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.

((What?))
#ChaseForBook9
Hey a Fabsi. How are you?
#ChaseForBoook9
*Chase is sitting by the fireplace with a cane in his hand*
Chase: No it wasn't, could hear you coming from down the road...
*Leo smirks*
Leo: Tough titties, I'm staying.
*Leo sits on a stool across from her bed*
((Genestealer? Whut
Hey Fabilous))
*downs the whole bottle, glaring at him*
((Sorry, it's a running joke from my warhammer club.))
Eh, I wasn't really going for stealth by then. After I knocked over those pots and pans, I knew the element of surprise was gone. Mind if I sit?
#ChaseForBook9
((Em can you make me some brownies please?
I have a hankering for brownies.
Does anyone have some?))
((WELL THANKS THEN :l))
((I have many brownieses! *throws arms wide and it rains brownies in zip lock bags.))
#ChaseForBook9
(Yeah sure I'll just put on my Betty Crocker mode lol)
Chase: Not at all... sit.
((Hello, Trip, Adra, Em, Mara. I'm okay. Hobbes didn't bite me today, he was behind a plastic fence. I'm re-working a bit of Fabi's back story and sort of editing her discipline so it makes more sense, so wbd. Once I'm finished with that, I'll come in and join the RP somehow. :-)
#ChaseForBook9
(*hugs Fabi* :)
BETTY CROCKER BROWNIES OMFG XD)
((I gtg now just pretend Mara and Harry fell asleep :)))
(Night xx)
#ChaseForBook9
((Awesomesauce.))
#ChaseForBook9
((*noms brownies* YAY I'M HAPPY NOW))
((Yeah u better woman))
*grimaces, feeling her broken bones flare up* Here we go..
(Sure. "Fell asleep". Sorry. Anyway, night Mara!)
#ChaseForBook9
(9*wags her eyes at Harralie*))
((Trip. *scolds*
*punches Adra*))
#ChaseForBook9
(Em?)
#ChaseForBook9
((ALRIGHT YU WANNA GO CHERMENDER LEAVE ME ALONE IM SORE *sobs*))
((Zaf, if you're still here, I know ZafTC can imitate magic she's seen others use, but Niccolo's time travel has limitations. Taking you back to 1516 exhausted him well enough, actually, he's just very good at hiding when he's exhausted, and there's the fact that the two of us can share exhaustion. If we couldn't he wouldn't have even been able to act like he wasn't tired. 3000 years is too much. He wouldn't be able to do it. That's why I emphasized so much earlier that back to the beginning of man was too much and should have killed him. 3000 years, unless she was doing what he did, would kill her.))
#ChaseForBook9
*Chase sighs*
Chase: Well since you're already here, you might as well sit down...
((Oh....oopsie....))
*jerks* Ow....
*looks at her leg as it burns, her ribs and head and shoulder following*
Thank you. *sits* It's a lovely fire.
How's business?
#ChaseForBook9
Wb Zaf. Hey Ari.
#ChaseForBook9
((I didn't realize....shit....I dunno I wasnt thinking AH its Monday I'm sorry Ari I never use me head on Mondays... I'll go with what you said she'd die....she hasn't moved since she did it))
Chase: Settled since Deacon and Emerald were killed. The wolves have suddenly lost their bravery...
((Night Mara...))
#ChaseForBook9
So you've had time to send hunters after a boy then.
#ChaseForBook9
*whimpers, shutting her eyes and gripping the sides of the med bay bed*
((Em you want me to repost for Alexis?))
Chase: I've gotten people to help me get my boy home. There's a difference. He's my son.
((Omg the sky irl looks on FIRE))
((Doesn't it?? :O))
*bites her lip* Ah... Gods.
((Its cool but just so crazy! I wish my iPod captured it right))
((Then it goes silent.....:/))
((...I'm thinking some people fell asleep))
*watches in stunned horror as her bone begins to retract back into her leg* *bites her wrist, squeezing her eyes shut*
((Ironically at the same time....Ari probably vanished which she does a lot anyway and Em fell asleep Trip as well wow I just go to eat and everyone vanishes when I come back..))
((Yayyyhhyy))
*leans back, her breath shaky* Hell hell hell hell hell
((I'm not sure what to do...))
Javier: *sits with Zaf* hey wake up...Zaf..
*begins screaming*
((Adra are you in your lab? Or somewhere Javier would hear you?))
((I'm still here, I guess...
