I wonder what the chapter from the new book will be like? And is that cover art re-used? I can't quite tell but the style of Skul is different, and the Tanith art looks re-used....
Ooooooh! My Golden God... This is going to be soooooo cool! I'm really excited for this! Although it will probably only be out next year in Germany... but I will wait. Maybe not. Maybe I'll just buy it in English. Yes. But still... I'm excited! :D
I rather like A Midsummer Night's Dream, Julius Caesar, and Henry V.
I dislike Romeo and Juliet. It's basically a more modern rendition of Pyramus and Thisbe.
In any case, I should probably go now, before any escalation. And, I have to continue drawing Hunter's eyes and listening to hauntingly beautiful music.
I am unashamed to admit that I am tearing up looking at this glorious cover. I am also unashamed to proudly proclaim to my friends that my favorite book series has a book called Armageddon Outta Here.
And I agree with you on the Romeo and Juliet front, Adra, however it is still one of those things that every young scholar must experience at least once.
It's not as ace as the title, because NOTHING IS AS ACE AS THAT TITLE (apart from the things that are), but it is CLOSE, and do you know how ace that is???????????????
. . . I was saying about how she and Alastair would probably get on pretty well, and then I was saying about how he believes in embracing sadism and somewhere along the line she asked what a sadist was and I told her it was a person that takes pleasure from other people suffering, and she was like ooh, I think I'm one of them, and I, who am still slightly miffed about her torturing me into including about a billion different directions in my little thingy (I now have 'invisible directions' and 'non-existent directions'. What is life. :P And I was shouting at her about how evil she was and about how I reminded her of Annika because I would be sitting there crying my eyes out and she would be LAUGHING and I would be like WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME THIS HURTS SO MUCH and she would be ENJOYING IT and I was like YOU ARE LIKE HER YOU ARE SO MEAN I SWEAR and she was just laughing her head off and I was like WHAT IS SO FUNNY and anyway), so I was like yeah, I think you are, and she was like OOOH, I'M A SADIST! and then she thought about it and she was like OH MY GOSH MY WHOLE LIFE MAKES SENSE NOW and then he was like B, I'm a sadist! and I was like, you do know that's like going around saying "I'm a psychopath?" And she was like, but I am a sadist! *facepalm* And then she was like, that's probably why I like watching Saw so much, because it's just people suffering, and you know, her and B often talk about films where people suffer and then they go IT'S SO HILARIOUS and they're just laughing their heads off and the rest of us are just sat there like . . . okay . . . :P
Anyway. She's a sadist. *facepalm* My best friend is apparently a sadist. I'm still trying to come to terms with that. :P
You know in Sherlock when John is just like "WHY ARE ALL THE PEOPLE I LIKE BEST SO HORRIBLE" and Sherlock just tells him it's because it's who he is and that's why he gravitates to those people?
Well, my friend, one of the people I get along really well with because we understand each other really well and we have the best conversations ever and sometimes I just can't really comprehend how awesome she is . . . she's apparently a sadist. *nods* I'm wondering what that says about me. :P
Star, the only reasons I haven't been DONE with this wedding arc already, are these:
1 - The Chemist needs a token from Sir Reingington in order to finish the curse.
2 - I CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO THE WEDDING.
This has been bothering me. Because I intended to have actual Bloglanders there, but then I would have to set a date, and figure out how to make all the things I need to happen there happen while I have all these little variables running around, and it's be QUITE ABSURD.
Um well um You could just set a date and hope people turn up? I mean, don't try and go to masses of masses-ness, just tell people it's on and presumably they'll make an effort. * . . . nods?*
Alastair will find out. *nods* Remember he's being roleplayed by Ari (although it's hard to remember. XD)
Why are my favourite people sadists??? D: The sadistic characters always rock, and I told this to my friend C and she was like "Yay, I'm ace!" and I was like NO NO NO NO SADISM IS BAD. *facepalm*
@Silente: She hurts ME. *facepalm* When I want to say "Right," I now, partially because of Hunter, partially because of Fabi, and mostly because of her BECAUSE SHE DOES THIS TO ME have to say "right-left-diagonal-up-down-circular-curvy-multipledirections-invisibledirections-nonexistenentdirections and OH MY GOSH IT'S SUCH A MOUTHFUL I said 'right' inn English today and then had to go through the whole process and it was just like - *facepalm* Although fair point, Silente. :) And she's awesome, as well. Urgh. :P Urgh WHY ARE SADISTS SO AWESOME? I mean, my friend C is awesome, and Alastair is awesome, and Drake from Gone is rather awesome although not nearly as much as the other two which is not because he's not awesome but because they are so awesome, and then you have people like Darth Vader who is rather sadistic and then Morgana from Merlin who's just ace and then OH MY GOSH WHY WORLD WHY. *facepalms*
That's an interesting point, Star. *bites lip* *thinking* That may be the best thing I can do. Set a date, and whoever wants to come, can come. After all, the story with proceed relatively uninhibited by Bloglandian guests . . . there's nothing they can do to stop the curse . . . and the pain . . . and the revelation of the identity of the Chemist . . . But, anyway, that may be best. Just write it out. If people come, they can come. If not, they can read it on Superfluous afterwards. And maybe once I'm done the wedding, I can do more stand-alone works, rather than long, over-arching stories. I like that idea. I believe I'll use it.
PEOPLE THINK IT'S FUNNY TO TORTURE ME I SWEAR and maybe it is quite funny BUT IT'S ONLY FUNNY BECAUSE WHEN OTHER PEOPLE LAUGH I LAUGH SO MY BRAIN TELLS ME IT'S FUNNY BUT EVEN THOUGH IT FEELS LIKE IT'S FUNNY THERE'S NOTHING FUNNY ABOUT IT i think.
