Wayyyyyyy too busy to write a proper Blog thingy- you'll be happy to know that I am 13,320 words into Book 8- but can I just ask why I have so many Twitter followers?
I DON'T TWEET ANYTHING.
I don't even know how to re-tweet. Or do anything.
I also only follow two people- Gina Carano, who rarely tweets, and Ronda Rousey, who only stops tweeting when she's asleep.
In fact, on the run-up to her UFC debut in February, Ronda and her mum have organised this cool "feed the hungry" competition. Basically, you log on, answer some questions, and for every answer you get right, the advertisers on the site donate 10 grains of rice to the World Food Program. It's free, it's fun, you're helping people AND you're proving how much smarter you are than your fellow Minions.
How could you resist?
Go to Ronda's mum's blog (her mum is a Judo blackbelt... how cool is that?), follow the link and try your luck.
http://drannmaria.blogspot.com
Also, for all you Twitter people, could you take a picture of the Ronda Rousey mention in chapter 52 of KOTW and send it to her? I would, but I haven't a clue how. My genius lies in other areas. Like cookies.
And on an unrelated note...
Big congratulations to Em and Chase.

((i still need to ded... wbd while i type it up...))
(( i dedicate this page to escaping... because everyone needs an escape rout, a back-up...
also because with escaping comes running and sometimes thats what you feel you need to do. run. run from everything you hate and fear and need to pit behind you.
i also dedicate to this place. because it's my escape))

exactement ...
Mireille: [Goes back to Lea's house, covered in bruises] [Knocks on the door] [Remembers Lea gave her a key] [Waits to see if anyone answers, and if not, goes in]
#ChaseForBook9
*lea answers the door and jumps at the light of Mireille* *gestures for her to come in* what happened?
Mireille: Could I please use your phone? I need to call the police and tell them to arrest the bad man.
#ChaseForBook9
Lea: oh god... who the hell did this to you. i swear to god i will hurt them...
Mireille: [Shrugs] No idea. He seemed to think I was someone else and that he could get money from taking me somewhere. I convinced him it was a bad idea. [Smiles creepily] Let's just say he's now missing teeth. Like I am, only he won't grow new ones.
#ChaseForBook9
Lea: if you ever see him again, point him out to me... what did he look like? did he have... erm, powers?
Mireille: If he's awake, you can ask him yourself. A statue decided to hug him, but I can fix that.
#ChaseForBook9
Lea: *growls* take me to him.
Mireille: You should probably take deep breaths. You don't have to stoop to his level. He can't attack you. [Leads the way out the door and down the street a ways]
#ChaseForBook9
Lea: *follows*
(( is it weird that i'm thinking "hi ho hi ho, it's off to work we go"?))
((Yes. Very.))
Mireille: [Leads Lea to where a colleague of Franks ((maybe someone who had questioned Lea about Snow's whereabouts at some point? Could Lea recognize him?)) is struggling to escape the hug of a bronze statue of some famous person.]
#ChaseForBook9
((sure thing))
Lea: *growls* you. *stalks up to the man* i can't beleive you lot. sinking so low that you have to beat up a little girl. you're pathetic. the only reason i'm not hurting you right now is because she's asked me not to sink to your level. *shakes head in disgust* and you call yourself a sanctuary agent, Bob.
Bob: She punched me in the nose and attacked me with a statue!
Mireille: You started it!
Bob: Did not!
Mireille: Actually you did. You tried to grab me and put me in a truck.
Bob: My truck! You killed my truck!
Mireille: Just the wheels. The doors, radio and air conditioning should work just fine.
#ChaseForBook9
Bob: [Swears and kicks out, but is stuck in the grasp of the statue]
#ChaseForBook9
Lea: Mireille, i'm leaving this up you. what do o want to do with him?
*you
Mireille: I think he needs lessons in anger management. Do you know any good psychologists? We could also call police-people. [Shrugs] Or television people to censor out the grown-up words.
#ChaseForBook9
Lea: lets take him to the police. tell them he beat you up and tried to kidnap you. but maybe leave out the bit about powers. the police dont believe in them... maybe say i stopped him? they might not believe a seven-year-old could fend of a grown man...
