The Will and I Q/A Session (Part 3)

We have nothing better to do on our break so we thought we would answer more questions before we get back to work (Or Will nags me to go back to work, one of the two)


What Pokemon could describe each other?
Grell: A Vulpix! Because he's adorable and warms me up from head to toe!

William: I had to ask Ronald to answer this question, according to him Grell would either be a Krookodile or a Scizor. I have no idea why.

To William: Why did you cut the Grell flowers?
To Grell: What did you think about William cutting the Grell flowers?
William: A shinigami should never pose as something so ordinary as a flower.

Grell: Will deflowered me ages ago...Wait that wasn't the question, was it?

What do you think about having kids?

Grell: Yes! I think about it all the time! I have their names picked out already! Alas I'm a male and cant have babies. Adopting on the other hand...

William: No! God no.

What is the most favorite present you ever received from each other?
Grell: A rose! It was the first thing Will ever gave me, I plucked all the petals off it and preserved them in a box under my bed. That's one old rose...

William: Grell buys be hundreds of presents, ranging from first edition books to my blackberry. I cant pick just one.

Do either of you keep a dream diary?
Grell: No, I've never really thought about it.

William: Don't you think I have enough paperwork to do?

We'll be back with more answers in a few days time. As always send us more questions~

Pet Peeves

I'm in a mood to rant. I'm not in a particularly foul mood I just feel like ranting about something. Currently I'm sprawled across my bed while waiting for Will to get out of the shower. (He's going to be all dripping, shirtless and shiny when he comes back! So good things do come to those who wait~)



So here's a list of my pet peeves (while I'm waiting to die of an excessive nosebleed)

People with bad hair: Sometimes I wish I still had my old scissors so I could do the world a favour and snip off some people's hair.

Office Stationary Thieves: Everyone knows Ronald Knox is the stationary bandit. He even took my heart shaped post-its! I'm going to start gluing things to my desk.

The Dispatch Game of "Let's see who can get Grell to scream the loudest": This little "sport" was created by Ronald and Eric. It involves jumping out at me at random occasions to see who can get me to scream the loudest. It's nice to see what some people find my lady-like shriek entertaining... (So far the winner has been Eric who hid under my desk for an entire afternoon just to frighten me)

Unpleasant Sales Assistants/Waitresses: Shinigami are supposed to work without a smile, what is their excuse?

People Staring at Me: I know I am beautiful, wonderfully dressed and simply stunning to look at but seriously, if you need to stare that much just take a picture.

People Taking My Photograph When I Have No Make Up On: Doing this to me can be hazardous to your health.

Food Thieves: Another of Ronald Knox's crimes. He helped himself to my Easter dinner and steals my snacks out of my office. Apparently he is helping me watch my figure by eating all of my food.

Oh second thought maybe I should have just wrote a list of things Ronald does to annoy me, since he is featured in most of the above points.

Well I think I shall go see if Will needs a hand washing his back~

Easter Eye Candy!

Since it is Easter Sunday I thought I would mix my Sebby Sunday with a little bit of an Easter thing. So I bring you BUNNIES! I hope you're all having a wonderful Easter, unlike mine which was spent stuck in the office staring at my clock waiting to go home. I didn't even get any chocolate! It's a tragedy.

Ok! Time to respond to things!

Baking
Some of you have be suggesting things for me to try and make, since I'm trying to be all "domestic" for William, and I think my next baking project will be strawberry cheesecake or red iced cup cakes. I am already plotting on making little crimson hearts to stick on top of my cupcakes and handing them out to the collection of particularly handsome gentlemen in my life.

I Can't Help Having This Effect on Men

You all put A LOT of thought into what you would do with your last

week to live. You were all so family motivated and sweet. Personally if it was my final week I would kill everyone who I thought about killing at least once. I would have no repercussions and generally spend my last week with no regrets and doing anything I wanted. I would spend it in the arms of my lover and literally painting the town red.

I think that shall be all for this Easter. Sorry I didn't blog about anything overly interesting my darlings.

Happy Easter Everyone!

The Will and I Q/A Session (Part 2)

Since Will will be a little busy with over time the next few days we decided to answer some more questions while we have the time. If you asked us something and it hasn't been answered this time we will definitely get around to it my darlings.

What does each of you look like you when asleep?

Grell: He looks so sweet! His hair goes all messy and he occasionally does this cute little eyebrow twitch.

