Quick Post...

A few days left of this rewrite, and the book will be done. DONE!

In the meantime, I shall be collecting all the names of those who entered the Spirit Lake competition, and should have a winner in a day or two. In other news?

In other news, this Friday, right here on this Blog, I shall be unveiling the COVER of Last Stand of Dead Men...

Prepare yourselves.

SHE NEEDS TO DIE, BUT I

[cries, a lot]

I KNOW HOW IM GONNA KILL HER AND EVERYTHING AND I

No thank you Eld.

ok

#cfb9

Mary Contrary said...

@Fabi: Can you (hint at or) make it as though she's...like, ready for it? Kind of content, to some extent?

I mean, if she's had a good run in existence, then maybe that's just what's gotta go, right?

Aside from that, she doesn't have to disappear because she's dead in one story - you could write about her in different places in time, or even in different worlds, if you wanted to... :) ^^

#ChaseForBook9

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

She's already in multiple stories, but she really grew and developed in this one, and I'm doing what I'm going to do with it. That's kind of... Not changing.

I just... Meh, sorry. I should just go sleep now.

. . . This ded was going to be really small, and then it grew . . . O_O

I dedicate this page to Avenged Sevenfold, because they are absolutely amazing. I'm not even kidding. There are some bands who just have wonderful lyrics, and some who have wonderful sound, and then there's some which have both and it's just WHOA WAIT WHAT. I could just listen to Avenged Sevenfold all day because they sound so awesome, and their lyrics are usually so meaningful and it's like ARGHHHHHHHH ASDFGHJKL.
. . . their songs are also so LONGGGG. I've just been playlisting their album City of Evil, and they don't have a single song under five minutes. To top that off, five songs are over seven minutes. When there's only eleven songs, that's quite a lot.

If anyone cares, that's the start of City of Evil on my Avenged Sevenfld playlist: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AijAGYZ4aAQ&list=PLTslNdjmKxFtDwh1k3FIRyXuARLNTj9fJ&index=26

To give you some hint of how awesome they are - I love them as much as I love Disturbed. Yes, that much. I'm not kidding.

Also, RIP The Rev. I hope you enjoy your afterlife. You will be missed.

Futhermore . . . I dedicate to whatever awesome music you like. Everyone has different things that they like hearing, and so just because your favourite music isn't my favourite music, that doesn't mean your favourite music isn't as awesome as my favourite music. In theory. In practise, my favourite music is THE BEST. It is the overlord of music. SO, UH, TOUGH. XD

I also dedicate to somethng else. This part of the dedication is REALLY, REALLY original. No one's EVER dedded to this before . . . It's totally unusual and unique.
I DEDICATE TO BLOGLAND AND THE BLOGLANDIANS!
(Yeah, see how original that was? *nods*)
Ranging from older to newer . . . this will be inaccurate in places, sorry . . . I dedicate to Dragona Pine and Taia and Skyril and Kal and Octa and Sparky and Ivy and Flame and Eve and Zath and Nix and Gab and Lynxia and Mushroom and Lav and Zaf and Death and Eden and Mara and Kes and Ieni and Jubi and Cain and Mel and Adra and Ember and Em and Ais and Fabi and Ari and Niccolo and Flora and Arra and Trip and Saph and Blaze and Dau and Rhydian and Dragona and anyone I forgot . . . I'm very sorry if I DID forget you, it's my absentmindedness. D:

I also dedicate to Blogland. A Bloglandian can never truly leave Blogland, as part of their soul is here forever. I'm not sure which day it was, but I think I've just had my half-Blogversary . . . because I know it's this month and we're now at the end of this month. I've been here a year and a half now, and I'm part of Blogland. It's just part of my life. I can't really fanthom my life without it. If I suddenly left . . . my life would kind of have no purpose. Without Blogland, I would be 500 times worse at cheering people up. I wouldn't be into awesome music. I would have read fewer awesome books. I would still be kind of scared of being myself. I would still think 'perfect' meant 'flawless'. I wouldn't know how to love people like I do know. I wouldn't be in the habit of asking people how they were. I would have done much less art and writing. Maybe no writing.
Thank you, Blogland. Blogland is half my life, and the other half of my life only exists like it does because of Blogland.
And I am one person. But the Bloglandians aren't one person. Blogland has transformed and helped many of us.
Blogland is magic.
Yeah?

