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.

@Chione- yuuuppppo
@Luci- sick. Yuck. Philosophy?... Fun I guess?
Well I don't care about zombies *lays in treehouse not allowed to move a lot yet*
Thank you, Chione! :D
happy birthday skyril
*frowns* why can't I shoot them?
*puts glasses on*
... I might leave and come back later actually...
Or be insanely distant.
More likely the latter. I'm not in the mood for anymore conflict.
I can only stay about 25 minutes... Actually, it my be a bit less time than that.
*dynamite confetti showers Sky* HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Happy birthday Sky! *pokes her* You're old :3 *hands her a skulcake*
@Luce: At least you're smiling, though? :)
I'm doing good. Mild illness, plus tiredness (mostly because of the former) but good. Thanks for asking. :)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SKYRIL! *glomps*
I'd celebrate, but-
Gotta go for foooood.
*throws cookies at all*
May be back soon-ish.
*waves*
#ChaseForBook9
Thanks Apophis! :}
*drains power back from Johnathon, and after a few seconds he is unable to move*
If it was that easy to kill me, I would have been killed long ago. Probably by a huge mech with a rocket launcher, but y'know. :)
are we seriously ALL SICK? Well, a good number of us?
P.S:
@Skyril: If I don't catch you later, I hope you have/had an awesome birthday, and funness.
*throws confetti*
*runs*
#ChaseForBook9
*falls unable to move releasing a small dragon*
Or a RPG, Dragona?
Confetttttiiiiiiiiiiii! Thank you very much, Zaf! :D
Oooooo 50cal maybe?
RIGHT. I DEDICATE THIS PAGE TO MASS EFFECT AS PER MY TRADITION BECAUSE YEAH.
Also to flying penguins, because they're awesome gravity-defying animals and everyone should have one.
And to my theory that everyone needs a grappling hook for every day life. You can eat your food with them, travel quickly across towns, attach yourself to planes for super-fast travel (other equipment may be needed so you don't well... die)...
But having a grappling hook would be pretty damn awesome.
Lol, Adra! I know! And thank you :D
~noms skulcake happily~
great ded
Adra, I just got better, dont make me ill again xD
Thanks, Taia! ~huggles~ Haven't seen you forever! :]
*stops draining Johnathon's energy and releases a drone to deal with the dragon*
Chione, those would do. ^^
*giggles* I'd hug you but Mevolent set my treehouse on fire and well uhm I got burnt and Rose had to save me and I am in a lot of pain from these lovely burns
I'm off.
Be back later.
Might have news for you all soon, though I'm not too sure. Depends on whether Pablo feels like replying to me, haha. :)
Feel free to e-mail me more often. I miss you guys, and being an author is making it difficult for me to come and talk to you all, whereas e-mails I can reply to whenever I've got a spare moment. :')
But I'm not gonna kill you anyway Dragona :P
*dragon destroys drone and gives energy to johnathon*
If anyone has ever played Just Cause 2 (one of the best games ever, besides well uh... Mass Effect, GTA V, Battlefield... well quite a big list) but the fact is it's an awesome game... you have a grappling hook and I just enjoy attaching cars to planes as they take off and getting in the cars so I float beneath it as its flying.
Ah, Just Cause 2... good times.
Bye Luce!!!!
bye luce
SO how are you lot? ~grins~
*doesnt hug Luce for fear of getting her sick* Okay ily bbz!
Where's Mith? This is perfect payback...
brb
I'm fine Skyril. Planning my Wednesday. I get to leave college at 11:05 so I'm kind of like, "well... what should I do?". I've so far decided for Mass Effect, Just Cause 2 and maybe Grand Theft Auto IV with my friend but yeah. OH AND I HAVE A PAPERCRAFT MODEL TO BUILD.
Anyway. How are you?
AH! I have to go now! I told y'all In couldn't be here long ~headdesk~.
Well... at least I came on like I said I would!
Sorry, folks! Might see y'all tomorrow!
~hugs everyone who wished me happy birthday~
BYE GUYS!
Bye Skyril!
*puts down another shield, deactivating the other one and starts killing more zombies*

Goodbye Skyril *sneezes*

hello mara
@Taia: :)
@No one, really: There's this lyrics videoist who's completely awesome (I have five of his lyrics vids on my Slipknot playlist, which is quite a lot (I never really have much more than that from one person. Other lyrics vdioists of whom I have numerous videos from are Phoenix XZY, Brick Productions (that's a recently changed name, there), theonlyreega, Avenged Sevenfold934 (or something like that) LyricsChick333 (she does a lot of bands), ebmusicman16 and ermmm . . . that's basically it (although I have some from Euphonio100, littlemixVEVO, Mr.Valdo Productions (another recently changed name), feargm and HartRockProductions)), and ermmm . . . I was reading down the words on the lyrics vids on his channel, and I saw the lyrics "We are dead, and tomorrow's canceled beacsue of the things we did yesterday" (yes, he spelt 'cancelled' wrong :P), and I liked the line, so I thought I'd share it with you. :)
#ChaseForBookNine

Hey Ed/Sherlock/John-person, since you keep changing your name a lot... Which one do you want me to include in the name-project?
