First Competition Ends!

Wanna know what I did on my birthday? Do ya? Wanna know what craziness I got up to? Well, first, right, what I did was I started clearing out my office, yeah? But that was only the beginning. Then I started clearing out the kitchen. Then I got bored and played a video game. Then I went back to clearing more stuff. Then I checked the Blog. Then I cleared another room. Then I went to my parents' house for dinner, and it was yummy. Then I came home and my electricity went off. Yay!

Ahem.

Although the day BEFORE that I got to see all my nieces in their Halloween costumes (because I won't be seeing them at Halloween). Rebecca was dressed as a witch. Emily was a bumblebee. Sophie was a pig. And Clara... Clara was a skeleton, because she KNOWS who's going to be giving her the best presents when she's older. When I have pictures, I'll be sure to post them.

And what did I GET for my birthday, you ask? Well... um... okay, see, when I say it aloud, it doesn't sound that impressive, but basically I got some photographs in nice frames...

God that sounds boring.

But I really am the WORST person to buy for, as Laura was complaining to me last night. Everything I want, I pretty much have already- so what is there left to get me except really odd things that I'd never think of? See?

But some of you guys here, and at the Forum and the Facebook page, did all the celebrating for me, which was really nice of you. In particular, I'm thinking of Valkyrie V, who actually had a party with a CAKE. And Val V, I hope you don't mind, but I just HAD to post a pic of it.



I'm not really sure what Polar Bear Girl has to do with Skulduggery, but I like her style nonetheless. These guys really went out of their way to celebrate poor old Skulduggery's deathday, and they are all astonishingly sloppy eaters...


And in other news...

The Ameriminions competition is now over! I have been HUGELY impressed with your entries. They have been cool, atmospheric, creepy, action-packed, sinister, and funny- sometimes all at once! Now I have the quite enjoyable job of going through them all and picking the line that is best suited to the story I want to tell.

A HUGE congratulations to everyone who entered.

Eve the ROCK said...

Okay Lucy

Do not ask. You're just the only Lucy left.

THEY'RE ALL AS GOOD AS DEAD!

Luciana said...

A lot of people call me Lucy, even IRL...But my name isn't even Lucy. :s

Eve the ROCK said...

Excellent.

Okay, Cal.

Nixion Strange said...

what do you mean? What do we post there?

Luciana said...

Just anything that we'd like Derek to see/have. So fanfics, fanart, random poetry, things inspired by him...ANYTHING, basically. You could even put up pictures of things you've got that're SP related, like when my sister decorated some more things for me I am going to put pics of them up, most likely. C:

Nixion Strange said...

oh, and can you add a gadjet thing so i can follow?

Nixion Strange said...

I can't get pics onto the computer, so i'm useless exepct I'm writing a fan-fic

Eve the ROCK said...

Yay!!!! I want Derek to know me!!!

Luciana said...

Feel free to blog about whatever, though. If you've got any art I think we'll need a cover for this thing, it'd be great for us to have one of your guys' art as the cover! XD

Eve the ROCK said...

Eve the ROCK said...

Hello, Rim.

Star Inkbright said...

L THAT POST OF YOURS WAS AZING!

Star Inkbright said...

*AMAZING

Not azing. What kind of word is that?

Luciana said...

N'aww, thanks, Star! :3

Zathract Mist said...

Okay.

I never actually left, you know, guys.

I was just...REALLY distant.

Luciana said...

Everyone else was saying hi, so I said hi, too. *grins*

OKAY, TIO. X3

Zathract Mist said...

Okay, Αστέρων.

Luciana said...

Rim, I did. Even though it was majorly short...But I still did.

Luciana said...

Hey, Cal! *waves*

THANKS L!!!!!

Definitely agree with that Rim! It's been a long, long time.

Unapplicable. said...

...er. Anyone alive?

Nixion Strange said...

I don't think I am...
*checks pulse*
Hey, what'd you know! I am alive!

Rim. said...

Yup. Just watching the F1 thingy.

Unapplicable. said...

What a miracle! That's wonderful news, Nix.
*sighs in relief*

Star Inkbright said...

Βack!

