HEY RHYDIAN! :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Mary Contrary said...

@Star: I get exactly what you mean.
People tell me my brain is the most disorganised one they know, because I always have to talk or write things in completely illogical orders to get them to make sense on words. :P
Not that you're disorganised, but that's the main cause for me. :P

Also, song ded sounds good.
Whatever you do will rule, I'm sure.

And: Adra has a point, actually. I dedded to Harrison Ford based pseudonyms and space cats, a day or so ago. :P

#ChaseForBook9

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Back. Hi Star! Hi Taia! Hi Adra! Have I already said hi to you all? No matter. Hi anyway!

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

@Star: OH, that sounds good. :)

(Ignore you? NEVER! *dances to symbolise her non-ignorance which doesn't even make sense but still* :P)

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

@Taia: IT WILL NOT RULE.

I DO NOT WANT IT TO RULE.

"If you're not a servant you'll be struck to the ground."

I AM A SERVANT. *nods*

(That quote was from an Avenged Sevenfold song called Beast and the Harlot, which is about the city of Babylon. A7X seem to have multiple songs which make you want to go and flick through your Bible. It's rather good adverising. :P)

Sorry. Ranting.

Hi Death!

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

OH MY GOSH, I GO AND FORGET TO REPLY.

I BLAME A7X.

And, your brain sounds awesome. :) This is partially irrelevant, but Hunter stores all his memories on imaginary paper in imaginary boxes in an imaginary room in his head, and . . . and weird brains are cool. Beacuse Hunter has a weird brain. But you knew that anyway.
Look, I don't have a clue what I'm saying, or what I was trying to say, or why I thought it would be a good idea to say it, so I'm just going to shut up now, and you can pretend I said something awesome. :P

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

Heya Rhyd! How's Thanos? Treating him well? Good, good.

Star Inkbright said...

DEATH! :)

@Rhydian: Randomly saying hi to people is good. It reminds them they exist. :)
Because it's easy to forget, you know. *nods wisely*

#ChaseForBookNine

Mary Contrary said...

@Star: *laughs* it'll be good. That's my point. :)


Ugh I have random song lyrics appearing in my head and it's all so strange :P
Currently:

I'm barely off the medication
And now the walls are closing in
I can't breathe
And I can't fight
Will you be my alibi?
Tell the men I truly try?

Which isn't relevant to anythinggggg.

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Hai Death!

Mary Contrary said...

Death?
*hugs*

#ChaseForBook9

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

@Adra: Thanos is trapped in the afterlife. And I'm mourning River. Thanos killed him.

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

@Taia: It does make sense, we're just too dumb to comprehend the sense. No offense intended. Or maybe offense was intended and I'm actually an evil person who's going to kill you all as soon as I find out where you live, and I'm just pretending to be a bubble train who was a bubble caterpillar who was a bubble butterfly who is dead who used to be alive who exists (maybe).

. . . You know, I'm not sure my ehad's working today. It's just telling my fingers a load of rubbisha nd my fingers are typing a load of rubbish beacuse they're dumb little servants who won't be struck to the ground, and my eyes are looking at the screen at what my fingers are typin g and going WHAT THE HELL. And I'm pointing out that there is no i in teamwqork but there is an eye in menagerie. And, um, yeah.

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

Wait- he's what?

Do you think he'll stay the for long? Because, you know, he goes there in a regular basis

Star Inkbright said...

@Rhydian: :(

It's important to remember that whist it is sad he died, we should be glad that he ived and died rather than never lived at all.

@Taia: I LIKE RANOMD SONG LYRICS. :) So don't stress.

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

. . . Anddddddddd I think I have to go now. :(

Bbl.

Fours.

#ChaseForBookNine

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I have no idea Adra. Bit busy planning a funeral for River without any past versions of River knowing. And I go on holiday In three weeks. So I haven't given Thanos much thought to be honest.

#ChaseForBook9

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Bye Star!

