What a wonderful way to start off a post, eh? I'm going a little nuts here, all this snow is sending me a little bit around the proverbial bend. I'm doing a little work, although not TOO much on the run up to Christmas. I'm way ahead of schedule, though, and having a blast.
I managed to get all my Christmas shopping done, too. Well, most of it. Laura's present is being shipped over from the UK tomorrow, hopefully- that is, if the weather doesn't close the airports again. That's the only worry I have this year.
Every Christmas Eve, Laura and her sister Katie come over and we all sit at the kitchen table and they babble on in this weird sister-talk thing of half-finished sentences and references to things I know nothing about, and then we exchange presents. My presents to them are always AWESOME. Their presents to me usually consist of a jar of boiled sweets.
Oh look, here's one of my doggies!
Where was I?
Oh yes, Laura and Katie. So that's the tradition, that's what we've been doing for the past few years. I have Katie's present already bought and ready to hand over, so I'm just hoping that Laura's gets here in time. Also being shipped over are the presents for my mother and my sisters, but it's Laura who's the important one. The others will understand if their gifts arrive late. Laura is the only one who will look at me with those eyes...
Speaking of eyes, look at this! I'm fairly certain a reader in Australia (or possibly New Zealand) brought these to one of my events back in... in... well, whenever I was over there.
Check it out! It's Skulduggery and the Grotesquery!
Which reminds me- I'm going to read ten pieces of fan fiction this Christmas, just to spoil myself. So if you have any favourites out there, let me know- and yes, you may suggest your OWN fan fiction, it's not as arrogant as it sounds...
These pieces would, preferably, be on the shorter side. Obviously, I'm not going to be reading huge multi-part stories, because that would mean I'd have to miss Doctor Who on Christmas Day, and that is NOT going to happen AGAIN.
And look! Another picture! This time of a some truly odd people dressed as Skulduggery characters!
And LEGO SKULDUGGERY AND VALKYRIE!
How are you guys going to be spending Christmas, by the way? We're doing some of our visiting on Christmas Eve, then the second half of visiting Christmas Day, and then mmmmmmm dinner...
After which, my cousins will be coming over to my parents' place, and we'll all play a game and eat turkey sandwiches. It's my job to pick a new game every year. We started off with poker, then decided that was clearly too grown-up for us, so this year we'll be playing Pictionary- the game of kings.
And these three little ladies will be joining the Landy clan for their first ever Christmas. The twins are dressed as the most coolest character EVER in the world (and being held on the knees of people I have never seen before), and little Sophie is dressed as some kind of... er... pumpkin... thing...
These pictures were obviously taken at Halloween.
My sisters do NOT dress their children like this normally.
Honest.
If I don't post again by Saturday, then a big Merry Christmas to all my Minions, my Munchkin Army, and my Ninja Leprechauns. For those of you who don't celebrate Christmas, you all get a big cheery wave and a slightly awkward expression.
I will write again soon, if only to tell you what astonishingly disappointing present I get from my sisters this year...

