Hello.
Ah, my poor neglected blog. How I have ignored you. Once you were the apple of my eye (okay, not really — the name of this blog is what it is, after all), but then along came Twitter and suddenly you seemed somewhat clunky and... unwieldy...
But see? I have returned. I've been away a lot, I know. Work. I had that book to publish (which went really well, by the way) and then all those tours, including a trip to New Zealand and Australia to meet all those readers with funny accents.
My life has been somewhat chaotic as of late, and when things get chaotic, some other things suffer. You, it seems, are one of these things.
But I'll try to rectify that. I really will. I'm home now, after all, and settling back into normal life. What normal life will bring me, though, I have no idea.

(*laughs* okay, if you say so me funny guy XD)
(what? I'm serious!)
(Sureeee)
(I can resolve this!)
*pushes Garr and Flick headfirst through an interdimensional portal that closes behind them and dumps them in a sea of some different dimension* have fun!
*Cries*
Blakey kitty...
(*huggles Death*)
((Wait! Sil!))
*Huggles Inky*
I missed Blakey... Blakey kitty...
(Aww death...)
(Apologies, it appears that I disappeared briefly.)
Claire: Which one is that?
(I have played Mass Effect previously. I am not fond of the start of Mass Effect 3 - or Mass Effect 2, actually - due to what has happened to me in the past. But the games themselves are fairly good, by my standards. Dragona loves them. I am somewhat closer to neutral.)
*Sniffs*
I won't see him for a week...
(*gives Death a kitten* this is no Blakey kitty, but it's somethig you can huggle)
*Shakes her head at the kitty*
I want a Blakey kitty!!
Stacey: *leads them to the changing rooms, going past a disabled toilet on the way* this one.
(*mutters* kittens are attention seeking gits
*louder* how about a bunny?)
No!! I want a BLAKEY kitty!!!
But he's gone...
(Hello Rose *offers huggle*)
(Inks: i was just kidding, about me being serious)
(*sighs* well the best I can do is a bunny
*sits down *)
(I kinda guessed tiger)
(Mass Effect 2 is my favourite game. Nothing will ever beat it, in my opinion.)
@Blogland
Roses are red.
I don't want to live anymore.
It hurts so much.
I'm thinking of ways to kill myself.
I'm sorry for letting you down.
Just... please help me. Make me cry.
It hurts so much.
But I can't let it out.
I want to cry tonight.
Help me
(Tia, *offers huggle* (its a bro huggle)
I'm not sure how to make you cry)
(@Tia DON'T YOU DARE IF YOU DO I AM FOLLOWONG YOU AND THEN WE'LL BOTH BE STUCK AND DEATHY WILL FOLLOW AND EMERALD AND ZAF AND MAYBE SOPH AND my lord blogland is unstable...)
Claire: One moment. I'm just going to the bathroom. *goes into the disabled toilet* *shuts and locks the door behind her* *takes off her clothes, removing the armour underneath panel by panel, before putting her clothes back on* *flushes the toilet to make it somewhat believable, then steps out of the toilet*
Tia...
*Cuddles*
I'm sorry...
*hugs Sil* there are tears pouring down my face but I'm not crying, I'm not letting out the pain...
(*huggles Tia tightly* please don't YOU ARE AWESOME
Too many of my friends want to die, I can't seem to cheer them up)
Stacey: come on. *walks into the changing room*
*whispers* gotta get my knives off. I'll follow soon. *goes into the bathroom*
(@Tia you wish to cry? Okay. Check your email when i tell you to.)
Claire: Alright, Rebecca. *walks into the changing room with Stacey*
I want to do more than cry.
But I'm on my bed, curled up, silent, letting nothing out, letting the tears dry, wanting to let out moans akin to a dying animal.
I don't want you to see me like this.
Good bye.
I'll be ok.
(I'm going to disappear now, so goodbye,
I'm going for good reason, I'm not very helpful in these situations / moments so that's why) *disappears*
(I'm still going to be available for emails though Inks)
(Tia, I emailed you... I may get into trouble for emailing someone I do t know in person but I don't care)
(*huggles Gar* you are )
Tia... Please be okay...
(Tia...check your email. *hugs*)
*walks to the toilet and locks the door, quickly opening a portal and putting her knives in the room the portal opens into, taking quite a while* *flushes and exits, going to the changing room*
Stacey: took your time..
Claire: *changes into her new PE kit*
*returns*
It hurts a little less now, I've cried a little...
Danni, forgive me for making you worry. *hugs*
*hugs everyone*
*Hugs back* Please... Just be okay... I don't want Blogland to breakie you too... ~ Danni
(*huggles Tia* I am here for you, we all are)
I'll be ok. How are you?
(I'm going to go now
But I'll be available on email)
*changes quickly*
Stacey: come on. We're running behind..
*walks to the track outside where the rest of the class are*
Teacher: ah. Joining is today Stacey? How lucky of me to be graced with your presence.
