And because I don't have ENOUGH to do at this time of year...
Alrighty then, here's a fun little thing I've been working on, and I need your help. I'm editing together a video (and I'm very new to editing, so I haven't a clue what I'm doing) of many people singing what is basically the 12 Days of Christmas, but with a difference.
If you want to be a part of this, all you have to do is send an email to skulteams@hotmail.com, giving me permission to use your video in making MY video. We, in turn, will get back to you with the lines I need you to sing. You then go off, sing these lines into your phone or camera or whatever — it can be you, it can be you and a friend, you and your family, or a group, or a pet, or a puppet, or your favourite kettle — and send these (SHORT!) videos back to the skulteams address so you can be edited in.
(Oh, and one minor details, for those of you under the age of 18... GET YOUR PARENTS' OR GUARDIANS' PERMISSION!)
If you could keep the lines you sing to yourself— i.e. don't tweet them! — that would be very helpful! The lines will be given out tomorrow, the final deadline is Monday night, with the full video to be released on Christmas day, right here on my blog.
Provided I learn how to edit by then.
NO MORE APPLICANTS! ALL SPACES FILLED! GOOD GOD THERE ARE OVER 100 OF YOU!
THOSE WHO GOT THEIR APPLICATIONS IN HAVE UNTIL 7 PM (IRISH TIME) ON MONDAY TO GET THEIR VIDEOS IN!

Hey! How are you all?
Ok then......Just gonna doa solo-rp then
*(early hours of the morning)* *the house was silent. Not a single sound was made. In his room, sleeping in his bed Rhydian Sky was all of a sudden awoken by a knocking of the front door* *he goes downstairs and unlocks the door and then opens it to a young woman and a teenage boy*
Woman: Hello Rhydian. I'm Hermione Poetry and this is my son, Angel Constant. Can we come in?
Er...Hello Poetry. Hi Angel? Sorry, but it's five in the morning. I would really like to go back to bed
Poetry: Please?
Fine. Whatever. Just sit in the Living Room.
Poetry: Thank you *smiles*
*Poetry and Angel walk into the house and Poetry sits on the sofa as Angel walks around the Living Room looking/examining things*
Like a drink?
Poetry: Cup of tea would be lovely. Angel?
Angel: No thanks. Cute he is
*turns suddenly* I'm what? *turns to Poetry* He just called me cute?
Angel: Yes I did.
Poetry: Ignore him. That's what I do. Others usually punch him.
Ok...? I'll get you a cuppa.
Angel: Cute.
Stop calling me that!
*Angel picks up something from fireplace* Don't touch that! *takes it from him and puts it back*
*goes to make tea*
*gives Poetry cup of tea* So, why are you and the annoying lad here?
Poetry: I would like to offer you a job at my Sanctum. It's a place where I and a few others - including the annoying boy - work with strange creatures. Like an animal Sanctuary ina way.
Sounds nice, but u don't really want a job atm. I'm happy freelance.
Poetry: Here's my card. *gives card with number* Ring me if you have a change of heart.
Thanks. Don't expect me to call today. Got a friends wedding to go to.
Poetry: OK. Come on Angel. Time to leave.
Angel: You are cute though...Just saying. *both leave house*
Rp over for now. Angel? Hahahahahaha
I'll just go then. Bye
Nah I'll stay :) reality is overrated :P
TWO DAYSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.
#ChaseForBookNine
...Hellooooooooooooo?
Hey, Mushroom. :)
Have to leave soonish. Lunch, then going to town with my friend.
How are you? :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Hey Star!:)
I'm tired. How are you?
Tiredness is evil. :( That's why it has the same vowels as 'evil' with the same amount of space between them in reverse order.
I am fairly good, I suppose.
#ChaseForBookNine
*stares at Esquibeth bouncing at the top of the page*
#ChaseForBookNine
*laughs* You're brilliant.
You supposed...?
I suppose!
(IIIII suppose, yeah!)
*sorry, Rhythm Heaven*
And of course I'm brilliant, I'm a bubble. :)
Well, I thought about it, and I supposed that I was fairly good, because of good things like holidays and chocolate and the mad fact that I can't write or roleplay but I can write about my characters roleplaying.
#ChaseForBookNine
Oh my God, Star I love you so much, haha! <3
I love you too. :)
And I don't even really know why you keep telling me that because although I am awesome, I am not overly awesome for one of my species. :)
But distant and msd now. D:
#ChaseForBookNine
IS IT LOVE THAT MAKES MY HEART GO BOOM BOOM BOOOOOOM

#ChaseForBookNine

@Mushroom: I realised. :)
Ah, I need to go on a quest today, don't I?
