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!

So their nightmares came through
Now our world is full of nightmares
Left from you
#ChaseForBook9
(Hello, Aretha *hugs* That's a lovely lyric... And- very powerful.)
((Hello! *hugs back* Thanks. Just a song I've been listening to recently. I might lyric spam a bit- I love this album. :) ))
#ChaseForBook9
It sounds really cool, what's it called? I'm Corvo btw, Rhydian's friend *waves*
(Okay!! :3)
((Hey Corvo! That song was One Track Minded Age, and it's from the album Eyes of Tomorrow by Broken Iris. They have a few longish song names, don't they...))
#ChaseForBook9
Thanks!! :)
Strike from the strongest hand
Search from the sharpest eye
Pull from the greater side of your mind
Tear down the wall that's stuck
In between soul and mind
Watch as the worlds collide
And leave your shell behind
Won't you take in this old shell
And trade it for some understanding
You're bound to find out that
Infinite is one, just one thing
#ChaseForBook9
Here I stand, tranquilized, in this little white room of mine
There I go, on my own, in this redefined world inside
Why do you take this, conquer and dismay this,
Peaceful sanity of mine?
Your attempting to bore me, shatter and destroy me,
Is worthless, it fuels my gain
Maybe we're all insane
#ChaseForBook9
Epic :)
Gtg. Tea's ready. Bye!
(I might continue, then. I'll be watching though.. *nods*)
*Hears a slight beeping behind her, whips around to see the monitor connected to the boy begin to go off*
*The mother awakens and begins to call out*
*Rushes over to the small boy, reading the monitor- cardiac arrest*
*Hisses and gets right to work*
*The mothers calling awakens the father, and they begin to cause a racket*
Where are we?
Where's the kids?
What happened?
Babe! Are you hurt?
I dunno Hun!
Kali! Joseph! Feren!
*Adra shuts her eyes, concentrating on the boy, trying to talk to the parents as well*
Just- please. Shush! You're safe! Your kids are!
*Grabs a few potions, and works on the child's heart*
(Goodbye, Corvo *waves*)
I dare you to cross the line again
#ChaseForBook9
((Bye Corvo!
...I could keep going, but I'll just end up writing out the whole album. So I'll probably stop. Might spam again later, though.))
#ChaseForBook9
*knocks on Adra's door*
#ChaseForBook9
((Hey Fabi! *hugs* How are you?))
#ChaseForBook9
(Hey Ari! Are we going to get to hear more from Cristofer? He seems he has a story to tell
*She curses, and then begins CPR on the child, feeding him energy from her straight to his heart, and the beeping stops*
*His heart restarts and she wipes her forehead, the noises falling silent- including the parents*
*Tucks the child back in, brushing his hair from his head and goes to the parents*
Right. My name is Doctor Adrasdos Dark, and you and your family was in a car crash around 12:30 last night. I was the nearest medical facility nearby, so you were brought here. Please, don't worry. Your children are safe, and I'm here to make sure of that.
*The woman looks at her* Are you the only Doctor on duty?
*Adra nods*
You saved my son...Thank you.
*She nods again* You two should sleep. You'll be healed in about an hour, and your children will only be a little after that. *Smiles*
But how is that poss-
*Adra hits a button on her tablet, and they're given another dose of medicine*
*They go back to sleep*
*She pulls up the family's stats as she walks from the room, dead on her feet*
(Fabi! Hello! *hugs*)
*Goes to the door and opens it* Ari..?
(Ah. Silence again...)
((I'm okay... Ish. [hugs] You?))
(No really... What happened?? 0.0 where is everyone?
Did the end of the world happen?)
((Yeah, someone just forgot to notify you. You're dead. We're all dead.))
((Actually, I was helping my Grandmom with something))
(Well. This must be heaven. Blogland. And rain.
Or maybe hell
I'm not sure.)
(Awkward moment when Ari vanishes on you :P
((...Neither am I.))
Hello.
(we're allll in thissss togetherrrrr
Yo Dragona)
(When we stand hand in hand we believe that we're all in this together)
((We sang "Start of Something New" for Derek at Val's party... It was hilarious.))
