Answers to questions while I was out of town


I flew to Florida to see KeleMoon. She’s my critique partner and best friend. We’ve known each other for two years but had never had the chance to meet in person. It was fantastic, we talked books, plots, and it recharged our author batteries. I had a blast with her and her wonderful family. I can't thank them enough.

 

You guys are awesome. I came back to a list of questions in the comment section and in emails so...here goes. LOL! I can’t answer every single one of them without giving away some of the plots. You don’t want me to ruin the books for you. I can tell you a few things that aren’t spoilers about New Species. If you’ve followed my blog or me on facebook then you already know that I had written a lot of the books from that series before I was published. I had nine finished books and a ton of partial stories done when I stopped writing them in 2004 when I had a pretty rough pregnancy and took a few years off writing due to health issues. Pretty much - almost every Species mentioned in the books have at least a few chapters to mostly done books in those partials. (The quick version for those of you who didn’t know that). I have answers because of those partials.

 

Leo has a book and she’s human. He is kind of similar to Valiant because he’s a Wild Zone resident. A lot of the Wild Zone residents are feline. Brass has a huge partial. I was about 90 percent done with his book when I had stopped writing the series. She’s human and in need of being rescued.

 

Flame and Amanda have a partial. Jericho has a partial. She’s human. Kit even has a few chapters written. Yes, I know she isn’t everyone’s favorite but trust me when I say she’s kind of...bitchy...for a reason.  I know that won’t be good news for some people who hate her but if you’ve read the Cyborg series...Zorus was the most loathed cyborg...ever! LOL. His book is a favorite of some people who used to write me asking me to kill him in various horrible, painful ways. I can’t stress enough how much he was HATED. I hope when Kit’s book comes out...you give it a chance.

 

Darkness has a book. She’s human too. Breeze is going to hook up with a human - yes - the one she mentioned being attracted to. It’s NOT Tim O’berto. LOL! Ven’s (Vengeance) story is in the near future and...she’s human.  Smiley gets a book. Jaded. Harley. The list is LONG on who gets books. And yes, you will see a book for 927 (from Valiant’s book). There are also some books with Species you haven’t met yet...who are still being kept in captivity.

 

Moon - I’m finishing his book soon and he’s up next in the series. Who is his mystery lady? She’s human and someone from his past who he met right after being freed from Mercile. No, she didn’t work there. That’s all I can give you for right now.

 

I am working on more books from other series. Zorn...I’m hoping to get the last three books in that series out next year at some point. Coto, Vinlotti, and Vhon get stories. I need to close out a few series and Zorn will be the first. I’ll finish writing the rest of the Raine brothers - including Trip and Adam. Mating Heat...I plan to finish Cousin Brand’s story, the rest of the Harris brothers who don’t have books yet, and I want to write a book for Alpha Elroy. That man needs a good mate. I’m leaving Cyborg Seduction open. I have no set amount of books planned for it. New Species...they are going to be around for quite some time.

 

Why end any of my series? I’m currently juggling five of them and to be honest - there aren’t enough hours in the day to keep up with them. I'm workahlic if that tells you anything. LOL. I LOVE my job!!!  That’s why some of them are suffering by not having stories out in a more timely fashion. I’m more than aware of their neglect and I apologize. My goal? Write the books I had planned for Zorn, Raines, and Mating Heat and close them out. That means that Species and Cyborgs will get more of my attention.

 

I have most of Cousin Brand’s book done - the holdup is that I’m also writing a few of the Harris brother books that are linked. I’m almost to the point where all the connections are done. To be blunt...it’s easier to wait until I have those parts written for the other books because once it’s released...the facts are set in stone. It’s just more convenient for me to be able to adjust them at the same time so they fit smoothly together. The same goes with a few of the Riding the Raines books. I’m also close to finishing Blackie and Sky’s stories from Cyborg Seduction.

 

And last but not least...will there ever be a female New Species baby? I debated on answering this. LOL. Yes. There is hope! That's all I'm saying on that matter for now.

 

Have a fantastic week and thank you so much.
 
Laurann

  1. You rock and I cannot say how much I appreciate your writing I love the New Species I know I keep saying this but I wish we had action figures well maybe not a good idea cause then I would have to have the set and I am already a nerd that will really help my reputation toting around action figures but if we can only have a few I would like Valiant and Vengeance. Lol that is my fantasy I know it may not be possible but a girl can dream thanks for helping us all live in your dreams I cannot tell you how much I anticipate each new book oh yes I have read your other series as well. Thanks for all that you do and we love you.

