He knows perfectly well how I feel. It'd be impossible for him not to, what with us living in each other's heads.
#ChaseForBook9
yes it was him but * doorway to ice fortress explodes * WHAT
Javier: If only Alexis was older...maybe he'll open his eyes and see light.
Alexis: I do like Coco but Momma says I can't date until i'm 15
DOES NOT MEAN THAT I STILL DON'T SHIP IT
* lokks at watch screen * penguin, are you there. * just fire appears. * no
*chuckles* Well figure that, Sherlock
And as for the post, I obviously won't be making it to any of the signings/events, but I will attend them all in spirit!
DOGGIES! [Waves to the doggies]
#ChaseForBook9
you laugh. they are all dead adra. everyone there!
Yes and I told you that you can't cage a demon forever. Yet you tried. You should have killed him when you had the chance
the overlord caged him. i was nearly dead in a cell remember
So god help me if Metru touches Alexis i will KILL you Sherlock
why are you blaming me for metru? zaf
But was the overlord not you as well? If I recall, you were the one pushing to be possessed by Metru. But it doesn't matter- you must grieve later. He will be coming for you, Sherlock. *throws holy water all over him*
ok, to clear. all that time i was dead in a cell. the overlord is a dark side of my mind that was released by metru. he was pushing to be possessed
not me
Alexis: i dont have a demon unless that changed
I don't want to lose you Alexis
Right then....let's not focus on who did what, then. We're here, now. And Metru will be coming back
but not for long with this * shows sword of the faceless ones *
Tbh if you need help I have plenty of characters I could change into that are more than capable of destroying demons. Or at least give them a run for their money.
Back btw.
Hmm. Well alright then. *picks up the bow*
((I will have to go soon- my dad and I are going to the cinema.))
Alexis: so just Nero and Metru we worry about?
And Lilith. *winces* She I do not want to get into a spat with, so...
i must go to my fortress to attempt to rebuild it. i will leave you to fight.
Alexis: why havent i been targettrd? If they wanna take iver they'll take me over because im magic too
if you are about to lose i will return and save you but otherwise i must be in antarctica
Maybe it's because you're so happy most of the time, Alexis. You're not as unstable as the rest of us.
#ChaseForBook9
Right- because we obviously can't care for ourselves, right?
And I don't know, Alexis. It might just because you're so inexperienced - well. Okay, perhaps not, but ... I don't know
HEY DEREK I'M MEETING YOU :'D
And I'm going by the train :') excuse me while I HREAGFPOFHFDH;WHFD;OS;D/N
[Sits in silence and contemplates the idea that passed through my mind last night]
#ChaseForBook9
Alexis: cuz demons cant hurt meeee!!! *hugs teddy bear closer* i hope Coco wakes up! I wanna tell him I came up with a name
im going to go meet derek
What's the idea, Fabi?
#ChaseForBook9
I'm not...
I'll have to go any minute. ///\\\
one more thing, metru will come and he will take over. * climbs into jet *
Nothing of interest to the roleplay. It's for the name-project, actually.
#ChaseForBook9
((I'll be back in 30 mins- 1hr. Bye!!))
#ChaseForBook9
Ugh. *rolls her eyes* Looks like the overlord is back, then?
Javier: Alexis you seem excited about the bear
Alexis: yup! Cuz I named him after Niccolo!
no hes not, just metru. im going to where im needed.
Ugh. *rolls her eyes* Looks like the overlord is back, then?
no hes not, just metru
*sighs* I must depart now. I shall be back in probably a little more than two hours. *waves*
Farewell. Good luck. Godspeed.
bye adra
((Bye Ari, and Adra when you leave.))
((I'm going to go work on the name-project now, and stop bothering you all, but I'll be ghosting distantly if you need me))
#ChaseForBook9
When you’re scared and it shows
Because you’re watching them grow
And travelling blows when you’re out of road
And when you jump up, the earth wants you back
Your resentment grows ‘til you’re all alone
But you’re so smart, how could they not know?
