Hi Distant!
Vestige, how are you?
Aretha, I posted.. Twice..
*Grins*
I've eaten 3 of my 14 toffees!
*Eats more toffees*
My, my. What an intriguing meal.
An intriguing metaphorical meal, that is.
Fabi, blowing up stuff is fun!
I bet it is!
(For anyone who has no idea what we're talking about, mevolentminions.blogspot.com)
Nice story Death!
I'm going to write, now.
Have to keep up with the awesomeness!
Wbd.
Good idea Fab!
*Throws toffees at her*
I have heaps!!!!
Thanks Jubi!!!
Distances are great.
UUGGHHH I really have to think about what to write my part of the story about
I hate braces!
Luckily, Fabi the character doesn't have them!
[Gives toffee to Fabi the character]
Braces
Are
EVIL
Ivy... My awesome crazy friend...
You know what? You just don't know how to appreciate a book. Skulduggery Pleasant is easily the best book series I have ever read, and if you think it's no good, you're reading it wrong. They save the world, yeah, but Serpine was already known as a super dangerous villain from the magical war. And Valkyrie didn't fight full grown adults much in this. She did her best, fought like a twelve year old would, and Skulduggery helped her. Also, Skulduggery was full of himself, but that was just his personality. And too be exact - from someone who's memorized the whole book - Skulduggery only says he's a genius in one scene. He says it in a joking way, mostly because he knows it's funny. It's a certain type of humour, and only certain people get it. You know, the awesome ones. See? Like that. And for your information, in the second book they have to stop part of a god, the third book they stop the Faceless Ones from coming through and Skulduggery gets taken to another reality, and the fourth one Val saves him and they stop 80,000 people from being blown up. I could go on, but I really hope you're getting the point. Why don't you try rereading it? It just gets better every time you reread it. The 19th time was a charm.
Wow, Death... That was great! All I can say is- after I talk to the Grand Mage, I'm coming for Mevolent. And if you're still there, I'll get you out. I'll be honest, though; it doesn't look like you'll need it.
I hate braces. I have them and I am eating toffee anyway!
Our Ford 1979 XB coupe Horn McLoud Edition wouldn't start!
O.O
My braces go bye-bye in two weeks!!!!
BOING!
SPELUNK!
I really want to write more for the MC, but I can't do my next chapter until Zaf writes her part... Which means I'll either fall asleep soon, or maybe I'll write a chapter for Croatoan.
Me? Needing help? I have wood in my back and happily drinking my 1928 Moscato!
Shai's bringing Siren in soon.
She has sympathetic magic.
I can't tell if that was sarcasm or not... You're certainly not the type to ask for it, but I'm coming for Mevolent anyway, so if you're still around I'll be sure to get the wood out of your back.
Don't defeat him too soon, okay?
This is fun!
Hurt such a man as Mevolent? For what gain?
Would you guys even want to read a chapter on Croatoan?
Nah, leave it. It looks cool three!
*Turns*
It's really big too! I'd pull it out if I want it out... Anyway, Mevolent has Something big comin' from me...
*Grins evily*
It's this writing project...
mevolentminions.blogspot.com
The Mevolent Collaboration, aka MC.
Fabi the CHARACTER.
Hi
Oh and Jubi, if you're still here: Ha ha! Your convincing skills are almost as bad as mine.
He tried to kill me... He got rid of all the oxygen around me and forced it out of my lungs...
I would Aretha!!!
I'd read it, definitely, Aretha.
You've piqued my interest with this Croatoan fellow.
Hello, Ember!
What I said earlier before the computer ate my comment was: I'm waiting for Fabi to get injured... That sounds so wrong....
Random Duck!
I can get you out of the shell!!!
*Swims out and makes the gravity repel itself*
Swim out when ready!!!
Herroo, Fabi!
Hi Silver!
I posted a few things on MC
Yes, don't worry. It's coming.
I love torturing Fabi the character, too!
Well, I'm going after him... I don't know if I'll actually defeat him, but I'll try. And of course I won't attack him right away; you never attack an opponent until you've observed them for a while unlesss you absolutely have to. And I would hurt Mevolent, because the number of people he'll torture and kill if no one stops him. Is Mevolent someone you admire, Vestige?
I filled in the hole, now I'm adding on.
I was stuck in there for two day! TWO DAYS!
And the octopus people are really mean.
Hmm. I would love to hear you reasoning as to why you've embarked on the quest to end Mevolent's life.
I think my father and I have to meet up in the next post...
Purely accidental, Vestige.
It's fun, though!
Haha Aretha, I admire only myself.
