KOTW Paperback

Laydeeeez an' gentleminions, I present to you, the KOTW paperback cover.


And Tom isn't even FINISHED it yet...! There's going to be some colour stuff happening, and some cool silver effects added and things, but even as it stands now, this is a cover that's going to pop out at you on the bookshelf. For Tom is awesome.

Speaking of paperbacks, we're going to start gradually removing the short stories from the reprints, with the aim of collecting everything (including the Tanith novella) into one big book in the spring of 2014. There'll be lots of brand new stories in there as well, covering the entire series. So will we see a short story starring Mr Bliss, back when he was alive? Will we see Val and pre-Remnant Tanith fighting side by side once again? Will we even catch a glimpse of Skulduggery and the Dead Men at war with Mevolent...?

To be honest I haven't a clue. I'm just making things up as I go along.

Be here on Friday for the Tanith cover...

EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT

Annnnnd apparently I won't be revealing the Tanith cover until Friday the 23rd... bah!

Star Inkbright said...

HELLO!

Msd.

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

I REALLY RECOMMEND EVERYONE READING THIS TO OBTAIN A PIECE OF BLU-TAC AND JUST CARRY IT AROUND WITH THEM TO FIDDLE WITH.

IT'S SO ACE. C:

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

(I swear my piece is getting smaller, though.

What if it disappears? :O)

#ChaseForBookNine

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Anyone still on?

Star Inkbright said...

Yes!

I have nothing to do, so I'm attempting to do homework, with limited success at motivating myself. :P

#ChaseForBookNine

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

So you need motivation? Hmm......

Star Inkbright said...

I never really do homework on Saturdays. D:

#ChaseForBookNine

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Right is it just one bit of homework or lots?

Star Inkbright said...

I have multiple bits of homework, you know?

Okay, I've worked out that every week, I have loads to do in the beginning of the week, so I'm just like homework till nine o'clock when I get home, and then I have like none in the latter part of the week, so THIS week, I've been trying to do my homework in the end of the week and at the weekend (like, now. Yay) so then I don't get bogged down at the beginning of the week.
So none of it urgently needs to be done, but I have a bit, yeah. French, German, history, RS, English, maths, art. And that goes right the way to Thursday, so you know, no worries.

Plus I also have a birthday card I should be making, so if I suddenly disappear, that's what I'm doing. :P

How are you? :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

I'm fine thanks! How are you? Also well done for organising yourself, I usually do it last minute or first thing...

Snow said...

STAR I always, always, have 3 things on me: blue-tac, a pencil and a notebook

Chione Asahina said...

I was gonna say hi but I need to go shopping. I'll be back in a few hours so don't jinx the 3 words Silente.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Hey/bye I won't say those words (although the fact I was going to then you pop on is still creepy)

Star Inkbright said...

I never do it first thing. XD I'm into last minuting. I generally do it the night before, and also then you remember to take it to school the next morning . . . when I stop doing it the night before, that's when I start forgetting it and getting in trouble. XD

Being fine is good. :)

I'm fairly good, I guess. I mean, homework - MSD

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

Oops. Dad turned the network off. Comment didn't post in time. D:

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

Hi/Bye, Chi! :(

@Snow: Really??? :) I already knew you were totally ace, but you just got acer. O_O
I only just decided to start fiddling with Blu-Tack, to stop me picking at the skin around my fingernails.
It's working.
And Blu-Tack is ace. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

No star I was saying hi/bye to chio, I wasn't leaving :)
Also hey snow

Star Inkbright said...

@Silente: :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

I always get the feeling I could be really into rap if the opportunity happened . . .

#ChaseForBookNine

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

To rap? Okay. If I tried I'd probably end up spluttering and failing at it

Star Inkbright said...

Listening to it, I mean . . .

#ChaseForBookNine

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Ohh that makes a bit more sense :-)

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Why don't you listen to some rap music and find out?

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Brb gotta do something. :-)

Snow said...

I stick the pencil to the notebook with the bluetack :)))))

Star Inkbright said...

SORRY. STUPID INTERNET DISAPPEARING.

That's what I'm doing. :P
Or was doing, before the internet went. -_-

#ChaseForBookNine

Snow said...

c: watching get smart

Star Inkbright said...

@Snow: CLEVER. O_O

Damn. :O That was always a problem for me, pencils and notebooks being detached . . .

BLU-TACK CAN MAKE THEM SEMI-DETACHED!
EVOLUTIONNNNNNNN.

