Hey, sorry for missing FAF last week. I was busy preparing for the release of Shay’s Story, but you guys know all about that. Hope you’re enjoying it, and sorry to those who can’t find a copy nearby. They will appear eventually.
This week I’m headed up to the Somerset Festival of Literature, where I’ll be appearing several times and giving my Leviathan speech, so I thought I’d post this FAF now.
Let’s start with a little love triangle from Miyu999:
Everyone’s expressions are great here, and I like that Alek is distracted by Bovril. (Bovril is SO distracting!)
But enough love. Here’s some Clanker hardware! Oskar created this in the game Spore, and it even has moving legs (in the game, not here, alas).
Because it’s 3D art, I think we need several views.
Pretty cool. I haven’t played Spore in a while, and it’s definitely gotten more sophisticated.
Here, from Lydia, some comic art.
I love that the biggest maternal yelling is about the haircut, not the, you know, treason and stuff.
And a couple of sketches from Carly, kissy Dalek:
And annoyed Deryn:
Angry Deryn is angry. I love that her tie is loosened, and that makes her totally ready to rumble.
And here’s another of that ever-popular lift from the book, Bovri-with-fake-mustache, from Nicole:
I love that this throwaway line in the text, about Bovril trying on the mustache, has become the signature image of Bovril. And I’m sure in an unillustrated book, most people would have skipped over that sentence and not become obsessed with it. THE POWER OF THE PICTURE.
And finally, a quirky and expressive micro-sketch of Deryn from Lauren:
I like her messy hair.
Thanks to everyone for their work this week. I’ll probably go back to Fan Art Friday Fortnightly, because I’m busy working on a New S3krit Project, which is a novel. And, of course, I’m still busy with the second Uglies manga. Also there is ANOTHER s3krit project, which is not a novel, which will be announced in the next month or so.
And of course I’ll be doing the meet-up after the Festival, which means next week. Shall we say Tuesday night, March 20, at 8PM American-East-Coast-time?
But I’ll get back into full blogging mode when we get closer to the Manual of Aeronautics coming out, which is August 21!








Isn’t it actually dr. Barlow’s loris that tries on the mustache? Any way great art everyone!!!!
Scott, you do know February is over, right…? I think you meant March, heh.
Well, I’m excited for this! Got lost of post-Goliath questions to ask!
Scott, the one picture of Alek standing on a box is 1) from last weeks FAF, and 2) not Dante D’s. That picture is mine, and I don’t know how you got it from Dante D!
I don’t want to throw a big fit, but please realize your mistake. Thank you!
Oops. Wrong file! Fixing now.
For some reason the pictures between the comic and mustacheloris are invisible. . . or really don’t seem to exist at all. There’s not even anything to click.
Hmm, just wonder if it’s me or if someone else is experiencing the same issue. . .
No, it happened to me too. I clicked on the ?s to view and my nook downloaded them. But when i tried to view them, nothing happened. And i do believe C girl is correct. Though ill need to check.
Yep, it was Dr.Barlows. maybe the mustache can be the symbol of ALL lorises?
I can’t see those either! I’m utterly distressed about it! 🙁 FAFs are my absolute favorite! *depression*
Hmm…maybe all lourises should wear mustaches (lourises? Louris? Louri? Louries), even though there’s only two. Sob forn the poor third louris. Curse u ottoman guy. Still imagine what it would be like if there were three lourises! (Again lourises? Louris…?) Utter madness!
Oh and I know this is completely off topic but I just read the first uglies book and it was amazing! You’ve done it again scott, well technically those books came first..details details.
Louris? Louroos? Lourisisisis? Louriss?
I’ve seen the first one before (awhile ago, but still). It’s one of my favorites, though, so I’m not going to complain. Leave it up!
@9- Yes, Uglies is amazing, but Pretties is even amazinger (more amazing)!
And Scott, you still haven’t answered my question…. About the shoe (heehee), Nazi thing, or weirdest thing a fan ever said to you…
Tuesday night, March 20th, at 8PM?
Hmm, that will work…
@5. those are mine. and no, you are not the only one experiencing that problem.
SCOTT! this had happened a couple times. I’m not upset or anything, just drawing your attention to it.
ha ha. 13th comment!
(reference to anyone who’s read Midnighters!)
@11-was pretties your fav? It was my least fav… SPECIALS ALL DA WAY!
@11- oooo the shoe!
Sorry about the spam last post ,I guess I kind of over reacted , but still a noble cause P.S. awesome art guys ,=)
@17- 😀
tsk-tsk! I’ve been stalking, I mean, checking this website since Thursday, waiting for some FAF to pump me up for finals week. AND IT WAS LATE. >:[ But now it’s here, so I won’t complain (too much). And now I will be stalking, that is to say, checking up on this website for info about the s3rit projects. I’M EXCITED! 😀
@19-um….okay? 😉
I’m new to this site, but I’ve always loved your works, Scott! I especially love the Uglies series! I’m an aspiring artist, so I like to draw my interpretations of your characters 🙂
MR. WESTERFELD!!!!!!!!!!