Later on, when the roleplayers are here and I'm back from town. :)

HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
#ChaseForBookNIne
Hi! *waves*
Hi, Corvo! :)
#ChaseForBookNine
And I just got my Maid of Honor dress...
Hello Stara, Corvo
Hey Corvo! :)
I'm not part of the wedding I don't think maybe one of my chars are
@Zaf: Nobody's mentioned anything to me, haha. If you don't have a specific position, you're a guest.
I'm still undecided about my characters and what they're doing and how many I'm bringing. :P
@Adra: I still need to go on a quest at some point. I haven't forgotten. :)
Gosh, this story Hunter and Ez are writing is going quite well. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Zaf, you're a bridesmaid
*hyperventilates*
Does anyone know what time it starts?
MARA!!!!!!!!! How you feeling? Ready to....you know, get married?
*Runs to Mara* MARA CALM YOURSELF
*Looks at herself*
EEP!
*Runs into a closet for five minutes*
*Walks out* Okay... Nearly died there.
Mara
Ur hair and makeup
Do you need me to do it, or..
Hunter and Ez are both pretty good with makeup.
They've taught each other stuff, you know?
#ChaseForBookNine
*screams* I'M GOING TO MeSS UP
BQXSCWDIJNDNEIWQ
((oh btw i have to go to a party tonight so i won't be on from 7-9 blog time oops))
Okay wait which kid was flower girl? Liv or Lexi...if its Liv I'm pausing the plot of her being captured
*Grips Mara's shoulders* Mara, breathe. Calm down, you look beautiful, and you'll be amazing
@Zaf: I think all plots pause for this. :)
*references to Avenged Sevenfold for the fourth time in two thousand words*
#ChaseForBookNine
((btw i was joking about jesy being the flowergirl
if it's okay with you Zaf I actually picked the two girls to be flowergirls but it's okay))
Did Hunter and Ez practice on each other?
OMG Hunter
OMG I'm laughing so hard
((In my story, I mean.
Oops. :P))
#ChaseForBookNine
Ya so
Still
Laughing
@Adra: They've had quite a few mascara fights, but Ez was good with makeup before she met Hunter. :P
Oh my gosh, though.
Hunter made the mascara permanent.
*facepalm*
They had fun trying to get that off. XD
#ChaseForBookNine
But but but oh my gosh Adra I just *covers her fave with her hands*
((No, the references were in my story.
No, the OTHER story.
*sighs*))
#ChaseForBookNine
(Its fine! I'm gonna pause my plots for this so all my chars can be present. I shall resume my plots AFTER Christmas. Due to tomorrow I need Zafira for tomorrow too and the Ball :D)
*goes into Liv's room tickling her awake* Livvy get up!
Olivia: *giggles* Momma!!! Momma!!!
((omg Star XD
Well I think I'm going to need a few people to do my makeup and stuff because once I put eyeliner on my lips so))
((STAR THAT IS BEAUTIFUL I HAVE TO READ THIS)
*Smiles, and carefully hugs her* Mara, you need to calm down- you'll be there, and you won't fall, in fact, you'll probably want to just run up there instead of slowly walking, but nothing will go wrong because it's all perfect, okay?
@Adra: It never got written. *laughs*
#ChaseForBookNine
(you should write it. I would read the hell out of that. And make screenshots)
(Mara Zaf is excellent at hair, if you don't mind me taking Liv and Alexis with, Ravel would end up putting Olivia in her dress backwards)
Okay. Okay. Okay. *breathes slowly* *hugs back* Thank you. *smiles* It's just a bit.. overwhelming.
((Of course Zaf, come along :D and yess they can come too haha))
*tries to find a suit*
I know, Mara. *Smiles* Now. Hair and makeup
*picks the haf asleep Olivia up and walks out* Alexis!
Alexis: *comes out* I have mine and Olivia's dresses!
Good let's go *shadow-walks all three of us to Mara* Hey Mara!
(Rhy do you want me to send Ravel or Javier by you? If Ravel comes he'll have Christopher)
@Adra: *goes off to try and write it*
Actually, I might write it into the story I'm writing.
Excuse me whilst I try that first. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
*sits down* please don't poke me in the eye.
Hey, Zaf! *smiles* Hey Liv, Lexi!
((Meh, I might just write it.))
#ChaseForBookNine
((Sure Zaffy :) )) ((Mara can I just turn up in this jumper? Profile pic won't update :( ))
(YAY STAR!!)
*Adra pulls out an impressive looking bag, and begins the foundation, humming*
((You don't have to change your picture if you don't want to, the wedding isn't really that important haha but sure :)))
Hey there. You want me to do your hair?
