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.

*She reaches down, gently lifting one side of her tunic, glancing at her blackening ribs* *Drops the hem, and digs around in her bag for a small brown coloured concoction*
*Downs it* *Gags* Yuck
Funny how we want the things worst for us, and what's good for us is always unpleasant.
*Leans her back against the log, her legs spread out on the ground, toes near the fire*
Yeah... That happens quite a bit, doesn't it?
*lays with Ravel*
Ravel: *kisses cheek* merry Christmas *gives her a gift*
*opens* Oh...its...that ring...
Ravel: i knew you'd like it
I do
Ravel: *puts arms around pulling to the couch*
Hm... I should probably resume Liz's plot and resolve the cliffhanger.
*She pulls out a bottle of water, and a blanket from her bag* *Wraps it around herself, touching the bandage on her throat, then glances at the one on her arm* *Sticks her tongue out at them*
(I may writs more into mine but I'm rping xmas)
Oh...
Ravel: Zafira, you work too hard, relax.
I find it rather hard.
Ravel: I wish I had oppurtunity to meet John
I believe he and I owe each other one last dance
*walks up to you all*
I apologise about that slight interruption.
Oh! *steps back from Ravel*
Ravel: Hello, Helena.
It was nothing, Ms. Sky.
Ms. Dark, you honestly should know better than to do that.
Quite alright, Hel.
Do what?
They're annoying- they deserve to be shamed
*nods head in Ravel's direction*
Lovely to see you again, Ravel.
May I join you all by the fire?
Certainly!
Ravel: Join us.
Of course, Ms. Sky.
While you may believe that Ms. Dark, I would believe that you could come up with a more thoughtful way of snubbing them than that. And, of course, you should hardly be so dreadfully rude.
In any case, I dedicate to bananas, as they are an excellent source of potassium.
*sits down on an empty log*
Why thank you.
*pulls a small mug out of a coat pocket and condenses the air into water in the cup*
*warms up the water and pulls some dry leaves out of my pocket*
*crushes them into the water*
*sighs into the mug*
A gift from the gods, tea.
...
*raises glass* Hear hear
And to what, wounds?
They're healing to slow. They're the ones being rude
Ah. You're an Elemental.
Ravel: *teasingly* Zaf you Necromancers can't do those nifty tricks
Even still, Ms. Dark.
That was impressive, Hel
An Elemental I am. I sometimes forget why.
*clicks fingers making fire*
Then I do that.
*She shakes her head, crossing her arms*
Necromancy. Because I excelled in it and had no other reason not
Why thank you Adra. I try to carry the essentials. Food, tea, sugar... And some weapons but they're not important.
*stands up*
In any case, I must egress. It was an absolute pleasure.
Naturally.
Goodnight, Sir
Good night Sir
I'm not saying being an Elemental's better. Woah no. Being an Elemental sucks sometimes. We can't have shadow daggers, we have to use the real thing. And we can't sense death, we have to use our noses. Which is nasty.
Everything has its pros and cons.
True. When I'm around death my necklace freezes. I know i'm near a death its more powerful if you use it correctly
*She gets to her feet, shouldering her bag and blanket* I must go as well.
*Curtsies to them* Goodnight.
*Goes back to her lab*
Goodnight Adra! Farewell. *waves*
Good night Adra.
Okay i ought to go too
Yes good night
Goodnight Zaf. If anymore information turns up about the case, just contact me.
Hello again. Will be very very distant, and I'll try not to disappear, but will probably end up doing so. Again.
So, so sorry...
That's okay, Fabi.
Hi Helena. :-)
How's your break been going?
It's really weird being on holiday. I haven't relaxed into it yet.
[Nods] I s'pose that makes sense.
Nice cat, by the way.
Why thanks. Her name's Ophelia in case you wanted to know.
Aaaaaaaand gtg. Bye!
See ya Fabi!
Awesome name. I have a character by that name... Or some versions of her, anyway.
I really need to sleep now. Sorry. Bye [waves]
Oh dear god... I was in there singing the ten in the first go through from 12...
Or was it 9... meh
Snow--
I am asleep. Which means I'm not here. I totally didn't just pick up my new iPad and check Blogland. Understood?
Great.
Now, TSE. I actually came up with a dimension idea that's actually writing (mostly). So if you get frustrated with yours, I have a back-up plan now.
