Tom Percival has blessed us with another stunning cover for Armageddon Outta Here, and this time it's something extra-special — a wraparound masterpiece...
We're going to release this as a poster for the bookstores, and we're planning on making it available to you guys too — hopefully along with all the other posters. I'll keep you, ahem, posted...
Heheheheheheh.
Oh, and as for who exactly everyone IS on that cover... you'll just have to read the stories to find out.

And I'll stand in the background looking awesome!

((Star can we pause again? I gotta leave..))
((Or replace me with dragona, which ever! Bye guys!))
Blake you do punch Silente a lot
Star: Sure, Silente! :)
@Dragona: Um . . .
Idk? D:
Because Silente just went and I'm a bit of a pedant and although Hunter is perfectly fine going "well, let's just PRETEND I left a note", then how did we get in if we had you rather than Silente?
*facepalm*
Sorry . . . D:
I can easily start something else, though. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Star: OKAY SO I'm watching a YouTube video about A7X making their self-titled album and IT'S JUST SO ACE TO WATCH because they're just so passionate about what they do and when you hear them talking about it . . . you feel like your knowledge of these songs expands, and . . . yeah. And it's really cool to hear Matt talk about all the meanings because you can then kind of see in the songs what he saw in them and . . . yeah. And the guitar work, as well. I don't play guitar, so it's cool to hear about people discussing how impossible the solos are. The Rev wrote the guitar work on Brompton Cocktail, you know, and Syn and Zacky were saying they hate it when he writes stuff for them, because when a drummar writes guitar work he puts all these impossible notes in that a guitar player would never do, and how hard it is to actually try and play, but how it's actually a really good challenge and it's interesting to see the new way of doing things, kinda . . . and it's also really incredible to watch them actually making the music, because it's live, you know, and when Syn's playing his solo or Matt's doing the vocals you're just like O_O because it's just rather impossible to comprehend that that sound is coming out of a human being, and - yeah.
Rant over. :P
Anyway, I definitely want to watch more of these type of videos. :P))
#ChaseForBookNine
Update: I didn't die in class today :) we actually did something where we find a photo that thematically depicts our poem. I'll have to post my poem and my picture to my blog later, I'm proud of it!
Also, dance tryouts are tonight 0.0 I'm a little scared, but I'm sure I'll do well :))
Anyway, hope your afternoons are well!
Star: @Adra: YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!! :) :)
And - :) :) Good luck. :) :)
It's evening now for me, haha. XD
#ChaseForBookNine
Night then, Star
Yay!
Zaf I punch just about everybody a lot, but it's also fair to say I get punched a lot
Equivalent exchange, Blake? It's okay to hit people :)
Sometimes
You and punching are like me and dynamite
Excuse me if I disappear I'm pretending someone died.
Okay, I'm sorry. I can't be here if this is going to keep happening.
Zafira, stop cyberbullying. Never have I said anything, and from a psychological standpoint, it isn't right for you to take out all of your anger and things out on another person. It is hurtful, and extremely annoying, and I'm asking you to please stop.
I'm sure this will get hate, but whatever. I'm sick of this happening here.
*Vanishes*
*pops in*
*whispers* agreed ad.
*pops out*
Hmm? You actually know that word? Congrats. Nice to know you may feel how I felt.
*screams excitedly* My friend got her prom dress and its so pretty!!!
gtg bye!
Deathy? [hugs]
Rose was on...?
@Zaf: YAAAAAAAAY! :)
Fours, Rhydian! :(

#ChaseForBookNine
I know Star!!!! Its so exciting! She gets to go to prom, only seniors usually go and sometimes there are kids under the seniors who go if they're dating a senior but its usually seniors, the dance for the entire school is usually Homecoming.
I always think it’s scary how as humans, we have the ability to take a particular thing and put ourselves into such a standpoint or a mentality that we literally refuse to let ourselves take information or events in any way other than one.
That prejudice can be a positive one or a negative one, but it still stands that you’re wearing these, like, blinkers, and so you can only see in one particular way. And so you end up with all of these misconceptions, because how do you take off these blinkers, if you’re so full of the thing that you’re feeling that it will just feel either empty or overwhelming once you take them off. Like, how can you take off these blinders if you don’t know what you’re gonna find once you can see in every direction?