Alexis: Hey Mara!
Olivia: *waves now wide awake* Hi!
Ravel: *goes down holding Christopher looking confused* Rhydian....would you help me? Zaf gave me a suit for Christopher and I have never put a suit on an infant, who makes it dofficult to dress.
Of course I will Ravel. I used to dress my cousins when I used to babysit so, this'll be easy. *dresses Christopher in suit*
Christopher: *as soon as Rhy touvhes him he starts screaming until the suit is on*
Ravel: Thank you. I apologize, Christopher likes to scream. A lot.
So I have noticed.
If you like. *smiles*
Hey, girls, maybe you can find my "something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue and a cent in her shoe"? *laughs* I have this blue bracelet that used to be my mums... so that's something old, borrowed and blue. If you can find me my ring over there, that could be my something new.
((Might take a while. I have to write the whole scene like it happened in my head, and I can't skip over details like in my head. :P))
#ChaseForBookNine
*Finishes with the foundation and lots* *Nods* Okay. Yay. Cool. *Begins to work on her eyes* How are your fingernails? Do I need to whip out a quick manicure?
Ravel: *picks yhe baby up* This is why Zaf is the one that dresses him, he likes her.
Christopher: *closes eyes falling back asleep*
(Okay Star... YAYYAAYATA)
And, er... Of course?
Well. I bite them, so they probably aren't very nice looking. *bites her lip*
Olivia: *runs over and looks for the ring*
Alexis: *helps Olivia laughing*
Okay Mara when Ads finishes your make up I'll do your hair. Pray that I can get Olivia to sit still to do her hair.
Do you need help with that?
Okay. When Zaf does the hair, I'll do your nails*
*Hands her the ring, then points up* Look up with your eyes, and thing of baby giraffes.
*Pulls out a liquid eyeliner for her*
Alright. *nods*
Hey Corvo! *smiles*
Hello...
#ChaseForBook9
Baby giraffes? Fair enough.. *looks up*
Fabi get your dress on ITS A WEDDING
Hi! Good luck!
((Mara can my two OCs Hermione Poetry and her son Angel Constant come?))
((*huggles Fabi* FABIII:)))))))
*Carefully and skilfully draws the line under her eye* *nods*
Now look down.
*Does the same to the top, and works on the corners of her eyes then*
Corvo...? I've never seen you in a dress before. You look good :)
Nooo Adra then Esquibeth wouldn't be able to come!
((sure Rhy!))
*blushes* Thanks. I love your jumper
((*pokes Rhy* (¬‿¬) ))
*looks down*
I need to get my shoes in a few minutes...
Where are they?
Poetry: Hello. I thought I'd come to this wedding. Angel insisted he'd cone as well.
Angel: Hey Rhyds.
Angel...can you please just ignore me? You're a little bit annoying.
Poetry: Don't worry Rhydian. Everyone thinks that.
*Rhydian laughs*
Angel: Thanks mum.
*Finishes with her eyeshadow then quickly does her mascara*
Right.
*Pulls out her lipstick* Say "ahh"
Alexis: got the ring! *goes to Mara*
Olivia: cheater
Ello extended family
((Can't til I get to the computer!))
((Maybe I can use two accounts so that Esquibeth can attend and I can be wearing a dress?))
((Not like I actually managed to find one... Heh...))
#ChaseForBook9
Um, in my closet over there, I think. Thanks Corvo!
*takes the ring from Alexis* Thank you, Lexi. Don't worry Liv, I have a special job for you.
*laughs* Ahhhhh...
((*hugs Fabi* If you like!:)
Seeing as you're a bridesmaid, the colour is a lilac ish colour :) ))
*runs back with shoes*
Here you go Mara!
Hey Nev.
*Quickly applies Mara's lipstick, and sets all the makeup down*
*Squeals* Mara you look beautiful
Omg Mara!!!!
(I'm not gonna be able to switch the pics til tonight so...
((Yeah, I saw.))
((Wbd, last-minute dress hunt!))
#ChaseForBook9
Hey Nev!
Thanks, Corvo! *hugs her*
*goes pink* Oh, thanks Adra...! Thanks to you. *laughs*
Liv, dear, can you get my earrings over there, they're on the table?
Anything else need doing? *hovers nervously*
*Grabs Mara's hands and quickly begins on shaping them and cutting the cuticles and working on a quick French Nail style*
*laughs* Corvo, you look even more nervous than I do. You can sit down, if you'd like. There really isn't much left doing... *thinks*
OK
*collapses into a chair*
I get jittery, sorry
It's fine! *smiles*
We have to be there in twenty minutes... *glances up at the clock*
Twenty minutes
Mara
Twenty minutes
*Shhe touches her nails* All dry. Rounded. Good to go thanks to my fast-drying concoction
Mara
You look stunning, and you will be amazing.
