MERRRRRRRRRY CHRISTMAS!
I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas day, whether you celebrate it or not. I hope this day is fun and filled with laughter and that you spend it surrounded by friends and family.
And to set you on your way, here is the Twelve Days of Fandom video (actually two videos, because apparently Youtube can't handle that much editing in one go). Thanks to everyone who took part — it has taken up two days of my life putting all this together, but it was so worth it. Some of you can really sing! And some of you really CAN'T. The videos I saw were funny, sweet, genuine, wacky, impressive, silly, and some of them were downright CUTE (Melissa and her doggy — I mean COME ON!)
The lyrics were written by myself and Laura Jordan (not Valkyrie-Laura, but an awesome Laura just the same!) and it features a special appearance by one Miss Holly Smale.
Have a great Christmas, everybody.

Ah, there you are!
Feeling better?
*jumps out the tree house and runs into the woods to live out the rest of her days as a nudist*
I have no idea what that is but I have to go so bye.
*hums*
I should dedicate.
I dedicate this page to…
To…
Lu.
Plain and simple.
I dedicate it to her for all the nuances of her character, like her love of Skittles and the way she gets really excited when she reads things with good use of language devices.
I dedicate it to her for the big things about her, like her infallible love for everyone in Blogland. Like how she loves to write and support others and how she is true to herself.
I dedicate this page to Lu, because she's my sister and I love her, and we all owe her that much; at least.
(*raises a tankard of ale*
Hear hear.)
Bye Robin!! *huggles* Nudist :3
*raises glass* I agree wholeheartedly. Hear hear!
Repeated syntactical structure. And it's triadic structure. The minor sentence there too. And the discourse structure; it's explicit. And the lexis - plain and simple with an extra polysyllabic Spark, because Sparky's not Sparky without the incredible lexical choices. *huggles*
You need to stop making me cry with these deds, man:P
Else we'll have to start a war with deds and tally up who deds to the other the most;)
(Ah, Luciana!
*gives her a firm pat on the back*)
*goes to put away her hot chocolate mug*
I don't know half of what you said, Luce :3
That was THE BEST thing I have seen EVER
(Jubilance!
*gives her a firm pat on the head*)
And also HIIIII!!!

(*gets tackled*
Merry ChristHUCK!)
My wounds? They were, until I went and got shot in the arm today
SPARKY IS A LINGUISTIC GENIUS
. . . Ah.
*grimaces*
Msd because Dw Xmas special comes on in like 5ish minutes soooo yeah
Indeed. Merry Christmas to me.
You are too, Luce!
*laughs* Not really, but thanks Adra ^-^
Well, Christmases are rarely NORMAL affairs in Blogland.
*sits on the couch*
I hope you get well soon.
Thank you, Precocious. *Sits with her drink again*
Sparky?
(*pokes Luci*)
I ran into you...
*waves cautiously*
Hullo again.
*nods*
*Sips more hot chocolate*
Yes, and my laptop died and I had a small crisis.
Are you okay?
Got shot... On Christmas. It was, surprisingly, not fun. But thank you for caring
*flicks an invisible speck of dust off her shoulder*
*frowns slightly*
Do you want some painkillers?
*Smirks at Precocious*
I've taken some- but it's going to hurt a bit, no matter what I do, so..
*looks surprised*
Did you just smirk at me?
Yes I did
*looks at her for a moment*
*then shakes her head as if trying to clear it*
*and then addresses Sparky*
Thank you for the hot chocolate. It was lovely.
(Doctor who soon..)
No worries.
*smiles*
*looks around*
… Roof.
Snow angels on the roof...
No no no no n on on on no no n o kn wxjensb
NOOO ITS COMING IM GONNA DIE
(I am EXCITED for Peter Capaldi, y'all.
Matt Smith leaving will be sad, but . . . come on . . . Peter Capaldi!)
What?
I just spoke to my other Grandma. She's doing well, and is working on approximately a million sewing projects. :-)
...
I'm not sure why I pointed that out.
Anyway, hello.
I finished the book I was screaming over earlier, but it didn't really end, so I have to get the seeeeequel.
(Is anyone going to be staying on while it is airing?
For reasons I'd rather not disclose, I'm not able to watch it today . . .
and if everyone's going to leave, I suppose I should as well . . .)
Ahhiz here we go
On the . . . roof?
Snow angels?
On the roof?
(I'll be here, Anni.
*Hugs Fabi* That's good!!))
(Awh.
*hugs Adra*)
*climbs onto the roof*
Yeah!
*lies down and makes a snow angel*
*on the roof*
*Sips her cocoa, and drops a tablet into it* *Drinks the rest* Ah... Yum.
