The Button
This story- which I had intended to be REALLY REALLY short and funny and quirky- eventually became a little longer. And a lot less funny. But this is it.
And it will come down at midnight, Irish time, on the 22nd...
And it has now been taken down... only to reappear in the Skulduggery Pleasant Collection of short stories and novellas, available... um... some time in the spring of 2014...

DEREK WHY DIDN'T YOU LOOK AT YOUR COMMENTS WHEN YOU TOOK DOWN THE STORY??????????????????????????????????????
Because Derek's eeeeeeevvvvviiiiilllllllll.
Ok Derek seriously just talk. Im upset
WE MUST FLIP PANCAKES OVER HIS CRYING BODY!
first we have to make him cry... and I think we're all bringing tears of laughter to his eyes, because that's how evil he is.
Or pathetic we are... I don't know
Derek Landy. Why don't you just share a line or something you just wrote...?
hhmmmm :)?
Please?
*sighs sitting on ground sobbing*
\/\/ | |_ |_ the story be changed in between the time of now and when it's published for good?
That \/\/| |_ |_ worked out nicely.
*pokes Derek with a stick*
*waits for him to come on*
2014 is in a long time.
the spring time, no less.
*yells for Derek*
master?
this is useless.
I give up
*sighs*
Derek is just in a cruel mood tonight.
Im ticked he seriously took it down. Thats just wrong. What is the madness?! Its not like him to be this damn cruel. Im so ticked i called him by his last name. Im seeing red
I think im gonna shut up, i got my book on the line i did send it to him....yeah i like the cover think ill be nice
*frowns at Zaf*
You can't be mad at him for taking it down. He told us he was taking it down. He even took it down later than he had previously said.
CONGRATULATIONS EM!!!!!!!!!!!!
*throws rice*
(sorry if that was out of place, but it had to be said.)
Yeah think its the Irish in me. Im just upset. I didnt think he'd do it.
....No comment here.
Has Rosalie's one been taken down yet? Going to go check...
I thought honestly he'd be like,
BOOM in your face. I LIED to you all and you believed me
Well, you can't be frustrated about that.
(And I kind of, you know, savedittomycomputer....)
OMG! WHOVIANS! LOOK!
http://oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/Tardis?q=Tardis
http://oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/Whovian?q=whovian
Yeah i can.
He didnt even talk...
I exploded Ireland! Im gonna die! He'll get me in my bloody sleep!!!!!
But if he comes for you, that means he has to come to America. And then you can shout at him.
Guys, it's still up on fanfiction, so you can look at it there.
He'll kill me off in a book. He knows my address though...scary image of Derek with a spoon....
I already kinda copied and pasted it into a separate document....
*curls into ball and groans*
I really don't feel good right now... Not at all...
awww
*Holds out a Hershey's Kiss*
You wanna Hershey's Kiss?
I did too xD ithink just about every Minion did. We aint stupid. Derek just was too busy playing with his action figures to realise all of us would
*shakes head*
Hershey's won't make me feel any less sick.
But....IT'S A HERSHEY'S KISS!!
*eats Hershey's Kiss*
*brings Derek-lizard down from tree*
he misses you Val
Though human Derek is going to suffer a horrible painful death from this Ameriminion
I have a bag of them over there, Glee.
*points to them*
They aren't helping, they're just sitting there.
*takes Derek-lizard*
Of course he misses me, I'm the one who brought him to Blogland.
*messes with the real Derek-lizard that I made*
I WANT A HERSHEYS! Pretty please?
I let him share my tree. I think its part of the fact
*holds up one human Derek 's cats*
i hijacked Mammy cat
*pauses movie and thinks for a minute*
I'm watching The Nightmare Before Christmas, wearing Jack Skellington pajamas, and using a Skulduggery Pleasant blanket.
I think there's something wrong with me and skeletons...
Where did you get the blanket? I'd love one of those or was it homemade?
*sees Zaf holding one of Derek's cats*
*takes it and starts petting it*
And im listening to Jekyll and Hyde. With penguin pj's clutching my Christmas card
I was nice to Mammy cat! Derek sprayed her woth aresol! Poor kitty.
