First of all, this is a cat (Pooper) who has just discovered that the small sitting room has been housing a rather large snake for the past few weeks, while Laura and her sister try to figure out what to do with it. Pooper, as you can see, is quite wary.
It was at this point that I started taking random shots of the room, and a thought occurred to me: "Aha!" this thought said. "I have your new blog post!"
I'll give a proper guided tour of my house at some later stage — probably once my extension is built — but for the moment, here is what greets you when you walk through my front door....
Naturally I have the posters for the movies I've written on prominent display...
... and of course I have what EVERYONE has in their halls: a severed foot in a glass case.
Now then, to the office!
I'm not going to show you the ACTUAL office (the ACTUAL office is really very messy at this moment in time) so I'm going to show you some of the things I have on the shelves. Such as these gentlemen...
Plus a little Evil Dead...
... and some Marvel folk hanging around...
And let us not ignore Star Wars...
... or zombies...
And here, tucked away on their own little shelf, Skulduggery and Vampirella. Just chillin'.
(That Skulduggery is a pretty rare promotional item my German publishers had made... It's not for sale anywhere except MAYBE eBay.)
And now, to the main living room. I'm not gonna show you everything, but this is the room I had designed and rebuilt as a live-in museum. The extension, if I ever get around the designing it, will be built specifically to house this stuff. Because it makes me happy.
And here it is, the suit I love to talk about... as worn by Christopher Reeve.
I do NOT dress up in this. I swear I don't.
Although if someone wanted to photoshop my head onto this mannequin, I would not object.

HI ZAFFY! :D
Hey that's good, then you have something to talk about^^
Gaaaah, I need to concentrate on school stuff... but I can't!
Derek wrote a short story about the tenth Doctor. Found that out JUST then. It's not released yet though... and that's even worse because it's more TORTUROUS!
Greetings!
That's very interesting, Mr. Duck! Is it a Skulduggery Pleasant crossover or is it just about the Doctor?
Oh you're right, Duck. That IS torturous!
Mithria? Are you still here?
Miss September has some rather interesting news for you.
Oh, you are!
☂MITH LOOK AT THIS GUY'S FACE THAT I'M GOING TO PUT IN MY PROFILE PICTURE NEXT COMMENT☂

What's up, Ember?
Hello, just fixed internet
☂LOOK AT THIS GUY'S FACE☂
☂-------->☂
☂AND TELL ME☂
☂WHAT THE FIRST WORD IS THAT COMES TO YOUR HEAD☂
@Ember: First word is "orange!" but that doesn't count because my mind is weird. Um... should I know him? Because I don't...
☂Do you think he's ugly?☂
☂Or at least not handsome?☂
Ugly is mean. But... well. Not handsome, yes. Why? Who is that?
☂THIS MAN☂
☂IS SCHEDULED☂
☂TO FUCKING PLAY☂
☂MYCROFT HOLMES☂
*looks at the picture again*
*looks at Ember*
NO! This is no Mycroft Holmes! Definately not!
poof for a few seconds brb
THERE'S A NEW POST AND YOU'RE ALL GOING TO LOVE IT
Dammit. :P
We were in the car on the way back, and they were talking about Disney songs, and I suddenly said "This is really random, but Chaos Walking is a really good book series."
And they were like "Yes, that is totally irrelevant to the conversation.
And then I started talking about it, and then, predictably, I started crying. :P
That was very smart, Star. XD *facepalm*
#ChaseForBookNine
☂New post, Mith!☂
DOCTOR WHO *Faints*
hello...??
I gots last muhaha!!!!
Uh..
That was a lot of words
It was
☂UGH! I wrote a really long comment and it went away because the post hit the comment limit!☂
Hello! Did you like my story?
☂What I basically said was that during the Fall I absolutely did not give a shit.☂
☂Yeah, I did! :D☂
I promise that I'll watch it, Ember. But not today. I'll only get depressed and I don't want to be depressed today...
