Okay, about to get in the car and drive to Kildare for my event with Alex Barclay, but I was checking my emails and wandered onto the Facebook site and saw this...
I hope Karina Hauge doesn't mind me posting her picture here. I just thought...
... wow...
A signed book to the first Minion who gets Skulduggery tattooed on their FACE!
EDIT
And since posting this I've received one or two messages from young and impressionable Minions who are saving up to do just that...
Don't! It was a JOKE!
Getting a tattoo is a decision that stays with you YOUR ENTIRE LIFE!
The last thing I want is to be in the middle of a signing somewhere and an angry mother hauls her son/daughter up to me and says "Look! Look at my daughter's face!"
I'll nod and smile politely, because I am a polite person, and I will say something along the lines of, "What a lovely young lady she is."
And then the mother will start shaking the poor girl. "She has. A tattoo. Of your character. ON HER FACE."
And I'll peer closer. "Is that what it is? I thought it was a freckle."
"It takes up her ENTIRE face!"
"I thought it was a big freckle. Are you going to sue me now?"
"YES!"
And that's when the ninjas attack.
I may be letting my imagination run a LITTLE bit wild, but you get the idea.
DO NOT GET ME SUED.

«Oldest ‹Older 3601 – 3800 of 4958 Newer› Newest»*squeals* TIME FOR THE 1D3D TRAILER!
*looks it up on YouTube*
I KEEP DISAPPEARING. SO SORRY ;_;
I've been planning out Skuttlebuggia a little more. And trying to come up with names for characters that were once OCs...
Need to make this completely original!
STAR. *dangles UAN in front of Star's face*
It's Paulfect to me!
Buh-bye Brad.
I'm sorry, Mara. This part of story is . . . *frowns*
Let me work this out.
*frowns* IT'S SO CONFUSING.
. . . It's abot eighty yeas in the future, I think, Mara. BUt there isn't no 1D. Their music still lives on. And it'l still be listened to and sang to as long as some characters of mine are alive, and they're immortal unless killed, so 1D will live on forever. *hugs*
DON'T YOU DARE POINT OUT MY CHARACTERS AREN'T REAL. THEY ARE REAL! IT'S JUST SOME OF THEM AREN'T BORN AND I HAVEN'T MET SOME OF THEM YET!
*resolves to look in newspaper articles to see if I can spot crimes in them that y characters could possibly hav commited in the future*
*sniffles*
Yep. Still makes me cry. *smiles*
*hugs Star back*
YOU JUST MADE ME CRY HARDER :')
so
HOW IS EVERONE?
My mother: In a few years you'll grow out of One Direction.
Me: HAHAHAHAHAHA NO.
*grins*
It's better with the picture of Harry though.
My future, that is.
MARAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA OKAY IT MAY BE PAULFECT TO YOU. BUT I'VE WRITTEN BETTER AND IT WASN'T THAT GOOD. :)
*reads best thing* Meh. It wasn't that good. *mutters*
Damn it all.
But yeah:
Sharky and Ez had come up with a plan.
"Really?" Spiko said, surprised. "An actual plan? A, like, plan-like plan that's all planned out?"
"Kind of," said Ez.
"Well, not really," admitted Sharky.
"Thought not," muttered Spiko.
"We have got a sort-of plan," Ez protested. "Only it's not incredibly detailed. We were going to detail it here." Here was a dirty room with faded blue walls and an unpolished wooden floor. Sharky had bought it ages ago, meaning to do something with it, then never got round to it. They'd put a table in the middle of the room with the cheap white plastic garden chairs that always caused havoc on You've Been Framed, fixed a projector to the ceiling and splashed white paint on one of the walls so they could see the screen.
"You actually going to tell me your plan?" asked Spiko. "Or can I go to sleep?"
"The plan is that we capture Hunter," Ez said.
Spiko rocked back on his chair. "Cool. What comes next?"
Ez looked guilty. "Erm. Nothing. That's pretty much it."