    1. Action Figures!!! I totally would obsess over those! I would love to have Fury, Valiant and Obsidian. Heck...I'd want them all! LOL!

  2. All I can say is WOW! I am so excited to have any books come out. I am thrilled to hear that we will have more of the Raine brothers, Zorn and Mating Heat books and even more thrilled that when you have them wrapped up you will be able to devote you energy to the NS and Cyborg series!
    Hope hope we never make you feel pressured to get things done faster than you do because you kick major butt, I have other authors that I read that if we get one a year then that's something. I adore your writing and demand you take a break when ever you need :D

  3. Thanks for the update. I'm already trying to guess who will wind up with whom..lol Yay, a female new species baby, I sure hope it's Creek's :) I'm hoping Breeze's man is Trey. I have been hooked on your books since I read the 1st one and I know I will be hooked on them for years to come. Thanks for being the writer that you are :)

I keep checking your facebook post and your website for release dates! I have to say - You have become one of my favorite! I truly enjoy reading your books! Thank you for such great series!! You really are great at what you do!!

  7. I am excited for Kit's book. I have never disliked her. I just knew she has had a bad past, as all of them do. Hell, My least favorite at the moment is vengeance. LOL. I am so excited and I can't wait to read the rest of the books. I am glad you are keeping the cyborgs open too. I love them also.

    LOL, you know you are my hero, right? I think I have told you this like five times in the past week...I just don't want you to forget!

  8. Yey! yey! Yey! Exited for all of the upcoming books. I have read The Species, Zorn Warriors, Cyborg Seduction and Mating Heat series and I'm psyched for the new books.

    I also think Breeze's man will be Trey. I just think they would be a awesome couple as well as they kind of have the same scene of humor.

    I DON'T hate Kik. Never have, never will. I also don't hate Vengeance. They obviously have their reasons for being the way they are. People need to remember than.

    YES! I want a new species baby girl!

  11. Laurann,

    Thank for the updates on all the series. You are going to be one tired and drained puppy but in a good way. :-)

    I would also like to share with you my thoughts on something I have observe in how you deliver your approach to writing the various series. I call it thoughtful disclosures. You give us insight into the how and why you chose the path you did but you also share a "what's in it for you" tidbit too. It creates a shared purpose which people love because they feel they are contributing to your success other than just buying the book.

    Great job Laurann! I am really a fan for life. Take care.

  12. Thanks Laurann for taking the time to answer our questions. Good to know that lots more New Species and Cyborgs are on the horizon, as well as more Raines, Zorn & Mating Heat. Of course I want to read them all now, but I have to accept that some things just aren't possible! *sniff* :)

    Anyway, have a great weekend & take care!

  13. Hey laurann :) love the books! Im just curious but is torrent from shadows book 927 from valients book?

    ReplyDelete
  14. Yayyyyyyyyyy, Leo is getting a book! I can't wait for Moon, Jericho, Ven, 927, Smiley, Brass, Flame/ Amanda... and honestly I'm kind of interested in what happened to Kit. Part of me had already wondered if she had developed feelings for someone when she was still caged and lost him like so many of the male's have.

    I still mourn the loss of the Zorn series. I just reread Tempting Rever today. NS, Cyborg and Zorn are my favorite of your series. I'm not sure why, I just never connected with the Raine or Mating Heat books. Maybe not enough Alpha male for me? Not sure. I really like fantasy books like Kresely Cole, but I also love the tenderness of the Catherine Anderson books... you always come through with both... always providing smokin' Alpha male character's for us all! Thank you and I can't wait for your next book!

  16. Cindy, I rather have the real male any of them. LOL
    Laurann thank you so much for update on NS I'm waiting and ready for Moon's book. I don't recall reading anything about the female he met when first release.

    Darkness and Jericho would be an interested reading I think.

    Anyway keep up the good work

    ReplyDelete
  17. I've started re-reading your NS series, taking my time, reading them slowly in hopes that by the time I get to Shadow, Moon's book will be out...wishful thinking! :)

    I did come across a flashback in Slade's book that made me wonder...in his flashback, he talked about how they were guarded by female officers upon release from Mercile, waiting in the motels until Homeland was ready. I wonder if there's some sort of correlation between that and the "woman from Moon's past".