It’s almost like when you’ve been watching shitty horror movies, and it’s late at night and the curtains are shut. And you look at that window, and the macabre manner of the film has put your mind into a particular standpoint, and suddenly you feel this presence outside the window, like if you pull open the curtains you’ll find a crazy dead lady screaming at you, screaming at you, screaming at you. And the strength of that visualisation and that irrational fear emotion mean that you cannot go to open the curtains. So you just sit there in the corner, afraid to turn your back at watching the window and not expecting but fearing anyway because there’s a little bit of you that’s going “What if?” and the rest of you is just following suit and turning that ‘What if?’ to an ‘It could be,’ to a “Shittttt.”
And it’s not necessarily the film that scared you, and it’s certainly not the window, either - it’s the way in which your brain top-down processes information, so that motivation (effectively how you feel and your state of mind at the time) and expectations control your perception of the world. So if that horror-scene is in your head, your brain associates it with the things that you see.
Which leads to you sitting there watching the windows and not turning your back and waiting for the glass to shatter and the cold undead hands to wrap around your throat, the face screaming and crying and anger and screaming. Even though you KNOW it’s ridiculous and irrational and just go to the damn window and PROVE IT, but you don’t go, because ‘what if?’s grow into possibilities and possibilities grow into enough to affect your reality.
(Think The Weeping Angels. How many kids were too terrified to shut their eyes, let alone sleep, after “Blink” first aired in June 2007? Even the hardest of the kids didn’t sleep, at least where I was. I remember the boy who would brag about watching zombie apocalypse and 15-18 rated movies CRIED. But even if you’re a bit older now, you can still watch that episode and maybe you’re like ‘wtf was everybody so scared about? 0o”, but you still do get a bit of chills. If I lived in a house with statues in it, I don’t think I’d want to watch that Doctor Who episode.)
And that way in which the possibility grows, and your mind affects what you see... I think that can also be applied to perception of a LOT of other things. Books or genres or art or creatures or other human beings. When one particular feeling is allowed to fester, it can grow and consume and it acts as those blinkers I was talking about before, because it grows so that that’s what your mind is SEEING. And even if you’re looking for something different, even if you KNOW there’s more to it, you KNOW there’s not a dead person staring at you through the window, you can’t open the curtains anyway. You don’t know how to take off your blinkers.
TBC
#ChaseForBook9
People develop positive prejudices. If there’s a person who you aspire to, and that aspiration sometimes grows, and you begin to paint that person or book or genre or whatever you want to think about, whatever you’re looking up to, it gets painted in this weird colour. ALL of it. And that colour’s there, it’s there in everything that they do, but it gets to a point where you’re kind of becoming colourblind and every colour looks like that colour. Every action turns that colour.
And that’s not necessarily a bad thing. If you love a thing that much, that is great, love what you want to love, it rules, and it’s amazing that a feeling can DO that.
But sometimes you get cases, too, where the prejudice is negative. A person does something to upset you, or that irritates you, and sometimes you let the particular agitation that you feel fester and build inside of you, and THAT is where it gets messy.
Because that festering interior buildup changes the way that you perceive that thing or that person. And slowly those exaggerations and misconceptions mean that every time that person says or does something, your brain, looking through its dark jagged messy Quality Street wrapper of a mindset, makes it FEEL bad. And there’s nothing you can DO about that, everything about it just makes you UGH and every UGH is another layer of exaggeration and misconception, it’s another scene from a horror movie, or a reinforcement on your blinkers.
And that’s not your fault. Because you’re human. Your human brain processes so that what’s in your head affects what you perceive.
But it is messy. And it’s difficult, and maybe you don’t want to be there, in that dark messy place with the dark messy filter, but how do you get out?
And I think that maybe time helps. Hands up who is still scared, sitting here now, that the Weeping Angels are going to get you if you shut your eyes? With time, you get a lot of new expectations and motivations and all of the things in your head change, your filter changes, and if you’re willing to let it, I think that that negative buildup subsides, and you’re able to see more clearly because you’ve been seeing a lot of other things.