I can't watch it, either. Not even sure when it's on in my time zone.
I might not be able to stay long, though.
*Slowly makes her way up, and does a one-winged angel*
*looks up at the roof*
Hrm.
I don't know . . . I don't want to get my new waistcoat dirty.
(Adra, are you a fan of Final Fantasy?)
Toss on one of my old jackets.
(Do you mean...
SEPHIROTH)
Im crying already
(Yes. VII is my Favorite... I want to play it and ARGH. I watch videos on YouTube and things and SO MUCH GOD)
*She gets up*
Rubbish angel.
FINAL FANTASY IS PERFECTION OH MY GLOB
*tosses on one of Sparky's old jackets*
*climbs gingerly up to the roof*
(Yes, I mean . . .
SEPHIROTH.)
((Aaaaaand, I have to go again. Sorry! [hugs]))
(ADRA.
ADRA, I OWN VII.
I NEVER USE IT.
GAH.
IF WE WERE ACTUAL REAL-LIFE BUDDIES I WOULD GIVE IT TO YOU AS A CHRISTMAS GIFT.
So just know that it's the thought that counts.
*hugs Adra*)
(Goodbye, Fabi!)
*sits up*
Come into the middle, over here.
(Fabi! *hugs*
I would love you forever Annika)
(I'm quite sorry that we don't live next to one another, Adra.)
*comes to the middle*
*lays down*
*makes a spindly little snow angel*
*tacklehugs Sparky*
*gets tackle hugged on the roof I guess*
… My snow angel.
*Snow angels*
Wbd
*laughs* SPAAAAAAARKYYYYYYYYYY, *pokes nose* Is your nose as squishy as mine?
*sits up*
*starts wiping off the snow*
No…. My nose is pretty solid.
*squints at the ground*
… Are those…
*gets up and pulls Lu out of the snow*
What I think they are?
*points*
Snow?
My nose is squishy, look, *pokes own nose*
*laughs*
WAIT WHAT ARE WE LOOKING AT
*makes a wriggly little snow angel*
*starts brushing herself off again*
Well, that's enough of that.
*hops downstairs*
Shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes…
*pulls my special boots on and runs outside*
*sits in the snow*
YAY SNOW!:D
*tugs my hood on and slips on some gloves*
Vampires.
*watches*
*hurries back into the house*
*still unconsciously brushing herself off*
*and tugs on her Doc Martins*
What??
*Puts on her own boots and shoulders her bag* *She puts a couple symbols with a pen, and pulls out a sword, then a shotgun*
merry Christmas to us
*skids to a stop and looks back*
Am I going to get some help here, or-
*gets tackled by one of the vampires*
*rolls through the snow with it*
Get offa me!
*growls and tries to get a solid grip on it to shock it*
*She grabs her sword, facing off another* Hey there big guy..
*pulls her van out of her pocket*
*in the form of a black scarf*
*and taps a symbol to transform it into a large black satchel*
*begins to produce stakes, garlic, crucifixes, and salt water*
Please, people, I'm a MONSTER HUNTER, recall?
*walks in*
Well this looks like fun.
Hel!
Would love to help, but... *thinks about ending of ITS*
Not in Luciana's nature to help. :')
Oh God
I'm about to watch the Reichenbach Fall
I'm not prepared for this D':
Msd
(There's at least seven vamps here it's not that simple Anni)
*manages to keep my hand against it's shoulder long enough to shock it*
*shuffles backwards and rolls to my feet*
… I should invest in a long range weapon...
Hel!!
*She knees it, then tackles the creature, rolling with it, stabbing where she can*
*leaps at one of the vampires*
Vampire: *seizes her coat*
*drags her forward into the snow*
*wrestles with the vampire*
*easily yanks his arm behind his back*
*and slams the stake upward into his chest*
Vampire: *shrieks in pain*
*slams the vampire down into the snow*
*where he bursts into a puff of dust*
*leaving a charred and blackened stake*
Hm.
Must've been a western vampire.
*distantly starts wiping dust off her hands*
*leans against wall*
I'll just... I'll just stay here until you're done...
*puts foot up on wall*
*draws away from the fight for a moment*
Hello, Hel!
Well, that certainly was a-
Vampire: *leaps out of nowhere*
*tackles her*
*and slams her to the ground*
AH!
*slams her elbow into his jaw*
Vampire: Urk!
*throws a snowball at Sparky from on the roof* :3
*After ages of tumbling, she feels teeth sink into her throat like butter* *She opens her mouth* *Screams, and elbows back*
Sparks! No-L! Zath! Woo, I'm cheering for you.