You will be missed or like, not mostly not in fact, we'll probably throw parties about your departure although, I'm not sure we can be bothered BUT ANYWAY bye. :)
Star came to conscious slowly, so slowly she was thinking about things before she actually realised she was conscious. Then she suddenly thought - hey, I'm conscious, and that was it, she was conscious. She had been thinking about how she hurt, and vaguely wondering why that was, but once she realised she was conscious, she opened her cardboard boxes full of conscious thoughts and right on top were her most recent memories. Star immediately attempted to close the box again. She didn't want to revisit it. She was glad she'd stopped mostly hurting, though. It was very nice. Light, free. She thought it might be worth hurting just to stop hurting at the end, but immediately crumpled that thought up and chucked it far away from her precious cardboard boxes. It was far too stupid. Apparently, the folder of recent memories was too thick a wodge of paper to merely crumple up and throw away, however, so Star just closed her eyes - oh, wait, she didn't need to, they were already closed - DAMN, that was stupid, you should OPEN your eyes. Star opened her eyes and watched a roof of rock appear in her vision. Okay. Hello, rock. Where was she? Star thought back - no, she didn't. Don't think back. She didn't remember anything, anyway. Star sat up. Pain crackled down pretty much every part of her body, but compared to yesterday - No. Don't think about yesterday. In front of Star was a forest. The Blogland forest? Possibly. Forests all seemed to look the same, though. I mean, trees, more trees, sky, tree, ground, trees, trees. The trees could differ, but you still repeatedly found the same types of trees in all parts of the world. Star moved her head around, looking this way and that, and saw someone, lying on the ground. Aretha. Star's eyes widened, and she wondered for an absurd moment if she was a hallucination. Then she realised it wasn't so absurd. Star studied Aretha carefully, but she appeared to be sleeping. She wasn't dead, was she? Hallucinating dead bodies was something people hallucinated, wasn't it? Star tentatively reached over and put her hand on Aretha's forehead. It was warm. Not dead. Then why . . . ? Star reluctantly thought back, and remembered Alastair saying he'd done something with her. Apparently he liked to take bodies he'd near-killed to the same place. Star leant over. "Aretha," she whispered. Ari didn't respond. Star looked at Ari with trepidation. She'd never been much good at waking people up. "Aretha," she whispered louder, before realising - why was she whispering? "Ari," she said, but her voice sounded awfully loud in the silence. Star awkwardly tried to shake Aretha, but she didn't wake up. Cup of cold water on her face. From where? Star shrugged and lay back down, attempting to go to sleep. But her memories swirled around in her brain, tugging her into them whenever she tried to disappear into said brain, and it - well, it was hardly nice. Star sighed and stood up, walking around Ari in a circle, trying to think of something to think about. Everything seemed too distant, clouded over by the memories. Star debated just walking off, but she'd only get lost, and besides, Ari was here. She sat down and played with a stick, debating what to do.
When did he take Ari? God damn it. He's getting too good at this. *starts pacing back and forth* We need a way to stop him *turns and paces* Or to at least weaken him. To bind his powers. But how. I can't get near him. The idiot is just trying to break me by using them. But how to break him..
((Sorry, Silente, I would like to collaborate you, but Star's in the forest.))
((. . . I should probably invent a new character. XD))
Oh my gosh, you know when you've filled a page with lots of little sentences and then you realised you've typoed a word and you have two extra letters to get in and - *facepalm* I put 'pherome' rather than 'pheromone'. Why
*turns and stalks the other way* ..how do you break a murderous sadist? What would hurt them. Not pain, plus I can't cause him physical pain. So it has to be mental pain. Hmm.. *stops pacing* Wait why am I thinking of him? I'm letting him get to me! No I will not sucum to his wishes! *shakes her head and smiles* *starts dancing around in her combat boots, black skinny jeans and tight fitting black T-shirt* *smiles as her silver hair tickles her face*
The great thing thing about this new font of mine, though - it's meant to look erratic, so if I go wrong and my corrections make it look erratic, it's all good. :) :)
((No I won't think about him. He won't have the pleasure of my thoughts!)) ((Star may need to survive on her own a while..)) ((At least until I find her))
A sadist is someone who find joy in another's pain. Alastair is a murderous sadist who will not break me. *smiles* Anyway enough of him. Hello there Luna how are you.
I'm good, I think. Not really sure... I guess I would know if I wasn't good, so I must be okay. How are you?? And... who enjoys other people's pain? That's a bit...
Thinking of him will just please him. As will talking of him. When he shows up I shall not crumble! I shall not let him hurt people if I can help it. And Luna Alastair enjoys others pain. He also enjoys causing it. In fact that's what he keeps doing. No matter how hard I try. But never mind. I will prevail in the end. Also I'm fine thank you.
You're kidding, right-left-diagonal-up-down-circular-curvy-mutipledirections-invisibledirections-nonexistentdirections (damn my friend), Dragona?
He almost killed me yesterday, don't know if you noticed. -_-
He actually scares me. :P
(He's so awesome though. I came into school today going HE'S SO AWESOME and my friend was like IF HE ALMOST KILLED YOU WHY DO YOU LIKE HIM and I'm like BECAUSE HE'S AWESOME)
I'm not kidding, no. Most of what he does concerns trying to get into your mind. Don't let him affect you and he won't do anything. Nothing at all. He attempted it on me but yes, it didn't work.
He's sort of after everyone. Since he's been watching for a while (stalker) he's decided the best way to break me is to hurt my friends in front of me..
*and so I sat and awaited the devils undeniable approach* *I wonder who he would go after this time*
Soz bored and slightly glittery. Glittery! Glittery is actually a word! Yup feeling glittery! *pulls glitter from her pockets* *spins and throws glitter around*
EVERY COLOUR! *dances around joyously letting glitter fly out around her* *swirls and twirls smiling at the way her silver hair shimmered in the moonlight*
I AGREE HUNTER WOULD DISAGREE EZ WOULD AGREE. SHE FINDS GLITTER ANNOYING. IT GETS EVEYRWHERE AND IT'S A NIGHTMARE TO GET OUT. IT JAMS UP KEYBOARDS AND STUFF. IT'S SO TIRESOME.