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

@Star: *laughs* *hugs*
I don't care if you're some creep who actually wants to kill me - you help make my days better. *hugs*
*did not just glance at the window because paranoia :P*

Uh, I hope your head finds the ability to work as it does usually, soon, then. :P




AAaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh- BRB

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*nods* you focus on River- we can handle Thanos.

Bye Star!
Hello Sherlock

Edward Fletcher said...

hey adra, what happened since i left?

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Hiya Dalek!

Adra can you teach me alchemy? It seems a lot cooler then Elemental magic

#ChaseForBook9

Edward Fletcher said...

hello rhydian

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

*than

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Alchemy?

First off, how old are you again?

And Niccolo forgot everything... Nothing else really besides that,

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I'm fourteen. Does age matter?

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Hmm... It all depended on whether or not you. Had pledged to a magic or not. In all truth, as much as alchemy sounds like fun, it isnt. It's a chore. A burden. If you are ready to spend years even decades of your life dedicated to fixing yourself and eventually- things around you... You had better prepare yourself.

Mary Contrary said...

Back. And my face is still attached, so we're A-OK.
Aw, bye Star!
Hi Sherlock!

#ChaseForBook9

Edward Fletcher said...

did he even forget all of the names?

Edward Fletcher said...

hello taia

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I'd say I'm prepared. What do you mean, fixing myself and things around me?

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Yes, he has forgotten everything. He thinks that he is 17 years old. *bites her lip*

And Rhydian, to be an alchemist you must first learn yourself- your energy before you can even think about things around you. You have to learn how to balance yourself, and it is all about bringing yourself to that elevated state if mind and being in sync with the life around you- to be part of it. Like a song.

Edward Fletcher said...

and theres no way he will ever remember?

Mary Contrary said...

Wbd - working on an OC. :)
I think I've almost got a /name/ covered! :D

#ChaseForBook9

Edward Fletcher said...

whats the name taia?

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

0_0 what? Sorry Adra you kinda lost me...Try to simplify it if you can. How do I balance myself and be a part of life around me?

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

We're still working on it, actually. Aretha has an idea

azkn said...

YES YES YES I'LL BE IN LONDON FOR THE SIGNINGS!!!
now a quick question: how many books can I request from Derek to sign? You see, I'm not from the UK, I'll be on vacation at that time, and my sister, my cousin and one of my friends also want a signed book. But I wonder if there's a limit like per book per person or two books per person for the courtesy of people in the queue.

Violent Spork said...

Right, everyone still here, please go check out; Whistle while I work it by Tobuscus. Funny as hell, swears once, you'll barely hear it. Skulduggery fans usually like the same things. This is funny, you may like it.

azkn said...

Oh, and can we get signed just the latest book or can we get Book 1 Signed too as well?

Mary Contrary said...

@Adra: *laughs* That's pretty much the theme of MCS's albums, in very similar words to those which their lyricist put it into. Which probably doesn't mean a lot to you, but I just liked that. :)

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*laughs* It is something that can't be simplified, really. I don't know how else to explain it- but I can certainly try.

Think of a circle. Mentally draw a circle.
Now, that circle represents the earth and the trees and the plants and energy.
Now picture lost of little stick figures walking over the circle. Find a figure- that is you. Now imagine that figure melting down into the circle. That is the first part if what I do- tie myself to the planet, allowing it to feed from my energy and I from its in a continuious circle

Mary Contrary said...

@Sherlock: I said almost, :P
But I'm definitely //close//.

#ChaseForBook9

Edward Fletcher said...

oh

Noelle said...

*shrugs* It is a lot of eastern medicines and teachings, Taia

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Thanks Adra! That kinda helps! I'm not good at this am I?

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

One must always start at the beginning of the Lou gain, Rhydian

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Adra quick question! Do I pick any figure and declare it mine or do I have to feel drawn to a specific one?

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

Well, actually it's more to do with being /out/ of sync with the world around you, but that in itself is about being in sync with it. *shrugs*

@Sarlia: Hi! :) I can't ATM. Later, possibly, I could try.
One swear in a song wouldn't bother me, anyhow. :p

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

No no, that was for the sake of example. You are one, but at the same time, you are all.

