Thinking up the idea:
- Think of an idea.
- Lie in bed and think about the idea some more.
- Dismiss idea.
- Walk around house. Do menial tasks. Allow the mind to wander.
- When the mind has wandered around to an idea, stop doing menial tasks and pay attention.
- Write it down.
- Read it over.
- Change it.
- Lie down on sofa. Let idea form a story.
- Dismiss idea. Hates idea. Idea is stupid.
- Decide to write from the headlines. Switch on news. Read newspapers. Look for inspiration.
- Ebola, eh?
- Brand new idea. A plague that wipes out most of humanity! The few survivors come together under some vague supernatural (religious?) pretence.
- But evil people have also come together! Drama! Conflict!
- Realise your idea is The Stand, by Stephen King.
- Read The Stand, by Stephen King.
- Go back to original idea, decide it's good enough.
- Congratulations! You now have your idea!

(As I stated above
I dropped scissors on my foot
And I was like, blanked last night
But I'm talking to you and rhos so I guess I'm okay ^.^)
(How big were the scissors?
I'm so sorry.
:-) )
(They were quite big
But I'm tough
I punched a wall the other day
And don't apologise ^.^)
(Ouch,
That's cruel to the wall... ;-)
I will apologize if I so wish)
(I can be a cruel person
And okay then ... I accept your apology)
(I have to go now, goodbye!)
(Byii viv!)
I want to give Dylan another hug... He's so warm... And strong...
I know I shouldn't say this, but I actually feel kind of safe in his arms...
(*huggles death*
I would say something but it wouldn't do anyone anygood
So I'm just going to huggle)
(*sighs* well im off to college now
be on later)
*Huggles back*
Want to see how I feel in a song?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGHfIR6PK7M
The overall mood of this is just me...
Bye Penguin...
*stumbles in*
*hugs Danni*
*stays there*
That song is beautiful, Danni.
*walks in covered in metal*
(Hello, Vivanus. How are you today?)
(Metallic)
*looks around*
Typical...
(Time zones...)
(Still...)
(I know...
*hugs Viv*)
*raises an eyebrow*
I saw the following on Tumblr.
All my OTP's, sitting in a tree
Ho-mo-se-xu-ality...
I'm pretty sure I died laughing.
How're you all? :)
Anybody here?
(Aagh! I forgot my password, I had to change accounts, reboot, verify, and change my password to get back on...*sigh*)
*step over^
Can I help you?
Hi, Vivanus! :)
And no, I'm fine. Do you need help, by any chance?
crud I've gotta go
Sorry :/
*poofs*
(Bye)

Hey, Viv.
I'm an emotional wreck. What should I do?
I dedicate this page to all veterans. Thank you so much for the sacrifices you made for us.
Salute the ones who died
The ones that give their lives
So we don't have to sacrifice
All the things we love.

What's wrong Tia?
(*hugs Tia*)
Tia?
*sigh*
*pokes her head on* schooool...
Hi Sil
Vivvy!
*tacklehugs*
Hello.
Oomph
*huggles Sil*
Hi.
(Oh this should get interesting)
*snaps his head up*
*gets to his feet*
Hello.
(MATTYYYYYYY)
(Oh wait...Matty and viv...at same time...um..
Let's all get along!)
(Hear hear!)
Hello, Sil. How are you?
(Viv...)
Um?
See this is my problem.
What should the problem be, according to you Viv and you are just friends.
*shakes head*
(@Tia: have you tried chocotherapy?)
(Hello, Matex. How be you?)
*narrows eyes*
Friends?
We're engaged!
*spikes bristle across his armor*
Viv i do not RP.
Hello, I am me, not a character.
(@Viv Doesn't help with everything, I'm afraid.)
(I see.
*spikes retract*
So are we talking about Sil TC or TA?)
((@Tia: shock therapy then?))
((Or is that illegal?))
@Tia: *hugs* :/
I have a few solutions:
1. Try listening to music that you like, while lying back and at least trying to relax. Then eat some chocolate. :P
2. Do those things, and after you've gone to a state of not-being-so-emotionally-wrecked, think about what you could do (realistically) to fix the situation.
3. Talk. Talk to people you trust, let it all out. It'll help, trust me. :)
And if those don't work, well-
Would hugs do? :)
The author as you all so fondly call it.
I come here as myself.
I roleplay using ** but i am not a character or anything. So you can forget about being jealous unless you're after Jai.
(wbvvvvvvvd)
That's too bad, it would have made for a fantastic RP...
(Bye, Em!)
(((Sil, email))
(I'll just be ghosting now...)
Then what, may I ask, was your point in commenting at the moment that you did?
I have zero interest, sorry.
I don't like the idea of the engagement either, but that's beyond my control.
