Haunted

SPOILER WARNING for anyone who hasn't read Mortal Coil. Look away now.

Just a quick note to say that the Halloween story will be appearing as soon as I've finished it. HOPEFULLY that will be tonight, but it might be tomorrow, and appear on Halloween itself. I have to say, it feels good to be writing about Tanith once again, even if she IS ever so slightly evil...

SPOILER OVER

And speaking of Halloween, look at the desktop thingy you can download. Yay desktop thingies!





In keeping with the general creepiness of the season, may I also direct your attention to Haunted, a compilation of ghost stories by various writers, of which I am one. It's out now, and as part of the promotion, the writers are appearing as guests on various blogs around blogland. I had the good fortune of writing a piece for the Bookwitch, which can be found here:

I tried it on the other one. It works on both

Nixion Strange said...

well, when me and Gab tried it, nothing like that happened

Gabriel said...

Well apparently they got it wrong.

Eve the ROCK said...

I just tried it on the link you gave me, which is exactly the same thing, and it came up with Batman.

Gabriel said...

Both sides are trying to prove each other wrong.

Can't we just try another possible reason?

Nixion Strange said...

maybe there's a glitch when you do it one phones

Gabriel said...

Maybe, because Eve, you;re on your mobile?

Zathract Mist said...

Idiots.

Filipino to English.
Pikachu is Batman.

Gabriel said...

It might be a glitch. It's possible.

Star Inkbright said...

Hi gab, nix, zath, eve.

Nixion Strange said...

Mist, never call me an idiot

Eve the ROCK said...

Well, nix and gab, you have done yourself no favors. You have spoiled something funny and left me feeling superior to you both, because I can see batman and you can't. So HA, I say. HA.

Gabriel said...

It's a glitch.

On mobiles.

You people inisisT that your right.

No one is right.

Nixion Strange said...

Eve, you can see it because of a glitch

Eve the ROCK said...

Hi star

Eve the ROCK said...

Just viewed it on the classic version. It comes up with batman.

Nixion Strange said...

*frowns*
Eve, it's a glitch. Doesn't matter what version, when you're doing it one a phone, it's a glitch

Eve the ROCK said...

Fine. Tomorrow I'm going on a computer and I'm going to laugh and eat live chickens in your face.

Star Inkbright said...

Google translate doesn't seem to work on my phone . . .

Gabriel said...

It's just a glitch it's not something worth fight for.

Star Inkbright said...

So i'm not on either side.

Eve the ROCK said...

So until tomorrow, we are at stalemate. Is that even how you spell it..?

Anyway.

*is cold*

*hugs Mist for warmth*

Zathract Mist said...

Just checked on my computer too. Its batman. Also.

http://m1232.photobucket.com/albumview/albums/NeoZathier/37ed59d2.jpg.html?o=0&newest=1

Star Inkbright said...

Yes eve, that's how you spell it.

Gabriel said...

I'm not in any sides.

Nixion Strange said...

well, on mine and Gab's computer, it doesn't say batman
give me a sec to write this down...

Eve the ROCK said...

We're not fighting, Gab. We are sharing healthy debate.

Star Inkbright said...

I'm not on either side either, seeing as i can't find any proof that either side is right or wrong.

Gabriel said...

I am not on any sides.

Zathract Mist said...

*wraps arms around Eve and gives the rest of the blanket to her*

Star Inkbright said...

And i am NOT going on the comp just for this. Long story.

Nixion Strange said...

How would people invent a language where they got batman in one word? bat and man are two different words, and one superheroes name. There is no way they could but batman into a language. It's two frikn' words. How would you put batman into a sentence without referencing it with the superhero? It's a frikn' glitch

Eve the ROCK said...

*smiles up at Mist* You can have it. I'm wearing a jumper anyway.

Zathract Mist said...

Eve, I'm wearing a jumper, in bed with two blankets and an electric blanket. I'm fine.

*tucks the blanket around her*

Nixion Strange said...

brb

Star Inkbright said...

How big do you reckon zeph is?

Eve the ROCK said...

Nix, are you saying that if there is eight words in an Englush sentence, there are still going to be right words when you translate it to something else?

Star Inkbright said...

Is it a cold day (or rather, night) there by any chance?

Eve the ROCK said...