(We sung opera. His facial expression was priceless
((Back! Sorry for vanishing. I went to eat.))
Picture perfect mutilation
White to black with no hesitation
All the right shades
On the wrong page
Make up this colorful
This colorful mind
Of mine
Soothing brushstrokes
Scraping pain
Loosen your grip before it all fades
Vibrant rays eclipsed by the haze
Make up your colorful mind
Much less colorful
Will this be another day and night in here?
The knife's not sharp enough to fear
If I ever see you,
And why try to stay?
The room's not lighted for a grave
((And yes, you'll be hearing plenty more from Cristofer. Plenty. Hehehehehe.))
#ChaseForBook9
Sounds hilarious, Fabi :P
(*Smacks Ari with a Feather* Oh shush you. Wb.)
((Thanks, Adra! *feels suddenly happy because I knew what "wb" meant*))
#ChaseForBook9
(;
Right...
*Slinks back into her lab*
*wanders through Blogland, looking slightly dazed*
#ChaseForBook9
My new laptop can run games better than my old one, so I was playing Star Wars Battlefront II. I modded it quite a lot by downloading stuff and replacing files. Now when I go to this temple place, it's some soldiers vs guys with lightsabres and it's funny. REALLY unbalanced, since you're there against loads of people who can kill you like instantly... But it's fun. In a weird way.
*walks into blogland, right up to the bar, unlocking the door*
#ChaseForBook9
*sees* Nic? You want to sit down?
((That is good to hear, Dragona.))
#ChaseForBook9
(Mods are hilarious,.)
*She yawns, sits with her tablet, watching the monitors*
(Trip! Hey!)
(I got civilisation 5 for christmas. I haven't stopped since. 0.0 Herrow.)
#ChaseForBook9
*looks at Zafira, smiling, and appearing to be actually content* No, thank you. It is a lovely day to be out and walking, is it not?
#ChaseForBook9
((My cousins are here now, so I'm gone. Sorry!))
*enters the bar, but doesn't turn on the lights, hurries up stairs*
#ChaseForBook9
((Aretha has heard much about that game from a good friend of hers. I am glad you are enjoying it, Trip.))
#ChaseForBook9
Indeed it is actually. You look pretty happy today. I can guess why.
((So am I, thanks.))
#ChaseForBook9
((Goodbye, Fabienne.))
#ChaseForBook9
*intrigued* And why might that be?
#ChaseForBook9
(Bye Fabi!!!)
*Checks her watch*
*Goes back to the family, and makes a small portal*
*Quickly gives them all a potion so they forget*
*They're all wheeled out and she sighs*
*Sinks to the floor, and lays on her side, sore*
Cristofer de Hecke. *smiles* I'm glad you have someone related to you. Or did you ask Aretha out? Because it's one of the two.
*starts hurriedly rummaging through the trinkets, vials and boxes in the loft*
#ChaseForBook9
*Gives up*
*Groans* This is just... Ugh... I need to hire someone. *Closes her eyes, her stomach rumbling further, yet is too tired to cook anything* *Yawns*
Oh, heavens no, I attempted that once in response to popular demand, and the end result was quite unpleasant. Pieter- you know him as Cristofer. He took my name, you know- is a rather magnificent boy, though, is he not? I like to think that I hand a hand in raising him, but I spent most of his lifetime dead in his eyes. *smiles, nodding to self at some old memory* He hates me now, you know. So do Ethor and Ysabel, but that is alright. They are alive, and I have faith that in time they will come to accept and forgive my actions, as I have.
#ChaseForBook9
Oh yay! Mass Effect Mod for Star Wars Battlefront II. Replaces all skins with Mass Effect ones, as well as Mass Effect Maps and Mass Effect weapons. Awesome. :)
*thinks to self* I believe Adra may have use for some assistance. Please excuse me. *strolls off towards Adra's laboratory, and knocks on the door*
#ChaseForBook9
(Okay... You lost me. My brothers play all of those. I play Spore and Solitaire. Because I'm a loser gamer :P
Except at COD. I kind of kick ass.)
