Every year, my family tell me they don't know WHAT they're going to get me, and every year we have a great big laugh about it. But every year I think ah, THIS is the year. This is the year when they DO know what to get me, but they're all PRETENDING they don't. They're all conspiring with each other, pooling their money and resources, going that extra mile to get me the thing that will make me happy, whatever it may be. It's all a surprise, I think to myself. It's all a wonderful surprise and on Christmas Day when I've handed them their really really expensive gifts and I'm standing to one side while they ooh and ahh and laugh and hug, they're suddenly going to turn around and say Derek, surprise! We have what you've always wanted!
And then they show me a parcel beneath the tree and I fall to my knees, and with trembling hands I slowly tear the paper and lo... the most perfect present ever in the history of the world. And I am happy.
This year my mother got me a dart board.
She got me a dart board because, obviously, she knows how much I secretly love darts. She has cleverly read between the lines during each of our many conversations throughout the year- conversations in which darts have not been mentioned one single time- and she figured out that what I really wanted for Christmas, the thing that will finally make my life complete, is a great big dart board.
Mother, I think it is safe to say you have excelled yourself this year. Well done.
My brother and sisters, meanwhile, all got together and arranged an aircraft simulation lesson- where you sit in a cockpit thingy and take off and land a plane without actually, you know, being IN a plane. Well, they ALMOST did that. What they ACTUALLY did was hand me a piece of paper with all this written down. They got me a SUGGESTION for Christmas.
Now, to you, this mightn't sound that bad. You might be thinking hey, they didn't know if Derek would be interested in this, so they suggested it, and if he seemed agreeable, they'd go off and book it. And this, dear Minion, would a reasonable thing for you to think.
Unless you remember a few years ago where my sisters told me that what they were going to do for me that Christmas was renovate my bathroom. Oh wow, said I. A bathroom renovation, just what I've always wanted. A bathroom renovation as done by two pregnant women with no prior history of bathroom renovations, nor indeed any relevant knowledge of said undertaking. I just couldn't get any luckier.
And if you remember that, you may also remember that they never actually got around to doing it.
And you may also remember that last year, in some feeble attempt to make up for it, they got me a bath mat and towel. For Christmas. Between the two of them.
It wasn't all terrible disappointment and quiet tears when no one was looking, because today was also the day of Doctor Who and The Snowmen!
I'm not entirely sure who the villain was or what the logic was, and I thought Richard E Grant could have been used SO much better, but it was fast and funny and Matt Smith is great and Jenna Louise Coleman is... is...
Jenna Louise Coleman is just so PRETTY.
I know, I know, I have a history with Amy Pond. We were close. We were even in love, for a while. But times change. People change. They move on. I've moved on. I love Amy, I do, and she will always have a special place in my heart...
But Jenna Louise Coleman is just so PRETTY.
I... I think I love Jenna Louise Coleman. I think THAT is what I got for Christmas.
God (or whatever random deity you might acknowledge) bless us, every one.

Um... Okay. I'm just going to come out and say it.

NO!
NONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
Why? Why has this idea come into your head?
It's okay, I'm playing Professor Layton.....I'm totally not cheating though, TOTALLY NOT!
MARA, DO NOT MAKE ME TRACK YOU DOWN AND SLAP YOU FOR SUCH A STUPID QUESTION. I HAVE ADOPTED YOU AS A BLOGSISTER AND I DO NOT LOSE BLOGSISTERS, THAT IS A RULE
I WILL KILL YOU IF YOU LEAVE BLOGLAND FOREVER, I LOVE YOU TOO MUCH. YOU'RE LIKE A SISTER TO ME! *hugs*
And this is slow
Slow freaking internet.............
MWAH HA HA, IENI, I'M SIX MONTHS OLDER THAN YOU! THAT MAKES ME REALLY MATURE AND WISE! *bangs head against tree because of course if I do that gold coins will drop out of the sky*
Basically, Mara, what Clover is trying to say is that you really have no option, because once you've met us, you're not going to get rid of us.
AND PLEASE DON'T GO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO:(
I think I'm the youngest
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! MARA! DON'T LEAVE!
You're, like, a proper Bloglandian figure in Blogland. You're my blogfriend and you can't leaveeeeeeeeee. No, Mara, no.
WOAH WOAH WOAH! BACK UP THE COMMENT TRAIN, Who's leave?
