PigtailPrincess Posted July 1 Author Report Posted July 1 @Pink_MyMelody @Fox H @RoseyLittle @innerchildtml @SarBear55 Alright all thank you for being patient! Here are your questions for chapters 1-3. Please post in the link below and remember to spoil them to avoid ruining for others. I explain how to in the topic. Per usual these are 100% optional but can be alot of fun. Questions: Spoiler 1. So to start off we have an interesting scene with a female character absorbing a butterfly. Any guesses on the meaning or future significance of this? 2. This book begins with a breathe of fresh air, with the female character being orphaned but somehow having a wonderful life, a career, and even some loved ones, generally we see hardship right from the begining. Any guesses what obstacles she might face down the road? 3. Lots of guessing in these first pages! Here we have a mysterious set of jewelry. Do you think they have more significance than just being sentimental? 4. After reading some into chapter two do you have any gut feelings or thoughts on the kind nuns who raised Darcy? 5. If you received the mysterious paper message that Darcy got off the sheets on the car how would you react and what would you do? Who is sending the message and are they the ones she should trust instead? 6. So far we have met 4 people in Fairydale, Darcys 2 half siblings, their mother, and the lawyer. Who if any do you think will be the biggest threat/problem and why? 7. Music in the night has our girl making a trip to the old church. Why do you think this music might be playing and who or what might be doing it? And go ahead and post here: https://www.ddlgforum.com/topic/66133-fairydale-question-answers-spoilers/#comment-380216 1

PigtailPrincess Posted July 13 Author Report Posted July 13 @RoseyLittle @Pink_MyMelody @Fox H @innerchildtml @SarBear55 So sorry friends! Fprum has been down over a week so I couldn't do anything unfortunately. But I had these ready to go so here are questions from chapters 4-6! Per usual post in the link below and spoil properly. Questions: Spoiler 8. Chapter 4 brings a story from the past of Lizzie and Amon. Who are they and what do they have to do with our 1955 story? 9. So the funeral ends in a rather weird way, with the body not being dead and then vomiting his organs before actually bursting into flames and really dying. Any idea why the family might have lied about him being dead? How or what happened to make him actually dead? 10. After the incident at the cabin do you think Caleb is the good guy in this story or something more Post here: https://www.ddlgforum.com/topic/66133-fairydale-question-answers-spoilers/#comment-380216 1

PigtailPrincess Posted August 4 Author Report Posted August 4 @Pink_MyMelody @RoseyLittle @SarBear55 @innerchildtml @Fox H Yall have been incredibly patient and I appriciate it!!! I was sick with a kidney infection and the fprum hasn't been playing nice and has been down off and on. But never fear! The show will go on. Here are questions for chapters 7-11! Per usual they are optional. Please use spoilers and post in the link below. Questions: Spoiler 11. So our female main character has woken up and all signs point to a SA. She sees an identical little kitty to Mr Meow appear outside the door who is very friendly. Do you think this cat holds any special meaning? If so what? 12. This question is a simple yet not so elegantly put one. What the hell is going on with Caleb and his weird behavior and lack of memory. Even if Darcy wasnt SAd like he says he still acted abominable and weird. Ir could this be all in her head? 13. Here we are back in the 1700s. Elizabeth finally meets her savior again one year later. He says he was detained for the year with other things. Any guesses on what could be so important? 14. Here in olden times we are getting hints that we are meant to believe that Elezibeth and her rescuer might be one and the same with Darcy and Caleb in the 1950s. Or at the very least that there is some multiple lives situation going on. Do you think every couple meets multiple times throughout history? If not what sort of witchcraft makes these two special? 15. Do you think the fire at Darcys house was an accident? If not who could have caused it and why? 16. This is an artsy one!!! Mr. Nicholson has a rather unique green stone on top of his cane. Please either find an online photo or draw what you think this stone looks like. 17. So Darcy seems to have had an imagined moment of Caleb biting her neck. She has had several of these where she thinks its real but then I'll hate she imagined appears not to have happened. What do you think is going on in these moments? Post here: https://www.ddlgforum.com/topic/66133-fairydale-question-answers-spoilers/#comment-380216 2