And maybe a hang in/hold on mentality, then... Maybe that has value?
I don’t know.
But I do know that physically repeating the things that you see through your altered perception, that maintenance rehearsal keeps the falsehoods and exaggerations and misconceptions all fresh, so that the buildup can continue to feed and grow, feed and grow, feed and grow. You keep kicking up the dust, it keeps becoming a cloud again. Tread lightly, and the dust will only shift a little.
These are my thoughts.
#ChaseForBook9
Never mind....
Tata
I'm so sorry, Deathy.
I wish I could help fix things, but I've tried, and tbh the most effective thing I did was leave... Or sort-of-kind-of-mostly leave, I guess.
If you ever need to reach me, you have my email. I may not be able to fix things, but I can listen, at least. [hugs]
Don't you dare start that, Rose. You know very well I'll get a plane ticket with Ari down to Australia. And you do not want Ari after you, its like having Nic after you.
@Zaf: !! :)
Me and B and C have pretty much decided we're not going to prom though, haha. XD
@Death: :( :( :( :( :( Hang in there . . . life has ups and downs, and . . . it'll swerve up again soon. :) *hugs*
And - I'm sorry . . . I wish I could help. :)
*scrolling up to read Taia's comments now, be replying to that in a second :)*
#ChaseForBookNine
Oh. Well, bye then.
That was a pretty brilliant speech, Taia...
Zaf, I'm not in Aus. I'm in Germany, Italy tomorrow.
*Just... Hugs*
*Leaves. Curses Lunaria who caused this problem. Wishes she was home. Continues crying*
Woah. O_O
Woah.
Woah.
Woah.
Woah.
. . .
I don't even know what I can even say to that.
It needs nothing adding to it.
It's not even something you store up in your head so it can be added to the pile of things you know and you can pile yourself off it, because it's already fully built. Instead of having a few bricks, I've just been given and entire WALL and it's so cool. :)
Thank you, Taia.
And - I really hope other people listened to that in the way that I did and take it into account. *nods*
You're pretty damn incredible. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
@Death: :( . . .
You can email me as well, if you want, you know . . . and like Lantern said, I can't promise to fix things, but I can listen and state my pathetic thoughts on it. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
And also, I'm going on holiday from tomorrow until Sunday so if I'm not online much, that'll be whyyyyyy.
#ChaseForBookNine
Hi. I know I haven't been on, but does anyone have Aretha's email?
[hugs]
[offers a handkerchief]
[waves goodbye]
Yes. Why do you need it?
*nods a ditto to Lantern's comment*
#ChaseForBookNine
I think I found a solution, you know with the little argument going on.
@Jayden: You do? O_O
Woah.
We've been trying for . . . um . . . three-quatres of a year . . . ? and we have nothing, so. XD
You can suggest it here, but Ari's at pwachie@gmail.com :)
#ChaseForBookNine
(Sorry. Had to go deal with dress-y things. Bah. :P)
Death! D:
*hugs*
Me and my ranting meant that I missed you.
*hugs*
*hugshugshugs*
I feel like I don't have time to write things out properly, because I figure you're either gone, or about to go, and if the latter then I don't want to miss you altogether, because I care.
But if I just reiterate what the others have said, because I'll always be willing to offer support if you need it.
You're fantastic. Good luck. :)
#ChaseForBook9
*huggles Fabi*
Thank you. :)
(I hope you're doing okay, by the way. I hope you're finding happy. Because you're important. And, yes.)
*hugs Star* Thank you. Wow.
That kind of built up through the whole thing with my friend who I called V and my other friends crisis thing. Which seems to be settling now that they totally outcast her, and aside from one or two who are still feeding it, I think they're settling and letting her back in, kind of. Which is good progress to see. :) But my point is that I had time to build that wall. It wasn't a spontaneous thing. (Except the analogies, they just happen when I don't REALLY know how to explain things. :P)
I'm glad you got something/s from it, though. *hugs* Thank you. :)
#ChaseForBook9
And: @Star: Ooh! Have fun! :)
@Jayden: Sounds like that could be promising? :)
*not entirely sure if anybody is still around, but, I'll probably be hanging for a bit. :)*
#ChaseForBook9
Fuck it. I just spoiled the books for Blake. Fuck everything. He looked up the 2 most important spoilers ever, that skul was lord vile and that valkyrie was darquesse. Fuck everything.