    Just like Vengeance, you'll make us fall in love with Kit and her story. I know there has to be more to her than what we're seeing...for someone so...bitchy, she eventually showed kindness to Beauty in the end.

    Anyways, keep up the great writing and I can't wait for the next book!

  20. Laurann,

    Do you have story partials for Wild Zone residents beside Leo and Ven? I wouldn't mind if they were even more savage than Valiant or Leo.

    I love animal side in NS males and that's why I loved Obsidian so much. For some readers and Alison he was simply rude. For me he was deliciously raw and animal with his instinctive need to claim and protect his female. Even in spite of her wishes. I even found his ordering her around smoking sexy. I loved how extreme dominant he was.

    Some of NS males, like Moon or Brass gone soft.

    Hugs,
    Annie

    1. Lol some would say that about Justice with his civilized suits and nicely worded speeches until we read his book and he was all beat his chest "you're mine whether your with me or not" with Jessie. Then there's Tiger who spent a lot of time around humans acting kind of human until Zandy came along and he wanted to bite the head off of any guy who came near her...idk how smiley survived that book. Moon and Brass may be sweet and gentle on the day to day but i'm willing to bet they'll be just as crazy possessive when their time comes.

      BUUUUT, i totally get your love for Val and his caveman ways.

    Will Trey have a book?

  22. I'd love if you write about Jericho. I love him and his red eyes (please, don't tell him I said "red"). What do you think, Laurann? Of course, I'll still read everything you write.
    PS: I love that Ven has a book! OMG! I hardly can deal with this! I'm so excited! And 927! I can't say how much I love you right now.
    PS2: I love Mating Heat. And I will really love if you write a story about Brand and another about Von and Debbie. I don't know why, but I love them, and I think they are going to be a couple. Please, tell me I'm right!
    PS3: Sorry about my bad English, it isn't my native language (but I hope you can understand me the same way). By the way, I do love your books.

  35. Hurray for more books. I love your New Species series, Mate Set, Zorn, and Cyborg series'. Your Rain series just does not appeal to me at the moment but that might change later who knows.

    1. I liked 1st book in Raine Series but deeply detested 2nd instalment.

      Just like I loved 1st & 2nd book in Zorn Series but I was disgusted by 3rd & 4th. It was like everything what happened in 3rd & 4th book was complete contradiction to what was stated in 1st & 2nd. This whole "till death do us part"/ unbreakable / permanent thing status of Zorn wife we were so assured of in book 1 & 2 was just casually dismissed by simple "You're not my wife any more" in 3rd & 4th instalments. Not to mention this gross granny househelp & hero & heroine oral scene(ewww!!)or smoooshing somebody else's husband!

      What happened with your love for monogamy Mrs. Dohner? Threesome is bad but sleeping with married man is okay?

      I don't get it.

  36. I Love New Species series, and I am glad to see Smiley, Brass, Jericho and even Darkness are getting books. I really can't wait to read Smiley's book he seems to get past over and I'm hoping she's Human; maybe a women of color.

    Just keep writing, Looking forward to reading Moon's book

  37. Looking forward to reading whatever you have planned next,please please let the evil doctors/scientists in the new species series get what they should get for being so evil!I loved your answer about the new species questions.Will the female new species baby be soon?Anticipation is an awful thing!

  38. I had a question about the more recent NS books: Since Tiger's heroic rescue of Zandy, there hasn't been much (if any) mention of protesters at the Homeland gates. Are they still there, or did they finally feel ashamed of themselves and go home?

  39. Laurann!!! I am a huge fan of your books! So far I have been following until Shadow. My top favourite is Valiant. Can't wait to read Leo. These kids are totally my type. If you ever happen to read my comment, please consider writing human heroin in different angle that is not (~30 years old/blond hair/red hair). I love it if the series expand more. Probably Asian women or innocent one will do the trigger for something fresh! I love your style of writing. Oh women ~~~

    1. Laurann stated before that she doesn't write virgin heroines. Besides she already has plots and partials for all her heroes and heroines so our "wish comments" are irrelevant.