IT IS DR. BARLOW’S LORIS, AND NOT BOVRIL WHO TRIES ON EDDIE MALONE’S FAKE MUSTACHE! 🙂
Love this website so much your work is great Scott!
I think Leviathan is my fav. then Midnighters, sadly however the only other series I’ve read is Uglies. Cant find any others
O and read Shays story in one I feel so bad for her now
It is indeed Dr. Barlow’s loris who I like to call Steve. You should give her the shoe Scott-la! Oh, and I love the first one!
THAT’S MY STORMWALKER!!! YAY!! Enough all-caps already. I like the first one too. I think we’ve said it enough already, but that’s not Bovril trying on the mustache. It’s Dr. Barlow’s loris. (Which should be named, by the way.)
The Bovril fan-art will never die out.
S3cret project! I like secrets. 8)
Oh wait! s3krit*
Hullo! (:
Is anyone on?
Hola.
(That’s yes, BTW.)
Yay! Lol(:
Hey, is it me or wasnt that first picture already posted on a different FAF?
I’m Mexican(which means I know Spanish) and that says hello lol
I haven’t seen it before.
I have.
Question, is the second S3krit project, (the one that isn’t a novel)
Leviathan: The Movie!?!?! Because that would be the most awesome thing to happen since Bovril! And if it is, is there going to be fan merchandise like there is for the Hunger Games!? That would also be awesome beyond belief. Or, if it isn’t Leviathan: The Movie, is it Leviathan: The Lego set? That would be a good substitute if the movie deal didn’t happen, (but I really want it to happen.) I can’t wait ’till nest month when you tell us what the S3krit project is, *sigh* this is going to be the longest month in my life since I waited for Goliath. Wait, that was like, a year. This month shall be longest of my 14 years of life. *sigh*
@33: Yes, yes, I know. I meant that was a response meaning “Yes, someone is here!”
Ooh lol.
You must be more specific withme I am easily confused .-.
@36: How ’bout a LEGO movie!!! 🙂 (OK, not really, but good ideas!)
Sorry, everyone. Dinner calls.
LEGO game!!!(: lol
You’ll be back righ…?
@20, please forgive me, I’m new to this whole posting thing. I just wished to express my feelings.
The Uglies movie is set to release sometime this year (According to IMDb). Could this possibly be one of his s3rit projects? (Most likely not, since he posted about it a year ago. But possibly revealing the cast or something? Just something I’d thought I’d toss out there.)
@41: I would actually wait outside at midnight (If I REALLY had to) to get a LEGO Leviathan game!
August 21 couldn’t come any later. (Okay, it could, but it’s still along time.) *Sigh*
[a long]
I like the tellyphone one. (Yes, I meant to spell it that way.)
Was there no time change in Australia, or is it just the comment clock?
Anyone else here like LEGO? And/or Star Wars?
I’m sure the everyone loves these (apparently) rhetorical questions.
Whoops! “the everyone,” should be “everyone”
50! Muwahahahuawaha!
No?
Hmph.
I hate spring time change. I stayed up until eleven trying to sleep and had to wake up at five for chamber orchestra. Ooh, the first S3krit projecto(thatsspanish for project) is a book about the abominable snowman turning out to be an alien from planet x and that in said book there is awesome spy action. The second projecto ( okay, its not really spanish) is the prequal to Leviathan where we learn how Deryn got her mysterious love for potatoes and Aleks bonkers family (actually, both their famalies are crazy) and there love for pointy helmets. B) oh yah
BD
@52: That sure would be interesting.
Wait, the second project is Volger action figures with exact replica handlebar mustaches.
@55: AWESOME!!
I know
I might be the only be me, but I think you already posted the first piece of art. I haven’t looked at the other comments yet, though, so sorry if someone said that.
So yeah. Think you’ve put that trio one up already, Mr. Westerfeld.
So Leviathan Legos and movie, abominable snowman, and collector’s Volger figures. COOL!
Why cant i make sunglasses face BD B) nether seems to work!
@58: Yeah, Zaliz-la said that. Must be true if two said so.
8)
(Volger Face)
@59 dont forget the prequel about potatoes and pinty hats!
@62i hate u
@64: Sorry, but WHAT???
@65: Sorry, use an 8, so this mirrored: (8
It was a joke, really.
*Smacks forhead*
Its after 10 where i am. Should probably make up for lost sleep. Bye peoples!
@64: Oh yes, Deryn’s potato love and Alek’s loco familia.
@70: Bye-Bye, pepper friend. No one else here, it looks like.
*friend of pepper* (It was a joke.)
Too many jokes, right?
If 50 was x, then x(1/2)+x=this comment!
Gotta read Extras sometime. Bye-Bye, central processing unit.
Sometime = Now. Bye.
Wow, lucky! 77! Ok, BYE.
Please Scott, write another midnighters book. You left Jessica and the others kind of “hanging”….PLEASE
Thank you for posting my Stormwalker, Scott! Bye again!
Hey yall
@24- ah we got another UPSE fan in da house!
@79-IKR?!?!!
