Wraparound!!

Glory be.

Tom Percival has blessed us with another stunning cover for Armageddon Outta Here, and this time it's something extra-special — a wraparound masterpiece...



We're going to release this as a poster for the bookstores, and we're planning on making it available to you guys too — hopefully along with all the other posters. I'll keep you, ahem, posted...

Heheheheheheh.

Oh, and as for who exactly everyone IS on that cover... you'll just have to read the stories to find out.

Hm... dedications.

Star Inkbright said...

((Star: WOAH, DRAGONA!!!! :O THOSE ARE ACE. :) :)))

Noelle said...

(I saved the green one and it's now the background on my computer)

Dragona Pine said...

Thanks, Star.



Hm... I think that I'll dedicate this page to toasted waffles. Just because why the hell not? You can't refuse a toasted waffle.

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

Hear hear!

NOM Ominous said...

How did you make them Dragona? They look awesome!

Dragona Pine said...

Adra, awesome :) It'd be cool to see what it looks like on your wallpaper. ^^

Star Inkbright said...

*eyes brighten* Plus toasted waffles are made in toasters!

#ChaseForBookNine

Dragona Pine said...

Thrust: It's rather easy. I use a programme called GIMP. I change the background to black on an image, then go into filter and choose a pattern - then edit the pattern until it's to my liking, then go into the colour balance (because at that time it's just black and white), alter the colours until they're right, change the colour curves to actually make the darkness darker and the lightness lighter, flatten the image, crop it a little, overlay in another pattern if I need to, repeat the above steps until everything's fine - then export it as a png file.

Dragona Pine said...

Ok, that sounds complicated... but it takes a matter of minutes.

Chione Asahina said...

Hunter, Silente, want anything to drink?

*eyes go to a polite kind of light brownish colour* What do you have, Chione?

#ChaseForBookNine

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

Vodka shots?
*grin irrisponsibly*

Dragona Pine said...

I'll probably just keep making the wallpapers - then you lot can just use them however you want, if you like them.

Star Inkbright said...

*makes a face at the mention of alcohol*

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

((Star: @Dragona: :)__

#ChaseForBookNine

Mary Contrary said...

@Dragona: I understood every word of that explanation. *beams proudly* :P

Also: Thrust! Hi! I think it's been a while? How are you doing? :)

Also: Hello again. :)

#ChaseForBook9

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

((Wb Taia))

Star Inkbright said...

Hi again Taia.

#ChaseForBookNine

Mary Contrary said...

Thanks Tempest. :)

... @Silente: Do you have a particular preference of Silente/Tempest/other? Only, every so often I realise that I'm switching between the two, (like I did just here, I guess) - not that that's a bad thing, at all, but I was wondering whether you, like, mind? :P

#ChaseForbook9

Dragona Pine said...

Does anyone want a background making, at all?

John said...

*Pops up out of a random shadow*
Hello everyone

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

I don't have any perticular preference. Here's my nicknames so far.
Silente, Tempest, Sil, Si, Storm or any you can think of.

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

Blake hey! Can you give Onzwa wings please?

John said...

I suppose I could, what kind of wings?

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

Er...what type of wings ARE there?

John said...

Well we could do feathered or bat like or skeletal ect

Star Inkbright said...

Bat wings would be cool. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

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

On a horse? Hmm...large black feather wings I think. Yeah.

Mary Contrary said...

Okay, Silente. I'll probably just continue to use them interchangeably then. :)

@Dragona: They're super cool, but I wouldn't have anything to apply one to, yet. If I ever DO need a background for something, I think I very might ask, though. :) ^^

*pretending that 'very might' makes grammatical sense :P*
*it DOES make sense, in the sense that you know what I MEAN, but, idk.*
*nods*
*ish*

#ChaseForBookNine

Nevyar Amberite said...

Looks like Crowley from SPN on the far right

John said...

Sure thing
*Forms the wings out of solid darkness*
There ya go

Mary Contrary said...

Hi again, Hunter. :)

I think I'd go for insect wings.
Idk. Often, they're all metallicky.
idk. Insect wings are just so complex and pretty. :)
Granted, they'd maybe need to be a BIT bigger than actual size, but... :P

#CHaseForBook9

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

Thank you Blake!
*hugs him*
*pulls away*
*realises she accidently put glitter on him*
Oh er sorry.
*tries to wipe it off*
*ends up putting more on*
No er this isn't working..