Mireille: That's because they have very small imaginations. If I make the statue let go, can you grab him?
#ChaseForBook9
Lea: yes.
Bronze statue: [Lets go of Bob and walks back to its pedestal]
#ChaseForBook9
*lea grabs bob, holding his arms at his sides*
Bob: [Screams, curses, and threatens to charge Lea with assault on a Sanctuary official]
Mireille: [Finds the nearest bystander and gets them to call the police]
#ChaseForBook9
Lea: i'm not assaulting you. i'm just holding you. and you're the one that hit Mireille.
Bob: She's a wanted criminal! Sort of...
#ChaseForBook9
Lea: she's a litt;e girl!
Bob: She's dangerous! [Twists so Lea can see his bent nose]
Police cars: [Pull up next to Mireille and the old couple with the phone] [Mireille points out Lea and Bob]
Police: [Walk over and ask what happened]
Bob: [Rants about moving statues and evil seven-year-of girls assaulting him] [Swears a lot and insults people]
Police: [Think he's crazy] [Ask Lea what happened]
#ChaseForBook9
Lea: this man assaulted my niece. he tried to kidnap her but i came out, saw him and was able to stop him. he's obviously insane, taking about moving statues.
Police: [Arrest Bob and ask Lea and Mireille to come to the station to make an official statement.]
#ChaseForBook9
Lea: *raises an eyebrow at Mireille and follow's the police*
Lea: *whispers to Mireille* i just love the way they didn't ask you what happened...
Mireille: [Walks along, acting like a scared seven-year-old girl and sticking close to Lea]
>>Forward to the police station>>
Doctors check on Mireille and see that she has no serious injuries, though some of the bruises will probably hurt for a while. Bob, on the other hand, has a broken nose.
Lea is given a lot of paperwork and such.
#ChaseForBook9
(( i g2g, bye! ))
*Before the flash forward:
Mireille: [Whispers back] Well, I am seven. Almost eight.
#ChaseForBook9
(( act as lea for a bit if you want))
((bye))
((WHAT? NOW? Fine. G'bye.))
#ChaseForBook9
((I'm just going to say that Bob was arrested, and Mireille and Lea gave their statements and went home.))
#ChaseForBook9
So, how did Adra get out of Limbo?
Ask her. I was either not there or not paying attention.
#ChaseForBook9
Well, is she on?
I don't think so, it's around 2:30am for her. You could look back in the comments, though.
#ChaseForBook9
Okay
I should probably get some sleep now...
Bye! [waves]
#ChaseForBook9
Bye Fabulous.
I'm still here...
And yeah, believe it or not I'm still right here... *Mutters*
*Spontaneously bursts out crying*
*hugs Death,, if she's still here, and somehow manages to hug her id she isn't still here* You okay??
#ChaseForBookNine
I'm still here...
Yay. :) I might be slightly distant, doing my jigsaw puzzle.
#ChaseForBookNine
And I poofed because someone used the phone and the wifi died.
I now want to attempt to draw a Where's Wally? picture. *groan*
But seriously though - they're so amazingly detailed. It's fantastic. I feel kind of sorry about the fact that barely any one appears to appreciate the effort gone into creating these.

*Continues to cry* Stupid bloody Australians...
@Death: Aw. :(
#ChaseForBookNine
Why were you waving around the bloody gun in the first place? Or pulled the bloody trigger and killed your "baby"?
People like you deserve to go die.
(Not directed at you Bloglandians... It's at the ass who killed his girlfriend...))
*reads article* *hugs Death* :(
#ChaseForBookNine
*Hugs Star back* I met her once... I didn't actually know it was her though... She was so pretty... It was two-ish years back... She pinched my cheek... I'm actually really sad.
Nobody deserves to go die. If they're horrible, that's just really sad, because they're blind, you know? I've told you I always get upset when the bad guys die in films etc., yes? Because they never get a chance to understand before they die. He shouldn't die. That's just a waste of a chance. He should be made to UNDERSTAND. At the end of the Inheritance Cycle, Eragon does this magic on Galbatorix which is very difficult because he just wants so bad for him to UNDERSTAND. And he makes him understand, and then he gets it, and I just love that moment because sometimes I just want so much to be able to do that, to make people UNDERSTAND. And maybe he does understand now, now he's killed her. If so . . . that's just beautiful.