(I might become a bit distant in a few)
Twenty minutes? *panicks*
Olivia: *gives her earrings and Lexi and Liv go het changed*
Okays Mara I got this *goes and begins working on Mara's hair* (omg my Mom saw i was recording Doctor Who for Chistmas and she sees before the Christmas Special: Farewell to Matt Smith and she goes: Erin do you need me to get you the tissue box of fandoms?
I'm not the only one then? *deep breaths*
((so the actual church thing is at about 4:30 blogtime and the actual reception is 4:45 to whatever time but i will disappear for a few hours so either just carry on without me or wait idm haha))
((it's a short service bc idk half the lines))
(Yaaaa Mara :3)
*She nods* Zaf, want me to help with the finishing touches?
*Retrieves the veil*
Thank you, Adra... *smiles softly* *hugs her*
Thank you, Livi!
*smiles* Thanks, Zaf.
((omg your mom is epic))
*easily finishes up Mara's hair (whichever way you want assume Zaf did it) Oh my....
You look beautiful!
*Hugs Mara* Right..
Right.
Yay
*Adra quickly turns to the mirror and under five minutes gets her hair situated and makeup done*
Hollah
((Aaaaand I probably have a dress that might maybe work, but I have to go do morning things now, like eat breakfast and shower. I'll be back when I can.))
((My search has yielded--
3 that would be okay if I photoshopped off the extra decoration on the sleeve. Not sure if I'll have time to do that, though
2 that are nice enough, but a longer dress would be better, I think.... Maybe?
One that is totally not my style and is more rose quartz than lilac, so how did it get in the saved pile? Maybe I'll use it if Effie makes an appearance
One that I can't quite pinpoint what's bothering me about it. Maybe the fabric type? Something's wrong about it
One that I might use for a ball sometime, but it doesn't look right for a bridesmaid))
#ChaseForBook9
Alexis: There I got myself and Liv done. *smiles* New record
Olivia: Lexi made me sit still
Thank you...! *blushes*
Alright. We have about five or ten minutes to get there. I can teleport us, so we can just relax.
(((AUGH I'LL TRY NOT TO MISS IT))
((.Msd though))
#ChaseForBook9
Oh okay good
I'm excited :)
((*huggles Fabi* See you! Hope you find a dress, haha :)))
((Fabi it's okay if you have to leave! 10 minutes can be like 30 in Blogtime :P))
(You will be okay Fabiiiiii!)
*Sighs* Ah, weddings...
Omgg I'm so excited :D
*Smiles* I as well!
Oh Mara, I'm so happy for you
*laughs*
Wow. I wonder how Harry's gett-

These chocolates are nice actually.
Oh my God. *laughs*
*gathers everyone in for a group hug* Thank you. For everything. *smiles*
Good luck with him, Mara *laughs*
Neer leave boys alone. I left Ravel and Javier alone they had fun....
My gosh, I swear, my characters just go and do the maddest things when all I wanted was a simple mascara fight. XD
#ChaseForBookNine
Niall... *shakes her head*
((*hugs Star* I need to read that oh my gosh))
*looks at the clock*

*follows Corvo close behind*
Mara: I think I go in last... The flowergirls go in first. Where's Louis? *looks around* LOUIS! *runs over* Um. You're still the ring bearer right.
Louis: Oh h- damn, Mara...
Mara: Louis! *scolds*
Louis: Uh, sorry. Yeah.
Mara: C'monnn!
Okay, flowergirls and ring bearer in the front, bridesmaids in front of me... And yes. *claps her hands together*
Everyone's dresses look fabulous. :)
"She whacked him one last time, then handed the gun to him. “You better have a lot of Vanish in that jacket of yours,” she told him.
“Oh, didn’t I tell you?” he mentioned casually. “Most of the mascara’s permanent.”
The world seemed to freeze for a moment, probably because Ez’s eyes were too busy widening in horror to process any new information."
#ChaseForBookNine
*hugs the bridesmaids and the flowergirls* Right. Everyone ready?
*smiles* Bye Rhy, Corvo.
OKAY
wait do I gave to walk with someone?
((Omg Star can that be my wedding speech))
((OMG there's one with the same model and background as my Requiem Ball dress!))
((I should probably stop worrying about this. Sorry, I'm kinda picky. :-P))
#ChaseForBook9
*Alexis and Olivia go in front both smiling*
*goes behind my two girls keeping an eye on them* Mara I'll send them down wen you want