Noted fab.
Gooood moooooorrrniiiing!
(Well, it's morning here, so good afternoon/evening/night.)
I've just watched the video, and it's fab! ^_^ I'm in the second video, singing 'six Avengers venging' in a Captain America t-shirt :')
Kidneys. Dont like the colour.
(Not here!!)
Just finished the Doctor Who special...
Ah, no one's here... right.
Now I have no one to be angry with in result...
*waves*
Although, this is still a no-spoiler zone, so I don't think you'll get very far
Shh... I am not here. I am in my room. Cleaning. :)
And now I am cleaning my teath and going to bed... not sneaking on... nooo... whywould I do that...?
Sir Reingington said...
Ms. Dark, there is a valuable lesson in this. A small nugget of wisdom.
*smiles*
Anyone can espouse nonsense and make it sound legitimate.

Thats what I do... constently...
Msd- airport
Kay.
msd, dad fiddling eith internet.

Hey guys!
Hello, children. Long time no see.
*pokes all* sup?
Children?
Aren't you kind
Yes. Merry Christmas, to you all.
I've missed all of you so much.
You probably didn't miss me.
What's been happening? I know what happened with Rose..
Anything new in the roleplay?
Cats?
wait what?
Wait, what happend with death/rose and when??
Not really...
Um, Rose has terminal cancer. She doesn't have much longer to live, as far as we know.
Oh. You were doing roleplay not that long ago.
Aiden I don't think I've ever met you before. In my dark corner of the world its boxing day not Christmas anymore...
*pokes snow stormberg back* psst wanna cookie?
....... really.......?
oh god...
Yes. *takes cookie*
Yeah it's Boxing Day here as well.
I don't really know who rose/death is but that's terrible news! How old is she?
#ChaseAndRoseForBook9
Can we not talk about Rose please?
Well, it's just been dabbling on things
Okay...
Thanks for the utmost detail.
100 and 1 dalmations is a good film
Right, well, in the rp everyone thinks snows dead, but im about to fix that...
All right. Go ahead. I'd like some roleplay to take my mind off of things.
No really. Dabbling as in, we just RPed at regular lives and things that happen.
I do apologize if I suddenly disappear- we've boarded
Gah... I g2g. Bye
*falls to knees* no snow why did you leave me why???
Goodbye, Snow
No the arkward silence again. Has everyone left?
I have a question about vampires. Can you harm them in their human disguise and if so do they heal quicker than a normal human or not.
HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
"If everything matters, then nothing matters."
Everything DOES matter.
So maybe nothing matters. :)
Which would make a lot of sense.
It's a glass-half-full-glass-half-empty thing.
Depends how you look at it.
#ChaseForBookNine
I always thought of the glass half-water, half not water, rather than full or empty:/
#ChaseForBook9
#RoseForBook9
Hey, Ieni! :)
Sorry, wbd. :(
And - that's an interesting way of looking at it. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
@Ieni: . . . is that, like, Death Rose for book 9?
#ChaseForBookNine
I have always thought of the glass being half-full, but it's one of the most easily argued points in all of philosophy, due to there being such a thing as seeing-as. ^_^
Hey Mushroom. :)
Well, if it's been filled to halfway, then I would describe it as half full, whereas if it was filled to full and half of it has been drunk, it would be half-empty. :) But idk.
In terms of metaphors, I'm a glass-half-full person - optimistic, you know. :)
Hi, Mushroom! :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Hello Star! Twice, I guess ^-^
Fairy nuff, Star, that is a truly fine way of looking at it. :')
Hey, Star, hey, Luce!!:) *ninjaeroplanetacklehugs*
Yes, I think it is.
Luce, you know what I said about writing all the stuff down for 2013. Well I started today so I could open it next Christmas and there's one and a half pages of just what you said yesterday and the 24th!;P
@Mushroom: :)
@Ieni: :)
*realises I'm just kind of sitting here and smiling* *but smiling is good, so *smiles**
#ChaseForBookNine
HELLOOOOO IENIIIIII
...
um
I'm not nice though how did that happen
Smiling is goooooood! *smiles with Star* SMILEEEEEEEEEEEY
We all live in a smiley submarine,
We didn't like the colour so we painted in green,
A shark came along so we were all dead,
Then the blood from our bodies made the boat RED.