My mum sent in a picture to a website that makes blankets. Look, I have a picture of it from when I got it last Christmas.
http://bringingskulduggerytothemasses.blogspot.com/2011/12/merrry-christmas.html
Thats niiice!!! I'd love an SP blanket.
Val i swear i think my Mon laughed. I git so OCD about my bookshelf, the card is by SP books
*hands Ember a Hershey's Kiss*
Hmmm...
*gives Mammy cat catnip*
we should get Derek...hehehe!!
Meanwhile in Ireland, Derek Landy sleeps not realising n Ameriminion was secretly planning kidnapping him
Hi!
I am reading SP to my sister! We're on Chapter 5, she loves it and was begging me to read more, but then we had to go to bed. WIN!
CONGRATULATIONS, EM!
SEE!!! Its epic reading to the younger ones they love it
Heya Kessie! Congratulations! hahaha
Hey its a nice feeling when younger kids get into SP
Hi Zaf! Hi Jubi!
Oh yeah, CONGRATULATIONS CHASE!
AWESOME! I read SP 1-3 to my little sis, and we're on Dark Days together. She loves the voices I do... It's fun.
Grand Mage, she's eight. xD
We are on Page 58.
Hi Tanith!
The only thing I can say with an Irish accent is Skulduggery Pleasant, so whenever it comes up I say it with the accent.
My Irish is so-so, but I can do Tanith (Low)'s British pretty well. For me, Valkyrie sounds Irish, Skulduggery, not so much.
I can do British fairly well.
I need to cultivate Russian so I can do Tesseract.
Hi! How is everyone?
Aah my nephew is six. I owe him KOTW it wasnt out in UK when i read the books to him. I can do British pretty well. I'll have to make...a video of me doing this
I'll do the first chapter of Dark Days Scarab and Sanguine
Yeah, haven't gotten to Tesseract yet, but I somehow doubt he'll sound Russian when I impersonate him.
My sis is 12, but she's five foot nine or ten.
Okay...
It's probably a bad thing how happy reading them to her is making me.
...She asked me if Gordon was the one who brought Skulduggery back to life, because I said he was important in later books.
Lol I should do a video too. Or not. I don't exactly like cameras. They make me want to grimace and stick out my tongue.
I need practice with my Irish accent... Bloddy American one is so annoying...
My soon-to-be step sister said that when I go to Ireland I should just start reciting all of Valkyrie's lines in an Irish accent, pausing for a moment to see if Derek can say Skulduggery's, and if not then continuing on.
Ya. I'm only a camera person when wearing mask.
Hi Val! I don't know if I've met you before, but hi!
Valkyrie, yes, you should.
That might be amusing actually. Be sure to take a video. :-)
Tanith, a freak mask?
Lately, a really creepy two-headed rat mask.
Well, for future reference, this is my serious face.
Grimaces and sticks out tongue to demonstrate.
*blows up serious face*
Great! I love explosives! *eats
My sister laughs at all the right parts too.
...Is it concerning that I put on a mask and pretended to be Tesseract, picked up a fake skull, started swinging it over my head and going, "Aaaaaaaaaay, sexy skeleton! Oppa Tesseract style!"
Meh.
*has been infected by Ieni's MEHness*
*begins humming The Infection*
'Cause, y'know, when Tesseract is fighting Skul in Mortal Coil and he puts his fingers in one of Skul's eye sockets...
Val, not at all.
Weird, yes. Concerning, no.
Besides the fact that you've somehow managed to get Gangnam Style stuck in my head DESPITE the epic music I'm listening too.
What have you been listening to?
I have a song called Remnants. Hehe
But it's completely instrumental.
4 me, a cirque de soleil cd. Also the nutcracker.
Never heard of it.
Tanith, you've probably never heard of them, but it's a band from Disturbed. It's mostly metal, sometimes rock, so I really shouldn't be ABLE to get songs stuck in my head.
*called, not from
Im excited for Val to go to Ireland, if i sent you my requests would you remember them val?
Ah. What's your fave song?
I like 'phantom of the opera'
Yeah, Val, I hate you so much for being able to go.
My dad said today that when and if we go to Ireland we wouldn't spend the whole time stalking Derek Landy, we'd spend it stalking Van Morrison.
