Nerdy Dalek

As was recently pointed out to me, "Nerdy Dalek" is an anagram of my name, so I suppose it's only fitting that my birthday should be the day my Doctor Who story comes out on ebook. The Mystery of the Haunted Cottage is a Tenth Doctor adventure and I had unimaginable fun writing it. For those of you who don't read ebooks, fret not- a physical book, containing all eleven stories by eleven writers, will be arriving late next month.

Ah yes, my birthday. I am 39 today. Some people might worry about reaching that age — just one more birthday till 40, after all. But not me. I shall live forever. And I don't mean in a metaphorical sense. I don't mean I'll live forever in the hearts and minds of my readers. I mean I will literally live forever, drawing as I do from your pain and suffering.

Your pain makes me strong.

Today is the day I knuckle down and officially start Book 9. I've been writing bits and pieces of it for the last few weeks — I've got close to 10,000 words done — but today it kicks off properly. October 23rd is, of course, the day Skulduggery died, hundreds of years ago. Once again, I think it's only fitting that I begin his final book on such a date. Poignant, even.

Sniffle.

Ah gracious, here we go again. *sips more tea*

Noelle said...

Tbc- I'm still here and will be here so if anyone shows up... Give it about five minutes tops but I'm here


*sips more tea*

Jophiel said...

Then I guess you're staying, Adra.

Dragona Pine said...

I'm here I just poofed.

Noelle said...

Yeah! Ofc! Tea?

Jophiel said...

Spirit is on... I'm crying...

((Back

Noelle said...

Hello Zaf

Noelle said...

Gee whiz *pours a bit of vodka in her tea* *sips*

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

*comes down quietly*

Noelle said...

*raises cup* ay

Jophiel said...

*Takes tea and skulcake gratefully* Thank you, Adra...

Hey Zaf. *Waves and hugs herself* Rhy and I went on an adventure last night... We were both in my head... I found an Echo Stone she left me...

Noelle said...

((Is like to make an announcement-

If any of you all are gonna get a bit of St. Jude in your area, please stay safe and inside and away from windows!!

Where is it, southern Britain? Idk))

Noelle said...

Of course!


Oh, uh- alright..?

Noelle said...

((I think... Idk.... Hmm. Hang on I'm trying to convert kilometres to miles..))

Jophiel said...

(St. Jude...?))

*Bangs her head on something* You know how much I hated her, yeah? She said to me that she couldn't stand to let the kid die. She was talking about Lorcan... She didn't want him dead so she sacrificed herself... And now, I can't do this. *Glares at Adra and nothing happens*

Noelle said...

((Like, a hurricane I think. I didn't read the whole article))

*pauses*

I'm just going to ignore the fact that if your magic worked, is be in excruciating pain right now.

Right.

Well, I suppose that's about right... But you aren't powerless. *shrugs* I try not to rely on magic too much. Physical hand to hand is my preference

Jophiel said...

(Ouch....))

*Snickers* True. You would be in a whole heap of pain... Sorry. But it proves my point of not being able to do anything...

I didn't need to rely on hand-to-hand because I could stop people from approaching and kill them super easily... Just with a simple muscle movement...

I need to get my dark side back. I don't even think I could kill someone anymore....

Noelle said...

*nods* Balance is good... Where is she though?

Jophiel said...

She's dead. She destroyed herself and gave all that power to Lorcan, healing him, saving his life... *Huddles into a tighter ball*

Noelle said...

Oh. Of course.. Okay..

Jophiel said...

Well, at least Lorcan's alive...

Emerald Melody said...

*Drew emerges from the forest with scratches and blood dripping from his mouth. He seems out of breath. He stops just in front of Adra and Death*

Drew: Kill me.

Noelle said...

What?

Jophiel said...

What? *Stands up a looks over Drew, her eyes widening* DREW!? What happened!?

Jophiel said...

First off Drew, I am now physically incapable of killing people.
Secondly, I am mentally incapable of killing people, let alone friends.

I can't kill you, matey.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

((*dies*))

Emerald Melody said...

Drew: I... I shifted and I've killed in the past few hours. For the first time in over 100 years.

I... wounded Leo. I'm full of blood.

I can't go through that detox again. So just kill me now.

Jophiel said...

((Zaf. No dying... Why did you just die anyway...?))

Noelle said...

You're going to have to- I healed Leo. He's fine.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

((*cries* NJ killed me))

Willow Storm said...

