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.

Somebody else take it, please. I can't. :/
~When love goes cold
Blood, tears and gold
Won't make it any better~
I adore Theo Hutchcraft's lyrics. :3 ^^
...
*waves 'Hi's and 'Bye's to anybody who appeared/left*
*hands Mara a cookie*
*tackles Adra* Howdy! :3
I am happy. :)
Just distant. And in a distant mood, which means I and my mood are not fully here. Plus, in my story, my characters are running away from and evil wall which is chasing after them trying to kill them. It sounds amusing, but it's deadly. :P
*an
Hi Adra, Val
It's not even amusing, actually. It's a very serious matter. *nods*
Hi Star, Adra, Fabi, Mara, and Taia!
Heyy yall :D *hands out skulcakes*
*tackles Adra* HELLO
VAL!
DEREK
IF YOU SEE THIS>
PLEASE RESPOND TO MY TWEET> MY BEST FRIEND'S BDAY IS TOMORROW AND SHE LOVES YOU SO MUCH AND I THINK THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING REALLY COOL TO GIVE HER
I just realized there's no easy way to write numbers in my ||=|==||==|~||||| code without spelling them out...
Star-An evil wall. Okay then. And of course it's a very serious matter. [nods as well]
*sighs*
*tips river with foot*
Do you ever wonder how many people like you?
Not a lot like me, anyway.
Maybe I should go quiet again... Not like anyone would care... ._.
I generally spell out numbers. I think they look better. :)
But I can understand it would be a pain, Fabi. :/
Ooh! MC chapter!
[goes to read]
Mara, everybody and everything does damage. But everybody and everything also does GOOD.
As Art Alexakis says, There's nowhere to go but up.
You are perfect (Paulfect, Pierrefect, whichever), because you are what you are, and anybody who thinks otherwise is wrong and probably smells weird.
Well, I have to spell out the letters with numbers, or representations of the numbers, so I would essentially be spelling out the numbers with the letters that I spelled out with the numbers that I spelled out with the lines, if that makes any sense.
I don't think I've brought any good to the blog...
Oh, I know for a fact they're right...
Thanks for trying to cheer me up though, Taia. *hugs*
You're the Paulfect/Pierrefect/Perriefect one, not me.
I would care, Maraness. I would miss you. :(
I know I would, because I missed you a week or two ago when I didn't speak to you for a few days. (?)
OH GOD MY FRIEND'S MOVING SCHOOLS AND I'LL MISS HER SO MUCH WHEN SHE WENT FOR HER LOOK-AROUND DAY I MISSED HER LOADS AND THAT WAS ONE DAY OMG. :'(
. . . Rant over . . .
I often wonder that, actually . . . I often get the feeling no one irl really likes me. Here I hardly feel everyone likes me, but it's a different kind of not being liked, so.
But we like you, Maraness. :)
YOU'RE BOTH WHATEVER-FECT, ACTUALLY . . . *hugs*
AND YOU FABI! *pulls her into hug* *prays no one else comments before I post mine so they don't feel left out*
For once, One Direction are wrong.
I'm not beautiful, pretty, cute, sweet, or likable.
.-. Sometimes I really hate myself.
Mara, without you I'd never have discovered Little Mix, and they're just plain awesome. [hugs] Even if you won't admit how 1Derful and Perriefect and a bunch of others, at least admit to having awesome taste in music. [hugs Mara and everyone else]
*hugs Mara back*
Well, I think you brought good. I've enjoyed speaking to you, and my greatest fear is conversation. Doesn't that say something?
I often feel that I'm disliked, and not least by myself.
There are different ways that people deal with that. For me, it's almost always MCS lyrics, because they help me to realise... things.
Or folding paper cranes. Oddly, that seems helps me out, too.
*contributes to the explosion of hugs which seems to have occurred*
The people who are completely and utterly pleased with themselves never go anywhere. The people who don't think they're good enough and try to be better are the ones who improve.
That may have been completely irrelevant.
[hugs Mara, Star, Taia, and a very perplexed little sister who happened to be walking by at the right time]
Every single person on this blog is perfect. Beyond perfection. You're all funny, sweet, kind and amazing. You put up with me, which is something you should all be proud of. Me and my rambles about 1D or Little Mix.
I'm the kind of person that is the leftover girl, so I have to hang out with a random group of girls. So when you all treated me with respect.. I felt so happy.
You have all impacted my life hugely. I love you all. *hugs tightly*
I am a terrible friend, and an even worse person, and I'm sorry for that. *hugs again*
Not at all irrelevant, Fabi.
I agree completely.
I think, what's the point in doing something if you feel that you're as good as you're going to get?
Msd, parents back.
You have to be likeable, coz we like you. What Fabi and Taia said is true. You can't possibly be a worse friend than me.
1D can't possibly be wrong. :)
Sorry about disappearing at a moment I was needed . . .
Mara, LM is FANTASMARIFFIC, and 1D isn't half bad either. And so are you. All of you are fantasmariffic, you hear me? No? YOU'RE FANTASMARIFFIC! There, now you must have heard.
This means you, Mara, Star, Taia, Death, Ember, Jubi, Lucy, Willow, Zaf, Saph, everyone else in Blogland.
Darn it, you're all good friends whether you like it or not.
There's something I feel the need to say, but I don't know what it is, in words. It's just, like, brainwaves which won't quite stick together.
*frowns*
I think that maybe it's because while I'm not exactly happy with myself as a human, I've sort of learned to accept my problems and shortcomings. I'm weird and inept, and I do my best to use that to my advantage...
I don't know where that was going. Maybe it means something to you, though?
Fact is that everybody's awesome.
Live with it. :P
*strikes my name out* WHAT FABU SAID! :)
I hug my friends too much, I'm too loud, too noisy, too annoying.
