Well... that was fun.
My first time on Twitter proved to be something of an avalanche. You know, in a "oh my god run run run" kinda way.
I'll be using it to tell little stories here and there. Some of them will be Skulduggery related, some of them won't- such as the cute little axe murderer story from Saturday night. Some of them may even be related to the series I'll be writing AFTER Skulduggery. Ooooooh! (But I don't know about this. I literally just thought of that right there.)
I'd like to be able to post stories quite regularly, but I'm not committing myself to anything right now. Neither am I going to be using Twitter in the normal way. Instead, I'll be typing with my toes.
No, wait, that's not what I mean. I mean, I have rules. RULES! And they shall not be broken!
RULE 1: I SHALL NOT FOLLOW!
I only follow two people, and both of those just happen to be attractive lady fighters. That's a pure coincidence, I swear.
My point is, I am not going to open up Twitter every day and see a thousand different streams of tweets from a thousand different people. This will EAT UP MY TIME, and I cannot allow this to happen.
RULE 2: I SHALL NOT RETWEET!
I've seen requests for retweets on Ronda Rousey's page, and people actually get annoyed when she doesn't do it. I'm going to cut this off at the knees before it even gets started— no RT's for me.
RULE 3: I SHALL NOT REPLY!
Again, people get annoyed if you don't reply. They think you're being rude or disrespectful. They think you're ignoring them. While all these things are quite true, replying to everyone is just impossible. Also, it will EAT UP MY TIME. And I need my time for doing the thing you want me to do. Which would you rather— that I write more books, or reply to your tweets?
No, I can't do both. I can't. Shush. Shuttup. Stop. You're making this worse. Quiet. Shhhhhhhhhh.
And here it is, the final and most important rule of all.
RULE 4: I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO BREAK ANY OF THESE RULES AT THE SLIGHTEST WHIM.
I have spoken.

You shall not eat the tree
* gandalf voice *
Hi, Mara! [hugs]
I'm distant, and just sick enough to stay home from school, but not so sick my mom isn't afraid to make me clean the bathroom while I'm home. :-(
Will be very distant.
Aw, poor you Fab! :(
Stupid characters... *mutters* Mollie had some energy juice and will NOT CALM DOWN.
I'm glad this character dies...
She's getting on my nerves...
I never get energy juice unless its lucozade sport.
Energy drinks are bad for your heart.
Sapphy! *hugs*
*scowls* Molliana Dust. Calm the hell down. What are... EW DON'T LICK THE GROUND!
Rawr-ey
ugh, I need more male characters in this fic...
AND I JUST WANT TO MURDER HER!
Lol! Bad Mollie *glares really evil glare*
Luci-Sometimes characters do that...
Saphy-Hi!
Mara-Mollie! Behave yourself!
I repeat the question.
So how y'all?
Im meh eden how are you?
[Scowls] The sink is disgusting. [Attacks with soap]
Attacks the sink, that is.
Grand.
Just got annoyed because I was supposed to be in a draw to go to a debate in Dublin, my history teacher five minutes before the draw, I call my mom she says yes, I tell everyone and they don't tell the teacher when he does the raffle so I can't win.
I really hate them right now.
Yeah... please don't attack me with soap.
Eden, I'm freaking out. My fan fic has to be finished by the start of school, and I've got 6 chapters to write in THREE DAYS
You'd better put off the MC then, Saph.
Good luck finishing it!
[Does not attack with soap]
Oh, that sucks Eden :( Poor you. But they'll be other debates. I like debating, you can insult people :D
Disappearing for a few minutes...don't want my iPod to get wet.
Thank you Fabi. I don't want to have to explain bruises caused by soap... my parents would give me weird looks
I know.
I'm a junior debater (1st years) but the senior debaters (3rd years) are awesome at it one of their arguments involved getting with the times and he was joking through out his debate and he said first humans had tiddly winks now we have xboxs, first we had long, bloody wars but now we have debating.
It was funnier than it sounds.
Bye Fabi! *hugs*
Mollie, stop chewing the squirrel.
Lol, I love the wars to debating :) My last debate was 'All Disney movies are shallow' and I was on the affirmative side. So you can iunderstand this, you need to know there are two big boys schools in this area are called Wellesly and Scots.