*eight

*english

*grins* Well okay then. *cocoons self in blanket and half-hibernates*

Gabriel said...

Zathract Mist said...

Just a little bit, Star.

*flicks the heater on high*

Eve the ROCK said...

Yup. My feet are freezing.

Nixion Strange said...

Eve, you'd need to repeate that sentence, it didn't make that much sense

Star Inkbright said...

It's pretty warm over here. Spring, blah blah blah.

Gabriel said...

daaaaamn it!

Nixion Strange said...

it's cold as...

Eve the ROCK said...

Take a look at my corrections. They're awesome.

Gabriel said...

Did anyone even look at the picture?

Star Inkbright said...

So, how big do you reckon zephyr is???

Nixion Strange said...

i looked at it Gab

Zathract Mist said...

No one looked at mine, I'm not looking at yours.

Gabriel said...

As big as a horse.

Gabriel said...

I looked at yours!!

Nixion Strange said...

I looked at your Mist

Star Inkbright said...

I looked, gab. But like i said before, i am havung no part in this arguement.

Gabriel said...

Mist I looked at your screenshot!!@!#F%YGRHE$NITYGUJHT^IY^7

Gabriel said...

I'm deleting that post. It reveals to much information about me!

Star Inkbright said...

THANK you. An ANSWER.

Eve the ROCK said...

*thinks* Last year, I had an argument over grammar with my class teacher. It lasted weeks. Every teacher in the year 6/7 unit took sides and other teachers too. I wouldn't give up. I was right, and he knew it. Eventually he just gave me a Chuppa Chup and tried not to make trouble with me for the rest of the year.

I'm not trying to make a point here btw

Gabriel said...

Because Zephyr is a horse in the greek mythology! I think,,,,,

Gabriel said...

By saying that you're not trying to make a point.

In a subtle way. You are.

Eve the ROCK said...

It's hardly fair, because everyone who was in my class last year still makes jokes about how I like to argue so much. It was ONCE...

*remembers every other time*

Oh.

Eve the ROCK said...

Hi Lynxia!!

Msd :(

Gabriel said...

Lynxia.
Hi. Then.

Gabriel said...

I didn't see her..

Star Inkbright said...

Yahoo! Answers say phoenixs are about as big as a eagles, like swans only slightly larger.

Nixion Strange said...

everyone says i like to argue
I like to point out when people are wrong, because it's annoying if you tell them, and you argue for a bit then stop, then they keep laughting at you and saying they were right
F*** them, I HATE THEM
Sorry, little... uh, outburst. I don't like a few people i know...

Zathract Mist said...

Aw... :( okay.

*kisses just in case

H Lynxia.

Nixion Strange said...

Hi maybe non-existent Lynxia

Star Inkbright said...

Hi lynxia!

How big do you reckon zephyr is?

Zathract Mist said...

Msd for me too, people.

Nixion Strange said...

what's a zephyr? Cause according to google. it either a bike or a god, which i already knew (but forgot...)

Gabriel said...

My best friend likes to argue. I let him win. Knowing that I'm better than him.


Mwhaahahaahahaha!!!

Eve the ROCK said...

*kisses back*

Nixion Strange said...

they laugh at me if i stop arguing, cause they think they've won
People in my school and primary school weren't particuarly nice people

Star Inkbright said...

Actually, scrap that.

Do you reckon zephyr is stronger than an eagle?

I do. Even ordinary phoenixs myst bs stronger, and zeph's a shadow phoenix.

Nixion Strange said...

STAR, WHAT IS A ZEPHYR?!

Gabriel said...

I think ordinary phoenix's are stronger because they can outshine the shadow phoenix.

Star Inkbright said...

Zephyr is the name of my pet phoenix. Flame gace her to me yesterday.

Eve the ROCK said...

Every year 7 girl at my school loves One Direction. It gets scary, how they can recognize the first four notes of their songs from the other side of the school, then they just come running...

And now I am "sleeping." :D

Gabriel said...

I could hardly care for One Direction...

What are they to my life again?.....

Oh yeah. Insignificant.

Star Inkbright said...

WHAT???

No no no! Zephyr was trained as a necromancer phoenix! SHE IS STRONGER! And she flies faster, flame said so!

Star Inkbright said...

