And here we are, coming in late (as usual)... The winners of the strapline competition. So many cool entries. A lot of similar ones, and unfortunately that meant we couldn't put those in the final ten. There were lots of "Burn, Baby Burn!" and suchlike, which would have been so cool to see on a cover if we'd only had one entry for it...! I love the winning entries, though, so a huge congratulations to everyone who took part.
And the winners are...
Hugo Peach
Evan Jenkins
Harriet Langley
Tom Wood
Jack Holton
Ashan Ali
Laura MacKenzie
Nigethan Sathiyalingham
Phoebe Ryall
Megan Smales
All the winners receive two signed glossy prints of the cover with their own strap line. Awesome.
Oh, and to remind you, the comments section below is NOT for spoilers!

ARGH
That's right, Alexis... Touch it. Touch my left butt cheek.
Riiiight
Zath check your Skype...?
I am leaving ok? Can we please have MATURITY? Good god Derek is more mature then you, Dylan and he has the attention span of.....nothing.
SPARKY: yes. yes i do:)
DYLAN SERIOUSLY
STOP PRETENDING TO BE ADRA
Eld - DUCT TAPE SOLVES EVERYTHING
*TWERKS FOR SPARKY*
FUCK YAAYYYEAHHHH!
I just want to point out that this is a blog for the author of a children's series, albeit a father mature children's series
Okay Zath. I shall impersonate you.
c:
I've checked, Sparky... There's nothing there?
I am suddenly terrified.
#ChaseForBook9
Dylan Silver I don't care what you do but you have to stop being Adra.
It's literally against the law.
You are literally breaking the law right now.
yes it does doesnt it Dau:)
*duct tapes fake adra to a random tree. cuts down the tree and places it on mars.*
Dylan.
Do not.
JUST DON'T.
DYLAN STOP IT BEFORE I SERIOUSLY LOSE MY EVER LOVING MIND AND LET JUSTARIA OUT AND DESTROY YOU NOW GO AWAY DYLAN NOBODY WANTS YOU HEAR
DYLAN FUCK OFF OR CHILL THE FUCK OUT, THERE ARE ACTUALLY SOME PRETTY YOUNG BLOGLANDIANS, FOR FUCK'S SAKE. CHILL THE FUCK OUT, OKAY?
Ta bbz, luv u long tymz
OH GOD THIS IS.
Now I feel like writing up a list of Blogland Laws
Reminds me of the time I wanted to create a hierarchy. And a Dictatorship that would be eventually overthrown by the people
Good times
*twerks for Javier*
Yeah babeh. That's right.
STOP
JUST STOP
EVERYONE
THIS IS GETTING ANNOYING
#ChaseForBook9
Nix, that isn't me. -_-
Psst, guys
Don't feed the troll. Even if the troll is Dylan
DYLAN!
DYLAN CUT IT OUT!
STOP PRETENDING TO BE PEOPLE!
ESPECIALLY NOT MILES!
I got that Adra, cheers
Dylan. I dont even know who you are. SO it hought that was a bit mean to duct tape you to a tree on mars without even introducting myself.
Hi Im Eld.
i dont feel so bad anymore. stay on mars
^ OMG ELD I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.
DYLAN FOR THE LOVE OF GOD STOP BEING LIKE THIS
THIS IS THE EXACT REASON WHY I ALWAYS END UP GETTING INTO FIGHTS WITH YOU
YOU ARE JUST SO GODDAMNED ANNOYING AND SERIOUSLY NOT DESERVING TO TALK TO ANY OF THESE PEOPLE
MSD.
Now, at the request of Sparky, reposting the house rules.
Okay guys, welcome to the Requim Ball, being held right in Chester's basement.
There are no bloody fucking Rippers in my treehouse.
My treehouse is decked out with so much protective shit that no one dangerous could ever get near, let alone inside and down to the fucking basement.
If you look over to the north corner of the ballroom you will see the buffet.
Don't go fucking nuts.
You get food on my new floor you will be on your knees scrubbing it away while I whip you.
If you look in the south corner you will notice a rather lovely assortment of couches, beanbags, and a general area of chilling out and being antisocial.
If you look to the east corner there is a station where you can play music and I swear to fucking god if anyone spills a drink there or starts a fight over music you will be evicted and dumped in the lake in your fancy dress.
You have been warned.
And the west corner along with the centre of the room is obviously the dancefloor. Try not to trip.
AND NO DUCKS ALLOWED. ANY DUCKS CAUGHT WILL BE BURNED BY MY BEST FRIEND, MY DEAR SWEET ZATHY BOY.