Star Inkbright said...

GLITTER!

*eyes light up to an orange enthusiastically*

Insect wings are all flimsy, though.
Maybe they need more glitter. *nods thoughtfully*

#ChaseForBookNine

John said...

*Looks extremely annoyed*
I'll get it.
*Shadows weave under the glitter, flinging it off*

Star Inkbright said...

*attempts to catch the glitter* *gets a few sparkles stuck on his glove* *blows them across his hand happily*

#ChaseForBookNine

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

*smiles*
Sorry Blake, I use glitter a lot and it gets..well..everywhere.
*runs over to Onzwa*
*jumps onto his back*
Come on then boy, lets see what you can do..
*kicks gently on his side and clings on*
*giggles as a gust of wind flows from under the wings*
Wheeeeee!

Star Inkbright said...

You are officially cool, Silente. O_O

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

*edges in, scared*

Star Inkbright said...

Hey, Zaf.

#ChaseForBookNine

Nevyar Amberite said...

Woot! I'm writing a story

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

Why thank you Hunter!
*sprinkles glitter around him from above*
*laughs and hugs Onzwa*

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

Hey zaf!

Mary Contrary said...

*watches Hunter's eyes*
If my eyes glowed orange to denote enthusiasm, they would be very orange, too. *nods*

... One of the kids in my art class was using glitter-glue for her practical exam work.
Since it was an exam, we were not allowed to talk, but when I saw it I could not contain my excitement and pretty much yelled "WHA- GLITTER GLUE..! OMFG. THAT- IS- SO- COOL. WOW."
And she just looked at me and grinned like "Hell, yeah."
It was amazing. :P

#ChaseForBook9

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Hai. *hides*

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

*wonders why zaf is hiding*
*swoops lower to the ground*

John said...

Is Zaf okay?

Star Inkbright said...

@Taia: Yay. :)
Orange is an enthusiastic colour. *happily flicks a piece of glitter* *frowns as it bounces off his hand* *couches down, examining ground, looking for it*

Star: @Nevyar: I'm writing a story to! :)
It's, um, about Hunter.
*nods*
I have over 60,000 words. Been going since October. I can't really write very fast, no. XD
@Taia: C: C: C:
GLITTER-GLUE IS COOL. :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

Maybe she's playing hide-and-seek.

#ChaseForBookNine

Mary Contrary said...

And then my friend, who finished about four times what she was supposed to do in the first two hours and had been wandering around and annoying the classroom assistant for the other almost-three hours, at that point, she came over and ALSO started spazzing about Glitter GLue, because it's GLITTER GLUE, y'know? Like, WOW.
And she ended up rubbing it over one of her ink-splattered hands. And then the first girl gave her a shiny, flower-shaped bead-sequin thing and she used the glitter glue to stick it onto her hand and pretty much just skipped around for the last twenty minutes of the day. xD
(Our actual teacher was not in the room at this point. Thankfully. :P)

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

Star: That sounds like it was an ace art lesson. :) :) :)
<3

#ChaseForBookNine

@Hunter: !!! :)

@Star: Yes. C:

Hey Zaffo. *huggles*

*explodes happily* DYNAMITE DYNAMITE

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

*looks at zaf*
What's with the mood swings?

Star Inkbright said...

Dyna might do what?

Explosions are so cool, though. O_O

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

@Silente: Probably more mood swings. They travel in packs.

#ChaseForBookNine

John said...

Wait a sec, ZAF IS MOVING! When did she get her mobility back?!

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

That sounds scary...

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

OMG BLAKES RIGHT!

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

I'm not in character of Zaf I'm too excited

Mary Contrary said...

@Star: That wasn't a lesson - that was the first of two five hour sessions of exam. :P
It was pretty ace, though, when it wasn't boring, or going badly. We were allowed to eat in there, so I bought Skittles. That was pretty great. C:

(Was I finished hugging by the time you exploded, Zaf, or am I now a cloud of tiny sparkling Taia pieces, floating slowly to the ground, because I am awesome, so my exploeded pieces sparkle and linger in the air for some time before reaching the ground?)