*hugs everyone and skips around lake*

Luciana said...

I'm dead. *falls to the floor*

Unapplicable. said...

Your pulse is worrying me Nix. Stabilise it immediately!

Unapplicable. said...

Nixion Strange said...

How do I do that...?

No, that's just taken years of my life

Eve the ROCK said...

Agh!

Star Inkbright said...

I said: "You going greek too zath?

Proper greek or just starian greek?"

I'm not surprised google translate didn't understand it, cal. It's starian greek. English words written with greek letters. Coz i (mostly) know my greek letters but no greek words. If you trandlate it one letter at a time you'll get the message. Or just ask me:)

They don't have a letter for j or w or v though, which makes stuff a little tricky.

Unapplicable. said...

I'm looking forward to watching that movie, Mist.

Luciana said...

Will be distant, R.E revision...*sighs*

Unapplicable. said...

Ah! :D
I depend on Google Translate much too much!

Unapplicable. said...

Good luck, L!

Rim. said...

THOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!! nuf said.

Unapplicable. said...

Oh! I watched the Avengers yesterday.
I finally understand all the feels about Loki.
It was so good!

I AGREE, EVE!!!!!!!

FOR ME, IT GOES:
LOKI

Nixion Strange said...

Harry's scared

Nixion Strange said...

You know, I haven't watched Avengers yet, so could you please not give anything away

Luciana said...

AVENGERS IS FUCKING AMAZING! YOU WILL LOVE.

Zathract Mist said...

Proper Greek, Star.

Eve the ROCK said...

*zips lip*

Zathract Mist said...

These Harry Potter jokes are getting Ridikulus...

Unapplicable. said...

Ooops. Sorry, Nix.

Eve the ROCK said...

It's not proper Greek if you're using Google Translate.

Just sayin'

*becomes invisible again*

Unapplicable. said...

Can we please be Sirius about this?

Eve the ROCK said...

Neville Longbottom.

*gets the most laughs*

Zathract Mist said...

*laughs because both the HP jokes were taken from the comments on YT*

Star Inkbright said...

*looks approvingly at ζαδρακτ μιςτ'σ display name*

Now THAT is starian greek. I can understand that.

But i, um, can't understand proper greek. Or google translate greek.

Unapplicable. said...

I've got to go now...
Bye!

Eve the ROCK said...

Bye Calamity!

Nixion Strange said...

Bye Cal

Luciana said...

Bye, Cal! *waves*

I still haven't started R.E revision...

Rim. said...

Bye Cal!!

Star Inkbright said...

May the fours be with you cal!

Eve the ROCK said...

Revise, revise, revise like you've never revised before!

Nixion Strange said...

Eve the ROCK said...

Bye!!!

*throws strawberries at everyone and leaves*

Rim. said...

Bye Eve!!
I'm beat so I'm back and relaxing!

Luciana said...

BYE, EVE!!!!!!


I cannot revise. I don't know how...

Star Inkbright said...

*frowns* Ι think it should be Ζαθρακτ Μιςτ.

Νοτ Ζαδρακτ Μιςτ.

It should be a theta not a delta, i think.

Course, i don't know how you pronouce Zathract, so i could be wrong . . .

Luciana said...

I have so many ideas for this new blog and I have got loads of people interested! Yay! *jumps up and down, happily*

Zathract Mist said...

Don't really care.

Star Inkbright said...

THAT'S how you do a v???

:D

ύύύύύύύύύύύύύύύ

Thank yου!

Zathract Mist said...

I'm not sure.

I'm going by Google Translate, so...

Star Inkbright said...

*looks it up on the internet*

Eve the ROCK said...

Baaaaaack :)

Sh*t, I have homework.

Zathract Mist said...

*has just finished the Prologue of a new story*

Yaaaaaaaay!

Eve the ROCK said...

Hey, that looks like Eva!

Or Eua...

Luciana said...

Hey, Eve.

AND FUCK. I HAVE HOMEWORK, TOO! Wbd, English essay.. ¬_¬

Eve the ROCK said...

Are you going to post it on youR blog?

Eve the ROCK said...

I just have to answer some questions that hardly make sense...

Star Inkbright said...

