Hello all.
Just got back from a TV thing that will be aired in Ireland sometime in May (I'll let you know when it's on so you can YouTube my awesomeness). It's been a long, amusing day, and all I want to do is relax, watch some TV, and generally chill out, so I'll be announcing the title of Book 7 tomorrow instead of today. Hope you understand.
As many of you know by now, every three books have a certain motif when it comes to titles. For instance, the middle trilogy was short, sharp and to the point. The final trilogy (sob) will have a completely different approach, as exemplified by the Greatest Title Ever Thought Up. I'm still writing the thing, and the deadline is fast approaching, so from tomorrow on it's full speed ahead. I only hope that the finished book lives up to what I'm calling it. Oh, I was totally joking about waiting until tomorrow to announce this, by the way. Sorry about that. Heh.
Ladies and gentlemen, in the final days of August of this year, the new Skulduggery Pleasant masterpiece will be released, and it will be called...
Skulduggery Pleasant: Kingdom Of The Wicked.

Zath, e-mail.

*steps out of a bundle of shadows*
Hello again.
*shadow walks back in and quickly smashes fist into the side of Dylan's head*
Nay
*looks at picture*
I don't know which one I like better. I suppose it doesn't really matter though.
Ah, crap, not this again.
Why don't you two just find a tree and leave us alone?
*grins at the swiftness of Nag's attack and swings chain, sending a fleet of shadow waves into Nixion*
...What does a tree have to do with any of this?
-Heals wound inflicted to head-
I knew you'd come about again.
*laughs as Nixion is blown back and whips a tendril of shadows at Zathract*
What would you say if I said I were going to your side?
This seems like a situation where a side needs to be taken, and it seems I'm on Sparky's at the moment.
*faces Zathract*
I was innterupted before.
*whips a tendril of shadows into his chest*
SH*T!!!
*groans*
Damn true name people...
-Sits on branch in tall tree-
-Aims hand at Zath and heals-
-Does same to Nixion-
There.
*staggers back at the two tendrils of darkness crash into him*
Arg...Not fair, double team up on...
*looks around*
THE SQUID! LOOK, A SQUID, KILL THAT THING!
*points wildly at lake*
Well, since Sparky attacked me, and Mist laughed, im staying out of this...
Time for dinner!
Bye!
Nix, I did not laugh, and he- *points at Nagier* - is not me.
Bye Sparky!
*growls*
That means that I needs to go too, unfortunately.
Bye.
*watches as Sparky runs off*
...Does this mean Crucify is leaving too?
Yay!
*does victory dance*
btw Mist, i'm pracally giving you all th info for the whole book, so it might take a while
Bye then.
*smiles at Crucify, then hurls a fist at Zathract*
That's fine, Nix.
Arg!
*staggers back again*
Wait...how are you even here?!
Crucify.
What if I were to join you?
Oh, that.
*grins darkly*
I don't need to have you WANT me to come in anymore.
-Heals Zathract again-
*looks at Dylan, then bursts out laughing*
What?! How?
*looks at the new page*
...What is this?
Oh, I tweaked a few things yesterday.
You know. You're a hacker, I guess I am too.
What?
I've learned my true name. Trust me, I'm very powerful. You underestimate me.
I'm not a hacker.
Oh, yes. I like to refer to him as the "idiot in front of the computer".
REMEMBER TO DEDICATE THIS TIME!!!
Right, I'm not here.
BYE!!!
I am not an idiot.
Yeah, yeah, whatever.
*socks idiot in the jaw*
What do you do? Dedicate?
Oh, yes. Last page goes to Eve the ROCK, 11 pages ahead now.
Sparky, you still need to dedicate from yesterday.
Nagier, whenever you get first, you are supposed to let the person who is your other half dedicate the page.
oh golden god...
NAGIER!
ANSWER ME!
Mist, i've got more multiply personalities than the next guy, but this is just weird
*multiple
Forget that, I'll dedicate.