Is it just me, or are the pictures for: “And a couple of sketches from Carly, kissy Dalek:
And annoyed Deryn:”
not appearing?
@52, their families should totally get together sometime. They will have to, for the wedding and al! 😉
Ach! I just realized the picture I sent in for FAF wasn’t quite attached to the email… oops. So, even if I’m not in it…
Great Fanart, everyone!
I think the first one was my favorite. You did the faces really well. And Bovril.
Hello, all my Wester-Obsessor friends! I’m sorry that I haven’t been on since, like, Friday, but I’ve been super busy. And, not even 100 comments yet?
Oh, and the comic was quite funny. I love how all Alek got from that was that Scottish people yell a lot. And Bovril was all like, “Heehee”. Yeah.
Ya I luv the first. Deryns like what the hell r u doing? Aleks clueless as always
@85 i could see that, at ,like , a bridal shower or something. Hahahahahahaha thats just a wonderfully priceless image 😀
Choosing second language tomorow! Curious, wut do u guys think i should learn. Spanish, German, Chinese, or Japanese?
@15- I Definateley liked Pretties the best, and Extras was my least fav. I just didn’t like Specials or Extras endings…
@90- German, definately.
Today in science, I was so glad I had read Uglies! We were talking about carbon, and fullerenes (buckyballs) and there was this question we had to answer, “How can fullerenes help the human body?” And so I went into a long talk about how they could maybe someday take nanos that would eat leisions on the brain and stop all mental illnesses, but my science teacher found that a little ‘too creative’ and told me to sit down. But in English we had to write poems and we all had writers block, so I said “A very wise man once said: The best cure for writers block? Blow something up! (In the story)” so we had a bunch of Haiku poems about explosions….
Scott: please, please, PLEASE figure out what’s going on with Carly’s artwork and fix it soon! We’re friends at school, so she told be about it, but will not shown them to me and it is driving me crazy!
Im listening to Pandora and cannibal by Kesha came on. It was good till she started saying she wants a guys liver on a platter and that shell suck his teeth for dessert. I tried to skip it but i had already skipped to many songs. Gah. Im scarred. But now comatose by Skillets on and im good.
@92-lol
Hey you Non-UPSE fans…. one of yall once said that UPSE couldn’t relate to the real world…..yes I remember these things watch what you say 😉
anyway….TAKE THAT LOOK AT COMMMENT 92!!!!!
hum nobody seems to be around! 100 here I come!!

Lalalalaalalalalalalalalalalala
Hey one of my puppies bit me…
Hey I wanna go swimming! I shall go night-swimming later!
Of course, we have to have quarter exams the same week as the meet up…
Oh look a person!!!
I’m reading Extras.
Nobody here apparently.
I WAS RIGHT! PEOPLE CAME WHILE I WAS AT DINNER!!
@123-Extras is okay… My 3rd fav
@126: 3rd favorite Uglies book?
The reason the Cyklop Stormwalker isn’t too detailed is that there is a complexity (part) limit on Spore models. It’s pretty annoying.
Congrats on comment 100 Sophie-la aka Sorley. You didn’t seem too excited, though.
AWSOME!!!!! Can’t believe I forgot to check yesterday!!!!! 🙁
@130: Hello. Have you seen the first piece before too?
Hullo everyone whom might be on(:
Darn I’m alone .-.
I still would LOVE a LEGO leviathan game. I mean seeing the animals all pixelated like that It would be like MINECRAFT!!!! xD
Perfrably I’d have it for PS3, but xbox would be just as good (:
Sooooo like I’m rerererererererereading UGLIES series again :p
Just finished PRETTIES going on SPECIALS Lolz…
@129-nobody to share it with!
@130-where have you been??? 🙂
Hello people that may be on! We need to cordinate our meetups cuz this is just sad.
Why is my music depressing!? Im not goth…
And now its me being bored.
Wel, im gonna sleep. Good night poeple who are not here!
I’m always late for chat -_-
And I’m texting Sophie so THAT don’t count :p
It’s 21:17 and I can not sleep .-.
How sad…
And I’ve got stupid High School Exit Exams tommorow!!! >:(
(well technically today, lol)
I must try and sleep…
I’m sure you’ll all be amused to know that I accidently used the term ‘Clanker Powers’ in school yesterday. And also the words ‘blisters, this is easy’. And the word ‘clart’, in refernce to the school’s pudding. My friends thought I had lost my mind.
Hehe thats priceless. Of course, not as priceless as me using the word perscipacious in biology and everyone just kinda stared at me like i had started speaking french. It was fu-uny!
Exit exams suck :/
I am also very bored :p
ANYONE ON!!!!!!!!!
Hello annnnd no ones here 🙁
:p 8) ^-^
@105- They didn’t show the part where he showed up at MY door in that commercial did they? Kinda sad, a fist fight broke out, and he can’t even hit peuberty, let alone me!
I’m on, which means you’re all gone…
@149-yes he has!! Very recently but still…;)
JB.is.my.life.
