Yeah, but Lav, no one in there right mind.... in there mind would actually vote for me
But I know people to host besides me
GUYS! Behave or I will eliminate you from this awards-y thing. I have the results in front of me, right now.
*backs off Nix very suddenly*
(meek voiced) Sorry, Nix! Sorry, sorry, sorry!
You should see what bananas look like in the Philippines! They're so short and fat!
*walks in*
I hear you were beating up a bone breaker which I owe a favour?
The reference?
Uh, Dusk I think told Val not to hit him again or something, and Skulduggery ran up behind him and said something like "What about me? Am I allowed to hit you?"
Stop Nix.
Stop now.
Right. Now.
*laughs*
alright, gonna have dinner
brb
Dinner was announced. Gotta go soon, but not yet. ;)
You got them already, L?!?!
You attacked m- Nix Sparky
*looks at Skulduggery* Hello. I just referenced you.
Bye Miss!
Bye Lav!
*looks at Star*
Hello, you have some ice cream in your hair
Seriously, it looks like vanilla
No, no, stop.
Please.
Please stop...
Hey, I said not yet. I'm still here!
Or maybe cookies and cream
Maybe if you say sorry to Nix, I'll go away...
Hehe, Skulduggery said bye to me. :P
*dunks head in lake and shakes it*
*stands up* Has it gone now?
Yes, but now you appear to have water in your hair
I did say sorry to Nix.
Several times.
Yes, I have the results in front of me. I just need to count up everything and make sure it's all right.
*is brushing hair*
*picks up random hairdryer and drys it* Is the water gone now?
Nix, chill the hell out. NOW. Before /I/ get involved.
Can you say it again?
Luce, can I please help organise?
So tomorrow at 7 PM my time? Which is... I think, an hour behind... Sydney? I think so.
I'm not even doing anything Luce!
Yep Lav. 8 for us, so I assume it's 7 for you
I'm sorry Nix...
I freaked, and the reason I freaked was kinda your fault, so.........
I am going to announce them tonight, instead. I won't be able to be here tomorrow. So it'll have to be tonight. Sorry!
Why the hell did you freak out?!
*checks world clock*
Yeah, an hour behind Sydney.
Oh... so no ceromony? All my plans... okay, never mind. Althought half the nominees aren't here
*blushes profusely*
Not important.
Can it be when I get back from dinner??? Please??? Cause I gotta go very soon. Msd.
I can get into contact with most of them.
If anyone can't get on in time they'll just find out as and when they can/
... That's stupid
No offense, but you go to all the trouble of having awards, then your just going to say the answers to a couple of people and nothing more?
back
TONIGHT?!?!
i dont need to wear a dress or anything, do i??
Shoot! Can't come back later. Gotta go. Bye!
bye Lav!
Bye Lav!
Bye, Lav!
Okay. *is looking up SP box set prices online*
Fours Lavender!!!
*contains anger this time*
*slighty*
Hear me, Nixion. If it is announced tomorrow, I won't be able to read it. Until Late Monday. And guess what happens Monday.
Monday is when I leave again.
So if you think I'm going to stand around, listening to you talk this bullsh*t, you got Another. Thing. Coming.
Not. Your. Blogland.
ahhhhhhh.........
*blinks*
Did I just say that?
gotta go again
brb
Fuck you
I try and organise something, but because you can't be there for the thing, we just call it off? And why can't you be there? Because you're abandoning us? You're leaving, not matter how many people need you here, because you need to? You think you're the only one who needs to? I need to leave, but I fucking don't, because I care about moree then myself. I try and look out for people, not that many relise, or even care. My lfe would be better if I left, so you know fucking what, I am. I'm fucking out.
Bye
Bye, Cain!
Yes. Yes, you did Sparky!
Wbd- counting up votes.
Fours Cain.
You did Sparky. *points*
A cermony like that was never gonna happen Nox. Sorry.
...
...Ah...
...
*face drains of colour*
Oops...
*Nix
But you're right . . . If Sparky leaves, it's her problem.
It is my problem...
*reddens heavily*
Aw sh*t...
