The Needlehole Mysteries [3]

(ppsst Amarië... who's DP?)

Illustrated fanfic.

DP is the Dark Planet cat in my siggy. Originally at least. Could do with more explaining perhaps?

The Dark Planet has a cat? I knew there was something sinister about them.

He's only been in my signature since forever.

{{{The dark planet has been depicted as a large planet with a huge cat mouth that devours other worlds/forums. I just gave it a cat body and made it/him my beloved pet. }}}

aha i getz it

the epilogue makes a whole lot more sense now..

Okili dokili!


Perhaps DP should get an illustration too. A sneaky shadow with glowing eyes.

I think I just spent more time trying get this uploaded than I did making it.

Maybe you should write a story set in the embassy.

Ah, I just thought he was yours. Like, i don't think of you only as a Dark Planeter, I think of you as.. err.. Amarië..

Loving the drawing, so empowered

I love the glimpse inside the mysterious embassy, Amarie!

I knew there was something sinister about them.- Blue

They ate our old forum, stole all our lore, extracted Orwell from Odo (dont ask) and we had to escape to here. And since then Ambassadors Amarie and Leelee of the Dark Planet have lived alongside us and gathered a suspicious number of newspapers and Forumshire periodicals for sending back to the Dark Planet whilst becoming close to the Admin and taking a keen interest in our elections.

And you are only suspecting there is something sinister about the Dark Planet now?

I can only suggest you brush up on your Forumshire history here-

Love the picture Amarie- the Ambassador at work.

Well, I didn't know they were stroking a cat while doing it.

The Orwell/Odo extraction stemmed from Dark Planet day?

Well, Petty tried to make sense of it through his Dark Planet Day fanfiction. But I'm not sure we've ever had an explanation straight from the horse's (horses' ... ?) mouth(s).

Its the truth! How can it not be its published by Pure Publications?

As to Odo and Orwell- Odo denies it ever happened, which means it must be true.
I am not sure Orwell has commented on the matter directly, so his silence is an obvious admission of the truth of the matter

How can you doubt the history of Forumshire as recorded in the official archives Eldo?

What do they teach Hobbits in school these days? If they don't know their past then they will never recognize err.. their family history and that would be horrible. Family history was what I was talking about. Yess-ery yes.

Totally forgot about this project of mine.. One day it'll be finished though

Eel Emporium? Is it attached to Mrs Figg's residence?

yupp, i think. there is thought behind this

I love the map, Norc! Visual representations of Forumshire are always fun, but I love maps in general so this one is particularly awesome. I had too vague a sense of geography in the Needlehole stories to draw maps, though you might remember I had some much larger scale maps drawn for the backstory/political context of some of my still-languishing ideas.  But seeing Needlehole itself in such a scale is great.