It does sound like quite the adventure.
Oh, yes, and your newfound siblings !
It is extremely amusing.
Random Duck, I got my leg shot with a harpoon, my hand cut off and impaled... That hurt.. A LOT!!!
Lalalallalalala
Sorry.
When did yo give Shai the cookie!
Who are my siblings' mum?
I humbly beg forgiveness for my impending absence, but I must return to plotting Mevolent's death.
Dosen't sound like it would hurt
Bye Fabulous!!!
*Impales Random Duck*
Hurt?
Um, I thought this went without saying, but Mevolent is cruel. I've heard what he did in the war. There's no doubt in my mind he'll do it again. He will torture and kill thousands for the fun of it. I can't stand for that. Can you? What's your reasoning as to why you would let him live?
Idk, ask B-J. I'm guessing they're half-siblings, though.
I gave her 2 in real life, she's at my place for the weekend while her floor is being repaired.
No, not at all
Pain is a simple sensation. One all of us must experience at some point. A friend once explained it as weakness leaving the body.
I can stand it! Easily!
I'm going to hurt Mevolent the join him again!
Just looking back through all the comments....
SPPB got quite a few points this time around.
And I'm glad you guys are interested- in that case, I'll definitely be writing a chapter for Croatoan.
Cool!
Tell her i said Hello!
*Nods*
Okay,the Ducky
*Cuts off Ducky's hand*
Now?
Vestige, that is a really good description!
can i just say damn Serpine is one huge babe like babe 100% leg so hot
Thank you, Miss Rose. For a psychopath, you certainly are kind.
Ewwww... That my dad your talking about...
*Curtsies*
Thank you, and please, call me Death!
Oh, Vestige. Do your homework on Death.
And have we met properly?
'Do your homework on Death'?
What who said that
[Is amused. Is distant.]
Who said what?
Certainly it was not me who uttered such words.
I do not believe I have formerly made your acquaintance, September Silver.
I, myself, am very new to this realm.
Blegh
This realm is cool! There are taking trees!
Hey Nix! Again...
How are you?!
I'm blegh
Blegh... Blegh is a good word... Very... Blegh...
I was talking to someone about buying a dinosaur this morning (earlier)... Who was that?
Mel. It was Melicia.
A dinosaur? Of what origin does a Dinosaur spawn?
That's it!
Thanks!
*Sighs*
I feel like writing more... But I don't know what I should write...
Fab, can I write Mevolent's part of you getting shot?
I have no idea!!
Sure... I'll end the bit I'm currently working on on a rather...foreboding note about not noticing the man in black who was following me, then you can shoot me (as Mevolent), then Ember's chapter can come along.
[shrugs] It works.
Ah, the old writers block. Tis the downfall of many great legendary men and women.
I'm sorry... I'm tired.. Can you explain that?
Vestige, do you know Robert Browining? Great poet and author?
Moi?
So, Ember wrote this chapter, and I need to be really badly injured in it.
I'm writing a bit now, and I can end with Fabi being followed.
Mevolent can shoot me (he thinks I heard something important while I was spying) and that can be the injury I need to recover from in Ember's chapter.
Only I missed the important secret info cause of lack of attention span.
Do I know Robert Browning? Of course! In fact, I recall meeting him long ago. What a swell man.
Author of The Ring and The Book was it?
Did my post on legendary Men and Women ring a bell?
Oh... Where do you war to be shot? What setting? What time of day?
That's all I need to know!
I think...
[Plots own/character's downfall]
I want to get into all of this!!! *waits eagerly for Zafria's piece so I can join all the action*
On a street in Dublin, late afternoon?
Time is uncertain...
Same day, though,
He passed away 1889...
A long time ago...
And yes, The Ring and the Book was written by him.
He is my great to-some-great-degree grandfather!!!
Yes what a great loss. I, sadly, was unable to attend his funeral. In fact, I had not learned of his death until 2 months had passed.
He was a great (lots of greats later) grandfather... Though I did never meet him..
Vestige, not trying to be a creepy stalker, but how old are you?
One of the greatest puzzles of time.
Death- It is improbable that you will get a reasonable answer from this enigma.
(No offence meant, Vestige)
Vestige, are you The Doctor?
My brother is a jerk...
*Little brother and I talking*
Older brother: WILL YOU TWO SHUT UP?!
Am I? Another great riddle which someday beckons to be solved.
It is rather shocking how I enjoy making life miserable for Fabi the character.
Vestige... Really? Are you Doctor Who?
Glad I don't have an older brother... Just a younger sis who likes kittens and zombies.