William: Well that is a creepy and improper question.

What do you like about each other?
Grell: Everything! His hair, his cold, goose bump inducing eyes, how his eyebrow twitches when he is annoyed, his butt (had to be said), his toned athletic arms, how he brings me a flask of soup when I'm working out in the cold at night, how he kisses me, his smile (it exists), how he makes my strawberry tea with just the right amount of honey, his cuddles and how he lets me use him as a pillow when I'm sleeping/watching TV/sick/sad. Oh and how he punishes me when I'm naughty~ Oh! I'm getting tingled all over at just the thought. I love him to DEATH

William: Cant I go back to listing annoying things about him? I have thought of a few new irritations since last time, but if you all insist on pressing me for an answer I would say he's attractive. I like his hair and hips and that is all I am going to answer on the matter.

Do you play any musical instruments and what do you think of music in general?
Grell: I cant play anything. Does being able to sing count? But I LOVE music. I'll listen to anything, but most of the time I listen to musical soundtracks, opera and classical.

William: I used to play a bit of piano until work got in the way. I prefer softer classical music, unlike some of the loud, cheesy rubbish that a certain red headed idiot blasts throughout my house.

How have you managed keep a long lasting relationship between each other ?

Grell: Never going to bed angry, giving each other lots of ~loving~, never holding a grudge and always making sure that Will is well fed/rested/warm...he gets grumpy when he's hungry/tired/cold. Also he's my red string, my soul mate, my prince charming! We're destined to be together forever!

William:
I would say that it is because we complete each other in a way. He is lazy, flirtatious and always smiling, quite the opposite from myself. Also patience and earplugs go a long way.

Has either of you ever been in a relationship before?

Grell: Oh dear this in a awkward one. Will and I have a little bit of a habit of temporarily splitting up so yes I've had other relationships. But a lady doesn't kiss and tell~

William:
No comment.

We still have a few more questions to answer so there will be more question and answer sessions. Feel free to ask us more questions as always.

I Can't Help Having This Effect on Men


William was gone all day today so I was all alone doing wifey things, like "cleaning" and stalking his facebook because I missed him. I was rescued from my domestic boredom by my young, handsome, prince Ronald Knox who called me to go shopping with him. Of course I had to pay for lunch because every time I go out with Ronald I have to pay. You would think a playboy like Knoxie would know how to treat a lady to lunch.

Other than that we had a charming discussion about death and what you would do if you found out that you had a week to live. This then lead to a discussion about planning our funerals. We cant really die like you humans can so it was a little less of a morbid topic for us I guess...

So what would you do if you had a week left to live? (I'm not dropping any of you any hints or anything...)

Right, so some of you wanted to know about how jealous my darling William gets around other people, and the answer is yes he gets very jealous. I don't really get hit on that often but that still doesn't stop any male admirers at work magically transferring to new departments or developing spontaneous black eyes. He once requested to have another shinigami transferred to the Alaska branch simply because he mentioned that he liked me.

Oh and if I flirt too much I usually end up handcuffed on his office floor and left for hours.

Aw I love Will and his possessiveness. It is so flattering when men fight over you~

I DONT Want Candy


I'm blogging from work again! I haven't blogged from here in Ages. So I'm stuck doing work at 1am again and I thought I would post a little something to procrastinate.

So Will and I got woken up by something interesting this morning. We received a giant box of American sweets in the post. I nice colleague of William's from the USA sent us it just in time for Easter. After sampling my share of the package contents I have discovered a few things:

1) Americans love their sugar.
2) American sweets are too sweet for my delicate palate.
3) I don't like their chocolate.

No offence to my American readers but I don't really like your sweeties. I'll sit and eat my Cadbury's chocolate instead.

Also I apologise on behalf of Ronald for his blogging stupidity. He is high on Peeps.

Thank you Magz for sending us the box of sweets. They were much appreciated by everyone here at shinigami London branch. And the fact that I said that they were too sugary still didn't stop me polishing off a box of nerds and 2 packets of peeps and turning my tongue blue. xx

OH! And thank you to everyone who sent me and William questions. We will definitely be doing one of those Q/A things together again since we got so many questions sent to us last night. Keep them coming and we will keep answering them.

Tuesday 19 April 2011

The Will and I Q/A Session


Do the both of you have plushies of each other?
Grell: YES! They're so cute! I make them kiss!

William: All such stupid items in our house belong to Grell. I do not need nor want a plushie!


