Stephanie (chasmofbooks) | 2875 comments Haha. What happened to the rest of the mice? Have they not appeared yet?


message 3: by M (new)

M | 11617 comments No. They have yet to be created as individual characters.


message 4: by M (new)

M | 11617 comments I’ll add to the list as get the chance to go through more threads.

I was going to edit that post, but there’s an annoying pink pop-up that makes it impossible to click the edit button.


message 5: by Stephanie (new)

Stephanie (chasmofbooks) | 2875 comments Pink pop-up?


message 6: by Caitlan (new)

Caitlan (lionesserampant) | 2869 comments Kirilee: Hey, don't forget me! Alison, how could you let M forget me? I thought we were becoming friends *pouts in corner*
Me: M, don't be offended. Alison, don't be offended either. She's a drama queen.


message 7: by M (new)

M | 11617 comments I’m sorry, Kirilee! I’ve added you.


message 8: by Caitlan (new)

Caitlan (lionesserampant) | 2869 comments Kirilee: *sniffs* That's better. Thank you, M.


message 9: by C. J., Cool yet firm like ice (new)

C. J. Scurria (goodreadscomcj_scurria) | 4470 comments I love that some of the mice have wives. That made me laugh! :D


message 10: by Stephanie (new)

Stephanie (chasmofbooks) | 2875 comments Oh man, I just realized that. That's so great!


message 11: by M (new)

M | 11617 comments All creatures have their problems.


message 12: by Edward (new)

Edward (edwardtheresejr) | 2434 comments I have sidekicks?
Terry: You already knew I was a sidekick.
Me: Yes, but you're Septimus's sidekick.
Septimus: Well, I guess I'm your sidekick, so ...
Me: What does that make Terry? My grand-sidekick or my far-right sidekick?
Terry: I think it makes me your minion.
(Momentary silence.)
Septimus: M didn't include Temperance in the cast of characters.
Terry: Easy mistake to make, given she was in a maximum of two posts.


message 13: by M (new)

M | 11617 comments Is Temperance a side-kick or a muse?


message 14: by Stephanie (new)

Stephanie (chasmofbooks) | 2875 comments I love the names of the mice.


message 15: by Caitlan (new)

Caitlan (lionesserampant) | 2869 comments The names are so creative :D


message 16: by Stephanie (new)

Stephanie (chasmofbooks) | 2875 comments I know. They're perfect.


message 17: by M (new)

M | 11617 comments Thank you! I find that a phone book comes in very handy when I’m naming characters. I could never have come up with a name such as Narvis.


message 18: by Stephanie (new)

Stephanie (chasmofbooks) | 2875 comments Hahahaha


message 19: by C. J., Cool yet firm like ice (new)

C. J. Scurria (goodreadscomcj_scurria) | 4470 comments I don't mean in a bad way it made me laugh, I just liked that some of these particular characters were married to each other.


message 20: by Christa VG (new)

Christa VG (christa-ronpaul2012) Oh that is brilliant M! I had never thought of that, I look up "Strange Names" on the inter-web.


message 21: by M (new)

M | 11617 comments When I’m working on a story, I don’t know what I’d do without a phone book.

CJ, I was trying to be funny! With marriage comes marital problems. I guess it just came off as cynical. The mice do seem to be happily married, though.


message 22: by Stephanie (new)

Stephanie (chasmofbooks) | 2875 comments Thank goodness. Think of the drama we'd have if they weren't!


message 23: by M (new)

M | 11617 comments Hmmm.


message 24: by Stephanie (new)

Stephanie (chasmofbooks) | 2875 comments ?


message 25: by M (new)

M | 11617 comments I have a feeling Narvis and Loretta may be having trouble before long.


message 26: by Stephanie (new)

Stephanie (chasmofbooks) | 2875 comments Oh, of course. I shouldn't have said anything.


message 27: by Christa VG (new)

Christa VG (christa-ronpaul2012) How could you not have trouble when your wife's name is "Loretta"?


message 28: by Stephanie (new)

Stephanie (chasmofbooks) | 2875 comments Hahaha, or Harriet.


message 29: by M (new)

M | 11617 comments ?


message 30: by Stephanie (new)

Stephanie (chasmofbooks) | 2875 comments The name Harriet makes me think of a really crotchety old lady.


message 31: by M (new)

M | 11617 comments I should probably use a more up-to-date phonebook.


message 32: by Stephanie (last edited Dec 07, 2012 06:56AM) (new)

Stephanie (chasmofbooks) | 2875 comments *shrugs* Some of the best names are the old ones. Well, the best names for characters that is.


message 33: by Kyra (new)

Kyra (Nikara) | 1221 comments Sara: I am not a sidekick.
Nikara: You're not the primary person, either.
Kyr: I LOVE THE MICE!!!
Sara: Traitor!!!
Nikara: Still hung up on the honeycomb?
Kyra: Do you think if anyone ever bothered to listen to our conversations, we'd get tossed in the looney bin?
Nikara: I think we already are in the looney bin.
Sara: Interesting. Alison's last name is Doura?


message 34: by Guy (new)

Guy (egajd) | 11249 comments M, this is a great idea. I've kept a list of my own for a while to keep up, but didn't think to create a thread. Thank you!


message 35: by M (new)

M | 11617 comments I had to keep a list of the mice, or I couldn’t remember which was which.


message 36: by C. J., Cool yet firm like ice (new)

C. J. Scurria (goodreadscomcj_scurria) | 4470 comments Det. Mallard: Characters... well how do you become seen as a character?

Me: You. You are a character!

Det. Mallard: (Makes noise) People do say I am quite the character.

Me: (Sighs). Nevermind. Pretend we didn't talk about this.