WHAT I AM TRYING TO SAY IS SHE CAN'T LEAVE PROPERLY OR I WILL KILL HER BECAUSE I LOVE HER LIKE FAMILY FAR TOO MUCH, SHUSH IENI I AM NOT THAT NICE OK
And, Clover that blogpost was actually so amazing. Look, it made me smile.
*smiles*
Haha, Star, no. It doesn't take much to be maturer and wiser than me, so don't think you're mature or wise, just because of me XD
Skye! *ninjaeroplanehugs* How's you?
Comment train? Omg XD That's just...omg XD
See? Blogland is good for me. I'm all smiley now:)
Mara, no, you're staying and that's it, I said it and yes people generally ignore what I say, BUT PLEASE PLEASE!
Haha I'm good, yourself? :3
Hi, cant stay 4 long, this will be my only comment then i'll vanish again.

WAIT WHAT? MARA YOU CANT LEAVE AND IF YOU TRY TO WE WILL ALL HUNT YOU DOWN AND MAKE YOU COME BACK ON.
I g2g go now, but.
Mara, don't leave:(
Byebye *waves*
Guys... I just...
Let's be brutally honest here.
All I've ever done since I came here was complain. About my life, my friends, everything. I probably made half if my Blogfriends worry about me. Which I absolutely hate doing.
I am ugly, weak and fat. Guys, I know that. And I'm fine with that because I've been told that almost everyday. Everyday, I basically beat myself up mentally because I don't deserve anything good in life. I don't deserve to be here.
So I'm really sorry for making you all worry about me right now. But I don't know what to do with myself anymore.
No Mara dont say that! NOOOOOO! I ENJOY HAVING CONVERSATIONS WITH YOU ! I REALLY DONT CARE WHAT THEY ARE ABOUT NOOOOOOO!
*reaction in 3...2...* WAIT A SECOND
MARA, NOOOOO YOU CAN'T LEAVE, YES I JUST MET YOU, YES THIS IS CRAZY, BUT HERES MY- No I'm not doing
ON A SERIOUS NOTE
NO YOU CANNOT LEAVE, SO MANY BLOGGERS KNOW YOU, YOU CANT LEAVE NOT NOW NOT EVER!!!!
I'm glad I got it off mah chest
Mara, stop beating urself up. And DONT LEAVE!!!!!!!!!
AND YOU DO DESERVE TO BE HERE .
MARA! YOU HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING WRONG! SERIOUSLY!
BOOOOOOOP
Once a blogfriend always a blogfriend.
ROBIN! HELP US CONVINCE MARA TO STAY!
Mara:

This thing Fabi was in... Might cheer u up???? I hope????
Mel, I don't! Why can't you guys just realise that?! There are so many childeen who die everyday. Younger than me. If I don't want to live, why should I keep living and watching them die?!
*throws Skittles at Mara*
No. You should hear me. I'm so bad when it comes to complaining about life! :P
If you were complaining too much, you'd end up with me gobbing at you. Always the case.
But, even I think you're amazing. So, shush. I don't like just anyone, y'know? I only talk to people who are good people. I think you're perfect, Mara. I don't care what you think about yourself, not right now, because you're my little sister and you're perfect to me. I don't want to lose anyone else this year, I've lost too many people as it is. *hugs* You're beautiful and so, so funny. You always make me smile, please don't leave <3
I'll sing P!nk to you if I have to! And I cannot sing! :P
...One time my mom and I came home from visiting relatives for the weekend and we arrived to our one bathroom looking completely shiny and different and we couldn't figure out who did it then my dad came home and was like "Oh, yeah, I also fixed up the bathroom by the way. You might not notice." then my mom was like "Honey, there's an entirely different SINK in there, WHERE DID YOU EVEN FIND IT?"
.....whooooops, wrong windowwwwwww...
...maybeeee....
*casually clicks the publish button*
meeerrryyy cHRISTMAASSSS
Maralieeee! Why you leave? I love you :(
... Sorry. I just let my temper get the best of me.
MARA, THINK OF EM! SHE WOULD BE SO SAD IF YOU LEFT!!!
Forget about Em, what about me? D:
ROBIN! *hugs* Hello! :D
Yo Luciana *hugs* You okay, my dear?
Emerald barely knows me.
See? This is why I hate doing this. You're all trying to convince me to stay.
Because we love you Maralie! I don't understand why you're going in the first place!
She barely knows you, and she likes you anyway!!!
Mara I swear to god you gave me and probably everyone else a heartattack and a half just now for even asking us such a question . WHY?!? Why do you think such thoughts ?
Mara, I wouldn't do this for just anyone.
