But before I get back to work, I have been asked to remind you all that my event at the Stratford Picture House on April 5th is the only public event I'll be doing for The Maleficent Seven. For those of you who don't know what a public event IS, it's basically me on stage yapping and answering questions for an hour, and then we go on to have a signing. All other appearances for TMS are just signings.
I've been asked to remind you about this because apparently there are lots of tickets available. Well, I'm ASSUMING there are lots of tickets available. The words used were "it's been slow to book", which means roughly the same thing. Maybe it's because it's the Easter holidays or it's the start of a weekend, but usually events pretty much sell out in a very short space of time. So Harper Collins publicity people are all going "uhhh... what's happening?"
Oh, and for those of you who have already booked tickets, don't you fret. If it IS a smaller crowd than usual, it just means the event will be more of a casual chat between all of us. And also you won't have to wait in line for hours.
But, uh, for all you others... book a ticket. Or something.
I'm getting back to work now. But before I do, two pictures of cats.
One cute.
One scary.

Well its kinda no fun if you dont even know your true name and you can heal yourself the only people I know who can are Darquesse and Argeddion and me all of which know their true name so technically speaking you probably should be dead
- pries arms off and creates shadow gun, puts inside Edens mouth and pulls the trigger -
I am satisfied...
This is when it goes to crap when one person takes the whole thing to seriously and pisses everyone off.
I hope your happy Dwyer or Dylan Or Kai or whatever you change your name to next after you've pissed people off enough so that they won't talk to this one.
I changed my name and pic. I am still Dannielle. No matter what. I am still me, the person typing.
I do know my true name... its Dwyer. Only now, though because Zath keeps bitching about everything, so its not eternal rage, or anything. Its my true name.
Yeah seriously if you want a Blog fight own up to the fact I am a hell lot more powerful
That's why I didnt give Derek my true name because my OC would be TOO strong but as I'm in Blogland i really dont care
See you Death,
See you Zaf,
You, never talk to me again if you make fun of me or anyone I know I will finish you.
Uilliam out.
I'm confused! Is this your true name? It didnt seem it before
http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=r5NZE3v5Si8
Death, it was all an act. I thought you knew that. It was all a friendly battle, I don't actually have anything against Americans, or anything like that. It was all a stage act to seem like the bad guy.
New MC chapter! *looks around* Oh... *walks to stand beside Niccolo* *facial expressions change as if having a conversation* *finally appears satisfied* So... How is everyone?
*Shyly*
Terrible Things?
Its so cute how Eden thinks he's all intimidating to me. Ah, goodness. He has no idea how the internet works...
*collapses against tree*
Damn it Justaria!
Does using your true name take a lot out of you, Zafria?
*Relaxes into the melody of Terrible Things*
You are some eejit.
- runs over to Zaf -
Are you okay? Do you want water or anything?
Feeling any better, Death? Sorry I wasn't here for all of that- it's been way too long since I wrote for MC...
Yes because Justaria tends to use levels of magic that I dont use often
*Probably
*Sighs*
Thank you Eden...
I am... Better...
And I dunno much you can do for me she just takes a lot out of me
Huh. I said 'Ari I emailed you a lot. Sorry. And you should PROBABLY ignore the random tangent one' Sorry, I accidentally deleted it.
And I can't believe I just sat through most of that without saying anything. I can be such a wimp sometimes.
Zaf, good for you, defending our nation's honor. Sorry I wasn't much help. :-/
Eden, don't talk to me if you can't behave -
wait, how old are you?
13.
...makes sense.
I'm 15 irl but Zaf appears 24 but idk how old she is
Death, are you still here?
John. Don't. Seriously. That was me angry. When you see me defending my friends; you will shit yourself...
Eden can behave. I have known him since the day he came on (remember we bashed up that guy because you teleported to my house and took me to his?). I have known him and he has been my best friend on here. I have cried for him. We have danced atop the Eiffel Tower together during the Requiem Ball. Do not belittle him. Do not annoy him. I would do anything for him if he so desired.
*boxes John in the face *
I don't pretend to be threatening I Don't take crap from assholes like you so think twice before you open your mouth and piss people off so that they leave.
Zaf I actually thought you were 24.
Or around that .
I am fourteen. I am almost fifteen. I don't care what you have to say to him. Don't ever insult him again. Eden can do what he wants, you are older and should know better.
Woo, ok, just replied to the Raeza thing. I'll still be distant- reading the next one now.