My left eyebrow assures me I am not, in fact, of Timelord ethnicity.
My right eyebrow, on the other hand, (or eye, in this case) claims another story.
It's okay! I love making my own life miserable!
*Hums Miserable at Best by Mayday Parade*
Pain is the only way to tell if your still alive... Hence, the reason for the wood in my back!
Vestige, so, you're half Timelord? Or are you just crazy?
Quarazy quoin!
[laughs at Glitch reference no one will get]
[sniffles at loss of Ur]
You're right, I don't get it...
Nobody gets it...it was a game...it died...
Quarazy Quoins were like bonus points, sort of, not exactly.
Am I half Timelord? Am I crazy? A voi la scelta.
Oh... That'd make sense!
Sorry, I'm really distant- I'll have the second chapter of my personal story, Apprentice of the Night, posted in a few minutes...
Aretha, I think we're all distant.
I agree...
Distant!
[Walks up to Fabi the character and says, in best Darth Vader voice,] I'm here to put you back on schedule.
I actually am Aretha Tesla... She's literally me, if I had magical abilities. Of course, that's not going to stop me from stirring up the angst.
Death Rose is me. Me with my magical magical abilities. We are one!
*Sings I am Australian*
(But we are many)
I am a very multi-layered person. Fabi S. is a few of the layers, the ones that go best in the story.
OK!! Chapter 2 of my story has been posted. Next I get to work more on the MC! *is excited because I really want to join you guys*
SPELUNK!
Ooh, eerie, Aretha!
[ends segment on a foreboding note and publishes]
I think I'm going to go to bed now, but I'll see you all again tomorrow, and I'll be sure to dream up some wicked plot twists! Fairfarren all!
Night!
[should probably sleep as well]
Hmm..
I must be off!
so long!
Yaaawn.
Probably wise to sleeep now. However, wisdom is not my strong point.
Night, Thrust!
We will have plenty of time to sleep when we die.
To sleep, perchance to dream. Ay, there's the rub, for in the sleep of death, what dreams may come when we have shuffled off this mortal coil must give us pause.
There's the respect That makes Calamity of so long life,
For who would bear the Whips and Scorns of time.
Th'oppressor's wrongs, the proud man's contumely
The pangs of despised love, the law’s delay
To be up after midnight and to go to bed then,
is early: so that to go to bed after midnight is to
go to bed betimes. Does not our life consist of
the four elements?
Translation: Fabi needs sleep.
Goodnight!
Goodnight Fabio!
IT'S SO COLD D:
I actualy woke up an hour ago, but the internet wasn't on . . .
I'll be here after I've had breaklefast.
*actually
Yes! Finally finished with my jobs!
*remembers laundry*
Shoot, no I'm not.
*thinks*
Eh, it wouldn't hurt to leave it till later.
*thinks again*
Fine! Conscience is telling me I need to, so I'll be back soon. Wbd when I do.
*is back*
*is distant*
HI LAV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is here!
HI STAR!!!!!!
Cool pic. :) I read on a past comment you were making a stop sign as birthday present for your mum. I'm guessing that's it?
*laughs at failed attemt to have as many exclamation points as Star*
I wasn't looking. I was guessing. :P
Hi Death!
*checks on MC blog*
Dang! You guys post so much so fast!
*wonders if she should keep working on hers*
At this rate- you guys will be finished.
*gets idea*
We should totally finish it and give it to Derek at a signing!(we meaning someone else as I'm in another country and Derek doesn't even go to America anyway)
*laughs*
Yep, lav, that's it. :P
I'm changing my pic soon, though. *points at Photoshop document* Making one now. Nothing too complex.
HI DEATH!
Hi!!
Posted on MC for the third time today...
Hi Star!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wait, I call you Ink!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm in the merry old land of Oz, I could... Maybe...
I just saw it, Death...
I've got three chapters to read now...
*thinks she has no time to write- seeing as she reads mostly*
I write it in notes and blog at the same time!!!
The people who call me Ink are nearly all Aussies. *grins*
Oh wow, yeah I just realized that, Star. Death, Sparky, Mist...
*voice trails off*
*clears throat*
But Eve calls you Star still, right?
I write in notes too, Death. :)
HELLOOOOO
Eve calls me Star or any variation of Star. I at present call her Eve or Evil Eve Evil. :P
HELLOOOOO, SCÁTH.
And I call Scáth Scáth. *nods*
I have no idea where I'm going with my chapter... I don't even have my mom's name yet!
*sighs*
So many directions it can take,
So many choices to make.
I've recently been in a poetic mood. Sorry if I rhyme or type poetically.