Star Inkbright said...

I like killing off minor characters. Major ones . . . D:
@Eld: YOU EVIL PERSON.
@Fabi: Well, my friend who dislikes killing off characters is one of the most awesome people I have ever met. So if you're similar to her, that's gooooooood.
And also, imaginary world works different to this one. She's still alive there after you kill her off in the story, y'know? :/

HEY TAIA! :)

Beautiful dedication, Star. *hugs*

Thanks, btw, people. :)

#CFB9

Mary Contrary said...

@Fabi: *nods*
Just, what you have to do.
But it shows both strength and dedication to do it for the sake of the story, even where it's difficult for you. ^^

Hiya Star! *hugs* :)

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

*looks at Blaze asking Taia if tehy've met* *bites lip to stop self laughing because Hunter*

@Skulduggery Pleasant / Vile: Well, if we have, I don't remember it, either. xD
It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance! *offers a cookie* :)

#ChaseForBook9

@Fabi: I ditto Taia.

#ChaseForBookNine

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

heh. taia... my real names Eld.. like it is... here. i got lazy :p
*eats cookie, offers dino*
#CFB9

Mary Contrary said...

Hm.
I went to listen to Everyone Will Die to pick out the best quote I could find in there, (it felt fitting, I'll say) (Well, that, and I kinda love the song :P), but somehow got distracted and now it's playing a /completely different song/ and I'm suddenly urged to type out a load of random other lyrics quotes that aren't even relevant. :P

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

@Taia: Lyrics are awesome, so just do, if you want to, rhyme unintentional.

#ChaseForBookNine

Mary Contrary said...

Eld. *nods* *tries not to laugh because autocorrect. :P)
Awesome. :)
You're fine on Taia - I'm happy with just about any name, but everyone seems to go with Taia, which is awesome, because (apparently) I'm awesome (and I blame it on Blogland). Also, it's short-ish anyway, so doesn't need shortening, I guess. *nods*

*will probably stop rambling soon*

#ChaseForBook9

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

guys i wanna draw something! but i dunno wat to draw... cause im uncreative like that... HELP MEEEHHH

and dont say SKul, cause ive drawn him 8 times now... and yeah...

#cFB9

Mary Contrary said...

@Eld (continued :P): *accepts dino with gratitude*
... Dino being dinosaur? ^^

@Star: *laughs*
I might. Thanks :)

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

DRAW A PENGUIN SINGING SONGS FROM A BALCONY AS THE WORLD/CITY CRUMBLES AND COLLAPSES BEHIND HIM.

(There's nothing to 'get' there, just randomness :P)

(Except, now that I think about it, it's definitely close to the lyrics to Capital H, if you minus the penguin...)

#ChaseForBook9

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

yes. i give people miniaturized dinosaurs. because I'm a nice evil person.

SinGing songs from the balcony
As the city crumbles
Under the powers of an evil doctorrocketsciencemonster
With the ability to destroy the entire universe.

@Eld: WHOOP! *dinosaur enthusiast is pleased*
Thanks! :3
*pets dinosaur happily*

*Taiaceratops may suddenly appear, now :P)

#ChaseForBook9

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

y does everything seem to relate to SHERLOCK!!!

#cFB9

Mary Contrary said...

Ha, I have the same issues. I can never draw anything that clear (yet also unclear) of an idea. :P

Hm. Try putting a playlist or something on shuffle, and sketching something in the space of each song - just whatever comes to mind/hand - and if you come up with something you like, particularly, you've found something to draw, right? :)

[disclaimer: the above is not my own original idea, but is one that I've used previously, so, like, *nods*. :P]

#ChaseForBook9

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

ITS ALL GOOD!not really.. im drawing sad sruff...

#cfb9

Star Inkbright said...