How was William in hi school and did you already love him then?

Grell: He was just as handsome. He was my prince charming! It was love at first SIGHT!

William: ...No comment

If you could take each other anywhere in the world for a romantic date, where and why?
Grell: Anywhere! Everywhere! Anywhere~ with a hotel~room~

William: Italy, I have always been interested in going sight seeing there. I guess Grell could come if he wanted too.


What is the most annoying thing about the other one?

Grell: He can be uptight, jealous and a bit of a nag.

William: Where do I start? He's whiny, lazy and clingy. He borrows my shirts and gets blood stains on them. He falls asleep on my arm and it goes numb. He keeps touching my hair. He filled my fridge with diet yogurt. He doesn't understand the word "unprofessional". He borrows my glasses when he can't find his own. He steals the covers and keeps me up all night with his incessant talking and cuddling. Oh and he keeps making me write things for his stupid blog.


What do you think of all the fanfic/art of you two? (ie willxsebby, grellxsebby, undiexwill etc)

Grell: I save tons of fanart of myself and I'm a little addicted to fanfic's of Sebby and I. Hm~ Just thinking about it makes me shudder!! So many handsome men for me to play with in fan literature!

William:I don't read fanfiction and I don't care for fanart, but I have heard about them. I would NEVER do such things with a vile, disgusting, soul stealing creature!

We will, somewhat, happily do another one of these if we get any more questions so feel free to ask any more.

Shopping and a Bit of a Confession

I have to confess to something before Ronald Knox mentions it on his blog and then I will never hear the end of it. At the moment I am missing half an eyebrow. I told William and the other shinigami that Ronald did it to me when he was messing around but really I did it myself, by accident when I was reshaping my eyebrows. So now everyone knows that half of my left eyebrow has been drawn on for the last few days. Happy now Ronald????

Right so back to less irritating matters:


I dragged William shopping today! Well it wasn't really dragged it was more like I offered to buy him dinner if he accompanied me clothes shopping. (I got a shopping trip AND a date. I'm so clever!) I'm actually starting to wonder what I used to do without William. He makes a wonderful shopping bag carrier, he opens jars for me, he's handy for keeping me warm and he acts like a bodyguard. ...Even though he spent our dinner date lecturing the waitress and glaring at the small children seated near us.

Oh he even bought me a present! I now own a shirt with the word Uke print on it in rather large letters. Well...at least it will go with the "Property of William T Spears" underwear he bought me for Valentines day.

And before anyone asks here is a list of everything I bought while shopping
(Since my Grellettes like to know the tiny details of my life)

-A red floral dress.
-A vintage t-shirt saying "Love forever" on it.
-New fake eyelashes.
-New red nail polish
-New black trousers
-Red heart covered pajamas
-The Uke T-shirt (I didn't buy it but its on the list)

There you go~ that was my entire shopping list for the afternoon.

Random Stories About My Co-workers


I've been asked to share some more embarrassing and interesting tales about my two darling co-workers, William and Ronald. I'm dreadfully sorry boys but you know how I love to gossip about the two of you~

William Stories / Facts (Will approved ones so he wont hurt me)

He refuses to ask for directions. We once did a job together in Dublin and we ended up lost for two hours all because he refused to ask anyone for directions.

He gets sea sick and has to take sea sickness meds every time he has to go on a boat.

He lost his glasses once and accidentally kissed Ronald...twice.

Will and I took a job in Scotland and got attacked by swans.

He plucks his eyebrows.


Ronald Knox Stories/ Facts


He lost his shoes in a river the first time he worked with me and William, and Will had to fish them out of the water with a fishing rod.

He once TRIED to be a vegetarian once to impress a girl. It lasted two days.

Ronald and I once lost a bet and as a punishment we had to be publicly hung. William took photos off our facial expressions on the way down. (Here's to not being able to die)

Last Christmas he woke up after the office party in a Mrs Claus outfit. He couldn't find his real clothes and had to wander around the office trying to find them in the rather short dress.

He once fell out of a tree and landed on top of William. (I wasn't sure which section to put this one in)


I think that should be enough to keep you all happy. I'm sorry boys but its not my fault that people find you both so entertaining~

How to Get Your Man ~


I apologise for my lack of blogs lately. Everything has been so dull around here lately that I can hardly think of anything to write about. Luckily for me I got a message asking me to share my extensive knowledge of men. Of course I am more than happy to instruct you all on how to find your red strings, your soul mates, so here are a few of my fabulous man hunting tips.

