Kony 2012

Hello there,

Do you have half an hour to spare? This doesn't have anything to do with me or my books. This has to do with changing the world. This has to do with helping people you've never met. At the end of the half hour, you don't have to do anything. You don't have to donate, or sign, or even share the video. You can if you want, but you don't have to. I'd just like you to KNOW. I'd like us all to be a part of this, to know what's going on in the world and to know that there are people who are determined to make a change. And I'd just like you to know the name Joseph Kony, who is more of a monster than I could ever create in my writing.

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

If it's to put a character I don't have one that I'm willing to put forth, so asking is useless.

Jakro Tintreach said...

I just need names... unless you have backgrounds... and read the damn post< I want new characters

Lavender Hope said...

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

I don't have names to give. I need the spare names I have.

Star likes to use her account with the comment problems, so I'm not sure if we'll be able to see her anyway...

*mumbles*
I wish she didn't though... then I could see her too.

Invisible_Fly said...

I should probably go to bed now. But it was nice talking to everyone :)

Lavender Hope said...

Good night Fly! Hope to talk to you again!

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Sparky...

Sparky Braginski said...

Not here.

Sparky Braginski said...

Or...

Lavender Hope said...

Val, did you read my character's description yet? after I posted it, I realized that I should have made it in 3rd person writing instead of 1st... I hope it's still okay though...

Sparky Braginski said...

Yes Val?

Be quick.

Lavender Hope said...

SPARKY! :D HI! I got first again!

Lavender Hope said...

Sparky Braginski said...

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Oh, I was just saying you'd come. *tackles hugs*

Sparky Braginski said...

Oh.

Then I must go.

But first, do I need to put info on my OC?

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

I got your info from the character contest... See? I'm so brilliant :)


*hugs until she leaves*


Oh, and if Zinnia (Amanda) is crazy like Ivy, just not in a murderous way, would Hayley like or dislike her?

Lavender Hope said...

PS: I hope my character has a spot in the story Val. Bye now!

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

WAIT! Does your character have an American accent?

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

If anyone sees Shadow, Flame, or Eve, tell them to check my blog!!!

Johanna Remmus (The Mad One) said...

Hi. I can't watch it right now but I'll watch when I have a chance.

Lavender Hope said...

Who, Val? Mine?
*thinks*
...yeah. she has an California accent. But she likes to talk in a fake British accent sometimes. Cause she likes the sound of it.

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Thanks. *adds to character*

Jakro Tintreach said...

oh... val!!!!!! my character also has american accent, but uses an Irish whenever meeting someone new or arguing

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Gotta go - bye!

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Got it, Jakro!

Johanna Remmus (The Mad One) said...

I wrote about my character, Val!

Ebony Law said...

Is anyone willing to have a fighting duel with me? Magic included?

Ebony Law said...

Anyone AT ALL?

Lauren Longbottom said...

My cousin works for Invisible Children. I have known of their cause for years now. What they do is amazing, but it goes unrecognized. I can only hope that people will take the time to watch this video, learn, and help take action, even if just sharing on Facebook. Thanks for posting Derek- your minions look up to you and listen to you, and by reaching out to them, you are helping spread the word. KONY 2012.

~Acacia Volt~ said...

The awkward moment when you go on your favourite authors blog to demand that he watch Kony 2012 and he’s already posted a blog update about it.

I’m kidding, of course. I’m thrilled and ecstatic that you know this Derek. I went to your page and clutched at my little heart.



Thank you, Derek, for saving those who can’t save themselves.

Thank you for spreading the word of the most dangerous and unknown man.


Out of curiosity, have you got the action pack? I think it’s an amazing idea. Jason Russell is an inspiration. But, to be honest, I was surprised that you weren’t on that list of influential people… :) You’re on my list of influential people, so, you’re all good there!

I can’t wait for you to come to Australia. I AM coming this time. I swear it. I’ll dress up as Clarabelle, too.

XXX ~ S'K

Zathract Mist said...

I'm back and the dog has been walked~~

Sparky Braginski said...

I don't know whether to squeal, or behave like a respectable Grand Ma-

*pauses*

Holy sh*t.

I don't do respectable...

Eve the ROCK said...

Yay! *hugs Mist*

Sparky Braginski said...

Zath!

Read Shadow's blog!

Eve the ROCK said...

Don't be so hard on yourself, Your Highness.

~Acacia Volt~ said...

Oh My… Sparky… Out of curiosity… Do you go to Asquith? The girl’s school with uniforms that look like asparaguses unless you get them two sizes to small?

Eve the ROCK said...

DAMN. I have to go. Drama. I'll be back! *kisses Mist's cheek and runs off*

Sparky Braginski said...

*glares at Eve*

You take that back right now.

I don't wear my robes.

You still get to see my incredibly sharp Makhaira.

In other words, don't push it, I'm sick.

~Acacia Volt~ said...

:P Bye Eve!

Sparky Braginski said...

