Mhm

[Ian Hunt]

Why? ;D
Yeah.
Well to you.
You think? lol.

[Arden Patricks]

Bastage. ;D lol
Yeah, I think. Frequently. *yawns*
Good lord. Yeah, I'm tired.

[Ian Hunt]

;D
So now you know you're tired rather than just thinking you are? Reassuring.
Did you not sleep or somesuch?

[Arden Patricks]

Yes, I thought so.
And no, I slept. I just seem to need way too much sleep and I'm getting a normal amount instead. I dunno, maybe it'll wear off a bit.

[Ian Hunt]

Oh, that's not so good.
I hope it does wear off, yes. *nods*

[Arden Patricks]

Yeah, think it will. I just had some cocaine-laced butter cookies, too, so that should help.
Would you like some?

[Ian Hunt]

Haha, yeah, I should think that'd help.
Oh go on then, I think I will.

[Arden Patricks]

Yep. Sugar and cocaine are good for waking up.
And there you go then.

[Ian Hunt]

Haha, yeah.
Thanks much.

[Arden Patricks]

Welcome.
And now I feel slightly sick, 'cause I don't usually eat in the morning.

[Ian Hunt]

Oh my. You're not having a good start really.

[Arden Patricks]

No, apparently not. Eh, not too bad though really.
And you've had a lovely day yourself, haven't you?

[Ian Hunt]

No, not too bad.
I have indeed. *nods*

[Arden Patricks]

Aye. *nods back*
But now, I really do feel sick, so I think I might go and lie down or something. Though that could just be 'cause I'm scared again 'cause the school is charging me too much money for classes I didn't take and they won't listen to reason.
Or, maybe I'm sick. So I think I'm going to go.

[Ian Hunt]

Alright.
Oh dear. Well, I hope you feel better.

[Arden Patricks]

I do, yes. You know that state where you get so hungry that eating things makes you queasy like you're going to throw up? Or maybe I'm just weird like that. But yeah, now I think I'm past it and I feel much better. How are you?
And also... I got a job! The thrift store just hired me and I have to go do paperwork on Monday.

[Ian Hunt]

Yeah, I know that state.
I'm alright. I feel a lot calmer today, because I punched Mika yesterday and I actually broke his nose. How cool is that? xD
Yay! ;D That's cool.

[Arden Patricks]

Well... probably is just rather weird then.
... Um... not very. Good lord. What'd he ever do to you?
;D Yep. It's very cool.

Oh, and p.s.:
I am sending yet another version of my book to you. I mean, same version really but now there's two more chapters. Except one of the chapters is the Logan one and I haven't really changed it 'cause I barely know how to start and I don't think I have his voice right and such. So could you please, please, pleeeeeaaase ask MattyMatt maybe to read it and give his input, and maybe advise me what to take out and such? I mean... I really hate that chapter more than it should be possible to hate such a thing.
Anyway... thank you. And here are some nice cocaine-laced cookies for your trouble.

[Ian Hunt]

Lol, probably.
I dunno. It turned out I was still pissed off because I got really angry again later, and he was standing in my way. But he thinks it's really funny, so I guess all's well that ends well.
Yup.

Yay! Yeah, I'll ask Matt stuff and give you feedback later.

[Arden Patricks]

Ah. Well, as long as he's deranged like that I guess it's all okay.
Wee! Laura's home. I missed her so. And now she's all leaderlike and knows a bunch of peppy chants.
So how are you today then?

;D I love you very much. Really, really do.

[Ian Hunt]

Yuppyupp.
Yay! That's brilliant. Lol, peppy chants.
I'm pretty alright today. And yourself besides being happy that Laura is home?

Haha, rightbackatcha. Matt read it and is in awe of your writing skills, and then he laughed for a long time at his own inferior dialogue and says that he hopes he writes better than that now, but suggests that you scrap most of the Logan bit because it really goes on too long and round in many a circle.

[Arden Patricks]

I have an urge to sing the Ewok freedom song now.
Yeah... really annoying peppy chants. I'm glad I never had to go, 'cause it's like everything they did there was specifically designed to put someone like me in a foul mood.
I'm pretty good as well. And less tired than yesterday, which is good. Anything up with you?

Yeah, sure. And I know I have to scrap a bit but the problem is I love bits of the dialogue so they have to stay. *sigh* Eh, I'll take another look at it and see what I can change.
Oh, and MattyMatt writes lovelyly and certainly did improve. There's a bunch of points where I'm planning to use Logan's viewpoint just to get some of it in. And when I read my first conversation with him I cringed a lot and am planning to scrap most of that and redo it, 'cause I hate my own writing there. So...