To be competely honest, there are some people that could ask that question to me and I would probably ignore it. But you? You're my little sister. You're my beautiful, perfect little sister who I wish I could be more like. You're amazing, Mara. I don't know about anyone else, but if you never came back to Blogland... I don't think I could spend as much time here purely because it'd be painful knowing you'd never come back. Knowing my sister would never come back...
Mara, you're awesome. You don't have to leave.
Why do you like me? I'm not funny. I'm not sweet. I'm not nice. I'm not pretty, kind, caring... Why do you even care about me?
Mara I will hunt you down if I have to! I KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE!
We-well I KNOW the country you live in, I don't know the rest, I'ma go and take a bath to calm myself
Mara its like this -
All minions and bloglanders are like a big family (some closer than others like you and Luci) and you asking us that is like someone telling us one of the family is gonna die and thats a bad bad thought...
Why? Because I clearly see something you don't. Clearly, we see what is true. What is real.
You're perfect to me, Mara. You'll believe it one day, if I get my way. :)
Sings One Direction songs to try to cheer Mara up.
You don't understand... No-one ever understands...
Mara, Seriously. Everyone here loves you!
You don't have a reason to leave
Okay, hmmmm
"I won't let these little things slip"......Come on, I don't know it
See? Jubi is even listening to the 1D music to make you feel better!
If people are your friends, you don't care about their faults, you love them anyway. I'm always so cross with myself when I don't like somebody, because I know that whatever it is about them I don't like, I would happily overlook if they were my friend, and I'm cross because sometimes the only difference between them and my friends is the circumstances I know them in . . .
And Mara? Everybody deserves to be cared about. Everybody. We all matter. "And I sensed that not only the grand movements of the cosmos, but everything that had happened in my life, was part of that song. Even the hurts that seemed most senseless, the mistakes I would have done anything to erase - nothing could make those things good, but good could still come out of them all the same, and in the end the oratorio would be no less beautiful for it.
I realised then that even though I was a tiny speck in an infinite cosmos, a blip on the timeline of eternity, I was not without purpose. And as long as I had a part in the music of the spheres, even if it was only a single grace note, I was not worthless. Nor was I alone."
Ultraviolet, R J Anderson.
I have so many god damn problems guys. So, so many. I was depressed last year. You are the only ones who know about that.
I love you all so so so much. You're all my family. But I can't do this anymore. I love you all though. Don't ever think I don't :')
Going now! Buh-bye!!!!
So why are you going then? Please stay :D
Mara, we all care.
Bye, Robin! :)
Mara, e-mail. Now.
MARALIE LILY CHARM! STOP SAYING THINGS LIKE THAT
Alight look Mara
I felt like nothing good could ever happen to me, I don't feel loved, I don't feel like I belong anywhere, Playing music only makes me happy, I make up shit fan fics for nobody, I don't have a best friend anymore
And you think nobody understands
I feel like I just wanna let it end, But then think bout it, what pain will you leave behind if you let the pain you feel go. Just think about it will yah. Now if you exuse me, I need a shower, I'm sweating like hell
*whispers* guys I think we wont be able to convince her...we need a higher power and Im not talking about god ... but you can pray if anyone thinks it will help...?
Anyone remember this?
This world is full of lies…
The truth may be difficult to uncover, but it’s never gone.
The truth is a bright light, where the clouds are the lies. Clouds hide the light when you need it the most. Just like lies masking the truth. However, one day the light will shine through – just like you’ll see the truth.
You are beautiful, because you are you.
This world truly is full of lies. But, the lies we tell each-other are nothing compared to the lies we tell ourselves. If someone says to you ‘you’re ugly’, you’ll know that the lie you’ve just been told is nothing compared to what you tell yourself. You’re beautiful. Of course you’re beautiful, you’re a human and I cannot imagine a world without you. I love you all. Every single person that reads this – and every single person that doesn’t – should know that they’re amazing.
Make it your task every day to tell one person their worth – even if it’s just “I’m glad you’re alive,”
By making someone smile, you could be saving their life. Have you ever thought about it like that? Have you ever thought of yourself as a hero? Because you could be a hero. You can be a hero. You can do anything if you put your mind to it.
Don’t put yourself down and give in before you’ve even tried, don’t waste your talent, don’t live in the past or the future, hope for something more, yeah, but make an effort to change your future for the better! They say that there’s always someone better and someone worse, but why can’t we all be equal? Why can’t we all make a difference!? Why can’t we all know that we’re beautiful? Why can’t we all know how perfect we all are!?