When you stand there in good humoured white
How do you do it?
You make it seem effortless,
When it’s all the stupid things
So overwhelming to me
Like paying my bills
Or showing up for work early
Or laughing at your jokes
And when you first said that anything goes,
Or a problem’s a task, disguised in work clothes
That’s when I knew that I had to move
Why do you do it?
Make it seem delicate?
When it’s all the stupid things
So damn confusing to me
Like talking it through
Controlling my temper
Like letting it go
Saying please forgive me
For laughing at your jokes
I have no idea what’s going on lately,
And I just wish you would come over and explain things
And I have no idea what’s going on lately,
And I just wish you would come over and explain things
And I have no idea what’s going on lately,
And I just wish you would come over and explain things
And I have no idea what’s going on lately
And I just wish you would come over and explain things
Why do they do it?
They show up anyway
When they know that damn well
There’s no room for promotions out here
And maybe it’s wise
And maybe I’m just stupid
For laughing at your jokes

(Sorry for random lyrics posting)
Also, sorry for poofing - pharmaceuticals.
NOt that I was particularly present, anyway. *shrugs*
Distant.
#ChaseForBook9
(( Hi Taia [hugs] ))
Wbd as well
#ChaseForBook9
Ppplllzzz come to Wicklow cause I rreeaalllyy want you to
HELLO EARTHLINGS!
#ChaseForBook9
Sorry for being a snob, Adra, Ari, Taia and/or whoever else was there that I might've forgotten.
I'm not having the best week, tbh, and every little thing annoys me .-.
*hugs* Sorry :(
*goes to watch depressing videos of depressingness*
#ChaseForBook9
*hugs back* Hey... Fabi? *tilts head* :)
Hullo Niamh O' Neill, Salman. :)
If nobody makes me leave this spot in the next 3039 seconds I'd be thankful...
Distant.
#ChaseForBook9
[waves to all]
[hugs Mara tightly]
((Techncally Fabi's dead. But yeah.))
#ChaseForBook9
I am so scared Niccolo is gonna do something stupid and get hurt...
@Mara: *huggles* I can promise you're not alone in that. I hope you're feeling better soon. :)
@Fabi: Okay. Can I still be calling you Fabi, though? Dead-Fabi as a title might be a little unnerving. :P
#ChaseForBook9
Anyone who reads MC i posted a new chapter my second to last one besides the ones i am working on with Death and BJ
Sure, Taia.
Ok, Zaf, reading it now.
Wbd.
#ChaseForBook9
*stays alert still with gun* Ari could be back any moment so...I should be prepared in case Coco wakes up with Nero inside him
Ok seems no one's here. Will be back later.
I have returned from reading Zaf's chapter, but I seem to be unable to lift my arm this morning, so I should probably go ice my shoulder.
See you! [Waves]
#ChaseForBook9
Bye those who keft
Sympathy, tenderness,
Warm as the Summer,
Offer me their embrace.
Friendliness, gentleness,
Strangers to my life,
They are there in his face.
Goodness and sweetness
And kindness
Abound in this place
I am in love
With the things
That I see in his face -
It's a memory I know
Time will never erase...
*smiles* so true how Zaf felt at one point to Coco
Ffffffff-
Fishhook.
I forgot the email attached to this account no longer works.
Which means, among other things, that I can't join any new blogs.
Or, like, email.
Fishhook.

#ChaseForBook9
Damn Taia
Really Derek??
You HAD to go to Winchester whilst I'm on holiday.
I shall never forgive your for this.
*gives evils*
#chaseforbook9
OK those are some pretty cool dogs.
I'll be going to the Edinburgh Festival.
It's also highly likely I can go to the Bluewater and Southwark events. I'll definitely go to one, maybe both if I can afford it.
Also if this informal Dublin meet up ever happens, I hope to go to that one too.