Remember you are irresistible

Always believe that you are beautiful and that any man would DIE to have you, and any man who says he doesn't like you just doesn't know that he loves you yet.

Never send mixed signals
If you like someone tell them, often. Men can be silly, they will never work out that you like them if you don't tell them yourself.

Men like attention
Complements, pet names, kisses and other attentive actions show men that you care. Even if they are not your boyfriend...yet

Learn everything about your love target
I've been told this is called "stalking" but how else are you supposed to learn about the man you love? Some people just don't understand true love~!

All is fair in love and war

Of course if a man is devilishly handsome then you will probably find more than one suitor after his attention. Arranging a few little "accidents" for these people will clear all obstacles out of the path of your true love.

Those are just a few of my tips to get yourself the man of your dreams. The pursuit of love it all about finding your red string, your happily ever after. I just hope I helped just a little

21st Century Nonsense (A forced blog by William T Spears)

I have been "requested" to come back to this stupid thing and write another article for Grell Sutcliff because he cant think of anything to write today. Personally I don't see why I should do anything to keep you humans entertained but since he wont shut up about it I will write this to stop his incessant whining. He's lucky I have been in a good mood lately or I would not have even considered doing this.

According to Grell he wrote a blog a month ago listing his favourite 21st century devices and he wants me to do the same.

1. My blackberry.
2. My i-pad: It saves me from having to carry around large amounts of paper work while out in the field.
3. My computer.
4. Email.
5. The television.
6. Earplugs: A necessity when living with Grell.

I hope that will be enough to keep my idiotic companion happy for the time being.

A few finishing points:

Ronald Knox, Grell read me your blog and I shall be having a word with you about those missing office supplies.

I wish for an apology from who ever it was convinced Grell to mess up my hair this evening. I know it was one of his so called "Grellettes" or whatever silly name his readers go by.

Before anyone asks I will NOT start a blog of my own. I have much better things to do than entertain mortals and procrastinate. IF I have something to say I will instruct Grell to document it or post it on his blog myself.

That will be all

Lady Who Lunches


I'm in an exceptionally good mood at the moment as William has invited me out for tea after work tomorrow. He is even letting me choose where we go. Oo I love it when he is in a good mood! I might just dress up for the occasion (if he'll let me) I think this would an occasion for my little red dress. It is perfect for tea!

Well I brought the cakes I made into work today. Sadly Ronald found them in the fridge and ate them all before I could give them away. Well at least someone enjoyed them. (I still punished him by making him clean my death scythe. The blade is all shiny now!)

I think that shall be all from me tonight. I am a little sleepy and I have managed to get over my recent fear of sleeping. Good night~

Scared to DEATH☆

It is 5am and I am writing a blog to avoid sleeping. I had a terrible nightmare last night and I am a little frightened of going to bed now. It was so scary I woke up and spent an hour clinging to William who didn't really appreciate me waking him up early on one of his few days off in the week. I haven't had nightmares in years.

So other than my terrible night terrors. We got a cat! Well Ronald did, kinda. He ran it over with his lawnmower and is now paying for its vets bills to patch the little stray up. I would explain the whole thing but he explains it better on his Blog

A lot of you have been asking about the rocky road I made the other day and it turned out fabulous! I actually made something that didn't get burnt or under cooked. William ate most of it and Eric has been trying to steal the stack I saved for the shinigami who did my paper work for me. So Success! Usually when people find out I made something they avoid it so this is a first!

I thought I would share the recipe for it below.




I want to bake something else. Any ideas?

Sebby Sighted!!!!!!!


I know I promised to post yesterday but Ronald and I got so busy with our little mission that I didn't have the time. We had our hands full with excessive amounts of deaths and overtime. But never mind all that boring nonsense...SEBBY WAS THERE!!!!!! (So was the brat but no one really cares about him) He was so perfect and handsome. I haven't seen him in ages! I wish I had brought my camera. Sadly with Ronald and Ciel being third and forth wheels me and my darling Sebastian had no time to be alone. Of course he was whisked away by the brat once he was finished what ever it was he was doing there, leaving me disappointed as always. Bah men! They're always so work orientated.