PigtailPrincess Posted August 9 Author Report Posted August 9 @Pink_MyMelody @RoseyLittle @innerchildtml @SarBear55 Hello all thanks for being patient. Here are questions from chapters 12-14. Per usual post in the link below and don't forget to spoil. Spoiler 18. So now Darcy is being told Rhiannon is a witch, that the ghost was actually a creature going after her, and other magical things and she seems to just be taking it all in stride. Why do you think she is so calm and accepting of these things? 19. Darcy speaks of Caleb's intellect and knowledge, saying he could go anywhere and be anything. Why do you think he is still in Fairydale then? 20. Back with Lizzie in the 1700s and her mother is revealing all their witch history to her. Lizzie feels she is withholding things though. What do you think that might be and why is she hiding them? 21. Amon seems unwilling to be intimate with Lizzie and her mother hints at her virginity having to do with her powers. Do you think the two somehow linked? Post here: https://www.ddlgforum.com/topic/66133-fairydale-question-answers-spoilers/#comment-380216
PigtailPrincess Posted August 10 Author Report Posted August 10 @Pink_MyMelody @RoseyLittle @innerchildtml @SarBear55 Alright all we are almost caught up! The site has been down alot but making it work! These are questions from chapters 15-17. Per usual please post in the link below and use spoilers. Questions: Spoiler 22. The truth is starting to unravel and Darcy is wondering who to trust. Caleb? His family? The Pierces? Amon? Her grandfather? Who would you trust if anyone? 23. Do you think Amon really killed Lizzie? 24. After touching the green jewel on the cane Darcy has a vision of herself as a woman named Sela even further back in time. This time though there is no mark on her chest but she still has her healing ability. Any insight on why she now has carried the mark in three lives but not in others? 25. Healing the boy on the beach depleted Darcy a staggering amount and Caleb mentions she isnt at full strength. Why would this be?

PigtailPrincess Posted August 13 Author Report Posted August 13 @Pink_MyMelody @RoseyLittle @innerchildtml @SarBear55 Alright we are officially halfway through now I think!