@SteampunkJedi- Which Uglies book was your fav.? I liked Pretties the best, then Specials, then Uglies, and I really didn’t see the point of Extras, except it did calm me down a little bit that “the last time Tally kissed a boy she ended up watching him die,” because before that I thought it was just like her boyfriend died and five minutes later she runs off into the wilderness with her ex! I mean, who does that? Still, the end upset me…
@150- there’s this kid that goes to my school and he LOOKS JUST LIKE JB. Except the kid at my school is attractive… Maybe they don’t look that alike…
@143. High School EXIT exams? How old ARE you?
Ooh! I just posted Chapter 22, everyone! Go read it!
@152-watch it! 😉
@153
I’m 15. In high school (obv) and a sophomore.
@155-nah, I NEVER thought you’d be in high school! 😉
Lier! Sophie!
Do I really sound that immature?
Why do you have exit exams as a sophmore?
In that case, yes. Before, not really.
Hahahahahaha
Hey, wait a minute. I thought it was impossible to have more than one person on at a time!!! :O
This. Is. Magical.
Im gonna dye my hair!
Kay, good night/evening/morning/afternoon/whatever. I must rest. My mom gave me apill to help. I THINK it was legal… shes a nurse… this is like confession… this is awkward… bye.
Wait, salt! Don’t go! My mom’s a nurse, too! I know EXACTLY how you feel! I’ve been somewhat in your situation before. What color are you dying your hair, and from what color?
Okay, well, goodnight all. Tomorrow I will post one of my art/crafts projects to my blog so you can see what took 7+ hours out of my life. Ugh.
GO TEAM IOWA!
@151: I haven’t finished Extras yet (schoolwork and all), and I like Moggle so far (a ROBOT!!), but I have to say Specials was pretty awesome. So I like Specials best, then Pretties, then Uglies (they get better every time!! [or at least so far]) and Extras undecided thus far.
Wow. I’ve never used double-parenthesis. How are you supposed to do that anyway?
@167: Is there actually a TEAM IOWA or is that your exit signature?
@134: That would be, frankly, awesome.
I have Science Fair tomorrow, so probably no comments from me tomorrow.
@ Miles
I have no clue Miles, but I do. As does every sophomore in California, but I am guessing it is so if you fail you have time to retake it.
@salt
Oooh! I’m dying my hair too!! It’s going to be pink lol!(:
@Jedi
Good luck with the science fair!! (well if you are in it anyways)
I’m curious if you can have an @scottwesterfeld email account. Like a Gmail. Lol that would be badass!(:
@170 yes, there actually is a team Iowa
@middy miles my hair is currently an undied light blonde but I think Ill streak it with purple OR dye it all black. My friend Sarah did that. And my friends Kristen and Haven dyed their hair red… Im undecided, but I know I shall dye IT
@whoever asked which book is favorite- probably specials(ecept for Zane dying) then Uglies, then Pretties, then Extras (theres just something about it that I dont like as much as the others, though its still awesomsauce)
GO TEAM IOWA!!!!!
@170
All this talk about LEGO makes me want to have an Eggo waffle lol
I meant 171 last comment xP
(icy fail)
@salt- How could you forget that it was me who asked that question? I’m so unforgettable…. or, at least, thats what my friends say when I scare someone… And I would have liked Specials best if you cut out the Zane dying part (and the whole 10 minutes later Tally runs off with David part)… When ever I think about those two parts, if I think hard enough, I become physically sick.
In my story, I’m like Shay. I’m REALLY the cause of everything, but my friend gets all the credit. Even the part about Shay and Zane is the same (except she didn’t physically KILL him). He was my best guy-friend (like Shay and Zane) then my friend came along, dated him, and he dumped her but then she ruined his life. He is dead on the inside now and we hardly ever talk… sad making right?
Im sorry I forgot it was you that asked that question and i honestly have nothing to say to that second part other than that sucks. Im not good with showing sympathy. My friend says Im cold when it comes to others pain. Really, I just know that theyll eventually experience worse.
I’m back!
@168-THANK YOU!¡ SPECIALS IS BEST
CAN’T WAIT FOR THE MANUAL OF AERONAUTICS TO COME OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s awesome when you thin one of your favorite series has just ended and then the author writes another book… IT’S THE BEST!
I believe that was a hint to YOU Mr.Westerfeld.
I read this and was immediatley lmao
http://theprinceofparties.deviantart.com/art/Gender-bending-Squirrel-244403060
and the sequel
http://theprinceofparties.deviantart.com/gallery/?offset=24#/d41tphd
Hi anybody here?
@173: Thank you, and I am in it. It’s a short while from now, so bye for a while.
SCOTT!!! CHECK THIS OUT!!!!
http://www.grindtv.com/outdoor/blog/33072/giant+manta+raised+from+the+depths+off+africa+by+ships+anchor/
Now we have to add wings and stuff…
Poor manta! Once, in florida, we went parasailing and when my mom and brother were up a giant manta jumped out of the water 30 feet from our boat! It was awesome! The guy that owned the boat said rays do that to get rid of parasitic fish. Wierd.
@186: That sure is a big Manta ray!
