Brrrrr it's getting cold...
After a bizarrely warm November, it's starting to get pretty cold indeed around these parts. Christmas decorations are everywhere. Shopping queues are getting longer. This morning I heard "Merry Christmas (The War is Over)" on the radio- the first Christmas song I've heard in 2011. And a few days ago I posted a TON of cards and letters to readers who had written to me- so it is OFFICIALLY close to Christmas. I can now safely announce it.
You may rejoice.
And the competition winners may ALSO rejoice, because the books I have to sign have finally arrived. I'll sign them all this weekend, have them ready to be picked up on Monday or Tuesday, and then hopefully you'll be getting your prizes over the next few weeks. It'd be cool if you could get them BEFORE Christmas, so that's what we're working towards.
There's still a lot of work going on in my house. I'm getting one of the rooms refurbished- COMPLETELY redesigning it- as well as the kitchen redone, and that's been going on since the start of October. Basically, it means a lot of noise and hassle and interruptions, so I haven't been able to focus on Book Seven, which I really would have liked to have started by now. But hey, I'm not worried. My house is going to RULE when it's all finished, because finally I'll have a proper place to store my toys.
A lot of you may not know this, but I love toys. I collect movie memorabilia and props and stuff, and also comic-book statues. To give you an idea of the kind of things I'm talking about, here are a few action figures...
... and a rather large Iron Man (I've put a book beside him to give you an idea of scale)...
Oh, and here's a 12 inch figure of Sweeny Todd about to give a 12 inch Ichabod Crane a very close shave...
Boy oh boy do I love toys...
As you can imagine, my place is full of equipment boxes right now, so I'm going to leave you with a picture of one of my cats- Pooper- doing what cats love best: clambering into cardboard boxes for no apparent reason.

I read the short story, It's good! :D You should keep writing x3 *hint, hint*
*doesn't really know what high school is*
Erg and I'll be right back once more. I need to get ready for a parade.
I AM PLAYING CELLO AND I SOUND AWESOME.
I felt I needed to say it.
Fan Fiction >xD
No, the Christmas story.
No...
Um... both!
Je ne sais pas >xD
(Sorry, I've got French class on the brain now... xP )
Ooohhh, High School! :D
THANK YOU LUNAR *hugs*
Oh!
Lunar: I think it's your guy's 10th-14th years?
Cello always sounds so beautiful, I totally want to learn x3
Pandora
Flame wrote it, not me :P
but i am writing a part :P
NJ: Flame? Is that your brother/sister?
Okay... So I just entered High School... and it finishes at College... Oh! That actually makes sense! Thanks, Pandora! XD
Oh, hey... did I eat lunch...?
I woke up at, like, eleven (I stayed up until one in the morning last night/morning >xD) so my food clock's a bit... skewed...
I feel like a sandwich.
BRB xD
Something's missing...
I KNOW!!!
I AM AWESOME, AND YOU ARE ALL DIPPERONIE SNOZCUMBERS!!!!!!!!!!
No a guy from on here,
He is a contributor to the blog :P
Wait... Does it INCLUDE 14? Because that would also mean first year of Uni...
I don't know what time I woke up...
I just heard a:
"WAKE UP! YOU NEED TO EAT YOUR BREAKFAST!"
And then I'm pretty sure I lay in bed for about half an hour before I heard:
"YOUR DAD NEEDS TO GET THE CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS OUT THE LOFT, SO YOU NEED TO GO DOWNSTAIRS."
5 more minutes in bed.
"GET.UP."
2 more minutes.
"WHAT HAVE I SAID--"
"I'm putting my dressing gown on!"
"WHY DO YOU NEVER DO ANYTHING WHEN I ASK YOU TO?"
So that was how I woke up.
I had lunch at about 3ish so I'm guessing about 12ish.
I got up at like 10.
My mum rang me at 11ish and i told her that she woke me up :P
My family haven't put up Decorations yet. :/
Inapways wKe up earlier than I'm supposed to...
I woke up a ten to six this morning, and it's Sunday.
I believe that the earlier you wake up, the more you can get done alone, without being watched, like raiding the fridge.
*grins*
SPARKY! BAD! THAT'S AMANDA'S JOB!
(who's username I secretly changed to China Pleasant... >:D)
*laughs maniacally*
Did you send her the video?
I gotta go now.
NIGHT
*hugs everyone, then leaves*
Bye NJ!
Not yet... I plan to just show it to her, because she NEVER checks her email.
Fantastic! You need to send me a video back...
*sees Caelan*
*hypnotizes Caelan with Russia stare*
You have just forgotten everything about toilet training.
*snaps fingers*
Not chatty?
Not chatty at all are you?
Brb.
I just played my mom's favorite Christmas song on cello, and I get to preform it at my church's Christmas play, and my mom loved it...
But, of course, it did sound amazing...
I'm going with my mum to get coffee, BYE!!!
Um... I know I've already disappeared... but I have to go...
So when I came back, everyone started leaving... *sighs*
Whatever.
SOMEONE COME ON SO I CAN AVOID DOING DECORATIONS!
Ummm, hello?
And, by the way Mr. Landy, that Iron Man statue will one day be mine >:D I love Robert Downey Jr and the Iron Man comics :)
Ha, midnight it is! :)
Hi!
Hey, I don't come on here often, so I have no clue who you are! But it's nice to meet you, new friend.
Nice to meet you too!
I'm the one who had the Skulduggery party :)
Ah, that one who has a stange resembelance to one of my more goth friends. Well, hi. You've probabl seen I'm a tad wierd, but now you've been warned I can't be held responsible :D
Well, I'm more than a tad weird - I'm entirely insane. So there's no problem there.
I have returned!
Yay! Sparky!
Sparky go to one of my blogs and look at the most recent post....
AMAZING! That is amazing to know I'm not alone :D I'm 16, and my parents think it's wierd that I'm still so wierd - just because I haven't grown up yet. But I have Skulduggery posters in my room, and they remind me everyday... umm, I'm not sure but they're on my walls and on my door so - just shows I like Skulduggery a lot :P
Anyway, how're you?
Well I have been labeled as 'Completely Bonkers'!
HI! I enjoy meeting new people! XD XD XD
I'm Aimza
A.K.A Crazy Trooper to all felow Killjoys
OH MY GOSH. I'm listening to the radio and one of the lyrics were "your the light in my darkness"! Valkyrie was right! It's a terrible song lyric! What now Caelan? XD XD XD XD XD XD XD

