well -'
'yes what is it ?'
'you know when you found the darts for Jack'
'yes'
'Could you sniff out Holly you know maybe you could find her?'
'Sure ' I turned into the 2nd stage where i'm more of a human than a wolf and sniffed for her.
'That's strange '
'what is it ?'
'I can smell ..... no no no no no NO!!!!!' I grabbed Gren's arm and pulled him with me out of the building to the Woodlands Hotel I ran into Bigby's room.
'GOD LUCY CALM DOWN!' Gren shouted it was too late I turned into stage 3 .
'HURRY' I said
'BIGBY!!!'
'huh SIS?! what happened to you?' I smashed all mirrors , locked the door and sat down.
'Bigby ........ please listen-'
'Lucy what's wrong ?' Gren asked
' guys please listen, it's gulp BLOODY MARY is here we need to go !!'
'WHAT?!!?' asked Gren
'no no no it can't be ...... Oh God.'
'what's wrong bigby?' i asked, a tear rolled down my cheek,
'We need to go'
'I know Bigby pack your things and get Collin QUICKLY!'
We packed our things and sat in the car well at least I was the one driving ....
'where are we going?'
' to sigh to the place where me and Bigby used to play when we were little , before all of this then we got seperated for 3 years Anyways enough of this!' I stepped on the gas as hard as possible then after 30 mins we were there , I nearly cried but I knew that the little girl is gone and thats it!
I went inside and light a candle I went up to my bookshelf and pulled out a photo book with our whole family and the book cases came apart and i lead them down in silence.
_________________________________________HOUR LATER______________________________________________________________
'Sis when did you make this ?'
'well since you weren't here I had time beside hunting and stuff,'
'what stuff ?' Collin asked
'hmph none of your business Collin!'
'Collin shut up'
'How are you Gren ?
'f-f-f-fine thanks.'
'Oh God'
'Bigby you still didn't tell me what the case is about.'
'it was about 2 women being killed Lily and Faith.'
'Faith ,Faith Faith the Donkey skin princess ?'
'yes.....'
'okay this way' i opened the door and turned on the lights,
'Hi guys!' i said cheerfully they nodded back and Snow hugged me
'good to see you'
'yeah'
'Snow what are you doing here?!' asked Bigby
Bloody Mary stepped out from the shadows and pierced Bigby through the chest with a glass shard
NOOOOOOOO BIGB-
'Lucy lucy Wake up Lucy !!'
'huh ? wha- wha -what happened-' I saw Bigby standing there and i jumped into his arms and hugged him
'Whoa lucy are you alright?'
'uh yes that you are alive yes'
'What happened?
'You slipped on water , I was making tea and it was ready and the water spilled out and you went to take it off and you slipped.' said collin
'Oh Bigby i-i-i taught Bloody Mary killed you .' and i hugged him real tight .
'don't worry sis don't worry'
_______________________________________A WEEK LATER 5 IN THE MORNING___________________________________________________
I woke up at 5 in the morning , I dressed up as quickly as possible and made breakfast for Collin,Bigby,Gren,Holly,Woody,Jack and me . knocks on Bigby's door
'Bigby breakfast is ready get collin aswell it'll be on the table'
'okay get the others'

Dear Diary,
The weather is dreadful. It's too chilly outside, Therese is complaining about her vegetable garden, and we'r… moree generally snowed in. Bigby seems fine in the snow, practically prancing around in his underwear for god's sake. I yelled at him for not putting a shirt on when he went out to shovel the pathway. I'm sure he wouldn't get sick, but it's a matter of self-worth and dignity. My head still aches from time to time. Sometimes I feel a bit sad, not having most of my children home anymore. Ambrose is living with his wife, Lake. Winter is running her kingdom, and only comes around Holidays. She had a party there not too long ago, and I attended. It was brilliantly decorated with bright lights and illuminated icicles. Conner moved to Fabletown last year. Cinderella has taken the boy under her wing now that he's an adult. Whatever he wants to do is up to him, although I still feel sick to my stomach whenever I hear … [view original content]

Dear Diary: Today we got a rain storm. Georgie woke up around four this morning and found all but Emily in our bed; Peter especia… morelly is deathly afraid of thunder and lightning. Georgie and I allowed it. Trying to get five fearful children back into their own beds is like pulling teeth. Trust me. We've tried before. When the sun was rising, I found Emily curled up in her bed fast alseep. Too much like Georgie, it scares me. Kid can sleep through ANYTHING.
While playing outside, the kids found a black cat behind the house; I discovered this poor creature while putting the clean clothes away. Several towels were scattered in Junior's room. The six of them were in the closet, trying to clean the cat. Georgie wanted it gone; he's not much for cats and was worried the kids were too young for a responsibility like this. After much discussion and water works from Junior, Georgie gave in and let the kids keep the cat. Her name is Snowbal… [view original content]
A reflection of their personalities - very inventive! You might have to explain Bigby's to me though. It seems harsh to punish all of Fabletown to get revenge on one person, unless it is the whole of Fabletown she is seeking to get revenge on. Or maybe it's something else; I'll probably find out if I read on!
Glad to hear your sister's doing better - I scrolled down to one of your up to date posts.
Halloween Challenge
Part 7: Gluttony
"The Witch of Endor, huh?"
Georgie scanned the enormous book before him. He found it difficult… more to concentrate; Snow had become a substantial pile of Sand upon his arrival. Blue had to locate the book and show Georgie the areas marked for him.
"You alright, Georgie?"
"Yeah, just um...strange seeing Snow like that, I 'uppose."
"We were hoping it was only her skin turning, not the entire body. Honestly, she got it much easier than some of the Fables that came her for answers..."
Georgie sighed and scanned the chapter. He had his family to worry about; all but two of his children were showing the curse of sin.