So I agree with both of you. *nods*
*furrows brow at Ink and myself*
No, don't... Agree with me...
Sparky, don't feel guilty or anything. I think someone needed to say it. I couldn't hold a ceremony without you present, anyway. I'd simply refuse.
Nix, I'm sorry but I can't sort everything out. It was pretty clear that it'd never work out properly.
And, you know what, I thought my life would be so much easier without Blogland. But it's not. My life is even more difficult without you guys. Because, whenever I need someone to turn to, or I just need a shoulder to cry on, you're there. There's always one of you there. Every time I am at my weakest point and even when I hold a blade to my throat I can just think of you guys...The people that have changed my life for the better and those that I owe everything. I don't care how many times you say your life would be easier without Blogland, because it's not true. Blogland has changed everyone. Everyone has changed Blogland. You might come here and be so loud and bubbly at first and then you'll become someone new. Someone better than you were before. I came here scared of everything and everyone. I was frightened to be myself. I didn't know anything. But I've already changed for the better. I am learning not to care what others think. I am learning that being myself is the best thing I could ever be. I am learning that without you guys I'd not be here.
I agree completely with what Sparky has said, in all honesty. Someone needed to say it. I couldn't give out the results without Sparky, because without Sparky Blogland wouldn't be the same. You've said it yourself, Sparky has changed Blogland rather a lot...
*shrugs* Well we're never gonna get all of us one day at the same time doing a calm ceremony. And I didn't want to admit it before. But I am now.
...Stop, Lu...
I...
I gotta go.
I'll be back later.
*realises what she just said*
*shuts up, because she's an idiot and hasn't a clue about anything*
Maybe.
Bye.
... It's not the f**king ceromony I've given my life up for you people, not that any of you realise it. And the few things that make this place worth living are gone, so why should I stay. I gave up my life, but no one cares
Sparky, could you stay for a second. I need to talk to you
*nods at L* Yeah, it needed to be said, and Sparky said it.
I agree with most of the rest of that as well. Blogland does change people. But I think my life WOULD be easier without blogland . . . But blogland's too good to leave judt for the sake of easyness.
I can't.
Send an e-mail, or something, but I legit need to go IRL...
Fine, it doesn't matter. I'll email you
Star, that's not the point. There's nothign good in it for me anymore. There's nothing but more pain.
*shruggles*
Wrag, I want to side with Sparky, but I want to side with Nix, and I can't say I agree with one without turning my back on the other. *murders a banana*
I'm not against Sparky. I'm against this place now. And I'm leaving
Fours Sparky.
*looks at Nix* :/ :( D:
*sinking feeling*
Oh dammit.
Sorry.
*headbanana*
*stabs a tree*
Oh, what the hell?!
*frowns*
what the....?!
What the HELL?!
*looks at Mist*
any idea?
It hurts to leave, but it hurts to stay more. I've lost so damn much, but if I stay I'll lose it all...
ummm
*Stands. There. And. Seeths*
I'm crying. I've had enough. It's too much
i leave to go eat fish and chips and THIS *points at everyone* happens
Bye, Sparky.
Nix, pain is normal in life! I go through pain and suffering every day. In real life, I am alone and have no-one to turn to. Every time I come here everything seems to just...Disappear. It'll disappear only if you let it. Yes, you might need to take a break. Yes, you might need some help along the way. But, no. I am not letting you think that there's nothing good in life. Because there is! There's so much good, in this life. Whether you choose to believe it, or not! Even I, the pessimistic bitch, found good in life. I found you guys. I found my reason for living. And I am going to prove to the world that no matter how much shit it throws at me, I will get back up and I will fucking fight until the end. No matter how long it takes, I will get through everything.
And I want you guys to be with me when I do that. You'll always be in my heart. Always.
So don't throw away what you have. Don't let life get the better of you, because you're amazing and you're a gift to this world! Your writing is inspirational and it's part of you! It's you showing the world who you are! The fact that I know that you know who I am make me feel all warm and tingly inside, because I feel special. I feel like I am actually someone, for once...
No...
Nix, please...
*headpurplebanana* I knew you weren't against each other. Just, agreeing with one of you is going against what the other says.