All in all, that's quite a lot of events for the space of a month.
Javier: *quiet*
I may be Skyped at a Dublin event or Edinbourgh
Derek - why no Milton Keynes??? Or at least Cambridge? Especially because we were missed out in April when you were supposed to come. Come on Derek I need to come and see you again. This book is being released on my birthday! That's surely a sign. Please man come closer to me! And my fellow minions including leni!!!!!!
Im here
Maybe I can go to the Dublin one...
But if we're all meeting up next year, I might just wait...
#ChaseForBook9
Hi Zaf, hi Mara
[hugs all]
#ChaseForBook9
I am still working on going next year I mean it's either next year or the year after, I have an idea for Ameriminions who can't go but we need a person to be our contact
I'm back!
#ChaseForBook9
ARI!!! *still is on alert*
Javier: hey Ari
[Sighs] I can pretty much guarantee I can't go.
Hi Ari! [hugs]
#ChaseForBook9
Yeah, I'll never be able to go to Ireland just for a signing, even if it's the last book in my favorite series. If we happen to be going to Ireland at the same time as it, then I could almost definitely go, but the chances of that happening are like .1%
#ChaseForBook9
Hi everybody! *hugs back*
#ChaseForBook9
*hugs* mine are slim i mean it is possible but slim
Alexis: Coco hasn't woke up yet *giggles*
i can go to ireland next year
Yes, Becky! /cries/
I'm considering the London one in Kingston.
Unless it's talking about another Kingston.
#ChaseForBook9
I just can't wait till I get to college- I want to try to get into an exchange program in London and one in Aussie, so I can see you people on weekends and stuff!
#ChaseForBook9
and im going to most england ones this year
Ieni! [tacklehugs]
#ChaseForBook9
That'd be cool but I doubt I could do that.
*drinks coke* gotta stay awake
Is that you, Fabi?
Wbd - holiday packing.
Btw, Zaf, I saw your tweet about the Doctor Who thing and replied to it: it's not going to be listed
#ChaseForBook9
Yeah I saw we dont even HAVE the show they put it under
Yeah... Except I'm dead, which makes it rather hard to comment as myself.
Maybe I should just change my name back...
#ChaseForBook9
Could you be a ghost or another incarnation?
Idk, Zaf:/
#ChaseForBook9
Its okay someone from England/Ireland will tell the name
[Nods]
Whooooooooooo
[Floats around being ghostly]
#ChaseForBook9
I gotta go be back 2-3hrs
the new doctor who is announced on sunday!!
im from england by the way.
Bye Zaf [Waves ghostily]
#ChaseForBook9
And side note: assume Zafira is on alert beside Niccolo Alexis is laying next to Niccolo so if he should wake thats who is right next to him
*is gone*
[Nods]
Okay.
I'm from America.
#ChaseForBook9
I used to think
If I could realize I'd die
Then I would be a lot nicer
Used to believe
In a lot more
Now I just see straight ahead
That's not to say
I don't have good times
But as for my days
I spend them waiting
Crash sites keep me up at night
Impact, division
It splits in two
Directly underneath you
As for those things
That act as markers in your life
But in between you can't remember
And so it seems
That you've grown up and over me
And these silly things I like to dwell on
Test sites keep me up at night
Chainlink and metres
I talk to you
It's cold out there, but I'm telling you
I'm lonely too
Facts versus romance
You go and call yourself the boss
But we're not robots inside a grid
Text versus romance
You go and add it all you want
Still we're not robots inside a grid
Zeroes and ones

Sorry, poof'd again.
(And for more lyrics posting)
Had to go do things.
And then save some frogs and a newt from almost certain starvation/ possible dehydration. C:
Will poof again soon.
May be distant.
#ChaseForBook9
Hello! Sorry I disappeared! I'm here, but very distant :)
#chaseforbook9
Bye, Zaf!:( *hugs*
What part of England are you from, Sherlock? I'm from Bedfordshire:)
TAAAIAAAA!!!! FLORAAAAAA!!!!! *ninjaeroplanetacklehugs*
How're you two?