*turns to pickle and laughs*
You are no where near as powerful as I am. Or Crucify. My GIVEN name is a True name which means I have the power of that, AND more as I have gained power since I was created. To add on top of that, I am also the other half of Zathract here and also have a True Name for myself to discover.
I could crush you if I wanted to.
Sad Nagier.
You underestimate me.
-Eyes go up and all you see is the whites of my eyes, and eyes turn black-
-Grows aura that looks like sunset and every living thing around me dies-
-Grins at Nagier-
Try me.
well, since i am on of the few on this blog that has keept my normallity, i'll just be watching
*maintains a bored expression*
No. You aren't worth it.
Nagier.
You can't hurt me.
With my true name, nothing can hurt me. And, this is just a little comment, who says... there is only one Book of Names?
-Grins at-
>sigh<
Mist, email
*shakes head*
No, pickle thing. I CAN hurt you. Badly. A lot. I can kill you easily.
You are the one who can't hurt me. And I mean this literally because I can't feel ANYTHING. Ever since I died I have been nothing but eternally numb. I can still kill you though.
i mean really, no wonder i feel left out
You've all desided that trying to kill eacdh other is better than the talking we used to do...
Try me.
for the love of pickles on ice...
*laughs again*
Firstly, there IS only one Book of Names.
Secondly, it wouldn't matter if there was a second one because I am not a real person. I have all the qualities of a real person, but I am simply an incarnation of Zathract Mist's rage after The Incident.
*laughs as Mist sags*
He doesn't like to talk about that.
Anyway, even if I WAS a real person, my Names would not be in there as I have already died.
*sags*
Replied, Nix...
replied
twice
Replied.
this place seems... to different
I don't like the change
[[Dylan, Nagier actually IS everything he says he is. He and Crucify are more powerful than anyone here right now.]]
replied
wish i was here for the change...
I was here for every other change, but i miss one, and im left behind
That's exactly right.
*leans on Nag's shoulder*
I'm only here very briefly, with just enough time to reming Nag to dedicate.
Or will everyone stop talking because I came?
has anyone heard from Izz in a while?
she seems to have dissapeared
Ah, dedications.
*shrugs*
This page is dedicated to Crucify Arlovskaya.
*looks around casually and sees Dylan*
You do realize that you aren't evil, and therefore, you can't team up with us.
That, and I find you annoying.
And you aren't as powerful as us.
And just because you know your true name doesn't automatically make you evil.
I'm not entirely sure how this dedicating thing works, but I think I did it right...
No, Crucify.
-Jumps down from tree in front of him so he can see my true name unleashed. [Black eyes, sunset aura, any plant around me dies and is floating above ground-
What was the incident Zath had? I think I can guess. In a fit of rage, Zathract accidentally created a seperate being from him, and that being was made of pure rage and anger?
*seconds what Crucify said because I can't be bothered to type up smart agreements*
Thank you Nag, that was awfully nice.
*grins at him evilly*
I want to attack something now.
*laughs*
In the short term. It's far more complex than that in reality though.
*stays out of it, and lies in hamock*
*gestures at pickle*
Attack him. He's annoying. Or Zathract, he's always up for a beating.
I know I'm not as powerful as you. But who says I'm not evil? Who says the whole "good guy" act was a phony? Who says I'm not filled with rage ready to slaughter innocent women and children?
I hate you both.
The evil villain couple on blogland...what next?
*sighs at Dylan, walks up to him and pulls head left arm and right leg off of his body*
Do you ever shut up?
And for GOD'S sake, I'm a girl you halfwit.
You, Crucify Arlovoskaya are more powerful than anyone, and you, also, Nagier. But I am powerful, too. Very powerful, and I would gladly work under you as your minion. So what do you say?
-Kneels down to-
-Regenerates new head, arm and leg-
id just like to say anyone who actually asks to be a minion is either going to try and betrau you, or he's usless
*laughs and kicks Dylan's face*
*betray
...*knees Dylan in the face*
No, you keep calling me a guy, which I'm not.
*smiles at Nag*
It's that great minds thing again.