Uuuh, I'm feeling /fine/. *quietly walks away giggling to self*
You're not nice???
?????
?????
?????
?????
?????????????????????????????
@Ieni: *laughs* XD That's AMAZING. :) :)
I shall sing that to people. :)
Mushroom, you are nice. :) And even if you weren't, that wouldn't necessarily be bad, as Hunter was telling Ez. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Haha, it's not original xD
*sticks hand up in the air and jumps up and down* I'M NOT NICE!!!
My friend said the reason she liked me is because I'm not nice xD
SOMEONE LOVES ME FOR MY FLAWS THIS IS GOOD
@Ieni: Being not nice isn't necessarily a flaw. :) It's bot h bad an good, like all character traits. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
*hugs* YOU ARE STAR THE WISE
The wise men followed Star bearing gifts, because they wanted to bribe her into telling them the secret of her wiseness!!
We 3 kings of cigarette tar,
One in a taxi and one in a car,
One in a scooter honking his hooter,
Following the wise old Star!
I started to cry on the plane when I thought about Matt Smith and his farewell...
Msd!
G2g, lunch!!! *hugs*
Bye Ieni!
I just sprinted to get to my plane... And now I'm having an asthma attack YOOOOOOOOOOO

HEY MARAAAAAA

i mean, hell, i'm overwhelmed that i'm going to see 1D and lm, but tich is touring too and wow.
idk
hi adra and luci *hugs*
I've never been to a concert before... ^-^
But I'm going to buy Tangled, I think. And NBC and CB and the Ultimate Disney 3 Disc CD... :D
Maybe...!
Hullo . . ?
Luci, going to a concert is so fun :')
When I went to the 1D concert in March, I was chatting to my friend and then this girl behind us started chatting with us too and eventually there were about ten of us squealing and everything - I think I have some of their phone numbers from that day :)
Tangled is life omg that movie >>>
Hey Anni :) *hugs*
Msd, wbd.
Hullo, Maralie, Luciana, and possibly Adra.
*reclines in a swivel chair*
*begins to peel and eat a clementine*
Hey Anni! ^-^
I wanted to go see Fall Out Boy, but nobody will go with me. Same with Panic! so, whatever. I can live without ever seeing my favourite bands live. ^-^
Panic! at the Disco!
*high-fives Luciana*
I CHIME IN
WITH A HAVEN'T YOU PEOPLE EVER HEARD OF
CLOSING THE GODDAMN DOOR!
*high-fives Anni*
I was going to type the lyrics to Lying, but then I realised:P
*laughs*
It's nine in the afternoooooooooon
And your eyes are the size of the mooooooooon
You could 'cause you can so you dooooooooo
We're feelin' so good
Just the way that we do
When it's nine in the afternoon!
I have the acoustic version of Lying on O_O
I have a piano cover of Miss Jackson on right now . . .
I love that songggggg.
This Is Gospel just came on.
Wow, iTunes does not understand random at all...!
Okay, Thnks Fr Th Mmrs Acoustic just came on. That's better~
My favorites are Mona Lisa, I Write Sins not Tragedies, Miss Jackson, Let's Kill Tonight, and Nine in the Afternoon. I like New Perspective too, I suppose.
I don't think I can choose a favourite... I just don't choose favourites, usually.
Unless it's with books.
Like, DB and LSODM are my favourite Skulduggery books. (because Darquesse is my absolute favourite ^-^)
Oh, I could never pick favorites among books. If you saw my clip in the Christmas video then you've seen my biggish-smallish-library.
I just can't choose favourite songs by artists, I think... Or movies. I cannot choose favourite movies.
I'm sorry, but I'm being called away . . . bye . . .
Bye Anni~
Back!
Hey Adra.
Happy Boxing Day, everyone... if that's even a real thing...?
Hello Laura.
Hey Luci :3
I'm in North Carolina now!!!
And it's only 10AM
Blegh.
Laura!!! *hugs* Good, you?
In any case, how are ye, Luce? You sound down :/
Cool, Adra.
It's 3.10-ish here... :I
Tangled is on (:
Do I...? Oh. Sorry.
Tangledddd! *hugs* Hi Mara!
And don't be sorry, Luce. You just usually have more exclamation points :3 *cuddles tightly, wraps a blanket around her, hands some tea*
Ugh i feel like crap
I don't use exclamation points very often. Exclamatives aren't really my thing. I prefer declaratives and interrogatives.