This debate was against Wellesly, and one of my points was 'Do you boys really see yourselves as fairytale princes? I'm sorry to tell you, those only exist in Disney movies, and at Scots.'
The looks on the Wellesly boys faces :D It was way funnier irl
hi guys!
I'm starting to really worry about Mollie...
Hi Stella! Nice to meet you, I'm Saph :)
Hi Stella! :)
*puts hamd on Sapphy's shoulder* Aren't we all.
MOLLIE STOP EATING THAT SHOE.
*hand
One of the debates we did was boxing is a barbaric sport.
Hi Saph, Maralie and Edan! Sorry, will be distant as I have a history essay due in 4 2moz that I have 2 do. =(
*EdEn, sorry!
Good luck with the essay Stella! Eden, we once did this really cool debate on 'Aliens should have equa; rights'. Funniest topic ever :)
Our debate topic for tomorrow is 'Beauty is only skin deep'.
NUH UH.
That would be an awesome topic. Beauty is only skin deep is quite a good topic. Are you for or against?
The aliens one sounds awesome.
The one we're doing on Friday is Ireland as 32 counties.
Against, Stella :)
I will die if someone agrees :/
Im going to punch something in a minute
Please don't die Mara! :O
oh, g2g 4 dinner, sorry! Bye guys!
HI MEL! What's wrong?
Bye Stella.
Bye Stella! *hugs*
Why Mel? :O
Bye Stella! *hugs*
Sapphy - If Mollie stops throwing fish at me I might survive... :P
If Alex stops calling me at half-past nine in the evening and talking with me for hours (So much fun :) ) I may get some sleep *rolls eyes* we have the funniest conversations
Well I have a 17 yr old brother who is arragant and has a bigger ego than normal and we always argue because he will say a cheeky or sarcastic or patronising comment to me that will wind me up and annoy me and I asked him to stop but he refused and then today in my kitchen my dad was giving us our dinner and my brother started copying everything I did which sparked an argument and I ended up shouting I CANT THINK OF ANYTHING NICE TO SAY ABOUT YOU to my brother and I was yelled at for 1. Starting the argument 2. Making up stuff like he was copying me and 3. Saying that he has no good qualitys . But I decided to tell my dad he doesnt listen to the way my brother talks to me and I got shouted at for making it all about me. WHAT? I dont get that and then a girl from whome I hate popped up on fb asking me about our modern studies homework and I was pretty anoyed so I was answering her with one word answers then she started exploding on me about how Im a bitch...so I swore at her told her to go to a place where the sun dont shine and ignored her.
And thats why Im going to punch someone.
Woah. That's.... a lot. *Hugs Mel* Punch me if you want.
*hugs back* thanks but Im cooling off now :)
*Hands Mel some ice* To help you cool off :)
Mel,
I know you were angry but never take it out on someone from your school it will only end up with you getting a detention or something like that.
I messed with this lad from 2nd and said things he said to me so I said them back and the pain in the ass told his mom that I bullied him so I have to appologise to that assholes mom so they don't go to the school and what's worse is she thinks her son is above me and so is she when he is really a filthy mouthed ass.
Ha thanks! *takes deep breaths* its not just today though I deal with this sort of thing on a daily basis :L but its not all bad I suppose compared to other peoples problems :)
I dont normally do things like that but I have reason to hate this girl shehit me in the gut with a football on purpose she swears at people and bullied my friend so .... I thought she deserved it but that sucks what happened with you eden :)
Thanks Mel.
Ah, some people just aren't worth your time.
Poor both of you. Life sucks sometimes.
And some people take up your time by threatening to fill the rest of your time with detention.
HEY GUYS!!!

Sorry I was gone I had to make paninis for my brother's lunches tomorrow.
"So who does most of the songwriting?" Jan had asked. "Or is it a group thing?"
"Oh, it's a group thing," Jan said in his slow, easy way. He'd picked up a Southern accent at the same time he'd acquired Buddism. "Cole writes the lyrics, and then I bring him coffee, and then Cole writes the music, and Victor brings him pretzels."
Forever,Maggie Stiefvater.
Hi! Back. :)
[Shrugs]
That was me explaining the entire project.