Dammit. I helped drive Nix away.
*has gone white*
Hi Zath. WB Cain.
Nix. Come back. Maybe not right this second, but tomorrow. Do that and I'll grant you one wish. Within reason.
No, you didn't Star
You guys were the reason I stayed longer then I did. Most of you are here right now, so it seems appropriate. The biggest pain of my life is that I'm no longer a part of the real world, my family mostly. My grandmother died last week, which was really the point where everything changed. Don't think any of you were responsible, you were what kept me here for the time I did. But I no longer think of this place with joy, just remember it. Life is pain. But if I don't leave, the pain's just going to stay.
*stares*
this is just getting odd now
*is shaking with anger in real life*
...Someone tell me when Nixion Strange returns.
If he returns.
Ever.
*leaves*
well, not odd
maybe a bit depressing
Every time someone brings something up about leaving, I find myself in tears. I find myself crying, because those that I actually thought I had in my life just disappear...And I can't do anything about it.
It proves that I am worthless.
Conflict is all over this world and sometimes the only way to win is to fight it back. Show the world that you're strong. Show the world that you don't give a fuck anymore. Because you have people that care about you, you're amazing and you shouldn't let things that're happening around you change that!
If you must leave then, please, just don't forget how much you actually mean to me. You don't even have to remember who I am. Most people don't. But do remember that you mean the world to someone. Even if that someone is a no-one.
Yes, I'm being selfish. I gave my life up, and I'm being selfish by going. But I'd like to think I'm not completly selfish, which is why I'll be back. Later. At the moment it's too much for me. It'll only be a few weeks, it'll go by like no time. But I'm not going to try and hang on to what I had.
*glares at Nix* L just said the opposite of that. You said "irl pain = no blogland". L said "irl pain = more blogland". Logic and reason is telling me she"s right.
Really bad time to come in, huh...?
...
Mist, if you could stay for a ferw minutes, it would mean the world to me
I am right.
For once.
Blogland = less physical and mental pain. Blogland = me less likely to go into hospital again, because I have something to fight for.
I don't have anything to fight for in this place
Star, I'm not one of you anymore. I don't enjoy this place. I'm not a person who smiles when I think of my friends here. I'm someone who knows that by being here, I gave up a part of my life I had before
...
Alright, Nix...I'm here...
I don't feel like I should be here, but I also feel as though I deserve whatever I get now.
...Again, Sorry...
I said, although none of may may have read the full thing, I'll be back. It's not perminante. A few weeks maybe.
So, Nix, you're saying we're not worth it?
We're not worth fighting for?
All I fight for in life is being here with you guys. Being here FOR you guys.
I don't mean anything to anyone, I know. But I do know that everyone else here is amazing and I adore them and they are worth the fight. They are worth the battle.
ok, this is just getting more depressing and a tiny bit uplifting
i think
Okay. Be back. But hurry up, coz I won't just be missing you, I'll be missing Zath. And I will miss both of you. But I won't leave till you come back, because SOMEBODY needs to stay here. You get used to which people do depression and leaving and which don't. When someone like Nix breaks down and leaves, it just shows you that no one is immune. When Sparky went all depressing, it put us all in shock. Now she's in my can-go-depressing catagory. Nobody is continously happy and unleaving. Even Eve can get upset, which always surprises me. But all the people who haven't left need to hang in there and stay cheerful when something like this happens, or blogkand goes kaput. So I don't know where all that sidetrackibg came from, or what my point was originally, but we all need to be cheerful now, so as not to make EVERYONE in blogland unhappy. Sadness is infectious. Don't let it spread.
Thank you Star, that's reaally what I'm trying to say
A small break
Sorry about the competition, that's just going t freeze for know. I need a while to clear my head, to see what's going on
*winces*
Oh yeah...
I don't have that problem anymore, if you were concerned...
Though, it may not be the best time to mention it...
alright
brb
You're all acting as if I'm still going forever
I changed my mind. It's just a break.
...Okay.
*blinks at Nix* Thanks, but WTL? I'm confuzzledzed. I don't see how it ties -
*gets it* OHHHH.