"So, this witch. She have it out for someone or what?"
"See, that is the thing. Chapter states the witch is an illusion; Snow and I believe the witch is an outlet to our world and uses us as the host. The whole phone thing was her way of sending the curse out."
"I got that p… [view original content]
MEDDLING KIDS LINE! That line alone makes me happy ^.^ Yet what makes me more happier is knowing the Avengers defeated the mysterious man and sent Robert onto what will hopefully prove a more fulfilling life. Instead of just being creepy and evil. Good job!
The Costume Party, Conclusion
"Alright you fools, lets get this final challenge moving, before we begin remember what is at stake. And al… moreso only one person is aloud to answer..so pick NOW."
The group then decided to allow Robby to handle this one since he seemed very eager to handle this challenge. He then approached the evil doll and was prepared..
"Of course that would choose the smart ass... Question one, which movie was inspired by me...?"
"Childs Play."
Correct.... Question two, who is the name of the urban legend that who made her victims stand in the corner before she killed them.."
"Uh...was that the Blair Witch?"
"Not to bad...but don't get so cute. Question 3, what movie is this; He came home on Halloween."
"Halloween 1978."
" Question 4, a monster with a Pumkin as a Head, this is a movie."
"If i recall the movie you are talking about, the monster did'nt actually have a pumpkins as a head.."

Glad to hear things have been good for you. I really enjoyed this chapter because it was a real insight into how Ashlyn thinks, and maybe I share a couple of those thoughts sometimes. xD
Ashlyn sat on the corner of the street, hunched over and sitting next to her mundy friends from school. They were all losers to her, and the… more real reason she hung out with these Green Day bassist wannabes was because she seemed to fit in with their crowd. She didn't necessarily agree with all of their moral choices; She'd been raised better than that. She just didn't want to stick out like a sore thumb. Her hands curled around a hot cup of Starbucks, a cool wind blowing through that signaled another season of falling leaves and pumpkin spice flavored everything.
Ugh, how she hated pumpkin spice. Her coffee, the same old blend of hazelnut creamer and dark roast, made it's way down her throat. She welcomed the feeling, considering the rest of her was freezing. This boy who'd had his eyes on her the past 2 monthes of school, a Freshman named Zeke, made his way to an empty spot next to her. She only cringed slightly, not wanting him to notice t… [view original content]
Everyone in Fabletown is getting something; Bigby has his own, as does Snow and Georgie and the others. She has revenge on someone but I won't mention WHO; I'm going to add all that and then some in later chapters in regards to Katie and Jersey. I have my ideas.
A reflection of their personalities - very inventive! You might have to explain Bigby's to me though. It seems harsh to punish all of Fablet… moreown to get revenge on one person, unless it is the whole of Fabletown she is seeking to get revenge on.

Judging from your other comment - if I've understood it correctly - there's still more to discover about the Witch. It was quite easy in the end, but everyone had to endure a lot of torment, and I think it was probably the best torment Georgie could have gone through. (Although 'best torment' may not be the correct phrase.) If he would have been cursed and not his family, I think he'd be more or less okay with it because he would still be protecting his family that way.
Halloween October Challenge
Part 8: Sloth and returns
Georgie managed to drag the six kids and his lustful wife to the peak over looki… moreng the city of Fabletowm. The sun peaked over from the distance, as the group climbed over boulders and through the tall grass. Georgie found a giant tree on the peak, took off his hat and wiped the sweat growing on his forehead. The kids, still cursed with the sin, continued about as if was part of their daily routine.
Lyla leaned against the tree beside Georgie and carefully exposed her left breast. Georgie, unamused, shrugged and stared off into the distance. She traced her finger across his shoulders and giggled. Lyla took a seat on Georgie's lap and began nibbling on his neck.
"Hey there, handsome...my God look at you."
Georgie sighed. "The fuckin' 'ell is she at?"
"Who baby?" Lyla began grinding in Georgie's lap. "I'm right here and all you'll EVER need..."
"I..know, love. Just...can … [view original content]
Yes you did get that right; I have a plan with this Witch in my upcoming chapters. I figured the ending to this would be quick and no BS; they each went through hell like you said and in the end, Georgie suffered the most. He had to watch his entire family become the very thing he hated the most-his old self. The Witch WANTED him to suffer in ways those that he used to be involved with did back then.
Like I said, it may have SEEMED too easy but I have my ways; this won't be the last time we see this Witch. She has her reasons....like JJ said above, she DOES have an amulet of Porgie blood.

Ashlyn seems the most contrasting of the siblings to me, so I decided to focus on her for once. She seems tough to everyone, a girl who doesn't take no for an answer, but inside she's hurting. She takes after her aunt Mary a lot. I actually got the idea of what to with her right after I wrote this chapter XD
Glad to hear things have been good for you. I really enjoyed this chapter because it was a real insight into how Ashlyn thinks, and maybe I share a couple of those thoughts sometimes. xD
Yeah, it was better than I expected to be honest, because we did a TON of stuff that was really fun all day. Then on Sunday, I was home for maybe 2 minutes before leaving to do something else. Busy busy busy XD
Haha, great to hear you had a good time! Things have been pretty well for me, same old same old. :P
Always gotta be the alleyway, then again, that's New York for ya. XD

October
Dear Diary:
Hey. Georgie Porgie here. Lyla has the Flu. Rubbed some of that Vick's Vapor rub on her chest, had her take a … morebath and gave her medicine out the ass. She is currently asleep at the moment. Thought I'd take this moment to add a bit to this blasted thing.
Peter and Ethan's class are having Pumpkin and Ghost shapped cookies toady. The teacher baked a ton and its a treat for those that read ten books or more. It was a piece of cake for these two; they are indeed my book worms and were pleased to know about the treat for their work. Emily has Football practice today. Lyla a tad disappointed she could not attend but John and Nancy are going with me. I promised her they would take a ton of pictures and I'd record her performance on my phone. Katie is on Honor's Roll and Penny and Junior won 'Character Counts' for the month of October. So proud of the kids.