Party on, my friends.
what is happening? I'm so confused at the moment...D:
Well, I wouldn't be surprised.
No one likes me anyway, because my parents are dead. That's how it works at school, anyway.
Also at the request of Sparky, considering I have to ded, it's going to her.
Also to Nix.
Because they're my two best friends and for the first time in AGES, we're all on Blogland again.
Yay.
I'll yay to that
Thank you Dau *huggles*
-walks up the stairs in the mansion, goes to a separate room and closes the door, lays down on the bed-
DYLAN WILL YOU JUST FREAKIN GO AWAY? NOBODY WANTS YOU AROUND YOU ARE AN IMMATURE BASTARD WHO NEEDS TO FUCK OFF BEFORE I HURT YOU JUST GET THE FUCK OUT NOBODY INVITED YOU
Guys, come on
It's a party. Ignore things that annoy you, forget things that make you depressed, and just have a good time
*huggles Eld*
Nix is right.
Someone... Get the Toasters.
The most popular TV show amongst teenagers is Glee.
A bunch of misfits put together to do what they love. And that's what we do, I guess, but, once again, I've been pushed out.
By the way I cant switch my profiles yet as im on my iPod so when i get on the computer i will
*dances with Javier very happily*
Zafira I hope one of your family members die soon. Fuck you.
Alex that's because you we're being a dick. Don't act like this is unjustified.
I'm sorry for your loss- but that doesn't give you a right to act out and then when we fight back you pull that card. It doesn't work like that
*slow dances with Dau*
...Is no one going to get the toasters?
ADRA ilymtjlm okay <3
*gets toasters...?*
I assume these are normal toasters?
Oh, and hopefully last I'll say of this
Until everyone is having a good time like they should be, just click on the profile before any arguments break out
Come on Mist, I don't get the toasters. There are lessers who do that
Okay so Miles, being the totally awesome bro he is, gave me the dedication rights when I asked for them.
So forgive me if I'm a little rusty.
I dedicate this page to the spirit of Blogland. I dedicate it to laughing till we cry, warring with zombies, having a lake, holding a Requim Ball...
But mostly to the spirit. The friendship. The love.
Call me a sap, but I love it. I love the feeling I get from coming back and talking to you guys. I love coming back to my treehouse that I know will always be here waiting for me. I love getting e-mail from Lu or Flame asking how I am. I love being a part of this community, so when it comes to be times of fighting and hatred and downright immaturity...
I feel let down.
Derek is so proud of us. He talks about us being nice to each other and not bullying and thought I do admit the text yelling and fighting can be fun, but it gets out of hand and someone gets hurt. And that's sad.
Nooooo, Dau, they have to be unconscious toasters.
*tuts*
I don't understand the toaster thing
I'll yay to that one as well, Sparky
*raises glass* Hear hear, Sparky!
Oh damn I missed the toaster thing right
*hangs head in shame*
I.. have failed you.
And I'll second Nix's yay.
What the hell Alex? What did I do?! I went to bed and woke up to you being a dick! Ok? What the actual hell?
Yes. Yes you have, Dau.
But it's okay.
As long as the cows arrive on time, everything will be perfect.
*tacklehugs Sparky*
Beautiful inside and out, you are. LOVE YOU, SIS<3
*slinks away to the horses*
noooo! *hugs dau*
its all good. because there is free food. and yeah.
*slow dances with Eld*
*trips on dress*
*falls facefirst*
*wiggles on floor*
Zaf, it's not Alex
*raises glass* HEAR HEAR
Now excuse me while I write the next half of the ded...
Serious msd
Kay, Sparky!
And kay, Adra.
K Zath! *sighs* Oh dear....I have to be social only downside of being Grand Mage is actually being SOCIAL
The cows better be pretty goddamn special.
-mumbles- you should be a grand Mage.
*helps dau up*
you gotta get up gotta get back get back up. you gotta get up gotta get back get back up. you gotta get up gotta get back get back up. you gotta get up gotta get back. GET BACK UP!
*should NOT
Yeah.
Otherwise not only will I need to get a refund, but we'll also be cowless.
Can you imagine that? Cowless.
DAMN THOSE LAZY COWS
OMFG
ZAF! i didnt notice your promotion!
CONGRATULATIONS! *hands milo*
MILO ALL 'ROUND
Yeah Mist?
Huh?
Take it up with Derek, Dylan. *looks at Zath in shock* COWLESS?! NOOOOO
COWLESS.
COW-LESS.
LACKING IN COWS.
WE WILL BE LACKING IN COWS
'OMFG'?
