Welcome, maybe you're the savior we've needed to save this board form inactivity.

[CoralSkywalker]

Hiya welcome!!

Anne Rice, ah finally another fan! =P
And oO I have to read 'Ancient Mariner' for uni for tomorrow!! I read it last year as well, and kind of liked it.. As I like all Romantic literature

[Mystic Ice]

krazor: I can certainly ramble about metal all day, that's not a problem. A lot of people I know online and in real life refer to me as a metal encyclopedia. Whether that makes me cool or the biggest dork ever, well that is up for debate.

CoralSkywalker: I really used to dislike Anne Rice because I thought she was over hyped and her stories actually rather dry. I picked up The Vampire Lestat at a flea market one day because I had a dollar and nothing to do. And then I ate every bad word I ever said about the woman. I've been hooked ever since. I guess my mindset just hadn't been right the first time I tried to read her works.

As far as your reading assignment goes, I suggest playing the accompanying Iron Maiden song in the background!

Woah, thanks encyclopedia for that information ;D
I had no idea that there was such a song.. Gah, my Maiden knowledge goes as far as Edward the Great

[Mystic Ice]

I know the song for the obvious previously stated reasons! Not a huge Maiden fan but I like that song, Alexander the Great and Hallowed be thy Name. I suppose I like the more historical/epic stuffs.

Hiya

[Black Core]

Hi, welcome to Darkwold

You've been partnered with your soulmate for 13 years? Since you were 12? OMG

[Mystic Ice]

Crazy isn't it? She and I are inseparable. All we do is have fun 24/7 and no one we know understands this at all. We met in high school and became best friends rather quickly. We were pretty much joined at the hip even then. Eventually we realized that it was meant to be and made it official when we were around 17. We couldn't keep boyfriends because we neglected them and always ended up spending more time together than with the guys we were supposed to be in relationships with. We've been living together for about 5 years now. We're both pretty rare...girls that are really into gaming, rp and metal. We love to debate politics, literature and philosophy and we're both artists. I think if we ever split up we'd be really bored and dissatisfied finding someone else to connect with so deeply.

[Black Core]

I know what you mean, I feel the same way about a girl but doesn't about me, I guess you just have to lucky to find someone who does *sigh*

[Seryn]

Nice to have you on board. Welcome!

[Mystic Ice]

Thanks! *salute*