[hugs Mara]

Aw, hope you get better soon Fabi! *hugs*
Hiya Star! *hugs*
Hi, Zaf!
[is hugged] Thanks, Mara.
Hi Zaf! *hugs*
Hi Zaf.
*lurks in the shadows*
Hello mar.
Zaf is FROZEN in times like these i wish i was friends with an Elemental
Zaffy should light a fire.
But no burning down Ireland or houses.
Hi Mar! [Is Fabi] [Is pleased to meet you] [Is distant]
Zaf, I can't help you, sorry. [Is not an elemental]
Hey Zafles!
Apparently for Maths GCSE we have absoluteoy no coursework. :)
I can see the next too years of Maths stretching out before me, and they look almost exactly the same as the last two years. Me doing stuff in class and then never thinking about it till next lesson, then me doing the exam and getting a high level without much actual THINKING at all on my part. Being good at Maths equals easiness and not trying. On the contrary, being good at English means a whole lot of effort and brain-straining. Being good at English means SO MUCH HARD WORK. Being good at Maths means EFFORTLESSNESS.
The difference is shocking. Also is the different between English teachers and Maths teachers. Our English books have to be really neat and the marking is a two-way conversation between teacher and student; the teachers puts a lot of effort into making just the right comments, then we think about the comments and reply. My Naths book is so different. It's messy, scribbly, all my answers are bunched together (my friend describes the pages of my Maths book without sheets stuck on them as completely blue pages, as I write in blue ink), I have doodles and handwriting experiments, I have me fiddling about with words or explaining something to my friend in words or diagrams (a recent example is the words sMARAties, MARAshmallows and MARAshMARAllows in the centre of a page), I have fragments of coded language that say stuff like 'I don't get it' or 'I am so bored', I have massive chunks of coded language where I've veen writing down song lyrics, AND THE TEACHERS JUST DO NOT CARE. LAST YEAR MY MATHS TEACHER SAW I WAS GOING OVER ALL THE SQUARES (squared paper) ON EVERY SINGLE PAGE OF MY MATHS BOOK, AND HE JUST LAUGHED.
This probably says something about English and Maths. Dunno what. XD
Whoa... [Looks at big block of words]
[Tries to read, but brain disagrees with the idea]
Hey Im back! (I went for a nap) zaf! Hey! Lucky for you Im an expert in water and freezing water which basically means ice and freezing things :D
Hello! Has anybody seen Death? She feeling ok?
I get you.
I got 94% in maths but 73% in English.
Everyone did bad in English and my history teacher explained it well he said that English ( well the stuff we had in our exam) was solely based on the teachers opinion of our answers.
Plus my English teachers is and idiot who pronounces "three" as "tree".
*laughs* :)
And "they" as "dey"
She won't be here for a while. She's an Aussie.
Hi, Aretha!
I'm somewhat elemental! Lights small ring of fire around Zaf* *ice melts*
I get a 99-96 stat in English, the highest is 99-99. I get a 94-91 in Math, usually.
I hope she is okay. I wish I'd been up at three in the morning to help...
HI ARETHA!
I haven't seen her, but it's been Aussie-sleepy time since I got home from school . . .
Stats? WTH?
And we don't get percentages. Yet, anyway.
*laughs* Damn different countries. :)
I'm averaging a 7c in English atm and getting 7as in Maths, but the lowest you can get in the test is like 7c so it dun't really count. That make any sense to anyone? :)
Nope but being in a state of blissful ignorance is one I don't mind.
It's not percents, exactly. If you get all the questions right, you get a 99, there's no 100.
And the stats are fairly weird, even for Americans.
Oh so do you do it in percentiles mel.
Well....Landy isnt paying attention
*explodes the Bentley*
I'm hopeless at math, but my real life psychic abilities make me get the right answers anyway on multiple choice questions. Or I just do a lot better on tests than normal homework.
Hehe. NERDS ARE FUNNY.
Eden was talking percentages, I tink. He's Irish, you're American, I'm English.
We have the levels up to 8 before GCSE, but it spans the whole of our school life. We had these same levels in Year 2 for SATs, and now I'm in Year Nine.
SORRY FOR VANISHING!
Writing...