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

*raises eyebrow* Alchemy is so confusing. *bangs head on wall* maybe I should just stick with the elements

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*laughs* You should consider yourself lucky. I had to teach myself this.

Edward Fletcher said...

rhydian, elements are really useful you know

Noelle said...

*nods* They are. There is a lot you can do with them as well

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I know Dalek. I just don't want to limit my options. I've got a few years to decide what I want.

You had to teach yourself Adra? Maybe I am lucky. Let me get this straight. I have to imagine I'm becoming a part of nature and other stuff. Have I got that right?

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

@Rhydian: Hey, there's a practice to fit every one of us - You've just gotta find one that works for you. :)

Taia still hasn't started trying. ^^

#ChaseForBook9

Edward Fletcher said...

i would suggest the same powers i use but i dont think you can learn them excatly

Mary Contrary said...

That said, I'm not sure she /wants/ to use magic, as such.
*shrugs*

Taia's an odd one. :P

Working on the mental lockpick who nearly has a name ATM. ^^


#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

That was part of the scenario. First time trying it is a lot harder. I got sick I was so nauseous. Of course I would show you what the state feels like first, but... It is a lot about finding your center

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Brb. Trying to get my sister out of my room

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

*cocks head*

Actually, I don't think that's true.

The last I worked with her, where use of magic was allowed, she kind of poured it into the weapon she wielded, in effect. Not in a necromancer way, as such, but... *shrugs* just something that happened, and with practice, it improved, rather than being learned. ^^

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Interesting, Taia..

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Back. I didn't get her out. Damn. So what were you saying Adra? Something about finding my center?

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Have you ever watched Mulan? Because they have a song that helps explain things.. It is a lot to absorb, I know

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Hello?

#ChaseForBook9

Edward Fletcher said...

i would suggest the same powers i use but i dont think you can learn them excatly

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Mulan? Years ago yeah. But I can't remember any of it

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

@Adra: *nods* *pauses* *shrugs*

Ugh. I am /so/ close with this name, it hurts.

There's just a question of a, e, and ä.

I just need to work out which combination makes sense.
Combination is key.
(Sorry, combinations and keys are his ability, so :P)

#ChaseForBook9

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

What are your powers Dalek?

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Ah. I'll make a man out of you. Basically what I am trying to say

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

*the air crackles with lightening when suddenly the Delorian appears. It pulls up beside everyone, leaving blazing tyre trails, the windscreen has a bullet hole in it. Trip steps out the car, he has a bullet wound in his right shulder.*

Miss me?

#ChaseForBook9

Edward Fletcher said...

creating this blue lightning stuff, control over time, create a giant combat avatar and turn things to dust

Edward Fletcher said...

trip, you return!

Mary Contrary said...

Yale Kalan/Kalen/Kälan/Kälen Hobbs.

Ugh. The umlaut makes sense, because how I derived it, but... Depending on where you're from, you'd pronounce it differently. But I guess that'd happen any way.

And then the a/e question probably depends on which I choose for the first a.

*grumbles*

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*drops her bear*
TRIP! *runs and jumps at him*
Welcome home!

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Doesn't sound like something I'd be into Dalek.

Hi Trip!

Adra I'll look for that on YouTube. Make a man out of you? Are you insulting me?

#ChaseForBook9

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

Heh, this is awkward, bye!

#ChaseForBook9

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

*hugs Adra*

#ChaseForBook9

Maralie Lily Charm said...

Ugh. I feel like dying.
I need Nurofen or something ;-;

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

Trip! Hi!
Nice shoulder. :P
Nice Car.

Welcome back. ^^

#ChaseForBook9

Edward Fletcher said...

didnt the delorian get hit by the time train?

Noelle said...

*rolls her eyes* It is a song!
Though yes.

And wait- you're going?

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Bye Trip! Hi Mara!

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*huffs* Rude.

*sneaks back to the bar, restocking all the broken bottles from the night previous and locking it behind her*

Good as new!

Mary Contrary said...

*huggles Mara*
You okay? Stupid question, sorry. What's the matter?