Sorry for my distance. I was playlisting, and now I think I'm doing string art . . .

#ChaseForBookNine

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

#cfb9

Mary Contrary said...

@Eld: Provided you're drawing, I'd say it's still good, even if only a little. :)

@Star: No worries. :)

*frowns*
I need to find something to do.
I finished my Official They Might Be Giants (not)Life-Size
Paper Monster Truck Hearse last night...
Now I have nothing! D:

(But it still looks pretty cool.)

*may be trying to write, so could be distant*

*but might be less slow/typoey because switched to laptop*

#ChaseForBook9

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

Star Inkbright said...

@Eld: I bet you can. :)

Hope you find somehting to do, Taia. :)

@Blaze: Number one -

THART IS AMAZING OMGG WHY ON EARTH DO YOU SAY YOU CANNOT DRAW.

Number two - D: :'( :(.
SANDESSSSSSSSS.

#ChaseForBookNine

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

i was crying while drawing this guys :'P ;-;

but i cant. i honestly cant draw. look at it, his heads out of proportion and sherlocks way to big, and the rooftops on a strange angle, and the phone is all wrong, and shall i continue,

oh i may as well im almost finnished,

the ear is retarded, its not in the right way, the creses look annoying,

and the only thing im proud of is the hair...

but i can draw hair...

ish....

#Cfb9

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

gtg! merrrr ill leave u with this pic and change when i come back... BYE

#CFB9

Mary Contrary said...

@Eld: Wow. It's beautiful in its brutality (for lack of a better word).
The sadness - but the wows. ^^

(You certainly CAN draw. :P)

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

@Eld: *tilts head*
But, if you can find each of those mistakes, or things that aren't quite perfect, then you can also see how you could improve it, and, in doing so, you are learning.
Every fault is a rock around which you can begin the winding of a whole string of improvement.

(That said, I still think it's brilliant. :P)

(And the fact that it can make sadness in the feels of other people is also an incredible thing - that it has the power to change the way a person thinks/feels at a time. That's pretty amazing, no?)

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

* 'perfect' also for lack of a better word. 'Satisfactory to your view' is the general implication (kind of), anyway.

Bye Eld!
Thank you for sharing!
And, 't'was very nice to be meeting you. :)

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

:( FOURS BLAZE!

I guess I might as well say I'm going. Going to go in under ten minutes - my friend's picking me up . . . Sorry.

#ChaseForBookNine

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

BACK! for a bit:p

Aww. thx Taia... and i guess your kinda right. ill have to try the same again another day, and try improve it slowly...

:p

bye star

z#cfb9

Mary Contrary said...

Okay, Star. ^^

Welcome back, Eld! :)
That's the spirit! :P

It wouldn't necessarily have to be the same thing, but I guess that's up to you. :)

#ChaseForBook9

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

true true...
ill change my pic... brb

#cfb9

Mary Contrary said...

Okay. :)
I might switch mine back to the Ravenstag...
I don't recognise me with the Odd-Little-Val picture.
That, and what I'm writing involves dream-y-haunting-ness, a little, so Swiggity Swag the Nightmare Stag is kind of fitting, for me. :P

#ChaseForBook9

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

...i need to kill a character now...

...

...

...

...

...

Who to kill...

#cfb9

How about making somebody to kill?

Like, raising a pig for slaughter. That kind of thing. :P

#ChaseForBook9 ^^

It was being awkward, so I don't know if I succeeded in changing it... :P

Duck said...

I NEED A NEW BOOK TO READ!

ANY SUGGESTIONS?

#ChaseForBook9

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

HEY DUCK!

read Sherlock Holmes.

#Cfb9

Duck said...

I HAD the compete Sherlock series on my mum's kindle and then she got rid of that. But I need a smaller book. Something casual so in a months time I'll be done in time for LSODM.

Any more suggestions?

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

Hi Duck!

Hm. Have you read the Chaos Walking trilogy?
The Knife of Never Letting Go; The Ask and the Answer; Monsters of Men.