You know, the reason A Little Piece of Heaven is a good love story is because people understand what they did and they want to make up for it. When people kill insects and are like yeah whatever it's only a bug, that's just sad, because they don't understand, and they'll live their whole lives never knowing what they've done. When people realise what they've done . . . that's magic. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
She came over to my school for some netball thingy.... I had to watch it... It was boring.
Sorry, ranted a bit there.
@Death: :( :( :(
*hugs*
Sometimes, people die, and it sucks, and they don't deserve to die and a beautiful spark has been extinguished, making the world a little bit darker. But what you have to do is be glad they existed in the first place, I think. :)
#ChgaseForBookNine
@Death: :) :(
#ChaseForBookNine
I think I may go sleep... I'm sick, tired and depressed and there is no ice cream in the house...
*Hugs Ink Bubbles*
Bye...
Oh . . . gtg soon. :(

#ChaseForBookNine
*wanders in* I still now threatened Niccolò in the afterlife when waking up is that bad?
Not bad, babe. Life is life. *Huggles* I'm not here either. The Mortal needs her sleep...
*yawns*
*is still apparently drunk*
Hmm. I'll try to be err today
Hi. Wbd, doing homework.
SAPPHY! *cuddles*
Sorry I'm distant, I'm driving to school now..
*cuddles Adra* Okay. Sorry I'M distant, need to finish this brainstorm. Good luck at school :)
YOU CAN DRIVE AND BLOG AT THE SAME TIME!? EPICNESS!!!
Ta!
Ah, well, cellphones
And by "I'm driving" I mean "my monks because I'm only 14"
Monks?
Also, I always thought you were sixteen for some reason.
Death! *hugs*
*mom
Wtf
Deathy is older than Adra...? *Brain explodes*
(Hey, I must still have some magic left in me!!))
Yeah it's just the way I talk, I know.
I look sixteen as well so it doesn't help my argument.
Ah gods there's a really dense fog.. We can't see more than ten feet in front of the car we're gonna die
*Laughs* Yeah. I thought it just might be mum/mom, because it's definitely completely normal to have monks driving you to school :P
*Starts to worship Adra* All hail the religiously royal Adra... She has monks... Evil...
Im 15 xD we are older then Adra i be 16 comes January
Damn... I'm younger than Zaf... I'm 16 in June.
Ahaha fear my reign.
Ah but Zaf- age has nothing to do with maturity
*Becomes a monk to drive Adra's car* It is a new world order! :P
Rose is younger than Zaf?
That's astonishing
Yes it does i am dominant MUHAHAHA
YES HAAHAHA DRIVE FOR ME MINION
*Pokes Adra's eye* Are you sure your younger...? You're older. You're just lying to make us feel better.
Dammit, I'm the youngest here by a long way. 13 until December...
*Mutter* Shut up... *Mutter*
Uh... No. No it doesn't
Zaffy was born January 25th! Zaffy is older. I mean ok i'm younger then some Minions but Zaffy older then Rose and Adra
Yeah I turn fifteen in March
June 17...
Holy crud, I missed Death's birthday... It was yesterday... Lol
I AM THE OLDEST BOW TO ME! *falls off rock pile laughing* rocks hurt
No matter how much the wind bows, the mountain cannot now to it. *Looks at Zaf solemnly*
Owwy....it hurts
*hits Zaf*
Yeah
You just confirmed
Age doesn't equal maturity >:)
*howls
Zaf; NEVER *runs away*
Oh yeah, hi :P
*bow
Go my failed Mulan...
15 years =/= 15 maturity.
15 years = 6 maturity.
*Yawns* Right, I should get back to my homework... wbd again.
*slow claps for Rose*
Man
So like I tell my mom everything from here and so she knows about like everyone and most peoples names and stuff andOHMIGOD it's hilarious
I am mature!!!!!