Abraham De Lacy
Guiseppe Casey
Thomas O'Malley
O'Malley the alley cat

Noelle said...

Mara is that the Aristocats

Jophiel said...

No. We're not killing you. *Walks up to Drew carefully and hugs him* Dude. You shall not die. People are killed all the time, the world would overpopulate itself if we didn't. *Hugs him tighter and rests her head on his shoulder* It's okay. People slip. They hurt themselves. They hurt others. That's how the world rolls. Leo, I'm sure, will forgive you. Where is he?

Emerald Melody said...

*Drew hugs Death*

Drew: I don't know, I just remember the blood... all the blood...

Jophiel said...

It's okay, Drew. *Smiles and kisses Drew's forehead* All will work itself out. If you're determined enough, for Ellie, you'll do the detox again. And we'll be here. We'll help you. You and Lorcan can do it together! Think of it as a bonding thing! *Pats Drew's back and first let go of him* I love you, don't forget that.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Alexis: *lays in snow* Ugh

Noelle said...

*after Rose moves, hugs Drew tightly*

*Looks around* Alexis...? *Walks into the snow* Alexis!?

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Alexis: *looks up* Hi Rose

Jophiel said...

*Peers down at Alexis and frowns* Are you alright there...? It's kinda cold... *Passes over her leather jacket*

Emerald Melody said...

*Lorcan watches Alexis and Death in the snow from afar. He looks down at his fingers and can see bits of silver running through his veins. He sighs*

*Drew hugs Adra and looks at her seriously*

Drew: You need to lock me up. I need to do detox.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Alexis: *puts on jacket* Thanks....

Noelle said...

I'm can get that for you... What do you need?

Jophiel said...

*Looks up and smiles softly at Lorcan* Hey, buddy, come on over here! The frozen water's perfect! ... Except being absolutely freezing!!! *Laughs softly and hugs Alexis, trying to keep the younger girl warm*

Emerald Melody said...

Drew: Just a cage. Extra chains and... phsssst, I can't even remember what I had last time.

Noelle said...

Food and water. Okay. Takes a disc from her bag and sets it on the ground* In.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Alexis: I'm okay!

Emerald Melody said...

*Lorcan smiles softly before shaking his head*

Lorcan: Um... I can't girls, I have to do something. Maybe later.

*Lorcan walks off into the snow covered woods*


*Drew steps into the disc*

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Alexis: Ugh I don't see him awake!

Jophiel said...

You're gonna catch a cold, Ally. *Kisses her hair and laughs* I don't want you turning into snow!! *Laughs again then looks over at Lorcan. Frowns and stands up. Starts to follow him* Come along if you want, Alexis.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Alexis: *follows Rose*

Noelle said...

*they are in a smaller room way below the lab* *there's a bed in the corner and a chair in the middle and food in boxes and planet of water and books*

It's not much, but it's secure. These walls are twenty feet of solid metal. And bound. Nothing gets in, nothing gets out.

Emerald Melody said...

*Lorcan stands in a clearing as a portal opens and ParaLeo steps out*

PLeo: Well hi there Lorcan! What can I do you for?

Lorcan: I need to go home and see my dad. Somethings gone wrong and I need his help. I just need to get somewhere where I don't hurt anyone.

PLeo: Your dad will be delighted!!


*Drew hugs Adra*

Drew: Thank you so much, it's perfect.

Jophiel said...

*Steps into the clearing and folds he arms* Oi. Lorcan and Leo. He ain't going anywhere. *Holds onto Lorcan's arm and an idea occurs to her* Judi lives on in that dimension... *Laughs in shock* Lorcan, I'll say hi to your dad for you. *Ducks past ParaLeo and through the portal*

Jophiel said...

*her

Noelle said...

*hands him a mobile* There's enough food in here for years. Water as well. There's a bathroom and washer and television. Uhm... Clothes as well.

Don't worry about air either- you're good with that.

But yeah. I'll check in everyday...
Don't worry about breaking anything either. I can replace it.

I think that's all...

*nods* *hugs* be good, Drew

Noelle said...

*nods* If you get hurt, call me. I'm speed dial one. *steps back through the portal, closing it and putting the disc inher bag*

Jophiel said...

((First, I'm in the other dimension, secondly, SINCE WHEN AND WHY DONT PEOPLE TELL ME THESE THINGS BECAUSE I SLEEP WHEN YOU GUYS ARE RP-ING?! IT AINT FAIR!!!!

Ahem... Sorry about that...))