Lucky Val. Wish I was traveling to Europe. Instead, I'm traveling home from texas.
Tanith, I have four I cant choose between:
Old Friend, Deify, Never Again, and Inside the Fire.
Im traveling nowhere xD
See Derek should come here but i cant complain. I just sent my one book.
Sigh. Texas was nice, though. Sanguine wasnt in residence. I'm almost home... Just 2 more hours to go.
I'm going to Canada over summer break!
Ah, I see. I have a varying taste in music, so if you ask me tomorrow, I will probably answer differently. I think I've heard two of those, not sure which 2. I listen to a lot of music.
Congrats, where in Canada? I've been to Vancouver and Montreal. Not recently though.
They're all by the same.
I mostly like rock and metal, but I also like country and blues, will listen to classical, and pop is meh.
Toronto, I think.
Im hoping i go to Europe my mom knows how much i wantto meet Derek. She kniws because i freakin wrote to him. Least i know one of my books will be signed though my dad swore i had issues.
Mom was telling me Derek was just being mean because he hadnt gotten Tanith because his skills of attracting women sucked. I immediatly died laughing hysterically
Cool. Never been to Toronto. I like weird music especially from all over the world. I hate call me maybe and pretty much everything else popular.
?
I'm scared to write to Derek. I wouldn't know what to say, and I'd sound so stupid.
Tanith, shut up. I've had Call Me Maybe in my head for days, and I just got it out, and not it's back. Curse you now!
Hey i dont think he'd care. Celine aka Serphia wrote to him asking for pork chops in the second letter, just be funny and yourself. Well dont ask Derek for pork chops, not sure what he'll say to that.
I know...but.
I will when I get permission from my parents to be her so I can say who I am.
Ok. I'll shut up. Bye. Bonne chance!
Bye!
See for me my mom just shrugged plus he didnt use any of our taken names. My card was to Erin. So just hint to him eho you are like,
I wirk for Grand Mage Kerias and Administrator
As* Administrator
I will get permission. I have a way.
Soon...
You'll be fine :) like I said you can always hint to him your taken name. I signed the letter Grand Mage Zafira Kerias but i put my given nake in parenthesees, all 3 of us did. But we actually had somewhat of a plan.
Name*
See, if my parents find out I will be killed.
Also, we went to Hoffman's today, to see Santa, and I asked for a model skeleton. He was so confused...
I promise to revive you Kessiei asked Santa if i could meet Derek, i assure he was confused
What happened:
Santa:Whst would you lime for Christmas?
Me: A model skeleton
Santa: Like...made of plastic or whatever they're made of?
Me:*nods* You need some kind of a permit for a real one
Santa: *pauses* Let's take a picture!
*takes picture*
Me:*leaves*
Santa to my dad: Where do you get one?
Dad: Not my problem, it's yours now
Do you ever feel that life is against you?
My 16 year old cousin asked for a blue morph suit, and my four year old cousin asked for one of those things that lets you clap to control the lights.
Not usually, why?
(I'm back! Mwahahahaha!)
Hi Death!
Not particularly...
Hey, Tanith, is that your taken name?
Kinda Death
Mine was
Santa: what do you want fir Christmas?
Me: an iPid Touch and a chance to meet Derek Landy
Santa: who is Derek Landy?
Me: He's an Irish author. Very brilliantl
Santa: well i shall see if i can get those for you, Merry Christmas
Tanith is actually my middle name, I just like it better. Maarten is totally taken though.
Lol
I wanted to do something like,
Santa: what would you like for Christmas?
Me: Skulduggery Pleasant Book 8
Santa: Sure, I'll get that for you!
Me: It doesn't exist yet! The REAL Santa would know that!
*rips fake beard off*
But I didn't think my parents would appreciate it.
I don't usually pose for photos with Santa. Like I said, I'm bad with cameras.
Your scenes are amusing though!
You did say that, yes.
Remnants is on now!
The song?
Aye.
Right when Tanith came in...
It's a sign!
I can't EVER see Eden!!! He's always on when I'm sleeping!!!!
*Sobs*
My god...