#ChaseForBook9

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

What's made you so exited?

Star Inkbright said...

@Silente: Mood swings are scary.
*eyes darken slightly*

Excited, ZafZafZaf?
What about?

#ChaseForBookNine

John said...

Oh, well... it was uplifting for a moment

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

I'm going to sing the Star Spangled Banner, USA national anthem.

Mary Contrary said...

@Zaf: Yay! Whatcha excited for? :)

#CHaseForBoo9

Star Inkbright said...

((SPARKLING TAIA PIECES! :D :D))

Star: @Taia: Well
you know what I meant. :P
And - that sounds ACE ACE ACE. O_O

#ChaseForBookNine

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

Your singing your national anthem? Where you singing it?

Star Inkbright said...

@Zaf: Well, good for you. *nods*

((Star: YAY, Zaf! :) *hugs*))

#ChaseForBookNine

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

At a hockey game, tis tonight so I'm so excited. Like bouncing off the walls

Star Inkbright said...

The poor walls. *looks concerned*

((Star: !!!! :) *hugs Zaf*))

#ChaseForBookNine

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

Cool!
*lands Onzwa on the ground*
*bounces up and down with zaf*
Are you nervous?

Chione Asahina said...

*blushes* I just realised...um...we don't have any food or drink in the house yet...

Star Inkbright said...

@Chi: *shrugs* That's okay.
It means you get to stock up. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

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

I can fix that Chi!
*runs off*





*comes back bogged down with bags of food, normal drinks, a 6 pack and vodka*
Tadaaa!

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

YES MY LAST DAY OF SCHOOL OFFCIALLY IS JUNE 13th!!!!! See because the high school and middle school have limitied air conditiioning, they decided to make students end June 13th, staff ends June 18th. They're using a special code to get us out. And I'm sorry but in my JCM classes its hot as hell, like 100F which is hot. So its easier for teachers to buddy up with someone in an air conditioned room then students taking finals. So technically I'm out the 13th, but I'm not going in after my finals are over. So either the 11th or 12th is my last day.

Star Inkbright said...

((Star: -_-
Whereas my school breaks up late July.
Fun . . .))

#ChaseForBookNine

Mary Contrary said...

@Zaf: Oh! Coolness! :) At a big, like, thing, - an event or something - or just generally speaking? :P

((@Hunter: :D/:P))

@Star: *nods* :)
It was. I was DREADING that ten hours so much, since year ten. It actually went quite nicely. I struggled at the start because my mood was all weird and I couldn't focus correctly, and I couldn't listen to music in order HELP that, either. The first two hours were all feeling kind of... Ew. But then I went for break and ate and talked to humans and it was nice, after that.
I was sat in behind somebody doing something with a large wooden box lined inside with mirrors. ANd the person sat on my table with me kept waving to me in the mirror. *facepalms* :P

#ChaseFOrBook9

Star Inkbright said...

Star: @Taia: :) :) :) I'm glad it went nicely. :)
:( for the weird house, though . . .

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

Star: *hours
*facepalms at brain*

#ChaseForBookNine

Mary Contrary said...

(MY LAST EXAM IS JUNE 23RD, SO I GET TO BE FREE AFTER THAT.)
(I think I finish officially sometime in May, but I still have to go to school. NEver really understood that. :P)
(Maybe it's just to make us think that we've scored two free months, when in actuality it's only a couple of months, really. :P)

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

((Star: Yay, Taia! :) :)))

#ChaseForBookNine

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Well we have a required 180 school days. Thats all. So we get out, plus we don't have spring break, or half terms. We just have a few random Mondays off, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter. Easter is half day Thursday off Friday then the weekend off Monday back Tuesday. Thanksgiving was Half day Wednesday back Tuesday. Christmas was longer, but we don't go back until Jan. 2nd or 3rd usually depending on when New Years Day lands

Chione Asahina said...

Omg thank you so much Silente! that means a lot *takes bags and starts putting the stuff away*

Mary Contrary said...