If things are as separate as you would have me believe, why should you not like the engagement?
@Viv: if that was directed to me, it was to alert anybody who cared that I would be, as I said, be veryveryveryveryveryveryvery distant. *nods*
As i would have you believe?
No, i dont believe they are seperate at all, however my opinion is not popular.
Sorry internet..lessons. Right..we should talk
(Not to you em)
Matex, you said " i am not a character or anything. So you can forget about being jealous unless you're after Jai."
This would denote a separation of characters and authors.
Okay.
Words.
No i merely mean that your so-called character can stop being jealous about me because im not here to RP and take Sil from Viv.
That doesn't mean it doesn't make me uncomfortable, or that i agree with these seperations of characters.
(@Sil words convey ideas, feelings.)
Sorry, probably not clear.
I understand the definition of having a distinct "character", i just dont believe they are as seperate as everyone would like to believe. They still exist on your heads.
1) So-called?
2) I'm not worried in the slightest about you breaking up Vivilente.
3) So Sil TC should reflect Sil TA, is that what you are implying?
*is here is just lacking words*
(Guys, from an outsider's perspective it looks like you're arguing over Sil.)
*hugs Sil*
You're amazing you are!
*wraps around her*
(Sil, did you get my email?)
*shakes*
Not should; does, in most cases. Even when people are unaware of it.
It's not really important though, i offer my thoughts as an explanation, not in attempt to convince anyone.
I don't like it, but whatever.
I'm here to let you know I have no interest in being the object of your jealousy and feeling any worse than I do, thanks.
I had intended to offer an olive branch, i figured a friend of a friend would be my friend too. But it has become apparent that's not the case.
@Tia in a way they are..
Okay, for outsiders;
Viv x Siltc
Matty x Silta
However Matty doesn't believe in a seperate ta/tc thing.
(Sorry i have skipped words, should say *shakes head*)
I'm afraid that you are mistaking my wariness for hostility.
Thats a very blunt way of putting it Sil but sure.
I imagine i'll just leave soon because people are going to get their backs up, so that ought to be fucking great.
*hugs Matty* don't leave..
(We can all be friends!)
*pulls Sil and Viv and Matex into a hug*
*wraps around them*
(We can all be friends!)
*pulls Sil and Viv and Matex into a hug*
*wraps around them*
There's no need to cuss.
Well I tried. Goodbye.
I'm sorry, Viv. You did.
*hugs*
No Viv..
I..I'm sorry...
I do cuss, I'm frustated, my apologies.
Well it was SUPPOSED to be goodbye except my iPod froze on this screen...awkward...
Ok, now it works. Goodbye!
I hope to see you again soon, Viv.
*huggles*
There's no need to leave but okay, good bye.
Again? I can't go on the internet without it freezing here I guess...so, as we were saying?
(Sorry, I have a quirky iPod)
(Rent and heating and water and food and TV license and taxes and insurance! How will I ever be able to earn enough money to live?)
*shrug*
My cussing wasn't even directed at you so I am sorry if that offended you, in fact that whole comment was about something else completely.
*hugs Viv and Matty TA's*
*hugs Matty extra tightly*
No problem, I just think that this blog could do with a little less foul language.
(Back to ghosting.)
Understandable.
I admit, i often get annoyed when I am ghosting and see people swear.
I suppose i forgot where i was.
I'm of two thoughts, firstly no swearing should be ideal, and two, if one must swear, don't just throw it around for emphasis, it should only be used to define a character, usually lowering that character in my eyes.
I disagree with the idea that it implies lowering someone, but fair enough; i see where you're coming from.
Usually that character lowers themselves anyway.
(And of course, you said "in my eyes" so thats not subject to my opinion anyways.)
*shrugs* its weirdly quiet.
I suppose Sil has disappeared.
((Just ghosting, but I'm just putting it out there that KesTC is the kind of character who swears all the time but I stop her from doing it here))
No I haven't.
Sil?
*hugs her tightly, worried*
Sil...
Aha. Just lost for words?
Well it's been nice talking, I must leave now. Farewell.
Sil...
*just hugs her, collecting the sadness that is emanating from her*
(Good bye, Viv! See you soon, hopefully!)
Nah. Being confused by maths. And melting. And I don't really see how I can contribute so I'm lurking.
Farewell Vivanus
Contribute? It was you who said we would talk here and you've barely said a word.
Maths is fabulous. Feel free to ask for help if you want.
Sorry...
Fractions..they make a smidge of sense
*pinches her cheek and bends down to look her in the eye, scowling*
You apologise too much.
Oh? What about them?
Matex? Sil? Hello?
Hello, Tia.
Correct me if i'm wrong but i believe you still haven't answered Sil's question from last night.