It's just a horrifying concept, isn't it?
*jumps onto a black horse, grabs a stick.*
YAY!
So, in follow up to that, do you think we could just all calm down a bit and have a nice, fun night?
If we all behave well, then it'll be an absolute blast, and why shouldn't it be? Everyone here is a friend. The arguments are small ones and, just to put things in perspective a little here-
This is a website.
It's not just that, though. It's Blogland. It's a home away from home. A safe haven. A sanctuary, if you will. It's built on a foundation of friendship and love and all that other fluffy stuff.
So I raise my glass to a good night that everyone can enjoy.
And Alex, I can't ever say how hard it would be to lose both of your parents, but I lost my father recently so I have some sort of idea of what it's like.
And I give you my deepest condolences and will be willing to provide whatever support you need.
So long as you act like the good guy I've seen you be.
...
That's the ded.
Oh
To be honest, I'm not even following the conversation at the moment. It's doing my head in
Oh, that was in reply to Luce.
"DAMN THOSE LAZY COWS"
Which was sort of an inside reference to something that I thought she'd said, but it was actually Sparky that said it and she's not exactly paying attention right now so yeah.
*curtisies* thank you Blaze thoughtechnicallyicantsaymypromotionisinabookbecauseikindaknowtheanswerbutiwontsayittilicannotbekilledonSaturaybytheGoldenGod
Double yay to that one Sparky
Sparky- HERE HERE
Double seconding Nix's double yay.
And I'd raise my glass too but I don't have any arms, so...
This cannot be...we CANNOT be cowless Zath! NO
You don't have any... What?
We don't have any cows.
yet.
*raises glass* HEAR HEAR *raises Adra's shoe* Adra says hear hear *sneakily places her shoe in a toaster oven*
Yeah, you missed a lot, Sparky.
So did I, apparently, because I don't remember losing them.
But it's okay!
Zaf- indeed. Indeeeeeed. *smiles*
(i wanna join as the doctor, and allons-Y to everyone....)
Would you like a jelly baby?
ALLONS-Y ELD! FANTASTIC, ELD! GERONIMO, ELD!
hehe sorry.
*tiptoes back in*
*hugs everyone*
#ChaseForBook9
*COUGH*
I am very happy with my promotion though!
*hugs Mara*
*hugs Mara*
I think there is only one solution. I must have sex with the last cow on the planet...
HELLOOOOOOOOOO.
I have absolutely no objection to Zath choosing the music. Let Zath choose the music all he wants. :)
And - I SHALL CAHNGE MY RPOFILE SOON. I NEED TO COMMENT TO SEE IT. :)
Also - EVERYONE'S HEREEEEEEEE IT'S LIKE A YEAR AND A HALF AGO WHAT THE FUCK GUYS. :P
*hugs*
#ChaseForBookNine
*collapses onto a bean bag and starts having a nap*
Zzz... No... No mess... Zzz... Chester... Noooooo...
I thought I'd mention I'm still here.
Just drawing...
Except for Eve the ROCK!
HI STAR!
Hi Ink!
*creeps up behind Sparky*
-draws a moustache and beard on Sparky-
I... Might as well...
-draws penis on her forehead-
...
STARRRRRRRR *attacks with hugs*
*dances with Javier still* (changing mine soon)
...
Did you even hear a word I fucking said?
*barricades self in a room*
*hides*
*TARDIS sounds in ball. steps out of the TARDIS.*
Hi!
*hides behind a cow*
*hides in lake*
*whispers quietly*
The cows are here...!
*rejoices*
...
Thank you Dylan, for totally making my completely excellent night shitty.
Thank you so much.
...
I'm leaving.
*takes a deep breath outside the door of the main hall*
Okay, let's do this...
*holds head up high and walks through the doors*
I just drew a fake penis and moustache on your face ON THE INTERNET. AND THIS WASNT EVEN THE REAL REQUIEM BALL. HOW DID I RUIN YOUR NIGHT?
You are the 10th Doctor? *grins* Zafira Kerias, Grand Mage of America. *offers hand*
Come on Sparky...
Just to interject -
drawing penises on anyone's face, real or on the internet, at anytime, can be pretty not very nice to the person receiving it.
EM!!!!!! *huggles* Welcome Em!
HELLO DOCTOR!
Was replying to an email, but here's my dress. Same as last year, coz I'm lazy. XD
#ChaseFOrBookNine
That was seriously the ONLY time she would ever come to Blogland. There was a special event. People were coming. It was going to be fun.
Do you have any idea how much it means to us older minions to see someone like her on the blog again after all this time?