*gives Nix a cheerful you-utter-moron-(but-I-don't-mean-it-in-a-mean-way) look* You dolt. By leaving, you're doing the opposite. Get your head straight. :) *hugs*
*is strangely happy now*
I might not be here until tonight. Then after that, I don't know.
I'm fed up, now.
I know I am probably the most fickle person there is, but I am fed up.
Yes, I know that every time I come to Blogland everything seems to get better, but right now I can't cope being in Blogland when everyone else is being so fucking depressing. It's making me a little worse and I know that I can sometimes get a little over the top with depression...
I am fed up of all of this. I can't cope knowing that everyone is depressed. When I am not here, I worry about you. But I do know that you tend to be less depressed. I am definitely not going to be here in two weeks. I might be able to pop in, but that's about it.
Whatever...Giving in just seems to appeal to me even more, nowadays.
Bye, everyone. I'll be back for the BA, tonight.
pretty much. I was going to leave, but I can't just leave this part of my life
Three weeks I reackon. Then you'll see me back, maybe not every day, but I'll be back
...
Well, at least it's only a break, right?
*tries for a smile*
Sorry I was so quiet. I just didn't know what to say...
Star, he's not leaving because of whats HERE, he's leaving because of what is going on THERE.
Hello...
Oh dear.
*hugs* Have a nice trip to irl-land. *hands Nix a train ticket* Don't chuck it away, it's a return.
*reads L's comment*
...
*sighs*
Oh, I'm leaving because of both. I'm just going to get away for a bit
Hi Cal and Lav! *is cheerful now*
I know, I'm weird.
Hi Cal.
I'll be going now
I'll be back in a few weeks. Someone email me the results of the awards, although I might not see them for a while
Bye everyone! You guys are the best!
You do that Nix. We will be waiting your return.
*manages a smile this time*
Meh. I feel bad about L. I think I'm just impressed with myself for understanding the situation. I know, I'm completelt selfish, don't mind me. :)*cheerfully tortures banana to death*
Bye NIIIIIIIIXXXXX!!!!
*waves arms over head*
*waves goodbye and bananas as Nix's train chuggs away* FFFFOOOUUURRRSSS!!!
...
Bye Nix...
...
*looks at the bananas I was just waving in the air*
*stamps on them*
*laughs at getting first and knows who to ded to*
Hey people - should I smash up the Banana Statue?
*leaves*
Bye Nix...
*sits on rock and looks at my theme park, that's started to light up*
*holds up glass of coke, pretends to clink it against someone else's and takes a sip*
*rests arms on my knees and looks down*
Cheers.
Brb, lunch.
...Hello...?
Hi there.
Heya Cal...
How are you feeling, Sparky? I just went back and read all the stuff and...
Well, ouchies for everyone. That wasn't a very pleasant page.
Are you alright?
BACK! *slashes a banana to pieces*
WB Star.
*shrugs*
Been better.
WB Inky.
Let's play rounders! *constructs mindless robots to make up the rest of the team*
Ah. *has just remembered it's sorta an England-only sport*
Okay then, somebody think of a better one!
back
took too long
I dedicate this page to the most insane person in Blogland, Nixion Strange! He's funny and insane and one of my really great friends here on the blog. He may be leaving for now, but he'll come back. My heart goes out to him in the real life, and hopes that he will be happy.
I also dedicate this page to Star and L. The two most mood lifting people on the blog. They are always there for everyone and no matter how hard it gets, they'll never give up. *is ignoring the fact L's only coming back tonight and then leaving for who knows how long* NO MATTER WHAT!!!
Then I dedicate this page to Mist and Sparky. Even though they left before, they always come back. Sparky's one of my BEST FRIENDS HERE and Mist has always been my great friend. Even though he leaves a lot, whether it be for personal reasons or family business, he always comes back. Whenever anyone leaves, I will always be thinking about them and hoping they are happy and fine.
To Zaf, Dark, and Em, you guys are about the funniest minions on here! Getting into who knows what and making me laugh every time I read your comments! Ecpesially when it's about taking over Ireland!