Hm. I think I'm going with Kälen.

Yale Kälen Hobbs.

Thoughts?

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

Bye again, Trip! *waves*


...


._.


What if I think of Garret Jacob Hobbs when I write/see his name, though? And then I'll just start imagining writing about him and then I'd go into a Hannibal frenzy and start crying in a corner.
What would you say the risk of that happening is?

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

* Garrett


#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Fangirling to death

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

YouTube isn't working...damn

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

We don't fangirl over Hobbsy. ;_; ^^

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

No but you are a Fannibal.

And... Oh

Right, so I'm on my way back to the airport and hopefully this time people won't FUCKING KICK ME OFF OR I SWEAR I WILL START CRYING FROM FRUSTRATION... again

Maralie Lily Charm said...

*hugs Taia* My stomach is killing me :/ ugh. It has been all week. -.-
And dad's forcing me to babysit .-.

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*hugs Mara* Sorry :/

Mary Contrary said...

@Adra: That's true. :P
They'd better let you on, this time. I expect they will, too. *hugs*

Awh, heck *hugs Mara gently* That sucks. :( I hope it gets better very soon. :/

#ChaseForBook9

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

*hugs Mara* sure you'll be alright soon

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

I'm not kidding I will scoop someone's eye out with a spoon. Do not doubt me.

Mary Contrary said...

@Adra: I doubt nothing. Which is why I'm hoping if Trip keeps cutlery in his place, he'll have kept that drawer locked. :P

*hugs* :/

#ChaseForBook9

Queen Flora Ophelia of the Flowers; Leader of the New Land of Stickers; Prophet of the New Order; General of the Shadow People said...

'lo guys :)
watching green mile with a friend so wbd

but hellloooo, how's everyone?

#chaseforbook9

Noelle said...

*rolls her eyes* I always have a spoon on my person. Always.

Mary Contrary said...

Hi Flora! :)
Okay. ^^

I'm good, thanks~ :3
Awesome music is awesome (in my awesome opinion :P).

How're you doing?

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Hello Flora!

Also, I don't think he does at all- I've just hidden things... And brought some food and stuffs over whilst he was gone for our base amp. We'll probably have to get a new one...

Also.

The demons have been pretty quiet... Think anything is up?

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Gtg now. BYE!

#ChaseForBook9

Edward Fletcher said...

bye rhydian

Mary Contrary said...

@Adra: *nods* Of course. Just in case you have to blinden somebody. *nods again*

:P

Hm, I don't know. That's quite true. Worryingly so.

(Actually, I need clarifying on the what-happens-when-your-demon-is-met, because aside from possession or whatnot, I don't really know. Sorry. ^^)

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*curtsies* Goodbye, Rhydian

Mary Contrary said...

Bye Rhydian!

-
I couldn't breath, I was never at ease
I was a wrecking ball of aggravation
I had my doubts that I'd find a way out
With all the agony intepridation

The words I never said out loud
And the things I never did at all
Are coming back to haunt me
Now that I'm alive

I don't care, I don't care anymore
I give up, I give in, I surrender
I'm afraid, I'm afraid of it all
It's a monster I can't ignore
I don't care, I don't care anymore
I give up, I give in, I surrender
-

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Well... Quick rundown- they are killing people and offering up all the souls to their darkness being, Chaos. They want to possess mages because we are stronger and more... "Fun" as they would say, than humans. And they plan on waking Chaos up with the intentions to basically go planet- hopping, feeding off of as many people, and destroyingz

Edward Fletcher said...

just a head count, who is still dead?

Mary Contrary said...

@Adra: *nods*
Right. But what happens during/following possession, exactly? ^^

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Well, in theory if they want to permanently make you their vassal they'll come to you in person... I think they leave their old bodies and just move into yours as a big pile of black smoke.


Inside your mind, they crush you until you are but a mere pea... It hurts. And is not fun.

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Parents can be real bastards sometimes. I'm back btw. Mbd.

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

Oh, great.
So I've that to look forward to.

You said, 'In theory', so what about in practice?