  45. Thank you Laurann for writing the best series ever (and I read a lot). I love New Species. They are possessive, protective and passionate! Yum! :) They are truly honorable. I think that’s what sets this series apart from all the rest. No other can claim it that I’m aware of. You can trust that NS will always be honorable and loyal to each other. I was afraid in Justice that there would be NS civil war. I’m glad it didn’t go that way. I too believe they have plenty of external enemies to last a life time and hope that you will be able to maintain the honorable foundation of the NS series. This series hit me right in the heart. :) I’m not a fan of the sci-fi/captive sex-slave genre (Cyborg), but I see that you have tons of loyal fans who are. You’re wonderful. I look forward to Moon and every future NS book you write. Thank you for writing for us. :) Warm regards, Lisa Jones, Winterville, NC

    1. I doubt it.
      If she send finished Moon to publisher she would updated blog. She always does that after sending in finished book. And after she did we have to wait AT LEAST 6 weeks for publisher to release it.
      So NO news from Laurann means that she's still writing Moon's book.
      I'm betting end of January/ beginning of February.

  49. I only recently discovered the NS series and I have to say I am very happy I have. I devoured all 9 in the last 2 weeks and am just chomping at the bit for the next. After this post, I'm even more excited for more... all the characters (plus one I can do without... eww, Kitt? Who knows? Might end up my favorite.) I hoped to see more of will be seen in future books. I really had hope for poor Vengeance. I mean, really...a guy who shaves his head because he desperately misses his mate running her fingers through his hair? How can ya not wish he finds happiness in his own story? Thank you, Laurann, for all your hard work!

  50. Dear Laurann,
    I picked up Fury's story about a month ago and have since fallen madly in love with your New Species series. Immediately after that 1st book, I have gone on to buy and read ALL of your other books: Zorn warriors, Cyborg, Raine, as well as Mating Heat. All in less than a month.
    My ultimate favourite is still the New Species series, followed by Cyborg and Mating Heat.
    So I am very, very happy to hear that there will be many more NS books to come! Thank you, THANK YOU!
    And what's more, I am especially happy to hear that one character that was briefly mentioned in Tiger's and Wrath's stories - VENGEANCE - will have a story all on his own soon. His heartfelt words after fighting with Tiger really broke my heart. He really left a very deep impression on me. So thank you again for making one of my wishes come true soon. Hehe.
    Meanwhile, I must say many of your characters in NS is very endearing. Moon's another character I hope to read about soon, as well as Breeze, Bestial, Jericho, Flame, and many many more. Please don't stop writing.
    Okies, that's enough of my rambling. Please forgive my seeming over-eagerness. Seriously, I didn't think I would get so addicted to a series/author that I would actually hunt down her blog/website and leave a comment, hoping she would read it. I must admit I was thinking of writing you an email before this to ask, nay, beg, for a story on Vengeance, and on all the other memorable characters as well. Heh.
    Please accept my sincere belated Merry Christmas wishes and here's also wishing that you and your loved ones have a beautiful 2013 ahead, one that's equally if not more successful than 2012.
    Best regards,
    A new Laurann Dohner fan from Asia,

  51. Hello Laurann - hope you're doing fine!

    I'm a real fan of yours from Brazil (São Paulo) and totally addicted to your books! =)
    For me is a real pleasure read your books and it definitly worth all the effort to do it in a different language!

    Well, as a fan I have 2 request...actually 3 requests, may I?
    Here I go...

    1) Please, do finish Jericho's book asap!! =))
    I can hardly wait to read about this big male and his red eyes! Bet it will be quite different.

    2) Also, if you have the chance, since species like so much to dance and music, give us some tip of what they are listening so I can also hear it too.

    3) Please, never stop writing!

    As a real brazilian person I could not say bye in a different way, so:

    Kisses and Hugs - all the best!!!
    GZC.

  52. Hello,

    I have been reading your 'New Species' books since I had stumbled across them on Amazon. I am quite enjoying your series, as you seem to have put a lot of though and feeling behind every character you create.


    I am writing to you because I had a funny thought after reading your latest release 'True'. I had found I am waiting for you to release your book featuring 'Jericho' (I seem to be more interested in him more then the other guys, I have a thing for big 'scary' men...) Being an Australian it got me thinking of how a New Species male would handle a little Australian woman calling him or any other the other Species (for that matter) 'mate'.


    We may not use it all the time (despite what all the movies suggest), but when we see someone we have met before it is 'Hello mate, how are you?'