To Eve. Star and L aren't the only ones who can lift moods. Just by being here, your bubbly comments always seem to lift my spirits. :)
And last but NOT in the most, LEAST, Flame Phoenix! I consider him a good friend and he writes really good poems! And I think he might be one of the most taken for granted.
Finally, as this dedication has gotten really long and has taken me about 50 minutes to type up(hey, I'm on an iPod. It's kinda hard to type something this long with only two fingers and no spelling mistakes.), I dedicate this page to Derek and not leaving. If it hadnt been for Derek, this blog would never have existed. Skulduggery Pleasant would never have existed. I thank him for giving us this blog and the amazing people who come here. I've heard before that some people come here to get away from their real lives, the alternative of committing suicide. The people here have changed, and saved, those lives just by being here and making those that come feel welcome. Who knows when someone's going to need you? Everyone here has changed Blogland in a big way. If you stay, who knows how much more you can do to help?
*hugs Lavender* :D
That is ONE AWESOMESAUCE DED.
Seriously.
Phew, that was long, but worth it. :)
I added Derek an the not leaving thing at the last minute. The idea for that just popped into my head after I dedicated to Flame. So thats why he wasn't technically last.
Oh Lav, that is absolutely brilliant!
*grins as I get hugged*
Thanks Star. :)
Thanks Cal!
I just finished the ded in time, cause now I gotta go. Bye guys!
And my last comment to you is... NEVER GIVE UP!!!
I know it's cheesy, but still.
Bye!!!
Bye!
*Bye Lav!
Fours Lavender!
What sports can you play, Cal?
As in, ones you PLAY???
Rounders is my best coz I understand all the rules completely, but only us Englandians play it, I think.
bye Lav!
great ded
sorry, bit distant
I'm - er - not a sport person, aha.
I can play tennis, I guess and I'm alright at softball. But nothing else...
S'okay, Cain.
What sports can you play?
i play netball
Softball? Blergh. Never heard of it. Tennis? I am pretty awful at it but I reckon I know the rules. Can you play tennis, Cain? Because if so . . . *constructs a tennis court, an avatar and four raquets, which I don't think I can spell*
I can play that. *looks at Cal* Can you play netball?
ahhh
tennis isnt my strong point
Nope! But I'll give it a go, aha.
Okay. Tennis or netball, people?
netball
Don't care!:)
Okayzo. Netball it is.
*creates netball court* What position do people want to play in, and what are the colours of the teams?
Red team VS blue team?
Right.
You can appoint me the position seeing that I have no idea what I'm doing.
Blue?
my team shall be called Emeralds and we wear green!
i'll play GD
ok then, red VS blue
Can I be blue team toooo?
Anddd . . . Goal defense please. *puts on blue goal defense bib*

Someone e-mail me or Skype me when there are enough people here!
Here for Blogland Awards.
Hi? I'm new to blogging, am I doing this right?
You are if you want to be taking to people.
Mostly people who are utterly insane, mind you.
How are you, Avelin?
Can I call you Ave?
hi Avelin!
i know, Hustle is epic!
yay!! awards time!!
Yup sure Sparky!
It's okay, sometimes I question my sanity as well :D
Sweet.
Hello Ave, I'm Sparky.
How are you?
I'm fine. How are you?
I'll stay until we have enough people for the BA. Then announce them one by one. I have a couple I am saving 'til last, though.
Hello, Ave! I'm Luciana. Or Lucy. Or Luce. Or Lu. Or L. Or..*shuts up*
It's nice to meet you!
yeah, might as well introduce myself...
hello Ave, my name is Miss Cain
you can call me Miss, Missy or Cain for short
nice to meet you!
What's BA?
It's nice to meet you too!
Pretty good.
I've had a mildly destructive day, but other than that, everything's peachy.
wbd
watching Hustle
BA is the Blogland Awards
Can I can you Ave as well?
I'm Zathract. You can call me that, or Mist, or Zath and Sparky has recently taken to calling me Zathy. You could call me some other thing as well, of you liked, but, y'know.
I've forgotten where I was going with this.
Good to meet you, Ave.
Oh, I see. Cool.
Blogland Awards.
I can't be bothered to explain it, again.
I'll be right back! I'm going to get some food.
