The next few weeks and months are going to be choc-full of announcements and reveals. In a matter of DAYS, for example, you'll be finding out more about this "270914" thing, and after that you'll be getting all kinds of juicy goodness. But TODAY, my Minions, is the day I announce something that has been in my head for YEARS.
I am proud, excited and absolutely delighted to announce that a special, exclusive gathering will take place in London on publication day, August 28th. I give you...
The Requiem Ball.
This is an invitation only get-together — a party, if you will — with 120 places up for grabs in very special competitions for Ireland and UK readers. You'll get the details of these competitions and other ways to nab yourself an invitation over the next few weeks, so keep an eye on this blog.
But you know I'd never leave the rest of you out of the action COMPLETELY, so we're going to have 250 party packs, jammed full of goodies, ready to send to you so that you can throw your own simultaneous Requiem Ball Parties at home. There'll be loads of stuff to download, whichever far-off country you're in, be it Ame-rica (am I pronouncing that right?) or Burkina Faso (yes, we notice EVERYTHING).
The Requiem Ball is basically my thank you to all of my Minions, for creating such a fun, creative, and frankly down-right crazy community around these books. I want to bring everyone together for one almighty celebration for the final book, and it's going to be EPIC.

Soph - well I still agree with Draggie *nods*)
OH MY GOSH
IT MAKES SENSE NOW
THAT IS SO SIMPLE
ALL I NEEDED WAS FOR SOMEONE TO ACTUALLY TEACH ME IT INSTEAD OF JUST EXPECTING THE KNOWLEDGE TO MAGICALLY BE IN MY HEAD SOMEHOW!!!
WHY DO I EVEN BOTHER GIVING UP MY LUNCHTIMES TO /NOT/ BE TAUGHT?
I CAN DO EXACTLY THE SAME WORK WITH /EXACTLY THE SAME AMOUNT OF EXPLANATION/ AT HOME!
(Star - I am not doing it for them. Not at all. I am not doing it to protect them to make myself feel better because I don't.
I do not torture because I couldn't bring myself to do it. Because I don't think I could be physically or mentally capable to do it. Nothing to do with the victim.)
FUCKSSAKE
IN RELATION TO CHOOSING MY A LEVELS, IT WOULD RATHER BE USEFUL TO KNOW HOW WELL I CAN COPE WITH EXTRA HIGH-LEVEL MATHS, BUT THE THING IS, I'M JUST LIKE "Well, I never understand it, but that's because I'm never TAUGHT" AND AS FOR HOW WELL I WOULD COPE IF I /WAS/, WELL, WE'LL NEVER FIND OUT, WILL WE? WHICH IS REAL HELPFUL, ISN'T IT?

*pulls on Grand Mage Zafira Keiras The Great And All Powerful's hair*
Zaf, we have some awesome times on skype annoying the SHIT out of Em. I love you girl, and my Blogland experience would not be the same without you. I hope to see you some day, fellow Ameriminion *salutes*
Mating Cicadas.
@Sophia: And why wouldn't you be capable?
(Star... Take a deep breath... In... And out...)
@Inky: I'm fine.
Or would be
y'know
if I was actually taught how to do stuff.
-_-
(Hey death how art thou ?)
(Star - I doubt my mind would be able to take it.)
(*hugs inks*
*offers Star a hug*
*offers Sil a high five* (because you only hug certain people)
*offers soph a high five too* (because you don't hug many people)
(Everytime I feel like crap in the morning, I think of this song from primary
Wake up wake up
Give yourself a shake up
Get your body moving
Reach up jump up
Everybody thumbs up
It's a beautiful dayyy
Get your feet dancing to the beat
It's a wonderful dayyy)
(*huggles Gar* I like our huggles)
(I'm afraid I must refuse the high five. I am against physical contact in nearly all its forms. I only hug Silente due to exceptional circumstances.)
@Sophia: And why couldn't your mind take it?
@Inky: We used to sing that one!!! :)
*hugs Garr* :)
I have quite an impressively-coloured bruise on my knee from it banging against the harness-thing on the rollercoaster. :)
(Really! Omg, memory lane!)
(Did you enjoy Star? )
(i like our huggles too Inks)
(No probs Soph)
(*hugs star*)
@Inky: Enjoy what?
@Garr: :)
MSD
(The rollercoaster a and such)
@Inky: It was okay.
I didn't go much.
And I was happier than if I had gone on.
And I haev a lack of emotional reaction to rollercoasters.
So that was meh.
But it was okay. :)
(Ok star at least you didn't hate it *huggles*)
(No probs Star, my friends get hugs if they want them) :)
(I am constantly tired
Maybe I have an iron deficiency -_-)
(it has gone quiet)
*tumbleweed rolls past*
(Hey Sil, how art thou?)
(im good. Tad bored. You?)
(I am okay ^^ a bit tired, but good)
(It seems I disappeared briefly.)
(Welcomes Soph ^^)
(Thank you Chloe. How are you?)
(In okay ^^
You?)
(Depressed, but suspiciously calm. It is disturbing. I am listening to music.)