#ChaseForBook9
Not really a break, more I'm writing things up and am going to go to bed super late again to make sure I get everything done and may possibly get to talk to the people I actually care about more than people really understand.
Also, JCB. Just watched an interview with him and I love him even more.
"I get my kit off quite regularly." I think he and I belong together, to be honest. I'm constantly doing the same - I just don't care;D
(I'mjokingpleasedon'ttakethisseriouslyokay.)
Thanks, Kal. I just hope people will actually like it. Terrifying knowing that I'll be a teen author, *laughs*
BUT I HAVE NO SHORTS OR T-SHIRTS

But I did see the Fabi-thing earlier today, yes. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
ed is my main character fabi
Hey Mara.
I don't know much about what's going on. Being requested to do signings all over the country, however, and have been sent an interview to do and my college are obsessing over it, so I'm rushed off my feet and I just realised that someone else has some of my writing because it was being handed around in English Literature because Kavina cried at it, hahaha. So now I'm missing part of the Imperfect epilogue...!
... Why?
Awww :( Kallie at least he was happy and safe and loved while he lived
[hugs Kallie]
Aw... :-(
RIP kitty.
#ChaseForBook9
*hugs Kal* :/
*sprays everyone with disinfectant* sorry about that btw, I'm not supposed to hug you.
@Mushroom: D:
That sounds stressful. :P
@Kal: :'( Awwww . . .
#ChaseForBookNine
*watches the birds around my treehouse*
yeah, and of course Val V. Cain does just that...
Mmh, it's very stressful. But I'll live. I've got this far, right?:)
*explodes potatoes laughing* HAHAHA IT REPRESENTS DEREK MUHAHAH ROTTEN POTATO: DEREK
I. Am. A. Genius.
*heavy breathing* Because I'm sickkk
*throws a heavy teddy bear at Flame*
HELLO FLAME! :)
@Kal: I suppose it's good he had a good life whilst it lasted. :) Better a short happy life than a long sad one.
Maybe.
It depends on the circumstance.
But in this one, certainly. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Seriously?!
*squeals* *hugs* I'm so happy for you! :D
Aw that you're missing the epilogue, though...
Because instagram is amazing and everyone needs one. *nods* :P
#ChaseForBook9
*giggles exploding the twinkies* KA-BOOMY
[hugs Lucy] You'll be great.
[hugs everybody]
I am starting to randomly not say much, so I may appear to disappear, but it's probably an illusion.
#ChaseForBook9
*nuzzles into her blanket and sits by a fireplace* mmmmm
Hey guys come over here it's H O T
MY FRIEND HAS THE PAGE I WAS LOOKING FOR. S'ALL GOOD.
*hugs anyone who wants hugs* It's more terrifying than anything, Mara. Can you imagine having a fanbase at the age of sixteen...? It's such an innocent, pure age. So young, with so much potential. So much stress from exams and work and the possibility of learning to drive and... It's terrifying, knowing that I'm not like any other teenager in this world. There are barely any people like me. I feel so... excluded. I feel like I'm in the wrong. Hah, hah, hah.
I started braiding flowers one day and then there was... A hierarchy. Flora is the Queen, Rhydian is a Knight, trip is a prince, and there are about 80000 princesses
Luce and "innocent" in the same sentence? Wow. I can say I've seen it all now :3
*hugs Star*
Tbh, I'm not madly in love with Move yet. But I reckon by the end of the night I'll have all the words memorised, so :P
Wings was a better single, imo :(
*hugs Kallie* It's okay :3
And aw about the kitten... :( *hugs*
*opens magazine*
"10 THINGS YOU DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT 1D!!!!!!"
*reads*
"Niall is... IRISH!"
*my reaction ➡️*
#ChaseForBook9
I'm a flower princess but I never got around to adding it to my name. I also have Grand Mage as I am Grand Mage muhaha
I don't really have a dramatic title! [Shrugs] I could make one up, but I'm too lazy. :-P
#ChaseForBook9
*air-hugs Kallie tightly* Muahh
Awww bai if you got to go! You need to meet Niccolò my true love *sounds totes dramatic* oh Romeo Romeo wherefore art thou Romeo? Deny thy father and refuse thy name or if thou will not but sworn my love and I'll no longer be a Capulet, tis but thy name that is my enemy thou art thuself though not a Montague
See you, Kallie! [hugs]
#ChaseForBook9
*hugs Luci* But that means you're unique! :) and having a fanbase at sixteen sounds so... wow. Of course One Direction would know what it feels like XD
Dammititssolikemetobringthemrandomlyintoacoversationimsosorry
You can do this. *nods* Because you are Luciana Scáth! *dramatic music plays in background*
...what the fook does dÃreach mean D:
GUYS I'M SO GOING TO FAIL THIS IRISH TEST OH GOD
#ChaseForBook9
*hugs Kallie* See you!