*throws some multicolour leaves onto a wooden board along with some small chunks of flesh, shreds them and then puts them in a bowl.*
#ChaseForBook9
I tried to explain to him- wait his siblings are alive? I thought they died...but I mean I know they will one day. I kind of wanted to talk to Cristofer, he reminded me a bit of you when he appeared. *hugs Nic* I hope in time your family forgives you.
(Eers...or not yeah right...)
*Hits her head on the floor* Jesus... *Shouts* THE DOOR'S OPEN
((I shall simply assume you said that before I approached Adra.))
Thank you, Zafira. *beams* Yes, they are all alive.
#ChaseForBook9
(Wot are you doing Trip)
*sighs* Why does everyone freakin gravitate to her?! *stalks off to treehouse bitterlly*
*enters, stepping lightly, similarly to a dancer* Hello there, Adra. How are you?
#ChaseForBook9
That is good news indeed. I would be as thrilled too.
*holds palm over bowl and a drop of blood drops in. Rainbow flames leap from the bowl and Trip recoils, shielding his eyes with his forearm* (something.)
#ChaseForBook9
(If you want me I shall continue my usual lonliness in the treehouse
(Ta)
...tired
Ethor, Pieter (Cristofer) and Ysabel: *linger on the edges of Blogland, chatting softly to each other*
Pieter: *notices Zafira, and points her out to the others, running over to her* Hello again, Grand Mage. I wanted to thank you for your help yesterday. And introduce you to my siblings- this is Ethor, my older brother, and Ysabel, my younger sister.
#ChaseForBook9
I don't like COD. I used to play them when I was like... thirteen. They're not that bad games, but... when you've played one you've played them all. They're incredibly repetitive, and like 99.9999999% of Call of Duty players are idiots.
Call of Duty players are the reason Sony won't let you upload your own avatar for your PSN profile, and I don't blame them. I've played the newest Call of Duty when you can create your own emblem - 11/12 of the emblems in the game lobby are really offensive and rude. The only person who hasn't got a dodgy one is me, who has the N7 logo from Mass Effect.
If I'm going to play a shooting game in the same genre as Call of Duty I'll play Battlefield. They're great games, and harder to play. So you don't get the idiots. As well as the fact you can destroy buildings, which is fun.
*runs over to a teapot with hundreds upon thousands of symbols written on it and pours some water in. It instantly boils. Pours the water into the bowl and stirs*
#ChaseForBook9
Well, can I do anything for you? I could cook something, if you'd like, or perhaps lend you some energy, or both.
#ChaseForBook9
(Double, double, toil and trouble..)
(Yaymy gerbil cage is set up!'
*smiles* Hello Cristofer, and Ethor and Ysabel. Nice to meet you all.
((Fire burn and cauldron bubble))
#ChaseForBook9
*Glances up* Ah, please don't give me your energy... You probably need it.
*pauses*
*Considers pointing something out*
*Doesn't say anything*
..
But it would be lovely to eat something. I skipped yesterday..
((Screw up and you'll have naught but rubble.))
*waits for the potion to cool down, stirring it and adding sugar, then downs it*
#ChaseForBook9
(Macbeth? I hope you mean Macdeath)
(*laughs at her own joke*)
(*is a loser omg*)
(YAYYY Zaf)
Pieter: Please, call me Pieter. My siblings know me by that name. It suits me better.
Ethor and Ysabel: *curtsey and bow, respectively*
Ethor: It is an honor to meet you, Grand Mage.
#ChaseForBook9
(Nice adaptation, yo
Yo wait what's happening TRIPPP)
Ah, nonsense. I feel as though I've done naught but stroll and smile all day. *rests a hand on her shoulder, and she feels a rather strong surge of energy*
I shall prepare something for you. What would you like?
#ChaseForBook9
Very well, Pieter. *nods to the other two as the bow* It is indeed, Ethor. I am glad all three of you are alive actually.
Phew. *faints*
#ChaseForBook9
*Blinks* But you don't stroll and smile.
Ever
What's gotten into you?
*Pushes herself to her feet* Er... Well. Fish would be nice.
(Wot m8)
*rainbow light glows off him, and then suddenly he disappears*
#ChaseForBook9
[Tosses her hair behind her back and takes a deep breath]
[Wishes she didn't have trouble being herself]
(Ugh Trip gosh you're so high maintenance :P
*joking*
Hello Fabi!)