And reindeers are better than people *smiles at the quote* *omg its only 3days* *wait three days?* *omgomgomgomgomg!* *dances and twirls laughing into the night and freeing the never ending glitter watching it fall around her-
THEY THROW THE MATCHES DOWN INTO THE GLITTER, NOT A DRY EYE LEFT IN THE HOUSE GO BOY, GO BOY, RUN FOR YOUR LIFE GO BOY, GO BOY, RUN FOR YOUR LIFE GO BOY, GO BOY, RUN FOR YOUR LIFE
WE'RE ALL FIGHTING GROWING OLLLLLLLLLD, WE'RE ALL FIGHTING GROWING OLDDDDDDDDD IN THE HOPES OF A FEW MINUTES MORE
Oh my god, this looks like some pretty badass shiznit!! I can't wait to read this as soon as it comes out, I definitely know it'll be as epic as all your other brilliant works Mr. Landy
However, whatever wonderful people like you say, the fact remains that I can't really write. :P Not like you. :) :) :) *hugs* (I mean, I can't write, you can, it's amazing, not 'I can't write like you'. Nobody can write exactly like anyone else, whether they can write or not, so it's a stupid statement._
@Luna: Wow, for once in my life I actually WAS being modest. O_O Usually I'm just like "I'm so awesome, you lot can't even compare" and everyone else is like "You're so modest, Star!" and I'm like "IKR" Or "IKRLDUDCCMIN". :P
And I have a proof copy. It's awesome. It's . . . *tilts head* *gives up on that sentence* *I can't describe things*
*or explain things* *I mean seriously, when I try to explain things to people in lessons, they never understand me -_-* *if I'm not the only one to understand it, I generally call someone else over so they can explain instead, because my explainee generally looks more confused than when I started*
Star your a little modest...and you don't just call yourself awesome! You randomly turned around to me when I came on one day and was like, oh I wanted to tell you you're awesome! Still here BTW just...not really talking..I feel my input I not yet needed :-)
Looks like the coolest cover. Wow finally. Can't wait for the "wraparound cover" whatever that means... Is it like for the hardcover books, or like for a box-set type of thing...
Anyway, and after that it's the title for book 9! WOOOHHHHHOOOOO
@Luna: WE CAN BE UNUNDERSTANDABLE TOGETHER! *attempts to dance off into the sunset* *due to being a bubble, just ends up kind of floating slowly into the sunset* *which is still pretty, I guess :P*
@Silente: Really? O_O Are you sure you're feeling alright???
... Do you mind if I call one of my characters your given name, by the way? It's a gorgeous name and I like to make my friends know they're appreciated by slipping them into my writing. :P
@Mushroom: :) :) :) I'd be honoured! :) It is pretty, isn't it? :) Holly Idk. :P I quite like my given name, really . . . But Star is just ace, so. :P And - :) *hugs* You know, in Blogland, you make friends, and then they leave, and then you miss them, and you're sad, but then you meet more friends and it's kind of okay that old Blogland isn't there anymore, and then the awesomeness goes on. But even though you have a whole load more awesomeness to fill your life with, no one can ever, ever replace your old friends, because there's no one like them in the world and however hard you look, the only person you will find that can compare to them is them. . . . I should learn how to keep in touch with people effectively . . . And - *hugs* I don't really know what I can say here, because 'I miss you too' just doesn't really cut it, but it will have to do, I suppose.
Well technically I was making an image of a blackcurrant from the Ribena adverts with dragon wings to make it look like the stupid dragons from How To Train Your Dragon to make a point, but yeah that's poofing.

I wonder what the chapter from the new book will be like? And is that cover art re-used? I can't quite tell but the style of Skul is different, and the Tanith art looks re-used....
I'm so excited for this XD
Oh jesus.
Im so fricken excited for this. And that sneaky chapter will possibly kill me
Ooooooh!
My Golden God...
This is going to be soooooo cool! I'm really excited for this! Although it will probably only be out next year in Germany... but I will wait. Maybe not. Maybe I'll just buy it in English. Yes.
But still... I'm excited! :D
Wonderful, Derek darling!
I MAY OR MAY NOT BE IN LOVE WITH THIS COVER
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE O_O :D
In case you missed, Silente- I said that Moby Dick is awful.
Never read it.
Ever.
I am here!
Annika-
I rather like A Midsummer Night's Dream, Julius Caesar, and Henry V.
I dislike Romeo and Juliet. It's basically a more modern rendition of Pyramus and Thisbe.
In any case, I should probably go now, before any escalation. And, I have to continue drawing Hunter's eyes and listening to hauntingly beautiful music.
*nods*
*Bows*
OMFG ITS SO BEAUTIFUL I WANT IT!
Oh I probably won't read it. Classic tend to give me a head he for some reason.
(Ps- Romeo and Juliet is just terrible, in my opinion.)
I am unashamed to admit that I am tearing up looking at this glorious cover. I am also unashamed to proudly proclaim to my friends that my favorite book series has a book called Armageddon Outta Here.
Bye then Adra!
*waves*
And I agree with you on the Romeo and Juliet front, Adra, however it is still one of those things that every young scholar must experience at least once.
This is so cool!!!!!!!
OH MY FUCKING GOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*screams*
THAT'S SO ACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) :) :) :) :)
*posts comment so I can carry on looking at it*
#ChaseForBookNine
Thats soooo cool
It's not as ace as the title, because NOTHING IS AS ACE AS THAT TITLE (apart from the things that are), but it is CLOSE, and do you know how ace that is???????????????
#ChaseForBookNine
Anyway. The comment I was about to post -
My friend C is a sadist.
. . .