☂I only gave a shit at the end because I was like☂
☂Seriously? This is it? AND NOW I HAVE TO WAIT A WHOLE YEAR?☂
☂THEN I was sad.☂
☂But besides that no.☂
☂Not even John's little speech got to me.☂
☂Mycroft sitting in the chair did, though.☂
☂I'm strange.☂
☂It's barely depressing. Just do what I did: Watch all the footage of Cumberbatch jumping into the airbag until you're so bored you'd rather watch paint dry, THEN watch the episode.☂
(It was painful to watch, yes, but that scene of Moriarty breaking into you-know-where, you-know-where, and you-know-where all at the same time, WHILE DANCING TO THE MUSIC, that just did it for me. It's my favorite scene from any TV show.)
☂That was my favourite non-Mycroft scene of any TV show too.☂
☂I've watched it on repeat so many times XD☂
Ember, I watched the first two or three minutes and was depressed! I'll watch it but not today, okay?
Um... question: Am I still being kidnapped?
I LIKED THE STORY :D
HEHE i have written a whole 3000 word thing on the monster hunters. it included Dau as well and its so perf :D
ELDIOUS O'Callaze
yes.
☂So. Shall we time-travel, people?☂
I dont watch Sherlock i have no interest in it at all.
☂Yes, you are still being kidnapped.☂
☂The first two minutes are pointless anyway. Skip them.☂
anni yes my father is briliant.
I'll have to go in a sec
Yeah i msd....
(ZAFIRAAAAAAAAAAAA
watch Sherlock.)
i gtg its like midnight here and i have to do stuff tommorow :P
TTYL GUYS BYEEEEE <3
Yay, new comment page!
Here's my take on the Monster Hunters thing;
“Donegan!” Isabella Quiet dropped her basket of washing in exasperation and spun around to glare at her son. “Let Gracious up right now!”
Donegan blinked his baby blue eyes back at her, but even he couldn’t pull off the innocent look whilst sitting on his friend. Gracious was squashed to the floor and wailing louder than Isabella had ever thought possible, flailing and kicking stubby legs in the air.
In three strides, she reached the pair and scooped Donegan up with one expert arm. He squealed as she walked over to the corner and plonked him into his bed.
“Mummy!” he wailed, uselessly pounding at the bars on his cot as she turned away to make sure Gracious wasn’t too badly hurt.
“He deserved it!”
☂Zaf.☂
☂Do not say that in front of three Sherlock-obsessed girls, two of which (whom?) adore one of the main characters (kind of main) to death.☂
☂DO NOT.☂
☂Social etiquette.☂
(Sorry, I don't think I can get involved in any deep RP right now. I'm in one of those situations where we're waiting for someone to show up at my house and I could get called away at any moment.)
Bye Eld! *hugs* Sleep well.
☂WAIT, SAPH, TELL ME YOU SHIP CHERRY LIMEADE☂
(Yes, I believe it is 'two of which.')
☂Fair enough, Anni.☂
☂Okay. Good.☂
(Goodbye, Eldritch! Great name, by the way.)
(Bye everyone who has to leave!
Wait... Adra has gone... Anni is not really here. That means we have no Moriarty...)
Okay, Anni :)
Sherlock is awesome! I'm not obsessed with it, but it's cool :)
Ember; ?
☂Mycroft could always be unconscious.☂
☂HOMESTUCK☂
☂CHERRY LIMEADE☂
☂UUCEST☂
☂CALIBORN/CALLIOPE☂
Ember; Ohhh. Yep :)
'What I said earlier is true John. I don't have friends. I just have the one.'
<3
☂And Mith, we could always expand it so I'm John and Mycroft, you're Sherlock and Mith, and then we could split between Greg, Donovan, Anderson, and Molly, whoever you'd prefer.☂
☂And Saph can be two of those too, actually. Maybe three. Or one.☂
☂We can just make it silly.☂
☂YESH☂
☂That is totally my Homestuck OTP.☂
☂I've written three fics for that on AO3...☂
(But don't hit him again, Ember! Because I'll get angry if you do^^)
Mmph. Finally.