So. Is a phoenix stronger than an eagle? And if so, how much stronger? A lot? Not very? Quite a bit?

Nixion Strange said...

a lot stronger

Nixion Strange said...

they can carry over six people... or so some say

Eve the ROCK said...

Remember, Phoenix years have healing properties. Never be kind to a Phoenix.

Eve the ROCK said...

*tears

Gabriel said...

I don't know....can they breathe fire
?"

Nixion Strange said...

well, if you're not kind, it'll burn you

Eve the ROCK said...

I think mist disappeared... :(

Zathract Mist said...

*is already half asleep*

Nixion Strange said...

they have a certain amount of control over fire

Lynxia Lost said...

One Direction... If I had 6 bullets, I would shoot them and Justin Bieber.

Nixion Strange said...

if i had seven bullets, i would shoot them, Beiber and that girl who sang friday

Eve the ROCK said...

*smiles at Mist* Go to sleep if you want.

Zathract Mist said...

I second Lynxia.

Gabriel said...

I don't mind Justin Bieber...

I mean, if he's dead who's the world going to hate?

Star Inkbright said...

*lools at eve, horrified*

*zeph hisses at her*

A lot stronger? Thank you very much nix.

Coz, the internet says an eagle could carry a baby, maybe a child if it was a stronge eagle, and i wanted to know if zeph could carry me.

Nixion Strange said...

Kony?

Nixion Strange said...

Oh! That reminds me of something...
Bieber 2013

Zathract Mist said...

It's okay. I'm happier here with the real you than the weird version in my dreams. :)

Gabriel said...

Umm. He's not exactly the type of guy you could throw a water bottle at.

Lynxia Lost said...

Rebecca Black! Do not speak the name. I would not shoot her. I would boil her in oil. On a Friday!

BTW, look up harry potter Friday on YouTube.

Eve the ROCK said...

*sighs* I guess I'm just going to have to put up with all you haters.

Star Inkbright said...

*zephyr picks me up and flies me to my fav ledge halfway up the cliff*

Thanks, zeph.

Nixion Strange said...

yeah, i've seen that Lynxia
Funny

Eve the ROCK said...

*is curious now* How weird?

Eve the ROCK said...
This comment has been removed by the author.
Gabriel said...

Oh yeah I saw that.

I don't hate them...

They're just insignificant to my life.

Star Inkbright said...

I think i am mentally incapable of holding grudges.

I always stop hating people after about a week . . . Even if i WANT to hate them, i can't.

Zathract Mist said...

Weird in the sense that half the time you're a tribute in the hunger games (don't ask) and the other half you're hating me.

Lynxia Lost said...

#Deathly Hallows,
Gotta destroy a Horcrux.
Looking forward to the movie!
Part 2!!!!#

Gabriel said...

What? To me...I just don't care..

Zathract Mist said...

My brain hates me so it makes me see things i don't want to.

Eve the ROCK said...

Try to hate ME, Star. It won't last an hour. I'm too lovable to be hated. :D

Eve the ROCK said...

Aw. *hugs Mist* I would never hate you. I would never dislike you, even a little. Hunger Games tribute... Kwl.

Star Inkbright said...

The other day i found out that llamas do actually spit when they're annoyed.

Yep, clever me. I must have physic powers.

Gabriel said...

Guys, how do you make your Post Background transluscent in colour?

Nixion Strange said...

you...didn't know that Star?

Lynxia Lost said...

Don't blame me! The voices in my head told me to do it!
Roses are red, violets are blue. I'm scitsophrenic and so am I!
Unicorns are real. They're just big, grey and we call them rhinos.

I got all of them on t shirts for Easter. I also got one with the high voltage symbol on it and it says don't anger the Gods.

Star Inkbright said...

You don't last full stop, eve. I can't MAKE myself hate people.

Zathract Mist said...

*hugs back*

I know. That's why I'm never fretting over them anymore.

*kisses Eve*

Nixion Strange said...

all my t-shirts say is random crap that isn't funny
Stupid t-shirts...

Star Inkbright said...

No i didn't nix.

But my subconciousness must have guessed it when i was inventing the superllamas and making them spit on me.

Eve the ROCK said...

*ponders* most dreams i have of you are pleasant. But they do like to trick me.