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*raises glass* HEAR HEAR, RHYDIAN!

Noelle said...

I've seen it work like that before... However if your demon wanted to briefly possess you... I don't think they appear- as Lilith did last night.

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Gtg. Not aloud to use my phone apparently. Bye!

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

Welcome back, Rhydian.
Damn right, unfortunately. But at least it's only sometimes, and not all of the time. :/


(I think I'm gonna be getting a little more into character from here on. Hopefully. I'll see how that goes, anyway. THere probably won't be much difference, anyway. I've actually done very little with Taia, still not entirely sure who she is, so we'll see. :) )

(Also, may introduce Yale at some point, unless anybody objects?)

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*shrugs* I don't know who Yale is...

*right. *picks Trip's lock, going inside and pouring herself a glass of wine, locking up behind her* I really ought go just take the whole bottle...

Mary Contrary said...

Aw, bye Rhydian! *waves*

Right, Adra. Okay. So they just 'Bam. Sorry, you're possessed. Aaaand that's all I wanted- *poofs again*'

Just like a little field trip?

#CHaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

Yale's an OC of mine. The 'mental lockpick' of sorts. :) ^^

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Mental lock pick? Interesting,

And that is what Lilith did yesterday... She and t tried to fully take over yet, neither has Nero to Niccolo... Neither have a lot of demons, actually

Queen Flora Ophelia of the Flowers; Leader of the New Land of Stickers; Prophet of the New Order; General of the Shadow People said...

Bye Rhydian!

#chaseforbook9

Mary Contrary said...

*nods*
He sort of 'sees' into lock mechanisms, or matrixes, codes; stuff that needs solving or decoding, effectively. ^^

*nods* I haven't seen Eris yet,
Can we fight them once they're in there, or is that just hopeless?

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

If they've overcome you... No, not that I know of. But let us just not get possessed in the first place

Edward Fletcher said...

yes, its not nice

Mary Contrary said...

*nods* Okay, yeah. That's a good plan.

So, is there a time or situation where we'd be more vulnerable to them?
When Lilith borrowed you yesterday, I recall you were a little angry, if that has anything to do with it.

And, in avoidance - You're taking a mental frame from a previous era, yes? Is there a specific reason for that helping?

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*shudders* Ugh.

Noelle said...

It is easier for them to break into our minds if we are emotionally weak or shocked or whatever...

Edward Fletcher said...

or dying. they can easily break in when dying.

Mary Contrary said...

*nods*

*raises an eyebrow* Victorian Adrasdos Dark has greater mental strength than Present Day Adra?

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Uh, yeah. Let's for sure avoid that

Noelle said...

Victorian Adrasdos Dark gives zero fucks, and is British. So she doesn't cry. She moves on.

Yeah.

Edward Fletcher said...

we could always get the english sanctuary to help

Mary Contrary said...

Sherlock, I should hope we'd all be avoiding dying anyway. Or, I will, at least.

*nods* Alright, Adra. That makes snese. *nods again*

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Of course it makes sense- it is simple reverting myself to a previous mindset.

Mary Contrary said...

Yale lends a hand at the English sanctuary, if that helps at all.
Or, when they request assistance.
Otherwise, he does his own thing, I guess. I don't know.


*cracks the knuckles of her right hand*
Yeah, I got that.
I meant why it's of assistance. That made sense, where it didn't before, to my own knowledge.

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

Edward Fletcher said...

i mean, the more of are forces, the more of a chance of stopping the demons

Noelle said...

Hmm. I am intrigued, Taia.

I also must leave in a little under an hour for a little over an hour

Mary Contrary said...

Or, the more people directly available to be possessed while we're trying to get them to back off.
In theory, it could work out as badly as it could work out well.
We'd need to evaluate the possible outcomes, balance out risks.

Okay, Adra.
*turns towards the door* I'll be back in a moment...

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*waits*

Mary Contrary said...

*slips back through the door*

Sorry about that.