PigtailPrincess Posted September 3 Author Report Posted September 3 @Pink_MyMelody @RoseyLittle @SarBear55 @innerchildtml Time for another check in friends!!! For this check in tell me the timestamp period and/or country that would have been your favorite if you were able to be reincarnated over and over. Please post it in the general chat. Other than that feel free to read chapters 30-End! Can't believe we are already there! I know some of us are a touch behind but no worries I always give 2 weeks at the end to finish up so yall have until the 23rd! Per usual I will be making a special badge that yall can get if you finish. I will be making a short little questionaire that you simply fill out and post to earn it. Be on the lookout for a pole. I am gonna try and get us all together in chat to discuss the book and how we liked it. So finish up and be on the l9okout for some posts! 2
PigtailPrincess Posted September 9 Author Report Posted September 9 @Pink_MyMelody @RoseyLittle @SarBear55 @innerchildtml Thanks for being patient with me guys, been alot going on here. Here are questions for chapters 17-20! They are some good ones! As usual use spoilers and post in the link below. Questions: Spoiler 26. Darcy is trying to decide what to do. She either keeps Amon contained via a spell with Rhiannon or Mr. Nicholson which may well kill her or she waits to see what happens if/when Amon comes back. If you were her what would you do between the three? 27. After reading about what Rhiannon showed Darcy happened in the church that night do you think its true? False? A partial truth? If you think its true any guesses why it happened the way it did? 28. Here we are back in Lizzies time. Do you truly think her mother does not suspect or downright know she is still heavily involved with Amon? If you think she does why might she be pretending she doesnt? 29. If we are to draw conclusions it would seem Amon has spent many many years alive only to have Lizzy/Darcy his soul mate for brief periods during those years, leading to long stretches of loneliness. What affect do you think this had on his mental wellness? Could this have played a part in the church scene if it was real? Post Here: https://www.ddlgforum.com/topic/66133-fairydale-question-answers-spoilers/#comment-380216
PigtailPrincess Posted September 20 Author Report Posted September 20 @Pink_MyMelody @RoseyLittle @innerchildtml @SarBear55 Thank you again friends for being patient! I will for sure have everything done and posted by the 23rd for our end date. How is everyone doing? Yall finish3d or still finishing up? Let me know in our General chat. Here are questions for chapters 21-23! Per usual post in the link below and use spoilers. Questions: Spoiler 30. Here Darcy makes her way into what would have been her room as Lizzie with Amon back in time. She is receiving bits and pieces of visions from back then tpuch8ng the items. Why do ypu think she is getting visions here and not in the rest of the house? Also why do you think everything has been left as it was black then with the dresses and jewelry and letters? 31. As Caleb is watching Mr Nicholson fight he tells Darcy cryptically that he bit the hand that fed him and stile what Caleb held most dear. Any guesses as to what this means or what happened? 32. Lizzie and Am9n adopt her sisters 3 children after her death, what do you think of this choice? C0nsodering their immortality and complicated existence do you think this is a smart decision? Do you think someday they would have to tell the children? How do ypu think they would take it? 33. We find out Amon did in fact kill Lizzies sister and her husband. Do you think there was a bigger reason or did he just want to make her happy in a warped way? Why wouldn't he have been open with her if there was a good reason? Discussed it together? 34. We find out Amon has in fact been Caleb this whole time. So once again he deceived Darcy/Lizzy. Do ypu think this is a history destined to repeat itself? Will he always lie to her or can they move beyond it? Post here:
PigtailPrincess Posted September 23 Author Report Posted September 23 @Pink_MyMelody @RoseyLittle @innerchildtml @SarBear55 As promised! Questions from chapters 24-26. Per usual spoil answers and post in the link below. Questions: Spoiler 35. So we know from what Darcy overheard that Amon is not actually a demon but is something. What is your guess on what that is? 36. How old do you think Amon is? And where do you think he came from since he is an immortal creature of some kind? 37. So often people who can see the future go a bit crazy. Lydia had all these possible futures and bits of info that might or might not come to pass. Are you suprised she was able to work through it all? Do you think it unrealistic that she still was able to live a happy life? 38. When Amon lost Darcy in 05 he lost it and killed many people, what do you think would happen if in present day Darcy decided that was too much and she wouldn't willingly be with him anymore, even knowing they are mates? 39. Darcy has lived by several names at this point, since she may live forever now she might want to pick her own. If you could pick your own name/names what would it be? 40. Abel admits he was mad because he wanted the power of magic but only women in his family got that. Abraham as his brother also never had access to magic. Why then did they turn out so different? Abraham was so good and Abel so evil. Is this nature or nurture? 41. As we delve into Selas memories when she was kept by her mother we learn she didnt even have decent clothes or fancy things. Her mother appears to be rich so why do you think she deprives her? Post here: https://www.ddlgforum.com/topic/66133-fairydale-question-answers-spoilers/?do=findComment&comment=380216
PigtailPrincess Posted September 23 Author Report Posted September 23 @Pink_MyMelody @RoseyLittle @innerchildtml @SarBear55 And the next set as promised. Chapters 27-29 questions Per usual spoil answers and post in the link below. Questions: Spoiler 42. Why do you think Selas mother seems to be trying so hard to rewrite and lie about history to her? 43. Amon can read Selas mind especially well this early on as she hasn't learned to shield it yet. Would you like this? What do you think are the positives and negatives of it? 44. We find out Sela has been essentially tortured by her mother to discover the extent of her powers yet right before meeting Amon she is still excited to see her and craving her approval. Does this shock you? Are you suprised she doesnt hate her after all of that? 45. Sela busts out of the cell/prison her mother put her in after taking Amon. It isnt even that hard for her. Are you suprised her mother didnt place more barriers to her getting out? Why was it so easy? 46. Selas mother talked about using her for the empire before she died. How exactly do you think they planned to put Selas skills to use for a whole army? 47. It appears the jewel Ambrosius removed from Sela was her power. Do you think now in present day fusing her back to it is possible? Any idea why Amon hasn't already done that instead making it a necklace for her? Post here: https://www.ddlgforum.com/topic/66133-fairydale-question-answers-spoilers/?do=findComment&comment=380216
