Another fun and easy-peasy thread for you guys. Simply pick out which branch of the hunter world you would be part of and tell us if granted the wish of being that particular hunter for a day/month/or even a year what would you? All hunting all the time? Order your squire about and sit around with your feet up? Get online to hang out with the rest of your hunter buddies? Set up another rocking bar like Sanctuary or find Ash and pester him? Come in and tell us what mischief or good deeds you would get up to.

I would have to say that I would want to be a Dark-Hunter. Samia in particular for her Psychometric abilities. I so would want to know the history of all kinds of objects for at the very least 12 hours. Cause it is so easy for that same ability to become super debilitating as you can't turn it off. I would admit it would be so awesome to be pampered and have a squire running around doing stuff for me for a day lol. I'd still like to try my had at the Daimons. Be interesting to see how hard it really would be to take them down. Then head over to Sanctuary and get some good eats and even hang out with Aimee and check out her brothers. ;) Then probably still make it home so I could send out my squire for my fave cartons of ice cream then get online with the rest of the hunter crew on my lap top as I watched my tv shows on the DVR.
I think maybe Danger. She's hot and puts the danger in dangerous. She can kick-ass. Even though she dies i thinks it worth it to back to Alexion.
I don't know, the DHs cannot really get together otherwise they weaken their ability to fight, the WHs are from different animal/human lines and are destined to fight against each other. They are related to the deimons and appolites and kind of sit on the fence (as they have their own shit hitting the fan). I would probably go for a demi-god or full blooded demon. Those have to deal with the big kahunas on Mt. Olympus or in one of the other Parthenons or with the head honcho downstairs (devil, Hades, or that new guy on the block) but most of them seem to live quite happy and quietly on the outskirts and lead their own lifes. They have either godlike powers which they can put to good use or some demonic magic and a free will to use it for good or bad. Aging is another issue. Wouldn't that be good to look on your prime for a very long time?
So how long would you wish to be Danger Aarati? Would you do anything else? Maybe actually meet Orlando Bloom her celeb crush if ya could? lolInteresting perspective Manuela. You make good points. The only reason I wouldn't want to be a demon is do to the fact that some of them wind up being bound to their masters for eternity. And totally not appealing on that side of things. But if like Simi, then definitely awesome way to go for demon wise.
I don't think I would have any problems to lay as a dragon tattoo on the body of a hunk of a man. But you are right, only if I am a higher ranking demon and left to my devices. But even the gods and semi-gods have to deal with crap. So why not staying me and read about the anguish of others?!
Dhfan I guess I'll be Danger until I finish the rest of the books. Alternatively I'd want to be Tory, just so I can be with Acheron
Haha, well that is the beauty of make believe Manuela. Can twist it however you want it while still being a safe reader too. Ya know if they had a chameleon character, I could see alternating between the two characters with ease Aarati.
For Danger and Tory as Aarati said she wanted to be either of those characters.
I would probably chosse to be a Were for as long as i could. Not sure which branch but at least they have some loyalties and strong freindships/bonds. As far as which Patra...not sure. Since i LOVE dragons, likly one of them. I would love the time traveling and abiliy to transport from one place to another. What would I do?? Have to visit a few places like England and all the castles, maybe back in time farther for other places if possible. Prob try to find Save to pester or see what info i could come up with(love him...cracks me up). Open a cool bar like Santuary and introduce all the visitors to the awsomeness that is Hockey (hmm...maybe just take over Hockeytown Cafe here in Detroit. that could work). So much more that could be done...
Well that the Dream Hunters have their emotions back. I'd definitely want to be one of them. Or be a hybrid like Lydia and be able to shift into a Katargari Wolf instead of a jackal. I think I'd like to be ruled more by the animal. That would be mad cool. Oh man the dreams I could play in as a dream hunter.
Ya know now that you bring it up Shari, I would not be mad at being Wink. He always had his emotions but he was such a dream prankster to begin with with the sleeping dust stuff. So that would be mad fun. Would be fun too, as you said to play in other's dreams.Also if I were to ever be a were-hunter, I think I would totally want to be one of Aimee and Fang's kids. Cause if I think they would be the only logical way I think they can be and live, I think they would be totally bad ass. Meaning they would be the first full blooded apollites who could turn into either animal. And maybe every other kid might be born with either a animal or human heart. Would be beyond awesome that way for sure.