I was saying about how she and Alastair would probably get on pretty well, and then I was saying about how he believes in embracing sadism and somewhere along the line she asked what a sadist was and I told her it was a person that takes pleasure from other people suffering, and she was like ooh, I think I'm one of them, and I, who am still slightly miffed about her torturing me into including about a billion different directions in my little thingy (I now have 'invisible directions' and 'non-existent directions'. What is life. :P
And I was shouting at her about how evil she was and about how I reminded her of Annika because I would be sitting there crying my eyes out and she would be LAUGHING and I would be like WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME THIS HURTS SO MUCH and she would be ENJOYING IT and I was like YOU ARE LIKE HER YOU ARE SO MEAN I SWEAR and she was just laughing her head off and I was like WHAT IS SO FUNNY and anyway), so I was like yeah, I think you are, and she was like OOOH, I'M A SADIST! and then she thought about it and she was like OH MY GOSH MY WHOLE LIFE MAKES SENSE NOW and then he was like B, I'm a sadist! and I was like, you do know that's like going around saying "I'm a psychopath?" And she was like, but I am a sadist!
*facepalm*
And then she was like, that's probably why I like watching Saw so much, because it's just people suffering, and you know, her and B often talk about films where people suffer and then they go IT'S SO HILARIOUS and they're just laughing their heads off and the rest of us are just sat there like . . . okay . . .
:P
Anyway.
She's a sadist.
*facepalm*
My best friend is apparently a sadist.
I'm still trying to come to terms with that. :P
(We're not joking, you know. We're serious.)
(Urgh. :P)
#ChaseForBookNine
The title . . .
and the art . . .
I just . . .
It's so beautiful and punny.
*laughs at Star's pain and anguish*
Oh. My. God. I'm laughing. I thought he was joking he actually called it Armageddon Outta Here
You know in Sherlock when John is just like "WHY ARE ALL THE PEOPLE I LIKE BEST SO HORRIBLE" and Sherlock just tells him it's because it's who he is and that's why he gravitates to those people?
Well, my friend, one of the people I get along really well with because we understand each other really well and we have the best conversations ever and sometimes I just can't really comprehend how awesome she is . . . she's apparently a sadist. *nods*
I'm wondering what that says about me. :P
#ChaseForBookNine
*pokes Star* YOU USE ACE AS WELL NOW?!
Hullo, Luciana, and everyone who's coming on.
Hello. ^_^
I'm editing Imperfect once more and sort of writing AU and TDOAPB and a few other things at the same time. :)
YOU SEE, ANNIKA???
THIS IS WHAT I MEAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*screams and throws a pencil sharpener at her*
I DO, MUSHROOM!!! :) :)
*hugs*
#ChaseForBookNine
I wish I were writing or editing right now.
*frowns*
@Mushroom: Cool! :) :)
And - *gives her a hug for being my friend and not a sadist and/or an enjoyer of my suffering*
#ChaseForBookNine
Ah, a new post. Delightful.
In any case, good morning, afternoon, evening, or other time of day, Blogland.
Hello, Sir. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Star, the only reasons I haven't been DONE with this wedding arc already, are these:
1 - The Chemist needs a token from Sir Reingington in order to finish the curse.
2 - I CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO THE WEDDING.
This has been bothering me.
Because I intended to have actual Bloglanders there, but then I would have to set a date, and figure out how to make all the things I need to happen there happen while I have all these little variables running around, and it's be QUITE ABSURD.
I need a cuppa tea.
Your friend C doesn't sound to bad..I mean its one thing to BE a sadist, its completely different to hurt people due to being a sadist..
..do you think Alastair will find out there's a new blog?
oh my gosh THAT COVER!!! *screams*
(sorry it's just it's so ACE and OH MY GOSH the TITLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D)
#ChaseForBookNine
Ah, hullo Sir. You slept well, I trust?
*still grumbling about Oscar and Precocious's wedding*
Hey sir!
*hands annika a cup of tea*
*also hands her milk and sugar*
See, look, I was so riled up that I mis-typed something up there.
*frowns at one of my comments*
I have to sort out this wedding nonsense.
*huggles Star* I've missed you.
I've been writing all day. And flirting. And avoiding doing proper work. And writing some more. And editing. God, I hate editing. :I
*takes the tea*
*adds a sugar*
*sips*
. . .
*breathes deeply*
*exhales*
Ahh.
I feel a little better, now.
Really? I enjoy editing.
*slowly stirs tea*
As you can likely guess, I'm great fun at parties.
*smirks*
Hey Luci! Sorry didn't see you join earlier :-)
How are we all then?
Greetings, Ms. Inkbright, Ms. Tempest, Ms. Barnosky, Ms. Scáth, and possibly Ms. Kerias.
Indeed, Ms. Barnosky.
Oh, good.
Mother of Pie. It's glorious!
(Hi everyone)
@Annika: Oh, dear. :P
Oh, dear.
Oh, dear. XD
Um
well
um
You could just set a date and hope people turn up? I mean, don't try and go to masses of masses-ness, just tell people it's on and presumably they'll make an effort.
* . . . nods?*
Alastair will find out. *nods*
Remember he's being roleplayed by Ari (although it's hard to remember. XD)
Why are my favourite people sadists??? D:
The sadistic characters always rock, and I told this to my friend C and she was like "Yay, I'm ace!" and I was like NO NO NO NO SADISM IS BAD.
*facepalm*
@Silente: She hurts ME.
*facepalm*
When I want to say "Right," I now, partially because of Hunter, partially because of Fabi, and mostly because of her BECAUSE SHE DOES THIS TO ME have to say "right-left-diagonal-up-down-circular-curvy-multipledirections-invisibledirections-nonexistenentdirections and OH MY GOSH IT'S SUCH A MOUTHFUL I said 'right' inn English today and then had to go through the whole process and it was just like - *facepalm*
Although fair point, Silente. :)
And she's awesome, as well.
Urgh. :P
Urgh
WHY ARE SADISTS SO AWESOME?
I mean, my friend C is awesome, and Alastair is awesome, and Drake from Gone is rather awesome although not nearly as much as the other two which is not because he's not awesome but because they are so awesome, and then you have people like Darth Vader who is rather sadistic and then Morgana from Merlin who's just ace and then OH MY GOSH WHY WORLD WHY.
*facepalms*
#ChaseForBookNine
That's an interesting point, Star.