Well it'd be kinda pointless for me to cheer for the vampires anyway...
*gets hit in the back of the head by the snowball and flinches*
… Good thing I had my hood up.
*looks back at the fight*
IIII'd…
Better help them.
*wrestles violently with the vampire*
RRRRRRRRRRAH!
*grips his head in both hand*
*and*
*snaps*
*his*
*head*
*to*
*the*
*left*
*CRACK*
*the vampire slumps*
*limp*
*to the ground*
*Grits her teeth, grabs the shotgun and whips it back into its face, cracking it*
*It falls back, and she aims, shoots it's head off*
*gasps, one hand on her throat* Ah.
*bolts over to Adra*
Here, let me…
*picks her up and carries her into the medical bay in Chester*
I trust you can take care of this on your own?
*drags herself out from under the vampire*
*lies there in the snow*
*panting and gasping*
That wasn't necessary, but... Thank you...
GOODNIGHT EVERYONE! *huggles everyone*
Night L! Sleep well. *huggles*
Just…
Be careful, okay? I gotta get back out there.
*opens the window and leaps out of it, rolling once I hit the ground*
*scrambles through the snow*
*running to get back to the house*
Vampire: Growr?
*roundhouse kicks him*
(bye L!!!)
*Growls, pouring a type of acid over her wound* *Hisses*
Is that....a....vampire?
woah, are people here? hallooowww????????!!!!!!!!!
*runs full speed at the vamp chasing Anni*
*pulls my sword out and runs straight into it, forcing it back a step or two*
Hey!
Is the lake saltwater?
Good morning, afternoon, evening, or other, Bl-
*sees the vampire*
*sighs*
On Christmas? Truly? Some creatures have no class.
*She wraps it back up, then runs back out*
*Grabs her gun and begins to shoot with accurate precision*
Vampire: *leaps out of nowhere and grab her arm*
AH!
*tries to tug her arm out of his grip*
Vampire: *slams her against the wall*
*teeth*
*fangs*
*blood*
NO!
*struggles to reach a stake*
*can't reach it*
*her heart is pounding like fireworks*
*FLASHBACK*
Algernon: Don't fight back, monster girl.
Don't
fight
back.
*FLASHBACK ENDS*
*reaches the stake*
*slams it into the vampire's chest*
Vampire: *turns to dust*
. . .
. . .
*sinks to the ground*
*breathing heavily*
wugyciuecgysudcouhd so many people... also ermergerd vampire.
*grabs
Sir!!!!
*forces the vamp into the lake*
Hey Sir
*begins to violently wipe the dust and snow off her clothes*
*stands up*
*straightens her coat*
*and tries to look intelligent*
*takes out a moist towelette*
*and throughly wipes her hands as she enters Sparky's house*
WHY NO HELLO FOR ME?
*cries*
(Hullo, Sir.)
(Hullo, Emily.)
Hello Sir, hey Emily.
Should I... Should I try and take on one of those vampires?
(Hi Sir!)
*She finds the other she was fighting* *She slashes at it, grabbing it's jacket and hauling herself onto it's shoulders, and flips it over*
(OMG Hel you're adorable)
Greetings, Ms. Sanders, Braginsky, Kerias, Barnosky, Sky, and Dark.
I'm gonna assume its wise not to
*leans against the wall*
*wiping off her hands without realizing she's doing it*
*and taking short, quick breaths*
*whispers* Coward . . . coward . . . coward . . . stay out of it, you'll only get in the way.
*she pins the vampire, pressing the tip against it's throat and feels a punch on her ribs* *hisses*
(N'aw, thanks Adra. You've always been adorable)
So, Sir. How are you today?
*sits in a ball sad*
Standard, Ms. Sky. I do hope that you are doing well?
*She rolls off, then swings, and in a solid move, the head rolls off*
Mother.... *Holds her side*
Well, Sir Reingington, I'm quite enjoying this day. It's very relaxing. Why thank you for asking.
Uh, sorry Annika. What was that? Who's the coward?
*slowly plods forward*
Can I help at all?
I'm not much of a healer . . .
*shouts* Sparky!
Sparky, are you a healer?
Zaf, would you care to join in Sir and I's conversation?
*Doctor Precocious looks over at Helena*
*and smiles sadly*
We must not have met before.
*smiles sweetly at Doctor Precocious*
Nope, never before.
If you wish.
It was nothing, Ms. Sky.
Ms. Kerias, I do hope that you did not buy that ball from an IKEA.
Of course I wish Zaf! I always love talking to you. What's up?