(Might be distant and will be eating. :P)
#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

*looks around*

Is there a television in this place?
It might be helpful to catch up on the news.
Or even the weather. *glances at the window*

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Omfg I just flattened my thumb on that damned conveyor DAMMIT OW FUCK

I HATE THIS PLACE

Noelle said...

*pulls out her computer, pulling up live news* there you go!

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

Hello?

#ChaseForBook9

Edward Fletcher said...

what are you doing?

Edward Fletcher said...

hello fabi

Star Inkbright said...

*is here*

For soem reason, I cna hardly keep my eyes open. I suspect that reason is the fact I've been having less sleep recently.

Msd, btw.

I might just like, lie down here and close my eyes . . .

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

I was checking into an airport again an the thing mashed me. Fuck. This. I think I have bad karma or something... OMG my skin is puffy and loose...

Mary Contrary said...

*glares at the conveyor* DON'T HURT MY ADRA.

*tilts head* Thanks.

(Okay, so I have no imagination. I'll need help to make something decent out of the news, now. Great habit of not thinking things through.)

Hi, Fabi, Hi Star!
*nods to them both from behind the computer*

#ChaseForBook9

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

Hello Sherlock

Hello Star

Hello Adra

Hello Taia

Hello anyone else.

Oh, and I can hug people normally because of the magic of Blogland. [hugs anyone who wants/needs/doesn't mind a hug] Yeah, maybe that's stretching things. Too bad.

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

(Good new or bad news?) hello, Fabi!

Wait- YOUR Adra? :3

Edward Fletcher said...

hey star

Mary Contrary said...

*hands Adra and Star a cookie each*
*hugs Fabi back* ^^

(Hm. Come to think of it, either could be interesting. But I think I'd go with bad, because negativity rules. :P)
*leans back on her chair*
Damn internet slowing down...


My Adra. As opposed to somebody else's Adra. Like, an Adralos instead of you, Adrasdos. :P

I'm writing for Nameless, so distant. Fabi was in such an odd mood.

Noelle said...

...I didn't think....

*shakes we head just as an urgent alert comes on the computer- that people need to stay indoors as flash floods are popping up across the area with an unexpected Hurricane*

are you-

Edward Fletcher said...

oh well, ill go

Mary Contrary said...

DAmn. *kicks the table leg*
Check another site - see if any others are alerting the same.

Am I what?

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

I didn't mean you specifically...

*goes to other news sites* yep- all in our area... What are we going to do?

Mary Contrary said...

Oh? Bye, Sherlock!

*nods*
Great.
That's- That's great.

We're going to stay indoors, apparently...

Board up the windows and go to higher ground? [Shrugs]

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

That sounds sensible. But then, I wouldn't know. I've never sat through a hurricane.
What kind of intensity is this thing supposed to be?

#ChaseforBook9

Noelle said...

Higher ground won't help for hurricanes, you're thinking of Tornados, I think...

((AAAAGHHHDNSN SHIT IM ON A PLANE. Um. When I leave can we put this on hiatus? I really wante to do this :3))

Noelle said...

*glances at her screen* Um...


Four and a half,

Out of five

Mary Contrary said...

*shrugs* Never sat through a tornado, either.

((Okay, sure! C: I'll see you later? ))

#CHaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

*nods* Could be worse, then...

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

I'm not gone yet. Five to ten.

I have been through tornados... And hurricanes. And tsunamis.

We need to board up the windows and if there is anything our magic can do..

Noelle said...

As in one being the lease, five being catastrophic. We're at a four and a half

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

No, I was thinking of just the flash flood bit. I'm not likely to be thinking of tornados, we don't get them here.

But I guess it doesn't really matter...

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

((right. I actually have to go now. Cheers! <3))

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

((Bye then.))

[Does nothing]

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

Hm. Either, you've spent more time travelling, or you live in a /very/ unfortunate area. I'm guessing the former.

Boarding the windows...
That means dismantling furniture or pulling up floorboards, doesn't it?

And, I got that. I didn't say it was good, but at least we're not at five. *shrugs* A little optimism, now and then.
But I'll also be a realist, and say that it could be worse than expected, too.