«Oldest ‹Older 401 – 600 of 4044 Newer› Newest»I do have to insult her because she DESERVES it. There's lot of fowl names I could call her now, but I'm not doing so people don't feel bad of me before I go. And I am only returning once Lunar either doesn't bother with the fanfic. Or doesn't kill anyone. Bye.
put not out.
*sighs*
Now I have to think of a completely new idea. This is really depressing for Christmas time. I'm trying to think of something else now...
I'll ask her again. That's what I'm going to do.
What's Nicolette's taken name?
Is it Nicolette?
It may be a silly question...
Her name's Nicolette Croga.
You can kill me if you want, Lunar.
But you don't get it... my character IS me. It looks like me, does the same things as me. I'm very good with a sword, I'm a good shot with a gun, it wears the same things as me. It's age is the only difference, and that's what one of my grandma's neighbours THOUGHT i was. She thought I was twenty. I'm not being a baby, but if you kill my character in your fanfic. You ARE killing ME.
Personally, and this is a random post, I think Val should dye her hair red. It's awesome being a redhead. Not gingery red, I mean like blood red or Fiery red. Something... interesting.
Thinking...
Same Dragona, I can do most of the things my character can, except do magic. I even have the weapons she uses. But I don't mind, you can kill me as many times as you want.
Because she WAS being serious.
I told her I would add her into my Transformers fanfic and have her getting killed by a bush or a friendly fire incident. and she WANTED it. It WAS a joke what I said I was going to have her getting killed by something stupid.
I think both of them got annoyed that the other wasn't letting them do what they wanted. Dragona didn't want his character killed, but Lunar had her entire fan fic planned around that event so they both felt like the other was being unreasonable..... I think, that's what I gathered from their conversation anyway.
Use my character right for take it out completely :P that's MY rule.
...
Bye Kallista.
Hey Sarthacus.
Hi Sarthacus.
So........ are you staying Dragona?
Depends on Lunar.
I think she's changing it. In one comment she said
Lunar Tears, the Girl Which Wants her Name to be Really Ironic in a Non-Ironic way said...
*sighs*
Now I have to think of a completely new idea. This is really depressing for Christmas time. I'm trying to think of something else now...
I didn't agree to anything like that Kallista. I always ask what my characters would like to be/do in my fanfic if I have any other than SP. Take my Camelot fanfic for example, I told them the list of characters they could be from that time/place and then they could pick, or make up their own. I did not agree to be killed.
Just got my lunch... I didn't MEAN it when I said Dragona would do undignifying things, because that would be someone entirely different to Dragona.
And Dragona, I just think it would be cool if I got killed by a bush in a fanfic. That's all.
And the FanFic was just where a lunatic goes around killing mages under 21. That's all I'm saying in case I decide to use the idea again.
The FanFic is just about this girl who learns about magic, after she meets this cool and, kinda scary group (that's you lot).
But if Dragona doesn't want to die, then he doesn't have to die. That's OK.
So Dragona, I'm sorry if I upset you. But can we get past this, please? It's Christmas, the season for forgiving and friendship.
Bye Kallista.
Bye Kallista
Bye Kallista.
Lunar, yes, we can get past it, as it is Christmas lol. But you said mages under 21? If you read my character Bio he's 83. HA! YOU WOULDN'T KILL ME ANYWAY! IF YOU HAD SAID THAT BEFORE...
You didn't read my character bio did you?
I did read your characters bio.
The mage was killing other people
You lot were going to try and fix it
Ah. I would have killed him anyway. I am NINJA!
Well... it's not going to happen now... is it?
*looks hopefully at Lunar*
And then I was going to go in a murderous rage and try to destroy the world because I thought you'd died
But then it would turn out you hadn't really died and that you just needed for people to think that for some reason I would make up later
But now I realise Dragona Pine wouldn't hide or pretend he's dead, because he'd make up a sneaky and cunning plan, and face whatever it was
:)
Merry Christmas! :D And thank you LOADS for the letter reply and card :DD Read ANYTHING by NerdySkeleton or Mademise Morte or Those Creepy Kids, on fanfiction.net as they're AMAZING writers. (None of which are me, by the way XD)
Hope you have a good Christmas!!! :D
No, I'm trying to think up of a different storyline, a one that will be cool and sneaky and awesome, but my imagination isn't very good at the moment...
That's a cool plot lol.
I think you should read some stuff by Flaring Rhythm, Mr Landy. It's been a while since I've read something by her, and I think she's got 108 chapters, which starts to get repetitive, but the first 40 I enjoyed :~)
So... I might try to draw Emily the Strange...
And I do mean TRY...
Back
Why is Narnia on tv?
They always show reruns of movies when a new one in the series comes out
I wanna see the new Narnia in cinema... If only to see the SP trailer...
Hi Darkane
Narnia is weird...
New drawing on my blog.
Narnia is amazing...
I might turn it off.
1ST!
New drawing on my blog.
Right Lunar. Agreement again.
Under this declaration, bla bla bla, de bla bla bla.
It states that if Lunar Tears does not make any attempt to kill Dragona Pine in her fanfic everything shall be normal again.
Please Sign on the dotted line:
Dragona Pine
.......................
.......................
How do I sign on the dotted lines?
Lunar Tears
..................
I left a comment Darkane
Hehe... that's MY way of agreeing to something... too formal but ah well...
So did I Darkane.
Thanks guys. :D
I like swords... they are cool...
Please tell me that's not snow...
*stops pouring glitter on Lunar's head*
Sorry...
Hmm...
*takes a glitter gun*
There's no need to apologise, Dragona...
Oh!
I've just remembered!
I'm just going to read Sarthacus' story
brb
Don't start a glitter war please Lunar... I was joking...
Lol how could you forget SARTHACUS' story? xD
*Stares at the glitter guns in Dragonas and Lunars hands. Backs away*
Stand off.
Standing off... glitter guns are unaffective anyway.
*drops gun*
Oh, I hope I get Fable 3 for Christmas...
@Dragona, are you going to continue your transformers fan fic. It was really good.
Hey Sarthacus.
I'm writing the second part Darkane.
I think I've rushed it a bit though, I'm already on a fight scene.
YAY!!!!!! When do you think you'll have it posted?
DEFFINATLY by the 4th Jan, can't tell really...
I've completely forgotten about my SP fan fic..... do you think I should write a 17th part?
Yeh... you should Darkane, I wouldn't continue with the one where everyone was dead. But of course you should do a 17th part, your fanfic is really awesome.
I suppose. I couldn't just leave it where I get dragged off and all of you are left standing in the middle of the docks wondering what to do.
It's a bit obvious what we would do... come look for you...
hi guys...
internet's slow again, and i'm afraid i cant wish u guys 'merry xmas' at xmas cause u c, i'm goin 2 my grandparents house, and my sis who is at another house of mine wants 2 borrow this laptop and broadband. i'll b at my grandparents' 4 3 days... so, although this is 2 early( and also unsatisfyin cause i cant say this when xmas with all of u)...