Lol i act how Zaf appears xD i just put myself into her mindset
Ari, please don't read the 'Random tangent' one. I was upset when I sent it and it is no longer applicable.
http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=TcYakSym-0A
I <3 Derek Saunders
I will be back shortly. I have things I need to do.
Maybe fifteen minutes?
[hugs anyone who wants/needs a hug and gives America flag stickers to Zaf and Ari]
Oh, yay, thanks! Um, for when you come back- I already read it... Should I send my reply, or do you not want it?
Back. You can send your reply. Sorry, I didn't want to bother about it, probably shouldn't have sent the email in the first place, but I'm curious what you replied, so...yeah. If you already wrote a reply, go ahead and send it, if you didn't, don't bother, it's ok.
New MC chapter
I already replied. You should get it now. :)
Sorry to all the people who may or may not be here who don't know what we're talking about...
I'm here, but I don't think I count...
Distant- reading Zaf's new chapter
[laughs]
Okay, reading Ari's chapter, then Zaf's chapter, then Ari's email. Distant!
Oh God... I just scared myself SO bad...
*Hides and makes sure self can see her toes*
You okay, Death?
[looks doubtfully at Death's toes]
What happened?
Just commented on Zaf's new chapter.
You ok, Death?
My window is open and I can hear frogs..they're so noisy.
This is what it's like to live in the middle of nowhere.
I can hear cars, too, though, and the neighbor's television.
This is what it's like to live in so-called civilization.
Random thoughts...
Wow, my creative juices are really flowing now- more than they have for quite a while- so I think I'm going to start working on a new chapter now. I'll be distant, then- but still here.
Aretha i gtg email me what you wanted to
One of the definitions of 'civilized' is 'easy to sneak up on'. Random fact.
Bye Zaf!
I was just reading stuff about UFOs and urban legends....
The toes bit... As long as I can see my toes, I stay calmer... Hence the reason I hate wearing socks/shoes. Something random about me...
I first looked up the biggest animal to be caught by a snare trap on Google Images, saw a giant goldfish, clicked the page to read more about it and found I was on a website about aliens and the supernatural...
C., have I ever mentioned that you get on my nerves?
If not, I'm mentioning it now.
Night, Zaf!
UFOs...that reminds me. Ugh, I hate rush hour traffic, busy schedules and living far from Burien.
New MC chapter. Ari, you've already read it.
Very good, confuddling chapter Fab!
I'm back.
Maybe.
Hey! Sorry about the outburst before...
*shrugs*
Don't worry about it.
[Nods]
Hi.
Death, part of that was that I forgot to mention that the bold was the past and the italic the present! Sorry! I'm fixing that now. And thanks.
sdparevigja'erighnaeprio;svfjaoghnadfkvm ;sdlkvnhb;afklxcj vm.sr;vbjgarpbiwzdfkbln
I don't know why I typed that
I feel sort of surreal right now
I should probably keep writing so that I don't go completely insane
I'm writing as well, and eating chocolate, distant.
||||=_|:-|||=_|:||||=_|=_|||:||||=_|:-|||=_>
That wasn't actually gibberish, that was the title of a Little Mix song. Oh, well.
Hey guys I'm half here and half not I'm not supposed to be up and downstairs this early it's 5am on the holidays.
Eden--WHEN DO YOU SLEEP???
Also, hello.
Or, uh, half-hello.
Sleep? WHAT IS THIS MADNESS?!
I am not gonna be on for a few hours...
Eden, do you remember when you took me to Paris?
I don't understand why so many people are attracted to Paris. What is so special about it, anyway? There's a tower and a big dirty river and tons of people shuffling around taking pictures and holding hands. I really don't see the appeal.
Paris has lovely architecture, and the Eiffel Tower, and famous awesome extensive underground catacombs that happened to be a major setting in my tied-for-favorite book series. *nudges*
Nobody mind him, please.
Hi... again.
Sorry I poofed for a bit...ugh.
Anyway, I'm back now. Bye anyone who left, hello anyone who is here.
Hi, Fabi. Brb, gonna get some chocolate
BBack.
Niccolo, what are your magical abilities?
C. can eat people's true names (killing them in the process) and absorb their powers. Teleportation...shape-shifting...raising the dead...I think he's a psychic as well.
C. is Niccolo, by the way.
Yes... Eats people's true names (killing them in the process)...
Ren died that way... Niccolo, are you quite sure you are not Bob Hitler?
Oh. Well, that's not overpowered at ALL.
Death. I need to talk to Judhipor. Me, though. Not Dwyer. Is that okay?