Lol, I'm watching Jesse Cox play Minecraft :P
*backs up into Caelan* *Caelan grabs Sparky instead of me* HA!
O.O

*turns to face Caelan*
No no no! You aren't potty trained.
*points at Caelan's pants*
Hehe... SPARKY'S COVERED IN VAMPIRE PEE. XD
*bear hugs Val V, wiping the pee on her*
What was that?
*faces Caelan again, gives him Russia stare again*
You are a bald eagle, that wants to fly off that cliff over there.
I am curious, do any of my fellow Skulduggery fans play Minecraft, TF2, Skyrim etc?
*punches Sparky to the ground* Jerk.
*jumps into a shower, with clothes on* *jumps back out* *lifts water off clothes*
No.
Okai :P
I don't play any of those games... Occasionally Halo, but that's it.
It's okay, I was just wondering :)
Adventure Quest Worlds.
THE SINGING SWORD IS FRANKIE!!!!!!!!!!!
1st.
*clears throat loudly, getting Sparky and Aimza's attention* *points at the end of the room* Er, Caelan is still there, and the Russia thing is wearing off...
1st.
Wrong hundred Sparky :)
Oh...
Didn't he jump off that convieniently placed cliff?
1st.
No, no, he didn't... *glances over* He looks really angry, though...
I'm going to do this with only one use of magic. Enhanced speed and thought process from the electricity.
*grabs Caelan's head and slams it against the ground four times, and then kicks him in his wet balls*
Excuse me, I need to go and incinerate this shoe...
I'm talking to Amanda on the phone... She's making fun of Harry Potter XD
E-mail the video to her now and make her watch it!
I can't...
Because she can't watch the video on her phone
Amanda should be coming...
And I have to go... Bye!
Okay...
*jumps on Val B's back for the third time today*

Hello PEOPLE!!!
Val V you have made your character (Ivy Animosity) into some short stories, correctimundo?
*jumps on Val V's back, clinging for dear life*
THIS TIME I GET A PIGGYBACK!
Yes, that's correctimundo.
*slaps Sparky in the face repeatedly*
Get *slap* off *slap* my *slap* back *slap* NOW *slap*
*calls Davina Marr* *she comes up and starts slapping Sparky also*
Cool, as soon as I get a computer, I'm gonna writes short fabric about me, Sparky Braginski.
*charges electricity into face*
Slap me again and you'll regret it.
No- Brainer tried to get me to communicate with her from Spain. Guess what? I'm ignoring her.
*Touches Davina Marr's temple, sending electricity straight into her brain*
*grins as she falls to the ground*
*Taps the back of Val V's head*
Hello?
*kicks Marr in the back of the head* I hate your even more than Caelan, which is quite a lot.
I was eating dinner.
Fine I'll get off.
*flips off her back*
Just need to post a few things before signing off.
1) Sorry for disappearing. I was at my city's parade. I passed out candy canes and made people happy. :3
2) AHHHH! My life is complete! I have the Sweeney Todd movie in my possession. *Cue maniacal laugh of glee*
And now I say: Adieu
(>^.^)>Olive Juice friends, olive juice<(^.^<)
She isn't dead you know.
*looks at Marr*
I have an idea!
HEY CAELAN, MARR HERE JUST TRIED TO KILL VAL V!!!!!!!!!!
C: Did she?
S: Yup, in fact if it wasn't for me Val V would be dead right now.
C: Thank you, but why did you call me here?
S: Could you dispose of Marr?
C: Is she dead?
S: *lies through teeth* Yeah, she's dead.
C: Okay. *picks up Marr and runs away*
*watches as Caelan drags Marr's body away* Great, I'll never hear the end of this from him... But at least she's gone now...
So you're cool with me making him think that you will forever need to be saved?
*chuckles*