#ChaseForBook9
Oh man....I did it again
#ChaseForBook9
Hey does anyone know where I can get Skulduggery posters to decorate my new room? ebay??? BTW DEREK I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU FOR THE SUFFERING YOU HAVE CAUSED MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Romeo and Juliet... *gags*
I had to memorize the whole speech Juliet gives! Gaaah i remember walking around at dress rehersal quoting that to anyone I petrified my directors
#ChaseForBook9
Sorry, Rachel. :(
I'm tired, sp I'm going. Fourssss . . .
#ChaseForBookNine
K-kall...no... she... I... *collapses on the floor and sighs*
Bye Starar! *hugs* Sweet dreams!
Honestly First Year is justnjo nudwinfe heq c jiqc hud e heq hudanuowdc. HEWFu KEN YOU NOT
I MISS THE DAYS WHEN ALL I HAD TO WORRY ABOUT WAS WHAT COLOURS TO USE FOR MY DRAWING
#ChaseForBook9
Rachel the only way I know is well signings. I have one from a competition but other then that I'm poster-less. Sorry :/ Derek sometimes lets someone take the poster for a signing and he signs it :) I find it sad I know that and I live in America
#ChaseForBook9
Bye, Kal~!
Hm... Thanks, Mara. <3
Rachel - if you can find an SP poster, then con-f**king-grats. It's almost impossible to buy them. My KotW poster was a gift, the TMS poster I won and the Waterstones York poster was one we begged the Ponytail Guy for c:
They say a messy desk increases creativity and that's such an awesome zombie!!! where did u get that?! The Skulduggery toy figure is pretty awesome, I think they should make more of those...
Bye Star! <3
Bye Star! *sneezes*
That okay :) I'm painting my walls with SP and DW quotes so excited :p want to paint Skulduggery but my friends think I'm a goth with pictures of skulls on my walls :')
I'm lucky for a normal Ameriminion (Val is not normal she went to Ireland) I have the TMS poster, a signed Christmas card from Derek and 2 signed books and the battle pack and met Derek twice via Skype...
Hello. *dramatic music plays and explosions go off as a I walk*
How are ye?
#ChaseForBook9
Thanks guys for the help anyways ;)
Rachel if you wanna know freaky I have one whole wall and half a wall decorated with every comment Derek made to me I need to add one more but its covered in them I did almost do tweets but i lost track
Bye Star [hugs]
I may as well go... I appear to be saying nothing, so... Bye.
#ChaseForBook9
She didn't know who I was... I didnt tell her before she left... KALLISTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh gosh
Oh
Oh wow
Um

Front pages
All your pictures
They make you look so small
THE THIS IS US POSTER IS MADE OUT OF PICTURES OF THE FANS
DIANA
IT'S ABOUT US
I CNA'T BREATHE
#ChaseForBook9
Bye Fabsi. *hugs*
#ChaseDorBook9
I got a Death Bringer poster at a signing, and I won a TMS one, but that's all, sorry Rachel :(
I might actually go...
Bye, guys *hugs*
#ChaseForBook9
WOW that is one AWESOME wall!!!
Bye Mara. *hugs*
Is it me? Do I smell?
#ChaseForBook9
I just...wanna cry... well, I am already but not the point!!!!!!!! D:
bye fabi
hello trip
It is an epic wall! Have you read Last Stand of Dead Men? If you have then yes I am the character who appears in the book.
Bye everyone leaving! *hugs*
*Should be typing up the other two parts of epilogue*
*really can't be bothered*
Aw, Chione. *hugs*
You have a good cry, and then when you're ready, get to work.
Sorry, Downton Abbey quote. XD
But really, what's wrong?
#ChaseForBook9
I have read it and OMG the feels!!!! And no way lol
*sneezes like an elephant again*
Don't go into detail but yes I actually am the character Zafira Kerias. *nods* Derek put me in the book, Adra is Adrsdos and there are others too. I actually had to beg him to put me in my position I really did. And guess what he told me? "i will consider naking you an Elder but I MAY kill you off, good enough?"
Oh bye Fabi!
Aha my life < yours :P Every time I read that book now I will be reminded of you and your epic wall
Bye Lice.
Really though, is it me? Do I smell?
#ChaseForBook9
Adra, are you ill?
#ChaseForBpok9
I asked not to be in LSODM because ITS. *grins*
...
