*sips Chai latte* this isn't mah problem.

If I was in the MWT. . . . . . . .

Alt walked down the street, a chai latte and a scone in his hand. He mercilessly nommed his scone, before stopping and looking at an ornate thread-building; it was called the MWT, and had almost 200 pages! Alt was amazed at this marvel, and his chai latte fell to the floor in shock. He shrugged, said "Whatever," and wa;ked off into the setting Sun.

Is not... But come on, you know I would only choose a title like that if I had some interesting idea with it.

*flail* I do! Seriously! You can trust me when I say I don't doubt your ability to think up good titles etc.!!!

I only understood the significance of the title when I started thinking about Strop's story, then read your brief. Ordinarily I've been in the habit of thinking up my own titles specific to Strop's context because I felt it would be a bit awkward to have multiple storylines with the same chapter titles, but this one was much too good to pass up.

I know. That is why I chose it. Because it is awesome.

More awesome coming right up!

Couldn't quite manage the same haul, and will slow down now that I've gotten much of the idea down. I also fixed a couple of the pages from earlier.

WARNING, some of the images may be a bit gruesome.

So throughout the course of the MWT, Strop actually got bashed around quite a bit, and picked up a list of injuries to rival Kai's. Well, probably not, but he's had quite a number pulled on him.

Strop actually unmasked! And boy does he look like crap. Nothing for a reality check on your vitals like a good dose of hematemesis! Carlie tells Strop something he told Kai way back in chapter 4.

Strop succumbs to haemorrhagic shock. But permanently?

In a distant tower in the distant ArmorCastle...note that we've now cut to Strop's room, the unfinished concept for which is here. Strop...likes horses.

I am in fact referencing a poem by Kenneth Slessor here, where bells means funeral bells. Strop is feeling a little cathartic.

Page 21:



Strop realises his Zen peace isn't nearly perfect.

Page 22:



Carlie, in her dyspnoeic brevity, inadvertantly provides Strop with the perfect answer to his conundrum.

Page 23:



Woah, it's Orlestat. Right about now a whole lot of things should be making more sense!

By the way, Carlie is covering Strop so that he isn't naked anymore.

That's it for now, stay tuned for the rest of the epilogue!

Wait...did I just authorfail?

*thinks*

Haha, maybe I was referencing both. I did have Five Bells in mind when scribbling that page.

It will be next to impossible to make sense of the story unless you somehow manage to catch up 4 months' worth of storywriting...but the short of it is that it's part of the conclusion to a long-running event.

...though it makes more sense had I been referencing Donne. Oh well!

Well I haven't read 'Five Bells', so we could both be right, Donne fits in nicely too.

''And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; It tolls for thee.''

but the short of it is that it's part of the conclusion to a long-running event.

*sigh* Someone delete the above two posts...

I found this YuGiOh Card while looking through my collection. I was like ZOMFG! Its Strop!

Lol, no way man, I'm keeping your posting fail right where it is for posterity!

Meany Strop. Now if only one of the other moderators could delete that for me...*flags*

Hehehehe!!!!

Darn it, flagging worked. Oh well, now I can just sit and stare at Strop's sexy legs...

Hahahaha Yaaayyyy! It would be so awesome to make forty cards of AG related things that could be used as an actual deck!

Hmmmm....
