The Greatest Enemy is One That Has Nothing to Lose Giveaway (Flight Rising)

Update: The giveaway is over. Thanks to everyone that participated. Maybe you were a member of Flight Rising and this giveaway made you a fan of my blog. Or maybe you're a fan of my blog who has suddenly learned about Flight Rising.

If you are a member of Flight Rising and can't wait until my next giveaway to get dragons from me: You can always check out the Auction House and my Dragon Shop for dragons I'm selling.

I also run a small WRITING SHOP

I remember many years ago picking up Eragon by Christopher Paolini. Later I ended up reading Eldest, Brisingr, and Inheritance. I loved the world that was created and cared for the characters. Was it derivative of other works? Yes. Did I enjoy it? Yes.

For those interested in learning exactly what the Inheritance Cycle copied go HERE.

While going through my Facebook newsfeed I found the announcement of an upcoming Eragon book. My husband bought me both Eragon and Eldest so that my collection was complete. I am currently doing a re-read of the series to be prepared for the new book.

Grab Something Valuable and Fake Your Own Death Giveaway (Dragon Cave)

Update: This giveaway is over. I want to thank everyone who participated here. If you can't wait until next giveaway you can go to the Dragon Cave Forums where people will trade and give away eggs. I am also more than willing to breed upon request.

While the giveaway is over, feel free to discuss Balthazar from Supernatural. I would love to hear any theories and headcanons you have about the character. If you blog about Supernatural go HERE to find out how to advertise on my blog.
 
Balthazar is an awesome character on the show Supernatural. Well...he was an awesome character before he died. I wish he had come back and we got more of him. Though with how poorly later seasons are written I'm glad he didn't have the chance to be ruined by the show.

Crowley used to be an amazing villain. His help was sometimes needed but Dean and Sam never trusted him. Yet over the seasons he became less of a villain and more of an ally. He was such an ally that he actually sacrificed his life for the Winchesters.

Why do I bring Crowley up? It's to indicate the show doesn't like in the middle characters anymore. Or outright villains who sometimes help the Winchesters. If someone helps the Winchesters they are good. Or at least not unreliable as Crowley was in the beginning.

Balthazar wouldn't fit in this new dynamic. He was very chaotic in the beginning. He found out that he didn't need to follow a script and so had a lot of fun. He didn't cause harm to humans because he was cruel but because he didn't see them as much different than cockroaches. In other words: not deserving of any real respect. Which is what the majority of angels feel towards humans.

Yet Balthazar does have a sense of loyalty. He does end up getting involved with the Heavenly Civil War merely because he considers Castiel a dear friend. The only time he does ally himself with the Winchesters is when he realizes that Castiel has gone off the deep end.

And if Balthazar is brought back there is the little matter of Castiel killing him. Castiel was brought back to life twice so maybe God thinks that Balthazar's sacrifice has made up for his past errors. Anyways... the way Balthazar handles Castiel, Dean, and Sam couldn't be him simply forgiving his angel friend.

It could be he comes to help the Winchesters from time to time until he finally forgives Castiel for the whole killing him thing.

And now I'm mad I don't have time to write this fic!

Writing Session #5

I continue to write chapter two of Dracomorphs Part 1.