#ChaseForBookNine

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Am back now :-)

Star Inkbright said...

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Wait am I all alone now?
*looks around* oh. Well.

Star Inkbright said...

No, I'm still here. :P

Just distant.

And - *turns Silente DIAGONALLY*

#ChaseForBookNine

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Well the weathers nice... I could have a picnic. Even though I don't need food yet. Or much. I could...climb a really tall tree..? No. Too easy. Er... hmm...

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*turns back* okay star. Good to know I'm not all alone.
*walks towards a tree* *shrugs*
*starts climbing like a human instead of just jumping to the top *

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*carefully tries to climb the branchless trunk*
*is basically clinging to bark*
*looks down* oh. That's quite high..
*looks back up*
*finally reaches a branch*
*pulls self up and sits in the branch swinging her legs*

Star Inkbright said...

You could cut down a tree!
WITH A HERRING!


#ChaseForBookNine

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*looks down at star* that would hurt the trees though. You shouldn't hurt trees, they could squash you.
*looks around, absently stroking the bark beneath her fingers* hey star, what can bubbles/ you do? Like what are your talents?

Snow said...

CUT DOWN THE MIGHTIEST TREE IN THE FOREST.... WITH A HERRING

Snow said...

WE WANT..., A SHRUBERY!! *dun dun dun*

Star Inkbright said...

@Snow: *nods* :)

@Silente: I don't think I have any talents.
I can be awesome
I can float
I can pop and turn into a puddle
Er . . .


:P

#ChaseForBookNine

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Star I'm not cutting a tree down. I like trees.

Snow said...

NUUU STAR, YOU CANT POP!!! I'd miss you...

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Exactly! Although floating is cool...what can you do snow?

Star Inkbright said...

@Snow: :( *hugs*
Thanks. :) :) :)

Floating isn't.
You don't go anyway.
You just . . . drift. :P

#ChaseForBookNine

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Arg damn it. Got to go guys, BBS. Bye! :-)

Snow said...

I can turn into a tree at will and penguins follow my orders c:

Snow said...

Star Inkbright said...

Fours, Silente! :(

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

No? Okay then..

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

No don't leave!
*hugs her again, gentler * hey

The Grave of a Coward said...

*stops crawling*
H-hey . . .

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*stops hugging her and starts tickling her instead*

The Grave of a Coward said...

EEEEEE!
*begins wriggling around*
Stoppitstoppitstoppit!

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Mwa ha ha ha
*tickles her more*

The Grave of a Coward said...

EEEEP!
*tries to fight Silente off with a stalk of seaweed*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Eww! Sea water weed!
*jumps back quickly* *eyes wide*

The Grave of a Coward said...

*stands up*
*brushes self off*
*looks at the seaweed with mild satisfaction*
I knew those Seaweed-fu lessons would come in handy one day. Much like all those night classes on re-upholstering furniture and making fondue.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

That's mean. You can't use sea weed, from the SEA WATER, on a vampire.

The Grave of a Coward said...

Tickling is mean. You can't use tickling on someone with DIGNITY.
*stomps foot*
*trips*
*rolls around in the dust*
Ow!

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*laughs* you deserved that
*helps her up*

The Grave of a Coward said...

*leaps to her feet*
I grow weary of this! Let us have a grand adventure, Silente, you and I!
*scampers off towards town*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*sighs* oh god
*follows annika*

The Grave of a Coward said...

*skids to a halt on a hill overlooking town*
*raises arms*
*like I'm about to call down fire from Heaven*
Here, we reign.
*runs down the hill towards a clothing store*
Firstly, we need costumes!

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Costumes
*looks down* what's wrong with my dress?

The Grave of a Coward said...

*skids to a halt*
*slowly looks at Silente*
*looks her up and down*
*the looks back at her face*

. . . Silente, if you saw a woman walking down the street, dressed like you are dressed, would you say "Ah, there goes a woman who goes on adventures!"
No.
You would not.

*strolls through the revolving glass doors to Herod's*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*sighs again* fine.
*walks through the door*

The Grave of a Coward said...

Pick something you wouldn't mind getting into a car crash in, and then we go!

*grabs a black blazer*
*black slacks*
*black Doc Martins
*a crisp white shirt*
*and a red scarf*
*vanishes into the changing room*


*comes out wearing a plaid duster*
*a fedora*
*a ruffled white shirt*
*and bell-bottomed jeans*

We're good to go.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Well you are. I hate shopping, I suck at it.
*looks around at the racks of clothes* urg shopping.