Lyla found out about me and Peter's trips to Central Park.… [view original content]
The return of her senses was a long and grueling process. First, her scent. She could smell enormous amounts of blood. She panicked, thinking it may have been her blood. Her body twitched on the ground, splashing around to get a feel of where she was. She was unbound, so she sat up. Ash was soaked from head to toe and every ounce of her mind and body desperately hoped it wasn't what she was smelling. She brought her hand to her face, then relaxed when she realized it was just water. But why was she lying in a puddle?
Her eyes found light, seeping in from the bottom crack of a door. It was about thirty feet ahead of her. She stood, her legs still partially asleep. Concluding that magic was being used on her, she cautiously approached this means of escape.
Wait. They would be expecting her to do this. She stopped short of the handle, hesitating to make another move. Surely, they heard her stirring just before. Her eyes, now adjusting more, searched for an exit. She noticed that the whole room was generally covered in water, her feet sloshing in it all. She also noticed how increasingly cold she felt, shivering every few seconds. The walls were cement bricks, covered in a layer of gunk and mold.
A window. It was the only one in the whole room, located at the top of the ceiling. She could maybe crawl through, if she could get it open. Careful not to make much more noise, she walked across the room to figure something out. She grabbed a nearby stool, stepping on top of it to see out the window. It was dark outside, save for a street light in the far distance. Where ever she was, it was not in the city. overgrown grass obstructed most of her view, preventing her from estimating what suburban area she may have been in. If she could recognize this place, maybe she could get home faster.
Her hands messed with the handle, but it was stuck. Pulling hard, she really envied her brother Noah's strength right about now. Just as it got loose, the door behind her swung open and filled the room with bright, illuminating light. She looked behind her, her heart leaping and her eyes squinting at the brightness.
"Not so fast, dinner." The man, whoever he was, said. Gathering the littlest shred of courage, Ashlyn quickly tossed the window open and used her abilities to fly to get out of her prison. She felt his hand wrap around her ankle just before she got out of the room entirely, his strength a million times greater than her own. She let out a fierce cry as her body was pulled back in, her arm getting caught and snapping. Broken, she knew it. Tears formed around the corners of her eyes, but she forced them in. She would NOT look weak, no matter how weak she really was.
The man slammed her on the ground, soaking her further in the water. She swallowed some, then choked it back up, her coughs producing blood.
"Mmm, that's very unusual blood you've got there. Didn't know we managed to catch a Lyncanthrope..." His voice was menacing and low, and every fiber of her being was revolted, yet also in an odd trance of adoration from it. She felt her body being picked up as if she were a feather by this strange man. Now with light to see his face, she realized how strikingly beautiful he was. His pale skin, and glowing eyes. They almost reminded her of her sister Scarlett's eyes. Scarlett was the only one who had red, glowing eyes out of all her siblings. But something was different about his. They were red too, but a much deeper, darker red. And the bloodlust was inherently present in them.
"What are you going to do to me?" Ashlyn managed to spit out. The man ignored her as he carried her up old wood stairs. When they got to the top, they were in a small kitchen. It look far underused, as if never cooked in before. He took her through the kitchen, to a little hallway. In the hallway was a closet of sorts, but opening it revealed another set of stairs. It was bright up there, as if someone was up there as well.
"Got to take you to the meeting," He explained. "We weren't expecting a child of our enemies."
Ashlyn gulped. She didn't like where this was going at all.
I think it's pretty obvious what they are, but I won't say it anyway I hope you like this one, I might go back and forth between her predicament and the issues Fabletown is having.
MEDDLING KIDS LINE! That line alone makes me happy ^.^ Yet what makes me more happier is knowing the Avengers defeated the mysterious man an… mored sent Robert onto what will hopefully prove a more fulfilling life. Instead of just being creepy and evil. Good job!
"It's late," I whispered to Tim as we sat on the couch together. He just curled his legs up, his arms wrapping around my body. The butterflies it creates in me never truly went away after all these years. The feeling, however, did not discern my worry.
"There are more times than I can count where Ash has stayed past 12 A.M. at some party with out even telling us. We shouldn't hold our breaths and worry when we don't need to worry." Tim tells me.
I sigh, my face burying itself into his chest. The television has the 11'o'clock news on, more mundane crises than one can count on two hands. My mind drifted to earlier, when Snow had contacted the Witches. Me, being apart of the thirteenth floor, had to crawl out of bed because I've been feeling rather under the weather these last few days. I attended the meeting, only to add another bit of stress onto my shoulders. The last thing I need is a missing child when we've got doppelgangers and duplicates running around.
What if my children aren't my real children? The thought haunted me to the point of tears.
"Shh, shh. It's alright sweetheart. Let's get ready for bed, right?" Tim consoled me. He stood up, first walking to our children's bedroom. He knocked, then peaked in. I did too, squeezing past him to say good night to our remaining cubs. I haven't done this since they were little.
"Hey Mom," Scar said, her head in a book. She always reads the books that Robbie finishes. It's a bit of a system they've worked out together.
I mentally counted the four that were in the room, each teenager doing their own thing. Noah was passed out, although I was sure he'd be up as soon as the rest were asleep to see his girlfriend. Ugh, I'm still unsure about the whole thing. I want to meet her, but I also have a strict 'In bed before 11:30' policy for myself. Any later and I wake up in the middle of the afternoon.
"Goodnight, kids," I say, turning the main light off. Immediately, Ash turns her bedside lamp on.
"Don't stay up too late you guys. You especially, Noah," Tim reminds them. I rejoin him in the doorway and feel his free arm slip around my waist.