I better not get an ego, else I'll hate myself...!
A teensy weensy bit... -_- MY EYES FEEL LIKE THEY ARE TOO BIG FOR MY SKULL THIS IS NOT OKAY
Lol Luci :3 Egos are fun
Not that I would know
*grins* Now you know who I am! Lol I find it funny I do I still find it hard to believe I'm in LSODM and I read it a few times
Eh, if only you had my tonsil problems. THEN you'd know when a body part feels like it's trying to tear itself out of your body.
#ChaseForBook9
*places carrot on trips head*
Oh and Adra?
#ChaseForBook9
*moves head and carrot falls off*
#ChaseForBook9
*places adra on trips hewad*
*tackles Trip sticks a stick through him and roasts him over the fire* Mmmm I'll save some for Ari
*head
Yes I can't believe you're in one of the most emotionally damaging books Grand Mage *bows*
*tilts head and Adra falls off*
#ChaseForBook9
What.
And I had my tonsils taken out thank you.
*places trip on trips head* (i dont know how)
QUIT ROASTING PEOPLE ZAFIRA
*laughs* When I asked back on Christmas Eve I never imagined that it'd be like it is. I thought: okay war cool I so have a shot he'll say yes. So i asked! And finally was confirmed to appear somewhere in the book and yeah I am in it against last year on October 5th Derek fired me from Grand Mage and well I beat le odds I am in the book
*tilts head and falls off self*
Yeah, but they won't take mine out unless it's tonsillitis, and it never is, they just inflame and make living life really uncomfortable.
Sorry for falling asleep and ruining whatever you had planned last night. But I am intrigued as to what it was. If you want, we could flashback to it?
#ChaseForBook9
*nods in sympathy* It got to the point where I couldn't eat and hardly breathe so...
Er, how do you mean?
No please don't get her knocked up Trip (psst Trip go get Adra knocked up)
WHAT IS GOING ON?
You know last night? With alternate Adra and stuff? And Adra wanted to talk to Trip? We could do that now if you like.
#ChaseForBook9
Haha shame being Grand Mage means you are universally disliked, killed or cast out in shamee..
Nothing John.
(No.) Wasn't planning to Zaf.
#ChaseForBook9
Not always.
#ChaseForBook9
Oooooohhhhh I don't remember, I was just planning on hanging back because RPing two people at the time like that is.. Hard.
Jesus Christ Zafira
Ahem after what side I'm on? Remember who I support I think I'm automatically hated
Omg I solved Niccolò's name problem! AHAHAAH
Who do you support Zaf?
#ChaseForBook9
You did? What was it and how?
#ChaseForBook9
Oh dear...
Right.
*runs back and hides under a table with a blanket*
In 3 min that comment will self destruct so not to spoil
Oh. Yeah. The war.
Adra? *follows her under the table* what's wrong? Apart from being ill.
#ChaseForBook9
I have nothing to do... *her cat walks over* *pets it and cuddles the cat*
Honestly you ought not move around too much... You could pop a stitch
Niccolò fears no longer being himself. Yet he says sometimes his more sadstic names influence him. What if he managed to allow John Smith to influence but not take over fully like Niccolò would be himself but John influences certain things?
True. But I need to walk around, it's important.
#ChaseForBook9
Sorry for disappearing...! But I best be off! Got some maths homework to do before I can finally crawl into bed!
Night, all! *huggles*
bye luce
Bye Luce. See you at some point in the near future.
#ChaseForBook9
Bye Luce
I ded to meditation. That stuff's gooood.
Oh! And F team, also known as fail team. 2-1! Yeah!
#ChaseForBook9
Night Luci!
*nods* True, I suppose... So long a you don't get shot again, it's cool
Uh...
Eloquent dedication there ;3
*sits in treehouse working on paperwork*
Heh, I don't intend on it.
#ChaseForBook9
*sits in lake*
Heh, I don't intend on it.
#ChaseForBook9
Good. So, who was that guy then? In the AU
AlexisP: *walks into Zafira's room* you wanted to kill my boyfriend! I heard you!
Alexis: *storms in* Leave my mother!
AlexisP: /our/ mother
Alexis: My mother!
ZafP: *walks in* Mevolent would want this version of me
I don't know, I was half dead, I didn't really get a good look at him.
#ChaseForBook9
zaf??????????????????????
Oh.... Right.. *ponders*
*stands wincing* Para people get out!
AlexisP: *burns her wrist* enjoy *grabs the para Zafira and walks out*
Alexis: Momma! *goes to and quickly applies the burn cream*
*collapses into bed*
Adra, I have a problem, and I'd like to ask your advice.
#ChaseForBook9
*walks to bottom of treehouse* zaf?
Well this is new.... *swings around, cross legged* What's up?