The Grave of a Coward said...

Well then. Allow me to assist you.
*grips Silente by the shoulders*
*turns her around once or twice*

*deadly serious* Can I assume that you strongly resemble your profile picture? Unlike me?

*wonders if I should have a me profile picture*
*not just a Doctor Precocious one*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Well I'm a one hundred and thirty three year old vampire frozen at the age of twelve. Does that help?

The Grave of a Coward said...

*vanishes into the racks*
*returns with a two-layer black skirt*
*tall, see-through black stockings*
*a pair of black high-tops*
*a long-sleeved, dark-red, velvet shirt*
*a filmy see-through black shawl*
*a red cord for your hair*

Here.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*looks terrified under the pile of clothes in her arms*
Do any of these have pockets?

The Grave of a Coward said...

*sighs heavily*
*takes the skirt*
*departs*
*returns with an identical skirt*
*except it has a bow*
*and pockets*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Fine
*trudges off to change*
*takes a while*
*come out*
I hate clothes
*a lot of it is askew*
Why do you get docs? Why do I get high tops?

The Grave of a Coward said...

*spreads arms*
Look at me! I look absurd.
Leave me my Docs, if nothing else.
You look . . .
*tilts head*
*squints*
You look . . . cray-cray fab?
*shudders*
*bounds out the door*
Let us be off!

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*sighs heavily *
What happened to paying annika?
*tries to straighten her clothes and hair up*
*puts serum in pockets*

The Grave of a Coward said...

*waves a careless hand*
Fear not, Silente m'dear, my father's uncle's sister's cousin's brother's hairdresser's yoga teacher owns the store.

*stands on the sidewalk*
*looks around*
*searching for adventure*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Great so were getting arrested then
*walks over swinging her arms*
*has straighten up her clothes*
*is working on her hair*

The Grave of a Coward said...

Silente, it is not an adventure if there isn't a risk of getting arrested.
*adjusts glasses*
Think before doing, look before stepping, and observe everything. Do you see an adventure anywhere?

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*closes eyes*
Well someone's being robbed over there
*points to the wall with two people behind it*
There's a vamp over there
*points* and...and a pot head to your left about 5 metres away
*opens eyes* so which one you going after?

The Grave of a Coward said...

Hmm.
*strokes chin thoughtfully*
Does the vampire have red hair and a giant spider?

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Red hair yes, spider no. Although he does use serum. Although....
*takes a deep breath in*
*takes a step back* its him.

The Grave of a Coward said...

No spider, then it's not . . .
*sighs*
*shakes head*
*then notices Silente's reaction*
Silente?

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*shakes head* never mind, it doesn't matter
*starts walking the other way*
*towards the wall*

The Grave of a Coward said...

Uh . . . huh.
*follows Silente*
*I look absurd*
*like a plaid bat*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*jumps up to the top of the ten foot wall*
*looks down at the their and the girl*
Let her go. Now.

The Grave of a Coward said...

*at the base of the wall stand two people*
*wrestling over a purse*
*one is a short girl*
*with blond hair*
*and a t-shirt with Pac-Man on it*
*and she is trying to tug a big black purse away from a boy*
*about seventeen*
*he looks like a British punk-rocker*
*with a lot of black lipstick*
*and black nail polish*
*and eyeliner*

Boy: *looks up*
*shocked*
How did you jump up there!?

Girl: Help, he's got my purse!

Boy: *looks shocked*
What?

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

I said let her purse go. Now.
*jumps down from the wall*
*lands in front of the boy*
Or else.

The Grave of a Coward said...

Boy: But I didn't!

Girl: Give me my purse! Give it!

Boy: It's not your purse!
*looks panic-stricken*
It's MY purse!

Girl: Don't be an idiot! Let go!

Boy: No!

Girl: Let go!

Boy: No!

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*looks at both of them*
Who purse is it really. Don't lie, I can tell when you lie. You heart beat speeds up when you lie.

The Grave of a Coward said...

Girl: It's MY purse!
*looks up with tears in her eyes*
Of course it's mine! Look at me! I was just walking through here, all alone, when this vicious brute attacked me!

Boy: What!?
*looks horrified*
I just snuck back here for a cigarette break! It was you who darted in like a little blond wildebeest and stole my bag! Didn't you? Didn't you!?

Girl: It's MINE!

Boy: No it IS NOT!