What's happening?
*opens the fridge and examines the contents* Hm... *vanishes, and returns a few minutes with a freshly caught fish* *finds a knife and begins to prepare it* How would you like it cooked? *grins* My sister's children are alive. How could I be anything other than happy?
Ysabel: *smiles and nods in agreement*
Ethor: Why thank you. You know, it's the strangest thing- Ysabel and I both seem to have rather large gaps in our memory. We'll have to get that seen to soon enough. In any case, it is good to be alive. I can hardly believe how long we've all been living under the assumption that everyone else was dead.
#ChaseForBook9
(Well. Food, Jade, talking with Zaf from people, and Trip being mystic)
*everything in the lab seems to sparkle for a moment, and Trip appears*
Hello! I've just come from the future! A week in the future in fact! About a minute or so after I sent myself there! Hello Adra!
#ChaseForBook9
((Hello, Jade.
I am currently cooking for Adra in her laboratory, Trip has mixed and consumed some sort of potion for reasons unspecified and disappeared before any of us realized he had arrived, and my nephews and niece are conversing with Zafira.))
#ChaseForBook9
(Herrow Jade. Nice to meet you. I'm me, and you're you. Good to get the introductions out of the way. Here! *hands bottle of blogland 2023*)
#ChaseForBook9
((I suppose we've just discovered the purpose and result of Trip's cryptic actions.))
#ChaseForBook9
Grilled please.
And- that's incredible *Smiles* But how?
...
Trip..
Did you just sparkle my lab
*grins*
*positively beams* I haven't the slightest idea! *grills the fish, then finds a plate and places it before Adra* I hope it is to your liking.
#ChaseForBook9
I wonder why... Well I'd be freaked if I lived under that assumtpion as well. Is it just you three and ah Cristofer Stille alive?
Potions, plants from caverns and such. On moment. *draws sword, fills it with energy and stabs at the air, a scream is heard, and then the distinctive pop of teleportation*
Now that's going to break the universe, so if you'll excuse me, *drinks another potion and explodes*
#ChaseForBook9
Ah, hello Trip! It has been too long. How are you?
#ChaseForBook9
*At Niccolo* Er... Would you not like to know? And yes, thank you it looks delicious...
*looks at Trip*
Well
There he goes
*watches Trip explode* Hm. *shrugs lightly* He is busy as ever, I see.
All three: *glower*
Pieter: *bitterly* You mean Croatoan.
Ysabel: *seems sadder than she is angry* What he means is that, as far as we know, we are the only ones alive. *smiles softly* But today is not a day for doubt.
#ChaseForBook9
*sits in the corner eating his own food*
*the world seems to stutter, as if experiencing lag, and the Trip appears, wearing red velvet robes and holding a glass shaped like a corkscrew filled with light*
There we go.
#ChaseForBook9
*laughs* Of course I would like to know. But we cannot have everything that we'd like.
#ChaseForBook9
Well at least you guys have each other, and Nic. I wouldn't be too upset with him, but I see why you would be.
So where do you live then? France or England?
...you alright love? *Takes a few bites if her salmon*
*Glances at Niccolo*
Ah...
Well.
Still,
I am now. And so are you.
And I'm going to have to drink this in five minutes, and it's going to hurt. But the universe won't explode! Or unravel, or implode... or just plain cease to exist.
#ChaseForBook9
*all answer at once*
Ethor and Ysabel: Italy
Pieter: France
Ethor: *looks at the others* I suppose we'll have to sort that out later.
#ChaseForBook9
...
I don't know if... If I want to know
*smiles* *slowly breaks into a fit of laugher*
#ChaseForBook9
*looks at Niccolo, perplexed*
Are you quite all right?
#ChaseForBook9
...
This is a strange day
*grins* That you will. *feels Christopher crawl over* So do any of you have a spouse yet? *gently picks the baby out* sorry he's mine, he likes to crawl anywhere near me
(Trip, I asked myself the same thing about Nic)
*in between bouts of laughter* Oh, yes, of course... Never better... It's just, you know, something Precocious once said... What de Hecke... And then still- that's my last name... Stille... *continues to laugh hysterically*
Ysabel: *gasps* Oh, he's lovely!
