A few hours ago I was sent the finalists for the Gordon Edgley Book Review competition, where people had to review books that they (or anyone else) had never actually read. These reviews were BRILLIANT. We got some of the best, most imaginative responses back, and it was not easy picking winners.
But picking winners is what I had to do, and so the winners are Patricia Snake, Sophie Carter, Ella Corkum and Katie Roberts-Malpass.
Huge congratulations to the winners, and a huge congratulations to EVERYONE who entered. You have kept me entertained...!

«Oldest ‹Older 2401 – 2600 of 4638 Newer› Newest»Why? You certainly seem ready, and I really do want to put a stop to Loki's ever so intimidating insults.
*freezes in position*
*about to sneeze*
*mouth contorted awkwardly*
*Blinks.*
Erm. Ms. Crowley? You seem a tad...
*Coughs.*
Distressed, I suppose?
*still frozen*
Because, Blake, I don't want you to get hurt.
Blake, I am not in the greatest mood, if you fight Rose, fine. I am not her master, but I do not wish to fight you today. I have duties to attend to on Asgard.
Zanida: Blake, do you know what the Aether is? (If not ask.)
*laughs a cruel, twisted laugh*
YOU WILL PAY MORTALS!!!!
*she walks over to the sign on the fort and with her mind, erases it*
*she then writes 'Dugglyn's fort (also Elleni and Clara's)'*
*grins*
*realises Elleni and Clara*
I've heard of it, Zanida. Not sure exactly what it is though. Oh and Rose, that actually made me laugh on the inside.
I dedicate this page to Tom Hiddleston. He probably will never know I did this, but hey. To Hiddles!
-Zaffy
Blake!!! Don't. Please. I don't want to fight you.
*is un-frozen*
Ah-CHOO!
*Dugglyn's blanket fort falls apart from the force of the sneeze*
. . .
. . . Oh.
Zanida: Good, I am the host, so unless you want your little arse kicked, I suggest backing down. Nobody touches my brother, or threatens to. Ok? Ok.
*begins taking huge, loud breaths*
You. Just. Destroyed. My. FORT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*the last word is so loud it blows everything in the room down*
*shrieks*
YOU WILL ALL PAY!!!!!!!!!!!
...*hugs Dugglyn*
*yells, but in a rather sick and pathetic way*
It is YOU who will pay for the damage you've done to my private room!
You see Zanida, if you didn't want to fight me that was the exact opposite of what you wanted to say.
Because now I'm interested.
*Chains writhe around his left arm as his right glows*
Which weapon should I start with..?
Yes, I agree with Elleni! Don't hurt me! I am a valuable commodity in some countries!
*clutches stuffed bunny for protection*
Blake. Don't touch Zanida, okay? Please.
(Blione sounds like a type of ice cream.)
(HEAR HEAR!!!!)
(Anni sounds like she needs a beating ._.)
(Also,
HEAR FUCKING HEAR)
(And you sound like you near a treating . . . TO A DELICIOUS BLIONE CONE.)
....
*hugs Amy*
:))))
*turns back to Elleni and Clara*
*looks at the destruction*
*glares*
That is all I will do! If I wanted to time could make you explode! I could destroy your precious hotel! Lucky I liked Shudder so I shall not do that to him. You're lucky mortal!
-_-
(*need)
(I'm in with the beating of the Anni...)
HERE!!!!!! HERE!!!!!!! :))))))
*nods*
*crosses arms*
As long as I run this hotel, I expect to be treated like Anton Shudder. Except I'd prefer it if some people liked me.
*ba-dum TISH*
*rebuilds the fort with her mind*
*reorganizes the room*
Please don't beat me. Not only am I sick, but I also wear glasses. That's two points in favor of me on the Should We Beat Up Anni scale.
(*Grabs Anni by the collar and hurls her into the wild blue yonder*)
*hugs Clara* I like you. :)
That was very considerate of you, Dugglyn. Thank you.
*offers a pillow as a peace offering*
*glares*
YOU JUST AWAKENED IT!!!!!!!!!!! IT WAS ALWAYS IN ME!!!!!!
*sits in bed*
*blinks*
*decides that the sudden trip into the wild blue yonder and sudden return was probably just a dizzy spell*
(I like you also, Amethyst, but I will not hug you, for fear of giving you The Sickness.)
(*squishes Blake's brain with her mind*)
Zanida: You want a fight, Midgardian? Tomorrow. Be around. My realm needs me, but I will fight you tomorrow, you have my word. *to Rose* I will be fine, Rose. Loki knows this.
Rose, Zan and I need to go to Asgard, we have to deal with the Dark Elves, love. You may join us whenever. *The Asgardians walk away and Zanida looks up*
Zanida: Heindall.
*The two go back to Asgard (Rose included if she wants)*
((I want to sleep my eyeballs are closing as I typ, i will go on and you can fight tomorrow, Blake.-ZF
Goodnight, Zafira. Don't let the thing in the closet get you.
