I am Actually Sane Right Now!

My goodness! If you saw any of my latest posts, sorry!
I wrote all of them at like 4 AM after waking up at like noon. O.0 so..

Erm.

A RANT ABOUT DEATHLY. AKA Deathbringer. Spoilers for all SEVEN BOOKS. Yes I HAVE Winter Turning, and have since the day it came out, and I'm only HALFWAY THROUGH! I KNOW right? Why am I not finished? But anyhoo, on with le becquet!!!

So. Deathbringer is awful. That much goes unsaid (or it should >:-( ). But here's some evidence in case you don't agree with me:

"'He's on our side!' Kinkajou cried. 'Or he was before you randomly attacked him for no reason. Now he'll never like us again!'
...
'I don't know, he sounds kind of murder-y, Kinkajou,' said the voice. 'And we heard there's an extra-dangerous IceWing on the loose right now. So I'm going to keep sitting on him until I get further instructions.'
'I'm instructing you!' Kinkajou yelped. "He's not the dangerous one! That's his sister!'
'It's true,' Qibli chimed in. 'This one is honorable. He's no sneak-in-the-night assassin.'
'Hey, ouch,' said the dragon on top of Winter. 'Nothing wrong with assassins. Who said there was anything dishonorable about assassins? They're just not allowed to kill my -- my queen. It's my job to stop them and drop some violence on their heads, but I'm not judging them, sheesh.'
...
"'DEATHBRINGER!' another new voice thundered, loud enough to rattle the leaves overhead. 'What are you doing?"
'Saving you, protecting the forest, defending our new home, sitting on a very cold IceWing,' said the NightWing from his perch on Winter's back. 'You know, the usual.' [UGH]
...
"'Stop arresting my guests,' said the newcomer, pausing...

I apologize liberally. This was written thus far 

on or before 7/5/15 and it's been more than two  

months. But I'll finish now. :-)

Oh, and I have finished the book by now, in case

you were worried. :-P

"... pausing beside Winter. 'It's not romantic or heroic, it's annoying. I've told you this before'
"'I know,' Deathbringer said, sounding aggrieved. 'But look, it's an IceWing. Sunny specifically said an IceWing tried to kill all the prophecy dragonets. This is definitely a pinion-before-asking-questions kind of situation.'
"'All right, OFF,' Glory said firmly. the weight on top of Winter suddenly lifted as if she'd hauled Deathbringer off with her own talons. 'I am going to replace you as my bodyguard [please do] if you seriously can't tell the difference between a male IceWing traveling [writing with a book open on your hands is hard, I wrote traveljijng] with my friends Kinkajou and Moonwatcher, and a lone female IceWing out to kill me. Pay a little more attention to detail, Deathbringer. Also, by the way [b7y the waiy888], you're one to talk about killing prophecy dragonets.'
...
"[Winter] hesitated. Ever bone in his body wanted to fly into a rage and rip Deathbringer's wings off. [yes yes YES do it Winter!]
...
"'Will he be punished?' Winter demanded.
"'Oh, yes,' Glory said, frowning at Deathbringer. 'Creatively and firmly,'" (pg 48-51).

"That would be irritating,' Glory said. 'If Deathbringer turns out to be right, I mean. It makes him really insufferable,'" (pg 53).

A note on Winglets books:

     Though I despise Deathy, I expect Assassin to be intriguing. But... 4 1/2 NightWing POVs? Do they really need that much (OH MY GOODNESS WHAT IS THAT WORD???? For a group of antagonists, but they aren't actually that bad, so we prove this again and again and again with the non-corrupted members [AKA exactly what is going on with the NightWings])?? We get it: there are lots of NightWings, many of which are enemies, some of which are friends, almost all of which are very interesting characters that we really want to know more about... so perhaps write a compilation of short backstories for BattleWinner, Mastermind, Darkstalker, Morrowseer, Foeslayer, Obsidian, Vengeance, Stonemover, Mightyclaws, Bigtail, Wisdom, Mindreader, Greatness, and whoever else needs fleshing out. Save the longer books for ASHA, SORA, Umber, Queen Moorhen, Vermilion, Ruby, Flame, Osprey, Snowfall, LYNX, DUNE, Addax, Smolder, Kelp, Moray, Orca, Albatross, Shark, Pike, Camel, Heliconia, Orchid, Splendor, GRANDEUR, etc. Caps are the ones I want most. :-)

The last time I edited this one was 9/13??????? Here you go.