You know, when I was a kid we had Dracula, the wolf man and the mummy, oh and the monster from the lagoon. The choice was easy then, vampire it was as the wolf man was not a thinking thing when in his werewolf form not even changing into something else and was only out to kill, the mummy had a bad dress code and the lagoon monster was all slimy and squishy. Nowadays there are just too many choices, can I be some mix between demi god, wolf and demon?
HAHA! I love ya Manuela. The Mummy had a bad dress code and the monster from the lagoon was squishy lol. But if I'm reading you right you want to be a female version of Ren? As I think he had all 3 of those covered. Well save for the wolf part although he could turn into that crow.
I think so although I don't like to be Native American (not anymore at least). Being a bird might not be bad either, it is one super power I would like to have is fly without fear of heights. I'd love to have wings, so yeah, Ren would be cool.
I forgot about Wink. lol I'd love to have those abilities and playing pranks on people all the time and be known for it. People and Gods beware. Mooohahahah a!!That would be interesting. To be able to shift into either the bear or wolf but what would their hybrid half look like? Cause Wren being half tiger and snow leopard, he had the appearance of both!! Who Aimee and Fang kids take on the appearances of both the bear and wolf?? That is a scary combo lol
*Would lol. Stupid auto correct

Actually I don't think SK would hybridize Aimee and Fang's kids. Considering the fact that both of their animals are on totally different genus and species branches. Hence I was figuring that their hybrid would be complete Apollite children(as that is the common denominator in their DNA make up) that could turn either or. I believe Wren had it so easy to look like both with his animal form is because both is parents were cats of some kind. So either way it's sliced for him he still comes out full kitty cat. Be a different story though if Kenyon started hanging out with Shelley Laurenston (i.e. the queen of the hybrid shifters, in my opinion lol).

Given that his mother was a goddess and his father mortal which made him a demi god, had the demonic wet nurse which gave him his demonic powers, and through his own native lure he could go crow. So pretty much aside from being an Indian, he had all the traits of a sort you were after in one serving. :P
Yep, you are right and I just didn't consider him a candidate because of my temporary prejudice. sorry :(I am just off Indians of any country at the moment (north American, south American or Indian indians). Must be because I haven't read SK for a while and having a man like Zsadist (BDBuniverse) in my internal vision as the non plus ultra male for the moment.
Although I am not really going to imagine how every male that I read about looks like. I do like some of the cover guys of the novels and sometimes you guys here on GR post some really yummie pics of prime male flesh, so I go with the flow...
I want to be an Arcadian Jaguar. Because I only have some sense of self preservation. I want to "surf a wave" into Savitar's omegrion meeting. And have Savitar look at me like "what the heehaw? Didn't I destroy the whole species?" I want the whole omegrion to be so silent you could hear a feather drop as they stare at me in shock.I want to be "the only one in existence, one of a kind, even if its only for a few minuted before Savitar blasts me, because he really seems pissed about Arcadian Jaguars. But I do have enough self preservation to give Savitar a you're awesome surfer beach card with all the stuff that makes him awesome, and telling him how sexy he is; in the hopes he spares me. And also because I really think he's awesome and sexy.I want to run away from daimons and be coincidentally rescued by my favourite heroes.
I want to fight some evil creatures but not daimons. I have a soft spot for daimons, because its not their fault Apollo was an arse. I'd only kill them if I had to/hurting someone I like.
I want to have the courage to do a "oh hail no she din't just say that kind of speech" going like this:
The daimons are cursed by no fault of their own just trying to survive by feeding off humans. I'm against them eating human souls and all for the Dark Hunters freeing those souls. But seriously you guys have billions of dollars in money, why can't a fraction of that go towards medical and scientific geniuses working on a cure for the Apollites? And maybe one day the Apollites will be cured. Instead of mindlessly killing daimons, which I get why you have to do it. But can't you have on the side projects for them.
There are daimons out there who aren't Spathi but with a bit of a kick up the arse might make great hellchasers, and can feed of demons. Why not a school for daimons who don't really want to eat humans, that trains them how to kill and eat demons. Amaranda? Cael? Anyone? They could be the combat tutors?