Jophiel said...

(Sorry!! If it messes it up, I never jumped through there. SORRY EM!! *Huggles* Okay, I never jumped through the portal. I did, however, get the idea of jumping through the portal.))

Noelle said...

((Sorry? You weren't there for a few days? I didn't think that..))

Jophiel said...

(Just, never mind. I know now...

I may leave, I think... :/))

Heh, heh...

Noelle said...

This is awkward

Emerald Melody said...

(No Rose it's okay lol I didn't really know what I was doing but you jumping in just threw me off lol I'll think of something!)

*Drew paces around the area*

Drew: Well looks like it's just you and me now...

oh goody

Star Inkbright said...

Don't you just love it when you have a whole half term to do whatever you want and then you end up doing nothing of importance? C:

I've spent at least seven hours doing this jigsaw puzzle of mine today. Possibly around eight hours. Possibly less. I've also found Wally. :)

Noelle said...

((Eh, was that to me, or him and his wolf?))

Star you are so accomplished

Might be here, might not.

((Ooooooohkay))

Quite alright, Star.

Hmm. Sir hasn't been here today yet..

*sips tea*

I can show you the worlddd

Niccolò Croatoan said...

*runs into Blogland* Quick! Somebody, stab my neck!

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*sighs*
Well aren't we a lively group? I daresay, all this talk is giving my a headache

Niccolò Croatoan said...

Oi! You there! I need you to stab my neck with something sharp, right now! Quickly! Come on! Please!

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

... *takes a knife and stabs them*

*looks at them worriedly*

Niccolò Croatoan said...

Ah, thank you. Thank you so very much. Tell everyone I'm sorry I'm leaving, and that they shouldn't come after me, ok? *coughs a bit, and after a few moments, dies*

#ChaseForBook9

Niccolò Croatoan said...

((Well, I'm rather surprised that that worked, to be perfectly honest.))

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*her eyes widen and she kneels by him* What?

What?

Oh gods, you're dead, aren't you?

Jophiel said...

(Wtf...? *Laughs in shock/horror/YOLO*))

Noelle said...

Oh my God....

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

((Aretha/Niccolo...? What...?))

#ChaseForBook9

Niccolò Croatoan said...

((To clarify, that was, in fact, me- well, one of my names- although you won't know that by looking at me. I've shifted, and I am not wearing my coat.))

#ChaseForBook9

Jophiel said...

(What's going on!?))

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Whats going on? Wheres Niccolò?!

Jophiel said...

(Oh. Thank you for clarifying... WHY THE HELL DID IT HAPPEN!?))

Noelle said...

((okay....))

*shakes their shoulders*

*facepalms* I'm an idiot. Who the heck is this, anyway?
*frowns*
Who did I just kill?

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

((Im done so now you killed him?! Thats IT I'm done I'm going I cant stand this!))

Noelle said...

((Were you all seriously SILENT?!?!?!?

I WAS HERE

AND SO WERE YOU??!?!?!?

UGH I HATE YOU ALL))

Jophiel said...

(Zaf, you can bring him back, remember?))

Noelle said...

((Zaf quit throwing a hissy fit

unless I'm wrong, which I probably am, that was one of his names- not Niccolo.))

Jophiel said...

(Love you Adra!!!!!!

Actually, I was sleeping. I cans actually feel when someone posts something good and if it's strange enough, I'll wake up. That and with Chicken Smoothie. The same thing happens there too...))

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

((Yes but I won't because I'm sick of Croatoan somehow dying or close to it! So no you won't be seeing me do that he would have to beg me why should I? To only know Aretha will kill him again? No.))

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

((Adra, my hands were covered in pumpkin slime. I wasn't here. And idk if I'm here now, because unless I'm really, really, wrong, something is going to happen that I don't have the patience for.))

#ChaseForBook9

Niccolò Croatoan said...

((Actually, I ought to warn you all now- any conventional attempts to bring me back will not work. It is possible, however it will be fantastically inconvenient/difficult.

It was one of my names, but it was also me. The other name was simply dominant at the time.))

#ChaseForBook9

Jophiel said...

(Well, I kill me off all the time and I don't see anyone doing that over me... I can't even use magic anymore!! I'm a Mortal, pretty much now...

People die. People come back alive. It's how the world works. Or, at least Blogland for the second part...))

Niccolò Croatoan said...

((Zafira, if/when I die it is no fault of Aretha's, and I shall not engage in any argument over it. I am simply not overly fond of life, if you hadn't noticed. Many of my names feel the same.))