That’s also a whole lot of dead plankton.
13 minutes to midnight
Concidence I think not!!
I want August to come FASTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@185
No problem(:
Now, how did you do!!??
Sophie-la
You on special crack .-.
I want 300(:
For one it is an AWESOME movie lol
Second the book UGLIES is set 300 years into the future
Third, well, I’m not so sure anymore.
I have came up with a forth though(:
Forth! It has two zeros lol
And darn I just realized this is 200 .-. I feel like a bogus dumkopft
Ooh well since it IS two hundred, I shall post up something awesome(:
My monologue for drama xP lol
Here it is (: :
No.
Eragon, Angela, you both know what it is like to share someone’s thoughts and emotions as the die. You know how horrible, how wrenching it is, how it feels as if a part of yourself has vanished forever. And that is only from the death of one person. Neither of you had endured the experience unless you want to, whereas I…I have no choice but to share them all. I feel every death around me. Even now I can feel the life ebbing out of Sefton, I e of your swordsmen, Nasuada, who was wounded on the burning planes, and I know what words I could say to him that would lessen his terror of obliteration. His fear is great, oh, it makes me tremble! Ah, he is gone. But there are others. There are always others. The line of dead never ends. Do you truly understand, Nasuada, Lady Nightstalker … She Who Would Be Queen of the World? Do you truly understand? I am privy to all of the agony around me, whether physical or mantel. I feel it as if it where my very own, and Eragon’s magic drives me to alleviate the discomfort of those who suffer, regardless of the cost to myself. And I I resist the urge, as I am this very moment, my body rebels against me: my stomach turns to acid, my head throbs as if a dwarf is hammering on it, an I find it hard to move, much less think. It is what you wish on me Nasuada? Night and day I have no respite from the pain of the world. Since Eragon blessed me, I had known nothing but hurt and fear, never happiness of pleasure. The lighter side of life, the things that make this existence bearable, these are denied me. Never do I see them. Never do I share in them. Only darkness. Only the combined misery of all men, women, and children within a mile, battering at me like a midnight storm. This blessing has deprived me of the opportunity to be like other children. It has forced my body to mature faster than normal, and my mind even faster still. Eragon may be able to remove this ghastly ability of mine and the compilation that accompanies it, but he can not return me to what I was, nor what I should be, not without destroying who I have become. I am a freak, neither child a nor an adult, forever doomed to stand apart. I am not blind, you know. I see how you recoil when you hear me speak. No, this is too much to as of me. I will not continue like this for the sake of you Nasuada, nor the Varden, nor the whole of Alagaësia, nor for my dear mother, where she still alive today. It is not worth it, not for anything. I could go live by myself, so that I would be free of other peoples affections, but I do not want to live like that. No, the only solution is for Eragon to attempt to correct his mistake. And if you disagree with me, I’d you think I am being stupid and selfish, why, then, you would do well to remember that I am hardly more than a swaddling babe and have yet to celebrate my second birthday. Only fools expect an infant to martyr herself for the greater good. But infant or not, I have made my decision, and nothing you can say will convince me otherwise. In this, I am as iron.
Tell me what you think!!!!(:
And I have to memorize ALL of that!!!
.-.
Ooh well lol(:
Oh! I know who the monologue is from the point of view of! That one girl that was the baby the Eragon blessed and messed up the wording who grew really fast and had other people’s pain! No, I don’t care if that’s really obvious. *sticks out tongue* I haven’t read the 3rd or 4th books, and she wasn’t a super major character in the first two. He just got too wordy for me. And I think that to come up with words he slams his face on the keyboard. Complete gibberish 😀
Not bad, not bad at all.
@197-ummmmmm…….NO!!! 300.is.mine!
@200-congrats!
And lllooooonnnngggg comment, and I am to lazy to read all that….
Cheer tryouts 1 week from now! Starting Monday I probably won’t be on that much… Because after school there are these required cheer prep classes..then after the school prep class, I go straight to another…
I am officialy taking German! At the moment i have limited vocab, though. I know how to count to ten , say good morning, good night, goodbye,yes, no, dog, and table ( but only cuz its a funny word hehe tish)
i know how to see hello and goodnight in german. and teapot for some reason…don’t ask.
i’m still waiting to read pretties and im getting so impatient. My stupid library only has two copies and they’re both checked out. WHO EVER HAS THEM I WILL FIND YOU!!!! Or just wait until you bring it back…whatever works.
@Miles
Her name is Elva (:
Lol(:
@Sophie
NEVER!!!!!! D:<
Oh! Alsooooooo… thank you Miles (:
@207
Ask to order it from anothe library. That’s what I do (:
@193: I won the High School section of the Science Fair.
@202: I recognized that also. If you read the last two books, be prepared for a disappointing ending. (In my view.)
@208 im sorry. I HATE waiting for books so whenever I get a book froma series and the next isnt out yet I read my book SUUUUUUUUUUPER slowly, like, a chapter a day. It sorta helps 😛
@steampunkjedi kewl ,what did you do?
@213: I did paper chromatography.