    Or when we are angry (with a male mostly trying to tell us what to do when we know our way is the better way), we get up close and poke the guys chest saying something like; 'Listen mate, if you don't back off and listen...' or 'look here mate...' I can just picture all the amusing reactions a Species would have with or without being attracted to the female.


    I just thought I would share a little Australian humor with you, thank you for reading.

  53. I love your books.. Thank you for not stopping your series anytime soon.. If it's not broke don't fix it..And now that Ebooks have arrived I sincerely hope they give writers more control of their creative offerings. I've read numerous comments from writers when asked why they stopped a series here... there.. etc it always came down to the publishers not thinking it was pulling in the numbers"they" wanted.. What a shame...

  54. I LOVE your books!!!!! I cant tell you how happy i am to hear that cyborg seduction and new species books will continue... (they're my favourite)...it's a pity that Darkness doesn't end up with a gift though, i kinda thought he'd end up with the one that was eluded to in True's book. But i'm sure it will be amazing

  67. Thank you for taking such time and care while writting the New Species series. Your characters are wonderful and I greatly enjoy them. I have read all of the books out so far and am excited to read Vengeance story as well as Breeze. I hope you will have a book for Kit too. You are an amazing writer and it takes alot of courage to put your work out there. So thank you for that. ☺

  73. So glad there's going to be a book on Vengeance in the future. I can't wait to find out what's happened to him after he was sent to the Wild Zone.

    ReplyDelete
  74. I just finished reading through the complete New Species series (again lol) and would love to see more. I know that 14 books in a series is loads already, but some favourite characters definitely deserve a happy end. I'm glad to read that there are/were further books in the making, but will they ever be published. I'd like to read about Jericho, Harley, Ven and Flame the most, definitely Breeze and even seemingly coldhearted Kit, but since this blog was written in 2012 I'm not having much hope.
    I've read and enjoyed almost all of Laurann's books and am always looking for new ones. I'd do a happy dance to see a brand new New Species book.
    Keep up the good work, Laurann. you're one of my favourite authors xx

    ReplyDelete
  75. The series will be incomplete without a story about Vengence! He really moved me in Tiger's story! I know his story is in the pipelines... when can we expect the book to be published? Can wait! Awesome job Laurann! :D

  81. Does anyone know if a virgin heroine will be written about in any of her books?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. None are virgins in her books and most are over 30 years old as well. I have read four series by her and they are all over 30 and not virgins. I would like to see that too and a younger women like 22 in her books but it might not happen.

  82. I absolutly loved the new species books and have come up with a list of the top 4 males I really wish to read about
    1. Vengance
    2. Jericho
    3. Flame
    and
    4. Flirt

  83. Does she even write any new species anymore?

  84. I feel abandoned as a reader.

    ReplyDelete
  85. I also feel that the New Species Series is being abandoned, and I really loved the series and there has not been any new ones in years.

    ReplyDelete
  86. Like my fellow readers above, I also hope to read more new species soon. I feel we were left with a few stories incomplete and I really want to read them. I recently found this series and I love this universe more then most. I also want to read about all the strong women and hope they also find happiness. Please don’t make me/us wait too much longer if you still are planning on continuing with the series! Thank you for your books! xx

    ReplyDelete
  87. Are you possibly going to consider a movie, or a tv show, i think for new species it would be really awesome.

    ReplyDelete
  88. I want flame's story!!! And Vengeance's story please!!!! Please.
    BTW... I'm reading the whole series start to finish for the 3rd time. I'm in love with them all! Even the females 😉

    ReplyDelete
  89. Can you please give some idea when the next NS will be released. I check on the net most weeks hoping for a new species book which I hope will be vengeance. I love them all so any new releases will be great.

    ReplyDelete
  90. I look forward to every book that you publish - thank you for the enjoyable reads! I not only have purchased the books in itunes but I've also purchased the Audio versions - it's a different take on a well loved story. Will you be writing any more New Species stories (I understand that changing publishers can have an adverse effect on this but I'm hoping that you either haven't changed publishers or it's not a problem!). I would love to hear about Breeze and Trey (assumption!) and Flame and Amanda. those are the two that I feel are lingering in my mind for a final story. Thank you again for the wonderful and truly entertaining story writing.

    ReplyDelete
  91. Love all of your books and really hope to see one on Jericho. My only wish is that the heroines would not be so interchangeable. Everyone of them is short... Tall girls need some love too!