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

((Whoa- okay... That wasn't a serious I hate you all.))

*frowns, reaching over and touching his forehead, doing her best to read residual energy or consciousness*

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

((Exactly. Fuck. You. Goodbye deal I'm gone because once again Aretha killed him. Thank you Ari I'm gone.))

Niccolò Croatoan said...

((You won't find any energy. My soul is gone.))

#ChaseForBook9

Jophiel said...

(Zaf, calm down. There's no reason to get pissed. He's just a character. A very powerful and well written character nevertheless. There is no reason. So calm down.))

Niccolò Croatoan said...

((Thank you, Death.))

#ChaseForBook9

Jophiel said...

(And this is why we need freaking Ren.

Oh wait.

I'm in the parallel universe.

I can take him and Judi back with me.

HELLS YEAH!))

Jophiel said...

(Not a problem, Signor Croatoan. *Salutes and bows*))

Noelle said...

*frowns*

Hmm...

((Hollah Rose))

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

((See? No patience. Gone before I rant. :-) Or start crying. Possibly screaming. Or even laughing. Idk.

I have Ghastly and Tanith on my pumpkin. Now for China, methinks.

G'bye.))

#ChaseForBook9

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

((Look I'm sick and tired of you dying Niccolò I had too much to deal with characters dying and I mean it I hate you Aretha for this you better fucking find a way on your own because I'm not helping. I'm done with you and taking his life. Good day.))

Noelle said...

((Fabi I wanna see your pictures of the pumpkinssss! *hugs* Bye-))

Administrator Kestrel LeStarre-Sparrowhawk The Celestial said...

Hi all!

Um, Death, if you're having issues with your magic, I may be able to help. *pulls out pain regulator and knife*

((So is NiccolĂł dead or not?))

Niccolò Croatoan said...

((It won't be that simple either- Ren would not be able to retrieve my soul on his own. If you all recall the plot with the demons, when Aretha and I died then, I sold my soul to Saccharine to bring us back. You'd have to speak with her or another of the demons before you could do anything with it. But none of you would know I'd sold my soul unless Aretha told you.))

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

((Zaf you don't exactly have a say in what happens... As much as you like to think that because you love him you have a say, you don't. And it isn't fair to bully them because you don't like it))

Administrator Kestrel LeStarre-Sparrowhawk The Celestial said...

((Zaf, leave Aretha alone. She's a person too, and NiccolĂł's just a character, no matter what it may seem.))

Noelle said...

((Yeah... Demons are mine, FYI... Putting that out there- if any if you start going after some of my babies I'll kill ye))

Goodbye, Moss. My apologies for the mess that I seem to have inspired.))

#ChaseForBook9

Jophiel said...

((Zaf. You never say that you hate someone. Ever. Never in your life. I've had so many people say that they hate me and look where I am today? Balancing on a knife. It's either fall off left and die it fall off right and die.

Calm the fuck down. It's just words on a white screen and there's no bloody reason to get so worked up over it.))

Noelle said...

*stands up* Um...

So...

What now?

Administrator Kestrel LeStarre-Sparrowhawk The Celestial said...

((Adra, I have a character I want to experiment with if anyone feels like doing a plot to, like, retrieve NiccolĂł's soul or something. Otherwise, no clue.))

Noelle said...

((It's not really our decision, I'm gathering, Kes... Idk if Nic wants to be gone gone or not. I'm guessing not))

Jophiel said...

(Kes, wonderful to see you again, but I do seem to be... In a parallel universe.))

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

((So what you're not gonna let him come back ever? This isn't right Ari. You screwed up me. Why?! Why can't we bring him back? You know this isn't helping me Ari escpially how my life is irl I don't need to come here and see you did this. I'm balling.))

Noelle said...

((Zaf! Stop trying to guilt her!))

Niccolò Croatoan said...

((I, personally, would rather be gone, although Aretha will likely attempt to retrieve my soul in spite of me. I doubt I'd have gotten away with dying at all if she was around, in all honesty.))

#ChaseForBook9

Administrator Kestrel LeStarre-Sparrowhawk The Celestial said...

((I'm just really creativity dead right now, so that's the first thing I thought of. Although it's likely we'll have another fight on our hands soon anyway...))

Niccolò Croatoan said...

((Zafira, I'll not undo what's been done. I may return, or I may not. Please, for your own sake, try to calm down.))