[hugs Taia]
Hello everyone!
...people?
Hello Amy
@Chi: :/
That sucks. :(
But- I guess that the good in books is not always the big dramatic reveals, the things that might get spoiled, alone, because at least to me, I feel like maybe those big things aren't as important as how those things make the characters act and think and feel.
Like, I know that *** dies in LSODM, that was spoiled, but I do not know how that happens, or why, or how that makes the other characters think and feel and act. I don't know the effects of that event.
And even though I will know while I'm reading, I'll be expecting it and maybe looking out for / kind of dread-anticipating it... I don't really know anything about it.
And sometimes it's not what you do, but how you think and feel about that.
So maybe Blake knows those two things, but he doesn't know the consequences, or how other characters feel about it, or how those particular people act or acted, or why.
So maybe spoilers don't spoil entirely? They just get rid of a punch, and maybe lower the effect of the build-up to that punch drama reveal? They don't necessarily negate the entire book series, right?
Like... Pretty much everybody knows that Darth Vader was/is Annikin. But people still watch Star Wars, anyway.
Y'know?
:)

Hello Chione! Hello Taia!
Hey guys. Not here just wanted to pop on and say:
Where every you are,
Whatever you do,
Blogland will be here to comfort you.
So have a good day, morning or night.
And don't let depression bite.
Because in this world of fear and pain,
Our resistance may begin to wane.
But no matter what
Don't you fear
Because someone out there will be ready to fill you with cheer.
Goodnight, morning and day to all. See you all some time real soon :-)
*hugs Fabi back* :)
Also, Hi Chione! :)
Hey, Amethyst! :)
mbd/msd
#ChaseForBook9
So, what's going on?
*hugs Tempest*
Maybe you're not always cool with hugs, but I don't care because you're wonderful, and sometimes you just have to hug wonderful things, you know?
:):):)
#ChaseForBook9
Nice poem, SIlente! :D
@Taia: :) :) :) :) Yeah.
Well, I'm glad that's mostly resolved. :) :) *hugs*
((Sorry, I poofed a bit D:))
@Chi: What Taia said, and also . . .
And also, you know - sometimes spoilers are good. I can't believe I'm saying this because I HATE spoilers, but Annika told me that at least one major character would die at the Osmosis wedding, and the thing is, I have been put under so much more emotional torture from knowing that now than I would have otherwise, and it's horrible for me to know that it is coming and to watch how people are acting and to know how much they will regret it . . . so even though you lose out on emotional shocks, you also gain. :) Plus, one thing I've really noticed with the roleplay if that when you have time to stop and think in between, it really makes you dwell on emotional trauma, and it's really torturous. I will sit there in lessons at school sometimes and start crying because of the roleplay - I did it today actually, over Photo, and I did it over Niccolò the other day, and yeah - and when you're reading a book, you're totally absorbed, so one moment slides into the next, but if you can stop and think and dwell - it's torture. D:
So him knowing that might make it worse, in a way. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Hey Star!
Hey Amethyst! :)
Msd. It's getting later and stuffs. :P
#ChaseForBookNine
Oh...okay!
@Star: :):):) Yeah, me too. Thanks:) *hugs back*
And- no worries. :)
*rolls smiles at ever'one*
How are you all doing?
wbd/msd
#ChaseForBook9
I'm doing good, Taia. :)
IT'S THE HOLIDAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!
so much revision though
ugh
I CAN'T EVEN REVISE ANYWAY SO -
#ChaseForBookNine
*Like, I'm bad at revision. XD
#ChaseForBookNine
I'm fine! I had three tests today and I'm finally done! :D
@Amethyst: YAAAAAY! :)
#ChaseForBookNine
I have emailed her. I hope it will help you guys out.
