Some of you may have heard that a copy or two of LSODM have been sold, despite the embargo. This is, unfortunately, true.
Eight copies were mistakenly sent out ahead of schedule, to the big Forbidden Planet store in London. All eight were immediately sold. No one at Forbidden Planet is to blame, and no one who bought a copy is to blame.
I will only ask those who DID buy a copy to keep it to themselves. I'm asking them not to post spoilers and not to even HINT at anything that happens. I'm pretty confident nothing will leak, because you guys are all really good about this sort of thing, but I need to make sure.
And also, for those eight people out there who now own a copy... I hope you enjoy it.

#ChaseForBook9
It's okay Zaf, they're only memories.
#ChaseForBook9
What memories? What happened?
#ChaseForBook9
Hello all.
Hi Dragona! How are you?
#ChaseForBook9
Hey Dragona.
#ChaseForBook9
I'm fine thanks Rhydian. How are you?
And hey Trip. Sorry I left last night before we fully started our epic dual. ^^
Hey Edward. ^^
I'm good Dragona!
#ChaseForBook9
And to those who aren't aware, yesterday I posted another part of my mass effect fanfiction... if there's anyone who is on who reads it. ^^
OW.
Owowowow-
Why are there rose thorns on the floor? -.-
*pulls one out of her foot, scowling*
@Rhydian: Hang on, internets. :P
Oh, it's one of those outdoor ed. centre kind of places?
I've been to a couple of those in the past - but not that one in particular. ^^
#ChaseForBook9
Niccolo....*buries face in hands* oh god no.
Meh, it would have been exactly as I said, a really long stalemate until you ran away because that's your only move I can't do.
#ChaseForBook9
I wish I had played Mass Effect for longer today, but I was rather happy with what I accomplished. HOWEVER I pressed the wrong button and accidentally confessed a love of a random female alien. WHICH I don't think is a good thing. But oh well.
That's what it is Taia!
#ChaseForBook9
Zaf, you're in a memory, snap out of it! *clicks fingers and an ear splitting boom is heard across blogland, covers everyone bit Zaf's ears in sound proof energy bubbles*
#ChaseForBook9
Brb i wanna shower
*screams* WHAT THE HELL?!
Now brb
Trip, Oh, I don't know. The Dark Shadow would have won eventually - considering he can take control of people, command them, make them have a sudden increase in anger and hate. But as you said I couldn't have said assured hits. But I guess The Dark Shadow could be a tad more powerful - but I don't know due to the fact I don't know much about your powers. I just know he's one of the most powerful things I've ever created.
Hey Dragona. :)
*laughs* What did the alien say? :P
@Rhydian: It sounds like an awesome idea, then. :) ^^
#ChaseForBook9
rhydian, have yoyu finished part one of rca yet?
Well I went to talk to Tali (the alien) about some shield upgrades for my ship. Because otherwise I'll probably be blown to pieces before I enter the suicide mission (the nickname for the final mission on ME2). But then she said something along the lines of what I said but first and then I pressed the wrong button and she seemed shocked but was pleased so I don't actually know.
Yeah. If there was a school for sorcerers I didn't think it should be like a huge Hogwarts type thing.
#ChaseForBook9
I dunno, I think Trip could've made it flee, tbh.
#ChaseForBook9
No Ed. It got deleted. And now I have to rewrite it. And my sis is on the computer.
#ChaseForBook9
xD
@Rydian: *nods* Good idea. More original too, I guess. :) ^^
Wbd
#ChaseForBook9
AND as I was just casually sending probes to a planet to retrieve resources to upgrade my ship, there was like an anomalous distress signal so I located it. Then I landed and had to explore a mine that I THOUGHT was going to be empty - but it ended up being full of Husks (like zombies which are a combination of organic and synthetic substances), and I had to kill them all. There was about a hundred or so and there was only three in my team. BUT I managed to get out alive. Due to my epicness. And the fact I was shooting them all, but that isn't important.
rhydian@ oh, my comment i left didnt say my discipline but it is explained on my profile
:P
#ChaseForBook9
I know Ed.
#ChaseForBook9
I think a school of sorcerers would be more modern. State of the art technology and simulators - like there would be a room where teams could fight against each other but it'd all be simulated. And they could also work together to kill waves of enemies and try to accomplish different tasks, from killing targets to disarming bombs and trying to hold a certain area for a certain amount of time.
And if you would get shot you'd be electrocuted or something irl.
I also think they'd learn things about how to disarm bombs and crack safes and how to use weapons and how to master their powers. They would also have to do certain tasks like getting thrown out of a plane without a parachute (for those who are capable of surviving it).
That's just my general feeling of it - a tough but rewarding school for powerful teenagers.
Hi.
Hey Brave! How are you?