*bites lip*
*thinking*
That may be the best thing I can do. Set a date, and whoever wants to come, can come. After all, the story with proceed relatively uninhibited by Bloglandian guests . . . there's nothing they can do to stop the curse . . . and the pain . . . and the revelation of the identity of the Chemist . . .
But, anyway, that may be best. Just write it out. If people come, they can come. If not, they can read it on Superfluous afterwards.
And maybe once I'm done the wedding, I can do more stand-alone works, rather than long, over-arching stories.
I like that idea.
I believe I'll use it.
Gtg food bbs!
@Mushroom: :/
Although
once you have edited
YOU DON'T NEED TO EDIT ANYMORE!
until you need to edit again
BUT OH WELL
so it's rather good in a way?
:P
@Annika: :/
I start to feel sorry for you
and then I remember how evil you are to me and the majority of my pity evaporates. :P
*hugs Mushroom*
I've missed you. :)
You're so YOU. :) And I never get that from anyone but you. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
*will
*nods at Annika encouragingly* :)
#ChaseForBookNine
*nods at Star encouragingly*
oh my gosh THAT COVER!!!!
*is just repeatedly moving in circles, like cover-sadists-conversation-cover-sadists-cover-conversation-sadists-*
XD
#ChaseForBookNine
I know, I keep looking at the cover as well.
Oh!
Oh!
Speaking of role-play!
There's a new little scene on Superfluous. Just a bit between the Chemist and Hassle, but I felt it needed to be there.
I DON'T NEED ENCOURAGING
oh yeah I do
I NEED ENCOUARGING TO GET THROUGH THE EMOTIONAL TORMENT :O
And now, I should probably be doing either homework or word art or roleplay, so like, yeah . . .
I'd rather like Star to wake up and stuffs before Alastair gets here. :P I know where she is because email.
I love emails.
OKAY
CALMER NOW
*nods*
#ChaseForBookNine
@Annika: Yay! :) :)
#ChaseForBookNine
I know much of Alistair, but neither I nor Precocious nor Oscar have had the 'pleasure' of meeting him.
Yeah
'pleasure'. :P
#ChaseForBookNine
PEOPLE THINK IT'S FUNNY TO TORTURE ME I SWEAR and maybe it is quite funny BUT IT'S ONLY FUNNY BECAUSE WHEN OTHER PEOPLE LAUGH I LAUGH SO MY BRAIN TELLS ME IT'S FUNNY BUT EVEN THOUGH IT FEELS LIKE IT'S FUNNY THERE'S NOTHING FUNNY ABOUT IT i think.
#ChaseForBookNine
Okay
wbd
hopefully. :/
#ChaseForBookNine
*checks watch*
I'm afraid I must go.
Fours, Annika . . . :(
You will be missed
or like, not
mostly not
in fact, we'll probably throw parties about your departure
although, I'm not sure we can be bothered
BUT ANYWAY bye. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
*drily* I feel so loved.
*departs with a cheery wave*
It's only three short stories?
I feel lied to.
Don't worry star. Just say near me and he won't get to ya. I doubt he'll be on for another hour and three quarters or so. I'll protect ya.
I AM SO SORRY FOR VANISHING!
I got really into this editing stuff. :P
Hey Flame how are you?!
Luci that's fine a lotta people are distant right now..
Star came to conscious slowly, so slowly she was thinking about things before she actually realised she was conscious. Then she suddenly thought - hey, I'm conscious, and that was it, she was conscious.
She had been thinking about how she hurt, and vaguely wondering why that was, but once she realised she was conscious, she opened her cardboard boxes full of conscious thoughts and right on top were her most recent memories.
Star immediately attempted to close the box again.
She didn't want to revisit it.
She was glad she'd stopped mostly hurting, though. It was very nice. Light, free. She thought it might be worth hurting just to stop hurting at the end, but immediately crumpled that thought up and chucked it far away from her precious cardboard boxes. It was far too stupid.
Apparently, the folder of recent memories was too thick a wodge of paper to merely crumple up and throw away, however, so Star just closed her eyes - oh, wait, she didn't need to, they were already closed - DAMN, that was stupid, you should OPEN your eyes.
Star opened her eyes and watched a roof of rock appear in her vision.
Okay.
Hello, rock.
Where was she?
Star thought back - no, she didn't. Don't think back.
She didn't remember anything, anyway.
Star sat up. Pain crackled down pretty much every part of her body, but compared to yesterday -
No. Don't think about yesterday.
In front of Star was a forest. The Blogland forest? Possibly. Forests all seemed to look the same, though. I mean, trees, more trees, sky, tree, ground, trees, trees.
The trees could differ, but you still repeatedly found the same types of trees in all parts of the world.
Star moved her head around, looking this way and that, and saw someone, lying on the ground. Aretha.
Star's eyes widened, and she wondered for an absurd moment if she was a hallucination. Then she realised it wasn't so absurd.
Star studied Aretha carefully, but she appeared to be sleeping.
She wasn't dead, was she?
Hallucinating dead bodies was something people hallucinated, wasn't it?
Star tentatively reached over and put her hand on Aretha's forehead. It was warm.
Not dead.
Then why . . . ?
Star reluctantly thought back, and remembered Alastair saying he'd done something with her.
Apparently he liked to take bodies he'd near-killed to the same place.
Star leant over. "Aretha," she whispered.
Ari didn't respond.
Star looked at Ari with trepidation. She'd never been much good at waking people up.
"Aretha," she whispered louder, before realising - why was she whispering?
"Ari," she said, but her voice sounded awfully loud in the silence.
Star awkwardly tried to shake Aretha, but she didn't wake up.
Cup of cold water on her face.
From where?
Star shrugged and lay back down, attempting to go to sleep. But her memories swirled around in her brain, tugging her into them whenever she tried to disappear into said brain, and it - well, it was hardly nice.
Star sighed and stood up, walking around Ari in a circle, trying to think of something to think about.
Everything seemed too distant, clouded over by the memories.
Star debated just walking off, but she'd only get lost, and besides, Ari was here.
She sat down and played with a stick, debating what to do.