Capital letters, then
"Call it what you may. Fate, destiny.."
"A horse."
Morning. *waves*
Hullo. I'm back, but not for too long.
Hey again Anni.
Hullo, Luciana.
How are you?
Hi Anni
And yeah Luce its like my Mom yesterday, i got Geek Girl amd I was readimg because nobody was coming until 2pm ir was 9. So I was reading ti 10 and she said ok then flipped, you tell me go read but yell at me for it.
I'm doing pretty well. I had a lovely Christmas.
She tells me off for saving up my money, but the moment I want to spend it I'm in the fucking wrong. -.-"
Nothing's gonna hurt you
The way that words do
When they settle 'neath your skin
Kept on the inside
And no sunlight
Sometimes a shadow wins
But I wonder what would happen if you
Said what you wanna say
And let the words fall out
Honestly, I wanna see you be brave
With what you wanna say
And let the words fall out
Honestly, I wanna see you be brave
Just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
Just wanna see you
I wanna see you be brave
Everybody's been there
Everybody's been stared down by the enemy
Fallen for the fear and
Done some disappearing
Bow down to the mighty
Don't run
Stop holding it in
Maybe there's a way out of the cage where you love
Maybe one of these days you can let the light in...
#ChaseForBook9
Hello Zaf, Anni, Fabi *waves*
Hey Fabi.
That was awesome!
Oh, hullo Adra!
I thought you might be interested in reading a conversation I had with my mother shortly after I logged off last night.
I think you would find it hilarious, and would give me hell about it later.
Did you write that, Fabi?
Hey Kila!
I do want to hear about it
Yes
Sorry for my being in a terrible mood. It's continuing on from last night... I was such a wreck, haha. Ask Sparx. I don't even remember a lot of what happened, to be honest.
No, Sara Bareilles did. I just really like it. At one point I was trying to make a lyric video for it... I'm not sure where that project went...
Thanks though [hugs Anni]
Hello Lucy, Adra [hugs]
Hi Andra, Zaf [hugs]
Hi anyone else, too...
#ChaseForBook9
I'm laughing at the ending with Derek and a bunch of people. I really should have gotten more peoeple but it is hard around here
And a big kiss to Derek Landy!
*ships Dolly hard*
That's alright, Luciana. I hope you feel better soon.
*gives her a hug*
Hey Fabi. :) *hugs*
Oh, yeah! I forgot about that part, Zafira! I loved the ending!
*giggles happily*
AWH ANNI *pinches her cheek*
Heh
Hehehhehrheheheheehheehww
*Cuddles Lu and Fabru*
Well, it was lovely, Fabi. I only asked because I write a lot of songs myself and I wanted to know if anyone else here did as well.
*turns pink and pushes Adra's arm away*
I do not put up with cheek-pinching.
*laughs, ruffles her hair* AWH, you have a crush
NO OMG I HATE BUT LOVE THIS PART
I was in the second video and the second person to sing 9 Skulduggery Pleasants
Awh, shut up.
*grumpily tries to fix her hair*
I do believe that not a single Bloglandian hasn't had a crush on a fictional character.
*tries to look dignified*
I was in the second video as well.
*Giggles again* That's sooooooo adorable!
Mara I resonate
Its totes okay! I have a crush on Nic but that is never happening
I am not adorable.
*sulks*
Which person were you Anni? I know Mara did the cup song! Its cool hearing all the accents
Curse you!
I dedicate this page to fictional crushes. It's okay to crush on a fictional character. And to real life ships, Dolly! And Dolly shall live forever!
I write songs... They're just rarely good enough to share. :-P
You are, Annika. So. Adorable.
[Laughs]
#ChaseForBook9
*Raises glass*
Fabi, your songs are probably better than Val and mine's
I was at 1:40 on the second video, standing in front of my biggish-smallish-library.
As you can see, I am a very quiet and shy sort of singer. Also, the video is a little blurry, so you can't see my face too clearly, but I assure you that I am a beautiful Disney princess like Jensen Ackles.
My accent is awful omg
And I refuse to be classified as adorable!
*lurks in her lair*
Humph.
I just KNEW you would tease me about this.
It's beautiful, Mara :)
Jensennnn
I hate this damn blog sometimes... -.-"