The internet was most unhelpful. *glares at it*

Luciana said...

I have an English essay, about some poems...R.E and Food Tech. revision....And probably some other shit... :3

Zathract Mist said...

Nope. *grins*

Gonna finish this one first. The story I mean. Want help with you homework?

Zathract Mist said...

Never mind. It's up.

myuselessshortstories.blogspot.com.au

Eve the ROCK said...

Seems like an overload, Lucy. Well, to me, anyway, coz I just finished my homework. *grins sheepishly*


Can you tell us what the story is about then?

Luciana said...

It's nothing, tbh. I get more, usually. I just get given a lot of homework as A's and A*'s are expected of me... :/

Eve the ROCK said...

Commented!

I think C and above is just fine. No one agrees with me. :/

Eve the ROCK said...

The echo, echo, echo...

Luciana said...

I can't stand getting lower than an A. Anything lower than an A, for me, is a fail. I can't get lower than an A. I just...Can't.

Zathract Mist said...

Msd

Eve the ROCK said...

You know, brb doesn't mean be back in 50 minutes. Wheres Nix?

Eve the ROCK said...

See what I mean? See? See?

Kay Mist

Luciana said...

I am G&T so it is expected of me, as I expect it from myself.
I have a rather high IQ, apparently and many have said I have the ability to get into Cabridge or Oxford University (two of the top ten universities in the world!), yet I highly doubt such things. I am only aiming to get into Law school, as I thoroughly enjoy debates and if it wasn't for my hatred towards most Politicians I would get involved with Politics, but I am going to try to become either a lawyer or a doctor, I believe.

Luciana said...

Cambridge*
That's what I get for fast typing, whilst writing an essay comparing poems. ¬_¬ I need to learn to type more accurately, I lost the touch, I think...

Eve the ROCK said...

Oh. Wellthen, get those A's!

Luciana said...

I need those A's! Hah, hah. I should be fine, I winged my Mathematics exams and got an A* on each one.

Eve the ROCK said...

You must be really really smart then. :D

I'm not too smart... :P

Luciana said...

I will be VERY distant, now. I have to write this essay and focus! I hate comparing poems... ¬_¬

Luciana said...

LOL. I am not at all smart, I don't think. :')

Eve the ROCK said...

Focus, Luciana! Focus like you've never focused before!

Eve the ROCK said...

Don't be so sarcastic. Like your pic, by the way. You drew that?

Luciana said...
This comment has been removed by the author.
Zathract Mist said...

You are smart Eve, I thought we went through this already?

How could you eat all those live chickens if you werent smart, hm?

Luciana said...

Yeah, I drew that picture.

And I am not being sarcastic. I just don't think I am that smart, to be completely honest. :'3

Eve the ROCK said...

The only reason you are not smart is that you don't know you're smart. Does that make sense?

Is that you, Lucy?


*smiles at Mist* I mean SCHOOL smart. And common sense smart. Live chickens don't fall under either of those categories.

Luciana said...

It makes complete sense, my dear. I just disagree with you, there. I am not all that smart, end of. :)

....Yeah....I look horrible, too...

Eve the ROCK said...

If you are not smart, than I have no brain whatsoever.

You're pretty... :(

Luciana said...

I am definitely not smart and you would not be able to function if you lacked a brain...Your brain is one of the most important things, in your body. It is what causes responses, but not reflexes, that's the motor neurons in your spinal cord! :3

And I am really not...I bet you are, though! :)

Zathract Mist said...

Listen to L, Eve!

And you ARE smart, L. You both are.

I, on the other hand...

Eve the ROCK said...

See? I don't even know what a motor neuron is! You're plenty smart!

No, I'm not, and thats what's so depressing. Everyone here is so pretty and I'm not...

(by everyone I mean everyone who's shown their pic)

Eve the ROCK said...

Oh, Mist, you're smarter than me. THAT'S a fact.

I know a fact! Yay...!

Star Inkbright said...

*has just spent half an hour at mist's blog*

Sorry for disappearing like that. I hadn't been there for a while . . .

Eve the ROCK said...

There you are, Starrio!

Zathract Mist said...