Acacia!

...No...

Read Shadow's blog!

I think the link is...

www.bubblesforblood.blogspot.com

Lavender Hope said...

Back quickly to say:

Oh my gosh, Sparky!
I just realized! I read Shadow's blog! No wonder you're so excited right now!
:P Yes, I'm slow sometimes. Even if I was told the answer to a joke, I probably wouldn't know it till I thought of it myself. :P but that's me. Congrats Grand Mage!

~Acacia Volt~ said...

You… don’t? Seriously? Because… Hang on… Was that sarcasm? Computers need a sarcasm font.

Sparky Braginski said...

*beams at Hope*

...I really hope that doesn't become a title...

Sparky Braginski said...

No, I don't.

My schools colours are Navy blue, Maroon and Sky blue in summer.

Zathract Mist said...

*returns from Shadow's blog and bows mocking before Sparky*

Sparky Braginski said...

Gotta go!!!

Zathract Mist said...

I'm sorry, I mean Grand Mage Braginski.

~Acacia Volt~ said...

Damn. Okay. Because you said you went to an all girls school in Sydney, but okay.

I read the blog. Congratulations, Gladys! ;D

Okay! Gotta run before I get my head bitten off!

xx~ S'K

Sparky Braginski said...

*comes back and slaps Zath*

Don't do that.

Zathract Mist said...

Oh, OK, Grand Mage.

Bye bye!

*bows again and smirks*

Zathract Mist said...

Aw...

Lavender Hope said...

:P

i'll be here for another hour or so. :)

Don't worry, I won't call you Grand Mage too much. I like Sparky.

but Grand Mage Sparky?... naw, too much.

Zathract Mist said...

I'm still calling you Grand Mage though.

Zathract Mist said...

*looks around*

Now where's Eve?

*scans comments*

Oh, OK. Bye Evie!

Lavender Hope said...

*sigh*
just missed her...

never mind... Bye Sparky if you read this!

Lavender Hope said...

Is it just you and me now, Mist?

Lavender Hope said...

...oh..kay... maybe it's just me now...

Zathract Mist said...

*comes back from watching the news*

My god...Strathfield...Homebush...Paramatter...They're all underwater...

Lavender Hope said...

oh wow...

was one of those places where you lived? and it's still flooding there?

Zathract Mist said...

No no, my old place is long gone, I haven't the faintest idea what the hell happened to that place, but...MY GOD!

*yells out at Marrickville comes onto the screen*

Did...that just?

*yells loudly*

HOW THE HELL DID THIS HAPPEN!? It's flooding everywhere! Sparky, get down here!

Lavender Hope said...

um... so that means... when you're on a computer, the comments stay, Star?

Sparky Braginski said...

I'm here, chill.

Sparky Braginski said...

Oh, dinner time.

I'll vanish without saying bye.

Sorry.

Lavender Hope said...

oh my gosh. is all of Australia flooding then? or most of it?

*is worried for my friends*

Zathract Mist said...

Bye Star.

*shudders at the flooded cricket ground*

Zathract Mist said...

No, but the city in Sydney and the major parts around it are...

Zathract Mist said...

Oh wow, an underground carpark flooded...

Sparky Braginski said...

...Wait, the CITY!?

That's like, two minutes from here!!!

Sparky Braginski said...

I know that there's been flash flooding...

Zathract Mist said...

Oh god...Wait, where are you?!

Lavender Hope said...

oh my gosh.
*is still really worried*
I hope the flood waters will go down soon...
for everyone's sake.

Zathract Mist said...

I'm actually panicking now.

Sparky Braginski said...

Oh, BYE FOR REAL!!!!!!!!!

Zathract Mist said...

Despite that the water's dropped in some places...

Sparky Braginski said...

North Sydney.

BYE!!!

Zathract Mist said...

*hits forehead*

Bye Sparky.

Lavender Hope said...

WHY CAN'T I BE THERE WITH YOU! Instead, i'm safe at home worrying for the safety of my friends... Please be safe...

Lavender Hope said...

Bye Sparky! Be Safe!

Zathract Mist said...

*shrugs*

There wouldn't be much you would be able to from here anyway, Hope. If anything.

Lavender Hope said...

Well, at least I can be with you guys. I wish I could be there, where you are... I always hated floods, and this is why.

Zathract Mist said...

*looks around and growls*

Eve needs to get on. AND THE NEWS NEEDS TO REPORT WHAT'S GOING ON IN ADELAIDE!!

...Wait? The News? I have the INTERNET in front of me!

Lavender Hope said...

Yeah, I'm trying to find out what's happening now... *sigh* the nearest date i've gotten to is Feb. 2...

Lavender Hope said...

i've found something in March. going to look at that now...

Ebony Law said...

Back on...

Zathract Mist said...

*sighs with relief*

There isn't even a storm predicted in Adelaide. Good.

Lavender Hope said...

that's good to know Mist.