And... I've been having mood swings... Mostly when I'm not on the blog though, cause I don't want people caught in it...
Hi L!
Hey, what do you guys think of the name Cellia? Or was it Ciella?
*thinks*
No, pretty sure it was the first one.
I was just making random names yesterday and came up with that.
And Sorlia and Franzy and Arthelda...
The Franzy name was when I was thinking of Franny(don't ask...) and I was thinking of Aretha's name when I typed Arthelda... But I think it's a better name for a place. What do you think?
It's a nice name. :) Pretty.
*tries to remember the conversation I had recently about the word pretty* Oh, right . . . I didn't have that conversation, some of my chararcters did . . .
I have a really good idea for the name of my escot in THG comp. I'm going to say it's really long and confusing and I can't remember it. :P
Problem solvedddddddddddddddd.
*thinks again*
Never mind. Arthelda is an okay name for a person.
Sorry, I'm typing(talking) a lot... I'll stop.
I like Sorlia best. :)
Arethelda sounds like a LOTR-style name. :)
Haha. Funny Star. :P
Yeah, Sorlia was my first I came up with. :)
And that's what I get for typing a lot...
I dedicate the page to names. They're fun to make up and random sometimes, but what would we be without them?
And Star, for being a good name creator. I like your names. :)
And Eve for finding creative ways to say Star. I remember that. :)
GUESS WHAT THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT ON THE RADIO!!!!
GUESS!!!!!!!!!
IT'S CHILD BENEFIT!!!
Why am I not surprised, again? Oh yeah. Almost every day I hear people talking on the radio, I hear them talking about Child Benefit. :/ The radio presenter people must be sick of it.
Having said that, it's kinda interesting to hear everybody's different views.
Oh yeah. For those who don't know, the British government is deciding they'll only give child benefit to those who have the main earner of the household earning 50000.
Thank you! *hugs Lavender*
I'm very bad at making up names. My best name I ever made up is Star Inkbright, which is fortunate, seeing as I used it att. :)
50000???
Um, is that a good thing or a bad thing...?
I don't do news stuff- mostly politics and government things... Which, come to think if it, might not be so good now that I'm getting older.
*wonders if she'll be able to understand anything about government things*
One reason I don't do them is cause it's boring...
Picking my taken name was quite easy...
I just thought and two names just came together...
Like how Derek found Skulduggery Pleasant
No problem! ^_^
I remember when you were still thinking of your name. It was Star Midnight first, then you got people to vote for Inkstar Midnight or Star Inknight.
Then you changed it completely to Star Inkbright. :)
*laughs* I know. :P
Inkstar Midnight is an AWESOME name - it just doesn't suit me. :) Star Inknight is just too red a name. :P
@Child Benefit: Bad, because you could have two people in a household earning 49000 each and they'd still get child benefit, but you could have one person earning 50000 and another earning nothing and they wouldn't get any child benefit. It's unfair.
And I remember when you had that super long name of the disappearing inky octopus girl who is the enemy of llamas and has MPMTB(munchkin penguin minions to be) or something like that.
I thought of mine before I joined the blog. A shade of purple and a feeling. Although, I was thinking either Faith or Hope before I went with Hope.
Yeah, that is unfair.
Hey, I just found out how to undo typing on Notes today! Finally! I've been wanting to know cause sometimes I make a mistake and I couldn't figure out how to undo it before!
Like, a major mistake. Accidentally-erasing-all-your-work mistake.
Ah, I just press done then I trash it!
:P
Do you know how to undo, Death?
*realizes it sounds like 'how to undo death'*
Which would be interesting but odd if you could.
Shake the iPod!
Try 'dancing with Death'!
That's awesome! :)
I'm going to chruch soon, so I think I need to go now . . . :/
Fours!
See ya!!
Bye Star!
I gotta go too. Dinner.
Bye Death! Oh- and I commented on your latest post on MC.
If she is, I'd like to save her. And um, I know that sounds weird, but I've got nothing else to write. Where do you think she is anyway?
Reply the answers to my comment. Bye!
I'll be distant!!!
hello...?
This Mevolent Collab thing looks like it's becoming a really large activity...
Maybe I should read over it...
By good fortune I have lighted well and returned with haste.
Good eve, i miei amici.
ehhh...what?
Hey Ves. Haven't spoken to you in a while.
aww nevermind I know now :)
And you are well met, signore.
You should, Mist! Be warned: it's slightly confusing...
Sorry, not here. Gotta take my shower. Then I'll be back. :)
I FORGOT HOW MUCH I ADORE THIS GAME, OMG