#ChaseForBookNine
FLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMME BAAAAABYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY I LOVE YOU MAN
And it's three NEW stories, you turnip. :P
I just forget I'm online sometimes... Heh.
That looks AMAZING. I can't wait for it to come out! I'm so excited!
@Mushroom: Don't worry, I do that all the time. XD
@Flame: HELLO! And, three short stories AND A NOVELLA
YEAH
/YEAH/
novella
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH NOVELLA-NESS. :) :)
#ChaseForBookNine
(I may have said this before, but that cover is awesome. :O)
#ChaseForBookNine
You know that moment when you just kind of look at the clock and go OH DEAR I HAVE DONE NOGTHING FOR AN HOUR AND A HALF?
:P
*disappears to do something productive or word art, probably word art*
#ChaseForBookNine
When did he take Ari? God damn it. He's getting too good at this.
*starts pacing back and forth*
We need a way to stop him
*turns and paces*
Or to at least weaken him. To bind his powers. But how. I can't get near him. The idiot is just trying to break me by using them. But how to break him..
Oh my shit
Yay! :)
((He TOLD us he took Ari. :P))
((Sorry, Silente, I would like to collaborate you, but Star's in the forest.))
((. . .
I should probably invent a new character. XD))
Oh my gosh, you know when you've filled a page with lots of little sentences and then you realised you've typoed a word and you have two extra letters to get in and - *facepalm*
I put 'pherome' rather than 'pheromone'.
Why
#ChaseForBookNine
*conspire
I meant conspire, not collaborate. :P
#ChaseForBookNine
*turns and stalks the other way*
..how do you break a murderous sadist? What would hurt them. Not pain, plus I can't cause him physical pain. So it has to be mental pain. Hmm..
*stops pacing*
Wait why am I thinking of him? I'm letting him get to me! No I will not sucum to his wishes!
*shakes her head and smiles*
*starts dancing around in her combat boots, black skinny jeans and tight fitting black T-shirt*
*smiles as her silver hair tickles her face*
((That's fine star. I'll be fine. Also don't worry, I'll save you. It might take a while but I WILL find you))
((You idiot, Silente. D:
THINK ABOUT HIMMMMMMMMMMM.))
#ChaseForBookNine
((Thanks. :) :) :) :)
I think Star rather needs to be saved. She's not very good at surviving. :P
*pokes her*))
#ChaseForBookNine
The great thing thing about this new font of mine, though - it's meant to look erratic, so if I go wrong and my corrections make it look erratic, it's all good. :) :)
#ChaseForBookNine
((No I won't think about him. He won't have the pleasure of my thoughts!))
((Star may need to survive on her own a while..))
((At least until I find her))
I feel like I'm intervening :/ Awkward...
What's a sadist? Should I know this? Wth?
A sadist is someone who find joy in another's pain. Alastair is a murderous sadist who will not break me.
*smiles*
Anyway enough of him. Hello there Luna how are you.
I'm good, I think. Not really sure... I guess I would know if I wasn't good, so I must be okay. How are you??
And... who enjoys other people's pain? That's a bit...
@Luna: Hello! :)
What Silente said. Somewho who derives pleasure from the pain of others. Apparently, my friend is one.
. . .
@Silente: You need to think of him, to be wary of him. -_-
I'm sure Star'll manage. :P
Well, I'm not sure.
But meh. XD
#ChaseForbooknien
@Luna: Yeah, it's a bit . . . O_O I know.
#ChaseForBookNine
Star - I thought it was just me who was weird and didn't get it ;) I'm not the only one, then...
I'm confused.
I have a few questions.
1) Is this book 9? If not, is it just a few short stories or what exactly is it?
2) Is there a version without the American-sounding title?
3)(less of a question, more of a statement) I like the cover.
Thinking of him will just please him. As will talking of him. When he shows up I shall not crumble! I shall not let him hurt people if I can help it. And Luna Alastair enjoys others pain. He also enjoys causing it. In fact that's what he keeps doing. No matter how hard I try. But never mind. I will prevail in the end. Also I'm fine thank you.
This is some short stories comming out BEFORE book nine. Like malificent seven and end of the world. Also hey.
Silente - So don't talk about Alastair otherwise he'll torture me??? O_O Run away... And good :)
Wait. Do they contain Maleficent Seven and End of the World or are they new? If they're old stories I won't be buying it, but if they're new...
No he'll torture you if he sees you as defenseless and someone he can hurt me with.
They're new dragona
Alastair is just full of cheap tricks - he's practically harmless.
@Dragona: YOU'RE INSULTING THE TITLE????????????????????????????
YOU'RE DEAD TO ME
It's a short story collection, not book nine, no. :P Do you actually read the blog posts? XD
And the title is Armageddon-Outta-Here
ARMAGEDDON-OUTTA-HERE
Like I'm-a-getting-outta-here, but ARMAGGEDDON-OUTTA-HERE
IT'S SO ACE
and what's wrong with American-sounding things? Some of my favourite people and most of my favourite music is American, so, like, um. :O
@Silente: And if you don't think of a way to survive him
he'll break you
and that will suck.
#ChaseForBookNine
Yeah sure. Hopefully that's true.
I don't need to think of a way to survive him. I just need to outlast him. If I no longer entertain him..
You're kidding, right-left-diagonal-up-down-circular-curvy-mutipledirections-invisibledirections-nonexistentdirections (damn my friend), Dragona?
He almost killed me yesterday, don't know if you noticed. -_-
He actually scares me. :P
(He's so awesome though. I came into school today going HE'S SO AWESOME and my friend was like IF HE ALMOST KILLED YOU WHY DO YOU LIKE HIM and I'm like BECAUSE HE'S AWESOME)
#ChaseForBookNine
Why is he after Silente?
hi hi peoples
@Luna: He's after everyone.
He's a SADIST. He likes causing PAIN. D:
Silente, especially, because she thinks he won't break her. :P
#ChaseForBookNine
Star - what does right-left-diagonal-up-down-circular-curvy-mutipledirections-invisibledirections-nonexistentdirections mean?
