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...

«Oldest ‹Older 1201 – 1400 of 4945 Newer› Newest»HI MEL!
But would it be too boring? I dunno, should I do that or go for beautiful Christmas scene with snow and tree and . . .
*remembers limited green thread and lack of white and blue thread*
. . . Whatever.
Do the naaaaames.
Which reminded me of some art I wanted to draw...
Mel!!!!!!!! *ninjaeroplanetacklehugs*
YES, STAR! And then you could do like a ninja aeoplane for me, which would be just be a meh and a meh. (I also use meh to replace words that don't come to my head.) Remixes? Lets go investigate...
*Puts investigating hat on*...
EW IT STINKS! Shouldn't of let my brother use it...
Wow, all you amazing people drawing fan art and it's not even fair, because I can't even draw and the best thing I can draw is cheese and stick men and yeah...DX
Probably wiser not to let him use it ever again...
Ich bin Bloglandian names, then.
Should I go for stickfigures? If so, how detailed? Should I be boring or should I try to personalise each one? *imagines Zath with moose antlers and Scáth with billions of lines of thread resembling her many SP books and Eve with an orange blob trying to look like a live chicken and yeah*
I'm not sure how good my sewing skills are *once again thinks of live chicken/mysterious orange blob* but I can attempt wn aeroplane.
I think.
Maybe.
Hello? Hi Star!
WAIT! I NEED TO DED!
*Ich bin doing
Oder:
*Ich bin mache
Depending on where or not it makes sense.
I need to tidy my room *murmers hjghymfhmsdswuyjrtuktgk,u,jgiuguji,g* meh. MEH.
MEH is the best word EVER.
I think an aeroplane would just be 2 lines crossing each other...
Rooms are there to be messy. It gives the room personality. Anyway, if any people try and kidnap you or burgle your room, they'll trip over some stuff and break their neck and die, die, die and die again *nods*
*suddenly finds lots more thread*
HELL YEAH.
I know have small quantuties of blue, pink and white. Plus a different shade of yellow. All thick. Plus thick black. And a darker red.
YAY. Now if only I could stop coughing . . .
THIS PAGE IS DEDICATED TO:
Star, Ieni, Emerald, Mel, Cain, and as usual, MYCROFT HOLMES!!!!!!!
Aw.
Thanks Ember!
Annoyingly, I don't have any prooer needles that will work wirh the thick thread. *grumpily tugs out kid's plastic needle*
*looks at blunt end* Er. Somehow I doubt that's go through cloth.
yeah and despite what my mum says, I can find everything because if someone does try to rob me and lets say wants to steal my PS3 games they arent in the one place so its harder to rob me which is my carefully devised system... meh.
THANKS EMBER!
*that'd
THANKS EMBER!!! :D
Danke, Ember!
*Sends ninja powers telepathically to Star, so she can be a ninja at sewing*
Despite my ninja powers, though, I'm still awful at sewing. I actually am. I've broken several sewing machines at school and yeah...
*halfheartedly pushes plastic needle against cloth* This is like prodding a thick paperback and expecting your finger to go through it.
I used to be into sewing for a while. And knitting, for q number of whiles. I can knit and read at the same time, so I partially liked it for that. :)
You're welcome!
How should I get Derek to read my fanfics?
*laughs*
I tried knitting. I failed. Miserably.
my gran tried to teach me how to knit, it was a disaster
I feel sorry for my nails, having to share their nail kit. I use my nail kit for just about everything. *grabs nail kit and start trying to sharpen plastic needle with the nail scissors*
I don't know, Ember.
And that laugh was directed at prodding a paperback.
I guessed.
Im not sure...Im still trying to work that one out myself ember...
Morning those who might not be just waking up
I'm giving my parents a detective story for christmas. Trouble is that I'm a) bad at writing and b) very lazy.
Mel: You write fanfics? What's your pen name?
Hi Zaf!!
*scrapes at so-called needle and smiles* My dad sharpens pencils with his penknife like this. At least, I think it's penknife. Could be pocketknife.
Disappearing now to go play Bach double violin concerto with my brother...
Byebye! *waves*
What ARE you doing, Ink?
Not sure, Ember. '~'
I PLAYED THAT TOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
(sorry, my finger lingered on the O for too long.)
Bye Ieni!!
I want to read fanfiction..... I think I'll go do that. *distant*
Oh, by the way, do NOT touch my umbrella, and do NOT press that little blue button right there *gestures with umbrella before propping it up lovingly against the wall*
FOURS, IENI!
