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.

«Oldest ‹Older 1201 – 1400 of 4953 Newer› Newest»COCO!!!!!! HOW WAS NARNIA?!
I've lived through centuries without ever asking why. But... Why... I suppose it really isn't a question. Dammit. Whoever mentioned Aretha- I hate you most of all... *stops breathing again* *makes wall of air around self*
My necklace is cold
*mutters quietly* I haven't been to Narnia.
-_-
Coco hates me
*starts sobbing*
OHMYGOD SOMEONE DIED
COCO DOESN'T HATE YOU, HE'S CRANKY COS IT'S PAST HIS BEDTIME AND HIS NAPPY NEEDS CHANGING.
*forces self to breathe* Zafria Kerias, the American Grand Mage. I don't know why Aretha always thought so highly of you.
...Wasn't Mevolent in the pool when the cars went in? Do you think I ran him over?
Of course I hate you. I hate all of you. I hate everyone. There isn't a single human on this Earth that I don't hate.
Jubilance, what are you yelling about now? Who died?
i don't know...
but Zaf's necklace is cold
MAYBE IT'S MEVOLENT
I HIT MEVOLENT WITH A MASSIVE LINE OF YELLOW CARS!!!
YEY!!!!! B-J KILLED MEVOLENT!!!!!!!!!!
well I guess that's the end of MC
xD
Aretha had common sense. I have led my people through many things. Just because I'm a Necromancer does NOT mean I will be talked down to. I am loyal I do not care for the religion Necromancers follow I strived my whole life for good in the world
Mevolent is alive
aw damn
He survived all the cars and the elephants?
that can't be possible -_-
Weeeeiiiiiiird. FRUITING MEVOLENT COCKROACH!!!
then WHO DIED ZAF
*goes pale*
I think we drowned Derek
*eyes widen*
HOLY BUNNY RABBITS!!!!!!!
*dives in the glitter pool*
You talk like you're a force for justice in the world.
*emerges from the glitter pool*
I CAN'T FIND HIIMMM!!!
Why do you all care so much about this Derek?
*glares at Cocco*
I am only doing what is right. Are you even American, child? (zaf appears 24 but she's older) I dont know what you know of me
Because Derek is like Lord Vader. HE'S A FRIEND OF MIIIINE!!!
*Stops singing and picks up a brick* He's Derek and that's all you need to know.
WHO WANTS TO PLAY TRUTH OR DAARREEE??
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
YEEYYY!!!
ok
TRUTH
or
DARE
TRUTH!!!
do you know about the baguette story?
BECAUSE IT'S BEEN KILLING MEEEE
NO. WHAT IS THE BAGUETTE STORY?
I DON'T KNOW!!!!!!!!
Meee!!! Lets PLAY!
ZAF!!!!!!
TRUTH OR DARE
OKAY. *HELICOPTERS INTO A GLITTER PUDDLE* DARE, TRUTH, TRUTH OR DARE?
Zafria... Did you honestly just call me 'child'? Well, I suppose you've no way of knowing anything about me. I existed long before your country.
Truth or dare... Aretha has told me about this game. I've (rather obviously) never played. And I don't intend to break that record tonight.
ok
DOES ANYONE KNOW ABOUT THE BAGUETTE STORYYYYYY
Dare
And yes Croatoan I did. I do not like being talked to disrespectfully. By you especially.
I DARE YOU TO TELL ME THE BAGUETTE STORY
if you know it....
if NOT
then i DARE YOU TO GIVE COCCO A BIIIG BIIIIIIIIIIG HUG!!
What a coincidence- I do not like hearing about peoples' opinions. Yours especially.
No- no hugs. I will not be dragged into this pointless game.
I should arrest you
*hugs Coco*
*laughs hysterically*
*stiffens* I'd like to see you try.
Shut up, Jubilance.
*is still laughing* Oh my god *wipes away tears* that- that was hilarious *keeps laughing*
I don't understand why you're all so... Annoying? No, that's not a strong enough word.
I can and will
*Cleavers come for you*
Annoying is fun :P
Okay, yeah, I'm going to bed now, really this time. Get in 5 hours before school.
awww BYE BJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*teleports away* *speaks in Zaf's mind* Have you forgotten that I killed three of those- quite easily, I might add- in a matter of seconds, when I broke Aretha out of your prison?
Goodbye, B-J. *sighs*
Soooo *puts hands in pockets*
Looks like it's you, Zaf, and me now...
Does that mean 'truth or dare' is over?
nope
COCCO!!! TRUTH OR DARE
Yup but it IS a school night for some :/
Don't drag me into this...
TRUTH
OR
DARE
*sighs* *shrugs* Fine. If it'll make you shut up, truth.