Oh, Zathract, Sparky wants you to check your e-mail.
*kicks Zathract in the gut for good measure*
I'm sorry, Crucify. Tell me your bidding, and it will be done by me. Torture Zathract? Maybe whip Nixion until my arm is too sore to raise it?
Because I will do it.
*grabs Dylan's hair and holds him up from falling backwards*
*draws Sai*
Or should I let him live a bit longer?
Well, you're all in the violence saga, and im left behind in the depression saga
To depressed to try and say something
Dylan, the only thing I want you to do is stop bothering me.
Leave me alone, or shut up.
I need to go unfortunately.
*doubles over*
Ow...Tell her I will...
*shrigs at Nag*
He may become useful in the future.
Bye whatever you call yourself
-Drops to floor and eyes turn back to normal blue colour and passes out-
*lets Dylan drop to the ground*
OK then.
Bye, Crucify.
*kisses Nag quickly*
Bye.
*vanishes*
Nix, this isn't the Violence Saga, this is more of a...I dunno.
But don't be left behind there, depression should be gone! No more!
*puts up sign that says "NO DEPRESSION"*
*almost smiles and knee's Zathract in the stomach again*
Gah...
Why do you enjoy hurting your other half?
*shrugs and socks him across the jaw, then turns to Dylan*
-Wakes up and tugs on Zath's coat-
-Whispers- True name... makes me.. forget who.. I.. am...
-Passes out again and head lands in Zath's lap-
SLAUGHTERHOUSE!!!
I won't kill you.
*pikes him up by the hair again and launches a fist into his face, breaking his nose*
Ah, I love those cracking noises of breaking bones.
-Wakes up and teleports high in tree before Nagier can hurt me-
-Throws pebble down at him and he looks up-
Ello jello.
Uergh...
*gets up and walks off*
Hi, Eve.
Yeah, this is a violence saga
You changed with it, so you can't see it at first
But i can
Can't catch me, Nagier.
-Teleports down, sweeps legs and you falls down and teleports back up-
Aww. Cockroach is on his back, waving his little legs around. I almost feel sorry for you. Almost.
*looks at previous comments* you dedicated to Crucify? Urgh.
Hi Mist! *hugs*
*remains standing as Dyaln kick's legs*
*looks up*
Well, that was entirely useless. Not to mention pathetic.
*Dyaln
*hugs back*
GO BACK TO THE WAY THINGS WERE! back when Mist, multiple personality or not, was only going out with one person
What Nix said.
back when, if there was violence, i could join in
But you're all apocolyptic now
I don't like this Nagier person. He hurts mist, and tries to hurt me, which is just as bad.
Hey, it isn't my fault.
Tell him to go kill himself, then we can be all peacey again.
Yep
Looks like someone stayed behind to the good old blogland with me
-Teleports beside Eve-
Did you get the blood out of your clothes?
No one likes him.
Because other idiots don't count.
Dude, it's your account. You can make him do what you want.
*eyes Dylan suspiciously*
-Nods to Mist-
Very true.
Argh. You don't get it. Do you know what Arcs are?
This is one!
Shut up, Naggy.
Zathract, I'm not joining Nagier.
When my true name engulfs me, it's like Darquesse. I can see it happening, but I can't control it. I'm still on the good side. :)
I'll be back soon.
Dinner.
*kisses Eve quickly and vanishes*
I did not. But it looks cooler like this. Before it was just a carnevale mask on a t shirt. Now it's a blood-smeared carnevale mask on a t shirt!
Yeah.
Zathract, make your account shut up.
bye Mist
Bye Mist. *kisses back*
But, uh, Eve.. it makes you look like a murderer.
-Sprays Pine-O-Cleen on shirt and salesman comes into room-
Salesman: Hi, how are you liking your Pine-O-Cleen?
Me: -Turns salesman into itty bitty pieces-
Eve, are you dating Mist?
Argh! *faints from pine o clean smell*
I am indeed, Dylan.
for some reason, i feel depressed
Hopefully, when im on durring the weekend, i'll feel like my good old self
-Shakes Eve so she wakes up but she doesn't-
Hmm...
