This time next week, many of you will have the final book in your hands. Most of you will be reading it. Some of you will be finished it.
I am so utterly delighted with the book and how it turned out — I really think it's the best one of the series — and so I am thrilled with the trailer that artist extraordinaire Tom Percival has come up with.
The clocking is counting down...

«Oldest ‹Older 4001 – 4200 of 4721 Newer› Newest»Earlier Elleni asked if she was the only one who changed moods with other people. I do it too. Recently, I've been sadly sane. Not carzy. But when I'm here, because I feel comfortable around you peeps, I feel like I can be me carzy self. At school, I'm sane and sometimes I don't even feel like one want to be carzy. But it's hard for me not to be positive so it seems like I'm always carzy. Right now I'm not. It makes me sad. (Kinda....) certain people make me hyper. It's weird.
And STAR (hehe auto correct...) reading back through comments I realized how much I missed your rants.
And about weird impulses. Oh gosh....
I once dragged a 30 pound tree for a mile on a hike. Weird....
And then I made ice. I don't know why I dragged the tree I just saw it and picked it up...
And HI PEOPLES!
Manuel: That is understandable. You do an important job. But do not let the job become your life.
Hello dugglyn
(As in I'm not carzy. But I'm still positive!)
*a huge grin spreads across his face*
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HARRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
(and yes i was talking earlier about how i change with different people)
Hey Dugz! Zaf's mad.
Hey Eddie! You're back!!!
*hugs*
We thought you were dead!
*runs upwars, yes upwars i mean upwars with no d - he runs upwars and runs back down*
Hi!
Sophia: The job is my life. You can't stop it happening. Being a Spectre isn't something you do for seven hours a day, it's something that merges with you. You are constantly a Spectre.
You were the only person to take notice of me - well, without trying to kill me - at the ball. Why?
Not dead, just tortured for hundreds of years
Gethie: Kerias-Zafira, you are being illogical.
(he's basically back from the dead.)
(Well, Egg, yes you were but Elleni started earlier.....)
*smiles at the warm welcome*
EEEEEEEGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey Sil! Zaffy is mad? Yeah, I got that. You do mean carzy mad right?
(also gethie)
Manuel: ...You seemed uncomfortable. I wanted to see if I could help.
*half of a lie*
(I died under torture but a powerful friend owed me a favour and brought me back)
(no assasinate then witness victim of the dead be brought back-mad
No I mean mad as in angry.
Oh. Why is that Sil?
Sophia: *frowns* There's something else. I know the signs of someone who is only telling part of a story.
She forgot to hide the body so the body is no longer headless.
Gethie: Greetings Carzainia-Dugglyn.
Zafira: I could care less, you all should die.
Manuel: Yes. There is something else.
Silente, you have your head back.
Gethie's like our own big 'The Engineer' guy. Why doesn't he have a crayon smiley face?
Zaf they've done no wrong. Leave them alone.
Really?
Or maybe she wanted to sing the song so she went to sing 'To You Want To Hide A Body?' But then it got found before she got back.
Who was the body?
*gives egg a crayon*
I was.
Hello everyone!
*hears zaf*
Oh just shut up you!
You're a goodfornothingselfishandselfcenteredidiot
GETHIE!
HI!
*looks at Zaffy*
*frowns*
I think...
You need a hug.
*hugs her tightly*
Hey Amy!
Hello amethyst
How are you all?
*is still hugging Zaf*
Purple Amy!
Wanna hug Zaffy with me? She needs a hug.
Alive! For once! Are you still hugging me?
I be great!! How be's yous?! How be's yous eyes?!
Zafira: *gets out of the hug and whips shadows at Egg*
Yes, I should be...
I'm fine, thanks!
Fine thank you
Dugglyn, you hug Zafira and I will hug Silente! Yay!
*draws a smiley face on gethie in pink*
There!
Sophia: What is it?