Well I kind of skipped over it a little after seeing the cover. Maybe I missed something.
I'm not INSULTING the title, I just don't like the bad shortening of out of. It rather annoys me. Along with "s'up", etc.
And, is he after everyone?
I'm not kidding, no. Most of what he does concerns trying to get into your mind. Don't let him affect you and he won't do anything. Nothing at all. He attempted it on me but yes, it didn't work.
@Luna its stars thing. Instead of right she says a mouth full of direction
@Luna he's after me cause I refuse to be broken and I'm 'annoyingly cheerful'
*smiles* anyway moving on
*starts to cartwheel around*
hows everyone?
He's sort of after everyone. Since he's been watching for a while (stalker) he's decided the best way to break me is to hurt my friends in front of me..
Oh hey Chloe! I'm fine thanks you?
Silente - *chuckles to self*
And... good luck.
Hiya, Im good but tired
I need to revise my welsh for next week but I just cant be asked ..
*just decided to go back to being a robot, just because*
Just don't self destruct on me this time!
@Dragona: IT'S THE BEST TITLE EVER
*facepalm*
Hey Chloe! :)
@Luna: Yeah, what Silente said. My character starts saying 'left' rather than 'right' one day and look what it turns into. :P
Alastair, Dragona, is NOT practically harmless. :P
(Oh dear, I'm disagreeing with you a lot at the moment. It's not intentional. D:)
#ChaseForBookNine
(Lol, don't worry about it. If it's something I enjoy it's a good discussion)
*prefers this image*
Star - Aaahhh, I get it now :)
Amazing cover. Brilliant. incredible Extraordinary. Beautiful. Wow. There are no other words to describe this piece of art.
Amazing cover. Brilliant. incredible Extraordinary. Beautiful. Wow. There are no other words to describe this piece of art.
Hm I think this one might be even better.
FAKE YOUR DEATH MAKES ME WANT TO CRY
JUST LOOK AT ALL THAT PAIN
UGH
IAMSOSORRYBUTIHAVEFEELSTHATHURT.
There there Luci. There there.
@Mushroom: It's okay. D:
I empathise. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
@Star: Who is C? Sorry, I have a habit of being INCREDIBLY nosey. Feel free to slap me :)
And who is Mushroom?
Mushroom=luci I believe
C = one of stars friends
I AM MUSHROOM BECAUSE I ONCE USED THE NAME RENAE OSHIRO(?) AND STAR THOUGHT OSHIRO SOUNDED LIKE SOME SORT OF MUSHROOM
I THINK
I DON'T REMEMBER
Butholycrapfakeyourdeathisnotokay.
Oshiro does sound like a type of mushroom.
@Silente: Ahh, thanks :)
ive gotta go now
ive gotta go now
Bye then Chloe! Enjoy your Welsh!
Your welcome Luna!
It's a traditional Japaneses surname which means something along the lines of "castle".
*and so I sat and awaited the devils undeniable approach* *I wonder who he would go after this time*
Soz bored and slightly glittery. Glittery! Glittery is actually a word! Yup feeling glittery! *pulls glitter from her pockets*
*spins and throws glitter around*
@Silente: Why do you have glitter in your pockets?... I suppose it's as good a place as anywhere, but... btw not judging you :)
Because I love glitter! Its amazing and a bit like fairy dust so yeah, glitter, always!
What colour glitter?? And yeah, I know what you mean ;)
GLITTER IS AMAZNIG. O_O
#ChaseForBookNine
EVERY COLOUR!
*dances around joyously letting glitter fly out around her*
*swirls and twirls smiling at the way her silver hair shimmered in the moonlight*
Pancakes are nicer than glitter.
I AGREE
HUNTER WOULD DISAGREE
EZ WOULD AGREE. SHE FINDS GLITTER ANNOYING. IT GETS EVEYRWHERE AND IT'S A NIGHTMARE TO GET OUT. IT JAMS UP KEYBOARDS AND STUFF. IT'S SO TIRESOME.
#ChaseForBookNine
And reindeers are better than people
*smiles at the quote*
*omg its only 3days*
*wait three days?*
*omgomgomgomgomg!*
*dances and twirls laughing into the night and freeing the never ending glitter watching it fall around her-
Who are Hunter and Ez?
GLITTER?!
THEY THROW THE MATCHES DOWN INTO THE GLITTER, NOT A DRY EYE LEFT IN THE HOUSE
GO BOY, GO BOY, RUN FOR YOUR LIFE
GO BOY, GO BOY, RUN FOR YOUR LIFE
GO BOY, GO BOY, RUN FOR YOUR LIFE
WE'RE ALL FIGHTING GROWING OLLLLLLLLLD, WE'RE ALL FIGHTING GROWING OLDDDDDDDDD
IN THE HOPES OF
A FEW MINUTES MORE
@Luna: My characters.
Although they would object to the possessive in that sentence. :P
Hunter would describe them more as . . . demons who possess me and compel me to write down their story.
And obtain more pickaxes.
And stuff. :P
#ChaseForBookNine
@Star: You write? That's so awesome!
Star, if you have time there's a new part of my ME story.
Well, new-ish. You just haven't read it yet. ^^
@Luna: I can't really do it, but I do attempt it! :) Thanks!
Okay, Dragona. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
@Star: Very modest :)
Oh my god,
this looks like some pretty badass shiznit!!
I can't wait to read this as soon as it comes out,
I definitely know it'll be as epic as all your other brilliant works Mr. Landy
Star's writing is really awesome and unique! Trust me, I say it as both an author and as a friend. Even speaking critically, it's wonderful!:)
*hugs Mushroom* THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) :) :) :) :) :)
I'M HAPPY NOW
LOOK
BIG INVISIBLE SMILESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS :D
However, whatever wonderful people like you say, the fact remains that I can't really write. :P
Not like you. :) :) :)
*hugs*
(I mean, I can't write, you can, it's amazing, not 'I can't write like you'. Nobody can write exactly like anyone else, whether they can write or not, so it's a stupid statement._
@Luna: Wow, for once in my life I actually WAS being modest. O_O
Usually I'm just like "I'm so awesome, you lot can't even compare" and everyone else is like "You're so modest, Star!" and I'm like "IKR"
Or "IKRLDUDCCMIN". :P
#ChaseForBookNine
@Luci/Mushroom: I can imagine it is ;) And, I guess you write too...