#ChaseForBook9
[hugs Taia]
Hello again.
#ChaseForBook9
west midlands
Hello Flora! [hugs]
#ChaseForBook9
Limerick :D :D :D :D
Thank youuuu
YAY I'M ALLOWED GO TO LIMERICK WOOOOOOOOOOO
#ChaseForBook9
HEY IENI!! :) *is ninjaaeroplanetacklehugged/hugs back*
I'm good, but also a little grr-y. :P
Trying to work out my email account issue.
I might just make a new Blogger account, if I can't switch the email settings without being able to ever check my email. :/
#ChaseForBook9
Yay Limerick!
[Lives nowhere near Limerick and won't be attending]
[Cheers anyway]
#ChaseForBook9
@Ieni: Thanks for asking - How're you? :) ^^
#ChaseForbook9
What happened to it, Taia?
#ChaseForBook9
*hugs Fabi back* Hi again. :)
Hey Flora! :)
#ChaseForBook9
@Fabi: Oh, a few months ago, it wouldn't let me sign in, for some reason, and just hasn't since. I tried the recovery thing at the time, and that did nothing either. I'd kind of forgotten about it, but it's been in the back of my mind since.
I know it'll cause problems at some point, eventually, so I've got to do something about it, really.
On that note, if anybody's tried to email in, like, ever, I wasn't ignoring you - I just couldn't read it. :P
#ChaseForBook9
So is that like Oxford? Or a bit more north? (I'm terrible at geography omg)
That's crap:( *hugs*
Well, I'm repainting my nails for the 3rd time today: I always get to impatient and they end up getting wrecked.
I'm also going to holiday tomorrow:)
#ChaseForBook9
Oh. [Frowns] That's odd.
#ChaseForBook9
north of oxford
Have fun on your holiday, Ieni!
#ChaseForBook9
*hugs back*
*laughs* I do the same. :P
I end up just not painting. My nails always get chewed down to near nothingness as soon as I get anxious/bored anyway. :P
And yay for holidayness! :)
Does that mean you won't be here next week, then? ^^
#ChaseForBook9
Oh, misread that. *Does that mean you won't be here for however long you're on holiday for, then? :P
^^
#ChaseForBook9
@Fabi: *nods* It'd been... awkward, in the space of time before I couldn't get on at all.
It just acts like my password's wrong, but I know //I// didn't change it, so, IDK. ^^
#CHaseForBook9
Oh.
:-/
#ChaseForBook9
AH! SORRY I DISAPPEARED AGAIN!
Like, I said - very distant (writing)
I'm good thank you!!
And wooooo for England! :D
And wooooooo for your holiday, Ieni! :D
#chaseforbook9
I am now icing my arm and typing with one hand, will be distant and probably replying to several comments before the one you think I'm replying to.
#ChaseForBook9
Hi people who are here! I'm slightly distant, reading an awesome book.
#ChaseForBook9
I have returned
Hello Ari and Adra.
#ChaseForBook9
Hello, Fabi. Curious- are you here, or there? Because... I think Sapphire is deceased as well
hello adra and ari
zaf will be back in a bit adra
Ugh.
Sad music is sad.
But upbeat music is upbeat. :)
(For more obvious statements, you may now catch me at andweturnedontheradio@yahoo.co.uk because I think I just managed to change the blogger thing without needing to sign into the broken email. So yeah. BUt will need addresses, because I didn't have many before, but now have none. :P)
*cheers*
Brb. Gonna see if that worked, and may disappear soon to eat. Before or after I return. ^^
#ChaseForBook9
Hello, Sherlock.
So do we have a plan? What's going down?
I'm...not sure. And yes, she is. [Winces]
#ChaseForBook9
Taia, do you want my address? I don't think you had it before either.