(Ohohoh what are you listening to?)
(Avril Lavigne. Dragona is hating it. I like it somewhat.)
(Oooh which songs Soph??)
(Keep Holding On has arrived on my playlist. So that.)
(I like Avril lavigne ^_^)
(I like keep holding on.
I like Avril in general.
I wish you were here is one of my fav's.
And complicated.
And smile.
And sk8r boi)
(Me too, actually.)
(I like the best damn thing)
(I have only heard Keep Holding On from that list, Silente.)
(I have only heard Keep Holding On from that list, Silente.)
(Hmm. You should listen to the ones on that list Soph. They're some of my fav's..
As well as about fifty others.
Rock and roll..
What the hell..)
(Hey Xan)
(I will have a look for them.)
(I will have a look for them.)
(Hey Xan, how art thou?)
(I'm a mind reader *grins*)
Erica: *winks at Xan while underwater and twists, swimming away from him in a flurry of bubbles*
Erica: *slows down slightly, teasing him*
(I am revising so I could be better)
Erica: *laughs, bubbles escaping her mouth, and twists, trying to grab his hand*
*starts swimming up for air, dragging him along*
(I will be back soon.)
(I'm revising chemistry. Got tests this week to determine if I stay on te course or not)
Erica: *gasps when they surface then laughs, splashing water at Xan*
Erica: It is *smiles*
Erica: *kisses him back and grins batting her eyelids* Am I?
Erica: I try. *kisses him quickly, lightly, before diving back under*
(And this would be the moment where I would push one of you underwater... Heh...)
(*hugs Deathy* *tightly* *very tightly*)
(*hugs soph* Welcome back. Where did we get with Claire and Sil?)
Erica: *swims faster*
(*hugs Silente back* They had escaped and were walking back to the house.)
(*huggles death* how art thou?)
(Right okay.)
Yes, makeup. Only for you like and maybe only a little but you'll need it..
That reminds me, when do we start?
Erica: *kisses him under the water, grinning*
Claire: Yes. I already own some for undercover operations.
Well... Tomorrow.
Tomorrow?? That's quick! So what was your plan for if I said NO?
Erica: *swims up with him, gulping down air when they surface and grinning*
Claire: Go by myself.
(I will be back soon.)
(Okay Soph)
Despite having already signed up with a sister?
Erica: I agree
Erica: *grins and dives back under*
Claire: Deaths happen spontaneously sometimes.
Gee that's a great way to thing
**think
I DON'T KNOW HOW TO WORK OUT WHETHER THINGS ARE EXCLUDED FROM FUNCTIONS OR NOT
NO ONE EVER TOLD ME
HONESTLY
Erica: *loops her arms behind his neck and kisses him passionately back*
(Hi Star... I don't know either Soz
PUSHING LITTLe CHILDREN WITH THEIR FULLY AUTOMATICS
THEY LIKE TO PUSH THE WEAK AROUND!!!!)
Claire: It is. I am good at acting. It'd be no problem.
@Inky: That song's great. O_O
Well, you don't have to.
Erica: *a few bubble escape her mouth as she smiles back, still kissing*
(I loe system of the down XD)
Erica: *kisses until her lungs are burning then drags him up and gulps down air, breathing heavily, grinning*
Claire: I'm acting now. *shrugs*
You are? Pretending not to loathe me for my awesomeness by any chance? *grins*
Erica: It does..
I just like a few songs by them.
(I love chic n stu)
Claire: Pretending not to be cold and calculating. I have got so used to acting I no longer know what I am like.
( I hereby dedicate this page to Eddy Izzard XD)
*can't state my opinion on things unless I have a certain level of familiarity with them :P*
Ah. That happens.
Erica: Hmm..depends, what would 'something else' be?
(brb food)
Claire: *lowers her t-shirt so Silente can see her leather armour* This is all I am now. Anything else is just an act.
Hmm. You should relax a bit...come on. Let's get these bags dropped off.
Erica: *grins*
*swims to the edge of the pool*
Claire: *nods* Lets. But relaxing would just be acting. Everything I do whilst not in my armour and helmet is an act.
(I better go now, I have to go to town. Speak laters my darlings ^^)
Right. Well maybe you can change that one day..
Erica: That's for me to know..
Erica: *laughs and climbs out of the pool*
Claire: I'm fine. *smiles* *they start to near the house*
Sure you are.
Erica: No idea in the slightest *grins*
Erica: Hmm..lets look around!
Claire: I am. *walks to the door and takes the key from her pocket, unlocking it* *opens the door and steps inside the house, putting the bags on the floor*
Right. Sure. Come on.
*grabs her arm, leading her back out the door*
Erica: Hmm..which is your favorite?
Where are we going?
*Claire:
Anywhere. Where have you never been before?
Erica: Lead the way..
Claire: What do you mean?
I mean what country have you never been to before?
Erica: *smiles* Nervous hun?
Erica: *walks in, pulling him after her, smiling devilishly*
Claire: Iceland?
Iceland it is then.
*opens a portal to Iceland and tugs Claire through behind her*
Claire: *looks around the piles of rock and snow* And this is why I've never been to Iceland.