Sharpening my needle! By scraping at the end of it with my nail scissors until it's all pointy!
I knitted my sister a scarf once. It was striped pink and turquoise. She wore it to school and all. I was so proud of myself. :)
I will never EVER knit.
A) I'll fail.
B) Please refer to A.
*grins and pokes needle through cloth* It's not perfectly sharp. But hey, it goes through cloth. :)
My first scarf I tried to knit . . .
*laughs* Let's just say it failed. Big time.
So. Who's name should I do first?
. . . My name. Because that leaves room for mistakes.
I just found a bouncy ball ... my luck is turning :)
AWESOME picture, Mel!
thanks Star drew it :D
Hey, people. Pick a colour - red, blue, yellow, black, white, grey, orange, pink, green or purple?
Mel, what's your fanfic name?
Blue.
emmm... blue..yeah BLUE!!!
*buries head in fabric* OMGG, MY PICTURE IS SO BAD.
BUT THANK YOU, SO MUCH. :)
WAIT I WANNA CHANGE...red
ORANGE!!
It's just... WOW http://whenigetdowntowriting.blogspot.com.es/
Damn im so exhausted
*laughs* Three of us have gone for blue already? *smiles*
Good thing it's a colour I have a decent a
amount of. I have, like, one smidgen of grey. It's practically a dot. It's barely there.
why Zaf?
Okay. Ember, blue. Melica, red. Cain, orange. Good.
YAY!
ORANGE IS THE BEEEEEEEEEEST!!
These are going to be relatively small names and I'm not entirely sure I can do fancy fonts, though I can try. Sorry.
I was up til 2am my time writing. Non stop.
Oh my gosh...

MELICIA WHAT IS YOUR PEN NAME
ZAF, PICK A COLOUR FOR MY TO SEW YOUR NAME IN. RED ORANGE YELLOW GREEN BLUE PURPLE BLACK WHITE GREY OR PINK.

Wowza, guess no one else from my time zone is up yet.
It's cool to hang out with people all over the world. Did any of you play Glitch?
nope has anyone played/still plays minecraft or lotr online?
You on the west coast? Im on the east coast, close to New York City
No and no. :(
I'm in "Seattle" actually a small suburb with a name you probably couldn't pronounce, but close enough to seattle to be able to say I live there without actually lying.
*skips in circles*
AND NOW IT'S OFFICIALLY 2 DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS FOR US AUSSIESSSSSSSSS!!!
And I better go sleep.
Bye guys and talk later!
*disappears*
Miss Cain... Do you live in Singapore?

Nope. I'm in Perth.
In that country called Aus on the west side.
Bye again!
*re disappears*
SO YOU'RE IN WASHINGTON STATE? Omgg, we have so many Bloglandians from Washington.
Okay, we have Jakro who's an ex-Bloglandian and Ivy and sort of Ivy's friend Amanda, but still. There's, like, billions of states in America.
Oh, 20 min from Seattle in theory but there's always traffic.
Yeah, I've run into several Sp fans here.
There are 50 states 48 are all together Alaska and Hawii are the 2 that arent
do y'know whats weird? the thought that I could vote for independance... and be no longer joined to well the rest of the UK... and trust me a lot of people want to... but how weird would that be?
:) THAT WOULD BE IVY'S RECRUITING. :)
FOURS TANITH!
D:
GTG! SORRY! FOURS!
Hey i recruit people! I know we Ameriminions grow day by day
Hey guys! :D The world didnt end!! >:(
FOURS STAR!
It didnt xD
SEE WE AMERICANS DIDNT MESS UP
FOURS, everyone.
Recruiting... For what?
Nope, it didn't.
The kitty cats that sunbathe on the roof of the moon
Where candy rains like powdered sugar in the summer.
Well done.
Just to put it out there, it WAS our detectives who stopped the potential endings... XD
Hey... I don't remember typing that bit about kitty cats!!!!!
*sits back and smirks*
ravel seems to have more lunatics in Ireland then America! At least WE didnt have the button on our soil
Bonjour mes sbires autres!
Yeah, my older sis was called in last minute to deal with a mad scientist dude... Long story... But she didn't mess up!
Im knackered, I just spilled a can of coke all over my PS3 and I bolted it downstairs to save it, its ok now though its not broken phew...
Bonjour. Ce me sont pas le droides que vous rechercez
Sorry, my phone isnt built for French.