Hi Dylan.

Ebony Law said...

The calm before the storm...


-Rests head against tree stump and cries-

Zathract Mist said...

*smashes fist into tree*

There's still floods everywhere though!

Zathract Mist said...

And there is a major river that passes right through Adelaide.

Ebony Law said...

Comment, people!

Ebony Law said...

No, seriously, comment.

Lavender Hope said...

I'm still having trouble looking for floods in Australia on the internet...

but so far, I know that Wagga Wagga, New South Wales, and a place called Victoria have had floods. I'm sorry, but I wish I knew these places... I wish I could live there too!

Not in the flooding areas of course. Just somewhere in Australia...

Ebony Law said...

Lavender, Australia is the most peaceful country we have in the world, and eventually, typically enough, it will be engulfed by war, unless we act soon.


-Light explodes from hands and strips nearby trees of their leaves-



Kony makes me so mad.


-Yells out at vast hills, aims hands out and magnificently bright lights explode from my hands and bring trees crashing down-

Lavender Hope said...

why are you hurting the trees?
they didn't do anything to you!
'I am the Lorax and I speak for the trees!' quote from the Lorax by Dr. Suess :P

Lavender Hope said...

Sorry, not a time to be joking around...

Ebony Law said...

:|


-Aims hands at Lavender and light begins to grow in hands-


Do not make me mad. I need to take my anger out on something, so the trees will do. Would you like it to be you?

Zathract Mist said...

War will not break out here, I don't know what gives you that impression.

But I just saw Kony on the 7pm Project. ARGH!

Zathract Mist said...

*places hand on Dylan's shoulder*

I'm angry too but you're not going to gain anything more but hate from others if you hurt anyone here. The trees will do.

Ebony Law said...

Kony needs to die. April 20 will be the day I change forever. The day anger and fury will be my strength. The day I will do anything I want to help get rid of that DEVIL!

Zathract Mist said...

Hope, this is blogland, we can make a million more trees with a single thought.

Lavender Hope said...

*frowns then sighs*
and now I have to go to bed... It's getting late. Bye! Night guys!
*whispers*
Please be safe Mist... and everyone else who's in Australia now...

Zathract Mist said...

And he isn't a devil.

He is human. Which only makes it worse.

Ebony Law said...

-Starts glowing with purple aura-

Zathract Mist said...

*sighs darkly*

Bye Hope. Don't worry about us.

Ebony Law said...

-Zathract pulls his hand back quickly and exclaims-

Zathract Mist said...

*glares at Dylan*

I'm the guy with the purple aura.

Zathract Mist said...

And it's a dark, dark purple.

Zathract Mist said...

The hell? You can't control what I do.

And aura doesn't burn people, Ki does that.

Ebony Law said...

-Throws beam of light at Zathract and you stagger to back-



I DONT CARE!


-Grits teeth-



Kony. Will. Die.

Ebony Law said...

First!

Ebony Law said...

First!

Ebony Law said...

First!

Ebony Law said...

FIRST!

Ebony Law said...

FIRST!

Ebony Law said...

FIRST!

Ebony Law said...

There.

Zathract Mist said...

*socks Dylan hard in the jaw and fires off two fireballs*

WE-DO-NOT-DO-THAT! IT WASTES SPACE!

Forget it. I don't want to bother with you. Every time I try and become friends with you you always become stupid and idiotic again.
I don't like you at all Dylan. And that's not going to change now.

*turns, walks off and vanishes*

The Awesomely Awesome Ninja Llama who is just so Awesomely Awesome and she was so Awesomely Awesome that everyone DIED (aka FreakFan) said...

Hae Dylan!

*hugs*

I think I have to go straight away though

Ebony Law said...

I dedicate this page knowing that Kony will be taken down. He is a savage. He will DIE and he MUST DIE. The burning desire is in all of us. He will die, and he knows it. He knows that there is a burning desire in each and every person who knows about Kony. And he is scared. Very scared. So scared he is scared to believe his own army of children will attempt to kill him. I don't know how I know this, but I do. Somehow. He will be taken down. He is a man that has slaughtered so many people. He has more than 30,000 people in his army. We have more than one million. He can't win. Everyone, if you agree with me, type DIE, KONY DIE! Kony2012

You were writing your dedication.


I forgive you.

*cough*



REPLY!

Ebony Law said...

Hey, Freakfan.

Ebony Law said...

Sorry, Zathract, I went too far.

Zathract Mist said...

*storms back in*

Yes you damn well did!

*storms out and doesn't come back*

Ebony Law said...

And if you don't want to be my friend, fine. But know that there is a handful of people you can trust, and I'm trustworthy. If we start fighting among ourselves, it's all over.

The Awesomely Awesome Ninja Llama who is just so Awesomely Awesome and she was so Awesomely Awesome that everyone DIED (aka FreakFan) said...

Guys.

Come on.


Be friends.

Ebony Law said...

Zathract. Come back.