Spiko looked at her in disbelief. "Yeah, one heck of a plan this is."
"You got anything better?" Sharky growled.
"No. But I'm not an organiser. I don't do plans."
"I don't do plans!" Ez protested. "I just get people to do what I need to make them do! The nearest I've been to planning is giving suggestions!"
"I plan," Sharky admitted, "but I've hardly had a long to think on this one."
"Then find time?" Spiko frowned.
"I AM. That's why we're here," Sharky explained.
"Well, let's stop arguing and get on with it," Ez said impatiently.
Sharky glared at her. Some ally she was.
Ez pointed Hunter's phone at the projector and pressed the ON button displayed on the screen.
"Is using Hunter's phone for this the best idea?" Sharky queried doubtfully.
"Yes. It's by far the best idea. It's less destructible and less awkward than a proper remote and, AND it's unhackable. Use the enemy's tools against them, and all that lot."
"Yay," Spiko grinned happily. "I feel like we're so smart now."
Ez ignored him, trying to load the presentation from the phone to the projector.
TBC.
Ten minutes later, she was still trying.
"Want some help?" Sharky offered. Spiko had fallen asleep.
Ez flipped the phone across to him. He caught it and started cautiously pressing random options.
"You don't have a clue how to work it, do it?" Ez deduced.
"No," he admitted, flipping it back to her.
"Wonderful," she muttered. "How was hitting random options meant to help?"
"It could got me somewhere, if I was lucky. Better than nothing."
"We're not lucky, though."
"No."
She sighed and gazed at the phone helplessly.
Seven minutes later, Spiko woke up to find Sharky staring at his watch impatiently and Ez hitting every random option she could see.
"How on earth is hitting random options meant to help?" Spiko asked her.
She just glared at him and carried on hitting options.
After thirteen more minutes of Ez tapping options and Spiko and Sharky giving her useless pieces of advice that didn't help one bit, they got the presentation up. So much for using Hunter's phone being a good idea.
"We're going to create an ambush in New York," annouced Sharky dramatically, once the screen was black and showing the words Operation Capture Hunter across it.
"Why New York?" asked Spiko. "I don't like New York."
"Hey," Ez glared at him. "I LIVE in New York. I think. I do go back there every few months so I can say I still live there . . . "
Sharky frowned. "That's living there?"
"Yes. Sort of. Anyway, New York is amazing cool, plus I have a lot of contacts there, so we're using it."
Spiko frowned. "Okay, get on with it."
Sharky continued. "Me and Ez have both got a lot of people who'll help us on this. We're going to station them at different points, as shown on the screen."
Spiko looked at the unchanged screen, then looked back at Sharky questioningly.
Sharky glared at Ez.
"Give me a sec," she muttered, fiddling with the phone. "I've got to get it back to remote mode . . . "
Sharky starting swearing angrily, then stopped and sighed. "I give up."
Spiko started laughing.
"Done it!" annouced Ez, pointing the phone at the projector and pressing a button. A map of New York spun onto the screen. "Okay. FINALLY. Let's get started."
@Mara: D: I'M SORRY. *hugs*
OH MY GOD THERE ARE IRISH FLAGS ALL OVER EDMONDS
I MUST TAKE PHOTOS
It mentions taking photographs in Change My Mind . . .
I found a Change My Mind vid today.
Sssssh!
If anyone asks, I'm not here! Super-distant!
Oh, and I don't actually have the authority to invite people to the MC, I just use it anyway!
Hiii!
Crying in a good way :)
That was really good Star! :) MY PHONE IS LIKE HUNTER'S. UNHACKABLE. IT HAS A PASSWORD.
And nobody can figure it out because it's just that awesome :3
Lucy's comment poofed...
I can never find videos for Change My Mind...
Hi Fabigail! *whispers*
It did?
Damn poofing comments.
If it was there in the first place...she said to email her if you need her, I think...Fabi reloads at a ridiculous pace and has bad memory...:-( Sorry.