Dragona, did yo just mix H.I.V.E with Charles Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters?
#ChaseForBook9
Everyone forgets that these sorcerer teenagers still need to learn maths and stuff not just Magical things.
#ChaseForBook9
Hi Brave.
#ChaseForBook9
Hi Brave! How are you?
#ChaseForBook9
@Dragona: It doesn't all have to be fighting, necessarily. Psychics, medical-y-things, science magic. I'd have those put in somewhere, too. ^^
Hey Brave. :)
#ChaseForBook9
Brave! Hey :)
it should be like hogwarts i think
Well no, not on purpose. But I think that is what it would be like. The simulators could be even run by someone who could make someone have hallucinations - and take all the students to like a dream world where they'd fight.
And I agree with the maths thing too. But I think most of it would be teaching them how to survive battles and what to do in certain situations, as that'd be keeping them alive. Maths wouldn't. ^^
IKR Rhydian. I was with my freinds, and we were all laughing about how everyone who went to Hogwarts must have been on like year 8 maths and year 8 english for the rest of their lives. Or maybe less!
Hello. Me name Harry Potter. Me chosen one.
#ChaseForBook9
But you still need maths. Not all sorcerers grow up to fight each other.
#ChaseForBook9
Well they also need to be taught the laws. Because don't forget Zaf's daughter is going.
On a side note Rhydian if you want to use Zaf or Javier you may.
But because it'd house some very powerful people it'd have to be hidden. Like underground or in a tiny dimension or on a HUGE plane or something like that. Something easy to defend. Because if someone sought to kidnap one of the more powerful students they would have to have some sort of protection, other than weaponry and armour.
Maybe on top of a mountain could work too.
Thanks Zaf! May I mention that you and Javier wanna put Olivia's name on a waiting list?
#ChaseForBook9
Well duh I think the kids were taught at home. So I believe that they had more knowlede then year 8
I have a location Dragona. Thanks for your ideas anyway!
#ChaseForBook9
Yes you may. And Olivia can be older then she is on Blogland its okay. And if you want Javier to go to the school to help he can go either of my characters. Doesnt matter.
kk Rhydian. ^^
Oh, btw, I think lessons about stealth would be important too. You never know when you might need it. ^^
Omg I need an empath character.
S/he may turn into Will Graham, but I don't care. I need to make an empathic OC at some point.
*scribbles that down on a post-it note*
@Rhydian: *nods* :)
@Dragona: *nods* That makes sense, but not all of them would want to use their magic for battle/survival at all. *shrugs* I guess it all fits in.^^
#ChaseForBook9
rhydian, do you need people to be teachers?
Thanks Zaf! Your a big help!
#ChaseForBook9
Dragona, I think you're thinking too big. Rhydian's idea is just a regular shcool, for magical kids. So maths, english, sceince, history etc with magical stuff on the side.
#ChaseForBook9
Not really Ed. I was going to make them up.
#ChaseForBook9
@Zaf: I don't think Harry was taught at home. :P ^^
#ChaseForBook9
Meh, maybe I am thinking too big. ^^
I'm a teacher. Too old to be a student.
#ChaseForBook9
Also, Trip taught before, he has prior experience.
#ChaseForBook9
And Adra's an Academic.
#ChaseForBook9
Hey, is this like a coffee shop fanfic? Like, a 'What If?' Universe?
#ChaseForBook9
i used to teach magic combat
In a way yes Trip.
#ChaseForBook9
My character has had previous experience too, but admittedly not much.
He killed his teacher in the middle of an exam by accident - he was concentrating on a light above him and he accidentally made it explode with his telekinetic powers. He managed to slow time - again by accident - and fix it back together but it cracked and killed his teacher.
Then he escaped from an Apatonynchus with help from Skulduggery and Valkyrie.
Sozzy i poofed.
My character being a student.
Oh, Rhydian, did I say I'd get you an OC for the RCA?
*frowns*
Oh, well I think I need to do one for Fabi anyway. Though they'll be different. Maybe different characters, even. Idk. :P
Okay, wbd, *stops tidying things* I'll be contemplating characters, now. :p
#ChaseForBook9
If it was actually Dragona who I was talking about I'd say he'd have a lot of experience. He's 83 years old - looks 20, and ever since he was five he's had nothing BUT experience. His parents were killed in front of him by a vampire and he ran away and was trained.
THEN he threw a zombie out of a plane who injured him. And he killed the vampire by making him fall off a building. Then he's fought some indestructible people, his brother, MORE indestructible people and now he's preparing to get sent back in time.
Lots of experience :P
You did Taia.
#ChaseForBook9
Well, I don't know where to begin with Trip's experience of /that/ kind. I meant teaching experience.