#ChaseForBook9
☂I know. I love that line.☂
☂Except that when Moriarty's on the rooftop with him and Mrs. Hudson and Lestrade are listed as friends it kinda kills the mood of that line.☂
(Sorry I can't help, guys. I just know that the only thing worse than not RPing is RPing when suddenly Moriarty's all like "Sorry, guys, I'm sooooooooooooo changeable!" and disapparates because his RPer has to go offline . . .)
☂I'm sorry, who did I hit? I've hit so many people now XD☂
Thanks Ember, but I'll probably just sit here and watch :)
☂XD☂
☂☂is laughing hysterically at Anni's comment☂☂
(Mycroft. You hit Mycroft. Well, actually Gatiss hit Mycroft but you made him do this, so...)
☂Okay.☂
☂Mith, your move!☂
☂Which two of these do you want: Donovan, Anderson, Greg, Molly?☂
Who is Donovan?
Who is Anderson?
☂Noooo, Mycroft is never getting hurt ever again!☂
☂MY PRECIOUS....☂
☂Anderson is the guy with pale skin who hates Sherlock.☂
☂Donovan is Sally Donovan, the curly-haired girl.☂
Huh? I don't know Anderson and I don't know Sally Donovan...
☂Didn't you watch the first episode?☂
☂At the crime scene with the lady in pink.☂
☂And at the "drugs bust".☂
Oh... tell me that Sally Donovan is the woman who told John to avoid Sherly and I know who you're talking about^^
But Anderson...?
(I'm just going to sit on the sidelines and observe.
*pours a cup of tea*
*bites into Poptart*
*puts on giant foam finger that says MORIARTY IS #1*
Okay, I'm ready!)
Is Anderson the one who "lovers the IQ of the whole street"?
(How do you watch Sherlock and not know who Anderson is?)
Anderson's the policy guy I think.
(Yes, that's him.)
Okaaaaaaay. Now I got it :D
Um... Dinner, brb!! Stay where you are!
☂Yep!☂
☂SHE DELETED IT FROM HER HARD DRIVE BECAUSE HE'S NOT IMPORTANT :D☂
((I, um, bye.))
#ChaseForBook9
☂☂facepalms☂☂
(It doesn't matter if Anderson goes around the sun or the moon or 'round and 'round the garden like a teddy bear, HE DOESN'T MATTER.)
(Bye, Fabi! You're Fabi-lous!)
☂I APPROVE OF THAT COMMENT, ANNI☂
(I APPROVE OF THE WAY YOU USE UMBRELLAS INSTEAD OF PARENTHESIS, MYCROFT.)
Bye Fabi! *hugs* *Looks at clock* I'm not sleeping tonight, am I?
*Sighs* The joys of going thirty-seven hours without sleeping...
☂☂dying of luaghter☂☂
☂Thirty-seven?! Why??????☂
Ember; Can't sleep. I'm not that tired though.
(I second Anni's comment about umbrellas)
(I second Sapphire's comment about my comment about umbrellas.)
☂WELL REEEEEEAD FANFICS!☂
☂☂answer to everything☂☂
☂I second Sapphire's comment about Anni's comment and second Anni's comment about Sapphire's comment about Anni's comment☂
☂Hey guys, money, power, or comfort?☂
(I second Mycroft's comment about Saph's comment about my comment and my comment about Saph's comment about my comment.
And money. WIth money, you can buy power and comfort.)
Ember; If you have money, you have all three.
☂Fair enough, both of you.☂
☂Power or stability/comfort, then?☂
I second Anni's comment about Ember's comment about my comment about Anni's comment about Ember's comment.
Yes, Ember, I deleted both of them. I sent them out of my mind palace. No, wait. I can't have a mind palace. But what can I have instead?
Comfort.