Or, Star had a suggestion, yesterday, I think.
"Fallen Star" series, by Jessica -something, I think.
She said it's free on iBooks, too. Again, I think. :P

#ChaseForBook9

Duck said...

I read The Knife of Never Letting Go and then got halfway through The Ask and the Answer.

I think I stopped because of TMS so... a may as well start reading it again.

THANK YOU TAIA!!!!!!

NOW I'M GOING TO GO READ!!!

BON VOAGE BLOGLANDIANS!!!!

#ChaseForBook9

Duck said...

BlogLANDYans*

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

YOU'RE WELCOME, DUCK!!! :P

BUT YAY, BECAUSE CHAOS WALKING! :)

They might be my favourite books I've read, actually.
Landy never made me cry (but I haven't read KotW or TMS yet. And accidental-I-swear-it-wasn't-my-fault spoilers for TMS have made me worry, I guess... :P), but Patrick Ness made me cry on a few occasions throughout the books.
And Ness taught me a LOT in those books, and they helped me too catch things that I needed to catch.

But, that said, Derek brought me Blogland, and that's been over-two-years with some of the most awesome people in existence, who've also helped me immensely, of course, so I guess I owe Derek & SP some points for that... :P

#ChaseForBook9

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

George had always been one for adventuring. I remember when we were small, no older than 9; we would always manage to find the smallest places, and squeeze into them. Our bodies touching in the tightly packed areas. He would smile at me, and I would smile back, and there would be no better place to hide.

Once I remember when I got a cut on his knee, as we crawled out of a particularly stony area. Blood started to trickle down my leg, and I had let out a small whimper. he went to run to the house, maybe get one of our parents, or an older sibling. But I wouldn't let him leave my side, so he didn't. He had to pick me up, and he carried me, bundled in his arms, all the way back to the house.

I had felt safe in his arms. And now I hoped he felt safe in mine. Because now he was leaving. and there was nothing i could do. I had to sit there, and hold George close. Hold him in my long arms, they shook constantly as i tried to support the weight of both of us. I could feel it start to rain, and normally I would have flipped. But i didn't, I tried to stay strong for George, and I could see it in his dying eyes. I could SEE how much it was hurting him, and I wish he knew how much it was hurting me.

His hair started to plaster in his face, and mine did the same. Rain mixed with my tears, both ending up landing on the dying man; MY dying man. I gave him a weak half-smile, and he failed to return it. But that didn't matter to me.

I squeezed his hand, and his own gentle touch tried to return it. Seconds passed like hours as I stared into his deep green glazing eyes.

My heart throbbed twice as hard, as if beating for him as well. He started to close his eyes, and I bent in, stroking his for head to try keep them as open and alive as before.

I didn't hear his last breath, and i didn't feel his last pulse. I just knew they had happened at a time that was too late to do anything about it. I buried myself onto his chest, which didn't give a usual rise and fall. It still felt warm, but i knew that would pass. And I lie there, my mind losing all its joy. Knowing that life will never be the same.

Mary Contrary said...

*laughs*

It's awesome! :3

Do you have a daily-death-scene practice, or is it just instinct? :P

I don't write death scenes much. Or ever. I don't read a lot of 'em either, really. Near death scenes, maybe. But that was GOOD. :3

Perhaps I need to read more death scenes...

Which is an odd goal to have, in itself.

^^

*rolls back to writing and distantness*

#ChaseForBook9

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

i hope you get a good death scene^_^

#cfb9

Mary Contrary said...

@Zaf: Never trust your character with an evil, egotistical writer with murderous-fiction tendencies. :P

Perhaps he'll give you a dignified death, at least. Something dramatic and admirable.

On the the other hand, he could just have you choke on a teaspoon...

Sorry.

#ChaseForBook9

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

i kill characters on the odd occasio *cough* three times a week *cough*

no no i dont have the time to do that. I just like killing characters. (yes i know that that sounds really murderous, I AM NOT A MURDER! UNLESS YOU COUNT CHARACTERS then im a... serial killer... i think... NO im a...one of those killers that gets close to people then kills them... whats the word... i dunno...)

Ebony Law said...

Is this the post we're using?