*her cell phone buzzes in her pocket*
*looks down quickly*
I . . . I should take this.
*checks the caller ID*
*turns a little pink*
*and moves a little ways away to take the call*
Oscar...
*She pushes herself up, her ribs sore* Ah... Hell. *She rubs at her neck*
Oh Sir.....and I'm fine Helena just thinking of what I have to do paperwork wise....Sanctuary business
*talking fervently on the phone*
*comes back*
*tucking her phone into her pocket*
I rather think I should be going, now.
Ah, well Zaf, if you need any help then just ask.
*smiles* I could ise help
*turns to Zaf excitedly*
Really? What can I do?
Goodbye then, friend... *Holding her side, she begins to trudge back to her lab*
I'm not sure yet actually I have tons of paperwork...
Goodbye Annika!
Well Zaf, when you've worked out what you want me for, just call.
*skips towards the lake*
*returns to her van*
*hops into the back*
*checks her watch*
Maybe . . .
*climbs into the driver's seat*
*and sets off down the road*
Maybe . . .
*glances down*
*and realizes she's been flicking dust off her pants for five minutes*
*shame-facedly clutches the steering wheel with both hands*
(I am forced to egress . . .)
Good bye, Ms. Barnosky.
(Bye Anni-)
Hold me
(I apologize Helena I'm like trying to focus but with DW....)
*looks at phone* AHA! I got it! I need help with a case.
Adra, are you okay?
(That's okay Zaf. Take as long as you need)
*skips back*
Yes?
*screams* HOLD ME
*runs over to Adra and wraps my arms around her*
What's up? What do I do?!
Adra did you...omg
*Sobs, hugging Hel tightly* not... Not you
*hugs*
Okay, shush... Calm down.
I'm just over here if you need me.
*walks back to Zaf*
What do you need, chief?
*blinks*
Ms. Dark? What is the matter?
*Curls up in the snow, and sticks her face in the ice*
I..oh right. Theres a thing...i have a case on someone murdering a mortal, beleieved Faceless Ones follower
...
*sighs*
*scratches forehead*
And do you need help solving it?
*Begins to crawl back to her lab on her hands and knees, one arm around her side*
Yes nobody will take the case
Do you have any more information available?
(Random rant of the day: so every year for some odd reason my grandma gives my uncle his presents before coming here. So this year they don't. We sit down to do presents, mind you my uncle has moaned all evening due to stupid stuff, and we do youngest so my cousins and I (3) of each open our presents one from grandma each and thats all she gives us, so its like ok. We get to my uncle and holy shit i counted so many presents and everyone else got 3 tops he had 8-10 and im like...what the hell, now we know why they open presents there, thats just wow. Not cool)
No I really- *looks* No its hard to
Hello. :-)
*She ends up sliding half under the snow, and stays there in a trembling heap*
Greetings, Ms. Fabienne.
*walks over to Ms. Dark's huddled form, and kneels by her*
... I would ask if you were all right, but I believe I have my answer.
*She is silent for a moment, then, slightly muffled* Please, Sir.. You don't want to know
(Hey Fabi!)
Hello Sir, Adra, Zaf, Helena, and anyone else who is around.
Ms. Dark, I shall hardly inquire as to why you are like this, that is your own business. But I am hardly going to leave you here in the cold.
*lowers sightly, and scoops her up*
*stands, frowning*
Ms. Dark, you really should eat more. You are far too light.
*begins walking towards a fire pit*
Sir, I don need to be carried..
You were just burying your face in snow, Ms. Dark. I shall take my chances.
*She huffs, but doesn't say anything*
*arrives, and sets her own a log*
Now, Ms. Dark, I would rather you stay on the log, despite how appealing the snow may be.
*turns, and begins working on starting the fire*
*She runs a hand through her hair, and refrains from saying anything*
*Pauses*
Thank you
*continues working*
For what? Saving you the trouble of getting up and walking? Save your thank-you's for things that matter, Ms. Dark.
*sighs contentedly, as the pit slowly glows to life*
*nods
Everything matters
If everything matters, Ms. Dark, then nothing matters.
*nods, and takes a seat*
Oh, blast it all to oblivion.
If nothing does, then the presence of everything must be special, then?
It depends. If it is energy, it does not matter, as it is not. But matter, being energy, is, yet therefore is not.
Well now you're just trying to trip me up
Ms. Dark, there is a valuable lesson in this. A small nugget of wisdom.
*smiles*
Anyone can espouse nonsense and make it sound legitimate.
Oh yes I know. Congress seems to be especially good at that
Quite.
*She nods, carefully scooting closer to the fire, pressing her hands towards the heat*
