My Brain went onto Overload

I'm addicted to two things: Kelley Armstrong's Stolen and my own story, The Paths of Destiny. It's a sad thing, actually. I started Stolen yesterday at around 10:30 AM, read until 4:30 PM and took a fast break to know how far I was. I was about 25% through the book, which is good seeing as I take FOREVER to read books. So, by 8:30 PM, I was reading, again, seeing as I was bored out of my freaking mind.

I also had a brilliant idea. This author was inducing me with leathal amounts of her writing, that was now starting to spark my head itself. Observe (btw, this is Elena Michael's point of veiw XD):

Four walls. Three taupe. The fourth mirrored. One-way glass. Lovely. By my feet, a bathroom. I could tell it was a bathroom because I could see the toilet, not through the door, but through the front wall, which was clear glass. (K. Armstrong; p 121)

Later in the book it says Elena is tied to a chair with arm restraints and leg irons- of course with me knowing all the stuff I did, I forget easily. Which was my next task: Re-figure out what Leg irons were.

So there I was, on Wikipedia, lil' Chelsea-weaslea doing research on something she already knew about. But I wanted to be SURE so that when, and probably later, I reread the book for more inspiration, I don't have to do it again. While on the page, I scrolled all the way down to the bottom and guess what I see. I see something about "Physical Restraints". Even though most of them are for BDMS stuff (like I'm ever going to do that) I'm still using them for my story. Well... some. Not all. Only a few. xD.

While I was taking my research-ing break, I decided, "Hey, Smart ass! Seeing as Armstrong is giving you ideas, take it! Look up torture! And Medical equipment!" so I did. xD.

Hey, at least I'm doing research rather than asking people what they thinkg, Right? XD

Anyways, moving on. So, after that I read some more, and then was online for like... 30 minutes, and then layed in bed and pondered, "Cory and Angela... Alice... Cooper and Robert...." and guess what.. I had also found a long list of "potential" bad stuff: Homicidal names and everything related to that. One of them I took in a keen interest, too. Consensual Homicide. Consensual Homicide is where someone admits he/she wants to die, and therefore someone kills them. So... I found out something about myself: Willow Sorsha likes to do Consensual Homicide. *Sentence spoiler!!!* I say this because Robert, who is screaming at his dead brother's ghost, admits he wants to die.

I think Willow Sorsha is getting eviler every time I write about him :\.

Anyways, yes. The Paths of Destiny is getting very.... long. On paper, it's about 55 pages, and 21 chapters, changing between One of the six kids, or Willow Sorsha himself. There's a lot of flaws in what is what, but even so, it's still a good book. In fact, I might even put it on MIBBA xD XD.

End of Story. :)