*whips out cellphone*
Yes Caelan, yes I'll tell you when I leave... Of course yeah. K, bye.
He knows now.
Being a buttmunch about Caelan, who she knows I find incredibly creepy. *glares at Sparky*

Well I'm not scred of Russia. *summons Belarus*

Okay.
*runs and summon Dusk, Sanguine, Tesseract, Caelan, Crux and Marr*
A lot more people hate you and can do something about it.
*ducks under a swipe from Belarus and shocks her into submission*
I can't get rid of them, but I can help you fight them off.
*sees Sparky's mini army* Cruuuuuuuuuuuud...
*punches Caelan, throws him into Dusk, uses air to push Dusk into Sanguine, kicks Crux into Marr, sending everyone stumbling*
*remembers Tesseract and sprints away* *Tesseract tries to follow but trips on everyone*
*gets out Makhira and stabs Crux and Sanguine at the same time, while sending an arc of electricity into the vampires eye sockets*
*continues fighting and shouts to Sparky over the noise* Why'd you summon them all if you hve to fight also??? *kicks Caelan down*
*sees Tesseract coming from corner of eye, but can't get the sword out of Crux and Sanguine, refusing to leave it behind gets stuck, tangled between the two psychopaths*
*Yesseract comes up and breaks all the bones in my right arm*
Ah Jesus!
*sprints back leaving sword behind, tears falling from eyes*
*sees Vile* *gestures to Tesseract* A little help here?!
*Vile looks at Tesseract, then approaces me instead* Oh this is bad... *runs*
okay, I'm really here now. yay.
also, my music is way too sad. I should listen to like...happy kittens singing the abc's or something.
*still crying from pain, grits teeth*
*pulls sword out with left arm and swings wildly at Tesseract*
T: Hah! You must be right handed.
S: What if I am?
T:You can't expect to beat me with your bad arm.
S: You're right. I was never going to beat you using my RIGHT arm.
*increaeses attack with lefthand, throwing Tesseract off his feet*

*turns around and sees Tesseract while he's dead, and sees Skulduggery punch Vile, so Vile explodes* Yes....

*stops for a second*

*shocks Tesseract till he stops moving*
*turns around just in time to dive away from a wave of shadows*
Brb

*shocks Melancholia quick and easy*
I can't wipe than all out at once, MY ARM'S BROKEN...
Or can I?
*punches ground sending everyone off their feet*
That'll do.
*faints from exhaustion and pain*
Hello... Where's Valkyrie?
Because I love Valkyrie... We're meant for each other...
*opens eyes bewildered*
Val V isn't here right now...
*sees Marr get up*
M: You gave me away to the vampire.
S: *winces* So I did.
M: I didn't appeticiate that.
S: Didn't you?
M: No. This is my revenge. *stomps on Sparky's broken arm*
S: Ah! *howls with pain*
M: *leans down over Sparky and steps on her broken arm again, twisting her boot all the way around*
S: *cries out in agony* Please stop..,
I want Valkyrie to come back... I LOVE HER...
M: No.
Hey Sparky I'm back!
*sees Val V*
S: (whispers) Please help me.
M: No one's coming to save you. *picks up Sparky by broken arm*
S: *shrieks with pain*
Yes... Valkyrie is back.
If you give me Valkyrie I will save you.
M: Now let's finish the job. *grabs Tesseracts hand and places it against Sparky's right leg, shattering it*
S: *screams*
OH MY FREAKING GOSH... It's... It's...
*magically heals Sparky* *passes out in terror*
S: (shrieking) PLEASE, PLEASE STOP I'M BEGGING YOU!! *tears of fear and pain dripping from eyes*
M: Let me think for a mo- NO. *places Tesseracts hand against Sparky's left leg*
Valkyrie I LOVE you
*sees Val V pass out*
M: Looks like your savior is gone. She may have healed your right arm and leg, but that's easily broken.
Caelan... I HATE YOU...
*runs from Caelan*
*shoots Marr and Tesseract in the head* *heals Sparky again*
THEY'RE DEAD NOW SPARKY!!!
Caelan, on the other hand, is NOT!