* only a couple of WEEKs

(although, my first exam is in I think about five weeks)
(I REALLY need to do revision)
(*glares at Tom Waits and Motion City Kitty for taking up all of my time*)
(Which is totally their fault. Nothing to do with me and procrastination and laziness. Nosiree. :P)

@Star: :) :) :)
Eh, the weird hours cleared up quick. :)
Thank you. :)
And- :)



#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

@Zaf: You don't have half-terms? HEck, when do you, like, SLEEP? :P

@Silente/Chi: C:


#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

((Star: Good luck, Taia. :)
And - :) :)

@Zaf: We don't have to take days off for snow or heat, so we pretty much stick to schedule. :P We have Christmas off, Easter off, six weeks in the summer off, then three half terms in the middle of each term. Like, one in each term, and three terms.
So we have more holiday than most people throughout the year, but less in the summer - most countries get ages off in the summer.))

#ChaseForBookNine

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

*shrugs*
It isn't anything Chi. I like helping, plus I have too much money. I don't eat. I don't drink (much) I live in a tree. I only need money for clothes and ingredients for the serum. The rest
*shrug* whatever I wanna waste it on.
*helps her put stuff away*

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Exactly its nicer out anyway! So its better and its warmer in America

Star Inkbright said...

((Star: I much prefer having our holiday spread out. :P
But meh.))

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

((Star: And holidays are best in cold times. You can just cuddle up under the blankets and be thankful you aren't outside. :)))

#ChaseForBookNine

Chione Asahina said...

I wonder where m- Where Blake is.

*finishes putting everything away except the ice-cream and vodka*

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

He might be eating? Or daydreaming..
*looks out of the corner of her eye at the ice cream and vodka hopefully*

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

I'm msd for a few until on the bus

Star Inkbright said...

((Okay, Zaf.))

#ChaseForBookNine

John said...

*Walks out of a wall*
Right here

Star Inkbright said...

((Be left back. Sorry, blame Star, not me.))

#ChaseForBookNine

Chione Asahina said...

*almost drops the bottle of Vodka* Oh god, please don't do that.

Mary Contrary said...

@Zaf: I missed your comment about the hockey game-- Awesome! Jepic! Good luck! Have fun! Whoo! C:

I like having our holidays spread out, too. I need a week every so often to social-detox. And also sleep. I lose so much sleep in schooltime. It builds up, and by the end of half-term I'm practically crawling through school. :P
I hardly managed through at all today. And I still have another week to go. D:

We don't get much heat here, (or THAT cold, either, I guess.), but sunny hotness in schooltime is the WORST, because, like, our school can't afford to buy curtains for the classrooms, so if the sun's in your eyes and you're blind and it's SO WARM you can't do a thing about it, unless there are other seats to move to. :P

#ChaseForBook9

Chione Asahina said...

Ok, Hunter, do you want a can or some Vodka, cause this is all we have.

*whispers to Silente* we'll dig into the ice-cream.

*grabs 2 spoons*

John said...

Aw I didn't mean to scare you
*hugs Chio*
Everyone like the house? You all helped make it so I would hope you do xD

*waves to Blake*
Hey again.

John said...

Hey Silente, save some ice-cream for the rest of us eh?
*Glares at her*

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

*whispers back* yey! Ice cream!
*grins and takes a spoon from her*
*grabs some shot glasses too*

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

*grins at Blake*
Maybe...

Mary Contrary said...

(('Be left back' Star, you're great. xD))

Even though you're not here. My hugs are stronger than your lack of presence. :P


The house is wonderfrul. C:

#ChaseForBook9

Chione Asahina said...

*whispers to Silente* That's not going to happen *winks and walks through to the living room and collapses on the couch, cradling the vodka and ice-cream*

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

*follows chi*
*plumps down next to her*
*cradels her spoon*

Chione Asahina said...

Hey btw everyone can come over, it's not completely finished, we still have some finishing touches but it's more or less done. I hope you guys will come to a house-warming party I'm thinking of having this weekend *looks at Blake* Is that ok?

John said...

*Sits next to Chio and grabs a carton of ice-cream*
*Starts eating it*
Methink it is
*Winks with a mouthful of ice-cream*

John said...

Of course it is, what's the point of having a house if we can't show it off to people?
*Continues eating ice-cream*

Chione Asahina said...

*opens the tub of ice-cream, grinning and pours vodka into glasses for her and Silente* This would be the best girls day in ever, if we didn't have the two guys here.

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

He's eating the ice cream!

John said...