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

YES CAN YOU IMAGINE!!

Zaf tossed her/his head backwards and fowards. as if something large was stuck in her/his throat. A short man stepped foward, running up to her/his back, and hitting in between the shoulder blades,as if trying to help the grand mage/elder (is that right?) to cough it up. The attempts however were failed, and Zaf's face turned a bright blue, as the walls around her/him spun.

in moments she/he was out, lying dead on the ground.

One of the mages bent down to his/her side. letting his power of x0ray vision he looked into the elders/grand mages throat. He turned to the rest of the mages who sat against the wall horrfied.

"Zaf died from swallowing a teaspoon." He announced. the room fell silent in mourn.


IM SORRY I COULDNT RESIST. AND SRY ZAF IM NOT SURE OF UR OCUPATION(SRY!) OR YOUR GENDER BECAUSE IM LAZY AND WOULD FEEL BAD IF I GOT IT WRONG!!

#CFB9

Ebony Law said...

Jesus, you guys definitely ate through the other posts. Was there a lot of Blogland battles again?

Mary Contrary said...

@Eld: *laughs*
If it's any consolation, I'm not much better off.
I don't kill characters in my mind, but watching NBCHannibal I completely skipped the 'disgusted by the "let's kill people and feed them to my dinner guests" part', and went straight to the 'laughing manically at the cannibal puns and oblivious diners' part.
That was worrying. :P

#ChaseForBook9

Ebony Law said...

Zaf's a girl. And BELIEVE ME, I always mistake her for a male. I'm not calling her masculine, I'm saying Zafira is kind of a masculine name.

Ebony Law said...

Can someone notice me or am I going to have to kill an animal? Or say One Direction sucks? The latter usually works better.

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

XD IM NOT ALONE. anywho ill brb i gtg for a bit1 bbs

killing an animal would be nice.

still GTG BYE

@Dwyer: Hello! I don't think we've met (?).
If we have, my apologies *offers a cookie* - If we haven't, it's (probably) nice to meet you! *offers a cookie*

Well,
A) I think a lot of roleplay's been going on - that could take up a lot of comments.
And,
B) A few posts were already filled right up. ^^

Eventually, somebody's probably going to have to make a new overflow blog.
Or, just, reintroduce the old one...

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

@Dwyer: Hm. Saying One Direction sucks might get you attention, but not necessarily for the right reasons, and it's not necessarily true. :P
I'm not a fan of them, but I respect that they make music, and make other people feel good and come together and whatnot.
I respect them, and their fans, even if they don't appeal to me, personally.

I know, you were probably joking, but it annoys me a little when people are, like, targeted, for what they enjoy. Sorry. But, yeah. :)

I don't think I could live in a biig city, myself.
I was in London last week, and as much as there were things that maybe I like, there are certain things I don't think I, or my mind, could handle very well.

Like, crossing the road at the same place/time as fifty other people. And walking down a street where it seems that everybody else is going the opposite way, and you can't keep from being walked into.
Or being met a lightspeed bicycle every time you touch foot off the pavement.
And the damn travel card things not actually working, ever. :P

That's probably just me, though. :P
For some, it's probably just right. Or maybe it just takes getting used to. I don't know. :)

Because, every time I read it my mind tries to say it but is not sure how to go about it, exactly. :)


*glares at writing*
I can't get any further. Don't know what needs to happen, to get to the main focus, here... :/

Javier...*kisses cheek*

Mary Contrary said...

@Eld: *nods* I have friends who love it there, but, IDK. I've been a couple of times, years ago. But I just couldn't get comfortable last week.

That may have also been something to do with the weather, mind...

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

Kill someone.

#CFB9

Mary Contrary said...

Still, if you want to go and you like it then I say good for you! :) ^^


Hm? Oh, well there're not any people around to kill, except myself, and that kind of defeats the object.
I MAY kill a pterodactyl, towards the end of the thing, but I'm still debating what's gonna happen about that... :P

Wbd - thinking.


#ChaseForBook9

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

Kill a randol non related object. Like a spoon.