Why?
(cont.)
Go on… Ask yourself why.
Why.
Why haven’t you changed!?
Why aren’t you doing what you want to do?
Why are you holding yourself back?
Why can’t you believe that you’re beautiful?
I’ll tell you why, shall I?
It’s because society, it’s because we, believe(s) that there is something called perfection. It’s because we’re humans. And what do humans do? They want. They desire. We want and we desire. We want more. We need more. Or, at least, that’s what we tell ourselves…
If I could have one wish…It wouldn’t be anything for me. It wouldn’t be for world peace. It wouldn’t be for everyone’s safety. It wouldn’t be for no more starvation or no more natural disasters. Nor would it be for everyone to stop committing crimes.
It’d be for everyone to be able to smile. It’d be for everyone to be happy. Even if it was only for a moment…Everybody deserves happiness. Everyone deserves to smile and to be happy.
Happiness is a choice. Are you going to sit by and allow yourself to be anything but happy for the rest of your life? Or are you going to allow yourself to be happy and regret less?
I know what I’m going to do. I’m going to be happy as much as I can. I know it’d be rather ridiculous for me to say I don’t believe in being depressed, because I am a lot of the time…But, I do believe in being happy. And I do believe in living your life to the full – so you should do that!
Please, do yourself a favour and…smile. Smile once in a while!
Mara, please???
I...
GTG, will be back ASAP, Fabi and I are in a play, not even supposed to be here...
MARA, DON'T YOU DARE LEAVE WHILE WE'RE GONE!!!!!
Mara,please, please, PLEASE just listen to us!
Im about to tweet derek. Do you really want him to know that one of his beloved long time minions is going to dissapear forever? Im about to do it...Im about to involve master derek...
Mel, wait.
I sent her a really long e-mail.
A very long e-mail that includes things that make me cry on it...
Ok I shall wait... and hope , btw this is what I meant by the higher power...
Luci, I almost started crying too.
I'm emailing you back...
Mel - I doubt he'd care... Why would he care about me? -_-
Haha tht's what I thought Mel
MARA!!!
STOP
IT
NOW
PLEEASSEE
Because Mara if he doesnt care then I shall make him and if he does which he will hopefully he can convince you...
So am I all good to go ahead with operation a higher power?
YES DO IT MEL!
Derek cares about all of his Minions. All of us. And I care about you even more. I mean, would we be spending our time trying to convince you to stay now if we didn't care, Mara? I sure wouldn't. If I didn't care, I'd probably be sat in my room texting some guy...
Luci do you think I should?
GET DEREK!!!!
MARA, Don't go!!!!!!!!!!!
Mara, please!!!!
Ok I shall tweet him...
... *sighs* Go ahead, Mel. I don't even care anymore. Hell, even Kessie doesn't answer my emails anymore. I know it's because she's probably busy, but I miss her...
No, I don't think you should.
I think we should listen to Mara and be as understanding as we can be. :)
ugh!
KESSIE GET ON!!
NNOOOWWW!!!!!
Ok I wont :D
Luci, did you get my email?
From a comment in the twitter post:
Name: Kestrel LeStarre
Age: 17
Magic: Adept-Sigilist
Recent History: She was China's student until Death Bringer. She was doing something in the UK for China when Eliza Scorn attacked, so she wasn't there. When she got back, it was just a huge explosion site, and she didn't know anything about what happened until she found Skulduggery's hat. She went to America in order to gather enough power to fight him, and because of her friendship with Zafira Kerias, the Grand Mage, she became Administrator.
Best Friend: MARALIE CHARM
THANKYOU FABI! I WAS LOOKING FOR THAT!
Please don't make me cry...
You're making us cry. PLEASE don't leave, Mara!!!!
*hugs Mara*
Please don't leave...
(gtg, my character has SO MUCH 2 do onstage...)
DON'T LEAVE!!!!!!!!
WE LOVE YOU, MARA!!!!!
Before I quote Drak Flame, by Alyson Noel, I'd just like to say that Roman has utterly destroyed Ever's life time and time again, made it a living misery. And this 'antidote' they refer to the the anitdote to a spell Roman put on Ever and her boyfriend, meaning that if they exchange any DNA, they'll die. Imagine that happening to Bella and Edward, and you'll get where I'm coming from. Now, BEGIN.