#ChaseForBook9
Dragona's teaching experience is well... nil. ^^
Welcome back Brave!
Gtg now. BYE!
#ChaseForBook9
Bye Rhydian!
#ChaseForBook9
Hey babes ;D
I'm so sorry I disappeared! I'm volunteering at a library atm :P
Who's still here?
#chaseforbook9
(I'll be back soon btw)
#ChaseForBook9
I'm still here. Hey Adra!
#ChaseForBook9
KEEP WRIING RHYDIAN
*Throws pickle at Dragona*
#ChaseForBook9
hello adra
Oh dear. My laptop is making uncontrollable Reaper noises again after I opened the soundboard.
*catches pickle and eats it in a sandwich with some cheese, then continues throwing cheese*
*catches cheese, cuts it up, puts it in a toasted bagel with some ham and some cucumber, eats it*
#ChaseForBook9
Hai people.
*eats a skulcake*
Hey Adra
Javier: Adra. *goes by Zaf* I can't see. Damn.
Javier? Why can't you see?
#ChaseForBook9
Javier: Saturday night I tried to kill Adra and so Aretha came after me ad I kind of stabbed her so she tried to kill me and she scratched my eyes. I really miss seeing. I can't see Zafira then.
Why did you try to kill Adra?
#ChaseForBook9
Javier: she dyed my hair pink
Hi Reqium!
Hey Requim.
So you tried to kill her? That's a bit of an overreaction.
#ChaseForBook9
hello requiem
Hey, Zafira, Trip, Edward!
Who tried to kill who?
Javier tried to kill Adra.
#ChaseForBook9
Sorry, poof'd
*hugs all appearees and disappearees* :P
#ChaseForBook9
Javier tried to kill Adra then he tried to kill Aretha
Javier: yeah. And now I'm stuck blind relying on Zaf to guide me.
Hi Requiem
And it was an overreaction
*throws pieces of edam at everyone*
Oooh! Edam! *eats it*
#ChaseForBook9
You deserved it, Javier.
edam *eats*
Javier: *sighs* Nobody can help me can they?
Jackrow could.
#ChaseForBook9
I could.
But I won't.
I'm so distant guys.
doctor nye could javier.
Javier: if anyone wants to then please do so. I wish I could see because I miss seeing and seeing Alexis or Olivia. Plus I feel vulenetable.
I think that's the issue. Jackrow has a code of conduct. If he thinks you aren't worth or worthy of healing, he won't do it. And, as you lost your vision through being an over reactive spoilsport, I'd say he'd give you a big old no.
#ChaseForBook9
I think I killed Doctor Nye last night. A stab to the stomach and then through its head.
Bye, dinner or something.
#ChaseForBook9
Javier: greaf. Joy. I'm blind. *sighs irritably and lays head against Zaf*
Well, at least it was only 8 copies.
I STILL HAVEN'T GOTTEN TMS, AND I DON'T KNOW IF MOM ORDERED IT OR NOT! D: SHE SAID SHE WOULD BUT I THINK SHE FORGOT.
#ChaseForBook9
Bye Trip! *hugs Javier* Hush. I'll help you *kisses*
hang on javier, ill get nye
Bye trip!
*hums*
adra, could you get doctor nye please
Adra, so what time do you get out of school?
Javier: fine
Poof'd again. :P
Wbd/msd.
#ChaseForBook9
I'm out now...
And no, I will not I DONT KNOW THINGS
I'm back!
#ChaseForBook9
...Rhyd...
Hi Ed! Hi Adra! How are you both?
#ChaseForBook9
fine thanks
Ahhhh I'm so distant right now!
need to go shopping then I'll be on properly! :P
#chaseforbook9
Alright. You?
Good to hear Ed! Okay Lia!
#ChaseForBook9
I'm good Adra! Wait a sec...my sis is finally off the computer! I will now write he chapter!!!! Yayayay!
#ChaseForBook9
Alexis: *is in bed playing with Olivia* baby! Hey baby! You gonna crawl soon? Yes I want you to crawl! (Omg when i decide to age her to 2 or 3 it'll be fun!)
Brb. Switching to the computer
#ChaseForBook9
Yeah CHU better wrote, boy.
*nods*
*catches the cheese from twenty feet away, giving Dragona a thumbs up*
Adra you're crazy!
Back. Wbd. Writing! The first chapter should be up in the next hour! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think I'm more excited than all of you, lol.
#ChaseForBook9
guys, did you catch nye yesterday
No why?
Alexis; Olivia what are you doing? OMG SHE IS CRAWLING!
because that means he escaped again
YAY! Olivia's crawling! She's growing up so fast...*cries* Writing now.