There were like four stop motions, but the best one had funny audio so I didn't use it . . .
Hello Fabi.
Ah.
This MC chapter just got fun :)
Star~I really like the characters in WTWBTDOCIHHATDWI...did I get the acronym right? Oh, well, you know what I'm talking about. I keep procrastinating leaving comments, so I thought I'd tell you here.
I can't wait to read it, Mara.
Hunter's phone doesn't have a password. :P It senses people's touch and therefore it only wrks for certain people wo's touch hs been regisered on the thingy.
Spaß? Das ist gut, weil Spaß ist gut. :)
*hugs Fabi* DANKE DANKE DANKE!
I'm terrible at leaving comments on things, so I don't mind. *laughs*
*who's
*works
I'm posting a comment on my phone, then checking the comments on the laptop whilst that's posting, posting another comment, checkin the comments on my phone . . . WHY????
That's an interesting procedure.
[is hugged]
You're welcome. :-)
Then I closed the iernet on m phone, an he amount of charge I ad left went up. :)
I'm just on the computer, so I can't reload the page at my usual speed.

:( FOURS, FABI!
Bye Fabigail! *hugs*
lol Star XD
I find it amusing that that comment's 2 years old, also . . . XD
How're you, Maraness?
Msd. :(
Sorry, I'm so distant :(
I'm good :) Writing MC and listening to 1D.
How're you?
Hi guys I'm kinda here.
I'm good, but slightly tired. Writing Insanity and listening to BFMY. *laughs*
Writing and listening. :)
Hi Aisling!
Hey Ais :)
I am Very Very distant.
I think I'll go to sleep now. Fours!
Bye Star
I think I'll go now as well bye
Finally, a new MC chapter from yours truely :P
Bye Star and Ais! *hugs* :(
I'll stay for a while... *yawns*
[Laughs] One Direction. Oh, Mara. [Laughs again] That chapter was so...you. :-) It's awesome.
*smiles sleepily*
Thanks Fabigail :)
I had fun writing it, tbh...
I bet. :-)
Organic M&Ms come in purple!
Organic M&Ms?
PURPLE!
I LOVE PURPLE.
...like Liam....
They're colored, sugar-coated chocolate, only with natural coloring, no artificial flavors.
There's a magenta beet-color, a dark blue/indigo, and a light purple. :-) Also orange green and yellow.
And purple's my favorite color. :-)
Mara and 1D. You know, you're linked with them in my head now. 'Gotta Be You' comes on and I think 'Oh, Mara likes this song.' XD
Basically they're what my mom gets. She's a bit health-food paranoid. Night if you fell asleep, I know I'd be doing that at this hour...if it was this hour for you only here.
Purple's my favourite colour too!
Sorry for disappearing :P
Seriously? XD One Direction and I... Sounds like a good title for a fanfic XD
My mother doesn't really mind what we eat, but sometimes she gets all paranoid too :P
Msd
*:-P
The first one
And my mother lets me cook noodles from-a-packet and pizza-from-a-packet. *laughs*
My mum's an okay cook. Sometimes it's nice. Sometimes it, uh, isn't very nice...
About a girl who kidnaps 1D and hides them in her closet. XD
I'm going to go to sleep now Fabigail. Night, and happy St. Patrick's Day!
(technically, it's already St. Patrick's Day here)
Night, Mara! My comments poofed, but I guess you saw them. Crazy iPod. Bye!
HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!!
*throws green streamers everywhere*
Wbd...
Hi Missy! Distant as well.
Hey Fabi!!
Oh, bbs, shower...
Back!!
Wb, sorry I poofed, dinner time here.
Oh, ok.
Sorry for the late reply, getting ready for my little St.
Patrick's Day party,
And I'll be extremely distant...
I'm extremely distant, too. Same old history fair. [Sighs]
We had to wear green leotards to dance Friday/yesterday, but dark green is already our level color, so it was boring. [laughs]
I actually don't have much green clothes.