@211-CONGRATS!!
@214. Paper chromatography? Define. *”So Yesterday” reference!*
@215: Thank you. I Just finished Extras!
I guess near the end of Extras it becomes kind of anti-climatic, but I liked it a lot. I think Moggle was pretty awesome.
has anyone here read Incarceron??
beacuse i kinda ran out of books to read. darn last page.
@216: Here goes: Paper chromatography is an analytical chemistry technique for separating and identifying mixtures that are or can be colored, especially pigments. (From Wikipedia)
@221: The way I did it, basically it’s a simple way to separate different pigments in markers, using hanging paper and a solvent that seeps up the paper and carries pigments in different colored markers (or pens) of different weights to different heights.
Let’s see, which one made more (or less) sense?
@211
NICE!!!(:
If they had a Leviathan Movie, I would EXPLODE WITH JUBILATION. I also found out that I used to be friends with a boy named ALEK when we were toddlers. I thought I was going to have a heart attack.
@206
And we all know the german word for idiot (Dummkopf)
I finally found some sort of mistake (or something like that) in the Uglies series! In Pretties, Andrew Simpson Smith touches the ‘mark from the gods’ above Tally’s left eyebrow, but on the cover of Specials, the mark is on the right side of her face…
@226 actually Dummkopf is German for ninny, not idiot….though I guess they amount to about the same thing.
fool
blockhead
idiot
imbecile
dullard
bonehead
chump
loggerhead

Goose?
I’ve never heard of “dullard” before.
@227: I noticed in Extras that there are quotation marks when no one speaks. I don’t remember exactly, but it was something like this: (“Aya hesitated.”I don’t know.”)
@217-YAY
@222-I’ve done that! It’s so fun!
@227-OMGAWD! Nice!!!!!!
@232- :/
@236: I meant that was a mistake I noticed.
haha… are we all on or am I late?
@238: I meant 237. 237. But now I realize that 237 wasn’t directed at 233, but at 232.
@233
I noticed that as well when I was reading it for the first time, and every other time as well.
Stretch!!
This is pathetic!! A week and not even 300 comments!!!
@243: Babble away then.
@244-
I
Love
UPSE
And
Justin
Drew
Bieber!
<3
I am alone
I do love how people always call Alek ‘Dalek’ lol
He does have emotions, doesnt he? and 2 eyes… and voice without a mono-tone… and he doesn’t have an incessant desiere to yell ‘EXTREMINATE’ when he sees a medic…
@254: I’m pretty sure Dalek means Alek+Deryn.
Yah, Dalek in Leviathan fandom is not a reference to doctor who…
It’s 1:04 am
What are you guys doing awake?
Yep and i really should be sleeping but am not tired. Kinda sad since ive been up since 800
Cause I’m texting Zaliz-la 😀
@259-hello salt!
I was watching glee on netflix but it was getting early so… idk what im doing, actually…
Hi sophie
@262-I LOVE GLEE!!
Gleek out!
Wassup?
*yawn* mybe i am tired. Should sleep right now… getting shorts tomorow to accomadate the freaking hot weather… bye…
Salt out. Good to awkwardly chatroom talk with you Sophie and yes. Glee is awesome.
Night!!
@Sophie-la: I see you took my advice.
@268-ya, I got bored, and I was alone
Glee is awesome! Except for Mercedes’ stupid boyfriend. Samcedes needs to exist again.
@salt. Isn’t too hot??? I had my birthday party today and was out playing with my little cousins, and I was all like “Whoa. It’s way too hot out here, especially considering it’s still winter until the 21st.” Yeah.
It was 81 degrees out! AND MY SCHOOL IS CHEAP WITH THE AIR CONDITIONING! I could only find 4 pairs of shorts in an entire strip mall that both fit me and my mom deemed long enough. I HATE hot weather!
I am in a SUPER bad mood.
@270. Typo. Isn’t *it too hot???
@271. I know how you feel, salt. I’m also in a really bad mood, mostly because all of the shorts I wore last summer don’t fit any more! My bum got way too big, and that just gets me so steamed! I haven’t even tried to go find new ones yet.
@270-SAMTANA
@271-81° is hot?!??
@274-Mine got too big 😉
@276- I call 130° hot
TEXAS WEATHER BABY! Love it!!
I think 81 is uncomfortably warm.
@280-OMGAWD!! Have you been to Texas by chance? 🙂
Hulloo!!(:
@276 no,81° is not that hot, but after a scarily WARM winter, I dont like it getting warm out so quickly.
@281: I’ve been to Mexico. It was hot there. And muggy. (That’s basically the opposite of here.)
‘Night. School tomorrow. *Bleah*
@283-mmmmmm okay…81° feels pretty good to me! In December I was wearing Nike shorts! In December!
@282-we meet again 😉
@283
It’s freezing where I’m at!
@287
Hello Sophie-la (:
@284
Yeah you just described the hole place lol.
But I love going to my Abuelitas house ^-^
@288. Freezing? Define.
