The Spoiler Zone is still the only place you can discuss KOTW, but while you're doing that, this is a book review that Amazing Phil did on Blue Peter. I used to watch Blue Peter all the time when I was growing up, so it's pretty cool to be featured on it, and I reckon Phil did a fantastic job of grabbing the attention of non-Skulduggery readers.
It's also really nice to catch a few glimpses of Skulduggery himself... I think the exploding pillar thing is EXCELLENT... and it really makes me want a Skulduggery movie even more...

*nods graciously to Val*
I'm on IPod.
*is still swaying with Robin*
*twirls her*
I love your dress Val. So dark. *grins*
*laughs* Thanks Hel. Had to photoshop the background to make it less colourful. I love your dress too!
I'm going to have to go soon, Flame.
*speaks over shoulder* Ah, okay. There is one problem with this dress, I can't climb on people.
It's a bit strange my dress. I'll change eventually.
One problem with mine, too. I can trip on the hem.
*trips on the hem*
I'm dancing, Hel. There'd be no climbing.
Robin, noo. *pouts and begins waltzing gracefully off together*
There's always climbing Flame. Just not right now.
*hands Val's arm* Are you okay?
*holds
*gets up and starts running around again*
I'm fine! I've gotten so used to tripping I barely notice anymore!
*thinks* Hmmm... Last time I tripped the most was at a wedding...
I'm not good in heels.
*puts a hand of Flame's arm and stops* I have to go. I'll be back later.
Okay... Maybe you should take them off...
Bye Robin! *waves frantically*
Goodbye Robin *waves while smiling*
Goodnight!
*waves and leaves the ball... for now*
Bye Robin;)
Why hello.
*enters ball with a swoosh of her glorious dress*
Anyone care to dance?
Oh, trust me Helena, I'm not wearing heels. *lefts up bottom dress just enough to point to combat boots*
*sways in tune to the music while waiting for someone to reply*
Hi Kestrel!
Oh,dear. Val, you do realize that combat boots absolutely do NOT match that dress?
Hello VAl
*is trying to talk like someone at a real ball*
Yes, I do. But that's why full length dresses are useful.
*fails at talking like I'm at a real ball*
True. Mine is full length, and strapless, but the Google thingy made me crop it a bit.
I, However am wearing wonderful heels that will never match anything but this dress.(I borrowed them from China)
*lifts up dress and shows them off*
Wow, those combats boots are amazing! Can I look again? I need new boots.
*is impressed anyone can balance themselves in heels*
Hello, Hel dear.
How are you this fine *looks at watch* morning?
I can't. I am using my symbols to glide a bit above the ground. *giggles*
Ah. I should learn to do that. But I'm sure I'd run into the wall anyway. *nods*
Im going sleep- bye!
Does anyone care to dance?
*walks out onto the middle of the dance floor and looks back, hoping that she will be followed*
Bye Flame.
I'm pretty good. Though, this dress is terribly annoying, I think I might change.
Sadly, I must now leave. I shall be here again in about an hour. *bows and walks out*
Hello!
Bye Flame! Bye Kestrel! *waves in my usual crazy person fashion*
Hello Lauren! We're having a Requiem Ball right now!
Awesome! Can I join in?
Sure!
We're all having our pictures as what we'd wear to the Ball... Most of us just went on Google images and picked something.
Hey!
Hi Maya!
Ahahaha! I love the dress! You said you were going to wear a bow tie! XD
Okay thank you!! I'll change my picture soon..
Thanks! :D
Thanks! :D
You're welcome!
*wanders off to the refreshments area* *frowns about there being no soda*
*giggles while twirling*
*wanders around, talking to Skulduggery*
Do you think I should change? I just made another dress...
Hello again! *makes another dramatic entrance*. Are there any canapés?
ARGH! Stupid internet >:(
ANyway I was going to say (before my internet was being annoying)
Your dress is Jepicly awesomeness!
Hel- if you feel it to be nesscesary.
*Hands Kestrel penguin-shaped canapes*
Of course there is!
Why thank you Maya. *sips appreciatively*
Anyone care for a dance?
Oh dear, I've just spotted Elder Strom. *edges away*
I would care for a dance!
Maya- whose dress is Jepivalky awesomeness?
Join me then. *bows to Eve and leads her onto the dance floor*
*walks over to Dexter Vex* *lets him kiss hand*
*looks for China in order to thank her for lending these magnificent shoes*
*leads Vex on to dancefloor*
Hi Eve! Cool dress!
Hello again Val. Tell me, are we expecting another attack?