@Jayden: Thank you. :) :) :) I'm grateful. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Aww.. My Fiancé and I had a very touching emotional moment there :3
*Poof*
Ello everyone, Blake is back
@Chi: :)
#ChaseForBookNine
And my amazing timing...
Hey Jayden!
Blake the pepper shaker... so, we meet again...
@Blake: Yeahhh, you're cool like that. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Pepper sh-
Y'know what?
I don't even care
You hurt my eeeyyyyyeeesss!!! *points to eyes*
I hope so as well, Jayden, though I'll believe it when I see it...
@Star: :):):) Yeah, me too. Thanks:) *hugs back*
((Pavement's "We'll Dance" is playing and "But no one will dance with us, in this zany town" and zany = Zayn-y and I just MARA. :)
I mean, I love this song ANYWAY, but :):):):):), y'know?))
@Star: Good. :) YES. :) !!! :)
BUT my exams begin the week after I get back from holiday, I believe, and I have not done very much revision yet, so I do have to do that. O.O / :P
And- Find a way of revision that works for you?
I like taking A3 paper and just scribbling notes with felt pens or markers because if I write it big then it's bigger in my head.
I tend to write with little quirks that make it more interesting, kind of. Whether it's a random little doodle, or writing fishin' and fusin' as opposed to fission and fusion.
So maybe just do something that keeps plenty of your brain active, rather than slaving over your class notes like UGH?
I find past paper questions most helpful, but that's just me. *shrugs* Good luck, anyways. :)
@Amethyst: Awesome! Did they go alright? :)
#ChaseForBook9
Yup! ...well, at least I THINK so...
We BOTH have amazing timing. That's another reason why we're perfect for each other *hugs him tightly*
...have any of you guys gotten your wisdom teeth taken out? I have to get mine out in few days... :(
@Taia: :) :) :)
Mara is amazing, isn't she? :)
I miss her . . . :/
@Taia: And - that's a really good idea. :) Fishin' and fusin'. :)
I try and do that sometimes, find cool ways of remembering things . . . of course, me and C have our things with the halidides ("Hali died, and then her bro died, and then Chlo died, and then Flo died, and then I died! :O") and stuff like that, but yeah. XD
Plus my biology teacher and his ways of teaching us, and you know, osmosis being like the London riots and all the punks going to the side of London with the most JC Stores because there are more to ransack over there. :P
Ah.
Sidetracked, now. :P
But anyway, thanks. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
(*"if I write it bigger then it's bigger in my head" was supposed to have a :P included. :P) ^^
@Chi: C:
Hello, Blake! :)
@Jayden: Thanks for your input/effort? *waves* :)
@Amethyst: Yay! That's always a good sign. :)
#ChaseForBook9
@Amethyst: No, sorry . . . :(
Good luck. :) I'm sure it'll be fine . . . :)
#ChaseForBookNine
I could email you guys if you would like, I just want it to well surprise her. If Aretha will agree.
*nods at Jayden* I'd like to know what's going on, but it's your decision. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
...*whispers* What happened?
(Ari is actually amazing you know.
Like seriously.)
#ChaseForBookNine
Leave me your emails, I will do a mass email to all those who want.
starinkbright@gmail.com
#ChaseForBookNine
@Amethyst: I haven't - sorry. :/
@Star: Yeah. :) / :( / :)
"Hali died, and then her bro died, and then Chlo died, and then Flo died, and then I died! :O" HOLY CATS THAT IS AMAZING. xD !!!
And- when we were taught osmosis, it was far less interesting. :P
But, yeah. :)
#ChaseForBook9
What's going on?
@Jayden: You can find me at andweturnedontheradio@yahoo.co.uk (I think. :P)
I check not very regularly, but I do try. :P
#ChaseForBOok9
@Taia: YEAH MY BIOLOGY TEACHER IS THE BEST. :)
And - I know. :) :) :) XD C thinks it up, really. :P I just laugh along. XD
@Amethyst: In which context are you speaking? :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Like for the emails and stuff...
I've had mine out, Amythest.
My email is on my profile.