OMBS I FOUND A LEVIATHAN REFERENCE IN SO YESTERDAY. Well, to be fair, I guess it’s a reference to So Yesterday in Leviathan, but I read LBG first. Page 154, “I guess even a watch ad is right twice a day.” Eeek! I was so excited when I read that.
Yes, 81 degrees is uncomfortably hot, and I STILL put each and every one of my blankets over me at night on the hottest days…
@291-hot?!???!?!?!?!?!
@286: In Texas!
Darn you global warming. You made me miss snow. I am really grumpy lately. I feel like a 2 year old pouting over not getting ice cream but i am still really pissed. >:(
@294: Count me in.
Has Spore gotten more sophisticated or did I make it more sophisticated? Hmm? (Yes, it’s super late, but I had to ask.)
300, here I come!!
Can’t wait for the Manual of Aeronautics!
And LEGO Leviathan!!!?
Muahahahahahahahahaha!! Take that!
(It’s pointless I guess, but still fun.)
Sorry Sophie-la.
There’s 300 comments and then some. That should make you happy Sophie-la. You DID ask for it. (Literally.) 8)
(OK, ALMOST literally.)
@294. You can count me in, too.
@298. Definitely. I’m so excited, especially since I will have more opportunities for fan art and be better when they’re on the ship in my fanfic. I get so flustrated when I don’t know the layout of the ship and I need to.
@300-Grr
@305&295 count you in what?
@300, i agree with sophie la. Grrrr
Not cool Jedi!! 300 was supposed to be mine!):
@290
30-50 degrees where I’m at .-. Pretty cold for me lol :p
Well, I would rather have #317 (uglies reference) and NEVER do I EVER want 340 (another Uglies reference)
@307: Count us in being mad that there wasn’t much snow.
I’m gonna go overboard on Spore when the Manual of Aeronautics comes out!
@Grr people: There’s always 400. :>
@308. I thought you were in Texas, Derek. It surely can’t be that cold…
Oh, Ronnie, hast thou abandoned us? How long has it been since she’s been on? A month by now, it feels like. At least that. Maybe she gave it up for lent, too?
@Middy Miles: Thank you for not being one of the “Grrr” people.
@312
I’m in California -.-
Hello!
317, YEAH! awesome!
Im annoyed with the school principle. Apparantly its totaly appropriate for girls to where super short shorts but we cant wear sleeveless tops cuz they think guys will be turned on by our shoulders or something…
@318
I know what it mean. I once got in trouble for wearing a strapless yellow sundress, and I had something over my shoulders. Also five other girls where wearing strapless dresses as well. I was mad .-.
@319
I meant to put I know what you mean* not it :p
Sorry.
My school won’t let us use our lockers… and I don’t think that that’s even legal!
Your LOCKERS? Qhats their angle?
Haha my school use tO have lockers, but they took them out because they are quote, “dangerous”
It snowed this morning! On the second day of spring! It melted this afternoon, sadly. Blisters. Barking odd weather this year.
@323: If lockers are quote “dangerous” then pencils and pens should be taken out too! (Showing how preposterous that is.)
(I guess pencils and pens can be dangerous in the wrong hands, but that’s beside the point.)
Whoa. Dangerous lockers and sexy shoulders. I’ve missed a lot today, haven’t I?
Although, one could argue that you could very easily *cough* fall out of a strapless shirt. They also tend to ride lower and reveal more. The other side of the argument, though, that is your side, is that your bum could fall out of a pair of shorts like that, though probably not as easily. What I get mad about is yoga pants. There’s nothing wrong with them, really, but the way that people wear them. They’re so tight you can tell they don’t have anything on underneath. I just hope they don’t have P.E. those days, or that they at least have the decency to change in a shower stall.
@327: You forgot the snow!
It’s snowing again! In spring! (Not sticking though)
(Yes, this is significant, because it’s only the second time it’s snowed this year.)
@328: o_O
@317: Room 317!
@325
So true! I’ve gotten stabbed before with pencils! (but I am also not very careful So it could go either way)
@Miles
Yes, I have sexy shoulders 😉
@Jedi
I wish I had snow!!!! ):
Yeah. How is it that SteampunkJedi gets snow and we don’t, salt and M@X? I find it very unfair. In fact, all this week and most of last week I’ve been wearing shorts. Hmph.
It’s raining here. Hace llueve. That means it smells like worms. But that’s okay, because I love rain! It’s been going off and on since Monday.
@332. I wish I had sexy shoulders. Stupid acne. No matter how hard I try, it just won’t. go. away. Grrr……
Okay, so I’m at school, right? And they’ve blocked out just about everything, and at the bottom of the page right now, it says “Image restricted”. I think they took away the smiley face that’s always there…
I don’t have sexy shoulders, or maybe I do, but they’re NOTHING compared to my sexy FEET (lol it’s a long story)! It’s been record high temperatures in Michigan ALL WEEK! Please kill me already! Where’s the 6 feet of snow? Or the 12 in. of rain? well, now that I’m on Spring break we’re probably gonna have a blizzard!