"You view it all as one big game - as though life is the board and you're the piece that always needs to stay three steps ahead of all the others. You never let your guard down, never allow yourself to get close to anyone - and you have no idea how to love or be loved, since love was never given to you. I mean, sure you could've made different choices, and there's no doubt you should've, but still it's kinda of hard to offer what you've never had, what you've never experienced youself, and I forgive you for that."
"What is this?" He glares at me. "Amateur hour? You gonna send me a bill for your ridiculous psychobabblings? Is that it?"
"No," I say, my voice quiet, my gaze fixed on his. "I'm just trying to tell you that it's over. I refuse to fight you anymore. I choose to love you and accept you insteda. Whether you like it or not."
"Show me," he says, back to patting the bed again. "Why don't you just crawl on here and show me the love, Ever?"
"It's not that kind of love. It's the real kind. The unconditional kind. The nojudgemental kind. Not the physical kind. I love you as a fellow soul who inhabits this earth. I love you as a fellow immortal. I love you because I'm tired of hating you, and refuse to do so any longer. I love you because I finally understand what made you the way you are. And if I could change it, I would. But I can't - so I choose to love you instead. And my hope is that my acceptance of you will spur you on to do something goo too, but if not-" I shrug. "At least I can say I tried."
TBC
"Bloody hell," he mumbles, rolling his eyes as though my words do nothing but pain him. "Somebody's been drinking the hippie juice!" Ge shakes his head and laughs, settling down and looking at me when he says, "Okay, Ever, you love me and forgive me. Bravo. Well done. But here's the news flash - you still don't get the antidote, okay> You still love me? Or do you go back to hating me again? Just how deep is your love, Ever - to quote a song from the seventies that I'm sure you've never heard of." He drops his hands onto his lap, leaving them open, relaxed. "I feel sorry for your generation. All that crap music you listen to. You should hear the band Haven went to see - The Mighty Hooligans? What kind of a piss-poor name is that?"
I just shrug. I know an avoidance tactic when I see one, but no matter how hard he tries, I refuse to be swayed off course like he wants. "Your choice," I say. "I'm not here to ask you for anything."
"Then what are you here for? What's the point of this little visit of yours? According to you, you're not looking for the antidote, you're not looking for a good shaggin' even though it's bloody obvious you're desperately in need of one. You just waltz on in here and disrupt my privacy so you could tell me you love me? Really, Ever? Because I'm sorry to say it, but I find that all a bit hard to digest.
"Of course you do," I say, completely unfazed. This is pretty much exactly what I expected, it's all moving along just as I planned. "But that's only because you've never experienced that before. Six hundred years and you've never known a moment of real and true love. It's sad. Tragic really. But it's hardly your fau;t. So, for the record, this is what it feels like, Roman. This is what it looks like. I just want you to know that, despite all you've done, I forgive you. And because I forgive you, because I release you, you can't get to me or hurt me anymore. and if you never give me the antidote - well, damen and I will work around it, because that's what soul mates do. That's what true love is. It cannot be broken, it cannot be chipped away, it's eternal, everlasting, and it can weather any storm. So if you're determined to continue like this, I just want you to know you'll get no resistance from me. I'm done with all that. I've got a life to live - how about you?"
Bye 4 now, but I expect to see u soon, Mara!!!!
[hugs]
Bye Fabi *hugs*
Yeah I tweeted him...
Sorry I took so long to reply, beautiful! I was stuffing my face with ice cream because my happiness is more important than people's opinions of me!:P
SO MANY TYPOS.
*Damen
*He
*good
*instead
*okay
We love you, Mara. *points upwards*
Whatever you do and however you are, we can still love you. Do you know how much misery Roman put ever through? And she loves him. You've done nothing to hurt us. Loving you is much easier. :)
*Ever
Bbs. :( SORRY. SORRY SO MUCH.
Derek...
~slaps a hand down on his shoulder~
I'm afraid you'll have to be glad that at least your family tries... feebly... And your minions would probably do much better... but, you know....
~cough cough~
SO YES!
~strikes fist in the air~
I HAVE NOW... ER... ENCOURAGED YOU... ish.
Well, my mom got me what she calls a "flapper-girl" hat.. So, you know... Don't feel too bad :P
You know Derek, you, most wonderful of men, I am slightly offended. Of course you love the pretty ones. But you write about a /skeleton/, for God's sake. A skeleton, no matter how intricately beautiful his suit and how fancy his hat may be, cannot be described as pretty. He may only be described as beautiful, o Derek darling.
Why am I offended, you may ask?