*smiles around the pinch* yes I do. Sorry..
Just...interacting.
Hello Tia
Indeed I haven't.
I like you more than I like most, Sil. As a friend.
Interacting fractions? *raises an eyebrow* well just let me know if there's anything i can do :)
(Sorry, 11 ignored messages are making me cranky.)
(Hello.)
*high fives Tia*
You're telling me.
*high fives Matex*
*sighs*
I get that regularly, it isn't fun. Sometime's theres nothing you can do.
I'm sorry if I ignore anyone..
Hello apostrophe where did you come from. You are not wanted in that word. Go away. *squashes the apostrophe*
*raises hand* like me?
Nah, you have school.
Just reply to people when you can
I don't ignore you Matty!
*squashes*
*raises an eyebrow* email, Silly
It's okay, Sil. Not your fault.
Defo never forgot to reply to email!
*hugs Tia gently*
*hugs Sil, very sadly*
Ummmmm sure, totes.
(Hello.)
(Hello, Sophia. How is your day going?)
(Rather boring. Your own?)
(Not good.
Not much I can do about that, I'm afraid.
I feel like my time is running out.)
(Time for what?)
*walk in with a briefcase*
(Hello Vivanus/Jag.)
(Hello)
*opens briefcase*
*pulls out a gun*
(Nothing... I didn't mean anything.)
(Hello, Jag.)
(I am aware that you did mean something, Tia.)
*looks at the gun with disgust*
*puts the muzzles into his armpit*
*empties the cartridge*
*begins to methodically disassemble the gun*
*throws the pieces away*
I'll be ok, Sophia. Always am.
*Suddenly pokes up behind Jag, seemingly out of thin air*
Whatchya got there?
(Hello, Blake.)
(Hey, Soph and everyone else. How're things in good old Blogland?)
(I am here my darlings ^^)
(Hello, Chloe. How are you?)
(I am great ^^
only had two lectures today
and I had hot chocolate XD
you?)
*smiles*
Mr. Soul, it's great to see you.
I'm simply disposing of a murder weapon, used by an assassin in an attempt to kill me.
(Hey Jag/Viv!)
(I am depressed.)
(Awww Soph :/)
(It is not a problem, Chloe.)
Hello Blake and Chloe. How are you today?
(I am goooood ^^)
Interesting. How's this murderer doing?
I'm good Tia, you?
Good.:)
I made him sign up for one of my anger management classes.
...Wbd
Take care, and I will see you later :)
*sits in bar*
*on her fourth cider*
*a wild Midnight Hotel appears*
Good morning, Blogland. I am here to say goodbye, because I am going to Disneyworld for nine days.
I am also here to drink and be merry with my friends!
*drinks*
*is merry*
(Hello, Clara. How are you?)
(Anni! how art thou?
have a great time!)
How do I feel?
Well, terrified, to be perfectly honest with you.
(terrified? why?)
Because I'm going to be flying on a plane for the first time in my life.
(*realises her comment saying Bbs never went through* *whoops*)
(really? taking off is fun...I laughed hysterically when I took off on my first skiing holiday with my old school
AND NOW I AM GOING TO CERN IN SWITZERLAND WITH COLLEGE)
(Hey Sil! how art thou?)
Congratulations, Inky!
*raises a toast to your health*
Greetings, Silente, my fine friend!
(hehe thanks *grins*)
*starts swaying in the bar*
*is pissed*
Speaking of bars, I recently remembered that Scapegrace owned a bar.
I would like someone to write a fanfiction with Trip and Scapegrace having a my-bar-is-better-than-your-bar war.
(that. is. a. great. idea!)
(Hey Flickz! I'm tired. You?)
(@Clara ...friend?
Also @Clara OH GUESS WHAT GUESS WHAT!!!)
*used car salesman voice* Yes, I have many great ideas, and you can find many of them at @ChartruseClara on Twitter!
(I am good ^.^)
WHAT, SILENTE?
TELL ME WHAT!
TELL ME, I'M SO EXCITED!
*begins violently buzzing*
(*hugs Clara and Sil*
Great idea, Clara.
2% and rain.)
*leaves*
(Hello, Silente. *hugs her tightly*)
(IN GRAPHICS WE'RE MAKING CD'S/CD CASE'S!!! WE GET TO CHOOSE THE BAND!!! IM MAKING BACKPACK OF TROUBLES!!!)
THE NOISE I JUST MADE IN REAL LIFE IS NOT SUITABLE TO TYPING.
OH GOODNESS. OH HEAVENS.
THIS IS AMAZING.
Have you written a post about it on the Be the Glue blog? You should do that!
Are all three of our names going to be on the back of the case?
Will there be a track list with a bunch of song names on it?
Will our logo be there?
OH MY GOODNESS.