Punch me in the face then.
If any true names/angry sides come out, I will vanish. Just a warning.
And who is Ren?
Yes, Fabienne pretty much nailed it- I can steal others' true names. I've stolen so many by now that I couldn't list them all if I wanted to- not that I would want to, anyway. It's generally unwise to reveal your abilities to anyone who might become an enemy. Already pretty much everyone here knows far too much about me for my liking, but I suppose it doesn't matter all that much- I still have plenty of secrets, and it's not as though what people here do know would do them much good anyway.
Oh, Fabi... Judhipor is coming out, but not to cause destruction.
Ren Clairavoyant was a friend of Death's.
Niccolo, doesn't that make you overpowered?
Friend? He was my man's BSET friend... Who was murdered by Bob Hitler...
For the last time, I have no idea who the Hell Bob Hitler is.
- punches Death in face -
Overpowered- what exactly do you mean by that term?
Right... [vanishes into the shadows]
I think you do... Did you die in Des Moines recently?
Is 'overpowered' like God-modding?
Well, if Niccolo killed Ren, then I hate him. Any friend of Death's is a friend of mine.
Yes, Aretha.
I have been out too much... Not that I mind though!
Judihpor. I need to ask you - are you my ally?
poofing, sorry
Also, Ren was a psychic, able to remove and implant souls in bodies that have been dead for less than four weeks.
Am I?
*Grins*
If you knew me a little better, I'm sure you would hate me, regardless of whether or not I had killed Death's friend. But yes, I did kill Ren. I still, however, do not know who Bob Hitler is. And whoever he is must have very poor taste in names...
Why did Niccolo kill Ren?
*Blinks repeatedly*
You killed him?
Bob Hitler was a name I-Death created for a man Ren and I had to bring back from the dead...
*shrugs* I killed him because I wanted his discipline. Simple as that.
Why did you Niccolo?
*Takes a deep breath*
You shouldn't have done that... You REALLY shouldn't have done that...
- attempts to hold back Dwyer -
You're a selfish monster...
- groans -
- leaps towards Judi and holds her back -
JUDI! You can't stop her alone.
In that case, I'm certain I am 'Bob Hitler'. But that is certainly not my name. And I just explained this; I wanted his discipline. So I took it. It's really very simple logic.
Me? How dare you.
*Grins and makes gravitational pull under John's feet stronger*
I can kill you right now with no regrets. You know that right?
How dare you Croatoan... How dare YOU!!!!
*Screams*
*yawns* Well, I'm still not really in the mood for a fight, so I think I'll go now. *disappears*
Judi, if you kill me, Dwyer dies along with me. If you need Dwyer's help, just ask.
Wait, Niccolo, what's your discipline?
*mutters*
Typical.
*Takes deep breath*
I am not going back. I mean it this time*
*Eats dark chocolate eggs*
- holds Judi back -
You're going to destroy things out of anger.
No I am not. He is gone!
*Falls backwards and falls on Dwyer*
Niccolo, we know you're still watching.
- eyes turn black and has an aura of shadows -
COME OUT AND FACE US, COWARD!
C. takes a while to write arrogant speeches, just wait.
[voice comes from nowhere]
- shadow walks in front of Zathract -
Chester is a little late.
(Sounds like several voices at once)
YOU SAID I WAS OVERPOWERED???
*Disappears and mutters something about hating violence and turning into a hippy*
Judi. Come here, now.
JUDI!
Uh.
Yes.
I did.
And you were.
But because you justified it by changing the logic to gaining the power via your True Name, you aren't overpowered.
Also, I'm not fighting you.
Also, please make an effort not to spit in my face again.
Also, Chester's never too late.
*walks back inside Chester, wiping spit from my face*
I'm not here to fight you, Zathract.
How is C. Not overpowered?
Okay, I am actually not here now, not just pretending I be not here.
*to
Because it's justified.
His discipline, as far as I can make out considering I've never actually met him until today, is to steal other people's energy, power and magic discipline. A side effect of using his magic happens to be that it kills the host.
That isn't overpowered, it's just powerful, and a damn majorly cool discipline to have too.
I wish I had thought of that! I need to get him to teach me how he does it!
Hi again, Death.
Hi Zath! Like my new style?
Oh, okay then. I now have the magical ability to destroy whole planets. That's my magical discipline, so its justified. Is that fair?
And I can kill people with a glare and twist gravity!
Judihpor. Why are you a hippy?
*sighs*
No, Dylan, it's not.