My niece never saw snow. So they in a hotel for the night my sis and her husband take the snow and throw it at the kids sD
Hi Tanith!
*Holds hand out*
I'm Death Rose!! I'm an adept with the ability to control gravity and kill people with a glare! I'm also Serpine's daughter!!
Sigh. I enjoyed reading bk 5, but I can't condone... The part.
My friend is seeing snow for the first time this break.
Death, and this is one of the reasons why I don't online date.
Hi death rose, I'm Tanith. I'm not exactly a Mage, but I'm immune to most magic-related attacks.
Tanith, then youre probably gonna kill me when I say Remnith is cooler?
*grins*
adept....
Im a Necromancer. Cant wait til some of you experience the Surge
Shakes DEath Rose's hand.
Kestrel-- oh, yes.
Kills.
If they were two separate characters, I'd like remnith, but...
Grand Mage, I've got 9, 10 years.
Kestrel LeStarre, Sigilist and Administrator of the American Sanctuaries.
*bows*
for those who dont know, I'm Zafira Kerias Grand Mage of America. Also a Necromancer. But I dont let that stop me from serving as an Elder no matter what other mages think
*Narrows eyes at Kes*
We are NOT dating! We are just very good friends! And we might have online-kissed a few times!!
I prefer Tanith, but Remnith is way cooler.
Congrats. I don't usually like grand mages, but I'll try to make an exception.
Death, right...
Oh least you try. Sanguine and Scarab tried to bloody kill me
I can see how one might think that. I don't agree, but I can see how one might think that.
And Bisahalini tried to overthrow you.
*Laughs*
Did you hear that I married Scarab and I've been out with Sanguine?
Well, glad you survived.
You MARRIED Scarab? I knew about Sanguine.
God bless anyone who dated Scarab.
And yes and did he suceed? No he's dead in a grave whether Derek likes it or not
Lol
You're a ROGUE Grand Mage!
No havent you heard Bisahalani died mysteriousky...
Bloody murder in the night
If I had taken Santa pictures, I would have wanted to pull out a huge list and start reading off things like, "World domination, a nuclear power plant, your soul..."
You hire Ivy?
Lol Val
Val, you read a bunch of random messed up things, and at the end take out a snowglobe and go-
"Oh yes, and your soul!"
There points when you make friends with Sanguine very expensive but very good. Even got a discount because he hated Bisahalani
What do you mean, Kestrel?
I was asking Zaf if she hired Ivy to kill Bisahalini.
Oh. Well, I don't remember being hired...
YAY!
IT'S GOING TO BE IN THE SP COLLECTION OF SHORT STORIES!!!!
Hi all!
And Soul Catchers look like snowglobes.
Hi!
Whats up?
Hi Miss Cain!
Hmm
Oh.
DAMN YOU KESSIE!!!!!!
It appars that on of th kys on my kyboard is brokn brb ima try to fix
I'm guessing that it's the "e"....
I dedicate to the 2014 story collection. It. Shall. Be. Epic.
And Derek, you should call it And The Darkness Rained Upon Them
I think so...
Lol..
*skips around*
Kessie if I dontbget my job back maybe ill be one of the Sanctuary agents in TMS
Ll the keys on my iPod are broken. *nods*
In sixth grade, my friend told all of the little kids I was a vampire. So if they saw me, they would burst into tears and run away.
The End.
Ask later for more ridiculous yet true stories with Valkyrie V.
That's better. Yep was the e. hi.
That would be cool. Unless you were Administrator. Then I'D be annoyed.
Val, are you SERIOUS?
The Darkness Rained Upon Them; A Collection Of Short Stories From The World Of Skulduggery Pleasant.
I like it!
Brb...
Umm... Thanks Val.
Nah I think i'd be one of the agents...eers whatever they were doing, did say from around the world. That'd shut me up
That title sounds EPCA!!!!
Yes, I am serious.
My friends are hilarious.
I had my best friend convinced that I was a vampire for years.
Msd, low battery.
Nice title, but I doubt he'll use it.
Well, it wasn't my idea... Dad sorta did it... Then I ran off... So technically, I'm still married to him...
Now that I think about it, I had MYSELF convinced I was a vampire for years.
It'd be epic though
Death, that's...