"I won't, Dad. I promise we won't leave the apartment tonight, like you told us a thousand times."
"Alright, son. And no funny business. You should be married before you go on and-"
"Ew, Dad. Stop it there, before you make us barf." Elora said, her phone's light the only thing showing her face.
"Right. Well, just don't do it, okay?"
"Alright, Dad," Noah said. Tim smiled, then exited the room, and I followed close behind.
We went in our rooms, changing into pajamas. I watched him take his brace off, as I always do, and he lets it thud onto the wood floor. Our bodies collide, forming on single unit as the blankets are pulled over top of us. We kiss for a good long time.
His lips graze over my ears,"Stop worrying."
I shake my head slightly,"I will never stop worrying, and you know it."
Tim grunts softly,"Yeah, I know. She's okay, hon. I know it."
Defeated, I let Tim kiss me and satisfy himself for the night. It would feel all the more lovelier if I knew my daughter was home, safe and sound. We rest as soon as the clock strikes eleven-thirty.
Wow, it's been a while since I've written from Harmony's perspective. I've been missing it, honestly. More chapters later, if not then tomorrow. I hope you enjoy this, since I'm having a ton of fun writing it myself.
I love the 20's version of New York and other big cities. The whole noir feeling it gives off, and the way people were and how they acted is just so awesome and part of me wishes I was born in 1910 like my great-grandmother. I wish she were alive now, because I would have SO many questions and stuff to ask her. She died when she was 97, but I'm happy she's out of pain and stuff.
Hey, hey! Welcome to our group! I've only read the first part of your story, and thus, I already got a tip for you. (if you want to follow it)
For the majority of what you've written, I'd recommend that you use your enter key to evenly space out the paragraphs you have typed so far, so it'd be better for everyone else to read.
so okay here is my story thing
so one day I found myself walking in the forest by my house (not in the town)
I saw something or someone r… moreun through the bushes I stopped walking and reached into my pocket for my pocket knife.
I was pretty confused because nobody knew about this forest,then it hit me : only me and my BROTHER knew about this place.
Then Sheriff Bigby stepped out , 'Hello Lucy long time no see '
'haha no wonder since you went off' I replied sarcastically
'fair enough ' and he smiled.
we waked back to my house .
'so Bigby how did you end up here ?'
'ha straight to the point you didn't change much huh?'
'Bigby please tell me why are you here ?'
'okay okay so i'm on a case-'
'ah I see so you need my help ?' i raised my eye brows,
'yes, please Lucy you need to help me'
'okay old boy '
I opened the lock and I lead him inside.

What the holy F just happened here?! Who or WHAT is that thing after Ash? I was going to say someone you mentioned several times in past chapters but I THINK I'm wrong; the comment mentioned about him having glowing eyes pale skin made me toss that theory away. XD
Interesting. Not sure what to think, poor girl! Looking forward to the conclusion!
The return of her senses was a long and grueling process. First, her scent. She could smell enormous amounts of blood. She panicked, thinkin… moreg it may have been her blood. Her body twitched on the ground, splashing around to get a feel of where she was. She was unbound, so she sat up. Ash was soaked from head to toe and every ounce of her mind and body desperately hoped it wasn't what she was smelling. She brought her hand to her face, then relaxed when she realized it was just water. But why was she lying in a puddle?
Her eyes found light, seeping in from the bottom crack of a door. It was about thirty feet ahead of her. She stood, her legs still partially asleep. Concluding that magic was being used on her, she cautiously approached this means of escape.
Wait. They would be expecting her to do this. She stopped short of the handle, hesitating to make another move. Surely, they heard her stirring just before. Her eyes, now adjusting more… [view original content]

You're not the only one. I check this topic, and both the TWAU AND Telltale Talk section more frequently than I ever did before. It's like an unhealthy obsession of mine.
EDIT: At least I have legitimate reasons to talk to amazingly-awesome people in here. (yes, I'm talking about this here thread)

The more Penny says that Oliver wasn't being himself, the more I want to believe that there's a much better side to him. But it's hard to imagine given what he's done so far.
I really like the picture: Jersey's glasses and beard are looking fine!
Also, I was wondering about Peter and Ethan fighting when they were younger, and whether it was boys being boys, or to do with who Peter's father is and Georgie didn't want to mention it to Jersey? I'm not sure just how open they are about who Peter's father is, though there was that time at the Farm where the other Fables didn't want Peter there.
Chapter 26
Snake skinned boots
Enjoy.
Georgie and Jersey sat in the Den; a roaring fire crackled and continued to warm the r… moreoom up, as Jersey snuggled deeper into the couch. Georgie held a warm cup of tea in his hands, as the two men held various conversations. Lyla, Penny and Katie were in the kitchen; the girls played dolls and other childhood care-free games in the lving room. The hallways echoed with giggles and the ocassional argument. The rain unabating outside the window, trickling down the glass.
"How ya' feelin, Jersey?" Georgie reaches over and grabs his exposed foot. "Ya' look like fuckin' shit."
Jersey laughs. "Eh, been better. Had worse. Ya' know, this ain't nothin'! One time, these fuckin' mundies had an award out for my capture and there were hoardes of these things walkin' 'roud, lookin' for the blasted fuckin' Jersey Devil."
Georgie sips his tea. "Yeah...I KINDA 'member hearin' 'bout that."

A friendly welcome This has gotten off to an interesting start! How will Lucy assist Bigby on the case? It won't be by helping him become more friendly with Snow, that's for sure. :P I like how, when Lucy took Gren to Bigby in her dream, they remembered to take Colin, yet when Colin asks a question later they all tell him to shut up. xD And it's nice to know she has good culinary skills in order to cook for everyone.