I don't want to start another argument, so I'm going to leave it there, but PLEASE. Can you just say sorry to her?
I'll be switching mine soon and logging on for Alexis and Javier
Hey, Em.
Alex, do you want Hunter to spontaneously decide to blow you up?
#ChaseForBookNine
ahh. well hello there *grins, shaking zafs hand*
Ah! Dau! hello there!
Well.
The ball officially started three minutes ago.
Hi, Em :) *waves*
I agree with Zath i havent seen Sparky in forever and that was just plain rude. Apologize.
Although, just blowing your legs off would be worse, as you would feel the pain . . . *muses*
#ChaseForBookNine
Hey Star!
Hey Em!
Sorry, still quite distant
*shakes the Doctor's hand* Thank you. Pleasure to meet you sir.
I'm sorry, Sparky.
I didn't know that you only came on once a year.
Hey, Cain.
#ChaseForBookNine
STAR I LOVE YOU.
HEY, EM! I told them all, earlier:3
CRAP, MAN, I NEED TO TELL LYNXIA :O
@Alex: She never comes on, like, ever . . . :(
Usually I try not to think about how old Bloglandians don't come on, though. When I do, I usually start crying. But meh. I cry more than the average person, I think.
#ChaseForBookNine
I've got to go.
I'll be back later.
Bye.
just Doctor, I insist.
hmm. it seems my photo cut of my head. that is not ok. And my new one is taking a bit to load... well this is a tad annoying. I will live with it.
Brb logging into the computer to do Alexis Javier and my profile picturea
You don't get it though, do you?
You guys are my family.
My sisters and brothers and cousins and aunts and uncld and everything.
Admittedly, I talk to some of you more often than others but you're all family.
And having someone draw a fake penis on my fake forehead in a fake ballroom at a fake party is very embarrassing if it happens the first time you show up in months.
And I've honestly felt stupid and foolish enough about myself recently, I'd rather not have superficial things like some frat boy wannabe being an asshole for no good reason.
*hugs Mushroom* YAAAAAAAAAAAY!
I THINK I ALREADY SAID THAT BUT STILL, YAAAAAAAAAAAAY! :)
ILY TOOOOOOOOOO. :)
TELL ME WHEN IT'S PUBLISHED. :)
YOU KNOW, WHEN I WROTE #ChaseForBook9 ON MY ARMS FOR LEEDS, IT WAS STILL THERE WHEN I WENT TO SCHOOL (it faded to purple and then stayed on for AGES. I was impressed. Admittedly, though, I wasn't exactly trying to get rid of it. XD), AND EVERYBODY KEPT ASKING ME WHAT IT SAID, AND THEN I TOLD THEM AND THEY WERE LIKE "Oh.", SO MAYBE IF I WRITE "In the Shadows" ON MY ARM EVERYONE'LL ASK ME AND IT'LL GIVE ME AN EXCUSE TO TELL THEM TO GO BUY YOUR BOOK!!!!!!!! :)
I'M SUCH A GENIUS.
#ChaseForBookNine
It's not about how often I come.
It's about what you do while I'm here.
*hugs everyone again*
#ChaseForBook9
*stands just inside the ballroom, taking deep breaths. Tears welling up in her eyes*
I... I can't do this... It's just... I thought I could... I can't.
It's the Requiem Ball and he's not here. It's his Blogiversary and he's not here.
*Her eyeliner and mascara starts to run down her face as the tears begin to fall*
I just can't...
*hugs Em*
exactly Sparky!
Lets just all have a good time? dance and drink fanta and eat skittles and the other strange stuff like that that we do here:) ok? ok!
exactly Sparky!
Lets just all have a good time? dance and drink fanta and eat skittles and the other strange stuff like that that we do here:) ok? ok!
*hugs Em*
I have to go sleep now... so I'll be back tomorrow :)
Em he IS with you sweetie *pokes her heart* right there. He always will be and you know he'd want you to have the night of your life. He lives on in all our hearts. Always will. Now come here *hugs Em tightky*
#ChaseForBook9
*hugs Sparky*
It's okay.
We still love you, whatever's drawn on your face. Don't let Alex/Dylan/anyone ruin it for you. Just ignore him. Thinking about it isn't worthy of your thought space.
And the only reason you feel bad about yourself is beacuse you're a shining star, and you're also a big ball of fiery gas, and balls are round and don't have necks, so they can roll around in mid-air all they want but they can't atually look at themselves. And from your vantage point all you can see is the blackness of the sky and the other stars. You can't see how brightly you burn.