Because I - forever and ever, have been absolutely obsessed with you. And you fall in love with the pretty one. Don't forget Amy, Derek dear. But I can't stay mad at you for long, now can I, dear? No, the truth be-eth, I can't. You're just too goddamn funny.
You know, I hardly ever watch Doctor Who. I have to get a box set. You know what, actually? What would have been an extremely suitable present for you this year?
A Doctor Who box set, of all series up 'till now. Yes, I am amazing, I know. I'll just bow now. *Bows*. Well, you probably already have that, don't you, Derek? Dammit. The man who created the most iconic skeleton of all time - of course - would already have that. I thought I was clever. Again, dammit. I enjoy using damn, don't you?
What kind of music do you like, Derek? I'm a huge fan of the - admittedly amazing - Florence Welch and her most wonderful of machines. And Coldplay, and Snow Patrol, and Elbow. And Ed Sheeran, and Taylor Swift. I also play harp. You should listen to me sometimes. I'm great.
You know, Derek, hanging out with you has made me quite big-headed. The head-inflation must be contagious. As you can see, I really like using 'damn'. Oh, damn.
Well, I guess this is goodbye. D: It's been great talking to you, Derek. You are quite amazing. And your head is probably as big as my Christmas tree. It's pretty big, Derek, pretty big. You know, however, your big head is a detail easily overlooked. Never lose the amazing ability to have such an amazingly big head, yet still be able to get something, something just as amazing, out. Something that makes my day. Something in the best book, ever.
Don't forget that I love you either, Derek. xD
Yours faithfully,
Someone that really, really loves your books. Her name is Kara. You should love her, too.
Bah
Oh gosh.
I love you all so much. :')
Mel, could you do me a favour?
Mara in the words of lord of the rings -
One ring to rule them all
One ring to find them
One ring to bring them all
And in the darkness bind them
In the land of blogland where the minions lye...
Yes what is it?
Send Derek that tweet.
I'd like to see what his take is on the situation.
If I should leave, or stay.
I want Derek to decide that.
Cause he is my Golden God :')
No prob ;)
But its pretty brief because y'know I only get 140 characters :D
That's fine, Mel. :)
Thank you.
Ignore me then...
Ohh yeah hey Nix!
hi nix
Right. I'm here. Mara? Shut up about leaving. Don't. You. Dare. If you do, I will haunt you for all eternity.
Nix!? :o
MARA YOU BETTER STAY NOW YOU MADE ME CRY AGAIN WRITING SOME OF THESE E-MAILS D;
Distant.
NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIX!
Question: Do you have blonde hair?
Oh yes, back. *tucks wet hair behind ear*
HI Star! Hi L.! HI Mara! Hi Robin! HI everyone else!
...No. No, I have brown hair. You should know that
Oh, and Mara? If you leave, and Kestrel is unavailable for haunting, I'll willingly take her place. Trust me, you do not want to be haunted by me. I'll drive you mad
NIX! ME AND STAR HAVE A QUESTION: what colour hair do you have?
It's not completely weird, I promise! Star just keeps making Nix jokes. :P
Hey Kessie!
*tilts head*
Nix jokes?
Who's on
HI Jubi! HI Nix!
Nix, I know her on other online sites(Wattpad) so I will be COMPLETELY available for haunting.
I am...
Mortals and me Regan. That should answer your question
KEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES! HI!
If Mara leave, I will . . . I will . . .
Probably quote somebody. I think that's the only way I can get messages out, because frankly I'm horrific with this stuff. D:
Omfg, damn internet. ._.
Yes, but Kes, I'm dead, so haunting is kinda my area now.
GAAAAAAAAHHH!!!!
*whacks head off wall*
You're dead? I thought someone had taken you to Nye to be fixed after you were turned to ashes...
MAralie! Stop that immediately!
NIX WHAT IS WITH THE ITALICS!?
Also, any idea when Sparx is back? I'm Sparx and Zathless. D: I'M ALL LONELY. :'(
Hey, Kes!:D
Kes, when you're turned to ash you're dead. Nye can't change that. I think your turning him into some sort of god
*laughs at how me and Scáth both asked the question at the same time* *ends up coughing*
My cough is getting better, however. I'm coughing much less. :)
MWAH HA HA! NIX IS NOT BLONDE! I WAS RIGHT!
*frowns* Wait. No I'm not. I never said he wasn't blonde. DAMMIT. Let's just pretend I'm right. :)
Well, Nix, Scáth has, twice in the past few days, called something strange and then I go something like, "What do you mean it's Nix?"
