Just thought you'd like to know, because you are eager Minions who care about these things, that I have apparently started Book 7. Ten thousand words written since Friday.
And some of them even make sense.

sorry. lost my cool
Bye Guys
*lets self fall back onto carpet* So fluffy.
you're... you're taking this surpirsingly well
*crawls under coffee table*
No I'm not.
ummm...
*melts into carpet* I am fluffy now.
if Mist's gone, Izz is probably too...
i wonder if Spakry will leave soon too
*starts punching bookshelf*
*moans*
He might never come back. *whimpers*
*hugs Eve*
I know you prbably don't want a hug from me, but you're getting one
and he will come back. It might be a few months, but he will... i think. depends how bad the flooding is
*hugs Nix* Only because you fed Cthulhu.
and i rubbed its belly
A FEW MONTHS???!!!!
*wails*
well... yes. as i said, it depends how bad the flooding is
of course, if he can stay with reletives, he might be back in a few days...
*sniffs* What if he drowns?
People drown in floods. That's what floods do. *cries*
he won't drown
from what he said, he had just evecuated, so he would be on his merry way by now
Trust me
What was the last thing I said to him?
most people dorwn in flash floods. this is not a flash flood, so he'll be fine
*hugs Eve again*
you'll say plently more to him, i promise
*sniffs* I didn't even know what he was telling me when he told be not to be caught up in the floods.
... he wasn't very clear, no
*reads comments* It was 'be safe'. WHAT THE HELL???
what are you talking about?
And Sparky and Phoenix didn't even care. *sobs*
The last thing I said to him before he left was 'be safe'
Spame were just emotional
And it's not the last thing you said to him, it's the last thing you said for a while
Same thing. Thanks for the dedication btw.
the Ded?
no problem. anything i can do to help?
This is completely off topic, but how do you use italics here?
< i > text < / i >
no spaces at all
I tried that, it said 'tag is not closed'
execpt for text, like
< i > text (space) here < / i >
no spaces between the text and the <>'s, and no spaces between the < and the i's
Okay. Thanks. *goes back to crying*
you did it!
and this is bold, right?
and what's this?
Oh. nothing.
*hugs Eve yet again*
Everything will be alright
the a thing is to make it blue
execpt it's not working...
Oh. *sneezes* I keep telling myself that Mist will be back on tomorrow, like he always comes back.
*becomes a cheese*
*becomes a tub of cream*
he'll be back beofre you know it
*slams yellow face onto table*
*becomes comatose*
ummm
you shouldn't do that...
*lies on fluffy carpet* *remembers Fluffy the Terrible* *laughs, then cries*
*trudges out of treehouse*
*jumps into lake*
*hugs her again, and this time doesn't let go so she won't hurt herself*
*eats live chicken chocolate*
*pulls her out of Lake*
No!
*hugs Nix* I'll see him soon. He'll be at the banana fest. I gave him an invitation. He'll be there.
...
i remember the first time i meet you. You ate a live chicken, and made a joke about Skyrim and chickens
Yeah. I remember that.
*sulkily*
i didn't get a invatation
I only gave Mist an invitation. He gave me two boxes of live chicken chocolates. *eats live chicken chocolate*
why do you eat life chickens?
*live
*exhales shakily* I remember when I met you. Thought you were someone else I knew, cozza your picture.
what was my picture?
Because. It's just one of the things I do. It marks me as who I am. Eating live chickens, purple bananas, the banana fest, Cthulhu, SLAUGHTERHOUSE...
It was the one you have right now.
who'd you think i was?
Another minion, but he doesn't go on here. We talk on this other social network, and that's his pic.
*sniffles*
oh...
i feel like writing Nix and Mist, but he was meant to write the next chapter. Should i do it, or not?
*shrugs* I don't know. I mean, it's not like we can ask him. *sniffles*
yeah...
i feel horible
Like, horrible because he left, cause I feel exactly the same.
well... don't tell him this, but Mist was my best friend. I know i wasn't his best friend, but he was mine
No, I'm sure you were pretty high up on his top 10 friends.
i know... brb
back
Ok I need honest opinions now.
If you picked up a murder mystery book and it started like this would you want to read it:
The wind shrieked and tore at the walls of the manor house with a fury that might have belonged to the devil himself; had he not already been and gone that is. The only evidence of his presence lay as a glistening red pool covering most of the kitchen floor and in it's midst, strangely, a small wooden horse with a broken left foreleg.
so...
i don't read many muder mysteries
But sure
how's the flooding?
Ooh, yeah, I'd like to read that one.
try thinking like a critic and say what you think needs to be changed about that paragraph.
You're in the floods too????
I'm fine with the floods until we start needing an ark.
I live on top of a hill. It's the people on the river flats that are in trouble.
oh yeah and those guys stuck up the mountain...
you need a little but of discribing the scene
...Nothing, really.
... actually, never mind
That's Mist! *wails*
Ok Nix. What should I describe?
okay, would you read a book if it started like this
Life is cruel. Don’t let anyone tell you any different. Life is hard, and it doesn’t always give you a reward for you efforts. Life never gives, it only takes
And it took everything from me
*staggers into blogland and falls onto the ground, crying, coughing and spluttering and completely drenched*
Poor Mist. Do you know how high the water level is there?