Good bye, Chloe.
I'm okay... Body isn't too good from the other night...
And we're going to darwin tonight...
Claire: *follows Stacey to the track* Cool! Are we running?
Teacher: hurdles. You must be....Rebecca?
That's me.
Teacher: ah so you're Tara. Well, get warmed up and Stacey...don't distract the other pupils.
Ah, yes you mentioned that. Have a good time, Danni!
Thank you, Tia. I shall spendthr one worrying over you, however...
Claire: *starts stretching her leg muscles* Hurdles are fun. *smiles*
(*huggles Tia*)
Don't worry about me, Danni. Don't worry at all. And if you must worry, worry about Zaf. Not me. I'll be ok.
Hurdles are fun. *tilts head* Don't you warm up then stretch?
Stacey: *rolls eyes* okay i know a good warm up...*taps Tara on the shoulder* TIG *runs*
Claire: *runs to Silente and taps her on the stomach* Tig! *runs away*
*laughs*
*catches Stacey easily and tigs her*
Stacey: *tigs a random classmate* TIG!
*Rolls over sleepily, yawning and looking around*
*Notices the strange game of "tig" going on*
*Rolls over again on to his feet, ears and tail perked up in curiosity*
Claire: *runs away from the classmate*
(2@9 !2...
(Hello, Adrasdos.)
Classmate: *looks confused and tigs their mate*
*who tigs their friend*
*who tigs a random person*
*and so on and so forth until the whole class is playing tig*
Classmate: *tigs Claire from behind and runs*
*laughs, running backwards away from Claire*
Claire: *tigs another classmate who runs fairly close by* *runs away from her*
Blakey kitty...
Teacher: alright enough class!
*after a while everyone stops*
Teacher: hurdles.
Claire: Yay hurdles!
*nudges Tara*
Teacher: so last lesson we looked at technique. So I want someone to demonstrate to Tara and Rebecca a good hurdle technique.
Stacey: I will!
Teacher: *points to a student who isn't Stacey* you.
*a wolf approaches Rose*
(Tanya's wolfie)
*Pounces on Rose, cuddling her and purring happily*
Claire: *frowns* *whispers to Stacey* Why not you?
Stacey: long story.
*the selected student performs a sloppy hurdle jump*
Teacher: ..well done. Tara, Rebecca, do you want to practice technique with Stacey of prepare for races with the class?
(*Leaving for school...)
*Plops onto the ground and looks at the wolfy. Cuddles Blakey happily*
Claire: Sure? *smiles*
(Aw... bye Rose...)
*Curls up on Rose, his tail twitching softly*
(**or)
We'll practice technique for a bit..
Teacher: very well. *turns back to the class and instructs them*
Stacey: right. Technique.
Claire: Technique... hm... You jump over the metal things.
Stacey: well duh. But you're quite small Tara, so you really need to jump. Rebecca you're taller so you won't have to work as hard. Remember your head should stay about the same height when you hurdle. Wanna try?
Claire: Is doing flips allowed in hurdles?
Stacey: ...no.
Claire: Ah. Okay. That's fine. *nods*
Wait do you know what hurdles are Tara?
Claire: They're like the... barrier things you jump over.
*sigh*
Stacey: okay. Watch. *shows Claire how to hurdle*
Claire: Oh, I see. That's how you do it. That makes sense. I think.
Stacey: okay, you two try
Claire: Do you want to go first, Rebecca?
boop. (hijacking my mums computer at work while she's busy. shhh)
(Hello, Snow. How are you?)
good. sick-ish, but good. you?
FEAST YOUR EYES.
my eyes are rather full, thanks Loki-Poki
(I am depressed.)
(I will be back soon.)
okay Soph.
*Quickly covers his eyes*
(Be back soon, some presentation about collage or something important like that going on <_<)
Once again, herrow puny mortals.
(I am back.)
Puny mortal, how are you?
(That is not my name.)
It's an affectionate nickname.
*warily pokes his head out*
Hello?
I'm sorry if I offended you. I genuinely do affectionately call you all that.
Herrow Tanya, how are ye?
Hrm.
Anyone ghosting right now would be greatly appreciated right now.
Way below average, Trip.
How are you?
Oh you know, megalomaniacal. I'm kind of considering building a giant throne.
Why are you so down, friend?
I don't know, Trip.
Maybe because my brain thinks it's a good idea to make me feel horrible.
Ah, I see.
Well hang in there. And get a regular dosage of hugs, too. I don't care if you're a grown ass man, either. Hugs are manly as hell.
I haven't had a decent hug for a long time.
And I won't.
I don't have anyone to hug me.
I next to no-
I have no physical contact whatsoever.
I'm crying now. Thank you :)
Apologizes.-Zaf
HELLO ZAFIRA, HOW ARE YOU TODAY?
My pleasure, any time. :)
And trust me, more people will be open to a hug than you think, especially to help a friend.