[Ian Hunt]

Haha, go for it!
Lmao, yeah, I can see why that might be. I can't see Jennie and peppy chants meshing...
That's good, yes. Not much is up with me. I made an enemy with this evil woman called Nadia who goes to the adult education centre and happened to sit next to me today, and Pip and Matt failed miserably with their task of bringing back food as they brought home a tin of span, some fish, fibre cookies and lemonade. That's about all I can think of that's going on at the moment. Boring.

Haha. Matt says that they do repeat themselves a lot in that chapter, so maybe if you love the dialogue you should just cut the particularly repetitive bits.
And he says thank you a lot and is happy now, and also that he cannot think of a point in time when your writing ever sucked so back and I don't know why I'm relaying all of this.

[Arden Patricks]

Nah... I don't actually know the words, so I can't.
No, not so very well. I can't see you and peppy chants meshing that well either, except maybe in one of your stranger moods.
On the up side... sort of... Laura is now planning to force Marcie to say the chants with her whenever she gets all grouchy and whiny.
Hm. That sounds fun. Did you become enemies just because she sat by you and saw your face, or what? And are they speaking again then?

Yeah, there's a thought. I did just kind of dash it together after a while 'cause I was tired of it.
You're relaying it because you love us so. And thank you back at him and he's welcome...

[Ian Hunt]

Damnit. Foiled again!
Haha, no, does anyone actually go all that well with peppy chants?
Lol, poor Marcie...that ought to cheer her up...
Nah, cos I 'looked at her funny' when she sat down next to me. It was sort of an apathetic 'why are you sitting there?' look, but she thought that I didn't want to sit next to an Iranian woman or something and called me racist, so I was like o.0 and she took that to mean that yes, I am indeed racist and resolutely sat there for three more hours to prove a point.
But yes, Matt and Pip are speaking again. It sound sort of forced though, like they're practically shouting at each other instead of talking at normal volume, and they choke and sound hostile a lot as well, even if they're having a completely normal conversation like what they have fifth period on their timetable or something. It's weird.

Yeah, that'd explain it.
That is true, I do. And he says and that he's leaving now because his Mum is screaming at him down the phone.

[Arden Patricks]

Yep. *sigh*
Mm... good point... Well, people like Maria do. She gets to go next year and'll probably get a peppiness award or something.
Lol, yep. *grins evilly*
Oh, boy. That sounds loads of fun. You should deliberately sit next next to her next time or something. *nods*
Huh... yeah, that is weird. Ah, well, at least it'll likely get better I guess.

Mm-hmm.
;D
And damn. Adios to him then.

[Ian Hunt]

Lol, haha, peppiness award.
AHHHH! EVIL JENNIE! *hides from the evil grin*
Yeah, fun. Mhm, I might, but she scares me a little bit. And I think she might stab me with a pencil or something, because she looks at me like she wants to.
Yeah, it's a start. And maybe tomorrow she won't start to cry just because he shouts "Pass me the fucking spoon." So weird. Is that normal? I don't know.

;D
Haha, and she's really screaming at him. Full name and everything. I think he's in trouble, and Claire is all smug so I reckon it's her fault. lol.

[Arden Patricks]

It's the kind of place that would have them.
;D Ah, shush, not directed at you. Just my spawn-of-the-devil little sister who deserves it.
That would be rather violent of her....
Eh, normal? Probably not. I don't know.
;D
Ouchies. Not too nice of Claire there.
And I've just decided that I was being far too nice to my mum and not nice at all to myself when I decided to give her potpourri as an Easter present.

[Ian Hunt]

Creepy.
It was still scary. Poor evil spawn-of-the-devil-little-sister-of-Jennie-who-deserves-it.
It would be, yes. I didn't even do anything! Grahh. I feel bad though, even if I did nothing, besides look at her when she sat next to me.
Eh, just hope for the best I guess.
Lol, no, not nice of her at all.
Aw, is it that bad?

[Arden Patricks]

Agreed.
Ugh, no. Don't feel sorry for her. That's the sort of thing that's got her turned into a spoiled rotten rotten brat. And also she stalks you and MattyMatt.
That's no reason to feel bad. Although it is kind of bad if she's been discriminated against enough that she'd jump to that conclusion.
Yeah, that.
My sympathies to MattyMatt.
She lit the stupid stuff for just five minutes o so half an hour ago in a room upstairs... and I've got a headache anyway. Why did I buy her something scented when I know I can't stand scented stuff?