And trying to work out what I'm G&T at... :P
I also go to a private school, so a public-schooled American would have a different system.
Huh?
G&t?
Hello all!
Only we were like levels 2 and 3 in Year 2. Now, levels 5 and 6 and 7. :)
Gifted and Talented. Amongst the top in the country and, potentially, the world.
Hi, Luci!
Hi, Cali!
I am distant :)
I'm chatting to you guys, writing, and working on my freakishly talnented piano skills.
I am awesome.
Never bothered with any iq tests myself I don't like people saying I'm smart and I don't need it and besides I believe there is no accurate way to measure intelligence at the moment.
I totally don't get it, Star.
My one year of public school, I got a 4 in math, which makes sense, cause Inwas in fourth grade an about average for the class, and a 12.4 in English, which was like double or triple my friends' scores... I think it was the book report on Twelfth Night.
Hello world
I've never done an iQ test, either..
*still doesn't know why she's on the G&T register after at least nine years* hmm...
My school signed me up for this Gifted & Talented thing. It was great, but then I moved schools and had to stop :(
Let's just agree that school level systems are mostly ununderstandable? :)
I dont get iQ tests...
I've never had an IQ test. I wouldn't want to take one, either.
Star, English school systems are mental. Its true.
My friends in secondary school said they did a CTYI test in primary school but I didn't have that in my school so I was annoyed.
City
Test

Ok, [agrees that most school level systems are ununderstandable.]
What does CTYI stand for?
Ooh
Ooh
I tried a proper online history course but I fell behind and left it.
It was organised by an American college.
It would have been cool walking into history class with the degree you got ( it was a year and a half).
Centre for talented youth Ireland.
One of my teachers calls everyone mr...
And I was just thinking how cool it would be to have a lordship and just be like "hello mr "
"That's lord To you. "
And I'm babbling.
I dedicate this page to NJ I love her and she's going to let me meet Derek! Yay!!!
that would be funny Eden :)
Distant, capturing a Martian on camera.
Actually no, folding laundry.
Make sure you get him and send me his head.
Phaha
I was in the CTYI. I went to UCC. Did it for 2 years. It was kinda boring...
Msd. Not really here...
ONE DIRECTION ARE DOING THE COMIC RELIEF SONG
WHY DOES THIS EXCITE ME SO MUCH
Hey Mara,
I KNOOOOW LUCI!!!!!! :D
oh god. They really have taken over the world.
(btw, I have NOTHING against one direction. I am the peace maker between lovers and haters. Or at least, i'm the person who stands in the middle as people try to punch eachother...)
Gtg my mom came. Back.
Oh God. My babies. They're just.... Omigod. ASDFGHJKL I'VE GOT ONE DIRECTION INFECTION. They've grown up so fast... :') from the bottom of the stairs to the top of the world.
Directioner For Life. «3
Oh god
* sighs * here we go again...
Hi cat.
A discussion of one direction, I'd assume, Cat.
Oh... I would never have guessed... Thanks, Random...
You're very welcome.
I think everyon else has dissapeared...
Define everyone....
Erm, Luc and Zaf and Maralie.
So, not EVERYONE....
Jack says "Hello" to you all.
Right. Whos Jack?
Aaah i feel safe
Oh. Okay. Zafs still here.
Hi!
Everyone? Cat and I don't count?
I'm offended.
Jack is the person saying hello.
Hello Zafira!
Hey Zafira and Blog-related humans.
That was Jack
I guess not, Random...
...
If you could ask Derek ANYTHING in the world, what would you ask?
Did you give up on hitting yourself in favor of Jack talking?
I'm leaving. Bye all.
No... Cat's over in the other room hitting herself now... she gave me control of her blogland account for now. think theres any way taht theres any embarasing photos on here?
*yells at cat*
How many times have I told you about that!
So, jack, who/what are you?
Bye, calidae.
I'm a person- at least thats what I would say. Cat often tells me that I thought I was a man, but I was a muffin...
Im not really related to Cat by blood, but she seems to like me. In fact, I am her favorite. Her Favoritest! yeah.
Bye, Calidae Dark... Cat says so, too. Oh, told her you said not to hit herself anymore
Here she is.
Want to explain the man-muffin that stole your keyboard, cat?