(And isn't it easier to just say; 'I third that comment'?) XD
☂A MINDCROFT☂
☂☂facepalm☂☂
Hi Mith! Have a head castle.
☂I, personally, have a Mindcroft and a Mindlock that I go to whenever I have a problem.☂
(Well, we all know Moriarty has a Mind Disco Club.)
Ember, my mind is full of Mycroft anyway. Thanks to you. :D
Saph, a mind castle... that is a wonderful idea!
(Me, personally? I have a Mind Observatory.)
And Mycroft has his mind bakery, right? :P
☂☂dances☂☂
☂Mind Observatory is good.☂
I call my mind-thing cyberspace, because it fits, even though my mind place has nothing to do with electronics. The word just fits.
Anni, that's a really cool idea :D
Mith; Thanks :)
☂Yep.☂
☂Although I'm thinking about changing it.☂
Noooo! Don't change the Mind Bakery!!
☂Fair enough, Saph.☂
☂SO MITH☂
☂Choose between Molly and Lestrade, and then between Anderson and Donovan.☂
(I've been seriously considering a Mind Laboratory though . . .)
☂I CALL MIND LABORATORY DIBS☂
☂Sorry, now it's mine XD☂
Greg and Anderson^^
☂Perfect!☂
*Molly rings up Sherlock*
Sherlock: *mobile rings but he doesn't move*
J: Shouldn't you pick up, Sherlock? It might be important.
Gtg, my computer's out of power and I can't get the charger without setting off the alarm. Bye!
(See you Saph! *hugs*)
Sherlock: *still doesn't move* *is in his mind palace*
(Sry, just had to do that^^)
☂Bye!!!☂
☂I actually wanted you to not pick up the phone.☂
☂Or rather him.☂
J: Um... Sherlock... it's important... I know for a fact it's important...
(Mean ol' Mycroft stole my Mind Laboratory . . . waaah . . .)
Omg.....Leon is in class
Sherlock: *opens eyes* What are you talking about?
(Anyone here seen/listened to Frankenstein: A New Musical? My favorite musical of all time, next to Les Miserables. I love it even more than Jekyll and Hyde [don't tell Zafira.})
(Aw dang I typed that and then suddenly Zafira appeared and I was like OH CRAP.)
☂Anni ;)☂
☂Zaf ;) ;) ;) SOMEBODY GOTTA CRUUUUUSH☂
J: I... may or may not have asked Molly to help me with Mycroft... He's been out cold for almost a whole day now, and we're thinking about moving him into the hospital.
Sherlock: *looks at John without any reaction*
J: Um. Sherlock. Mycroft is in a coma. Don't you care? And also, shouldn't you have already known about this?
Sherlock: *closes eyes* *hears Mycroft's voice in his head* Caring is not an advantage, Sherlock... *opens eyes again* *looks at his mobile* *picks up* Molly.
☂AWWWW☂
Mol: Hi! I, um, I was wondering if you would be okay with me putting Mycroft into the hospital... I wanted to get your permission first. Also, once you've answered... can you pass me to John?
Sherlock: Do whatever you think is necessary. *passes mobile to John*
I am sorry, everyone, but I must now take my leave. I can hear the teapot whistling in the kitchen, hear the seductive whispers of stories begging to be written, and I can feel the autumn breeze playing with my hair, urging me to skip in the leaves, dance in the puddles, and dream dark dreams no human ever dared to dream before.
Goodbye.
*elegantly backflips out of your lives*
Mol: Are you su--
J: Hello, Molly!
Mol: Ah! Hi, John! Um, do you think I should move Mycroft to the hospital?
J: I dunno, what did Mith say?
Mol: I haven't... haven't said anything to her yet...
J: I'll call her now, put us in a three-way.
Mol: Excuse me?
J: A three-way phone call. Haven't you heard of those before?
Mol: Oh, y-yes, of course...
J: *rings Mith*
☂LOVELY EXIT, ANNI☂
(Anni, that made me smile! See you soon, I hope!)