Zaffy is mature, remind me if I see Niccolò I am hitting him very very very hard. Ok? I know as ZafTC i dont know he's dead yet but i know Zaffy gonna have his head in the afterlife
Death; I agree. I swear that as I get older, I'm getting LESS mature...
I knows I'm not. *readies thesauri* So I hit him with words HAAA
Yeah Zaf *rolls eyes* Real mature
Adra; Lucky. Whenever I try to tell my parents about on here, they start laughing. They think I have a crush on Derek o_O
Message to Adra's mum:
Hi Addy's mum. I'm Deathy!! Or Rose... Or the Grim Reaper *Cough*Damn you Nix*Cough*... I'd just like to say that Adra is a very wonderful person and I thank you for... *Pauses* I'll rephrase that, actually... I thank you for bringing her up the way you did!!"
Saph- that's what my mom throught at first. But then she takes most of the drama and basically tells me what I tell myself- it's stupid- and then I crack up most if the time.
Plus she psycho-analyses people.
Then we both do it
Then it's fun
Lucky you guys ... They think you're all 70-year old fat men leering at screens and trying to lure away "innocent girls" like me away and murder them.
My family are epic.
Rose- she said that I get it from her :3
So, Adrasdos. How did you manage to escape from Limbo?
Hi Adra's mon! I'm Zaffy the explosive one
*Hugs Adra's mum* I LOVE YOU LIKE I LIVE ADDY AND SHES MY SISTER AND I LOVE HER SO THAT MEANS YOURE MY SISTER AND I LIVE YOU TOO AND-
Wait. You can't be mother and daughter if you're both my sisters... *Ponders how that would work and bursts out into laughter*
*LOVE
*LOVE
Disgracefully, Aiden.
Zaf, she says "Yes I know, I hear it all from *edit* Adra"
Rose don't overthink it
Death; When I found out I go to the same school as Cali, we decided to meet. I happened to text a friend about it, but then I went upstairs and forgot about my phone.
Then mum appears in the doorway holding it and frowning at the screen, and then she said 'Who's this stranger from the internet you agreed to meet?'
Oh God, she was so mad...
Rose, I
I don't believe so
Unless by-
Wait
Hang on
Unless we were both adopted
See I'm special *pokes Adra with dynamite* *throws the dynamite stick at Aiden* Aww msd scoence
How do you not know you're going to the same school as Cali
That's awkward...0.0
And hilarious
And "good"? You locked me in there!
Hello Aiden :)
Adra's mom; Hi! Your daughter is very cool. Can you please hug her for me, because I can't do it myself? :)
*Hugs Saph* Naw...
*Grins at Adra* Thank you. That's what I was missing. Now my parents have... 7 children... Wow...
My aunt has 13 kids though.
0.0
Scoence :3
*takes the dynamite, lights it up, and throws it back*
Adra; We're in different year groups.
*dodges and it hits the Golden God statue* uh-oh....Derek's on fire LITERALLY
That's unfortunate. 13 kids, I mean.
My mom only has three :3
The first two were flukes but the third was perfect :,)
It was fun!
For me, anyway.
Still, though, Saph!
*hugs Deathy back*
Zaf! How could you?! *Waves hand to put out the fire*
It was Hell, you ass
*Snickers at Adra* I'm the defect.
Hey Aiden. Sorry, forgot to do that before.
Adra; To be fair, we did realise that we go to the same school within about an hour of meeting on the blog.
Yes well Aiden your enjoyment is not normal. Then again I fell for the 535 year old....*nods* *lays down in snow sobbing*
Yes, well, you're welcome down there anytime.
Now, what is going on in the roleplay atm?
Nothing Aiden. Nothing you need to know
...actually I probs shouldn't say that, considering my brother's states...
Yah.
Ah, I see, Saph
Aiden; Dunno. I like the name change btw :)
Aha yeah
I'm going to have to go soon anyways *nods* Bio in about twenty minutesy
YeahIM STILL DRUNK *waves arms* *frowns slightly* ow
Eli... Violet... *Cries* Elliot...
Zafira, don't patronise me. I deserve to know what's happening in the roleplay just as much as everyone else.