*Appears beside Clara in a flash of light*
*Pokes her with a glowing finger*
Ta-da, you're healed. First one's on the house, if I have to do it again it'll be somewhere around $91023781231.
Just a rough estimate.
*Disappears in another flash*
Good night Zafira.
(I think I'll chill in Blogland, actually... I'll see you tonight, maybe.)
(Bye, Zaf.)
*Looks wistfully at the spot where the Asguardians vanished*
Damn, I was kinda looking forward to that. I suppose I can wait...
*blinks*
*appears to be magically recovered*
*wishes I had a Blake Soul to cure me in real life*
((Anni- my closet doors are on the floor so hopefully nothing pops out
Rose- Alright. Just come up when/if you want. I'll be on in your morning. I hope.-Zaf
^^your night
Hurrah! I am cured!
*climbs out of bed, touching all the contaminated pillows as she does so*
*stands up*
*wobbles*
*falls back down*
Hang it all.
Hmm. Everyone seems to have gone.
*Appears beside Clara once more*
Well look at it this way, for just 4,551,189,061 payments of $19.99, you could be healed instantly!
(Night Zaffy!! Don't let the zombie caterpillars go up your nose and eat your brains!!!)
(Brb)
Blake. Okay. Leave people alone... You have kids, right? Everyone here is someone's kid.
I'm afraid you somewhat overestimate how much hotel managers are paid.
I should get to bed early tonight if I want to recover soon. Thank you, all, for making being sick not quite as miserable as it would otherwise be. I love you all, even the ones I don't particularly like.
*winks*
*departs*
How would you feel if I got your kids and hurt them? Wouldn't like it, huh?
Good bye, Clara. Get well soon!
You would be dead before you touched them.
(Bye Clara.)
Wanna bet...? I could. My twins are up in Asgard, so they're safe. You children, however, are very much here.
*growls at Rose and Blake*
Don't hurt each other kids!!!!
I will make you not if necessary!!
*His body flickers and disappears, becoming visible once more directly in front of Rose. His hand wraps tightly around her neck, barely giving her room to breath*
If you think a mere gap in realms will keep you safe from me, you are sadly mistaken.
*creates a force field of air between Blake and Rose*
I'll hurt his kids if he thinks of touching my Asgardians...
And he has thought of touching them...
I'm going to go now. Good bye!
Bye Amy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*She gasped and tried to push Blake away from her*
Get... Off... Me...
*A condensed blast of light hurtles bast Dug's head*
You stay out of it, you're not even worth a the power in my finger.
(Forget that "a"'s there)
*she blocks it with her own stream of light*
I am not just that pesky Dugglyn. I am Duggesse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*He throws Rose to the ground*
Threaten my children again and I will not be so gentle.
(And now I have to go...
Pie!)
*Raises an eyebrow at Duggesse*
Very well then, should you attempt to fight me I'll use all the power in my finger to defeat you.
(Bye Dug)
*She gasped again and looked up at Blake from her position on the ground*
Don't... Touch... My Asgardians... If you do... Your children won't breathe... Much longer...
*She gasped again and looked up at Blake from her position on the ground*
Don't... Touch... My Asgardians... If you do... Your children won't breathe... Much longer...
*Chains wrap tightly around Rose's neck and wrists, lifting her into the air*
What did I just say?
*His arms glow, large spiked gauntlets appearing around them*
You have approximately five seconds to spit out a good reason for me not to pound the life out of you.
(El...)
*She clenched her jaw, trying to calm her burning lungs*
I'm... A mother... You bastard... That's like me... Killing Chi...
*The chains loosen, letting her drop to the ground. His gauntlets glow and disappear, followed by his self a moment later*
*She cursed and got back to her feet*
Seriously? I didn't lay a finger on you. It's words. I would never harm a child, you idiot. I was hurt horribly as a child. You think I was to inflict that on them?! Come back here and talk!!
*He appears inside his home, the twin's bedroom to be exact. After checking with Chi's ice clone to see if anything had happened, he took both the toddlers out of their cribs and sat them on his knees, bouncing them up and down*
*She groaned and rubbed her wrists. They were red and sore, and she needed to get rid of the marks.
She walked over to the lake and dipped her arms in the water, cooling them down before she completed the next part of her healing*
(My ribs hurt...
*Cries*)
(*Hugs El*
I need to get a form for the formal soon... I might do it now...)
*He sets the twins back in their cradles, tickling them and smiling at their giggles*
*In a flash, he's gone again*
*She pulled her blue hands out of the water and, without moving her arms, made her way to the remnants of her old base. She rifled through the items spews across the floor and grimaced when she found it.
This was going to hurt.
She cursed and pulled the box open, revealing the shining mechanism inside. She lay her wrists on two cracked, leather pads, and flinched when the latches closed around her wrists.
The last bits of magic she had were drained from her being. She screamed in pain but didn't pull away.
Minutes later, the mechanism released her wrists and curled back into itself*
Bloody hell...