Which is kind of a problem for today.
But, I'm wearing some orange, because it's a colour from the Irish flag. :)
...You probably knew that already.
Knew that you were wearing orange? No. I'm not that psychic, or psychic at all. I mean, I know what's going to happen to FabiTC usually, and I can predict the weather here, rain, rain and more rain, but that's it. Oh.. You were referring to it being on the Irish flag. Right.
I'm currently inside, wearing my friends clothes, wrapped in a blanket, with a hat, scarf, gloves, socks, and a jacket, with sopping wet hair, and having random ciolent shivers with my three friends.
Note to all of you: never walk in the pouring rain in Washington. For an hour. IT'S AWFUL.
Fabi, is it raining by you?
*laughs*
Poor you, Val.
Poor you. XD.
Sorry, I kinda poofed. Had to go make cupcakes. :3
My legs are so cold if you hold your hands above them you can feel the cold.
What were you even doing out in the rain?!
It's not raining raining. Just sort of smelling wet. Also, I can hear frogs.
Sorry I poofed!
I did have a soccer practice once, though, before I officially flunked out of soccer, and it was pouring rain for an hour, and I borrowed my sister's raincoat that was too big for her and it wasn't actually waterproof... I couldn't feel my fingers or toes and my arms were shaking.
And I'm going back inside now. It's starting to drizzle.
*sighs*
I miss the rain...
[Mutters]
Miss Cain
misses Rain
I think the rhymey poems have invaded my brain.
!!!
Hey, it rhymed again!!
The last one and a half weren't intentional.
*weren't
RHYMEY WHIMEY. :D
Distanty timey...
(aka wbd)
HELLOOOOO
Did you really have to bellow?
My feet are still jello...
Anyway, hello!
Okay, now I'm really stretching it.
Maybe a little bit.
Distant!
HEY JUBI!!
Wbd, YouTube... XD
GAH!!! It poofed!!
I said
Erm....
HELLO TO YOU TOO FABI!
MISS CAIN!!!!!!!
Hi.
Hellllllooooooo! :-)
How goes everyone?
I'm pretty good. :D
How is you?
I'm good :)
I tried reading SP to my sister... She somehow didnt get any of the jokes... But then again, she HAS always been kinda dim xP
I'm strangely hyper, considering as I have a script to finish. Organic M&Ms!!
[Tosses organic M&Ms everywhere!]
My sis loved books 1-3, is getting a little scared at Dark Days, though, so we kinda stopped.
ORGANIC M&Ms??????
Not M&MS brand, but effectively the same thing, just mom-friendly (aka naturally colored with various unidentified vegetable dyes, but it's still sugar-coated chocolate)
Aaaah
And at least your sister would LISTEN to it....
I read to my little sister (she's too lazy to read -_-) and my dad (he enjoys listening) when we can, and we're up to Mortal Coil. :D
But we haven't been able to read much, lately...
She's awesome that way. Scary sometimes, but usually awesome.
Just realized how scary that made my mom sound... Well, she is scary, but she can only hack her own phone because she knows the password and stuff.
I tried reading them to my dad... But he just fell asleep...
My dad likes Skulduggery's sense of humor.
my dad TRIES to get into it...
but he doesnt -_-
My mom was the one who didn't get any of it.
I also was reading SP out loud to Savannah before school started. Now she's always busy... I did get her the book for her half-birthday, though, so she might be still reading it on her own.(her actual birthday is too close to Christmas, so she celebrates her half-birthday instead).
aaah...
Aaaaaah! Gtg! Byee!
aw
BBYYEEEEE FABIIII
BYE FABI!!
Hmm, I have to go have lunch.
Bbs!!
BYEE MISS CAAIINNNN
I love the Prometheus movie!
Sorry I disappeared, my fingers stopped working. They were too numb to use, so...