-Throws into lake and she starts coughing and spluttering and comes out drenched-
Satisfactory.
*goes into superdryer* why do you think you're depressed, Nix?
Nothing compared to when you cry out at night, trash your room and stand on your window sill threatening to jump because both of your parents are dead. Yeh. Happens to me about... every night.
-Watches Eve tumble around and around-
Hehe.
-Puts Superdryer onto "light speed" and watched red blur tumble around-
Heheheeeee.
*looks at Dylan, then back at Nix*
Hard for you to look, isn't it, Eve?
Kai, you might think you're making me feel better, but you're not
Eve, i really don't know. That annoys me
Now i have to go
Bye!
Dylan. You have no control of the superdryer. And you quite obviously don't know how it works.
Bye, Nix!
Back.
Well, it's not real.
NAGIER!
-Goes down and kills him while he's.. drifted off-
There. Dead. Again..
Bye Nix.
*gets out of super dryer and waits for Mist*
*coughs*
Yay! *hugs*
Dylan, Nagier won't die that easily.
Trust me, I've tried.
*hugs back*
Is he coming back?
Wait.. Mist and Nagiar are connected...
-Sees Mist cough blood-
-Runs to him and attempts to heal, but it doesn't work-
-Zath's eyes turn black, then normal again-
Oh, God.
Nagier is trying to bond with him.
Or not...
Um, yeah, no.
Uh...
Is he coming back?
*coughs awkwardly*
Probably. I don't have any control over him any more.
What...?
That would have been a good storyline, though. Naegier dies and bonds with Zath.
*socks Dylan in the jaw*
And there you go, he's back.
*rolls eyes*
Oh, hi, Nagier.
You were dozing off. I can get your teddy bear.
-Teleports and appears again with stuffed bunny-
Sorry, this is all I could find.
-Hands to and teleports to high branch, and throws pebbles at Nagier-
Oh. Right. I bet if Crucify comes back, he will. They're all over each other, those two.
-Gives socks he put near my jaw-
There you go. :)
Oh, yippee.
-Continues throwing pebbles down at Nagier-
Can I have that? *takes socks*
*rolls eyes again*
I still don't get this evil couple thing though...
Nagier and Crucify, sitting in a tree. K-I-S-S-I-N-G. First comes marriage, and then a baby that is a murderous raving lunatic in a little carriage.
*looks at Mist* me neither.
Nagier is quite still.
-Nagier keeps vague expression on when I throw pebbles at him-
Awkwarrd...
Naggy? Sweetie-pie, are you okay?
*groans and leads Eve into tree-house*
*lies on carpet*
*grins at Dylan* that's the way to go.
*stands there and waits*
-Nagier bursts stuffed bunny into flames-
-Frowns-
Now, what did the bunny do to you?
-Uses power to put hot ashes into his eyes and he attempts to get them out-
Awh! My little Naggy-muffin!
*lies next to Mist and looks at him*
-Kicks Nagier in jaw and teleports back up-
My little pumpkin pie!
*looks back*
...Are you okay?
Never better. You?
-Teleports near Eve and grins-
You two lovebirds.
-Winks and Eve slugs me in the chest-
Okay, okay.
-Teleports back to tree above Naggy-waggy-
*sighs and ignores Dylan*
No.
*rolls eyes at Dylan making me hit him*
Nagier is remaining idle.
Odd, isn't it?
What's wrong?
Nagier. Other than that everything's great I guess...
Wrong account before.. Damn.
Mist, take characteristic for Nagier now, instead of playing lovey-dovey with Eve.
*shakes head* mist, you're the one making him do stuff. If you don't like it, stop.
-Teleports down and puts pear in Nagier's mouth-
HEHEH!
What a surprise when he wakes up.
Wait, on second thought...
-Takes pear out and puts rotten one in-
There.
Shut up, Dylan.
Gtg. Be back later. Bye.
*kisses Eve and vanishes*