(Class...)
(Got to go, goodnight.)
Night Blake!!!!
Duggesse? Naw, I'm me again.
My brother just threw a huge fit. Like lots o screaming. I'm not even sure what about but now he's calm like nothing happened!
Did I tell you Duggesse is brilliant? As in the idea/name? Cause it is!!!
Wanna role play?
Oh I just thought of something! Remember when Clara was shipping people with Darquesse? Well it could be Dugglyn x Darquesse! XD
Any ideas?!
They're kanji! I know the one for shellfish because my friend who takes Japanese wrote it all over my note book and then I was bored so I looked up water, fire, and earth! So now I have water, fire, earth, and...
SHELLFISH!!!!! :D
Fire..
Earth...
Water..
SHELLFISH!!!!!
That's cool!
Yeah, for some reason I only remember shellfish. It's weird..
So any role play ideas?
Hmm.
*waits for an idea to fall put of the sky*
*an idea comes falling down hitting Dugglyn on the head*
*she falls down*
*sits up, the world spinning*
I-i have an i-i dead!!!!!
An :-O dea!
(Do you know how to play the guitar? We have 5 right now and if we want we can keep on and I wanna play it!)
(I figured out how to play Twinkle twinkle little star!!!)
*sways, almost falling over*
My idea is...
Cheese. You must get much cheese. Before the leave shall fall...
*up high in the sky, a small leave can be seen falling*
Quickly!
(What was the ?? About?)
*her eyes are wide*
Yes! The cheese!! Many many cheese!! Quickly!!! Quickly...!
*faints*
(Ah. My idea is my idea! I figured, well let's just start! If anything random pops into your head, start it!)
(Hey Fabi!!! How be's yous?! How be's yous eyes?!)
Tired. Both me and my eyes are tired.
Aww... you should sheep soon!
Yeah. I just got home from dance, though.
[hugs]
Oh, what kind of dance?
Jazz.
Also, I had a Pilates class.
I enjoy it as well, though it's really not my strong suit.
Ooh cool! I do Irish dance.
And Pilates?! Wow, it makes sense that you're tired!
I should sheep...
Night!!!
Irish dance is so cool.
Yeah. "If you're not sore tomorrow, you're doing it wrong."
Sheep well!
Okay bye
(hey)
(stupid mouse)
(that probably won't help...)
(to fix you)
(with immense difficulty.)
(thats probably wise.)
(she couldn't leave you as a raven. Just like how she can't keep dug mad at her.)
(Dug D:)
(she wanted to be able to do her job. And to protect herself and her friends.)
(hey Soph)
(@el she realises the plan was somewhat flawed.)
(very flawed then.)
(she rather regrets it.)
(Hello Dugglyn and Silente. How are you both?)
(im okay. You soph?)
(@el good.)
(*Elleni. God damn it Dragona, learn to type.)
(I am somewhere between average and worse than average. I have no idea why.)
(Alright Elleni.
Are you discussing the torture?)
(It seems that people have spontaneously disappeared.)
(I see. I have had difficulty also - I keep getting a warning saying conflicting edits.
Yes. I wouldn't have done what Silente did.)
(I am glad. She should. She tortured her friend for her own gain.
I do not believe torture is ever good - I don't do it. The results of doing so would only gain you false information and I don't believe in it morally.)
(What with?)
(I see. *nods* Hello Silente.)
Hello commander
YES IT WORKED!
(You are back, I presume?)
(I am indeed.)
(That is good.)
(Yes it is. My phone doesn't have to fear the window now.)
(what would Min's poison have done?)
(Paralysis, mostly. With a hint of feeling the pain of every person she had ever hurt.)
(Why is that, Elleni?)
(Hm. And what would Min have done if Sil HAD been paralysed by the poison?)
(Turned back to her normal form and stabbed her, most likely. Or taken her back to her realm.
I see, Elleni.)
(Well at least she wouldn't have eaten her.)
(Minerve only occasionally eats people.)
(Only occasionally?)
(Yes. She does not gain anything from it. Well, she likes the taste. And she finds it amusing. But nothing apart from that.)
(Shit.)
(Does she reserve it for people she's particularly angry at?)
(@El XD Isn't it just?)
(Yes, she does. So far, Silente is only a minor irritation.
I will try to think of a dedication.)
(msd.)
(Hmm. May have to change that...
Sil: CHALLENGE ACCEPTED! IN FOR A PENNY IN FOR A POUND!)
(I dedicate this page to character equality. Because I want to.)
(Hear hear
Morning ^^)
(I may have to leave. Goodbye.)
(Anybody here?)
(*starts tapping a beat*
Reach for the stars
Climb every mountain higher
Reach for the stars
Climb to your hearts desire
And when that rainbows shining over you
That's when your dreams all come true)
*surprises Inky with a hug*
I just realized I haven't been on for almost 2 days. o.o

Fire drill in the rain fog and cold..

Aww, hello!