Why yes Silente, yes I am
*Sinks into his shadow, taking the ice-cream with him*

ABK said...

Zombies? Known characters? UNknown characters? COWBOYS? A BURNING CHURCH?! CREEPY BIRDS, AND A THING?!?! HERMAGERD, BERST BURK EVR!

*grins and hold aloft her shot*
To friendship!
*downs it*
*licks her lips*
Mmmmm..yummy.
*whispers* psst Chi guess what I also got.

Chione Asahina said...

I don't know Blake, maybe to live in? sleep in? keep warm?

@Silente What? *ignores the fact that Blake is eating her ice-cream*

Amethyst Temerity said...

It's so... *cries figurative tears of happiness*
I need a better word than beautiful and magnificent to describe something like this...

John said...

*His voice comes from the floor*
Well yes... but other than that
*Sounds of ice-cream being eaten follow*

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

*pull another tub of ice cream from behind her back* this! And..
*pulls a DVD from behind her back*
*shows it to Chi*
Its Frozen!!!

John said...

*pokes his head out of the floor to look*
Oh god we're going to be watching that all night...

Chione Asahina said...

...I LOVE YOU SILENTE! *hugs her as tightly as she can* OMFG IS IT THE SING-A-LONG VERSION?!

John said...

Chio you don't need the sing along version, you know all the lyrics

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

Of course! As if I'd get one that wasn't!
*grins and hugs her back*

Amethyst Temerity said...

Hey everyone!

Where can we get Skulduggery posters?

Chione Asahina said...

Hey everyone! pre-party party at our new house xD we're watching Frozen and we have ice-cream and Vodka! and beer.

John said...

and NIGHTMARES so yeah come on over :D

Amethyst Temerity said...

Night mare? or Nightmare?

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

Hey amethyst!
*poors another shot*
*passes the ice cream and the DVD to Chi*

Chione Asahina said...

And yes Blake, I know, but for people who don't know the lyrics! Like you. *grins evily*

John said...

one word kind Amethyst, the kind people don't like and I love to give out

Amethyst Temerity said...

Oh! Can I have a nightmare?

Star Inkbright said...

((Back. ))

((Sorry, that would have been quicker if Star didn't get so distracted.))

((And no, Taia, I'm awesome. Star doesn't say left, she says right-left-diagonal-up-down-forwards-backwards-curvy-circular-multipledirections-invisibledirections-nonexistentdirections, because she's sad like that.))

Ice cream, please, Chione.
*glares at vodka as if to say 'I will beat you up later, when I am not being polite*
*except he's not actually saying that*
*but he likes to pretend he is*

#ChaseForBookNine

Chione Asahina said...

*puts the vodka and ice-cream on the table and rushes to put the DVD in*

*sits on Blake's lap so Amethyst can get on the couch if she comes*

Duck said...

GLORIOUS!!!!
THAT COVER IS GLORIOUS!!!
There is so much awesome stuff going on!
And it looks like one of the stories will feature COWBOYS!
MAGICAL COwBOYS!
And there's a silhouetted army in the background!
And beside Cain (looking awesome) there's are shirtless bulky man and some weird looking fellow.
He is weird looking. Probably because he is the only one looking at you...
Really weird guy is looking at me....
It's really weird....

Anyway.... IT"S GLORIOUS!!!!!

John said...

*Holds Chio closer and gets ready to be forced into singing along with every song*

Chione Asahina said...

*passes a tub of ice-cream to Hunter*

Have you seen Frozen before, Hunter?

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

*rolls her eyes at hunter*
One sec.
*runs off*
*comes back with some apple juice*
*passes it to hunter*
There you go.

Amethyst Temerity said...

Do you guys know where we can get Skulduggery posters?

Chione Asahina said...

No Amethyst, if I did, I would have one ;_;

John said...

Not a clue Amethyst, do you know where I can get the rest of the series in America?

Amethyst Temerity said...

...You buy it... online

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

@Blake amazon!
@amethyst no idea!

Star Inkbright said...

Nope.
*is looking rather amused at the proceedings*

*takes ice cream with one hand and apple juice with the other* Thanks, Silente. *laughs*

#ChaseForBookNine

Amethyst Temerity said...

Hey Blake! Where's my nightmare? I want one!

John said...

Kindle store is online...