WTF Lunar?
What does that mean?
do u hv 2 use 'WTF' dragona?
it's almost xmas...
People are saying things which make no sense, so I think that WTF is appropriate.
Rolling On The Floor Laughing Insanely So Much The Men In White Coats Come And Drag Me Away
That's what it means
wth is better.
wow, this time, 'google' is kindda interestin...
Headless horsemen are awesome.
I just realised... a MASSIVE movie mistake. On Narnia, that person got a bottle of stuff that "heals all wounds" but when they used it on this boy he still had a cut on his lip. Make any sense to anyone?
Or I could have said

In Harry Potter, on the train, when the camera is on Ron, at first he has a middle parting, but then the camera goes to Harry, and then the camera goes back to Ron, and his hair has a side parting
Watch "Great Movie Mistakes" which is on sometimes, it shows things which you really don't notice, like the film crew in a mirror on a james bond film.

Scary music.
so, what'd u hope 2 get on xmas?
New headphones.
Before I starting ranting, as per usual, I shall post this, because it is the epicest story I have ever appeared in, unfortunately it is also the only, so there's still a chance for it to get beaten.
Well, I would post it, but upon link hunting it's on a member's only and no exceptions site so...
On to the rant.
*Warning this will consist of information of no relevance what so ever to those of you who have lives, and aren't killing time to Christmas. And the sane, although I fully maintain all who read the literary genius of a unnamed individual ,in this needlessly long warning at least, with a planet sized ego are at least slightly insane. I know for a fact I am quite insane.After reading this long and ominous warning you'll probably skip to the important parts i.e. the next comment.
What is up with the Valkyrie's age? Here I was under the impression she was a January baby and suddenly BAM! she 15 to 16 in five months and just in the nick of time for Christmas too. Also she started school (if she is a January baby) when she was...(12 take (eight plus 1))... 3. Who starts National/Primary school when they're 3?
And Clarabelle was one of the Professor's new assistants. That implies at least one other assistant. I like to think of them fondly as Jeff, the both lazy and nonexistent, and Louise the Invisible. The Professor (god give him a bed in heaven) did know how to pick assistants.
D'ya what's a good film? The Nightmare before Christmas, I think I might go as Sally next ear, if I forget to go as Velma. Me, my sister, Jimmy Brian and Louise are all going as the Scooby Doo Mystery team for Halloween next year, Velma, Freddie, Shaggy, Scooby and Daphne, respectively. I love making costumes. My giant lego man was my best, methinks...

I hope you agree. Well you'd have to see some of my other work to do that but I'm really to lazy...
I smell dinner...
PS3.

Knight have you decided what to buy your friend yet?
SNOODS!

WHAT DARKANE?
I'm not allowed on Xmas day.

WHY DO PARENTS HAVE TO BE SO CRUEL?
She might forget, probably not though. Evil.
Hey Lunar.

(Amazing because of the presents)
I'll be here tomorrow.

I'll probably be here tomorrow...
But not Christmas day...
Although, on Christmas day I might be able to sneak on for 5 minutes, but...
I hope I can make it to Durham at Christmas...
I hear the cake at my Aunty's is huge this year...
I'll be here tomorrow, not Christmas day, and I shall be on at Boxing Day.
I won't be on on Christmas day either.:(