If you're just going to be stubborn about it, then I'm not going to bother. There's a different between the power levels used and the way they're used, and you know it.
I guess. But I'm still calling you Death, even if you keep the Judihpor username.
Because I hate violence!! Death is going to wonder about the flowers though!
I can't actually destroy worlds, it was an example.
Fine by me Zath!
That is not the Judi I know, or the Judi I need. Your mother. She was shot in the face. All of that destruction you left in your path. Where is the real Judi?
I know that, Dylan.
Oh, Death, I've been meaning to ask - you still want to be in The Battle For Blogland?
Here I am! I have just had a change of heart!
Oh, Zath! Can you send me a link of that chapter where I was in it, then died?
- stares into Judi's soul with black eyes -
Ren.
Yeah! Sure!
*Shudders*
Don't.
Niccolo killed him, Judi.
ONLY FOR POWER!
So? That was his choice!
Ah, it does seem that I have to depart... Farewell!
I can sense your mind thinking. Thinking about your raging bloodlust for Niccolo's death.
Sure, Dylan. Just let me find it...
Also, you're never actually ALIVE in it - we find you dead.
http://myuselessshortstories.blogspot.com.au/2012/04/battle-for-blogland-chapter-3-first.html
http://myuselessshortstories.blogspot.com.au/2012/04/dylan-sorry-if-this-offends-you-if-you.html
And, great, thanks Death.
I'd planned to have you in there for a while now, but I'd forgotten to ask you about it again.
Bye, Death!
Eden. You...don't want anything to happen to him, do you?
Oh, could I? I assume I need to write up a bio, but that's fine.
*grumbles*
Math sucks...
1st?
1st?
Uh, I was talking to Death...
You can't be in there again, you're already dead...
I dedicate to...
...
To...
...
*scowls*
I don't know...
H
Kai has been in there. John hasn't.
You're the same person.
Hence the quote...
“Jasper.” I said quietly. Dylan had never been my favourite person in the entire world, but his death was still a blow and he had still been an ally, if not a friend. “He’s dead.”
There was a short pause.
“…Uh…Who…?” Nixion asked, confused.
“…Jasper.” I repeated, not understanding why they were all looking at me like I was insane. “Y’know…Jasper Scourge?” No change. “Kai Oblivion?” I was still the insane madman. “Trelaque?” and now, apparently, I was an axe murderer with bad breath. “…Uh…Dylan Silver…?”
“Oh.”
You're the same person in the story.
But, you just made me DEAD. You didn't give me much of a chance. That's not really fair. Everyone gets an adventure, and I get to be found dead.
That was from battle from Blogland wasn't it Zath.
Maths is rather annoying... I will suddenly disappear soon.
Eden... I have lost Judihpor.
No, not everyone got an adventure.
Some of the people that applied to get in, like Kestrel, aren't going to be in it.
Some people just show up dead, like you and, currently, one other person.
Yes, it was, Eden.
I think that you are the thing that will bring her back. Or rather, your cries of pain.
I think that you are the thing that will bring her back. Or rather, your cries of pain.
I remember you were looking for firewood and you found him, you told everyone but they didn't really care.
It was quite funny.
I think that you are the thing that will bring her back. Or rather, your cries of pain.
No you haven't! I am here!!
I am just a hipppy now!
And now it's return of the looney tunes.
I have to depart FOR REAL this time! Farewell!
Bye, Death.
- grabs Eden and starts torturing -
I will heal you, but I need the real Judi.
- let's go -
Never mind...
Bye Death
Zathract, can I please return in Battle for Blog land? You just made me dead. Come on, please?
If you can think of a way to come back from the dead, sure.
(Also, Blogland is one word, just so you know.)
I was never dead?
Ahahh. I know.
You were killed off what can he do.
" oh it turns out Dylan wasnt dead and now he can destroy planets because he knows his true name. "
( its my autocorrect )
P.S. become a zombie.
"It turns out Eden was never apart of this conversation"
Zath, how about I wasn't dead, but I was out cold after transforming out of Dwyer?
You used apart wrong you should have said a part in that context apart is a synonym of separate.
*whispers *
Zombie.
It was my autocorrect. It's an android tablet, and it has no idea how grammar works, I am sure.
Dylan -
We all squatted down and inspected his face. Eyes open, expression angry and exhausted. His throat was slit and there were large rips across his clothing which were all beaten and ragged at this point as if he had been battling someone or something for days on end.
That seems pretty much dead to me. There's a SLIT across your THROAT.
Zombie.