    ReplyDelete
  92. Like many of your other readers I would also love to see New species continue so many of our favorite
    Characters have not had their stories told please continue.

    ReplyDelete
  93. I love your books and own almost every one.
    Would you consider another Cyborg Seduction book about Mavo?

    ReplyDelete
  94. I love NS but I think the time between each book is a far to long.
    I know NS isn't everyones favourite and why bring more characters in when a lot of readers would like to know whats happening with the existing ones.

    ReplyDelete
  95. I miss the New Species. I am on book 9 of a re-read, and I would LOVE to read Flame and Amanda, and Ven's book, and Jaded, and BESTIAL! And sweet Brass, and Breeze. I want to read their happy endings! Please? Oh and I also LOVE the Zorn series, it is probably one of my favorites, and I am so hoping that there will be more, I really want to read about their cousin/brother. Its next on my re-read list after NS, so I can't remember his name yet. Anyway, Love the books and I can't wait to get more of them...please????

  96. Good morning, afternoon or evening this is my first time ever reaching out to one of the author I admire and read and reread often. I am a wannabe writer (lol) I have enjoyed Reading your series. When Reading New species an idea for two plots hit me like a freight train. I am sure you most likely have already had them but if not here goes. My first has to do with their true creator and maybe one of her granddaughters or just one knows all about new species and why the females can't get pregnant. The actual creator caused it once she figured out what the drug company had in mind for them. She even could still be alive and in hiding. My second idea was concerning the animals new species are taking in. At sometime they are going to need a vet, so why not a mobile female vet or even a couple of vets and techs. Ok that's it those are my freight train ideas thank you for your time.

  97. I read the last NS book that came out and I thought it was really good. I notes that there was new characters added and I would love to read Oaks story lol I wish that there was primates in the NS story. I can't wait for the next book to come out.

    ReplyDelete
  98. I'm waiting on Jericho's book and vens

    ReplyDelete
  99. I'm curious to know if there have been edits or rewrites to the NS Series? I've read them before, and rereading them again after Best Friends I don't even recognize most of the stories. Have I lost my mind? Btw, love this series and I'm glad Brass and Harley are getting some page time. They are two of my fave characters.

    ReplyDelete
  100. Will there be a new species book on lapis, oak, kit, breeze? I'm obsessed, I dont care what I'm reading , these are stories I go back to over & over again..I am & get emotional over these guys..I wish they were real & not fictional! New species books is one I could never tire of.. I cant wait to hear ,read about the new species females having relationships with human males...I want to hear more about the new species babies aswell! Darkness story I got to read about forest & salvation that was my highlight, want to hear more about noble & all of them as they grow..i cant get enough, so I'm hoping more new species books are coming out!!

    1. Why add other characters when there's lots of them not written about in the previous books. I would like to know what happens to Vengeance. Plus there's to much time between the stories. If the series is going to end please
      inform us. It's only fair to let us readers know if NS has come to an end.

  101. Love the New Species series and I was wondering if you were going to release Brass' story as you've mentioned that's it is 90% written? I would to hear his story especially as he was one of the first New Species Males we met

    ReplyDelete
  102. Laura, i would love to read Jaded history, please tell me is ready

    ReplyDelete
  103. I don't think Laurann is listening to us. The truly last book that came out was in Dec 2019. I just spend the last three full day[ don't work on weekdays] rereading most of the books again. I still love this series but i feel that most of the females are not original anyone. Their almost stay at home moms to to be mom's.

    Most were in the medical field as well. Tammy, Becca, Lauran, Zandy, Vanni, Candi, Mel and Mary were not in the medical field.

    The others were in medical field as doctors, nurses or therapists.

    I hope we get the ones that Laurann said in the blog.

    Leo/ Human Female
    Brass/ Human Female [90% done] As if....
    Flame/ Amanda
    Jericho/ Human Female
    Ven/ Human Female
    Breeze/ Human Male
    Kit/ ?????

    I hope these come out soon.

    Ones i hope for

    Jaded
    Harley
    Torrent
    Timber
    Jinx
    Flirt
    Slash
    Destiny
    Dreamer
    Wind
    Ascension
    Oak
    Lapis

  104. Hi, what I would like to know is what happened to Trey during Darkness' story? It never mentioned what he did wrong? It just hints that he did something that Tim wasn't happy about?