Well, I jumped through a portal back to the parallel dimension to find ParaDeath because she still had Judi and he flipping magic.
I have nothing now.
I lost my True Name to save Lorcan's life.
Adrasdos Dark* *sits her down* Have you forgotten you dislocated that arm just yesterday?!
I did whaaaaaaaat?
*her
*Sighs* Please, try not to get too drunk...
You..no. You need Judhipor, Rose. You can't just let her go.
I HAVENT DRINKEN ANYTHING SINCE THAT STUFF
I did let her go. Well, actually, she sacrificed herself... Damn hero... *Glares at Aiden and nothing happens* So now I have no magic, I have no desire to go around killing people and don't have anyone in my head...
*didn't
You have... No magic? At all?
None at all. I'm pretty much a Mortal now. *Smiles angrily* And she didn't even tell me she was doing it.
Msd. I can hear my brother walking around and I don't want him coming in here and finding me on my laptop at ten to one in the morning...
*Pulls an Adra*
((Okay Sapphy boo))
*sips her tea laced with bourbon*
Mmm.. Peppermint and, like, yeast or something
What?
No.. You need magic. We're not all going to sit here and live for centuries whilst you pass away. We need to get your magic back.
HELL YEAH!!!
K, Saphy!
Meh. I've lived. I can die. *Raises her arms* I just get to experience death quicker...
Wait. Because I don't have magic anymore, I don't need a taken name...
Screw ye, Rose
Um
I ded to the idea about Nic actually working..*nods* Because no one knows he's not here
Yeah
Also
I have to go- *falls unconscious*
*Hugs Adra* Love you too, babe!
Also, bye Adra!
No, Rose.. Please.
Bye Adra *hugs* Have a good day :)
Dannielle; I like it :P
*Smiles* Why? You guys live the high life.
I've always been more of a... Peasant girl.
*Murders Saph* I HATE MY NAME!!!
No. Please, just let us give you back your magic.
Nah. It's an awesome feeling being defenceless. I'm a cool banana.
I FREAKIN LOVE THE NAME DANNIELLE
just sayin'
Rose. I'm being serious. If someone like Nagier comes back, we'll need all the help we can get. You need your magic.
Like, I know any one of you could kill me with a snap of your fingers. It's like being best friends with heaps of giant crocodiles and sharks and lions.
I'm going now, so that I can finish my homework and get some sleep. 'Night!
Brb, msdbpn
*Takes a deep breath and looks sadly at Aiden* Magic ruined my childhood. I never actually got one. Just orders.
Just training. I never got to be a kid. That's why I'm such an idiot now. I'm actually astoundingly smart but I don't ever let that side of my shine...
Because I want to be a kid like everyone else.
Mara... *Glares and pauses. Starts sobbing*
Bye Saph...
Bye Saph! *hugs*
*stares at Death* Aw shit, what did I do?
I don't have any magic... I lost it... And Judi... And I can't glare at people...
I'm Mortal...
*Finally stops crying and straightens up* I'm completely useless to you guys... I don't know why I didn't see that before...
I guess I'll leave... Nice knowing you...
*Smiles sadly and walks into the trees*
(RP... I'm not planing on leaving... Unless I fall asleep...))
*grabs Rose* No. You stay. You have more knowledge and we need to get Niccolò back. You know I'll do anything for him, I don't care what. I think I know a way to do it I just need to research it ((aka work out with Ari and Adra the finer details))but you know he'll find a way. You know you're useful the process to die or age takes 50 years.
*Looks around a new part of Blogland she's never been too and frowns. There is a large building ahead of her and it is eerily calm* Hello...? *Walks forward as hears a loud bang* Wha...? *Frowns and looks down at herself, noticing the blood on her shirt starting to flower* Aw, Hell. *Falls down to the ground and blinks several times as she goes into shock*
(Aw... Hell. I didn't see that...))
(*Snickers* It takes me seven minutes to get shot. I wonder how long it'll take for me to die... XD ))
((S'okay Rose i am always msd ok? Just until school is over. My goal is save Niccolò this week. Preferably Saturday. I will find him
(Yeah, schools a bitch.))