Hello Fabi. Does it hurt to take them out? I'm really nervous about it...
Mine didn't hurt it was sorr like...not stabbing pain
Oh...okay...
@Amethyst: Jayden apparently has a solution to our little massive problem we've had for three quarters of a year . . . :P
It'll be so ace if it works. :) :)
#ChaseForBookNine
...what problem?
Well, they usually give you anesthesia, so you don't know when they're actually being taken out, and pain meds and ice to numb it, so it doesn't actually hurt that much, you just feel sort of out of it, and won't want to do anything. And then sometimes your face swells up and looks all square-ish, and that hurts in the way a tense muscle hurts, where it sort of aches rather than a sharp pain. Again, though, you can ice it and/or heat it, depending on how much time has passed. And trying to work the range of motion back hurts, but it also helps, so...
And then the area with the stitches will be sensitive, and you'll want to keep hard food away from there.
But yeah, they try to make it not hurt so much.
@Amethyst: Oh, you know. Zaf has a problem with Adra. Loads of people keep getting hurt over it and it's really painful for everyone so . . .
#ChaseForBookNine
@Fabi: Okay. Thanks.
@Star: Oh.
I've had a shit day.
I've done nothing but cry.
I am still crying.
Fuck my life.
:'(
Oh, Em . . . :( *hugs*
I really hope things improve for you soon . . .
#ChaseForBookNine
Hello Emerald. *hugs* I'm sorry your day's not going well... Hope it gets better soon!
@Amethyst Also, if you take a scoop of ice cream in a cup and pour milk over it, then mix it together with a fork, you get a good milkshake-ish thing, and the ice cream also lasts longer. It's better to get back to solid food as soon as you can, though, which won't be the first day, but still.
[hugs Em]
@Fabi: Thanks :)
Bye guys! I have to go now! See you guys later!
Fours, Amethyst! :(
Msd.
#ChaseForBookNine
Bye Amethyst.
I should probably go as well...
*surprise hugs Zaf* Aww Zaffy, what's the world done to you now?
I was told by a psychologist that all arguments on the Internet eventually escalate until Hitler is brought in. Thanks, Hunter!
Oh, Dragona, I see you like Mass Effect. Let me find my ultrashort ME fic.
Jayden, don't know what you're trying to email me but no viruses, ok?: tiablackbones@gmail.com
Hey guys, RP with me. I have to stay awake.
*hugs Em*
I'm really sorry to hear that. It sucks when things suck. :(
But there are plenty of other days.
And maybe you're in a field of rough days at the moment, but there are good days out there, and you'll get to them. I hope that they come quick. *hugs* Good luck, Emerald. :)
#ChaseForBook9
Sorry Chi, I have to try NOT to stay awake too long. :P
And I suck at RPing, anyhow. :P
*offers a hug*
Sleep is good for you, but speaking from experience my advice to keep up is headphones + music. Hopefully there are RP-able folks around for you now or soon, though? :)
wbd/msd-er
#ChaseForBook9
Taia, I HAVE to stay up. Blake and I have a bet who can stay up the longest. He's 5 hours behind me which is kinda cheating but I get to see him in a dress if I win so :P
*hugs Em*
@Chione: That is absolutely a legit reason. xD
Good luck. x3
I'm gonna drop out, now.
*hugs all who're still around either in the ghost or in the talk or in the distant*
You all are amazing, and I hope that you are enjoying life at least a little (if not a lot) each day, and if you're not then I hope the current phase passes easily.
:)
Bye!
#ChaseForBook9
Chi I'll rp...sorry was doing the annual organizd music for Holy Week
Chi, do it by time like if you stay up til 2am your time he'll have to stay up kater his time. Its same hour
Yay Zaffy, thank you. We're doing that now.
Hey guys! :D
I have emailed those who wanted.
Hey amy
Hey Chione! I just read about your bet! Good luck!
Still coughing
...are you okay?
Thank you ^.^ and I hope you get better Zaffy.
Nope! I got this lovely cough and my mom even wont let me go to choir
Oh. That's sad...Hope you get better! :D *hugs*
hello.
Hey Snow!