PLEASE. That just shows how talented our villains are. What villains do you have? Ah yes, Sanguine, who cant really tunnel anymore and has a not-really girlfriend XD
THAT was close Mel. CLOSE...
Serafin Bugsworthy built a bunch of metal creatures that could eat anything even human flesh.
it was, I ran to the kitchen roll as if someone was bleeding to death but I tried it and it still works, but I thought the can of coke was empty but it wasnt...
A Sanguine description has never been more accurate.
So? Means we Americans are normal compared to the Irish, least we dont have Eliza Scorn, Lord Vile, Serpine, Mevolent....you get the picture
Lionnie Kylle, who currently is in Quebec, but is from New orleans. She runs some sort of underground metro escape system for assassins.
XD Thanks September! P: BUT WEE HANDELED THEM ALL!
Course, serafin's dead now, and Lionnie is on her way there. Don't mess with Texas (or Seattle)
I love how you guys all tell me this, the Elders who run the Sanctuaries closest....will be alerted.
Like I said. Skulduggery hoped we didnt mess up, well we didnt.
'Ello, all!
STAR, I WANT OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!
'Ello.
Oh, and the sanctuaries aren't the only pieces in Klare's game.
Ima leave while y'all try to figure out what that means.
Ciao!
bYE tANITH!
Damnit...
*paces*
Kessie we have planning
What..?
Im Grand Mage of America
Klare may be using the sanctuaries as tools, but her end goal is the same as theirs.
YEAH well I'm Stephanie Edgley. The reflection.
Ok, Grand Mage,what are we planning for?
*gets out paper and quill, also known as opens notes on iPod*
YEAH, well I'm a ninja
Ok fine I'm not a ninja.
I'm the bloody Administrator of the American Sanctuaries. I outrank all of you, except for the Grand Mage here.
Congrats.
So, no ninja attacking the Grand Mage! Someone or other will arrest you.
...Probably.
Someone will arrest you. And sone idiots are trying to basically use the Sanctuaries
*sighs*
fools
Right...
Because they'll definitely be able to get past you and Adra.
I don't attack people. Well, unless they deserve it, but... Like I said, I'm not really a ninja. Of course, I could impersonate one easily, and you wouldn't know the difference. It's all part of the training...
Yeah, well..,
I'm afraid I to have a tendency to be insubordinate and snarky. Sorry if it bothers you.
I am a Necromancer so who really wants to annoy me?
Tanith, I'm incredibly difficult to annoy. Usually.
Grand Mage, why, do you want to explode Ireland again?
Oh, and klare is using the sanctuaries to save the world. You have moles in your networks, enemies in disguise. klare has a list, but she doesn't think you'd believe her if she gave it to you.
Klare? Who. Is. Klare?
Im not exploding Ireland. I like Derek so therefire Ireland isnt gonna explode
Plus Im afraid to
Since when?
I never WANT to annoy people, but I usually end up doing it anyway.
I ALWAYS want to annoy people, and usually end up succeeding.
Klare runs Sahalee. It's a bit like roarhaven, only they don't hate the sanctuary. They just don't depend on it.
Ah. Where's Sahalee?
Is Klare your OC?
Where is this place?
I bet you it's near Miami.
Oh for...MINE!
Damn
Look, Klare has probably saved your life a couple times. Indirectly, of course. I don't work for her and am of no relation to her. I keep an eye on her, and if she's doing anything too crazy, I prevent it.
I dedicate this page to The Button. I'm really surprised no one has yet, actually.
I also dedicate to the Mayas.
The world is actually supposed to end in the 23rd. The Mayas had three calenders, and they thought that when they lined up the world would end and be reborn. They line up on the 23rd and it will be the fourteenth time it's supposed to have happened.
Tanith, I doubt it. Kestrel has only live in America since the events of Death Bringer.
I have to go, may brb.
Hey guys!
Why havent I heard of her? I lived in America all my life!
I have lived in America all my life, but Kestrel is originally Irish.
Heya, Jubi!
Bye! (it's better if you don't believe in her, anyway. Less wrath on me and all that.) congrats Mayas. I hate apocalypses, even if they don't happen.
Hi Kessie!
Hi Zaf!
Hi Tanith!
Zaf is America through and through.
Hi!
Well, the only reason Kessie is Irish is because that was the only way I could make her one of China's students.
hey guys sorry for dissapearing, my PS3 nearly died *sobs* but its alive again now :D
Hiya, Mel!
hey kes so hows it going?