*by this time, I have finally managed to drag myself up the wall*
*and am now sitting there on top*
*breathing heavily*
*and vowing to go to the gym*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*grabs the bag* shut up! Both of you
*glares at them* Annika, look through this and tell me what's in it please
*throws the bag up to annika and turns back glare at both the kids;

The Grave of a Coward said...

*rifles through the bag*
*removes four tubes of eyeliner*
*a chocolate bar*
*and a iPod loaded with Green Day and The All-American Rejects*
Ah-HA!

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Annika, that's not yours!
*looks back at the two kids*
Well that answers that now doesn't it. Annika drop the bag to me.
*grabs the girl in one arm*
*waits to catch the bag with the other *

The Grave of a Coward said...

*tosses the bag back down to Silente*
I suppose we know who the culprit is, now. Good show, Silente.
*produces a cup of tea on a saucer*
Well met.
*drains the teacup*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Oh god
*shakes head*
*hand the bag back to the boy* go, scram.
*grabs the girl more securely *
*jumps up to the top of the wall with the girl*
What now annika what do we do with her?

The Grave of a Coward said...

*smiles pleasantly*
Well, obviously, we . . .
*the music darkens*
. . . kill her.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Er anni? Maybe not KILL her. I mean, that's a bit....dark.
*looks around hesitantly for ideas*
*realises the red head vamp has come closer*
S**t. Annika do me a favour? Jump down. Take her. Run.

The Grave of a Coward said...

Girl: Take her? What do you mean? Where are you taking me?

Silence, heathen!
*squints at the red-head vampire*
Who is that . . .
Is that who I think it is?
*a smile spreads on my face*
*as I remember a red-head vampire*
*with a giant spider*
*and a scar*
. . . . Is that . . .

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

No. No that's not. That's definatly not, now go, quickly
*watches the red head* take her and yourself somewhere same. Now

The Grave of a Coward said...

Tell me, why should I go anywhere?

*jerks the girl's head closer to mine*
*whispers something*
*lets her go*

*she runs*
*she runs hard, she runs far*
*and she won't stop till she reaches Arby's*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Annika!
*grabs her round the waist*
*jumps down to the side of the wall away from the vampire*
*whispers quickly* cause of the few enemies I've made in my 133 years of life, he's the scariest and the angriest. Now go okay. Run
*pushes her gently after the girl* hide

The Grave of a Coward said...

*shakes Silente off*
Hmm. I know a bit about old enemies. I've got a few myself. You know, they say you judge a man not by the quality of his friends, but by the caliber of his enemies. I've always agreed with an admired that philosophy.

The Grave of a Coward said...

(If you tell me a little about him, I could play him for you, if you like. It looks like you're about to have a confrontation.)

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Annika! Leave. Run! If he sees you with me your dead! And he's definatly seen me. He will follow. Go.
*pushes her again*
*stands in front of her*
*listens to the sound of approach in footsteps * TO LATE! Hold on!
*grabs annika securely *
*runs as fast as she can away from the wall*

The Grave of a Coward said...

*sighs heavily*
*continues drinking tea*
*as I'm being dragged along*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

((He's the vamp who turned me. After trying to rape me. I met him again after I'd changed. I slapped him in front of his friends, saved a girl from him. He got pissed. Killed my whole family. I've been avoiding him for years))

The Grave of a Coward said...

(Alright. Would you like me to play him then? Just for now?)

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*comes to a sudden stop*
*puts annika down*
*looks at her sternly* stay!
*runs back a bit closer to the wall*
*leans against a tree as the red head approached*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

((Sure))

The Grave of a Coward said...

*sitting on the wall*
*legs crossed at the ankles*
*watching in amusement at the scene around the tree*
*he wonders who the one in the ridiculous plaid duster is*
*but he doesn't wonder for long*

*hops down*
*stretches*
*and decides to make his move*

*strolls to the tree*
*calm and collected*

We-ell, fancy meeting you here.
I do hope you're not trying to hide anything from me.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*glares*
*says in a sickly sweet voice*
Hello. Your looking as ugly as usual. How are you? Still a idiotic dick?
*smiles up at him*

The Grave of a Coward said...

Ouch.
*clutches chest*
You wound me with your harsh words. I do hope you're nicer to those people who've been protecting you from me.
*smiles sweetly*
What were their names again?

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*flinches slightly*
*puts on her poker face*
People? You know I run alone. I'm not a people person.
*smiles up at him* humans and sorcerer's, they all hate vamps.
*moves back from I'm slightly* any way I've got stuff to do..