We were in the rain because Emily, Maddy, Zoe, and I all went for walk. Zoe and Maddy decided they wanted to walk to Max's house, and me and Emily didn't really say no, so we did. On the way to Max's house, we stopped at my house so I could get my cape and pretend to be Gilbert - Max has my bus stop, you see, so he understands how creepy it is - and then we walked to his house. At that point it was kind of drizzling, and I suggested getting an umbrella, but nobody really cared, but when we got to my house I grabbed one anyway. It was a good idea - it had started raining pretty hard then, and we were getting a little wet. So by the time we were at Max's house it was pretty wet, but we all fine with it. But then Zoe and Maddy decided to go inside Max's house and kind of make themselves comfortable, and since me and Emily didn't feel like it was right to just barge in, we ran off, and it started pouring. We were wandering around downtown Edmonds for about an hour, ignoring Maddy and Zoe's phone calls, fine with it - but then it got cold outside. And it started raining even harder. So me and Emily went to Starbucks, and tried to tell Zoe and Maddy where we were by using a riddle (it was super obvious). They didn't figure it out, so we decided to go back. So we walked for about 20 minutes, soaking wet, me scaring everyone with my black cape on, and then Maddy leaped out and threw a book at my leg. Really hard. Emily and I both screamed because, well, it was terrifying. Maddy lunged out of a bush and chucked a book at us. It was a bit frightening. So Zoe started laughing at us, Maddy laughed at us, Max laughed at us, then Max went home, and all of us girls had to walk all the way back to Emily's house in the freezing cold for half an hour. By the time we got back to her house our hands were to numb to actually hold anything, so... Yeah. That's why we were all numb and cold and took a walk in the rain. It was an ADVENTURE!
Very late response, but it took a while to type that.
I mean, I wasn't typing that whole time I was gone, but it still took around ten minutes to type all that.
Oh, and the Starbucks riddle me and Emily send them was, to quote the text I sent them:
Time for a riddle: If you want to find us, come to this place - the first half of the word resembles something you'd find in space, the second half resembles money, and it originated in the market called Pike Place. Have fun with that.
VAL!!!!
hi.
ooooohh sounds like fun xP
and WILLOW!!!!!!!!
hi.
Promethius was a good movie.
it was a little disgusting at times though :P
[Laughs] I would've gotten that right away. My dad works a few blocks away from the original Starbucks. He says that Le Panier is better, less crowded and has really good pastries. [Laughs again] He's so Dad sometimes. (also he's crowdophobic, so he will go great lengths to avoid busy places so that probably skews his judgement)
[Is not here]
I don't know if "fun" was the right word for it...
I'm glad Emily is so nice, though. She let us use her clothes and blankets and stuff so we could put our sopping wet stuff in the dryer.
Haha, Fabi, you should've heard me and Emily insulting Zoe and Maddy when they couldn't figure it out. And when we met up with them again they shouted, "You got Starbucks without us?!" And so we shouted at them for not getting our super obvious riddle.
It wasn't disgusting..it was awesome! and I loved David
Haha xP I saw it with my friend, but we had to stop right when the guy who got torched like, came back to life... kinda... and then her younger sister got home so we had to stop... -_-
damn, that sucks, you definitely need to watch the full movie, it's awesome, I can't wait till the 2nd one comes out
wel... wasn't it a prequel to Alien?
HULLO!
Back from lunch. :)
MISS CAAIIINNNNN!!!!!
hi.
hey Missy...and yup it is...hmm i'm thinking of a Shavid romance in that movie
Im here but I'm bout to go to bed just got him
...I think I'm going to write a Shavid fanfic...O.o
Sorry for poofing... again... But , I'm going to bed, I think, because I'm too tired from today to keep typing. Night!
NIGHT VAL!!
Omgg.
Witchcraft by Pendulum has got to be one of the best songs to Nightcore. :D
OK, I gotta go now.
It's nearly time for my St. Patrick's Day party. :3
BYE ALL!!

Now, wbd. Deding.
ALOHA!