#ChaseForBook9
((I'm in my med bay so idk))
((Hey Fabi *hugs*))
((Gods the Europeans are rude *pointed looks all around*))
*bites her jacket, her bones moving further, almost sick to her stomach*
((I know! Aretha too how dare she vanish! :/))
Javier: *goes towards Adra's yelling*
*wheezes* Shit... This is worse than... Giving.... Birth... *screams again*
((Hi... [hugs]
((Thinks about how to make an entrance in the RP...
#ChaseForBook9
Javier: *walks into the Medical Bay* Adra geez what do you need help with?
*growls* don't... Touch.. Me.. *cries out, her hand going to her side*
Javier: Adra I would ask my wife but she is dead thanks to having to stop Edward from being stupid so now, can I help?
*shakes her head* No
Javier: you need help let me help you
No- I don't. *her bone sinks further back into her leg* need it...
Javier: whatever I just am trying
I don't need. Your assistance
Javier: I'm trying to be helpful! Look I'm freaking Zafira is dead
*doubles over* Surprise... Surprise
((Well, if Zaf was going to die, she would have done it before she came back. So you might as well just go with her being fine, and remember it for next time. Or you could just put Javier back and inform Ed when he returns that the thing never happened. It doesn't really matter that much to me, as long as you know that for the future- because I never really had a chance to tell you, anyway- but there's no real point in ZafTC dying now. Realistically, she would have died somewhere between the present day and the 3000 years in the future, so when she went forward she'd just show up as a fresh corpse. Anyway, I'm back now.))
#ChaseForBook9
(( hi. ))
((Hi Snow! *sneakyelderassassintacklehugs* How are you?
#ChaseForBook9
(( good :P i'm not gonna be doing any role-playing 'cause i am stuck with my subplot thingy. how're you all?))
((Alright Ari... Zaf is by the treehouse and Edward brought Javier back anyway so I'm not mad I'll keep that in mind and hopefully ZafTC needn't go back in time either way her exhaustion is from Justaria so...meh okay I wanna meet Mr. de Hecke))
*is playing with Olivia*
*falls back, a wave of pain hitting her again* Jesus-
((msd, because homework. I should be back in two hours if I have to go.))
#ChaseForBook9
(( i just read back through the comments... is it bad that i found the violent stuff highly amusing??))
((So basically you wont be back when im awake *growls* I give up on this))
((Which ones ;D))
*breathes out, her bone snapping back* SHIT
*sighs watching Olivia pretty bored* nothing good is happening I wanna write but I just can't write for ZafTC whe im working on something with someone
((I think I'm going to go.......
#ChaseForBook9
(( OMG i just read harralie *does a happy dance* is it weird that i ship that but dont like 1D??))
((No I don't like 1D totally like okay one song I like but otherwise I'm not into boy bands in general but I ship it))
((Okay Fabi :/ *hugs* Uh... Snow.))
*rolls off the bed* Ah... That's gonna be sore
(( the character Lea that i bought in (vamp hunter to deal with dusk), what should his discipline be?))
(( what adra????? ))
Javier: Zafira?
What?
Javier: *hugs tightly* Hey I missed you today
*quiet*
Javier: you don't trust me?
No. Not yet. I don't know if I will Javier.
Javier: Zaf I'm sorry you never will know how sorry I am. You know maybe you finding Cristofer will help if you see Niccolò tell him I wish to speak to him
((Hi))
*grabs a walking stick, hauling herself up, grunting and eventually making it topside*
(( i g2g *huggles all* bye))
((..bye?))
((Okay I seriously give up now. I cant handle rping alone until 9:30 i just cant))
*is quiet*
*hobbles out into her garden* *lays down*
((I havent the slightest idea what im doing may just leave since theres two of us once again. Tyoical now tomorrow Ari'll be on when i am at drama))
*tries not to die*
*stares at a tree* oh the explosive trees! *picks dynamite off the tree thats ready and bundles in a bundle labled 'Adra'* Hmmm the Niccolò bundle is non-exsistant I guess he found it and so is the Aretha one. Figures. *makes new bundles for them* Damn he does ruin the fun sometimes
*calmly eats an apple*
Javier: Zafira down
No
Javier: yes
*drowzily yawns* mmm...
Olivia: *wanders to Adra*
*waves*
Olivia: Hi Adra! *sits by*
((ANYONE?! No wow))

Hello...?
#ChaseForBook9
Zaffy here
Hi Zaf! [tacklehugs]
Wbd, working on the ded that I keep...delaying. I only have five people in it so far, and I want to ded to over twenty! D:
How are you?
#ChaseForBook9
Mwh bored xD
Hm...