so one day I found myself walking in the forest by my house (not in the town)
I saw something or someone run through the bushes I stopped walking and reached into my pocket for my pocket knife.
I was pretty confused because nobody knew about this forest,then it hit me : only me and my BROTHER knew about this place.
Then Sheriff Bigby stepped out , 'Hello Lucy long time no see '
'haha no wonder since you went off' I replied sarcastically
'fair enough ' and he smiled.
we waked back to my house .
'so Bigby how did you end up here ?'
'ha straight to the point you didn't change much huh?'
'Bigby please tell me why are you here ?'
'okay okay so i'm on a case-'
'ah I see so you need my help ?' i raised my eye brows,
'yes, please Lucy you need to help me'
'okay old boy '
I opened the lock and I lead him inside.
' Brother tell me what you need help with'
'sigh okay so the case i'm on is about ,well umm I can't even figure it out '
'I see , so then where are you bringing me to ?' I asked cheerfully ,
'to Fabletown '
'hmm okay...'
after 4 hours in the car we finally get there
I step out and stretch
'hmm not a bad town I saw worse'
'Lucy , this way'
'okay' , I followed him in through the gates.
then a woman stepped in our way and looked at Bigby
I looked her up and down , nothing suspicious,
'Bigby where the hell where you ?!, And who is this ? her voice was calm and soft but also very sharp.
'Snow I introduce you to my little sister Lucy Wolf' and he nodded to me
'Brother is this Snow White ?' i asked him
'Yes I am ' she answered
'I don't remember asking you ' and that was a mistake for both of us because I never liked other girls around my bro so , i lost control and my eyes turned yellow and the claws growed
' Sis calm down!'
when I heard him I flinched and said ' Sorry Miss.Snow I had a rough day '
'no problem'
'Bigby we need to talk Now'
so they went off , I looked after them but nothing, I was thinking of maybe going after them but i decided not to.
so I went off to explore , I saw a sign saying Puddin 'n' pie I was pretty curious but i wasn't THAT sure so I went on , I saw all kinds of shops and stuff , but I was thirsty and I saw a sign saying The Trip Trap , so I went in .
My first reaction was "WoW" I called for a drink and asked for a bartender and out came a quite kind looking woman,
'Hello what may I get you ?'
'may I have a midas gold please'
she hands me the drink
'thanks' I opened the bottle and drank it
I went over to the cigarette machine and took a carton off Huff and Puff
'huh I taught only Sheriff smoke that '
'Really ?'
'yup'
'May I ask you your name?' , I'm Lucy'
'nice to meet you Lucy I'm Holly'
i sniffed the air and i knew she wasn't as happy as she looks , she noticed that
'Holly whats wrong?'
'sigh Lucy you really remind me of the Sheriff' and me at that got nervous but just before my eyes would turned yellow two men came in one with a glass eye and a missing arm and another with long blonde hair tied in a pony tail,
'Well hello there who are you ?' asked the one with the glass eye the other one bowed and winked at me , I blushed,
'well hello my name is Lucy and you two are?'
'my name is Jack ' replied the one with the blonde hair
'my name is Gren'
'Well nice to meet ya' i said
with that i took out Huff and Puff and light it
'Holly i want to play darts!'
'Jack I told you I don't have a clue on where the hell they are'
' um excuse me may I take a look around?'
'yeah sure Lucy ' so i sniffed around my eyes turned yellow but luckily I had my back to them, and picked up the cigarette machine with one hand and with the other I took out the darts , I put back the machine and handed the darts to Jack , They looked pretty astonished,
'uh thanks '
**'No problem'
'Why are you looking at me like that ?' i asked
' You picked it up with one h-h-hand' Holly stammered
'it flows in the family ' and i winked at them.
I took out another Huff and Puff and smoked it
'Holly can I get another Midas please?'
'yeah sure '
i opened it and started drinking it
'Guys do you know what the Puddin"n"Pie is by any chance?'
'wait you don't know? it's a stripper club '
'o-o-ohh then I won't go there i guess my br-'
the door opens and in stepped a wood cutter?
'Uh hi?'
'haha woody s'up?'
'hmph'
'okay then'
' okay wait so you are Woody the Huntsman?!'
'Yup'
'oh god'
'what's wrong?'
coughs uh nothing
'okay'
' did any of you see Bigby around?' i asked
'nope' nope'nope' yes
'where woody where tell me please?'
'he was looking for what he said a girl his sister !'
'wait he has a sister ?'
'i guess so then'
' Woody , about where did you see him?'
'around well Puddin"n"Pie '
'WHAT!?' and there my eyes turned yellow , my claws grew and i ran ,
I saw him talking with a girl
Bigby talking >did you see a girl about this height , blah blah blah (back to normal)
'Bigby!' with that he turned and saw me
'Lucy!?' I slowly turned back to normal
behind me Holly,Gren,Jack and Woody were following me
'oh Bigby' he smiled at that
he pulled me in close
but that was cut short by the gang (Holly,Gren,Jack and woody)
'THE HELL IS GOING ON LUCY?!'
Guys wait i can explain-
HOW DO YOU KNOW EACH OTHER?!
(everyone starts arguing) so I turned into a wolf the third stage when i'm more of a wolf and i howled 'SHUT THE HELL UP EVERYONE!'
they did
But I kept my form
'Thank You'
' So what's everyone's problem one at a time please'
'Sis how do you know them ?'
'grrr since you went off with your little Snow White, I went off to explore aaaand you're pretty lucky I didn't go to Puddin"n"Pie!!' I answered
'So wait you're Brother and Sister?' asked Gren
'Yes we are Gren' I replied
'This question goes to the Sheriff what the hell were you doing here? at the puddin n pie?' asked Woody
'I umm-'
'He asked me if I saw Lucy' Nerissa answered
'hmph'
'You know Sheriff, your sister ain't that bad' said Holly
'hmph thanks'
'What about you jack?'