*dances with Kestrel*
:P
*trips from shoes*
*goes up to Skulduggery*
V: I am Valkyrie Cain from the future!
S: You're thirteen and you're from the future?!
V: Future me told past me - this me - that I need to save the world with you! Right now! I must take you back to the future and the past!
S: Well then, let's go.
V: Nah, I'm having fun here.
*wanders off*
wow that video is incredible!!! I love how they made skulduggery <3 why cant it be a movie :D
Lauren, in order to avoid that type of circumstance, levitate yourself a couple millimeters above the ground
*grins,and talks to Eve as we dance*
*laughs at Vals incredibly confusing dialogue*
I'm not used to high heels.. oh well
*dances with a random person*
My internet just turned off again *RAGE*
Hi everyone!
Hello Alexandra. Not to be rude, but where is your formal attire?
Ah thank you Kestrel
My confusing dialogue is QUITE amazing.
*laughs at Skulduggery's confusion*
Hello Maya. Who's dress is Jepically cool?
Hey Maya
*walks over leaving Vex dancing by himself for a while* *points over shoulder* I said I'd get him a drink. *suddenly looks interested* So, what are you talking about?
I wonder if Skul has his facáde up or not.
Nah, he wouldn't.
Hel, not much at all really. I am dancing with Eve.
It's just his skull. The one with the high cheekbones.
Of course not, he's at a ball with magical people. But I can still tell he's confused...
*gives Skulduggery a crazy look and laughs*
Get Vex one of the penguin canapés.
*goes back to dancing*
Val, he does tend to hold his head a bit differently when he's confused.
Will do.
*twirls around* Like my new dress? This picture looks more like me.
*goes off to get a few penguin canapes.
My cousin is coming to visit tomorrow.
I'm visiting my cousin today. And yesterday. And tomorrow and the fay after that.
At least he likes SP...
Hel- it's beautiful. Would you mind telling me where you found it?
*day, not fay
*gives canapes to Vex and tells him to take a break from dancing* We'll continue later. *he complains* Am I really that great a dancer? *laughs*
I do say, I am having quite troublesome difficulty examining my own gown. I do wonder if it is visible at the moment.
Ah Kestrel, I made it.
Val- well she's technically my dads cousin. Im really excited to see her and all, but KotW is likely to come and I wont be able to read it.
Eve, it's there.
Ohhhhhh. Well, hopefully you can still read it...
My family knows that if KOTW came they wouldn't be able to keep me from reading it... I would glue myself to the ceiling if it meant I could read it.
Nice, penguin canapés.
No matter. We are here to enjoy ourselves, are we not?
They ARE delicious
My parents don't understand how completely and utterly obsessed I am. They will think I am rude.
Kestrel, Valkyrie, Helena, Lauren, your dresses are all divine.
Who made them? They taste wonderful.
So do mine. No one in my family understands.
I have to go eat dinner now, bye!
*Tells Skulduggery I was going back to the future, and vanishes, leaving him confused*
Eve-indeed. *decides to find a date* *looks around for cute guy* *finds one and rushes over*
Thank you Eve. You dress is gorgeous.
Thank you Eve. Yours is beautiful as well. Bye Val!
*starts talking to a random person*
Farewell, Valkyrie!
And I am left alone. Although the music IS comforting.
*dances with a live chicken*
See ya Val!!
*discovers cute guys name is Olorcen Someg*
*is slightly taken aback, but persevered*
I wonder if Ghastley is having trouble getting in again..
Eve- I can't be bothered to think of something clever to say.
*goes over to the refreshments* *drinks something that looks like lemonade*
I doubt it Lauren. Val was talking to him wasn't she?
*picks up another canapé and sips appreciatively again*
Ah yes she was. That was before I got here.
That didn't taste like lemonade..
I have prepared fairy bread! Mashing the fairies was a challenge, but they stick to the bread easily if you add butter.
*passes around a crystal tray of fairy bread*
*Takes one and sniffs cautiously* oh i almost forgot! *passes around Skul-cakes.
Wonderful Eve. I imagine it was a challenge.. *takes some fairy bread*
BbS
Hehehe *takes a Skul-cake as well*
*nibbles Skul-cake elegantly* What a delightful taste!
Okay Kestrel
Farewell, Miss LeStarre!
*carefully taste the fairy bread*
Eve you did a magnificent job with that fairy bread. Taste wonderful.
The fairy bread is wonderful! Was one of the fairies named Sadistically Tortura by any chance?
*Sadistica not Sadistically.
This is the best Requiem Ball I have ever been to.
I loved the Skul-cakes to Kestrel!
You're welcome. The Ball is amazing. The only way it could be better would be if Derek showed up.