*picks up immediately* John?
Hello.
I have homework.
Not sure how bothered I can be.
#ChaseForBookNine
J: Hello, Mithria. Has Mycroft woken up? Molly and I were planning to move him to the hospital now.
Mol: Is that alright for you?
-_-
#ChaseForBookNine
☂SAVED FROM FIRST!!!!!☂
☂I know the feeling, Star. I've been avoiding work for the past three hours.☂
He... he hasn't moved for... He hasn't moved at all. Yes, take him to the hospital. Please.
Kill me.....i....*laughs* he added me on fb
STAR
I was going to make you a bubble, but that makes you too small, so is there something else that would work? I can maybe do a blue bubble butterfly, but is that a butterfly made of bubbles or something else?
#ChaseForBook9
Mol: Alright. We'll arrive as soon as we can, okay?
J: *yelling away from the phone* SHERLOCK, I HAVE TO GO NOW.
J: *to the phone* Molly, meet me at the hospital. Mith, I'll call the ambulance to help you transport him there.
*15 minutes later ambulance arrives*
☂☂is confused by Fabi's question to Star, even though it's not my business☂☂
For the ded, I think I want to do one of the following:
a) write a short story snippet of something
b) make a ded involving lyrics from awesome songs
c) write a long rhyming thing
*thinks*
#ChaseForBookNine
@Fabi: I always thoughts of it as a bubble in the shape of a butterfly, but it being made of multiple bubbles makes more sense and woulf look better . . . *hugs*
Gtg bbs
#ChaseForBookNine
Sherlock: *sighs and closes eyes again* Caring is not an advantage... Caring is NOT an advantage.
☂I personally love all three ideas...☂
*Molly rings Sherlock*
Mol: Mr. Holmes, we've just... we've just put your brother into the hospital room. Do you want to visit him quickly?
Sherlock: Is Mithria there?
Mol: Honestly, I'm not sure why he's so knocked out... I'm wondering if there's another reason he's become like this.
Mol: Mithria? Yes, she's there, but you COULD get her to come out if you arrived. If... if that's what you wanted.
Sherlock: That is not what I wanted. Forget about that question. What do you mean by another reason? A mental thing?
Sounds brilliant, Star. :-)
And okay, thanks for the clarification.
It will all come clear with time, my dear September. [villainous smile]
#ChaseForBook9
(Fabi, that is mean.
Btw, I've got about an hour, then I'll have to leave... sorry!)
*runs in quickly and throws tea over everyone before running out again*
(*blinks* Um... Adra?)
☂☂gasps at Fabi's statement☂☂
Mol: He... could be drugged, actually. Although it could be mental. We're not really sure yet. Forget I said anything.
☂☂licks tea off face☂☂
((It would be even less clear if I tried to explain it, and the last person who got a longer explanation laughed, so.... Sorry. [Vanishes]
#ChaseForBook9
☂Okay. LOVE YOU FABI☂
Sherlock: *gestures even though she can't see it* Forget? Have you ever seen me forget anything?
*John's voice can be heard from across the room saying DELETE IT FROM YOUR HARD DRIVE THEN, FOR GOD'S SAKE*
Mol: *giggles nervously* Don't worry about it, then. Come and see him if you want to.
*hangs up*
J: *to Mithria* Are you alright?
Sherlock: *hangs up* *mumbles* Some things can't be deleted...
Yes... no... I... I don't know. I mean... He will wake up again, right? Please tell me, he will. Please, John...
J: I'm not sure. Molly and I are going to run some tests. I'll leave you in here for another ten minutes, and then I'll have to ask you to get out.
*looks to the ground without saying something* *nods* I... I understand...
J and Mol: *leaves the room*
I think I'll do homework, then do the ded.
#ChaseForBookNine
*steps up to Mycroft's bed* *sits on a chair next to the bed, holding his hand* *whispers* You... you can't do that to me. Mycroft, please... you... can't...