OH MY GOD MIST!!! *rushes over*
MIST!
*hugs Mist and doesn't let go*
*keeps crying*
I missed you so much
*starts stroking Mist*
i know you're sad, but im just happy to see you!
*coughs and hugs Eve back*
I was only dying for an hour...
I'm...in shock, just so you know.
Oh Mist! You poor thing!
@Nix I don't know about the rewards bit but the last two sentences and the first two sentences are perfect.
OH MY GOD, MIST!!! YOU ALMOST DIED!???!!! OH MY GOD!!!! *starts crying along with Mist*
*hugs Mist tighter*
I have good news, bad news and…really bad news.
Good news is I am alive.
Bad news is the house died and we lost all our possesions. Photos, my dad’s laptop with all his work and my laptop with all my books along with my work that I never posted anywhere.
And the really bad news…
*breaths in heavily*
I’ll just say that it’s very possible that the last thing I ever said to my brother would have been “Where the fuck did you put the rope?!”…And he’ll have to learn to write with his left hand now….
*sobs and wails and hugs Mist tighter*
Well, the house is still there, but all the stuff is ruined like I said.
...What? Wh-what happened to your brother??
what happened to your brother?
*breathes in shakily*
I'll explain the whole thing...
wow mist. that's serious. what area are you in?
are you near shep?
*is crying already*
And now I'm in a hospital.
I don't know how I typed all that so fast...I guess shock works as a pump or something for me. I still feel terrible though.
oh god... im so sorry
*curls up*
And...just after my grandfather too...
Mist... jesus
*exhales*
I'm going to go and clean myself up. There should be a shower around here somewhere...
*wipes face and stands up shakily*
...oh..my..god..
fuck...
*looks nervously at my brother on bed*
And to think...the last thing he ever heard might well be "Where the fuck did you put the rope?!"...that's just cruel...
But he won't die...he can't. That kind of thing doesn't happen...but neither does floods...
*frowns*
Mist's in australia isn't he?
*begins to walk out of room*
Oh, guys? No posts about this please. I'd prefer it if it was quiet...
*goes to find shower*
*whimpers* Mist, I'm so sorry. *hugs Mist*
Mist. What area did this happen?
I need to know!
... fucking hell
i think he's in western sydney
Yeah, I'm in Australia. I actually doubt this'll be on the news though. I'm really isolated.
I'll be back in half an hour or something...
*trudges off*
*sniffs*
Ok right. that's not near me or my friends so that's good.
Poor Mist
I gtg
Servus!
*moans*
i...
*spins around to Nix* I TOLD YOU!!!
jesus im crying...
*breaks down*
i haven't cried in...
*breathes rapidly*
*swallows hard*
Oh, Mist.....
i...
i didn't know...
brb...
*gets huge stomach ache* Mist...
*walks back in and hugs Eve quickly*
*hugs Mist back*
*sighs heavily*
It's alright...I think...
mist...
*smiles at Nix*
Nixion. I saw your comment. You are definitely one of my best friends here.
*lip quivers* I knew you would come back. *hugs*
Oh god, my tears are coming through my mouth...that's so weird...
*smiles and hugs Eve again*
*hugs Mist really tightly*
i have this tomach ache, and i'm shaking...
Guys, I'm finding it hard to think right now. And I doubt it'll get better any time soon. They've got Tomorrow When the War Began on in the other room, I think I'll go and watch that, try and think about something else.
*stomach
Me too...I feel sick...*hugs*
well, i would've watched something more cherry, but okay
And when I come back and I'm raging, my brother will have...passed...
O-okay...
*coughs*
He won't have though...He won't...
...Oh, Mist, don't say that...
you're brother will make it
No, he won't. He'll be fine.
*whimpers*
fffflick....
*covers face with hands*
*sniffs*
*thinks hard*
...Was it really last night we were watching Paranormal Activity 3, Eve?
Wow...it was...
It seems a long time ago now...
...Oh...Fine.
1st.
*swallows* yeah. So much has happened.
*sighs*
are... are you okay?
You know the answer to that, Nix.
you seem rather... calm
Alright? Not even remotely.
Calm?
...Not even remotely.
I'm just doing my best not to break down...
Ugh, coz its text.
I'm gonna leave the dedication rights to Eve this time.
*hugs again*
I missed you so much, I knew you'd come back.
I dedicate this to Mist, everything and everyone related to Mist, and everything that concerns Mist.
*hugs Mist*
espicially his brother
I use your name so much, autocorrect is now cooperating.
*smiles and hugs back*
Thanks, Eve.
And you too, Nix.
Especially.
Im so sorry Mist, but i've got to go, dinner
Bye
*shakes head* I was going to leave after you left, but I stayed. Thank God I stayed.
Bye Nix.
See you later, Nix.
I thought it would be months before I talked to you again.
I was hoping against that.
*sighs*
Lets just...lets just go and sit down, talk about something else.