Nixion Strange said...

all of my dreams are nightmarish
Im glad none of you are in them...

Lynxia Lost said...

I want the wi-fi back!
Why?
1. I can go on my laptop and update my blog.
2. Change my profile pic to the updated one.
3. So I can go on Blogger on my laptop and not have my comments disappear or be behind on the conversation.
4. I MISS YOUTUBE!!!!!

Star Inkbright said...

*looks guiltily at pile of notebooks and hurrirly starts writing fanfic*

Hey, should i include zeph in my story?

Eve the ROCK said...

I once had a dream that my uncle and aunty were bike riding, and they were vampires and wanted to eat my leg off.

Nixion Strange said...

My nightmares make no sense...
But at a guess, I'd say mine aren't so bad because i hardly remember them when i wake

Lynxia Lost said...

You could Star.

My nightmares are usually the same and 9/10 times I remember them.

Nixion Strange said...

i wish i remember them, they always wake me up, but i can't remember them...
and besides, i have daydreams that are enought to scare me...

Star Inkbright said...

I've only had, like, four nightmares in my entire life.

The one with the crow, tge one with the other crow that was all cartoony, the one with the giant and the one with the old man and his dog.

I can remember them all . . .

Lynxia Lost said...

I wish I couldn't remember mine.

Star Inkbright said...

I can even describe them, near enough.

Gabriel said...

I always have this dream when I'm sick or something

Like I was a dandelion or somethings then suddenly this green war tank comes crushing me and I could feel the weight. But not like it was crushing it like my heart is being squeezed...

So yeah.

Eve the ROCK said...

I had a nightmare about a Chucky doll trying to kill me. I was four, and I've never even seen glimpses of the movie Child's Play.

Nixion Strange said...

when i have the flu, i always have dream that make no sense, and scare the hell out of me for no reason. WTF is up with dreams?

Zathract Mist said...

I once had a dream where me and my friends went into wonderland. A bunny named bablo told us to go somewhere do we did, then we got stacked by some ninja people thing.
Then my friend's dad arrived in some weird amour and was the ultimate bad guy thing trying to kill us all.

And then my friend's sister blew herself up.

Eve the ROCK said...

Dream Flu, Nix

Nixion Strange said...

i had a dream what a panda was eating me
long story...

Gabriel said...

I once had a dream where everything I want happened. And I woke up.

God, that was an annoying moment when I woke up

Lynxia Lost said...

I've only had one good-ish dream on the past year. It was good until the end because then someone burned you all alive and made me watch.

Zathract Mist said...

Whoever gets first, please write out a meaningful ded.

Eve the ROCK said...

LOL, Mist. I had a dream I was battling a giant monster with Tinker Bell, Donald Duck and Harry Osbourne from spiderman. Tink was eating spiders and Harry let me borrow his glider

Eve the ROCK said...

Someone gets ded rights

Nixion Strange said...

i had a dream that someone was popping my eyeballs out with a sword
Again, long story

Eve the ROCK said...

*kisses Mist* just in case

Gabriel said...

BRB

aND ISN'T IT LATE FOR YOU AUSTRALIANS?

Eve the ROCK said...

Every dream I've had lately has been screaming Mist at me. :D

Eve the ROCK said...

1:07 am

Zathract Mist said...

*kisses back*

Love you, Evie.

*smiles*

Lynxia Lost said...

*is on Sims* Ha! Eve just took your guitar Zath.

Nixion Strange said...

i once had a dream that some guy was twisting a sword around in my stomach
Guess what? It's a long story

Eve the ROCK said...

Love you too, Misty. *smiles back*

Zathract Mist said...

1:38am

Eve the ROCK said...

Everythings a long story.

I took Mists guitar? Unforgivable.

Eve the ROCK said...

Have you ever loved someone so much you'd give an arm for?
Not the expression
No
Literally give an arm for

Lynxia Lost said...

Yeah, it's pointy and black with a load of amps. You came and unplugged it and hid it under the sofa.

Lynxia Lost said...

Yeah, it's pointy and black with a load of amps. You came and unplugged it and hid it under the sofa.

Nixion Strange said...

for what? If it's for their pleasure, then no, that's just mean...

Star Inkbright said...

After i woke up from two of those nightmares, i lay there in bed making up a happy ending.