What makes you say that, Eve? (it's not true though)

WB star. Spend more time there!

Star Inkbright said...

Sorry, zath.

Well OBVIOUSLY L knows more stuff about motor neutrons or whatever than you eve, she's like three years older!

No offense intended to anyone.

Luciana said...

I think you will find I am extremely dense, but that is common for those of whom have blonde hair, like myself. :)

Mist, you must be intelligent. You seem to have a rather high level of intelligence, at least...

Eve, I bet you're stunning! You're amazing, as it is, anyway! :) You're probably much more beautiful than you think you are! :)

Eve the ROCK said...

I'm just... *gestures to face* Not.

If you saw what I look like you'd know what i mean.

Luciana said...

HEY, STAR!
And indeed I am older than you all. *is going to be sixteen, this year* but...I did know about them years ago...I taught myself a lot of what I know...*shuts up*

Star Inkbright said...

Yes. Here i am. *nods*

*gets rid of greek keypad coz it's annoying me*

I'll try zath.

Eve the ROCK said...

Luciana:

Smarrrrrrrrrt

Luciana said...

EVE! DO I HAVE TO GO ON A MEGA RANT ABOUT HOW YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL?!?!?! BECAUSE I WILL. AND I AM GOOD AT RANTS, TRUST ME. I even convinced myself that I was beautiful! :3 And I am a stubborn bitch. X3

Zathract Mist said...

I'm not smart...and I'm also ugly.

Eve the ROCK said...

Your mega rant would be for zilch, I'm afraid.

Eve the ROCK said...

Ugly is not a word.

Luciana said...

Eve, I am not all that smart. I just retain information easily, due to things that happened in my past and learning things is how I coped with life, for a long time. Shit happened, I almost died, I was bullied, but to get through it all I read books. I read anything and everything. I learnt so much from that and to know that on an intellectual level I was superior to those of whom bullied me and put me down made me feel less worthless. Not to mention some of the knowledge I have is because I am 'naturally intelligent' - G&T, basically.

Eve the ROCK said...

Oh, Lucy....

If all that happened to you, wow you can cope with it.

But you're still smart!

Luciana said...

Ugly would imply the opposite of beauty. Beauty is not in the appearance, but in the personality. For one to be ugly, they would be of twisted mind and would hate everything, they'd hurt anything and anyone just to get what they want. But you are not ugly, because you're a nice person, at least to us. You're selfless and you're always here for us! You're not ugly, Mist!

Star Inkbright said...

L, THAT IS OFFENSIVE TO BLONDE PEOPLE. IT'S STEREOTYPING.

Zathract Mist said...

Uhm...
...
...But I am...

...And I mean that by what you just said too.

Eve the ROCK said...

*squints at Star's picture* Gosh, your face reminds me of a girl in my drama class.

Luciana said...

Eve, that's just a little of it. But I couldn't cope, hence the attempted suicide, anorexia, self-harming etc. However I am over that, because of you guys! You're the ones that helped me and now I will do anything to prove to you that you are worth more than you think you are!

If a fish was made to try to climb a tree its entire life, it would think itself stupid as it would fail. But if it was allowed to swim, like it is meant to, it wouldn't fail, but succeed. This shows that intelligence comes in all forms and everyone is intelligent, but in different ways to others.

Star Inkbright said...

I bet you're not zath. But who cares what people look like anyway? It's inside that counts.

Your outside is too stupid to understand numbers, which is why it roesn't count.

Eve the ROCK said...

I swear, I'm going to start singing any time now.

*is reminded of Madagascar*

Star Inkbright said...

Uh, 'your' as in people in general. Not 'your' as in you personally.

Zathract Mist said...

My mind is sick.
I treat others horribly and I lie to get what I want or need. It at least I did. Have done. Not anymore, not a chance, but I need. I still treat others terribly, I'm a mean person, yeah I get bullied and crap, but that's no excuse.
Hell, I lied to EVE!

*is now incredibly angry with self*

Star Inkbright said...

I do eve? *squints at pic*

Luciana said...