Ethor: *glances at Pieter, who shakes his head, then back at Zafira* No, I don't think any of us are married.
#ChaseForBook9
*Hops lightly from her seat and goes to the sink, taking the pan and beginning to wash both*
*smiles to Ysabel* You want to hold him? His name is Christopher. *tilts head upon hearing the answer* What do you last remember before coming here, any of you?
...
*Smiles slightly* Well, it's nice to see you laughing then
Oh, time to drink! *downs the light, and then begins to stretch and distort, screaming more and more, until finally everything just stops. Everyone feels nothing, says nothing, the world seems to have become nothing, thinking is difficult. And then suddenly they feel everything, and then they're back to how they were when Trip went away. The whole process seems to take about twenty seconds. *
#ChaseForBook9
My presence was/is required to watch football, sorry.
Probably won't be returning for real.
*continues to laugh* And Craon... Crayon...
Ysabel: Oh, I would be honored, thank you! *carefully holds Christopher, smiling fondly at him*
Ethor: Ysabel and I can't remember much past the time I was thirteen and she was eleven. We were living in Itally with aunt Margot.
Pieter: The last thing I remember is watching a hanging in England when I was twenty two, a few centuries ago. Why do you ask?
#ChaseForBook9
(...I'm sorry Fabi! :/ *huggles* Bye..)
...
...
...
...
That idiot better have not just messed something up. *Glares at Trip* what was that?
((Hello and potentially goodbye, then, Jade.))
#ChaseForBook9
Christopher; *is quiet and calm gazing at Ysabel
I was curious. I'm just trying to figure out how long ago you all can remember. You know I know a Sensitive if you truly wanted your memories. But maybe it is best not to, I know I have a few memories hidden for a reason.
Anyone here read any of my story We Are Young? Wanna have an opinion on something :P
((No, Flora, I'm afraid I haven't.))
Ethor: We're very grateful for your offer, but it's probably safest if we remember on our own, as we need to.
#ChaseForBook9
(Flora! I think I read a bit a while back. :P but OI. Adrora?)
*Quickly finishes the dishes, wiping them down with a cloth and sets them out to dry*
*Wipes her hands off*
That's alright. So what did you guys study, magic wisd?
...hmm.
*She glides into her cupboard and grabs a little bottle, gets herself two pills, and downs them with a glass of water before putting them back, to go clear the rest of the kitchen*
Ethor: I studied elemental magic.
Pieter: I was interested in Necromancy, at first, but Aunt Margot didn't trust the necromancers, so I became a teleporter instead.
Ysabel: I wanted to become a healer.
#ChaseForBook9
No worries Niccolo!
Loki doki, wanna read something for me then Adra? Yeah? YEah? You know you want tooooo :D (It's only a few sentences long)
(you don't have to if you don't want to :P)
ADRORAAAAAAAAAAAAA <3
(Could you email it to me, Flora?)
Interesting. I'm a Necromancer actually, so I can see why you'd want to Pieter. I think all of you picked something good
*Glances around*
Huh.
*Walks from the kitchen, pouring herself a glass of wine before sitting with her tablet, looking over a few functions in the lab*
*She hears a faint explosion*
*Closes her eyes* I swear to God... *Immediately gets to work on her lab*
*finally calms down* Ah, Precocious. I'll have to thank her for that later. So, how are you?
Ysabel: *smiles* Thank you.
#ChaseForBook9
Of course. *Javier walks by*
Javier: Hello are you all Croatoan's family?
Javier....(May I ask how old they would be now?
I did it! Paradox free time travel! And the price is only agonising death and a perilous adventure where you will almost certainly die! Huzzah!
#ChaseForBook9
*Doesnt break eye contact with her tablet, tapping quickly on the screen* Shh. I'm concentrating.
*A few symbols light up on the wall, and fade**bites the inside of her cheek as she concentrates*
And I just deleted a paradox from the coding of the universe! Isn't that worth some kind of congratulation?
#ChaseForBook9
(Done it. Thank you Adra!)