But just because you can't see how awesome you are doesn't mean you're not awesome. If seeing is believing, then you technicaly don't believge in the existance of that invisible force called the wind.
*nods*
(I swear, I get better at saying that speech every time I say it. O_O)
#ChaseForBookNine
*waves to dau* BYE
*Hugs Em*
@Em: *hugs*
But that's where you're wrong. He IS here. We may not be able to see him or hear him or sense him with any of our human senses, but he is here. He'l always be here in our hearts. :)
*hugs*
Are you okay?
#ChaseForBookNine
Also - waterproof mascara???
#ChaseForBookNIne
Aaah so sad
Uni
*laughs at Star through the tears*
I forgot to put the damn thing on...
well... this is more like an awkward crying fest to a ball...
;-;
I missed something
I love you Em,
Oh gods
EM HELP
I CAN'T BREATE EM
You'll never love yourself
Half as much as I love you,
And you'll never treat yourself right, darlin',
But I want you to.
If I let you know
I'm here, for you,
Maybe you'll love yourself
Like I love you, oh...
*sings softly*
#ChaseForBook9
If my blogfriends are unhappy . . . I'd rather be helping them than be trying to have fun just for me.
It kills me when I read back over comments when people are really unhappy, and I can't do anything beacuse it already happened. It's like they're behind a glass wall and I can't break through it. So . . . more like a clear plastic wall.
I would rather be trying to help than be oblivious and happy, and I would much rather be trying to help than unoblivious and happy, is my point.
Yes.
So nobod feel bad for being sad. I can't promise to help you, but I can promise to try my best to help you.
#ChaseForBookNine
Em... *tackleglomps*
i must dissapear.
BYE GUYS I LOVE YOU ALL<3 *huggles*
Allons-Y
Right I dedicate this page to our dear friend, Chase. Today would mark is Blogversary and yes he is no longer with us in a physical form but he will always be with us no matter where we go. Chase's memory will live on forever in our hearts, let it live. I dedicate to Emerald because we all love her even if she's a werewlf, and lastly to the ship, Chemerald. I still ship it,
#ChaseForBook9
:( FOURS, DOCTOR!
@Mara: *hugs*
That's what I feel like with you, a lot of the time. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
I think I understand what Pretend it's Okay is about now...
#ChaseForBook9
*sits down on a chair, softly dabbing her eyes*
I really didn't want to come today, I was worried this would happen.
Not even death can stop true love.
*hugs Zaf*
Thank you . . . It's an awesome ded. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Well you're here now so if I gotta duct tape you to a chair I will *waves*
*raises glass* HEAR HEAR.
*pulls Em from the chair*
*hugs* No- you were right to come. You shouldn't be alone. Especially not today.
Now come on. Dance with me. Because screw gender stereotypes. Please?
Thank you Star
*hugs Em tightly*
*murmurs*
What would you do?
What would you say?
How does it feel?
Pretend it's okay.
My eyes deceive me,
But it's still the same,
Pretend it's okay...
#ChaseForBook9
*smiles at Adra*
Can you just give me a few minutes, I haven't worn this dress since my wedding day so it's a bit stiff to move in.
*looks around at everyone*
You are all so unbelievable and I have never been so prouder to call a group of people my friends.
*sits on the floor singing Little Things*
*raises glass* Hear, hear.
*hugs Em*
*hugs Star*
*hugs Zaf*
*hugs everyone*
#ChaseForBook9
Glad to call you friend too, Em.
@Mushroom: *hugs* That's true. :)
@Em: *hugs*
Maybe it's like riding a bike. I mean . . . that if you fall off and hurt yourself, you start fearing cycling in case you fall off again, and what you need to do to kill the fear is get back on again. The sooner, the better, before the fear grows too much.
So . . . maybe it's good you're here. :)
Nothing can take your memoires of Chase away. They'll always be in your head. Coming back here won't destroy the memories of the first Requiem Ball. It'll just add new ones. YOu can always remember the first one. :)
#ChaseFOrBookNine
*looks around in wonder* This is the Ball...I hope Brave comes...He asked me to the Ball.
*sits beside Luci*
*sings along*
#ChaseForBook9
*hugs Em again*
I love you sister. We're here to be your crutch.
*hugs Zaf* It was true. :)
So the only thing you should be thanking me for is honesty. :)
@Adra: YAY FOR DISSING GENDER STEREOTYPES! :)
@Em: You're definitely worthy of our friendship. :) I'm probably not worthy of you, though. XD
I refuse to argue the point further, however, so like: *shuts up*.
*hugs everyone*