Chio just told me to tell everyone that her internet is being dumb and she can't get back on, sorry about that v.v
Oh...okay...
Hey Blake...pepper shaker...
How are you?
Confused, when did I become a pepper shaker?
...well...
Silente= salt shaker
Zafira= sugar shaker
You= pepper shaker
I think it happened during hallucinations...and I'm not cured yet... HOW AM I GOING TO GET BETTER?!?
how am i?
i don't know anymore. I have way too much homework because i was sick last week and i am now behind. my gran is in hospitals and she apparently has only days left. so i can't do my homework because i'm in with her. and i can't tell my friends because i dont want them to worry and i have been holding this back but i need to get it out and....
i have my own issues as well atm...
i'm pushing people irl away because thats what i do when i'm upset... and when i push, they aren't fighting back and.....
*sighs*
ignore this. idk.
Oh...I hope things get better for you, Snow. *hugs*
i g2g, school is calling.
Slam your head on a table Stalky, it works for me! :)
Can I borrow a wine bottle thats empty Trip? I wanna slam my head in it.
Bye Snow!
Hey Trip! Hm...well, I have no other choices now!
*sees table and slams head on it*
...hm...I wonder if that worked. How am I suppose to know if that worked?
That's awful Snow. It really isn't nice is it? My grandad was in the hospice for a very long time. I can only wish you my deepest sympathies, because if I say anything else it sounds insincere.
...that's not a good idea, Zafira...maybe a pillow might be better...
Is Zaf a salt shaker?
*looks at Zaf* ...nope! She's a potato now!
Well, it kinda worked!
And no Zaf, although I find tables can be very good substitutes!
...how do you know I didn't get worse?
*hits head on table*
Can Nic be real for a few seconds to heal me from this blasted sickness? I've coughed myself silly....ugh I have no voice...*hits head harder*
Because the potato is Festovo's chosen vegetable. And if the one true god *sniggers* says potatoes are better than everything else, then you are a little better.
LOGIC!
Oh! I learned about the immune system this week! Sickness is how your body tells you it's fighting off the pathogens that have infiltrated you!
I sense that sickness is not the main reason for your unhappiness.
hm... *bangs head on table and looks at Zaf again*
...interesting...now you are a mini giraffe!
Oooh! Stop on that one, it's almost a puppy sized elephant!
Actually, she's morphing into a llama...
STOP THIS MADNESS.
No I'm morphing into Niccolò Croatoan. Don't you see the leather coat I knicker off Alastair? (Shush. Alastair/Nic be nice I'm messing around)
Not you Silente, that's awesome. Maybe a professional, instead of an unhinged barkeep may be a better at helping you solve your problems though. No, Zaf.
*facepalm* I'm still not better...or, maybe I am because I know I am hallucinating but usually people don't. Or maybe I am hallucinating that I am hallucinating...or maybe everything is normal and Zaf is actually a llama and Silente is actually a salt shaker and Blake is a pepper shaker...
I bet I could do an impression of Nic! I think I could do it. I really could! I'd probably last until Alice in Wonderland came but it'd be worth it
Give it a try!
Amethyst if Ari or Alice in Wonderland comes on you're reviving me....I also probably one day should like ask Ari permission....
Hey guys sorry I'm back, the page wouldn't load for ages.
...I'll try, though with me hallucinating and stuff I'm not sure if you should count on me...
Hey Chione! Welcome back!
K after Jeopardy! i'l try....I'll go on my tablet and switch my profile
You don't like me, and I've tried my utmost to stay out of scolding you for being an immature buffoon these past couple of months, but really it's because I've found your sheer idiocy and lack of thought entertaining. I've often greatly enjoyed reading horribly biased comments that were so entertainingly stupid that I could avoid getting involved. But that was because you weren't really hurting anyone. Well, not noticeably, and maybe my view is a little spiked, due to my social resilience, but still. Em has been strong enough to withstand your attacks, and Adra wasn't there to witness them, but just as she was returning to the main area, you instantly start attacking her over some perceived slight. I never got involved previously because I found it funny, but today it was just sad. The things you have said today are genuinely depressing, that Adra turned us against you, that she's "the spawn of the devil".