The Grave of a Coward said...

*snaps fingers*
Oh, damn. Isn't it funny how that works? Every time we bump into each other, you have things to do. Well, I have things to do too, and killing you is right up there on that list, between getting lunch and picking up my dry-cleaning.
*perks up*
*sniffing the air*
Though . . . you're not alone, are you, m'dear?
I can smell plaid.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*flinches again* your senses are screwed up. Your crazy. Leave me alone. Go back to your pathetic life.

The Grave of a Coward said...

My life's not all THAT pathetic, now is it? After all, I have the satisfaction of having turned you, and countless others. I have friends; friends who are loyal to me, and will do whatever I ask them. Hm.
Though, you did slap me in front of them once.
*grimaces*
I didn't forget that, by the way.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Good. You deserved that. And more. Anyway.
*turns face away* stuff to do.
*turns back* places to be.

The Grave of a Coward said...

*his smile twists into a snarl*
*and his face becomes something frightening*

Don't
walk
away
from
me.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*flinches and jerks away* back off and leave me alone.
*her mind flashes back to that first night, the echo of the words she spoke*
*shakes her head* no. Not again. I'm leaving this time.
*starts to stalk the other way, but not towards annika*

The Grave of a Coward said...

Don't walk away from me!

*he's at her shoulder in a split second*
*seizes her arm*
*and slams her against the tree*

I did not come here for a simple "Nope, too busy to die today!"
I have been trying to kill you,
for years now,
and it's going to happen.
Today.

*he snaps out a straight razor-blade*

Of course, I could just snap your neck,
but I prefer to do things the messy way. Don't you agree?

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

LET GO OF ME!
*kicks him swiftly between the legs*
*pushes him away*
Leave me alone! You know the rule! No killing another vamp. Now crawl back to you god forsaken hole!
*starts to walk away from him and, as a side effect, annika*

The Grave of a Coward said...

*I'm beginning to get uncomfortable*
*I peek out from behind the tree*
*see you leaving*
*and frown*

*meanwhile*
*he gasps and bends double*
*clutching his crotch*
*it's a long moment before he can speak again*
*and his voice is a little higher-pitched*
Maybe I can't kill you,
but I know people who will.
You'll never be safe again, Silente.
I'll have every hit man within 500 miles knocking down your front door!

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*walks away from him pausing only to look over her shoulder*
Good. Then I can be free of the blood and pain you've put me through. No more regret. No more images of my dead family, friends or even delivery men. Good bye. There's nothing for you to hurt me with now.

The Grave of a Coward said...

*watches her leave*
*growling gutturally in the back of his throat*

I wouldn't be so sure, Silente.
I wouldn't be so sure.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*snaps out phone*
*texts annika*
Is okay. Am safe. Meet at mcd's

The Grave of a Coward said...

*checks phone*

Hmm.

*strolls out from behind the tree*

What's an MCD, I wonder . . .

Vampire: Erm . . .

*waves a hand*
Yes yes, I'm fine, thank you.
*disappears down the winding streets of town*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*changes direction and starts walking to Mac donalds*
*take a seat inside*
*realises she is shaking*
*frowns and sits straight looking round to calm her nerves*
*wonders what is taking annika so long*

The Grave of a Coward said...

*finally arrives at McDonald's*
*brushing feathers off my clothes*
Damnable pigeons!

*enters*
*and looks around in surprise and disgust*
*having never been to a McDonald's before*
*sees Silente*
*slides into the booth opposite her*

Well then.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*smiles at annika* hey. You okay? You want anything?
*looks out the window making sure red head hasn't followed her*

Star Inkbright said...

*watching :)*

#ChaseForBookNine

The Grave of a Coward said...

No, I'm afraid being swarmed by pigeons has somewhat dampened my appetite. Besides, judging by the state of the menu, I have no doubt that I would be better off eating this table.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*smiles* yeah probably. So, where to now.


((Are you planning on making HIM come back?))

The Grave of a Coward said...

(No I am not. Though, Star! Come join us, if you like! I may have to leave soon.)

Well, I daresay that was a splendid adventure. Though I've ruined my fabulous plaid coat.
. . . Something tells me it shall not be mourned.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

((Okay then.)) No, it most likely won't be mourned. Back to the clearing?

The Grave of a Coward said...

Where you lead, I will follow
Any anywhere that you tell me to
If you need me
You need me to be with you
I will follow
Where you lead.