Speaking of work orientated men, I moved the first box of my belongings into William's place. It was mainly bed furnishings and dolls which lead to a bit of a lovers spat about pillow organisation and clutter. It ended up with Will's side of the bed remaining the same and my side piled a little too high with cushions. I might have to reconsider the number of pillows I sleep with.

Also remember how I posted a blog about my favourite 21st century inventions? Well Will is in a video conference at the moment in his/Our living room and I have been banished to bedroom, and not in a fun way. Who works at 12 o'clock at night?! I wonder if he would strip on camera if I logged on...well there is only one way to find out...

Sunday 3 April 2011

Replies of DEATH☆

I was going to make this a Sebby Sunday but I have a lot to reply too and images of my darling Sebby take up so much space.

So before I respond to comments etc I want to thank HAPPYWISE for sending me a giant parcel of artwork along with a William plushie. Thank you! I was going to make a Will doll myself but I used all my material making Sebastians. (I cant help it I have an addiction to his hotness) But yes the William doll is now our office mascot as it creeps Ronald out with its little frowny expression and makes him feel like he should be doing work. So thank you for that! Ron now has motivation when the real Will isn't around! And I have something to snuggle.


Replying to Messages:


No One Puts Grelly in the Corner
Yes I own too many clothes and since writing that blog I've bought even more. I wonder if they do rehab for shopping...

Such DRAMA!
William has fixed all the drama with his fan girls and they have left me alone. Yippee!! I didn't know you could fix problems without killing something.

NEWS! NEWS! NEWS! NEWS!
An extended version of the overtime/shoe equation:

(Me + Overtime) = (More Money + Shops) = Shoes!

And yes William I watch you sleep, just as I know that you watch me sleep. (And don't say its because I snore. Ladies don't snore!)

Other Blogs
And thank you to everyone who cheered me on when I was acting supervisor. I got everything sorted in the end and Will is back and I have no intention of taking over his job EVER. It was horrible and stressful. I'm happy being a humble little dispatcher.

...Come to think of it, what did happen to that trainee I lost in the library? Maybe I should check on that...


Other Stuff



And serifinaxxx Grell-ed up her fabric by stitching my wonderful face into it. Just what every piece of material needs! A little touch of me!

OK so I was sitting talking to Ronald today about blogs (he has one but never remembers to up date it) and we were thinking: Is there anything you guys would like to know? Because I've enjoyed answering people's questions in my blogs and writing beauty advice etc. So is there anything you would like me to write about? We're a couple of centuries old so we could even share some interesting past stories if you wanted. (We have quite a few) So let me know what you think. If not I'll just keep updating as always. Its not like my life is going to turn dull all of a sudden.

Sorry for spending another blog replying to people. Things will definitely be more interesting tomorrow with the start of me and Ronald's little "mission".

So buh bye now!

NEWS! NEWS! NEWS! NEWS!


I'M MOVING IN WITH WILLIAM!!!!

My darling prince charming thought that since I spend so much time at his place that I should stay there, permanently. Hopefully he'll let me redecorate. His house is too masculine and organised. It needs a little touch of yours truly around the place. I CANT wait!! I get to watch my darling Will sleep everyday and be his little wifey. (I'm going to have to learn how to cook)

Sadly though I wont have time to pack just yet as I will be doing a rather long job in town with Ronald Knox. I was supposed to be teamed up with Alan but since he's sick again I'm back to working with Ronald. I'll keep you all up to date with our little mission since Will gave me a new phone so I can keep him (and my adoring public) up dated on our progress. Yeah with all these 21st century gadgets there is no need for those stupid pigeons.

Hopefully there wont be too much overtime involved but:

Me + Overtime = Shoes!


So buh bye now~

I Miss my Red Nail Polish

This is going to be a short blog. I know I write that all the time and then I end up gossiping about my fabulous life for five paragraphs but this one will be a very short blog my by usual talkative "short blog" standards.

So a few things about my day:

1) I spent most of the day in a terrible mood for some unknown reason, hence my inability to write a long blog today.

2) Will finally let me confront the person who was calling me names. (LOVE YOU WILL!!)

3) Due to his deactivation of his twitter account I got Will to made a facebook and decided to join him. (Link over that the side somewhere) We're currently debating what to set our relationship status as. We're both a little confused.

4) I ran out of red nail polish. (This point is more of a personal memo to myself to go buy a new one)

So yeah that is everything for today because I'm sleepy and need to go finish doing my hair and spamming Will's facebook.

Buh Bye Now~

Grell