#ChaseForBook9
Its fine Fabi at this point realistically i have to go soon I cant say for certain if ill be able to stay up later
Well you can f you want Zaf and Javier are by the treehouse
Okay then. :-)
#ChaseForBook9
((There's not much point if you're leaving soon, but she does have an offer to make you...))
ParaFabi: [Walks over to the treehouse] Grand Mage Kerias?
#ChaseForBook9
Yes? ((In here roughly 10-15 more min))
ParaFabi: You're looking for Niccolò Croatoan's nephew, aren't you?
#ChaseForBook9
Well yes but Niccolò gave me word on him so I'm not conerned at all.
[Shrugs] I have a database of all the security cameras in the world. Stores, banks, public transportation, museums... If you need it, it's available to you.
[Smiles grimly] I'm even working on a facial recognition search tool.
#ChaseForBook9
Thank you. I'll keep you in mind. According to Niccolò Cristofer is in Blogland and he'll come when he is ready. But your services could help me in other cases. Things my detectives are yet to solve because its just too....I don't even know strange!
hello?))
*Teleports to fab and zaf, Lea at my side*
*nods to them both* just wondering if you've seen any psychopathic vampires that want to kill Adra and Trip around.
Lea: she means Dusk
Dusk? No, sorry Snow. I haven't seen vampires I just saw wolves but obviously we know the wolves
okay. *sighs*
*glances at Lea* oh, right, introductions! this is Lea. Lea, this is Fabi and Zafira. Lea's the best monster hunter i know. well, aside from the Monster Hunters...
oh, and thats Adra... *gestures*
[Tilts head]
Interesting.
I can't promise it will always be there, but as long as it is, you may use it.
[Turns to walk away]
[Sees Snow]
Oh, hello, Snow, was it? No, I've seen no vampires. Not here, anyway, and they didn't mention Adra or Trip.
[Shrugs]
#ChaseForBook9
kay. best be going. places to be, vampires to kill... you know how it is... *shrugs and turns to go*
Lea: ah... it was nice meeting you??
Hello Lea, I'm Grand Mage Zafira Kerias, I'm American. Nice to meet you
Hai
Adrasdos Dark go back to bed you need it
Hello Lea. I'm the other Fabi, in case you were wondering. Which you weren't, but I thought I'd make that clear.
#ChaseForBook9
Goodbye, then. [Waves to Snow]
Hello Adra. [Studies]
#ChaseForBook9
Lea: okay... i might just *gestures to Snow, who is already walking away*
*chases after snow*
I know... I can't sleep :/
Staring at a screen probably won't help, Adra.
#ChaseForBook9
Indeed, Ms. Adrasdos. I would recommend retiring to your hopefully dark bed, and attempting to sleep.
No probably not. My mom and I are talking anyway...
Okay I might actually leave in a few
*Lea catches up to Snow, puffing* where are we headed, Snow??
"where headed nowhere fast" *grins*
Lea: whu...?
I gtg to bed or I'll never wake for school. I just wont xD and I need to try sleep because well coming attractions to Nameless you bettef enjoy I am totes losing a night of sleep from it.
Night Zaf-
Sir when did you add "Ms" to my name?
(( it's the middle of the day in Aussie... lol. bye zaf))
(Psst she's a Mrs she is married))
*is gone for real and also I have drama tomorrow I will not ne on fully til 5:30pm my time))
10:04pm for me and Adra okay i go now before i dont go xD
Hello Sir.
Goodnight, Zafira.
Alright, Adra.
#ChaseForBook9
What
Zafira, if she has not taken on the surname Castalan, though forgive me if I butcher Trip's surname, and I merely refer to her with her first name, then a Ms. is completely acceptable.
Uh...wow
Second night in a row people have talked *pointed look to Zaf* About Tadra marriage... *laughs awkwardly*
Although that would be adorable
((i may just poof soon. i'm only here while i wait for someone IRL))
Feels great to be second-rate, Snow.
I joke, obviously
(( of coarse, adra!))
Well, I am, at least, glad to see that things here are calm, for once.
((I, um, msd.))
#ChaseForBook9
Heh.
You should be so lucky.
Anyway, I actually should be off. *looks at Sir* I've got my eye on you, boy-o..
*backs away slowly into her lab, her eyes still on him*
*points to her eyes, then to his*
*The door shuts on it's own behind her*
... Very well, then, Adrasdos. I shall act accordingly.
*does absolutely nothing*
Good night.
(( g2g, bye!!))
Good evening, Ms. Snow.