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

((Yeah, that's okay, Kes. *nods* I am as well))

Administrator Kestrel LeStarre-Sparrowhawk The Celestial said...

((Death, so what? :P))

((Zaf, stop. Now. It's her character, she can DI whatever the he'll she wants with him.))

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

((So what I lose someone? So now what? I sit here.))

Jophiel said...

(I had to come on...

Well, I'm feeling absolutely horrible.

I'm out.

Good day everyone. *Vanishes angrily*))

Star Inkbright said...

You don't MAKE character do anything. You set up situations and then watch how they react to them. When writing a character I know well, I spent a lit of my time trying to be true to them and getting worried that I'm not making them them-like enough. Ari didn't kill Niccolo. She was being Niccolo, and Niccolo decided to die, so it had to happen. She doesn't want him dead. Sometimes, characters just do these things, and you can't stop them without making the story fake.

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

*sighs*

Try not to take this the wrong way, Kes, but I'm so sick of people saying that. ((I mean with love!)) like... It's gone, but it was flawed in its own ways as well..

Administrator Kestrel LeStarre-Sparrowhawk The Celestial said...

((Zaf, you do realise that that describes what being a Skulduggery fan is, right?

But it's really not something to get this worked up about.))

Noelle said...

((Good god this is ridiculous.
Just saying here-
You weren't the only one feeling stuff. I'm sad- like, characters do that- Augustus Waters did. Sadness. But you don't have a right to do this))

Niccolò Croatoan said...

((I wouldn't know how that felt. Aretha would. And I know full well it is not a good subject. So does she. But what's done is done. And with all due respect, you are making others uncomfortable. If you feel the need to rant or complain, you have Aretha's email, but it will not change anything.))

Although I'm contemplating just not showing up if Zaf doesn't chill out..

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

((I...cant deal with this. Not this. Irl I can't. Its too emotional because it proved me right in something irl. And it didn't help.))

Star Inkbright said...

My friend had to make her character commit suicide, because his girlfriend had died and he couldn't handle it, and she loved hin so much and she was crying buckets and it took half the,awesomeness out of her story and half the story out of her story, but she had to do it. She brought him back, though. :)

((Adra, I know. It used to irritate me so much when people said it, but now I know what they meant, especially because of my eight month exile I didn't have the transition period.

So, sorry, and I've been trying to avoid saying it, but I needed to say it just once.))

Brb

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

((Ari...fine. But you better not be mad because I really cannt take this.))

Noelle said...

Yeh I know, Kes- everyone says it *nods* it just.. There isn't anything we can do, any way to please anyone. We've tried.

Star Inkbright said...

@Zaf: Think of it as happening in a book. :) Authors traumatise people all the time. :P

I miss old Blogland. But new Blogland is Maratasmafectic too, so I'm good. :)

You are welcome, Niccolo the Dead. :)

Noelle said...

Maratasmafetic?

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

Sometimes, when I have a lot of emotions, I snap, and it's like a mental explosion of words, ideas, feelings, colors, sounds, thoughts. It's so bright... I force another layer of myself to the surface, but it's like trying to put a lid on a star. I laugh, cry, and yet make no sound. I wonder why I try. I force the spirals into words and lines in an effort to explain, to show someone else who I am.

There's a twinge of annoyance, but it's drowned out by the hurt, the ice, the hot and cold, the sadness, the anger, the yellow and red and purple and black and colors that only exist in my imagination. There's a floaty feeling and a sinking feeling. There's a queasy feeling, too, like I'm going to vomit. There are organic paint-splatter-esque shapes, and it's bigger on the inside and darker at the end. It's powerful like the ocean, and yet so trapped... It doesn't fit in my head...

Y'all probably think I'm crazy, now...

I'm not. I'm a poet and an artist and a writer and a musican, and people say I have too much imagination, but they bore me, and I don't want to be like them. On the outside, I'm quiet, but on the inside, I'm a person, and I feel pain as much as the rest of you.

I'm Moss, I'm Fabi, I'm Marie-Louise. Nice to meet you.

Back.

By "I miss the old Blogland" I'm not even referring to the RP like most people are. Its just the fighting.

But I'm done talking about it now.

@Adra: It's a word Mara made up once. :) Think it was Mara. It means awesome, around abouts.

Hi Fabi! I love that. *claps*

Fabi... Oh my god *holds tightly* Of course you're human, you are like the rest of us. Your emotions are completely understandable- I occasionally feel the same thing... *hugs*