Why not start a world vision programme for all of us collecting demon blood of demons already killed by other demons, and store it in a hospital bank. Ask Thorn not to waste the folks he splatters on the floor. Instead donate it to the blood bank. I know there won't always be fresh demon blood,or even enough demon blood to go round.
But come on some apollites were so nice and all they want to do is survive. If I was in their shoes I might do what I have to to survive. If your going to kill them, helping them break their curse or showing them other alternatives to killing humans and not stereotyping them as "evil" is the least you can do for a species that was wrongly cursed. And some daimons are innocent.
And before you give me this moral code of since they eat human souls they must be monsters, save your breath. They do it for survival. Humans kill cows, sheep, hens, because we like the taste, not because we need it to survive. And before you tell me that its different. The cows don't lose their souls etc. That is true but at the end of the day its the same philosophy for both daimons and humans: one species sees another species as unintelligent, and weak; thus justifying their right to eat said species. Difference is the daimons do it because they have to. Humans because they want to.
And live after the speech
I want to meet Styxx and tell him how awesome he is and that I would of loved to have him as my younger brother if I was around 11000 years ago.
To tell Jaden that even though I'm not 100 perfect at being honest. I admire your integrity so much, you are my role model and I'm striving to be more honest because of you.
To meet Jared, Simi, Asmodeus, and Nim
On the last day before I come back to tjis world to pop into Kalosis and say to Stryker and Zephyra
Even though we are enemies I really love how badass both of you are. I admire your strength, cunning, and strategy. Then pop out as they think who the heck was that? Was that an arcadian jaguar? Aren't they supposed to be extinct?
I want to go to cafe monde for sugar beignets.
If I ever went to DH world I'd would yolo it. Even do stuff that might get me killed, just because I can.
Hell ya, Kat, you nailed it. So cool, your ideas. And I agree with you about the Demon Hunter school. You also cracked me up with "Ask Thorn not to waste the folks he splatters on the floor. Instead donate it to the blood bank." that is hillarious but so true. It is so sweet of you to want to comfort Styxx. Such an "aaawwww" moment "I want to meet Styxx and tell him how awesome he is and that I would of loved to have him as my younger brother if I was around 11000 years ago." Totally awesome what you come up with.
Thanks Manuela :). I've always been a big believer in killing isn't the only answer, no matter how hopeless things might seem. And when Stryker found out about the Gallu and got all those benefits yet he still has daimons who never got to eat the gallu's going after humans.I'd give him this lecture:
"Umm excuse me but why would you feed your daimons cheap takeaway? I mean humans? Really Strykerius? Why not feed your daimons demon le 5 star gourmet. I mean come on, what is this a third world country? I've seen the starving humans in Africa get food worth more than this. Seriously there are better demons than the gallu around, don't waste your time on them."
Well demon meat don't come cheap either. And as has been proven by Simi's peeps, they can totally trounce anybody with one finger.
But it's 5 star that's why it's expensive. And if you want the best for your race you gotta eat 5 star.Stryker: So Kat does that mean I can eat you
Me: Sorry babe I'm 6 star. Just too gourmet for someone like you.
That and nobody every really likes going upward on the food chain. Safer to go downward. Heck hence the Gallu were so opportune really cause they were right there and Stryker's wife was just the sneaky to think to put the jump on them.
Oh I'd much rather be higher in the food chain. That way I'm hard to predate on. Umm the Gallu deserved it, they tried to mess with Stryker or something.
Actually I thought it was that they got in his face in regards to wanting to be hidden or something or other. And Stryker's wife was like yea, we don't have to really listen to you. So lets just eat you instead.
Haha, she was definitely ingenious.
To be honest because Jared hasn't had his story told yet, and there are clues that he's a good person; but not enough clues for my mind to get over the fact that he betrayed his team mates and caused them to get slaughtered. So that's why I can't hate Zephyra for torturing Jared. And I actually feel uneasy about Jared, the same way I feel uneasy about Thorn. I have a feeling that once I get Jared's story my estimation of Phyra will go down in the sense, that every now and then I'll be like "Zephyra you bitch! for torturing Jared" and my heart will open up for Jared, but I won't stop admiring Zephyra...even if she is psycho.