People were people
So their nightmares came through
Now our world is full of nightmares
Left from you
Your screams were loud
but now you're sound
Asleep, for I
Helped guide you down
Down from the thrones that you're all on
Welcome to the one track minded age
Welcome to the one track minded
So sure of yourself, no your self's gone
Welcome to the one track minded age
Welcome to the one track minded age
((msd for food again soon, sorry. I'll be back, though.))
#ChaseForBook9
*Sighs, and glances up with a smile* Yes, Trip. It really is. *Goes to him and throws her arms around him, kisses him*
Right
I'm sorry, but I have to tend to something, but we can talk more on this later...
*Gives him another smile, then sprints up her staircase to the third flor and dashes down the hallway, looking at the screen as she goes*
*
(Okay Aretha *waves*)
(Okay Ari!
*mumbling* I was thinking more along the lines of well done and a pat on the head. But that wasn't a bad alternative...
#ChaseForBook9
*After running down long, confusing stairwells and hallways deeper into the mountain, she gets to an atrium- one of the walls is caved in, and a fire is burning, as well as bookshelves, ancient texts, burning, black smoke rising from their knowledgeable texts*
*Priya's lying in the center, and Adra runs to her, kneeling next to the fallen girl*
*Puts a hand against her neck, and feels a faint heartbeat*
*Grimaces, noticing the deep bash in the girl's shoulder, warm blood pooling onto the floor*
Priya....
Oh goodness.
*Footsteps*
...
*Gets to her feet and turns, face to face with Lorelei, her mask on over her flaming red hair*
Hello again, Adra.
*runs after Adra, losing his way a little, then follows the trail that her panic left to get back on track*
#ChaseForBook9
*Pulls out a sword from her bag and tosses it to the side, standing protectively over Priya's still form, and. with a wave of her hand, sprinklers go off and begin to douse the books of their flame*
Lorelei.
How kind of you do demolish my lab.
*Lorelei smiles* It was nothing, really. *She draws her own sword* I shall enjoy carving you up. You've done a lot better, since I emptied an entire gun on you a few days previous.
*Adra glares* It was stupid to leave me there to die. Honestly. You should have known that I'd have found a way.
*The two swords meet in the middle, each person being careful with their footing as they square off*
Oh, gosh. :P
You know my plotline where dead people come back? I was making past people come back, because that happened in the other version in Artemis Fowl's dimension and then I was like HANG ON THIS ISN'T MATCHING UP HERE and anyway, you know how people, when meeting Hunter and Ez, just sort of decide there's something between them and then HUnter and Ez themselves have to turn around and glare and give them a speech? Well, the past versions of themselves just started assuming they were going out and Hunter and Ez are just like WELL FOR FUCK'S SAKE.
:P
Basically, even themselves think they're going out now. It's risen to ridiculous levels, this. XD
#ChaseForBookNine
*Trip has been watching from the doorway, coughs rather loudly*
#ChaseForBook9
(EZTER)
lol Star. Herrow *hugs*
#ChaseForBook9
Alexis: *lays in room* Oh Lorcan...where are you?
*The two don't look at Trip*
Trip, please get Priya out of here.
I could completely incapacitate your assailant if you'd like? *walks over to Priya*
#ChaseForBook9
Or..... You could let me, because she's my problem, and you can make sure that Priya doesn't die.
Ahhh, dinner!
Back later!
Bye Flora.
Very well. I'll come back, after I make Priya better. *picks up Priya and spins coat around self, it folds in on itself until non-existent, and then unfolds itself in the loft of the bar*
#ChaseForBook9
"In a way, the beatings were self-defeating. The bruises and welts mended, but each new lashing left Vin hardened. Stronger."
Damn, that's such an interesting point.
"I consider myself to be a man of principle. But, what man does not? Even the cutthroat, I have noticed, considers his actions "moral" after a fashion.
Perhaps another person, reading of my life, would name me a religious tyrant. He could call me arrogant. What is to make that man's opinion any less valid than my own?
I guess it all comes down to one fact: In the end, I'm the one with the armies."
I've only just started reading this book, but I like it. :)
And will probably go back to reading it. Wbd, msd.
#ChaseForBookNine
(Bye Flora!!)
*inspects the wound* My my young lady. You have gotten yourself hurt.