Amethyst Temerity said...

I have them on Kindle too!

John said...

Amethyst, your nightmare will come later, when you try to sleep.

Chione Asahina said...

Well you're in for a treat Hunter, it's amazing. *presses play*

Amethyst Temerity said...

How come everyone wants posters but no one knows where to get them?

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

Your welcome hunter! Can have you glaring at our vodka!
*laughs and downs another shot*
*cuddles up again on the couch between Blake and hunter*
*giggles* man-wich!

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

Amethyst Temerity said...

*stares at couch*
How many people are squeezing in on that?

Careful Silente, Chio might kill you if you get to close

Ez: |So?|
Hunter: Come rescue me.|
|No.|

|Insult it to them.|
|They'll murder me.|
|Maybe I should be there. Wouldn't want to miss that.|
|Weird weirdos, Ez, weird weirdos. It's a weird way to go down.|

Deadly man-wich!

What ya doing there Hunter?

Amethyst Temerity said...

Hey Hunter! I don't think we've met...

Mary Contrary said...

Hiya Amethyst! :)
I have no idea. Sorry. :P

(@Hunter: Ah. I did wonder. But then figured the need to brb (blb?) (brldudfbccminb?) immediately left little time for the full expansion. But, fair deuce. :) You ARE awesome. As is Star. C: )
Welcome back, anyway. :)

Hi Duck!

*gazes at the screen*

((No, Star isn't awesome. She just gets influenced a bit. Like the sun makes the moon shine, but the moon doesn't actually shine itself, and the sun is much shinier anyhow.))

Hello Taia!

It kinda makes me wonder...Why doesn't Derek tell us where to get posters? I think he knows we will all want one after looking at that wraparound. Why doesn't he tell us where? TELL US DEREK LANDY! TELL US!

Mary Contrary said...

wbd.
Did I say wbd?
wbd.
because back to my Tom Waits-y painting.
because C:

@Hunter: *laughs*
*totally not reading your texts over your shoulder or anything. That would be plain rude. Or patterned rude, maybe. Glittery rude. THat sounds nice. If I ever have to be rude, I want to be glittery rude. Not plain rude.*
*nods*
*sparkles*

John said...

Sure, everyone's welcome

Chione Asahina said...

That would be Ez, wouldn't it hunter? And there are 2 perfectly empty chairs across from us...

Star Inkbright said...

GLITTERY RUDE! :D
Sure, Taia, you can be glittery rude. :D
*stares at her sparkling happily* :)
|Ez, there's someone here being glittery rude and they SPARKLE. :D|
|Wonderful.|
|I KNOWWWWWW. :D|

@Hunter: :(
But the moon is good, in its own right. Without the moon, the sun has nothing to reflect of off.
And also- the sun is just a small big floating thing with a lot of energy forging hydrogen into helium and a temperature of millions of degrees. It's not even SOLID.
The moon is solid. And you can stand on it, and humankind spent years on years on years thinking how amazing it would be if we could REACH it.
And every step closer, at the time, must've been amazing to witness. ANd when they finally did get there, that's mega-historic, isn't it?
Nobody wants to reach the sun. If they did, they'd be VERY dead.
But the moon is something that billions of people have dreamed and still do dream of reaching.
And I'll bet that, similarly, people could look up to Star, too. Maybe she is influenced, but she also influences. *nodS*
I think that's better than the sun. :)
(I mean, no offense to the sun and all. It's still great. Like, thanks for the provision of the necessary chemical elements that build up near everything that we know of. That's pretty important. But still. :) )

Chione Asahina said...

*downs a shot of Vodka then hugs into Blake as "do you want to build a snowman" comes on*

Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amethyst Temerity said...

...is there any drink other than Vodka?

Mary Contrary said...

*(and also the heat & light and general energy provision. Those are also important. Thanks, sun, for sustaining life o'er here. :) ) ^^

@Amethyst: Maybe Derek will tell us, if it happens?

@Hunter: *grins* :D

@Star: *laughs* xD Good. :) *hugs back*

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

*sings along to do you wanna build a snowman*

Amethyst Temerity said...

*decides to walk around the house*
*looks for other drinks and food*

Star Inkbright said...

((*scowls at Taia* No.
The sun is better.
It's shinier. -_-
Fuck off.))