I only know one person who I would happily describe as that, and it certainly isn't Adra.
And that's all I have to say about that.
I ded to spellcheck for helping me vent my pent up rage at a "selfish witch".
Hey Chione! How're ye?
I'm great Trip, and you?
Soon...it will soon be over...I think...
It'll NEVER be over, and I'd happily bet my soul and all my intellectual property on it.
I'm fine thank you. And Stalky? I never asked you.
Heh, we've really taken off the kid gloves haven't we?
...well, I heard Jayden had an idea or something so it MIGHT be over. Everyone's hoping.
I'm fine :) SPRING BREAK IS ALMOST HERE AND I'LL FINALLY CATCH UP ON SLEEP!
Trip- just fuck off. Now I'm pissed I had Em at me Ari at me Niccolò emailing me and that Jayden person. Just. Fuck. Off. I really and honestly don't care what you think of me, you're 12 I'm 16 I know what I'm talking about, and honest to god what you just said is pathetic. Em and Ari say I should put the past behind me, mmm I seem to have no desire now.
Well, Jayden may soon own my soul and all my intellectual property.
I'm 16, and I don't think that what Trip said is pathetic!
Ehat the hell did Jayden say?!
Oh shit. *backs into the shadows*
I may be being counter-productive, behind the times and a little detrimental to the overall cause, but honestly by now, I don't expect happily ever after, at best I'm hoping for a happy middle.
And what was pathetic, the size, the language or the argument, because unlike some I'm open to quite a lot of criticism.
And because you were four when I was born you suddenly become an all knowing guru to me? The way you've acted towards me in the past has been comparable to a seven year old.
I think everyone just wants the fighting/feud or whatever it's called to stop...
I bet that anyone who could end this could have my soul and all my IP.
You know, there's this song Mara did a while ago, based off a Tich song. She deleted it, which is sad. It was good. But anyway, I still remember a good deal of it, and it was coming back into my head, and I'm gonna try to find the original Tich version at least, so I can post the lyrics, because it really fits right now...
Actually I'm more mature. I really don't care anymore Trip, you said what you believe and thats cool but you're wrong, and I'm ending it there. I'm not feeding into your argument, you differ in opinion.
I do, but I also don't want to be quiet while Zaf does what is effectively the same as kicking peaceful protesters because you want them to fight back! This all started for no reason, and grew for no reason, and it's destroying us, FOR NO BLOODY REASON!
Sorry, I think I'm just about finished.
If you can find the stop button, Amethyst, be my guest. I wish it was that easy...
*presses STOP button*
there...hope that works!
Well Zaf, that's certainly a first. But I'm glad you've decided to act your age again. Maybe some day, we can peacefully coexist. Although really, that's up to you.
[Nods]
I don't want the solution to be "everyone-Zaf-disagrees-with-is-forced-off-the-blog-in-tears-or-gets-scared-and-deletes-their-comments-and-then-leaves-the-blog-in-tears." Because that seems to be what happens a lot, unfortunately. Because only one side is actually willing to stop. What kind of a resolution is that?
What if they changed their names and came on as a new person? But we just didn't know that? And they won't have the history with Zaf or anything?
I can stop if you want, Amethyst. I can leave the blog right now, and maybe this time I'll have the strength to stay away more than a month.
I can do that.
I agree. Running away worked, but I still don't like it. We used to apologise and try and make it right after saying what we thought, but that's what I meant by the kid gloves.
NO. STAY.
If people hate me okay cool, I have people sometimes DM me you are so cool for beingin LSODM or omg you were with Ravel how could you?!
No, I've far too much history in this name, this picture. It has more sentimental value than anything else. And anyway, it's still just running away.
That's what I figured... It's not easy leaving everything behind...
I miss Adra and Mara. It really annoys me that they won't make up, it is really childish that because of their fight that one person gets to stay and one has to leave. We lose a friend because of it. That's what annoys us Zafira. We lost Adra because of this stupid fight of yours. Yes she still comes on, but only for a few minutes then you come back an start being really cruel to her even though she said nothing to you.
