Nightmare Chapter 9 AKA The One With All The Music


May the odds be ever in you favor.

So, yes I was able to clean up another chapter of NAF. I really want to post this one because it ties together the events of the last chapter and leave us off on a good note.

Unrealted

I came across these pictures of Bethany Joy (Galeotti) Lenz and I instantly thought she looked what I imagine a 30 year old version of Sofia would look like. This was just a random thought. There is obviously nothing in the works. Though if something popped out The Vault about S&A I don't think it be very happy.

Yes I have a super secret Dropbox type thing labeled The Vault.





AAF GAP

So this is going so much better than I thought. I actually have all the remaining  chapters numbered and outlined. The music is working pretty well but I have so many. . . leftover songs. I have no idea how I did SA 1-2 chapters at a time

Bellum 
I have no idea how a marginalized random idea like Lux Aeterna became the giant THING that is Bellum. Bellum right now is set up with 3 parts (parts one and two will be done-ish when I start posting). It also features three different storylines. They are all told in order and occur at the same time. . . or do they ? There are also so many characters now I have no idea what I'm doing.

Playlist

+1+ Go - Delilah
+2+ Holland Road - Mumford & Sons 
+3+ When The Right One Comes Along

  1. Yay ! I didn’t think I’d get my NAF fix for a while, and it just got better. The dun dun dun killed me.

    I demand to know where you find these supercute images, Lile.

    *steals the entire playlist*

    1. I've had these images for YEARS. I have no idea where I found them. I know it was on Tumblr.

  2. And of course by good note, Lile means a cliff hanger

  3. Lol, I forgot how much you and JB loved The Hill.

  4. So, are all these characters in Bellum new characters or are we having a point of view switch to characters we met before.

    1. There are new character as for the second part it's hard to answer.

  5. Faeire- tale shenans aside...I kinda want to stay at Cascade Falls. Just drift.

  6. Plot twist!So, is April metaphorically the evil queen or is she really the evil sister from the story ?

    1. There isn't really and evil sister in the story. April's Story is sort of the prequel to how she is going to BECOME the evil queen. Hmm, i just realized I should have added in a key part that it's the next chapter.

  7. So, why is Penelope a P and not a T ? Does she have a character picspiration ?

    1. Maybe it's because she is the changeling...

      Delete
    2. Yes Heidi ! She is the changeling from the story. (Well actually April is a changeling but yes, Penelope is the baby who April replaced. So she is human and that is why she has a name that doesn't start with a T".

  8. Every time I hear Bellum I get all jumpy and excited. Do you think we will get some excerpts or nibbles of the story in the next few months ? Y/Y ?

    1. Or maybe like a preview of a chapter or eight ?

      Delete
    2. Um, well. . . no. I'd have to find a part that does this and there really isn't.

  9. I wonder if April wants Cillian to kill Thesia and Penelope for her.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Are we going to learn how exactly you turn a human into a Fae. And if that’s possible, can human men be turned into fae ?

    ReplyDelete
  11. I’m honestly waiting for Cillian to say magical bitches be crazy

    ReplyDelete
  12. One of my favorite things about this is how hard April subverts the usual fairy/magical girl tropes. She’s not plucky and here to save your life, she’s here to save her own.

    ReplyDelete
  13. So, I’ve been re-reading parts of this and I find it hilarious how much of Cillian’s job is towel folding.

    ReplyDelete
  14. I’m a little confused as to how exactly April is summoning the Unseelie queen. I mean isn’t all she doing is staring at books.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. April isn't summoning her. April hasn't actually done anything except read the books. So we don't know why Penelope has showed up. The question is what WILL April do to summon her.

  15. Ish got real with Jerry and Cillian...and the strange part is I’m not sure which one to side with.I mean Jerry could have done better by Cillian in the past.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Yeah, but I still don’t think Cillian should have said “we’re not family”

      Delete
    2. I go both ways on this. I find myself siding a little more with Cillian because his Grandfather wasn't there when Cillian was going down a bad path. He could at least have visited and be the "man" in his life. Although I guess Cillian has his other grandfather but still.

  16. OMG, guys Jerry knows SOMETHING.

    1. Or maybe Cirian does

      Delete
    2. Jerry and Cirian know nothing. This isn't LL

      I told you none of the usual LiLe shenans. Although if this WAS you can bet that Ty would be like Cillian's really grandmother or something crazy like that. Or Cirian would still be alive but he would be like a tree or something.

  17. “I wish, Cillian”, he says, “I wish everything I knew about your father fit on a baseball card.
    That hit me in the gut.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Okay, guys now I’m afraid Jerry is going to die.

    1. People don’t typically die in Lile serials...right ? right ?

      Delete
    2. I'll tell you now, he is not going to die.

  19. Do faieries age like normal people ? If so, wouldn’t April be closer to age to Ty since they are the same generation of cousins.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Fae do age normally, they are the same generation but we can assume Thesia was much older when she had April. I think April and Ty are maybe twenty years apart.

  20. After that whole Isaiah bate and switch I’m starting to think the Coleman’s might be in on something…

    1. No. . . they are just a homage to the street I used to live in in Oaklande. Also McGill was my mother's maiden name but I think we already discussed that.

  21. So, since this takes place in the southwest and not like Memphis or Nashville how did you end up using so much country music ? Did it just come to you or where you going for a certain feel.

    1. Piggybacking on the question; will there be T. Swift ?

      Delete
    2. Um, well I just . . . I don't know. I mean country music seems to fit into the small-town, slow living mentality. I know using Honky Tonk was a big part of the very start of this serial but if I think WAY back I can't remember when I decided to pick country music.

    1. Me too ! Since there isn't going to be any new stuff I think I need CPShawna to break into Lile's dropbox and steal ALL the things.

      Delete
    2. The Vault can be a scary and confusing place. I may lay out a few options and let you decide what you want to break out. . . maybe. I think CPS needs to open a vault of her own #Enmoritas.

  23. “I’ve never seen you lift a finger.”
    She then raises her middle finger at me.
    “There”, she said,....

    I just figured out how I’m quitting my next crappy job.

  24. I am in love with this chapter, but I was so looking forward to some TDOLL ):

    ReplyDelete
  25. Oh, also can we ship Cillian and some McDonald’s French Fries

    ReplyDelete

    1. You spelled Five Guys wrong

      Delete
    2. Um, Shake Shack

      Delete
    3. This is actually a funny chapter because this was apart of the original dabbles I had written and the running joke would be that Cillian never got the fries.

      But he obviously does eat them when he first meets April at Ty's and when they go to Reno. I didn't want to put the Reno one in there but I was like; he has a car he is in the city it doesn't make sense for him not to stop by a drive thru.

      Um, so yeah.

      I love TGI Friday's Fries. My ex and I used to go there all the time !