((Star: *laughs* *Hugs Taia* You're amazing. :) :) :) :) :) :) Thank you. :)
*stores metaphor up in head to think about* :)
Although
if the moon wasn't influenced by the sun
then it wouldn't influence itself, would it?
And -
thank you, again. :)
But I'm sure no one looks up to me. XD))

Ez: *walks in* *mouths at Hunter* "Hello."
Hunter: *mouths back* "SPARKLES."
Ez: *rolls eyes*
*watches musical duitifully*
*mouths to Hunter* "What the fuck is this."
Hunter: *mouths back* "Shhh. It's quite cool. Look, there's that little girl, and that other little girl, and . . . stuff."
Ez; *facepalms*
Hunter: "DON'T COVER YOUR FACE WITH YOUR PALM! YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO SEE THE SCREEN!"
Ez: *nods, like riiiiiiiiiight* *obediently watches screen*

Mary Contrary said...

*smiles & sparkles happily at the sing-along fun* :):)

Star Inkbright said...

((SEE?
THE SUN IS NECESSARY.
AND SHINY
VERY SHINY.))

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

*waves silently to ez*
*mouths* hey!!!

Amethyst Temerity said...

*walks into kitchen*
*opens fridge and sees ice cream*
...where's the other food?

Star Inkbright said...

*glows and starts floating off the sofa in excitement* SPARKLY PERSON! *points at Taia*
Ez: *looks over, trying not to laugh but not showing it* *nods slowly*
Hunter: *mouths* "SPARKLES!"
"LOOK!"
"SPARKLING!"
*manages to levitate down a bit, still smiling happily*
"SPARKLES, EZ, SPARKLES"

Ez: "I know." *rolls eyes*

"But SPARKLES."

"Are you watching this film or not?"

"I'm watching the sparkles."

Ez: *gives Taia a mournful what-have-you-brought-upon-us look*

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

*mouths back at Silente* "Hey!" :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Amethyst Temerity said...

*leaves kitchen*
*walks back to where everyone is watching movie*

Mary Contrary said...

@Hunter: Sorry. :P

(@Star: *hugs back* Yeah. :)
And, maybe. But I think that could add to that idea, rather than deducting from it. Because then it's like a whole massive network of influence and I think that maybe that's what being a person is? :)
And- :)
And- Psshh. I do. :P )


*waves & smiles a 'Hi!' to Ez* :)

(("DON'T COVER YOUR FACE WITH YOUR PALM! YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO SEE THE SCREEN!" XD))

#ChaseForBook9

Chione Asahina said...

Yeah, i'll get you a drink.

Do you want apple juice like Hunter?

Amethyst Temerity said...

What drinks do you have?

Star Inkbright said...

*Ez:

Ez: *waves back at Taia* :)

((*nods at Taia :)
Yeah.
It's like . . . when two people are moirails, they benefit from each other, and they both need each other so much and it's just like AWWWWWWWWWW because one cannot really function without the other and it's just like - they're both they one relying on and the one being relied upon, you know?
It's beautiful. :)))

Chione Asahina said...

*gets up and rummages through the cupboards and finds pepsi and coke and chrisps and sweets *puts them into bowls and takes everything through and sits them on the table with extreme difficulty*

*sists back on Blake's lap*

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

*downs another pint*
*hugs a cushion to her chest*
*rests her head on the top of it*

Amethyst Temerity said...

*pours myself a cup of coke*

Chione Asahina said...

*takes another Vodka shot and rests her head on Blake's chest*

Mary Contrary said...

(@Hunter: Absolutely. The sun is a necessity, but the moon makes being under that necessity pretty great,too? :P)


*blinks*
GLOWY FLOATY PERSON!
Screw sparkling, THAT is cool.
*tries to stifle her laugh so as not to disrupt the movie*
@Ez: Sorry. *shrinks back so that her sparkles reverse, almost absorbing light rather than emitting it (I did NOT know I could do that. O_O)* Better?

#ChaseForBook9


Star Inkbright said...

Hunter and Ez: *look at Pepsi and Coke* *look at each other* *laugh*
Hunter: "Sparkles."
Ez: "Sparkly sparkles, yes." :)
Hunter: *smiles* :) "Sparkles."