#chaseforbook9
well, i left everyone else to fight as i was needed in antarctica but i suggest we enter the demon world and blow them all up
Ok Taia.
#ChaseForBook9
adra, is it true your in book 8?
Hey Aretha! Hi Adra!
*still not back. :P*
#ChaseForBook9
I think trying to collapse or seal off the dimension is our best shot right now, if we can find someone to do it- it's not likely we'll be able to kill all the demons. We've only got three weapons, even if we brought in a ton of other people to help us. But before we try anything I think we should try to figure out the state of the world- if all the demons are already here, we don't want to seal off their dimension.
#ChaseForBook9
Yeah, it is.
And just... What, a nuke?
if we entered the demon dimension, we could reverse the polarity sucking all the demons back and then we could blow them all up
not a nuke but this. * shows small clock * a powerful bomb
True... I saw Lilith there- so that's one
Back. I think I succeeded. :3
@Flora: Only if you're willing to give it to me. :P
I don't think I had it, either. ^^
#ChaseForBook9
We pull them back... Like an implosion type thing?
How would we pull them back? I doubt there to be a button
is trip in book 8?
no but by disconnecting the anchor holding them here they would be sucked back. the only thing is the anchor would be guarded
Listen to Ari. [Nods]
#ChaseForBook9
But you saw her last night, right? Who knows where she is now? I don't know how they travel to our dimension or how long it takes them to get here, so she could still be there, but she might not. And if there are more demons here than there are there, we probably shouldn't close it.
#ChaseForBook9
Whoop whoop! *does victory dance with Taia* Yay for succeeding!
And okie dokie :) it's flora.mae.high@gmail.com
It's fine - I trust you with it :P
#chaseforbook9
Ok, I like your idea, Sherlock- but now I have to ask if the vassals the demons have possessed will be sucked into that dimension, too. That's a lot of life to lose, and a lot of people to condemn, and I don't think we can justify that.
#ChaseForBook9
well they would but a trip to the afterlife would bring them back.
Wait, Adra, why were you trying to get into that dimension anyway? And who took you there?
#ChaseForBook9
Taia, I emailed you.
And I think I should go now... Still one-handed.
#ChaseForBook9
((No, I don't think Trip is. Why?))
And of course, that would be genocide.
But, there seems to be sometime missing, the whole reason the demons want us- Chaos.
Bodies don't go to the afterlife when people die, though. If all their bodies were in another dimension and we closed it, they'd be lost.
#ChaseForBook9
Um... Nadir did... And I was going to drag Saccharine out until she told us what she had done to you and Niccolo.
Why would you do that?!
#ChaseForBook9
if spirits were brought back a new body could be fashioned out of the quantum device like mine was when i was killed by the overlord. demons are after chaos because it fuels them. if there is chaos that would mean they wont die, they will just sink deeper into the spirit world meaning they wont be able to attack again
Because I didn't know what else to do- because you two are my friends, and I wasn't about to let you both be killed
No- I don't think that's why they wanted Chaos... They already said that they were awakening Him, and that when he opened his eyes, he would lead them into a slaughter
We can't act like death is easily reversible... That's like asking for trouble.
Sorry, I'll go now. I just had to say that.
#ChaseForBook9
@Flora: YAY! Thanks! *cheers* :D
And, that's good to know. :P
@Fabi: Awesome, thanks. C:
*hugs* Bye!
#ChaseForBook9
Since Fabi deleted her post- 'that many deaths and then having so many people brought back would probably upset some sort of balance thing, right?' she wrote something like that. And it was smart! So I'm rewriting it!
Also, wouldn't remaking that many bodies be incredibly unreasonably tedious and probably not feasibly possible? There are 7 billion people on the planet, and we have no idea how many are possessed. And we don't know what they look like, anyway!
Sherlock, they said they wanted to awaken Chaos. Capital C. It's some kind of being, and I'd imagine unless we stop all of this soon it'll take over the universe or something.