Gethie: Kerias-Zafira, this unit recommends you cease combat. It will dramatically decrease your life expectancy.
*let's go and glares at Zaf*
Do. Not. Hurt. Egg!
*punches her in the face*
Zaf! Stop attacking people! Geez.
*rolls eyes*
Gethie: *wipes it off* That was unnecessary.
*duplicates self*
Hi!
Hi!
Omg how did you know i was gonna say that
Hug!
*both hug silente and zafira*
Violence is not the answer Zaf
Manuel: It is of a private matter.
*runs over to Gethie*
It was completely necessary!
*draws another one on him*
Please keep it!
...*whispers to Silente* What's happening?
Gethie: Correction - violence has been determined as an effective method of getting desired results.
True gethie, violence is the answer
Sophia: You've seen and heard my private matters. You can tell me yours.
Gethie: *wipes it off again*
*whispers back* Zaf killed me then Ed and egg fixed me and Zaf is mad and she attacked egg so Dug punched Zaf.
*merge into eachother again*
That was.. a pleasant experience.
And dugglyn, don't worry i'm unstoppable, remember?
*shoots self and heals*
hmph.
Manuel: I don't have many friends per say in blogland. You seemed..approachable.
*sorta true*
Ah...Maybe sugar shaker needs a hug too?
Gethie: *a rocket launcher folds out from each shoulder, then splits into seven different pieces* It would be unwise to continue, Kerias-Zafira.
*looks disappointed*
Gethie!
*draws another smiley face with permanent marker*
Sugar shaker does need a hug.
Sophia: So you decided that, the person in the room who was most approachable, was the one who had the highest kill count, two pistols strapped to her leg and a starship parked outside?
There's more to it than that.
*nods* Yea...
*walks toward Zafira*
*hugs her*
*walks in front of gethie*
This is not needed Geth.
I can beat her up.
*turns around and his fist connects with zafira's jaw*
Manuel: You seemed lonely.
*goes over to Egg*
*frowns*
You should stop doing that. It hurts. So does getting shadows in you. It hurts. I know you can fix it but it still hurts.
Gethie: Your ink is obstructing the vision of this unit. Please refrain from doing so, Carzainia-Dugglyn. *the ink bubbles away*
Zafira: *screeches, freaking out from being punched and hugged
*drinks glass of wine*
Sophia: I didn't want to talk to many people.
(That was about shooting yourself...)
Calm down, sugar shaker...
Do you want some sugar?
*takes out a small bag of candy*
*laughs at zaf's reaction*
*turns to dug*
I know it hurts, but if she does attack me then I have a chance to make sure she doesn't attack the rest of the guys.
Or you.
Manuel: forgive me if I disturbed you.
*moves to Zaf as a blur and cracks and elbow into her jaw hard enough to knock her out*
Salty! Bad, bad, bad! No hurting other shakers! D:
Sophia: No, I appreciate it.
*sighs*
Fine.
But can I draw a smiley face later? And then when it gets in the way you can rub it off?
Seriously people, let people talk before you hit them.
*turns back to zafira and sends a knee to her chin as she moves away from silente*
Manuel: Appreciate or appreciated?
*looks at Amy*
She killed me. That was pay back.
You deserve that.
BAD BAD BAD!
*hugs Zafira to protect her*
No more hitting!!!
Gethie: Allowing communication between warring sides is illogical. It removes the advantage of firing first.
Well be careful.
(Does anyone else think that be careful should be one word? I do...)
*pauses time, moves amy to Africa and plays time again*
*slaps zafira*
Gethie: That would be acceptable Carzainia-Dugglyn.
Sophia: Both.
*puts a hand on Egg's shoulder*
Here... stop for a moment. She stands no chance against all of us.
Orpheus: *jumps out from behind El*
BOO!
*turns back to geth*
Yes, but it allows us to humiliate her.*
*turns to zafira again*
*slaps her again*
...