My little St. Patrick's Day gathering thingy was a success. :D
I've dedicated to many, many things over the past year or so, and it sometimes becomes difficult to think of something new to dedicate to.
But on Tuesday morning, I was talking to my English teacher and I realised something I should be thankful for.
And again on Friday night, when an old friend asked if I hated him.
This thing seems to be popping up a lot in my life at the moment.
I've dedicated to hope before, and many other things similar to it. But I don't remember ever dedicating to self-belief.
Back to Tuesday morning:
Tuesday is my house's assembly day at school, so me and Beth (a girl in my tutor who I adore<3) walked up to the hall and were about to go in, but I bumped into my English teacher. Beth went to sit down, leaving me and my English teacher to talk.
We discussed my English Language grades for a few minutes, until she mentioned my CAs. Because I hadn't finished one of my CAs she said it'd be alright because I type fast, and she said it's probably because I always seem to he writing. We got to talking about my fictional writing, and she said something to me that I never expected anyone to say.
She said "You're really talented, I think you should try for publishing. You could do it." But then she said the thing I never expected anyone to say, she told me that she believes in me.
She wants me to do well, knows I'm capable and believes in me.
Only then did I realise that, if my English teacher can believe in me and think that I, above everyone else, can write a book and have it published, I should have a go.
I realised if was time to trust in my abilities and believe in myself a little. Because if you don't believe in yourself, what can you believe in?
TBC.
HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY! :D
*throws streamers and balloons and streamer-balloons*
HEY MARA!! *tacklehugs*
Happy St. Patrick's Day to you too!!
There's this chapter I was writing for Skuttlebuggia recently, and I couldn't have written it without this belief that my English teacher had in me.
The chapter I'm talking about hasn't yet been put up on my blog, so not everyone will know what I'm talking about, yet.
Anyway, there's this scene with Zacharia and Luciana, and he tells her that it's time she learns to love herself too.
"You can love another, but it will mean nothing until you learn to love yourself."
^this line here makes me think of some of you. Some of you don't believe in yourself enough. You're fast to compliment us, but when it comes to finding positives about yourself you fall down.
I'm the same, not believing in myself and falling down at the final hurdle because of it.
Self-belief is often overlooked, whereas lacking in belief is seen as normality.
It pains me to see my friends hating every little thing about themselves, then complimenting me.
I think it's time for you to see yourselves in a brighter light, and believing in your capabilities.
I believe that I can finish writing Skuttlebuggia. So that's what I'm going to do.
I also believe that I'm prettier when I smile, so now's the time I learn to smile more and forget what haters think.
I'm me and nothing can change that.
Maybe it's your turn to believe in yourself, and prove people wrong.
So I dedicate to self-belief, and you.
TBC.
hellooooooooooooo i want a tattoo like that i wish i was able and old enough
Also a quick dedication to Skuttlebuggia and to Skulduggery Pleasant Magic Vs. Magic Facebook page, AS WE JUST REACHED 200 LIKES C:
Now, I shall continue...
So, Friday night. One of the first Skuttlebugs I ever made friends with asked me if I hated him. Over the past few months, he's treated me like shit. He turned some of my friends against me, used my secrets against me, called me things I'm terrified to become.
He asked, "Why don't you hate me? You have every reason to..."
And my reply was simple. "Because I believe in you. I still see the good in you."
Belief isn't something that can be changed with great ease. And I was taught to believe in myself by the Skuttlebug friends I have made.
And that's why I also dedicate to all of you. And to the fact that everyone has some level of good in them.
And, finally (because this ded is really bad), I dedicate to Ellikins. For being there for me over the past year. She's been there for me through thick and thin, and there's nothing in the world I wouldn't give up for her.
She's another sister to me. <3
Wait, one last thing - I dedicate to Jade for being generally awesome. XD
Beautiful ded, L.
Beautiful.
Luci, that ded was fantastic :) I smiled the whole way through. *hugs*