. . . Sorry about that. Anyways, lead on. I-

*cell phone buzzes in pocket*
*my face darkens*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*what's wrong?*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Why have you stopped talking? What's the matter?
*looks around* is someone here?

Star Inkbright said...

I should be doing homework, or making a birthday card, and I'm doing neither, I'm reading, but I might join in, idk. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

The Grave of a Coward said...

*flips open cell phone*
Hullo?

Voice: Is this Clara Crowley?

*shoots a look at Silente*
*then at Star*
*then at the rest of Blogland*

*very very quietly* Yes.

*the voice on the phone and I begin exchanging fevered mutterings*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*looks at star*
*mouths* what's happen in?

The Grave of a Coward said...

*flips the phone shut*

I . . . I'm sorry. I have to go.

*peels off the plaid coat*
*leaves it on the chair*
*begins to exit the McDonald's*

Star Inkbright said...

*looks back at Silente* *mouths 'Something is happening'*

#ChaseForBookNine

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Annika? What's wrong?
*frowns* anni?

Star Inkbright said...

Oh. :(
Well, I do hope you enjoy your goingness.

#ChaseForBookNine

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*gets up and grabs her arm before she leaves*
*looks her in the eyes* is something wrong?

The Grave of a Coward said...

*blinks*
Huh?
. . . Oh. I mean . . . oh. Nothing's wrong.
*smiles faintly*
Nothing's wrong.
I just have to go.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*hesitantly let's go*
Well okay then...do you want your coats or?

Star Inkbright said...

@Annika: I would advise taking your coat. Or I'll have to carry it.
Or she will.

#ChaseForBookNine

The Grave of a Coward said...

No, no, that's fine.
*dazedly wanders out the door*
*across the street*
*and out of this comment thread*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Okay.... so hey star...
*glares and picks up the plaid coat*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

5 or so hours counts as a few right...

Star Inkbright said...

Fours, Annika . . . :(

*steps away from coat* Hey.

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

It does count as a few. *nods*

#ChaseForBookNine

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

In that case she should have finished shopping hopefully...

Frozen
Frozen
Frozen


YO CHIO!

Star Inkbright said...

:(

Didn't appear to work.
*waits for her to pop up and make me look like an idiot*

#ChaseForBookNine

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

I don't think it worked....chio? You alive?

Mary Contrary said...

Maybe somebody else referenced Frozen at the same time? That way, her Frozen-senses might have trouble navigating? :P

Also: Hi!! :)

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

DAMN. D:

MAYBE IT ONLY WORKS IF WE EXPECT IT NOT TO. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Hey! The fact that it didn't work is very worrying...

Star Inkbright said...

Maybe her Frozen senses have been eaten. O_O

#ChaseForBookNine

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

That can't be it. I expected it to work yesterday when we were talking bout vamps knowing their true names and what would happen...

Mary Contrary said...

Like, if Frozen is a magnetic force, and Chi is like, a nail or something - if you have two magnets attracting at the same time, from opposite sides, with equal strength, your nail won't move. It might spin, I'm not sure. But it won't be move toward either attractions, because it has an equal pull in both directions. ^^

Alternatively, she might just be too far away from Blogland, so she's not within the magnetic field OF the frozen referecenes?

#ChaseForBook9

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Either:
She doesn't have internet access
Her Frozen senses aren't working for some reason
Some things happened to her

Star Inkbright said...

@Taia: OOOOOOOOOH. O_O

THAT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE. :O

Hi! :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Mary Contrary said...

Hey Silent! I'm sure she'll be alright. Maybe she's working or sleeping or out or busy or something?

@Star: Hooray! :D
And, HI! :)

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

HI! :)

How are you? And Silente?

#ChaseForBookNine

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Me? I'm fine.. you?

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Wbd

Star Inkbright said...

Good, thanks. :)

I sound stalkerish but I have been wtching I just havent commented because I'm at drama all day so I haven't really had time.

Mary Contrary said...

... If it's the former of my magnet analogies... I'm trying to figure out, would the nail spin?
Only, it must be a little unsettling if every time two people talk about Frozen at the same time and you just start spinning around in circles. :P

If the...
Hm.
Idk.
If there was current through it, and it was a coil of wire rather than a nail, I'm pretty sure that it would rotate... unless both magnets were facing with the same pole to that wire? But as a nail with no current through it.. *frowns* I have no idea.


I'm good, Star - THanks for asking. :)