Like, once there was this giant, and he was trying to eat me and my friends and ny sister. I remembet one point me and my friend lay diwn on these random beds and closed our eyes so we'd wake up and find it was all a dream. Only then we opened our eyes again, and we.were still there, so we just looked at each otger and went "not a dream."

Eventually the giant caught us, and he wanted toeat my sister first coz she was younger than us and would taste better. Then i think we were all eaten.

So then when i woke up i made up that we cut oyrselves out of gis stomach and the wound killed him. Yippee.

Eve the ROCK said...

Hahahahahaha. Did I do that?

Gabriel said...

iT'S 3: 42 AM HERE!

LOL

Eve the ROCK said...

Yippe gab

Nix, that was the start of When I'm Gone by Emineminem

Star Inkbright said...

It's 4:45 PM here . . .

Nixion Strange said...

i new that *shifty eyes*

Nixion Strange said...

*knew

Eve the ROCK said...

*sighs* it's a very moving sing. Coz it's rapping, so he's talking, and it's like he's telling you a story. It's about a dream he had. Appropriate for the convo I guess

Lynxia Lost said...

Yeah, you did Eve. Zath's asleep and hasn't noticed yet.

Star Inkbright said...

I knew that too eve. Of course i did. Like i'd think it was anything else. *is definately not lying. Why would i be lying?*

Eve the ROCK said...

I wonder if he's asleep irl.

Lynxia Lost said...

I don't really like rapping.

Zathract Mist said...

Grr

Lynxia Lost said...

I don't really like rapping.

Eve the ROCK said...

And just to annoy you guys, I'm going to post the lyrics right here. JUST TO ANNOY YOU

Eve the ROCK said...

Yay. :) *hugs*

Lynxia Lost said...

I only really like it if the person can sing aswell and lyrics make sense. Not the pointless rubbish stuff like Rizzle Kicks. I hate them.

Lynxia Lost said...

Star Inkbright said...

*is really hoping i don't have to go now*

I probs do.

Zathract Mist said...

Ugh. More Eminem...

Gabriel said...

I like songs that I acutally makes sense. I don't listen to dubstep...all my friends do. It's like annoying/

Eve the ROCK said...

I'm not posting it. Languagio. And it's not pointless, Lynxia. It's a story.

Let's tell a story for 5 minutes more...

Star Inkbright said...

Well i can never tell what all the words in a song are anyway. I have to have listened to it quite a bit before i can work out what all the words in a chorus actually are, so i often don't know if they make sense or not . . .

Like, i am titaaaaaaaniiiiiiiiiiiiuuuuuuuuum . . .

I'd been hearing that on capital for aaaaaaages before i FINALLY managed to work out what the word titanium was.

Lynxia Lost said...

Sorry, I can't stand rapping unless it's by someone with talent.

Nixion Strange said...

Talent! I have none!

Eve the ROCK said...

Eminem is awesome, for your information. He's gotta be the best rapper of all time. He put SLAUGHTERHOUSE!!! In one of his songs at least four times.

Gabriel said...

I like that song

Only because it has these lines


"Shoot at the ones who run."

Gabriel said...

My parents say I can sing....

Then I listen to myself...

+.+

Star Inkbright said...

It does?

I heard it today. In Winfields. I think they'd got Viking on.

Stone heart,
Machine guns,
Firing at the ones who run.

Gabriel said...

I like how thingsthatilikeornot.blogspot.co.nz looks like!

Nixion Strange said...

see? no one listens to what i say
bafpangufitolkijquoc

Gabriel said...

Lynxia. You know about your song?

Can you sing it in a slower tempo?

Gabriel said...

I did listen. We can't exactly prove that you have no talent because you haven't really shown us anything that youre good at

Except for some few things like writing. and other stuff

Star Inkbright said...

I am very, very proud of myself for knowing the whole Starships chorus. It's a WHOLE CHORUS.

But then, i cheated, because i saw the lyrics written down:(

I don't think - no, i KNOW, for certain - that i woukdn't know it if i hadn't seen it in words.

Nixion Strange said...

wakamundi

Gabriel said...

Starships we're meant to fly
Can't stop cause were so high

Yeah that's all I know.
I listen to the radio too.

Lynxia Lost said...

Sorry, Internet failed.