'meh nothing why would I question you ?' with that I slightly blushed**
________________________NEXT DAY_____________________________
Next day I woke at five in the morning, I dressed up as quietly as I could. I sneaked past the guard in the hall and went to explore the rest of the town I went to see if the Trip Trap was open and to my surprise it was! I knocked on the door ,
' Whose there ?!' asked Gren
'It's me Lucy '
' Come in' and he opened the door
'What are you doing up so early ?' he asked
' I wanted to explore the town' with that I took out a Huff and puff and smoked it.
'and I'm pretty hungry'
'huh what would you like for breakfast?'
'may I have bacon and eggs please'
'sure comin' right up!'
'Where is Holly?'
'dunno didn't see her all morning'
'oh,Gren do you know why she's upset by any chance?'
'well , her sister lily was murdered by that bastard Crane!'
'I see did ye bury her?'
'no Crane dumped her in the witching well!'
'oh... I'm sad to hear'
'here's your breakfast'
'haha thanks you're a life saver' then we smiled at each other.
'Umm Lucy , could you umm well -'
'yes what is it ?'
'you know when you found the darts for Jack'
'yes'
'Could you sniff out Holly you know maybe you could find her?'
'Sure ' I turned into the 2nd stage where i'm more of a human than a wolf and sniffed for her.
'That's strange '
'what is it ?'
'I can smell ..... no no no no no NO!!!!!' I grabbed Gren's arm and pulled him with me out of the building to the Woodlands Hotel I ran into Bigby's room.
'GOD LUCY CALM DOWN!' Gren shouted it was too late I turned into stage 3 .
'HURRY' I said
'BIGBY!!!'
'huh SIS?! what happened to you?' I smashed all mirrors , locked the door and sat down.
'Bigby ........ please listen-'
'Lucy what's wrong ?' Gren asked
' guys please listen, it's gulp BLOODY MARY is here we need to go !!'
'WHAT?!!?' asked Gren
'no no no it can't be ...... Oh God.'
'what's wrong bigby?' i asked, a tear rolled down my cheek,
'We need to go'
'I know Bigby pack your things and get Collin QUICKLY!'
We packed our things and sat in the car well at least I was the one driving ....
'where are we going?'
' to sigh to the place where me and Bigby used to play when we were little , before all of this then we got seperated for 3 years Anyways enough of this!' I stepped on the gas as hard as possible then after 30 mins we were there , I nearly cried but I knew that the little girl is gone and thats it!
I went inside and light a candle I went up to my bookshelf and pulled out a photo book with our whole family and the book cases came apart and i lead them down in silence.
_________________________________________HOUR LATER______________________________________________________________
'Sis when did you make this ?'
'well since you weren't here I had time beside hunting and stuff,'
'what stuff ?' Collin asked
'hmph none of your business Collin!'
'Collin shut up'
'How are you Gren ?
'f-f-f-fine thanks.'
'Oh God'
'Bigby you still didn't tell me what the case is about.'
'it was about 2 women being killed Lily and Faith.'
'Faith ,Faith Faith the Donkey skin princess ?'
'yes.....'
'okay this way' i opened the door and turned on the lights,
'Hi guys!' i said cheerfully they nodded back and Snow hugged me
'good to see you'
'yeah'
'Snow what are you doing here?!' asked Bigby
Bloody Mary stepped out from the shadows and pierced Bigby through the chest with a glass shard
NOOOOOOOO BIGB-
'Lucy lucy Wake up Lucy !!'
'huh ? wha- wha -what happened-' I saw Bigby standing there and i jumped into his arms and hugged him
'Whoa lucy are you alright?'
'uh yes that you are alive yes'
'What happened?
'You slipped on water , I was making tea and it was ready and the water spilled out and you went to take it off and you slipped.' said collin
'Oh Bigby i-i-i taught Bloody Mary killed you .' and i hugged him real tight .
'don't worry sis don't worry'
_______________________________________A WEEK LATER 5 IN THE MORNING___________________________________________________
I woke up at 5 in the morning , I dressed up as quickly as possible and made breakfast for Collin,Bigby,Gren,Holly,Woody,Jack and me .
knocks on Bigby's door
'Bigby breakfast is ready get collin aswell it'll be on the table'
'okay get the others'
'okay'
Trip Trap
knocks on door
'It's me Lucy, Breakfast at my house be quick.'
___________________________________________AT LUCY'S HOUSE___________________________________________________________
'well thank you Lucy for the breakfast ' everyone said
'no problem'
Well this is my story i'm Lucy.B.Wolf
But it's still not finished
Reading this reminded me of just how much Snow has gone through - she's a tough character! And it's nice to hear from her, so to speak!
What Georgie needs to remember, is that cats are great at keeping birds away.
Nice to see the kids cooperating!
I used to watch that when i was younger lol.
A reflection of their personalities - very inventive! You might have to explain Bigby's to me though. It seems harsh to punish all of Fabletown to get revenge on one person, unless it is the whole of Fabletown she is seeking to get revenge on. Or maybe it's something else; I'll probably find out if I read on!
Glad to hear your sister's doing better - I scrolled down to one of your up to date posts.
MEDDLING KIDS LINE! That line alone makes me happy ^.^ Yet what makes me more happier is knowing the Avengers defeated the mysterious man and sent Robert onto what will hopefully prove a more fulfilling life. Instead of just being creepy and evil. Good job!
Glad to hear things have been good for you.
I really enjoyed this chapter because it was a real insight into how Ashlyn thinks, and maybe I share a couple of those thoughts sometimes. xD
LOL Think I'm gonna add that in the next entry. Lyla SHOULD mention that. XD
Everyone in Fabletown is getting something; Bigby has his own, as does Snow and Georgie and the others. She has revenge on someone but I won't mention WHO; I'm going to add all that and then some in later chapters in regards to Katie and Jersey. I have my ideas.