#ChaseForBook9
hang on, when WHO opened his eyes
Don't be sorry, Fabi! And don't feel like you have to go! I mean, if your arm is hurting and that's why, go ahead, but don't leave unless you want to! *hugs*
#ChaseForBook9
Besides, we don't even know if their unleashed souls would be able to be compacted back into bodies like that.
What if we got someone to order them out of their bodies?
then go kill Chaos. im going back to help in antarctica
Right, wbd so I probably won't reply to any comment for a while - writingggg :)
#chaseforbook9
I got The Fault In Our Stars and Fallen by Lauren Kate in the library todayyyyy
#ChaseForBook9
Chaos is like darkness, Sherlock. It would be like killing the idea of evil... I don't even know if we would be able to kill him
Okay Flora
TFIOS- cry
Fallen- <3 Daniel
* in the distance * try the faceless ones. * appears in ruins of antarctica
I'd suggest that we try to make a deal with Chaos, but whatever it is is after the whole universe, and I don't think we'd have anything to offer that's more valuable than that.
Adra! *scolds* You can't just do that! What if you died in that dimension? What if you had all the weapons with you? What about the whole rest of the world? Fabi's dead too, apparently, and Saph- they're still in need! And if you were going to do that, you should have waited until the rest of the world was safe. Two people are not worth seven billion, no matter how dear they are to you.
...That said, I'm grateful for the gesture, not angry. I couldn't be. In fact, I might have even done the same thing. Just... Next time, don't risk yourself and the whole world because I'm dead. Someday we all have to meet our end, and we can't come back forever.
#ChaseForBook9
Hello again. :)
Hey, Dragona and Mara! *sneakyassassintacklehugs everyone*
#ChaseForBook9
We all will meet our end, it's true, but we need you two as well. And I wasn't about to let more people die when I couldn't save them. *shakes her head* I have known too many.
I don't even know about this Chaos guy, but let's just hope that he has ears
Why would we want him to have ears?
#ChaseForBook9
save yourselves
* begins rebuilding fortress *
Are we talking about the demons?
ALMOST HALF WAY THROUGH TFIOS
SHOULD I START CRYING YET OR
#ChaseForBook9
Sorry for poofing.
Hey Dragona! Hey Mara! Yay! :)
Ugh. More sad music.
DAMMIT SENNET CHEER UP.
... Oh, wait. He did. Never mind :P
BRB.
#ChaseForBook9
Hey Taia. ^^
Don't start crying- you won't stop.
Figuratively, let's just hope he listens
Why? What are we going to try to do?
#ChaseForBook9
* Chaos,s voice echoes *
Chaos: you cannot stop me.
i dont wish to. the others will but not me. now get out before i finish or i will kill you
*chuckles*
Hi everyone :)
*hums Case Closed*
#ChaseForBook9
Hi Mara! *hugs*
#ChaseForBook9
We're going to have to convince him to let the mages go...
and, its finished. it also now exists twice in a dimension, in blogland and antarctica.
For me there'll never be a...
Case closed
No matter what the verdict says
Case closed
Too many questions in my head
#ChaseForBook9
*enters destination room* which door? *appears in Chaos lair* what do you want?
How the heck are we going to do that? Shouldn't we try and think of something before we start yelling for him to come?
#ChaseForBook9
I just say Flump.
The word you say when you can't think of anything else to. :)
Hi Fabi! *hugs*
#ChaseForBook9
Oh. Oops. Didn't mean to get new page.
*thinks for a ded*
We aren't going to ask him to come to us, I'm confident he will in his own time
It isn't what I want, dear Sherlock. *gestures around him* I am merely a projection. My mind is awakening, you see- this is what I am capable of thus far.
[hugs back]
I'm not here, doing a lot of things at once and pretty much all of them require two arms.
#ChaseForBook9
where is your location then chaos, or are you a coward
Well what do you propose we do?