That is the gift that is SK. Making us see all those shades of grey in between there rather we want to or not. And still admire the bad guys and even see another side of the in between characters in between there too.
there are certain characters she wants us to see as evil though. Like she definitely wants us to dislike them.
I always say for now. Cause honestly I thought Artie be one of the static evil beings and here she is delivering her ex's new woman's kid. So I have no clue after that one, lol.
I've always loved Artemis. When she hurt Acheron, I only disliked her temporarily during the abuse, out of respect for Acheron. But then I went back to liking her again after the abuse was over; but then again I guess I'm more open. Because I love Zephyra...so..My reasons for liking Artemis are this:
She doesn't seem evil...she just has personality qualities that I see in all human beings, including myself and my own friends. Like selfishness, jealousy, anger, and afraid of what other people might think about her. I have been just as selfish as Artemis, just as jealous, just as angry, and just as cowardly. But I guess the reasons her actions have caused more damage than my own, is because of the environment she lives in, the culture she lives in, and the way in which she was raised.
I have kicked my own brother hard, who I love dearly for something really petty. It might of been that he didn't change the channel to my favourite tv station...no clue. But what I do know is that I kicked him because my brother wouldn't obey me the big sister, it was petty and immature and I don't do that anymore. I wonder if I was a Goddess and I was raised to believe that I was important...would I have kicked my brother harder because I had a stronger sense of being more important, and therefore deserving of more respect.
Even in educational institutions there are people who care what other people think. They bully other people out of fear of being seen as less, and so they want to exert their own power. They gossip to bring themselves up. They'll quickly make friends with the pretty girl with the warm smile, but not the average girl dork sitting in the corner. Of course I'm generalizing here, but it does exist. And sometimes these people who don't care about the dorky girl are going with peer pressure, and afraid of being seen as different.
I see these people as cowardly, and susceptible to peer pressure. But I also see them as normal people who may be decent inside but could be victims to low self esteem, and other problems.
I have had moments of selfishness, in fact most of the time I am more selfish than I am selfless. But luckily for me because of having less power compared to Artemis, less responsibility compared to Artemis(i.e dark hunters) and so forth...when I'm selfish it does way less damage than when Artemis acts selfish.
But I do not view them as evil as I do not view Artemis as evil.
Artemis seems to act exactly as anyone I know would act. But unlike us she's in an environment with higher stakes, so when she acts out the consequences are more costly. And also she was in a different time and era. This does not excuse her actions, as I do not excuse kicking my brother who was half my size at the time. But it does make me see her as a normal person most of the time...with a bit too much PMS.
Also and I have to go against the status quo here, but back when Acheron was moping over Artemis not saving him, and hating her for it. I wanted him to shut up. I was happy for him to whine about his pain, and whine about Apollo, and I gave him my support. But I cringed every time he whined about Artemis not saving him...
It felt like Apollo is controlling and abusive towards Artemis, and whilst it's not obvious enough for me to feel sorry for her. It is clear enough for me not to blame Artemis for backing down when it came to her brother.
Artemis also seems to have low self esteem. It's only an opinion and she doesn't give the typical responses of someone with low self esteem. But I theorize this because:
She seems to see herself as second place to her brother. Now I can analyze this and break down why I feel that way, but I wanna keep this short and since this is only opinionated and it's based on subtle evidence and foreshadowing I won't go into detail.
I want Artemis to have a guy who's strong enough to protect her. And who doesn't have bullshit attached to him. Like Acheron had the whole end of the world attached to him. She needs a man to protect her, not a man who needs her to protect him. Hopefully this man of hers will help her grow as a person, because Artemis has the capability to be a woman who commands respect from readers alike; and she hints at this when she's ready to take on her mother for Katra.
To Artemis I wish her the best of luck, because I know she's better than this. And hopefully with Apollo out of the picture she is more free to become the woman I know she can be.
Interesting points. I do believe we have an Artie thread could use a bit of freshing with your views. :)
Uhh it doesn't seem to exist. Oh well never mind. My post is so long I doubt it will turn into a full blown conversation so it's all goods.
Actually it would and hold on. Let me check the archives. Could have sworn we had one.
Here it is Kat- https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...We just posted up some questions in there to jog some conversation. I'm sure someone will be interested in your thoughts there as well.