Oh please. Stop complaining. I came to the wrong part.
*makes a new portal, one that opens at the top of a hill with a waterfall and lake*
*smiles* Better.
Erica: *grins* Now. *kisses him passionately*
Claire: And what am I supposed to do here?
Oh..you know...
*pushes her into the lake*
Have fun!
Erica: *moans quietly into the kiss, hands under his shirt and on his stomach*
*pushes him gently back*
Claire: *her eyes glow white and she lifts up to Silente's level* Yes, fun.
Oh well THAT'S just cheating.
*runs and jumps, tackling Claire and diving into the lake, letting her go once under the water*
Claire: *comes back to the surface, sputtering* *her eyes glow white and she is lifted up on to the surface of the water* *walks towards Silente* That's not fair!
*surfaces and laughs, splashing water at her*
Erica: *grins back*
Claire: *raises her hand and the water stops several centimetres from her* *forms it into individual balls of water and throws it back at her*
*laughs and dives under to avoid the balls of water*
Erica: *kisses him back, pushing him over onto his bed, grinning*
Claire: *lifts her from the water and splashes her*
*laughs, trying to shield herself with her hands*
Erica: *smiles*
*crawls towards him on the bed, kissing up his chest*
Claire: *splashes water at her from all sides with a wave of her hand*
Now later when I get back will any of you actually particupate if I do someyhing involving all of Blogland?-Zaf
*squeals,not expecting that*
*blinks, shaking her head, sending water droplets everywhere*
You'll be awake, believe me. If I wasn't forced to go to church I'd do it now.-Zaf
I'd just start kneeling to Loki to save the pain...-Zaf
(It'll also depend if I'm on my phone or not..)
Erica: *smiles, pushing him down onto his back, laying on him*
(It depends what it is, Zafira. I do not agree to enter anything without knowing what it is, first.)
Claire: *splashes her again*
It will save pain, read back what Loki and Zan did last night...*poofs cuz she needs to get ready* -Zaf
Erica: You okay there?
*smiles*

Okay you win! *laughs, soaked to the skin*
Erica: Very. *kisses him passionately, sucking slightly on his bottom lip*
Claire: I know I do.
*rolls eyes*
Erica: *blushes and moans, removing Xan's shirt*
Claire: Oh! I heard of some drug smugglers on my police radio which is only a few metres away from our house. Want to go kill them?
(I will be back soon.)
*sighs and rolls eyes*
Sure.
Wait our house?
Erica: *shiver and grins, matching his passion, sliding his pants off*
(Hello?)
(HELLO GARFIELD!)
Erica: *skips all the R rated-ness*
*grins, breathing heavily*
Erica: *hugs him, snuggled against his chest*
(Hello Sil how be you?)
(Hello Xan how be you?)
(Erica, Xan, keep it pg-13!)
(Hi!)
(I'm good thanks Garr! You?
@Tia *salutes* Yes Sir! ;) )
Why are you winking at me, Ms Tempest?
Erica: You're welcome..*kisses him gently* yes.
(I'm cool thank you)
(Hello Tia how be you?)
(I am back.)
Claire: Sure. We both live there. Make a portal to our house.
*opens a portal to just outside their front door*
Erica: *sighs happily and smiles*
Claire: *steps through* *opens the door and walks into the house*
Erica: *lays in his arm, happy, almost slipping into sleep*
*follows behind Claire calmly*
(Feel free to answer the question, Silente.)
(I must go. If you, any of you, have ever wanted to rant about/explain nunchucks, feel free to email me.
See you later!)
Claire: *closes the door behind Silente, then moves into the kitchen* *walks down into the cellar*
*rolls eyes and follows her into the cellar*
Erica: *laughs* Yep.
Claire: What?
Nothing. Which weapons you planning on using here?
Claire: I always have my hatchets and throwing knives. And a silenced pistol. *removes her clothes, and fits on her light body armour instead*
Erica: *yawns slightly and laughs* You're warm..
*stands, waiting patiently*
Claire: *puts on her black helmet* *her voice is distorted by a voice changer, making it seem much deeper* Do you want a weapon?
*laughs at her voice* Nice. And nah, I got a few tricks up my sleeves.
Erica: Mmmm *snuggles into his chest, falling asleep*
Claire: I have a rocket launcher.
THAT I don't have..
Claire: Do you want to use the rocket launcher?
Actually I'm more interested in HOW you have a rocket launcher..
Claire: *shrugs* You do not need to know that.
Fine..hurry up.
Claire: I'm nearly done. *slides blades and her hatchets into her belt, along with shuriken* Right, I'm ready.
Good. Lead the way.
Claire: *nods* *walks out of the cellar and towards the front door*
*stops ghosting for a sec*
Avril Lavinge...
Is THIRTY?
O_o
What the actual fudge?
*goes back to ghosting*
(IKR Pho..O_o)
*follows close behind*
(Hello soph how be you?)
(and i have just seen everything, a nine year old with a rocket launcher)
Claire: *locks the door behind Silente, and climbs on to her motorbike*