*looks around*
...
o_o
Where did everyone go?
Zafira: *is knocked out cold*
Ravel: Get away from her.
Gethie: Humiliation is illogical. A sensation experienced by organic minds without reason.
*sighs*
Fine.
Egg, stop now
Sugar shaker? Salty shaker?
Anyone?
*has no idea what to do now*
Hey El!!!!!!!
Ok Gethie...
*sees ravel and instantly sends a fist flying towards his face*
Ravel, she beheaded silente.
*cries*
*pauses time again and senses amy crying and gets her back*
You can hug someone now.
Orpheus: *grins* hey.
Manuel: *his mouth twitches slightly in a smile* That's good.
Okay Ravel.
*backs up from Zaf's unconscious form*
Gethie: Shooting him with one hundred and seventy missiles would bring higher chances of success.
*looks around*
*hugs Zafira* Sugar shaker!
Sophia: I suppose it is.
*finally calms down*
Phooo!
That was... something.
*smiles*
Thanks Egg.
*turns to Ravel*
We're done now! No more hard feelings! All good!
(*dies every time she sees Ravel's name*
*can't decide if she forgives him or not. She feels bad for him but also hates him...*
*is worried because her dad who is reading KOTW really like Ghastly and Ravel....*)
But Geth, why kill when you can beat him up and feel smug?
Manuel: *nods* The ball is most likely over by now.
Sophia: I'm sorry if you wanted to be there until the end. I didn't mean to stay this long.
Orpheus: How are you? I think your friends are being violent.
*looks at the unconcious zafira and seems a bit confused*
Why did I... ?
*leaves bag of candy next to Zafira*
*goes to hug Silente*
(I know.... same thing I did. Two favorite characters: Ghastly and Ravel. Chapter 51: I was sobbing. It broke my brain...
Not even joking. I got all morbid and stuff after that.)
Manuel: Oh I didn't mind how long I remained there. It was somewhere to be. Miss Tempest insisted I go.
Ravel: *grabd Zaf and goes to the treehouse*
*looks at Egg*
Why did you what?
*whispers*...bye bye sugar shaker. Get well soon...
Beat her...
She's ...
Can we go now?
Orpheus: The dark one is with the banshee and the time twisters.
Sophia: Why did she want you to go?
*hugs Amy*
Don't worry, she'll be fine! Just give her a day.
(Sugar is angry at Salt. Salt has been given a death sentence by Sugar. Sugar killed Salt with...er...salt.
XD Love this!)
*hears orpheus*
Time shifters, thank you very much.
Do I dare ask what you did to one of your leaders?
Gethie: This unit does not understand organics.
Manuel: She insisted that it was an important event and that everyone had to be there.
Time shifters
*sees bag of candy still on ground*
*picks it up and hands it to Loki* Can you give this to sugar shaker...Zafira?
Sophia: That makes sense. Did you enjoy it?
Ravel I have no leader and she did beheaded silente
Orpheus: The dark one is with Dugglyn. And Egg. And Edward. And Amy.
(Im here ^^ I feel refreshed after circuit training)
*turns his head to Dugglyn and he grins*
Wanna go flying?
(Hello Inky!)
Hello inky
msd
(Heya Am ^^
I have found this song called the stereotypes song)
hay inkay
Manuel: It was better than I presumed it would be. Did you enjoy the ball commander Keeting?
(whats happening in RP)
*looks worriedly (it's. A. Word.) At Egg*
Yeah, we can go. But don't worry, she's not dead!
Sophia: Somehow I'd think I'd have enjoyed it even less if I had no one to talk to. *staggers a little*
Orpheus: Yes. The one with the swirling dark energy that's started bubbling.
(How is everyone doing?)
(well me and silente beat zafira up after she decapitated silente)
(now ravel is with zafira at their treehouse)
(I'm fine, thanks. You?)
(I'm fine thanks Chloe. You?)