Thank you.
Glad to know she is home.
Judging from your other comment - if I've understood it correctly - there's still more to discover about the Witch. It was quite easy in the end, but everyone had to endure a lot of torment, and I think it was probably the best torment Georgie could have gone through. (Although 'best torment' may not be the correct phrase.) If he would have been cursed and not his family, I think he'd be more or less okay with it because he would still be protecting his family that way.
Yes you did get that right; I have a plan with this Witch in my upcoming chapters. I figured the ending to this would be quick and no BS; they each went through hell like you said and in the end, Georgie suffered the most. He had to watch his entire family become the very thing he hated the most-his old self. The Witch WANTED him to suffer in ways those that he used to be involved with did back then.
Like I said, it may have SEEMED too easy but I have my ways; this won't be the last time we see this Witch. She has her reasons....like JJ said above, she DOES have an amulet of Porgie blood.
Yeah, the amulet! She has everyone's blood, if they all removed the curse, which seems very, very bad.
Ashlyn seems the most contrasting of the siblings to me, so I decided to focus on her for once. She seems tough to everyone, a girl who doesn't take no for an answer, but inside she's hurting. She takes after her aunt Mary a lot. I actually got the idea of what to with her right after I wrote this chapter XD
Yeah, it was better than I expected to be honest, because we did a TON of stuff that was really fun all day. Then on Sunday, I was home for maybe 2 minutes before leaving to do something else. Busy busy busy XD
Great to hear it!
Well, New York is New York. If you can't handle the city, you better get the hell out of it XD
Good to see a new face
I'll get on to reading your story, seems really interesting!
Hey that's a good thing though.
At least you seemed to have had fun; that's all that counts in the end. 
Mmm that first pic. <33
The return of her senses was a long and grueling process. First, her scent. She could smell enormous amounts of blood. She panicked, thinking it may have been her blood. Her body twitched on the ground, splashing around to get a feel of where she was. She was unbound, so she sat up. Ash was soaked from head to toe and every ounce of her mind and body desperately hoped it wasn't what she was smelling. She brought her hand to her face, then relaxed when she realized it was just water. But why was she lying in a puddle?
Her eyes found light, seeping in from the bottom crack of a door. It was about thirty feet ahead of her. She stood, her legs still partially asleep. Concluding that magic was being used on her, she cautiously approached this means of escape.
Wait. They would be expecting her to do this. She stopped short of the handle, hesitating to make another move. Surely, they heard her stirring just before. Her eyes, now adjusting more, searched for an exit. She noticed that the whole room was generally covered in water, her feet sloshing in it all. She also noticed how increasingly cold she felt, shivering every few seconds. The walls were cement bricks, covered in a layer of gunk and mold.
A window. It was the only one in the whole room, located at the top of the ceiling. She could maybe crawl through, if she could get it open. Careful not to make much more noise, she walked across the room to figure something out. She grabbed a nearby stool, stepping on top of it to see out the window. It was dark outside, save for a street light in the far distance. Where ever she was, it was not in the city. overgrown grass obstructed most of her view, preventing her from estimating what suburban area she may have been in. If she could recognize this place, maybe she could get home faster.
Her hands messed with the handle, but it was stuck. Pulling hard, she really envied her brother Noah's strength right about now. Just as it got loose, the door behind her swung open and filled the room with bright, illuminating light. She looked behind her, her heart leaping and her eyes squinting at the brightness.
"Not so fast, dinner." The man, whoever he was, said. Gathering the littlest shred of courage, Ashlyn quickly tossed the window open and used her abilities to fly to get out of her prison. She felt his hand wrap around her ankle just before she got out of the room entirely, his strength a million times greater than her own. She let out a fierce cry as her body was pulled back in, her arm getting caught and snapping. Broken, she knew it. Tears formed around the corners of her eyes, but she forced them in. She would NOT look weak, no matter how weak she really was.
The man slammed her on the ground, soaking her further in the water. She swallowed some, then choked it back up, her coughs producing blood.
"Mmm, that's very unusual blood you've got there. Didn't know we managed to catch a Lyncanthrope..." His voice was menacing and low, and every fiber of her being was revolted, yet also in an odd trance of adoration from it. She felt her body being picked up as if she were a feather by this strange man. Now with light to see his face, she realized how strikingly beautiful he was. His pale skin, and glowing eyes. They almost reminded her of her sister Scarlett's eyes. Scarlett was the only one who had red, glowing eyes out of all her siblings. But something was different about his. They were red too, but a much deeper, darker red. And the bloodlust was inherently present in them.
"What are you going to do to me?" Ashlyn managed to spit out. The man ignored her as he carried her up old wood stairs. When they got to the top, they were in a small kitchen. It look far underused, as if never cooked in before. He took her through the kitchen, to a little hallway. In the hallway was a closet of sorts, but opening it revealed another set of stairs. It was bright up there, as if someone was up there as well.
"Got to take you to the meeting," He explained. "We weren't expecting a child of our enemies."
Ashlyn gulped. She didn't like where this was going at all.
I think it's pretty obvious what they are, but I won't say it anyway
I hope you like this one, I might go back and forth between her predicament and the issues Fabletown is having.
The original Scooby Doo show and Scooby Movies will always have a special place in my heart.
As for Robert, he's having a good time at the farm... with good behavior of course.
Meanwhile...
"It's late," I whispered to Tim as we sat on the couch together. He just curled his legs up, his arms wrapping around my body. The butterflies it creates in me never truly went away after all these years. The feeling, however, did not discern my worry.
"There are more times than I can count where Ash has stayed past 12 A.M. at some party with out even telling us. We shouldn't hold our breaths and worry when we don't need to worry." Tim tells me.
