Word I don't ever want to read again in a story:

Obsidian.

Thank you, and goodnight.

I swear I am not making this up:

Oxford English Dictionary. Ebon (eh-bahn) Adj. 1) Word used by fanfic writers to describe something "black" in just a shade more irritating fashion.

You can't make up stuff like that. *nods*

Actually, it is in the OED; Shakespeare, Spenser, Dryden, and Keats all use it (as well as Terry Pratchett, which is where I picked it up). It's just really annoying, as a word. How hard is it to add the Y?

*grins*

*will stop spamming this post now*