(Fine thanks)
Manuel: *steadied her again* Maybe you should lay down..
*wraps an arm around Dugglyn's waist*
*they leave the ground and are now flying*
Do you like flying?
*sighs*
*sits near a tree and sucks on a lollipop*
(Ah okay)
*wakes up and makes way to cottage*
*goes inside and changes to human*
*Dresses in a floral dress*
*goes to the local bar*
(Im...calm
Im starting college tomoz and should be nervous )
Sophia: Maybe I should.
Go to her treehouse.
Orpheus: the dark one is much more ominous..
Manuel: Do you require assistance?
*mouth twitches into a slight smile*
Bartender: Welcome Miss Inky, the usual?
Inky: Keep em coming, boyo!
*starts drinking first pint*
(Hey Inky!
Soy sauce for slow replies, bad WiFi!)
*lights up*
I love flying!
*takes bag of candy and goes to Zafira's treehouse*
*walks into bar and sits beside inky*
Sophia: I am very drunk. I've had enough alcohol to knock out a Krogan.
*wonders who Loki is talking to*
*grins like a maniac, watching the world below them*
*waves to people on the ground*
*drops 10 face flavored lollipops next to Amy*
(I think he is talking to me because I asked him to give a bag of candy to Zafira a few minutes ago...)
*looks at Ed*
*eyes open wide*
I...thought you were dead
*notices many lollipops falling from sky*
*picks them up and adds them to my bags of candy*
*continues walking to Zafira's treehouse*
Manuel: Do you want to lean on me? I presume you would be against being lifted into your bed.
(Holy fudge...the song booty store is the new low)
Yes, well I'm back
*mutters*idiot, going off like that
*continues drinking*
Sophia: *leans against him, unsteady on her feet*
*sees the treehouse ahead and runs toward it*
*shouts* Zafira? Ravel? Anyone?
Manuel: *steadied her with a hand on her opposite arm and walks with her towards her bed*
* drinks several bottles of wine* Since when did death stop me
Sophia: Thank you. I think I'm so... disorientated, that I wouldn't be able to walk properly by myself.
*Shrugs*
that wasn't clever, though.
Im sick of people dying on me
*starts getting progressively drunk*
(Egg? Did ya Poof?)
Also, I'm sorry. :P If I knew people liked reading my rants, I would rant more. When someone says "Rant!" at you, though, you're just like "RANT ABOUT WHAT???????????", otherwise I would rant now . . . XD
Manuel: It's quite alright. I wouldn't want you to get hurt.
Well, I'm back now so that's what matters. *drinks more bottles*
(@Star I just enjoy seeing them. And reading them. It doesn't mean you have to rant more, I just missed them when you were gone.)
I g g guess *hiccups*
I shooould really g g give thiss up
*motions to pint*
Sophia: Why not?
(Brb.)
*sits near treehouse*
*takes out a face flavored lollipop and sucks on it*
@Dugglyn: :O
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwh.
*hugs*
Thanks . . . :) Thanks. :)
Yeah, but I LIKE ranting. :P So I probably should. Like. :P
What's wrong with drinking *throws up on bar*
(*realizes asking someone if they poofed doesn't make sense*
*whatever...*)
I DEDICATE THIS PAGE TO YOU LOVELY PEOPLE ON HERE WHO SAY YOU LIKE ME WHEN I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT I DID. :P
*motions to sick* That!
*goes to leave*
come ooooon! We need to g g goooooo!
(Well, yes, but do it when you want, that way you still like it.)
Ravel: Come in...
(**@Star
And here here!!)
Ok *heads for door but walks into wall and falls to ground*
(*hugs Starry*)
Manuel: Because it is not something I would wish upon many people.

*sighs*
*hiccups*
*helps him up*
*guides him outside*
*sits him onto a bench*

*climbs up to treehouse and goes inside*

*Elleniiiii has the kind of name I like extending the letter on, like Adraaaaaaaa*