*Curls in a little ball and cries*
*practically leaps on Adra to cuddle her*
*hugs Adra and cries with her*
I think my virtual hugs may be needed . . .
*hugs Tia* *hugs Adra* *probably ends up hugging Trip at the same time* *hi Trip :P*
There are online sites where you can meet cuddle buddies, Tia. :)
Loki...?
I don't know if I'll be here... I've got stuff I need to do. Work and other stuff...
I am here.
*Shrugs out from them*
*Is not here, is busy*
*Sighs*
*Curls up somewhere else*
*It's for the best anyway*
*finds Adra, holds her hand reassuringly*
HELLO ZAFIRA, HOW ARE YOU DOING?
Hey, Danni...
*cuddles Star* Sorry, I know you don't like physical contact...
Fine....watching Thor...-Zat
THE FEELS.-Zaf
I'm fine with virtual hugs. It's just real life contact that's weird. :P *hugs Tia* :)
*tacklehugs Star* -Zaf
*tacklehugs Zaf back* :) :)
(Distant/msd, sorry. :/)
Star, Zaf... *hugs*
*nods*
Well at least I know when Rose goes I will hardly have reason to lurk here.
Zaf, we are here if you need us, if you want to talk, ok?
I do not want a plain box, I want a sarcophagus
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
The hills step off into whiteness.
People or stars
Regard me sadly, I disappoint them.
All morning the
Morning has been blackening,
A flower left out.
My bones hold a stillness, the far
Fields melt my heart.
They threaten
To let me through to a heaven
Starless and fatherless, a dark water
My author sees little point, I for once, agree. The Midgardians run around in little plots, oblivious to those who may not be as well liked. I am not a fool, I am unliked due to my apparent evil tendicies to rule realms. They live their little lives ignorant to my nature, they believe what they can comprehend. They are nothing more then mere mortals. I do not find many 'mages' powerful. Many spoke of one called Darquesse, and another Mevolent. They are nothing. The Midgardians fear true power, which these two individuals must have possesed, in a way mages do. They fear those who know their true name, or are close to it.
My own wife knows her own, I do not fear Rose. Again, they live their little lives ignorant to only what their pathetic minds can handle. I have met Zafira Kerias and Alastair Cruciatus, both know their trurr names. Alastair may be a poweful man, I admit, but I do not fear him, unlike my sister. I give Zanida the credit for she experienced a traumatising event.
((Disclaimer: I do not believe Loki's theory! -Zaf
*points to Adra* Another example. This soul simply feels as if not one of these Midgardians like her. For that, I applaud. To put up with what others have said and done to her is a feat. At least she can still charm her friends, and obviously made more alliances among you all. Adra/Noelle has seen the true curses of humanity, the evils of them.
I'm back kinda...
I recall this not, Midgardian.
Hello, Rose. I wish I could stay but my author's moter is being bitchy. I must depart
Coward am I? Think again, that little vampire is weak. That vampire is a coward, she hardly can defend herself, she needs you to save her sorry self.
OKAY! Before Loki starts World War 3 I am going! Good night.-Zaf
(Damn...
That means I probably wont see Loki until next week...)
*Calmly rolls through the argument, whistling "Happy" to himself*
(Adra...)
Elleni!
Blakey!!!
*Cuddles*
*Is cuddled*
*Cuddles Rose back*
*Continues to roll, pulling Rose along with him*
*Keeps whistling*
*Yelps and rolls with Blakey*
Hi.
*Yelps*
*Yelps again*
*Cuddles*
Adra, are you okay...?
*Rolls past Adra, waving hello*
*Keeps on whistling*
*Hopes others will take note of the song*
I think someone is happy...?
*Incorrect*
*He hopes everyone can remember to be happy. Life sucks, it's a fact. All we can do is flip life the bird and be happy anyways*
*Keeps whistling*
*Damn*
*Blakey's meaning is so much better*
*Cuddles tighter*
*hugs Adra* Cry if you must. I know I will.
(I must go, it's 2.22 am, time zones suck! We should all live on a space station or something!
Will ded later.
Good night, all of you, and sleep well and have a great day!)
It isn't that easy to remember
When people are telling you you're worthless
And you have no friends to hug on
...
I should go
(Bye bye Tia...)
(We're always here for you, Adra. Don't forget that.)
You're not worthless, Adra!
*needs sleep*
(As mentioned before, life sucks. You can do one of two things. You can sit there and let it suck, let it consume you and ruin you. Or you can make an effort. You can smile right back in life's laughing face and make it wonder why, why does she smile after all I've thrown at her? You can take life by surprise and make it yours.)
Hey El.
And that is the mentality of option one. I'll be going now, rather late. 'Night everyone.
*hugs El tight*
*holds El while she cries*
El you are beautiful. Thank you.
*huggles El and Sil*

I LOVE BUBBLE RAP!!!
POP! POP POPOPOPOPOPO!