*pokes her head back out and throws a stuffed seal at him to cuddle* *shuts the door quickly*
*whispers* Treat her well.
*walks into her lab sadly*
[Walks off when no one is looking]
#ChaseForBook9
*sighs*
Honestly. Some times, Ms. Adrasdos...
[Goes back to the gray van and checks on Fabi]
#ChaseForBook9
((Hello...? [hugs people who aren't here and anyone who is]
#ChaseForBook9
Hi! Still here? (wbd, writing)
I may not be here a lot... School has started, my iPod is... MIA... RPs on other sites are taking up my time, I can't eat anything anymore (I just feel sick all the time), I've got too much stuff to do... People keep calling me away in my free time...
I'll be here when I can, if I can... If I am, don't expect it to be for long...
Hi Death *hugs*
hello...????))
SAPH))
Hi Saph! [hugs]
Okay Deathy. :-( Good luck. Just, like, general good luck. As in, I hope your luck improves a lot, in general.

#ChaseForBook9
i am writing a randomness quiz XD
I am writing more of my twin story... Or sort of not... Just whatever comes out, I guess.
#ChaseForBook9
ho hum
Bets Question Ever: what is 4209 divided by 8 plus 87646? (this is not a maths question!)
*Claps* Love the ded :) *hugs Snow and Fabi*
One time Zaf and Ember (I think) were competing for first. I came on and said 'Hi!' and I got first comment XD
...okay.
Is there any point in me being here?
#ChaseForBook9
Fabi; Yes!
YES FABI!!!
(Snow, it's 88172.125)
Fabs, are you okay?
Mm. See I think I lost it. Or maybe it broke off, like a pencil. All the same, though...
Saph, if you were a stick figure with one small bit personalize about you, like an item you were wearing, carrying or using as a method of transportation, what would it be? Or I could make the stick figure blue...
#ChaseForBook9
[Blinks] The point.
Wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey lime-flavored jello.
Don't even blink. Blink and you're dead.
#ChaseForBook9
I don't really know Fabi. I try not to put too much of myself into one thing *shrugs* I guess I almost always have a book in my hand.
*looks at fabi* asdfghjkl Doctor Who... asdfghjkl
Lime-flavoured jello! *grabs and gobbles*
Hey, who turned out the lights?
Yes... Jello... [Gives Saph some more and a purple carrot just because]
The more I think about it, the more things that I consider normal fall into that category. It's almost scary...
#ChaseForBook9
"don't blink. Don't even Blink. Blink and you're dead. They're fast, faster than you could believe. Don't turn your back, don't look away, and don't blink. Good luck."
oh, and saph... the answer to that "what is 4209 divided by 8 plus 87646? (this is not a maths question!)" was not ment to be 88172.125. it's a randomness quiz, so the answers are not ment to be realistic.
People don't understand time. It's not what you think it is.
Complicated.
Very complicated.
People assume that time is a strict progression, cause to effect, but actually, from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey...stuff.
It...got away from me, yeah.
#ChaseForBook9
Christopher Eccleston, David Tannant and Matt Smith are the best. some of the older Doctors are great too.
Fabi; Carrot! Thanks Fabs *Nibbles it happily*
Snow; Oh. Just my freak brain then XD I'm not blinking, don't worry. I'm writing the 22nd chapter of my poor, neglected fanfic.
Some people live more in 20 years than others do in 80. It’s not the time that matters, it’s the person
*Nods at Snow's comment* I agree. But from a scientific standpoint, time is just the arrow of entropy, the law that everything must decay.
Do what I do. Hold tight and pretend it’s a plan!
( btw, i was quoting doctor who. fab has sey me off on a rampage)
In 900 years of time and space, I’ve never met anyone who wasn’t important
David Tennant is my favorite Doctor that I've seen, but as I haven't seen the older Doctors, I can't make a proper judgement.
#ChaseForBook9
There’s a lot of things you need to get across this universe. Warp drive… wormhole refractors… You know the thing you need most of all? You need a hand to hold.
Did you now that to make a warp drive, you need a warp drive?
(Do you like my new pic?)
That last one was perfect, Snow.
...
I hate it when I keep hurting myself emotionally, and on one level I realize that's all I'm doing, but on another, I can't stop it.
#ChaseForBook9
By that last one I mean the one before my commet before that.
It's an awesome pic, Saph. :-)
#ChaseForBook9
You "never interfere in the affairs of other peoples or planets," unless there's children crying.
nice pic saph
This is who I am, right here, right now, all right? All that counts is here and now, and this is me!