(How long is that from now? -- Time zones :/)

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

Oh, okay, Bye Adra! *hugs*
Have a good flight!

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

@Fabi: 're you okay? :/

#ChaseForBook9

Edward Fletcher said...

actually, im bored so will just come back and sit over there * points to empty land *

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

[Fidgets]

Uh, msd. I have this weird feeling...

#ChaseForBook9

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

I'm fine, just a bit on edge for no apparent reason.

Hello Sherlock. [waves]

#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

Hi again, Sherlock.
I think we've put the RP on hiatus until Adra gets back. :) ^^

@Fabi: Okay, *hugs*

#ChaseForBook9

Edward Fletcher said...

ok, i wasnt a part of it anyway. * waves back *

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

Or, the hurricane is on hiatus. :-P

I reserve the right to roleplay to some extent. Sorry, but I'm stubborn that way.

[hugs back]

I want cake for breakfast... Instead, we're having cereal. [pouts]

#ChaseForBook9

Dragona Pine said...

Hello all.

Mary Contrary said...

*laughs*
Forecast for next week:

Rain, rain, rain, rain, rain, rain, rain.

In between those, some thunder, and maybe a little bit of sun.

Oh, Summer. :P

#ChaseForBook9

Dragona Pine said...

I'm watching Harry Potter on TV. It's very random. I'm not 100% sure what's happening but yeah.

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

I sat outside for four hours in the rain eating cake last night! :D

Hello Dragona!

#ChaseForBook9

Edward Fletcher said...

the prisoner of azkhaban is the most confusing harry potter of them all

Edward Fletcher said...

* continues to sit bored *

Mary Contrary said...

@Fabi: *laughs*
Hm, I can only speak for myself, but I'd say that's fine. :)

I WANTED CAKE TOO!
But we didn't have any, so I had yoghurt instead. :P

Anybody particularly want to ded? I like to check first.

#CHaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

Hi Dragona! :)
*frowns* Which Harry Potter is it? I'm assuming you haven't seen them before?

@Fabi: Please let me steal your evenings, because that would be perfect for me. xD

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

Sorry I poofed. After I said I might just lie down there and close my eyes, I went and did just that, and fell asleep for 45 mintues. *yawns and considors returning to sleepful state*

#ChaseForBookNine

Edward Fletcher said...

whats happening in the roleplay?

Dragona Pine said...

From what I can gather, there are these evil black things that fly around making a tornado from your face, and they're after someone who can turn into a dog but then Harry Potter for some reason gets mixed up in it all even though they have nothing to do with him, and then there's a random werewolf, a killer tree, a random bird animal thing, lots of white magic, an animal that can turn into a spider, a clown and a black floaty thing and a watch that can travel in time.


Nothing random about it. :P

Edward Fletcher said...

* sighs and walks off *

Star Inkbright said...

LOL Dragona , I'm meant to be watching Harry Potter tonight.

We (well, my brother) decided we would watch them all in order over a few days. I've avoided seeing the first two and I was at rockclimbing for number three. We;re meant to be doing four today. Considoring whetherto or not, if we do. Probably won't.

#ChaseForBookNine

Mary Contrary said...

*laughs* Sherlock was right - You've got the Prizoner of Azkaban. :P

It always made sense to me. :P

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

That's number three, Dragona. The Prisoner of Azkaban.

I've watched all of them, most of them more than once, and the books are better, so I don't see much point in watching them again . . .

#CHaseFOrBookNine

Dragona Pine said...

And everyone is like, '"OH MY GOD A KILLER TORNADO COMING FROM MY FACE". LET'S USE A VERY CONVENIENT SPELL THAT CAN DEFEAT THEM. AND A CONVENIENT TIME TRAVEL THING THAT HELPS US JUST IN THE RIGHT TIME.'

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

We have cake leftover from last night on the counter... AND IT SMELLS LIKE CHOCOLATE! D: [Eyes the cake hungrily]

[Shrugs] I don't think my big project is ready yet, so no, I don't want to ded.

Taia, I don't do that often. :-P

HI STAR!