#CFB9

Mary Contrary said...

*laughs*

Don't have a spoon, either.
I could kill a rock. In frustration.
That could work.
Thanks! :)

#ChaseForBook9

Eldritch Blaze the Prince of Plants said...

Kill the rock!

See im helpful in times of writers block. Just kill something! DRAMATCALY!

@Eld: It's advice I will commit to memory. Thank you. :)

Just lemme know if Coco and Ari go on their date yet

*rolls eyes* I am still not feeling well

Mary Contrary said...

Gaddamnit. I killed the rocks, and now I'm bloody stuck again. xD

*grumbles*

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Um. Yes.

And they aren't going on their date until the whole demon thing is over

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Okay Adra *shakes head* I think I need to lay down
Javier: sleep Zaf...sleep. You look weak

I must go now so ill be back when i get wifi

Noelle said...

Taia that "um...yes" was for you, what are you doing? Lol

Mary Contrary said...

*laughs*

Oh, sorry. :P

I'm trying to /write/.

And I had some mini block, and Eld told my to kill something. So I had my character kill some rocks, all frustrated-y. And that worked, and I was all 'Yay!'-y, But then I did that and now I don't know what to write again. :P

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

But I think I'm okay, now.

Except that my facts may be wrong, because I don't know how pterodactyls hunt, see. :P


Also: IT'S RAINING. :)

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Oh. Character deaths work better for me...

Mary Contrary said...

*nods*
But my character's alone, so I had to kill something inanimate, and the rocks were there, so *shrugs* :P

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*nods* Solid.

*pokes*

Mary Contrary said...

*pokes back* Liquid. :P

Currently, I'm wondering whether to try my chances with the dinosaur, or just plummet to my death instead.
I always forget how fun writing is. :P

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

DINOSAUR

Mary Contrary said...

" And I’m screaming in silence, until I realise that’s a stupid idea, because it’s gripping tighter and tighter around my chest and if I can’t get out I’m not going to be able to breathe, and wasting my oxygen on soundless screams will get me nowhere. My stupid mouth shuts and my hands go to its talons and try to prise them open, but its muscles are set and I can’t even shift them. So I panic and start punching them, though I know it’ll do nothing to set me free, but I’m desperate, and then suddenly, I’m not. Because I’ve looked down and we’ve passed the edge of the cliff, so there’s only me and the air and an impossible dinosaur who wants to eat me.
Which is not an ideal situation.
I take a deep breath, and go back to screaming. "


But how to I get out of /that/ mess? :P ^^

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

You pretend to be a dinosaur

Mary Contrary said...

Me: ROOOOOOAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRR.

Pterodactyl: CRRRROOOOOOOOOAAAAAARRRRRR!!!!


Me: eep.

Pterodactyl: ... *noms*

Like that? :P

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Lol. Pretend to be a baby dinosaur

Mary Contrary said...

*laughs*

Hm. Maybe. If I can make that work...
Thanks, in any case. :) ^^

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*laughs* That is what I would do

Mary Contrary said...

*laughs* If it were actually me, I probably would, too.
Or, like, pass out. I'd probably do that. :P

I'm writing the 'The Island' challenge that I missed, see. Just, because I needed something to write, and I realised that I never did it.

Oh.
BUt I already know how the NEXT part, at least for Red and I, began. With a tidal wave (Or, that happened at some point during out encounter, anyway). So I can use that to my advantage... :3
Yay!

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Oh my lord the ISLAND.

OH MY LORD

FLASHBACK

Mary Contrary said...

*grins*

The Island was probably the best thing to get me writing that I've ever been a part of. Which is why it seems stupid to leave that third challenge without any words to it, from me. :)

I was pleasantly murdered by Red, in the last challenge. She tore my stomach open with a stick.
Fun times.
I think we really bonded, during that write-off.

:P

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Oh my god.

Yeah. Bonded. Right. Fun.

I miss that :P

Mmhm. :P

It's a drought out here.

WOOOHOOO! I'm glad I took horseback riding lessons because it is just as easy for a dinosaur :3

Mary Contrary said...