Sorry. You're Strange and Nobody. I can't NOT joke about it. :(
I sent him multiple tweets Mara ;)
Why does everyone like Sparky and Mist over me...?
Sparky's back... I forget now.
Anyway, Star, I'm dead. It explains all
WHY IS LIFE SO HARD?!
*whacks head off wall*
I make jokes about those as well Star, nothing new
Nix, he fixed Scapegrace from being dead. Although I suppose that is a BIT different. Is there any way to un-dead-ify you?
Why is he talking in italics?
He's being a ghost. :)
HELLO, STRANGE GHOST.
Mel, thank you. :)
Now.
ARGGHHHHH DECISIONS!
*whacks head off wall*
Because if life was easy we would all be utterly and completely mad :D
Mara, life is hard because if it wasn't then there would be no purpose to it.
Life is hard because your not following it's expectations
But that, in my mind, is a good thing. It means that you're doing what you want. So to take the easy way is to just follow what someone else wants of you. Do what YOU want
Decisions? There are no decisions. You. Will. Stay.
Yes there is Kes, but I enjoy being dead for a while
*crosses arms stubbornly*
NO. KESTREL LESTARRE. NO.*whacks head off wall*
Mara? Stop whacking your head off the wall. Do NOT make me tie you to an...um...tree...
Okay, Mara, I just looked at your reason of leaving.
That isn't even a reason. It's an excuse
Why leave? What good would come of it?
Im currently spamming dereks twitter acount with messages ... mwahaha and yes they are about Mara not leaving...actually they are about him helping Mara make her decision but you get my point...
It's not that I prefer them.
It's that I talk to them more. Sparx is my sisters and the one I fangirl with over ridiculous pairings. And Zath is Zath. He's him. He's my best guy friend. *nods* and Nyan cat... *laughs* OH AND THE RAINBOWS AND BAGUETTES AND... We have, uh, normal conversations. :)
Life is difficult as it's trying to test you. The difficulties in life are outweighed by the luxuries and the positives - like you perfect people:3
Melica, don't spam Derek. He doesn't appreciate it. One thing will get his attention.
*tilts head at Nix* I've never spoken/I never speak to Sparky all that much. :(
Reading comments is not quite the same as speaking to people. It's like the difference between knowing real live people and knowing book characters.
I put you and Zath in the same category and I favour you both the same. That is the truth. It has to be the truth because I never lie. *snatchs ice lolly off little kid* THIS ICE LOLLY IS POISONED! IF YOU EAT IT YOU DIE!
*little kid runs off crying*
Yum. *noms unpoisoned ice lolly*
I miss Zath as well
Best friends, be me and him
But I annoy the hell of of the Mistico
And I enjoy doing so sometimes
Now I just want to curl up and cry. :(
Sparky's my best Blog friend. Come to think of it, she's pretty much just one of my best friends.
Mel.. What's your twitter?
Curling up and crying isnt good :(
Well, he's my best friend. Can't say the other way around for sure
*grabs hold of Mara*
I know that pain in your head. That feeling that you just can't do anything right.
That feeling where you just want to hide away, where you think you are always causing people pain or bringing them down.
Wishing that you could tell everyone all that you've been through but know if you do, they will never see you the same again.
I know what war is raging in your head. I battle it everyday. I have battled it when I was younger, I am battling it as a mother and I will battle it as a new wife.
But Mara its a part of you. Thats what gives you that essence of being who you are, its the spice that can leave people wanting to know you more sometimes.
*hugs Mara tightly*
Don't go sweets. I haven't been on blogland that long but one thing I know is you can trust every single person here. You can trust that they will help you, encourage you, scold you if needs must.
They are your family and friends, they will be there all the time.
And losing a friend, especially one of my friends... I think that would break that part of my heart that you have all stolen from me.
I LIKE TREES, KESSIE.
I have around 3000 out in my garden. We, uh, used to sell them.
Zath, Sparx and Lynx. My Blogland confidents and best Blogland friends. Purely because they know so much about me and stuff:3
Hey Luce, what's your profile pic of? I can't figure it out
*tilts head again* See, you all know Sparky really well and all. I . . . don'ts, really. I just don't feel like I do. We never properly spoke all that much.
*laughs*
Luce, those three are... well, at least important to me.
Sparky never really liked me much though
... Thank you, Emerald.
I'm... Waiting for Derek to decide...
Maralie? That's a lot of trees.
Me too, he thinks spamming him is easy well it is but y'know...