*rushes over to the stuff, picks up a pink stone, a ruby like crystal and a teacup, presses a symbol on the teacup's handle and a perfect cup of tea is brewed, rushes back over to Priya, puts the pink stone in her hand* Life stone, as long as you hold it you will not die. Until it loses charge in three days. *puts the crystal in her hand* Blood stone, while holding it you'll produce blood at and increased rate, so you won't die of blood loss. And a cup of tea. *put it on the floor*
#ChaseForBook9
(OKay Star.... *hugs*)
*The two meet again in the middle, and swing to the side, Adra stomping on Lorelei's knee, and shoving her back*
*Swings a punch to her face, and pushes her against the wall, pressing the tip of the sword against her throat*
*Hisses* Get out of my lab, and tell those idiots to stop trying to kill me. It's fucking obnoxious.
*Adra grabs her by the collar and swings her around so she rolls against the floor, glaring*
*Lorelei growls and pounces on Adra*
*still thinking about Plan B*
#ChaseForBookNine
*Priya smiles weakly, but otherwise doesn't do anything*
(Ta, Star :P)
*rushes back over to a pile, takes out a box labelled 'erbs*
#ChaseForBook9
((It needs thinking about.
I have a basic idea, but I'm not entirely sure how to go about it.
And how to make sure it doesn't seem just like I'm saying I can do things just because I want to do them without working out how they're impossible.))
In my book, this girl's brother told her that you should never trust anyone, that people would always betray you, and to prove it, he betrayed her and abandoned her. He said it was the only way she'd learn.
(I'm sorry, it's just so interesting.)))

Hiya, Adra!
Hiya, Star!
Hiya, Trip!
I dedicate this page to the Bible this Sunday afternoon, the most important book in the world.
God, they tell you it the first time you meet her. :P

#ChaseForBookNine
*The two tumble over each other, flipping kicking, throwing, and punching, back and forth until Adra, eventually, pins the girl to the floor*
*She rips the mask off*
*Lorelei's face is scarred horribly,her bright green eyes dull against the dark skin**Lorelei hisses*
You did this to me, Adrasdos. My brother died from the fire. I was, unfortunately spared.
You should have died instead.
*Adra's mouth opens slightly, shocked at the grotesque skin of the girl*
*Lorelei jabs upward into her rib cage with her knee, and Adra falls to the side*
*Lorelei manages to get a few kicks in to Adra's sides, and one across her face*
*She growls* Perhaps you're right. You aren't to die. Yet.
*With another hiss, she grabs the mask and places it back on, disappearing down the hole from the explosion*
I'm good, Trip. :D I'm probably going to post a recipe for red velvet cupcakes. ~is browsing through my photos~
How are you??
lol, the holidays DO go by insanely quickly, Star.
(SKY! *hugs*)
She don't know where the years go
She's too young to be so low
Trapped inside of these four walls
She doesn't know what she's worth at all now
She still stares out the window
She don't dare to give up hope
She's clinging to the last remains
'Cause that's the only thing that's gonna save her
She tries so hard to smile
Though the tears run down
Though the tears run down
We're like stars
Waiting to shine
We're just waiting for our moment to arrive
And these are just dark days
We must survive
They can try dim us but they can't turn out the light
'Cause we're like stars
We're like stars
He left home for the bright lights
They ripped a hole in his blue sky
Now it's seems the rain won't stop
He's been here like the man time forgot now
He's so tired of his friend's floor
He keeps a bag by the back door
He's praying for his great escape
It could be coming, coming any day now
He tries so hard to smile
'Cause he can't break down
No he won't break down
We're like stars
Waiting to shine
We're just waiting for our moment to arrive
And these are just dark days
We must survive
They can try dim us but they can't turn out the light
'Cause we're like stars
We're like stars
You're in tears
But you go proud
You're just down
But you're not out
Don't you know
Oh ooh
We're like stars
Waiting to shine
We're just waiting for our moment to arrive
And these are just dark days
We must survive
They can try dim us but they can't turn out the light
We're like stars
Waiting to shine
We're just waiting for our moment to arrive
These are just dark days
We must survive
They can try dim us but they can't turn out the light
'Cause we're like stars
Hullo...?