ANSWER THE QUESTION COCCO
Oh
YEY!!!!!!!
hmmmm
Cocco....
ARE YOU HUMAN
Truth or Dare yay!
And tomorrow it runs until 12am UK time
In what sense of the word?
are
you
a
human
being
Technically, yes, I am a homo sapien.
well what do you mean TECHNICALLY?
what would make you UNhuman
You're a creature
That's not part of the truth, is it? *aloof smile*
well i didn't ask for a TECHNICAL answer....
I asked for a.....
um
UGH!!
COCCO TRUTH OR DARE
You just asked me. Now I get to ask someone else. Jubilance- truth or dare?
TRUTH!
Were you the assasin who nearly killed Aretha, weilding laughter and a knife as weapons?
*goes pale*
uhm.....
*clears throat*
maybe......
*smirks and glares simultaneously* *suddenly appears behind Jubi and whispers into her ear* Someday I will tear your flesh apart, bit by bit, with a sewing needle.
*spins around*
well she's dead anyways
so whats the difference?
*turns around and runs*
*watches*
*tenses* *teleports in front of Jubi, grabs her shoulders, and blows into her ear* *inner ear freezes over completely* *whispers into other ear* I can make you wish you had never been born. Shall we try it?
*Cries out as ear freezes*
*punches Cocco in the stomach*
*grabs fist and twists arm impossibly* I could start by snapping the tendons in your arm. *grins*
*Cries out again as arm twists*
*Knees Niccolo and reaches for knives*
It's not MY fault! I was PAID to do it!
*grabs fistful of Jubi's hair in other hand and tosses her away* I don't care whether or not you were paid. *mutters to self* But torturing you won't bring her back. As fun as it would be. *says out loud* Isn't that the whole thing with emotions? That they're completely illogical?
*scrambles up and dusts off*
You watch too much star trek...
*face brightens* HEY!! YOU'RE A VULCAN!! THAT'S WHY YOU'RE COMPLETELY EMOTIONLESS!!!!!!!!!
*throws knife at Niccolo*
*catches knife between fingers* I've never seen Star Trek... And what the Hell is a vulcan?
Oh.. well
never mind then...
*Glares at Niccolo and uses magic on him*
*begins to laugh hysterically* *breathes fire with every exhale*
well
you're definitely not a vulcan....
*tackles Niccolo and pulls out a second knife*
holy crap! HOW MANY FREAKING POWERS DO YOU HAVE!??!!?!?
Hello?
What, no! I didn't just say that. I have better control over my temper than that.
Sort of.
'Kay, I'm really distant, if anyone else is here. And msd.
...
No.
I do not have the patience for this.
*death glares* *fails to appear threatening in a dress covered in glitter*
I. Hate. You. All.
March 28, 2013 at 12:47 AM
I am dying right here Croatoan!
Mental note: Glitter is an effective weapon against Coco. (I will not stop calling him that)
Hi Death.
Fabi is going to sleep now. Night, anyone!
Sorry... My chicken got attacked... Her scalp is off... I'm shaking... It's shaking... We are both traumatised...
hello?

im alone.
Sorry... I am here... Kinda... I'm scared!
...Hullo?
Uh, TMS Celebration day is pretty similar to a normal day...
I shall return after the horror of SCHOOL.
But I finish early today so:)
OMGG. I was right to look forward to reading the celebration comments!
I felt so so sorry for Niccolo, but I was just laughing irl loud loud like a total lunatic as I read the comments . . . :)
I LOVE BLOGLAND CELEBRATIONS!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH ZAF! THANK YOU SO MUCH /EVERYONE!/
And sorry, Niccolo. :(
HI/BYE IENI!!
HEY STAR!!
I am feeling so sick... I smell like wet chicken and chicken blood...
I am so close to throwing up...
The chicken is sleeping on its feet... Thank God! Her name is Niccolo... Rohan named HER...
*Remembers Cocco*
I am now dead... Too... Much... Funny...
HEY DEATH!! *tacklehugs*
My 'brb' comment didn't post. *grumbles*
Hi Death!
Hope you feel less dead soon . . . Although, you being death, dunno if that's possible. :P
Sorry.
Hi Cain!
I already said hi to you on my brb comment, BUT THAT DIDN'T POST. D:
Disappearing comments are annoying. *nods*
SO HOW IS EVERYBODY TODAY?
AND HOW IS EVERYONE WHO ISN'T A BODY, ALSO?
AND EVERY PERSON WHO ISN'T A ONE?
AND EVERYTHING THAT ISN'T A PERSON?
AND EVERY *insert anything you like here* THAT ISN'T A THING, EVEN?