I sigh, my face burying itself into his chest. The television has the 11'o'clock news on, more mundane crises than one can count on two hands. My mind drifted to earlier, when Snow had contacted the Witches. Me, being apart of the thirteenth floor, had to crawl out of bed because I've been feeling rather under the weather these last few days. I attended the meeting, only to add another bit of stress onto my shoulders. The last thing I need is a missing child when we've got doppelgangers and duplicates running around.
What if my children aren't my real children? The thought haunted me to the point of tears.
"Shh, shh. It's alright sweetheart. Let's get ready for bed, right?" Tim consoled me. He stood up, first walking to our children's bedroom. He knocked, then peaked in. I did too, squeezing past him to say good night to our remaining cubs. I haven't done this since they were little.
"Hey Mom," Scar said, her head in a book. She always reads the books that Robbie finishes. It's a bit of a system they've worked out together.
I mentally counted the four that were in the room, each teenager doing their own thing. Noah was passed out, although I was sure he'd be up as soon as the rest were asleep to see his girlfriend. Ugh, I'm still unsure about the whole thing. I want to meet her, but I also have a strict 'In bed before 11:30' policy for myself. Any later and I wake up in the middle of the afternoon.
"Goodnight, kids," I say, turning the main light off. Immediately, Ash turns her bedside lamp on.
"Don't stay up too late you guys. You especially, Noah," Tim reminds them. I rejoin him in the doorway and feel his free arm slip around my waist.
"I won't, Dad. I promise we won't leave the apartment tonight, like you told us a thousand times."
"Alright, son. And no funny business. You should be married before you go on and-"
"Ew, Dad. Stop it there, before you make us barf." Elora said, her phone's light the only thing showing her face.
"Right. Well, just don't do it, okay?"
"Alright, Dad," Noah said. Tim smiled, then exited the room, and I followed close behind.
We went in our rooms, changing into pajamas. I watched him take his brace off, as I always do, and he lets it thud onto the wood floor. Our bodies collide, forming on single unit as the blankets are pulled over top of us. We kiss for a good long time.
His lips graze over my ears,"Stop worrying."
I shake my head slightly,"I will never stop worrying, and you know it."
Tim grunts softly,"Yeah, I know. She's okay, hon. I know it."
Defeated, I let Tim kiss me and satisfy himself for the night. It would feel all the more lovelier if I knew my daughter was home, safe and sound. We rest as soon as the clock strikes eleven-thirty.
Wow, it's been a while since I've written from Harmony's perspective. I've been missing it, honestly. More chapters later, if not then tomorrow. I hope you enjoy this, since I'm having a ton of fun writing it myself.
Much respect, dude. :P
Yeah, I think I'd prefer the suburban or rural areas more than anywhere else. I still adore my city though. :P Nice to know you enjoy classic NYC too.
I love the 20's version of New York and other big cities. The whole noir feeling it gives off, and the way people were and how they acted is just so awesome and part of me wishes I was born in 1910 like my great-grandmother. I wish she were alive now, because I would have SO many questions and stuff to ask her. She died when she was 97, but I'm happy she's out of pain and stuff.
Hey, hey! Welcome to our group! I've only read the first part of your story, and thus, I already got a tip for you. (if you want to follow it)
For the majority of what you've written, I'd recommend that you use your enter key to evenly space out the paragraphs you have typed so far, so it'd be better for everyone else to read.
I feel exactly the same way about Chicago. I specifically liked the style of the forties-ish mobster suits back then.
Death is usually a pain-reliever in most cases, good to know your grams died peacefully. If you don't mind me sayin'.
.....Is it sad that as I go about my day, I frequently and more often than I should, check to see if there are any new comments on this forum?
Is it also sad that I'm pointing this out to myself by commenting on this forum, thus creating new comments on the forum?
Does your head hurt now like mine does?
XD
What the holy F just happened here?! Who or WHAT is that thing after Ash? I was going to say someone you mentioned several times in past chapters but I THINK I'm wrong; the comment mentioned about him having glowing eyes pale skin made me toss that theory away. XD
Interesting. Not sure what to think, poor girl!
Looking forward to the conclusion!
Like, just on THIS thread or TWAU thread all together? I'm usually on this thread and General Chat these days; not a lot to do anymore. When I have the time, I write or show off some images. Like everyone else, busy, busy, busy.
Welcome to the thread.
Hope to see more from you.
I enjoyed the story but agree with Dragon's comment; try hitting enter to break the paragraphs up into smaller, more easier sections to read. Other than that, this is a good start.
You're not the only one. I check this topic, and both the TWAU AND Telltale Talk section more frequently than I ever did before. It's like an unhealthy obsession of mine.
EDIT: At least I have legitimate reasons to talk to amazingly-awesome people in here. (yes, I'm talking about this here thread)
You make it sound like you almost regret being here. ;(
thank you
thank you for your advice
The more Penny says that Oliver wasn't being himself, the more I want to believe that there's a much better side to him. But it's hard to imagine given what he's done so far.
I really like the picture: Jersey's glasses and beard are looking fine!
Also, I was wondering about Peter and Ethan fighting when they were younger, and whether it was boys being boys, or to do with who Peter's father is and Georgie didn't want to mention it to Jersey? I'm not sure just how open they are about who Peter's father is, though there was that time at the Farm where the other Fables didn't want Peter there.
A friendly welcome
This has gotten off to an interesting start! How will Lucy assist Bigby on the case? It won't be by helping him become more friendly with Snow, that's for sure. :P I like how, when Lucy took Gren to Bigby in her dream, they remembered to take Colin, yet when Colin asks a question later they all tell him to shut up. xD And it's nice to know she has good culinary skills in order to cook for everyone.