Well, I hope someone gets on and takes 340, be cause if not, all conversation will end… Where is Scott? He was here a little last week, and that’s how this shoe buisness started (I’m still waiting for it, just so you all know…)
@328 not strapless, sleeveless. Three girls today had to wear wintercoats from the lost and found while about 50 girls at school were wearing shorts that stoped 4 inches beloy their hips. Its annoying how stupid adults can be.
Rain, rain, dont go away! We have a bowling trip tommorow for the whole grade but only a third of us can go because my science teacher plays favorites( im one of them, but still) and gets mad at nothing. I once kicked a guy hard in the shin in class and when he complained, she told him that he shouldnt bug me in the first place! It was funny, but also stupid. She also gave three kids a detention for “having to much fun”! I am NOT KIDDING!
Its raining, its sprinkling, the old man is tinkling! He lost his shoe, fell off the lou, and didnt get up till morning!
Did you know that Twinkle twinkle little star and the alphabet song thing have the same tune?
340!!! Um…. dont remember the significance of 340 but, AWESOME!
@337. Oh, sleeveless. Well, then, that was overboard on their part.
@339. That is SO not how the song goes the way I learned it.
@333
Awe, don’t worry! I’m sure it will go away soon enough ^-^
@334
No, it’s still there 😀
@339
Wow, that’s a new version I’ve never heard of lol!
@Nosnowpeople: The snow never reached an inch, and it all melted this morning. Nothing to be jealous about.
@339: My math teacher has gone on about that before. (The Alphabet.)
@341: Did you learn the its-raining-its-pouring-the-old-man-is-snoring one?
@340- I HATE the number 340 because in UPSE Zane DIES in that room number… My science teacher yelled at me for being “too creative” but I was really just explaining the Uglies series to my friend and when I tried to tell her that she told some other kid that she hoped he died of cancer one day… Is it even legal to say that?
Did I miss you all by seconds?!?
I love how when peoples phones fall they panic, but when their friends fall they laugh…
Really? No one else is on? I missed you by 5 FUDGING MINUTES!
I just realized, I know a David, a Maddy, and a Zane… looks like my story is falling into place… except, David is 21, in the Navy, and MY COUSIN, Zane is 19 (not that different), and Maddy is like 7 and my cousin, but in no way is she related to David, and I would not eat any pill she gave me…
I’m socially akward in a good way apparently… haha… It’s spring break for me!
so what do you guys look like? I mean, some of you I know, but everyone else? I’m 5’3, 13 years old, big blue eyes, blonde hair (with brown low-lights) I wear a retainer, my (sexy) feet are size 9, my nose is a little too big for the rest of my face, and I like to laugh at/ talk to guys in singlets (just my school wrestling team, because they’re more socially akward than me!)
Maybe I’ll be back later, goodbye!
@345: I highly doubt that is legal.
You have a troubled science teacher…
Or some kids are really annoying in that class. Maybe both.
Yep.
@349 ill probably never ACTUALLY meet you people in real life bu, what the heck. Ill just type up one of my old writing papers.
My name is Lydia Sybille __________(yah, im gonna tell you people myLAST name). I have fluffy(or frizzy. Depeds on your defenition) white blonde hair. No, seriously. My hairdresser told me she had never naturally seen hair this light on anyone older than ten. I have palish skin. My friend says my complexion makes me look albino. I have medium sized eyes that are a navy blue/light gray eyes. I have a nice nose that, compared with models, is embarassing, but i love it. I have a kinda small mouth and full lips, which is wierd ’cause noone else in my family is like that. Im 5′ 3 1/2″, am skinny, have size 8 feet, and my credit card number is- hehe… nevamind…
I love the bands paramore and skillet. I am a smart ass, am sarcastic, and am really funny but only with people that are either my friends, family, or people i will never see again. All other people at school think im a wierd, quiet girl that reads a lot, and is typically either really smart or really dumb. Im tired (i have a bit of insomnia) so im gonna try to sleep. Good night.
@355: Good night.
Good morning.
I have ALOT of insomnia… glad to know I’m not the only one… I really like the All-American Rejects… I smart mouth my science teacher because she hated me first. She has this whole theory that if you name a dog after a scientist, it will be a smart dog. So I say “My grandma has a dog named Sheryl,” (thts my science teacher)” And it is the dumbest dog ever!” I’ll tell you all my name if you care, but you gotta promise yu won’t laugh…
Anyone else on?
I finally ordered Shay’s Story… Shuld be here next week, I hope I don’t go insane before then…
I wont laugh at your name. And I dont knnow if its just on my moms laptop, but I cansee the two pics by Carly. I just beat my friends boyfriend, another friends ex boyfriend, some guy thats in my grade but ive never met, and a strange kid that has to sit at my lunch table-as a punishment- at lazertag. Im awesome.
@361: It’s a punishment to sit at your lunch table?
I’m finally back!!
@Jedi
It is something to be jealous about if you have never seen snow fall before you in your entire life.
Now I’m going to the new FAF :p
Hope to see you all there!! 😀
Well, my name is Penny Pe- I’d rather not say, but it’s my initials that are funny so… my friends call me Todd though, whats up with that?