*goes over to talk to Olorcen Someg again*
Why thank you! I try my best. There will be more exquisite food later!
Was Miss Tortura the one with green wings? She was magnificently hard to catch. She kept flying away from the sledge-hammer at the last minute.
*dances with Ravel*
Mr Someg sounds charming. I am tempted to steal him from you!
Yes Derek has to come on sometime!
*continues to dance with Ravel*
Don't you dare Eve! He has a magnificent sense of humor!
*leads Olorcen Someg onto dance floor*
*looks at doors as a person walks in* Oh it's just Hansard Kray..
*stops dancing with Ravel*
Sorry guys I have to go, be back later.
*waves Hansard off, and continues to dance with Olorcen Someg*
Goodbye Lauren!
*waves hand and changes music to something slow and dreamy*
Hello!
*Make a grand entrance and frowns at Dexter Dancing with other women*
*smiles beautifully at Someg*
*sees Hansard*
Never mind, I shall dance with HIM!
*twirls her way to Hansard*
Good morning, Mr Kray, would you-
*Hansard walks away*
...How rude!
Death! Hello! *kisses both cheeks and looks at Dexter disgustedly*
Your dress is amazing!
How is every body?
Oh! Skulduggery is over there!
*Walks over to dace with Skulduggery*
Would you care to dance?
Of course!
*Starts waltzing*
Oh thank you! I had to kill someone to get it
Farewell, Lauren!
*Walks to Dexter*
JERK!
@Death
The most efficient way to get a dress nowadays. ;)
Olorcen Someg is soooooooo much better that Vex and Kray. He's my age for Golden God's sakes!
Please, Death! Dexter may be a horrible person, but we do not use that kind of language at a formal dance!
I know, this one was just SO beautiful. It was originally one of China's. Then she gave it to one of her students...
It wasn't around anyone, and he is! He said he would pick me up at 11! I had to walk in these heels!
*smiles* ...And you took advantage of their early learning stage. How deliciously clever of you.
I promised to save Eden a dance, he won't be here for quite some time, will he?
*Walks up to Ghastly*
"Ghastly, I am so very, very sorry. Would you care to dance?"
"Of course I wouldn't"
*Starts dancing*
Oh, poor Death! Have some fairy bread!
Well China lent me these heels WILLINGLY. although, il admit, your dress is wonderful.
And SKULCAKES!
Oh, thanks! And I bet if I asked China, she'd let me borrow a dress. I'll go ask! Be back soon!
Sorry Ghastly, I'm going to go ask China for something!
How is this???
I didn't even have to threaten her for this! She was just about to put it in the bin!
Awesomely cool. Do you know the secret to walking in heels?
*leaves Olorcen Someg in order to gossip*
Yes and no, you put on foot in front of the other?
Oh Death, that dress is EXQUSITE!
You levitate a tiny bit above the floor so you don't trip.
Oooh gosh...*mutters* dont think im not watching you Pleasant
ZAF! *tugs Olorcen Someg forward* Meet Olorcen Someg!
I can't! I'm an Adept!
And thank you!
Death-so ami. I'm a symbolist, and I have one that does that.
Greeting! *shakes their hand*
HE is the guy I met at the Ball!
And Alexander Mythology walks in right then and there, eyes swiveling to watch him stride gracefully across the room.
Hello Mythology!
*begins dancincing with Olorcen again*
Hello everyone. Kestrel, Zafira.
*Smiles charmingly*
Hi Mythology! Want to dance?
O.o idk anyone lol!!! Le American Grand Mage!
Wbd strange mother wants to bake cookies 10:20pn

Have a penguin canapé everyone!
Thanks!
Penguin??? I like penguins actually
Welcome. Has Vex acknowledged your presence yet?
Zaf- they weren't my idea, but they are delicious.
Zafira!
*glides over to Zafira and kisses both cheeks* So glad you could join us!
I cant wait to see our host in a tux (Derek). Oooh or dancing!!!
*twirls giggling girly*
Yes and he like the dress!
*Gestures over to Dex, wide eyed and open mouthed looking at me*
Your dress is stunning, Zafira.
And you look dashing, Mythology! Help yourself to some fairy bread!
Aah hi Eve!
*smiles*
Ooh as do you
Craaap. Are we dedicating during the ball?
Oh, isn't this simply wonderful?
Zafira! Mind your mouth! This is a formal occassion!
It is. Absolutely amazing. We should all light candles and throw them in the volcano.
Sorry its late im not thinking!!! And are dedicating?
Eve, while that is true, she poses a question needing an answer.