I MAEN . . .
A EVERY *inter here any*isert here any*insert here any*insert here any* . . .

*MEAN
*AND
*insert
*things
*if that
Sorry, back on the laptop with disappeaing letters . . .
I'm good. :)
WE GOT OUT INTERIM REPORTS TODAY, AND I GOT ALL EXCELLENT'S IN ENGLISH. And I think the excellent's basically mean A's. *nods*
I don't really care what I got in everything else, really. English is all I care about.
HOW ARE YOU???
Oh, and I'm now officially on my 5 day weekend. :3
THAT'S SUPERB, CAIN! *hugs*
Five day weekend? :) *is on Easter holidays*
Is England the only country to have their main spring holidays always at Easter time . . . ?
But you have four terms, don't you . . . ? :/
I AM GOOD. I THINK. Sad how quickly my holidays are disrectionerearing. :(
We have a 5 day weekend for the Easter holidays, then 2 more weeks of school, then our 2 week holidays, in between each term.
Yeah, we have 4 terms.
Oh my Golden God.
I'm going away for most of the 5 days down south to my grandparent's farm. THERE IS NO INTERNET.
And I've got to comment my HGC entry (when it's finished) on the blog. And I think we're (mum [dad's at work up north] and my two sisters) staying until the 1st or something.
Uh oh.
:/
I would feel really ba if I gave up on THGC, but my mind doesn't like writing things it doesn't wanna write, y'know?
So have two conflicting arguements about whether to quit or not.
*bad
Explain to Zath that you need slightly extra - I'm sure h'll give you it, coz it's not your fault you're without internet.
Hmm.
Maybe you should see if you can write it, but if you can't, you could quit.
BUT A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE ALREADY LEFT, so, hmm... *trails off*
I think I'll see how much I can write tonight, and if I can't finish it, I'll email Zath, tell him I can finish it, but I won't be able to email it to him or comment it on the blog until I get back. But maybe my grandparents have got the wi-fi working down there already, but last time I checked, the guy who was going to install had to cancel because of other things...
But first things first, I'll see how much I can get done. *opens up HGC file*
That's WHY I feel so bad about leaving . . . :/
From this day forth, I shal never join collaborations, because it is hard for me to stay committed. Or if I do, I shall make it clear that I am very prone to quitting these things beforehand.
Becauseit's not just THGC it's the MC, and it's everything else I ever wanted to take part in . . . Although most of those fell apart anyway. :/
I have no idea what I was thinking when I joined the HGC.
Probably wasn't thinking, actually... XD
Wbd, packing.
I was in two minds, coz I thought, I'm bad with colllabs and stuff so maybe I shoudn't join . . . But then I was like no, you can do it, you WILL stick with it this time, you WILL make yourself write it all.
Yeah, look how that lasted. XD
I'm going to try and get my next entry all written though. *nods*
Although, *Horrid Henry voice* Not muhc time left . . .
Hope you have fun at your grandparents, anyway! :)
Bloody sick of these typos.
hi all ive still not got TMS dammit
I had a dream where all of the Bloglandians went skydiving... O.o
My type of fun is reading, writing, and drawing, and at my grandparent's farm, I do a whole load of that.
So, I will have fun. :)
HEY MISCHIEF!!
*has nearly finished packing*
*sucks at packing, so I'll probably forget something*
HEY MARA!! *tacklehugs*
Sounds like a fun dream!!
Hey Missy! :)
Well, uh, I think Jubi crashed into a tree.... but yeah, it was funny. *nods*
Hi Mischif!
Wel, I don't have it either. :
*Mischief
HI MARA!
That doesn't sound fun, it sounds SCARY. D: :)
Hi Star! :)
It WAS slightly scary... I mean, someone (I think it was Saphy...) landed on top of a car that plunged down a clifff.... She was okay though! *nods* We saved her somehow.
O_O
THIS ISN'T MAKING ME LSSSCARED. :)
If any other people quite HGC, I'll most likely shut it down.
*LESS SCARED
ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH STUPID LAPTOP.
*quit
Hi Zath!
See? And that is also why I'm not quitting until I have to.
You were okay though! You and Luci were chatting about Skittles on the way down. Missy, you were talking to Death and Jubi I think... And I was just screaming XD
Hi Zath! :)
Star, I was singing 1D while screaming XD
I think I sould just give up on correcting my typos and leaveyou to work it out. :(
But I appear to be one of the few people in the world who AREN'T exZayn about Skittles . . . XD SERIOUSLY I KNOW PEOPLE IRL WHO DON'T KNOW ME WHO ARE MAD ABOUT THEM.