#ChaseForBook9
i'm so mad with myself i have been so distant.
crawling
Olivia: *crawls away from Alexis*
Alexis: *grabs* oh Olivia *grins* I can't wait until you can walk and talk! *tickles her chin* Crazy sis
Olivia: *giggles trying to crawl away*
Alexis: hey I'm too weak to chase you silly!
Good for Olivia.
That's okay brave.
GO RHYDIAN
Alexis: Aunt Adra! Look Olivia is crawling! *calls from treehouse*
She's crawling?! *shadow walks up with Javier*
Quick question...Should I start the story with me/Rhydian with his/my friends having a party for his last night at home or should it just start of with me/him getting on the couch?
#ChaseForBook9
shes crawling. in a treehouse where she could fall
No its Alexis's room so the stairs down wont be there
Probably a short intro from the party...
*smiles* Awesome, Alexis
Not here. Just saying, normally, a child of Olivia's age wouldn't really even be able of deliberate movement.
They really do grow up so fast.
#ChaseForBook9
Ok i'LL BRB.
PARTY
Okay, shower time.
#ChaseForBook9
Thanks you Adra. Now I shall write!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yay Olivia! Can't wait for you to talk! Your so cute!
#ChaseForBook9
begin with a party
Yeah, party.
#ChaseForBook9
*waves to Trip*
*pours herself a shot of vodka
*sees Olivia crawling* so you decided to crawl, Olivia? *sits on floor* come here to Mommy.
Olivia: *starts crawling to Daddy*
Javier sit down.
Javier: *sits and as soon as Olivia hits into him he grabs her* I got Olivia yes I do!
Thank you all! This is going to be very interesting to write. My friends are INSANE!! Well one is. The other is sane
ChaseForBook9
(I know I just kinda time warped because I wanted to have her crawling. Because if I stayed realistic to the dot it wouldnt be much fun. )
PARTTYYYYYYYYYY
Don't time warp it too much Zaf. Let's make the most of a baby in Blogland!
#ChaseForBook9
get olivia a pet
I'm not! She's gonna be crawling for a while but hey what fun is a baby in Blogland if she can't do anything to annoy Bloglandians?
Pets are a handful... *downs the shot, pouring another*
Good point Zaf! Sorry if I annoyed/offended you!
#ChaseForBook9
Not yet Edward she's too young. *picks Olivia up* Alexis want me to get you anything?
Alexis: cider!
Okay *goes down to the bar* Hey Adra.
OMG, we've got a baby in Blogland? How cute! :)
Um, I just had to say that, sry^^
Oh, god, Rhydian. I think I've pretty much got a rough OC going. Do you want anything now, or can you handle without?
If it's easier to just exclude me, at least for the time being... I don't know, it's your story.
I can give you some details, if there's anything you'd want, basically. I think. :P
#ChaseForBook9
the bars open?
You didnt offend me Rhydian.
Mith, yes we do. Olivia is my daughter (not irl)
Good Zaf! Taia if you want to give me the details for the OC then sure! GIMME!!! Can you put them in a comment on my blog please? I'm a little distant since I'm writing.
#ChaseForBook9
Ohhh! Congratulations, Zaf! :)
Sure. :3 ^^
#ChaseForBook9
Well, the bar is open now...
*gets two ciders* Pay up
bACK.
here *hands money and takes a cider*
AAAH WHY DID YOU DELETE???
*gives Adra the money* thanks.
Olivia: *reaches for Aunt Adra*
*stares at Olivia, flinching* Um...
*puts the money in the safe*
*looks at the money in the safe*
*glares at Edward* Your eyes are larger than your brain- DONT make me rip them out
*backs away* ok then
Theres a Bar now. *Walks into bar and orders a glass of water* Yeah ok. Lets get something strait. Irl i hate every type of juice and fizzy drink I ONLY i really ONLY drink milk and water. I know its weird but i do.
GO ADRA!! *high fives*
#ChaseForBook9
NONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
#ChaseForBook9
*high fives* Why?? *laughs*
DED
DED
DED
DED
DED
I have no idea what to ded to...Give me a moment whilst I think.
#ChaseForBook9
She doesnt bite, Adra. *takes cider and goes to Alexis*
Alexis: thanks! *drinks happily*
*goes back outside with Olivia and lets her crawl*
Any suggestions?
#ChaseForBook9
Alexis; Ded to Coco! Niccolo!
You know Adra, this is /my/ bar.
It's odd how so often, you take on my role, you're essentially unofficial, unlicensed, unpaid co-owner.
#ChaseForBook9
I know she won't bite
Don't do it, Rhyd.
Well you aren't here sometimes! And usually when I go and get myself a drink, people follow! I take pity on them!
Who wants to ded?!
#ChaseForBook9
Olivia: *crawls to Trip*
Trip she's the girl what do you expect?
i just realised that is the first time i paid for a drink