*surrounded by creatives*
I'm back
@Luna: She's got a book PUBLISHED. O_O
And I have a proof copy.
It's awesome.
It's . . . *tilts head* *gives up on that sentence* *I can't describe things*
*or explain things*
*I mean seriously, when I try to explain things to people in lessons, they never understand me -_-* *if I'm not the only one to understand it, I generally call someone else over so they can explain instead, because my explainee generally looks more confused than when I started*
Wb, Zaf! :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Star your a little modest...and you don't just call yourself awesome! You randomly turned around to me when I came on one day and was like, oh I wanted to tell you you're awesome! Still here BTW just...not really talking..I feel my input I not yet needed :-)
@Star: Oh my god, I get it... IKRLDUDCCMIN!!!!!
@Silente: Of course I'm modest. It's just another cool trait in my amazing personality. :P
(See? MODEST.)
@Silente: Well, you ARE awesome. :) It needed saying.
And - okay. :/
#ChaseForBookNine
I understand you :-)
*nods*
Pepolz I have an important message for you all, YOU ARE AWESOME!
Wb zaf!
@Star: Nobody gets me either :) Added bonus of being weird.
Hi Star!!
@Luna: YAY! :) :) :)
SOMEONE UNDERSTANDS ME!
(Even as an abbreviation, it's so long.
*facepalm*)
#ChaseForBookNine
Looks like the coolest cover. Wow finally. Can't wait for the "wraparound cover" whatever that means... Is it like for the hardcover books, or like for a box-set type of thing...
Anyway, and after that it's the title for book 9! WOOOHHHHHOOOOO
@Luna: WE CAN BE UNUNDERSTANDABLE TOGETHER!
*attempts to dance off into the sunset* *due to being a bubble, just ends up kind of floating slowly into the sunset* *which is still pretty, I guess :P*
@Silente: Really? O_O
Are you sure you're feeling alright???
And - thanks! :) *hugs*
#ChaseForBookNine
OH YES
THE COVER
IT'S SO ACE :O
@Thrust: *shrugs helplessly*
#ChaseForBookNine
In fact guys to find out what you truly are go here
http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~geoffo/humour/flattery.html
It will say much of what I would say to you all :-)
Star, I have missed you so damn much.
... Do you mind if I call one of my characters your given name, by the way? It's a gorgeous name and I like to make my friends know they're appreciated by slipping them into my writing. :P
Book 9: Skulduggery Pleasant: Bye-Bye Feelings by Derek Landy
I watched Frozen today in chorus. We're singing Let It Go.
@Mushroom: :) :) :) I'd be honoured! :)
It is pretty, isn't it? :)
Holly
Idk. :P
I quite like my given name, really . . .
But Star is just ace, so. :P
And - :) *hugs*
You know, in Blogland, you make friends, and then they leave, and then you miss them, and you're sad, but then you meet more friends and it's kind of okay that old Blogland isn't there anymore, and then the awesomeness goes on. But even though you have a whole load more awesomeness to fill your life with, no one can ever, ever replace your old friends, because there's no one like them in the world and however hard you look, the only person you will find that can compare to them is them.
. . .
I should learn how to keep in touch with people effectively . . .
And - *hugs*
I don't really know what I can say here, because 'I miss you too' just doesn't really cut it, but it will have to do, I suppose.
@Zaf: Yeah, that's pretty much it. XD XD
#ChaseForBookNine
#ChaseForBookNine
THANK YOU, SILENTE
I'M CRYING
THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL. D:
#ChaseForBookNine
@Zaf: Ace. O_O
#ChaseForBookNine

Your welcome star :-)
@zaf omgicantwaitthreedaysanditsondvdhereandimjustlikeahhhhhhhhyeswaitingdaystimesoonsoonsoonitllhappensoonfrozenwillcomeoutinthreedays!
'Old Blogland' . . . it's such an odd phrase.
It can apply to about three different Bloglands for me, now.
And . . .
yeah.
#ChaseForBookNine
@Zaf: O_O
Good luck.
@Silente: YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!! :)
#ChaseForBookNine
THE show. That's a lot of pressure but you know what? Its the show CAN YOU DO THIS? Its the show YES YOU CAN!
ITS SO CLOSE STAR! IM HATE WAITING BUT IT'LL BE MINE SOON AND I'LL BE A VERY HAPPY CHAPPY!
*throws glitter around and sings let it go*
Well technically I was making an image of a blackcurrant from the Ribena adverts with dragon wings to make it look like the stupid dragons from How To Train Your Dragon to make a point, but yeah that's poofing.
@Silente: Or a very happy Silente. :P
YAAAAAAAAY!
@Dragona: :P Okay.
That sounds cool. :)
Did you succeed? :)
#ChaseForBookNine
OH

GOD!!!
THAT'S SUCH AN AWESOME COVERRRR!
@Dragona: I poofed too.
A VERY HAPPY SILENTE CHAPPY! YEYYYYYYY!
*throws glitter*
*cartwheels around*
*relaxes and let's herself be happy*
*smiles*
Wait, no.
@Jubi: I KNOW RIGHT-LEFT-DIAGONAL-UP-DOWN-CIRCULAR-CURVY-MULTIPLEDIRECTIONS-INVISVIBLEDIRECTIONS-NONEXISTENTDIRECTIONS! :O
#ChaseForBookNine
@Star: Do you say that out loud as well as on-line? Or is it just a typing thing?
@Luna: Real life.
*facepalm*
It's actually embarrassing now. :P
And, yeah . . . my sadist friend C is a real life friend, so . . . :P
#ChaseForBookNine