But that sounds cool. :) I WOULD BE SO CALM IRL. I would freeze, methinks.
@Mara: Don't you do that all the time anyway? XD
*WOULDN'T
WOULDN'T be so calm irl. STUPID BRAIN.
I'd refuse to go out of the plane irl XD
I know. But it was while FLYING. Makes it SPECIAL. :P
Yeah, that's me.
Talking away. XD
HEY ZATH!!
...I think I've finished my packing. *probably hasn't*
It wasn't FLYING, it was falling with style. XD
They're this girl at rockclimbing who always screams when she falls off the wall. You're just climbing at the other end of the room and you just hear this loud high-pitched scream coming from where she is. XD
*There's
Brain, I hate you.
This is when she falls, btw. Not just comes dwn or whatevs.
Well, by Aretha's previous logic, we must now all take part in a collaborative story about skydiving. If such a thing happens- I'm stating this now before anything does- I will not be part of it.
Hello, Niccolo!
Have you recovered from being assaulted yesterday? :)
Hullo Niccolo!!
...We haven't met, have we??
*sighs* I still don't hate anyone any less for it. However, I did manage to rid myself of all the glitter.
I'm uh not here.
Just.
7 55 66.
I'm starting to get tired of ||||-|=|=_>
And I might actually be here. It's four am, so probably not, though. Oh, I don't know!
*nudges Cain* Niccolo is who Aretha wrote about in the MC before she died.
Rememebr me to come here being a character sometime. :)
Hi and possibly bye, Fabi!
Well, that's good. :)
No, Miss Cain, I do not believe we have. I am Niccolo Croatoan, and I have too many disciplines to name them all right here. I am only here because Aretha insisted that I come.
Ah, thankies Star.
*is really, really far behind on MC*
Hi Fabi!
*is further behind than Cain, probably*
It appears I must depart. D:
Dunderdul.
I shall hopefully see you all soon. Farewell!
Greetings. Which greetings, I'm not sure, but yeah...hi, I think.
BYE STAR!!
And now I must be off to dinner. Bbs!! *poofs*
And bye Star:-(
Sorry I disappeared, breakfast! :P
Hey Coco!!! *tacklehugs* WE NEED TO PUT MORE GLITTER IN YOUR HAIR.
Hey Fabigail! :)
See you, Missy.
Yes, I am technically a character Aretha has made up. However, I also exist as a separate being, with my own thoughts and personality, inside her mind. *is talking about real life now*
Hi Mara
Oh, bye Stararar! :( *hugs*
sorry i dissapeared had to get the bin but now im going officially bye bye all
No, there will be no more glitter. *vanishes* I may have to leave now, anyway. I shall be back in several hours.
And bye Missy! *hugs*
|||==|||:==9322 |||==66-|==>
Bye Mischief and C.
Bye Coco! D: *cries* I WANTED TO DRESS YOU UP
Bye Mischief!
So, it's just me and you Fabi. *nods*
*shoves* TAG YOU'RE IT! *runs away*
Yknow, whatever. I'll just stick to ||||~|=_|==|||==> The numbers could technically be read, even if Ember hasn't been here in ages. Also, I'm not as fluent with them.
|==:==|||~||==||||:||=|==||-|:|=_|>
There. No one read that.
I honestly wouldn't be that disappointed if a Bloglandian read what I wrote in code, though. It's still stuff I mean, I just can't get it all into English.
[falls over into pile of leftover glitter]
[Falls asleep in glitter and starts to snore]
Is not taking first
GLITTER! *jumps into pile*
*pokes Fabi* You're not dead, right? D:
Oh God.
Not dead~ not in any kind of reality, anyway. Except for the pseudo-reality which may or may not be the right term.
[wakes up thrashing and accidentally bops Mara with hand, leaving a glitter handprint on her arm]
*facepalm*
Wbd. Apparently dedding.
*jumps off cliff*
I'M STILL LIVING LIKE LARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRY!
*looks at glitter on arm*
*looks at Fabi*
*bops Fabi on cheek with hand*
*looks at handprint*
Whoops. :3
Okay. I might go... It's early.
I'll let you know before I leave, though, if I leave, which I might not. I like being here, but I might start to fall asleep.
[jumps]
Oh, right.
[bops Mara again]
You're it.
[rolls downhill]
That's alright. *nods*
*rolls after Fabi*
Come backkkkkk D:
*bops Fabi on back*
Tag. You're it.
*teleports into tree*
[keeps rolling and muttering]
[pauses and awkwardly realizes Mara is in the opposite Directioner]
[gets up slowly and brushes self off]
[looks around, double-checking everything]
[reminds self that dreams aren't real]
[starts towards tree]