It's of her, Nix.
Well, of her but editted.
Plus Zath and Nix are two of the people my family have heard about. Nix with the exploding me thing and Zath with the Moose thing and with the killing me thing.
OH GOD IT'S HALF TEN. *goes to dry hair*
Derek can't make these decisions for you Mara sweetheart.
He's only an author.
But look at all the comments since you've announced that you were leaving... is that not reason enough for you to decide to stay.
Is that not the choice decided for you?
I have to go. Bye. Mara, please don't go.
Hi
My pic? A selca I took a while ago:3
They're the people that are always there for me. I mean, I love almost everyone in Blogland, but those three I talk to the most, I guess^^
AND STAR IS MY YORKSHIRE BLOGLANDIAN FRIEND
AND RIM IS MY FILTHY MINDED FRIEND :P
And Mara is beautiful!:3
Bye Kessie. *hugs* I love you like a sister, alright? Don't be upset...
What I am? You're annoying pet Hamster?
At least let me be a dog. Give me some dignity
Um... hello... anione?
Um... hello... anione?
Nice way to start a new page
Lovely way to start a new page ... ha
Hi Regan! *hands Regan a turtle*
MARA DO NOT MAKE ME SEND YOU A REALLY LONG E-MAIL THAT WILL MAKE YOU CRY
BECAUSE I WILL
I'M IN ONE OF THOSE MOODS WHERE I'LL DO ANYTHING I CAN TO GET WHAT I WANT. And, right now, I want you to stay!
Erm a turtle??
I'm a complete stranger to all of you. Okay, so this might not work, becaus eyou mightn't care for my opinion, but I'm trying to help you guys out here. I'm sorry, so sorry, for intruding on your private business, but I thought it was time. You were all too cut up.
My view is completely independent. I don't know Mara, or Sparkly, or Nilx, or any of the rest of you. (Sorry if I got the name wrong). x) So, you can't just say I said it because I'm your friend because I'm pretty sure none of you like me. I'm saying this as an outsider. An outsider, and that's all I've ever been to anyone.
I tell you, guys and girls, someone will not - no chance - tell you that they want you to stay if they don't like you. Mara, there might be no reason for them to ask to stay - whether you're funny, or nice, or friendly. You could be all of those things and you might not even think it. But they said it for SOME reason. Maybe they love you, maybe they like you, maybe they think you're invaluable. But, dear, doesn't matter. Because they want you to stay. There doesn't have to be a reason for love, or liking, unconditional or not. So, dear, my advice would be to tell you to stay. 'Cos they want you to.
Believe it or not, you might think these people have no reason to like you. But they DO. You might think you're doing them a favour by leaving. But you're NOT. So don't hurt them. Because they really, really, don't want you to. D:
I hope you think something of my opinion. But, you seem like an interesting group, and I'd love to chat to some of you. Anyway, I hope I've helped. If not, internet slap me. :] Internet slap me with internet cheese.
Kara <3
I know Emerald... But...
God. Read All About It is starting to sound pretty much like I'm feeling right now.
That was beautiful skul -manfan
*laughs*
My mum isn't a dog person though. I'm sure she much prefers hamsters. She's never moaned abput hamsters and hamsters owners like she has about dogs and dog owners. IN SOME WAYS, BEING A HAMSTER IS BETTER THAN BEING A DOG. :)
But nooooooo, be an octopus.
*hugs Kara* You, my dear, are wonderful.
I don't even know you, but you're wonderful!
You, Skul-ManFan, are a genius. I'm awful at that kind of stuff.
Skul-Man Fan - Gosh. T-thanks... :')
*hugs Kara and hands her a bag of Hershey's Kisses*
that was amazing :)
Skul-Man Fan, you are awesome. If I had a list of people I find awesome, you would be on it. As it is, I don't have one, so nobody . .. uh . . . I mean, so no one is on it, but whatever. :)
Pats turtles head ... um Val why a turtle??
Thanks for your comments, guys. But this is for you. Not for you. CONVINCE THAT GIRL TO STAY. Or I'll put the shoe on the other foot, and internet slap YOU with internet cheese. x)
I'm not a genius, by the way. I'm weird - very weird. That's me. Oh, and you can call me Kara.
*Hugs*
Kara <3
Also, *laughs because Sparkly*
I ded to Mara, and to my oldest Blogland friends
Mist, Eve, Lynxia, Sparky, Izz, Flame, Star, Luce
Those of you not here I just haven't know as long as the others, or I've forgoten you