Star, I can say it because I am blonde. :L And t'is only a joke. Just like 'Woman, get in the kitchen!'. :)

Mist, you're not! My point is, unless you're a self-centered bastard that cares of nothing but himself, you cannot be ugly! Don't tell me you're ugly, because you care about Eve and you're always here for us all. You always help us, when we need help. I am sorry, but I think you'll find that that is what true beauty is, not ugliness!

Eve the ROCK said...

Mist, you're not making perfect sense right now.

@Lucy

So....

YOU'RE SMART!

Luciana said...

Not anymore, not a chance, but I need. I still treat others terribly, I'm a mean person, yeah I get bullied and crap, but that's no excuse.
Hell, I lied to EVE!

^You've changed. I used to be like that. I used to do anything for my own gain! But I have changed and it takes a hell of a fucking lot of inner strength for someone to come back from that, I would know. You've changed and realised your mistakes, everyone makes mistakes and if you can change things for the better and admit that what you did was wrong, then you're ten times the person that you used to be and ten times the person most people are! You're amazing, Mist! Don't let anyone, INCLUDING YOURSELF, tell you differently!

Zathract Mist said...

Huh. Let's try that again...

My mind is a sick place.
I'm a horrible person who treats others like crap. I lie to get what I want or need. Or at least I did. Not anymore, no chance, but I did. I still treat others horribly and yeah, I get bullied and crap, but that's no excuse. I'm still a mean person and still treat others horribly.
Hell, I lied to EVE!

*is now incredibly angry with self*

Star Inkbright said...

*shrugs* Whatever. I forgive you. *is a very forgiving person* i think it's my fatal flaw:(

But people change. Like in the Inheritance Cycle when people's true names change.

Althiugh i don't think you need changing. Everyone has goodness and badness inside them. You can't have the good without the bad. The only people who are all good or all bad aren't human and only exist in imagination. We wodn't get yoyr particular personal good qualities without yiur particular personalbad qualities. The same goes for everyone.

Star Inkbright said...

*your

I spelt your wrong twice in a row!

Zathract Mist said...

L, the thing that gets to me is that part of me STILL WANTS to be that person.
It doesn't make sense, but somewhere part of me hates what I am. What I did was wrong, was bullshit and I never want it to happen again. But part of me still wants to be a horrible person. And I don't know why.

Luciana said...

My mind is a sick place. A lot of people have sick minds, most of the time I actually try to work out the most efficient way to kill someone.

Mist, you might think all of those things of yourself, but I lie every day. About who I am. Luciana is like a seperate entity and I hate her, to be honest. I envy her, because I am not her. I am me, I wish I could be Luciana. Because she's strong and she understands how to cope with all this shit. I treat others like shit, sometimes. But EVERYONE does that, at some point. You're not as bad as you make yourself seem. It's as though you hate yourself and you're making yourself seem worse than you are, to justify this hatred towards yourself...


Can I just refer to this quote, here:
Good and evil are so close as to be chained together in the soul.

Eve the ROCK said...

Someone punch me in the face, because I feel like laughing now.

Zathract Mist said...

I do hate myself.

And I hate what I was.

And what I am.

Good and evil are so close as to be chained together in the soul.
But sometimes the good will diminish.

Eve the ROCK said...

*cracks up*

Zathract Mist said...

*looks at Eve weirdly*

...No...

Zathract Mist said...

"sometimes the good will diminish", what the hell is that?!

Luciana said...

You still want to be that horrible person, because things seemed so much easier like that? Or at least, that's how it is for me...No-one worried about how I was feeling, I could get away with blue murder, I could do whatever the fuck I wanted. Back when I was like that...I felt powerful and like I was actually someone...But I used that to my advantage, I wanted power and so I got it. I made a page, I made Luciana, I made a blog, I made this new person. Luciana is a new person and she has the power I wanted, but for the right reasons. Because people love her and care about her. She helps them, just as they help her. I gave myself new purpose, by becoming Luciana. I still hate the real me, but I love being Luciana, because she is actually important to people and she has purpose...Luciana is my reason for living, now.

Zathract Mist said...

*scoffs*

Lucky you. It must be nice having a reason to live.

But yes. Everything was easier like that. I had a reputation. People were scared of me.