Then other days I'm too quiet, too lazy, too boring.
._. I'm never really okay. Not even okay. I would like to be called nice by someone for once. One of my irl friends. But I'm just too weird for them.
Msd & wbd.
As an authority figure, I officially declare Bloglandians to be awesome. This includes those who deny awesomeness as well as those who don't.
[back to just Fabi]
[hugs everyone again]
Either that, Mara, or they're just too normal for you. ;)
Fabi, I support your authority, and your declaration.
*nods*
I am not usually an authority. Weird.
And now I must go!
FANTASMARIFFIC, you hear me?
I deny awesomeness. I REFUSE to be called awesome. Now say I'm not awesome or you are fired, Miss Smythe. *nods authoritively*
Loud and clear, Fabi.
Have a nice day/evening/appropriate time phrase!
*hugs, waves, and hands a cookie*
Bye~
FABIGAIL. SHUSH. *frowns*
Bye! *hugs*
Taia - Or I'm just too weird for my class. That sounds better. And truer. If that's a word.
*laughs*
I don't believe in weird.
*holds her head high*
Well, that's not entirely true.
I don't believe in weird as a BAD thing, I guess.
The weirder the better, in my opinion. :P
Oh, I'm titred of arguing. Let's have a Blogland Sleepover! XD
Seeing as today is International Pyjamas Day... :3
*tired
LOL, seriously?
International Pyjamas Day?
That's epic. x3
Weird is a cooler word for different. :)
Well, I'm either too odd or too quiet. Rarely both. :)
Real life people find us weird, but THEY are the peculiar, unawesome ones. *nods*
. . . Not counting the ones who are awesome, but yeah.
PILLOW FIGHTTTTTTT! *throws pillows at Star and Taia* *is wearing her One Direction Onesie*
The DJs on 2FM (a radio station) were doing DJs in PJs today :3
Weird people are cool. *smiles*
*chucks pillow back* RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
*laughs, and attempts to throw a pillow back*
*Pillow lands about three metres from Mara's feet*
I suck at sport. :P
... I just noticed something.
My last six blog posts were all poetry.
What does that say about my current mental state?
I'm thinking something along the lines of 'unstable', since that's how most of my poetic mind exists...
*ponders*
I SUCK AT SPORT TOO!
*jumps on bed* NIALL JUMP! FWAAAAAAA! *does Niall jump*
Poetry is awesome!
Taia, I'm going to stalk your blog - I mean, look at your blog now. *shifty eyes*
OF COURSE WEIRD PEOPLE ARE COOL. :)
TOO MANY CONVERSATIONS! D:
*laughs*
There are a couple, I think.
The one I was talking about is (currently) entitled 'a world of words' Or something like that. :P
Blog stalkers are fun. Especially when they comment, I find.
Feedback rocks, see. :3
Star, I know what you mean. Luckily, I'm only holding up the one, right now. I feel for you, though. I really do.
NIALL JUMP! WHOOSHHHHHHHHH!
ERMAHERD, LOOK AT ME JUMP! I CAN FLYYYYYY - *whacks head off ceiling*
*lays in tree*
Oh my gawd! We should have a Requim Ball again! Like...we had it once I'm sure we could do it again we had the after party and the after party's after party
I think by the end at least half of us were in the pool
And I dd invite Derek of course but I think he's afraid of dancing
Hi Zaf!
Feedback rocks like Eve is a rock. :)
*is crap at jokes*
New MC chapter, for anyone who's interested :)
Hello everyone!
Zaf, that would be perfect! :D
All the Bloglandians could set up for another amazayn event! :)
Hey Willow!
*laughs* That's a good one Star, tis a good one XD
We're having a Requiem Ball Star thinks, on the same date . . .
Life would be less painful if ceilings were made of, like, sponge. x3
Hiya, Zaf!
Isn't there a number of years between the Requium Balls, though? (I forget how many :P)
Nonetheless, that was fun. Maybe we could come up with a similar event, instead? :3
HI WILLOW!
hey Mel :)..I wanna go to a requim ball!
hey Star :)
Seriously we should maybe like in honor of TMS like during everyone's Easter Holidays?
Seriously if we do this we need to spread the word and decide on a date because I'm more then willing to organize if everyone wants to do the Requim Ball
Realistically it'd be a DECADE before we could do it again but in Blogland we are infinte so eh it dont matter and it's not like Derek is going to be a party pooper and be all like grrr no
Same here Zaf! I'm willing to help!
Well, what date is everyone on holiday?
In that case, rather than a Requium Ball, would it make more sense to entitle it, simply, "Epic TMS Celebration of Epicality"?
Ten years. But we're cheating and havong one every year. apparently. :)
Well I see the point Taia it is technically not exactly 10 years
And I start my holidays on March 27th it's a half day in school and they end April 2nd
Hmm... Well, a Requiem Ball might be more fun... We talk all posh like and wear suits and dresses! :3
Annually sounds good, I think. As Star said, on the same (or similar) date?
As for the Epic TMS Celebration of Epicality, as I'll now be referring to it as, I think it's a brilliant idea. I'd be happy to lend a hand. ^^
We could do a Blogland vote every Minion could vote on what we could do that and we gotta get in contact with other Minions who are Bloglandians but we havent seen and someone hasta communicate with our Kiwis and Aussies because my timezone makes it nearly impossible to speak to some
What date was it last year? In March..? I was there, so...
*nods*
Yeah. Yeah, that makes sense.
Was it in March last year?
I thought it was later.
It was, sort of, when Doctor who returned to television, I think.
It was September 1st 2012 last year but the reason i thought over Easter Holidays was because we'd all be off of school
Right. This page isn't dedded.
I ded to ETMSCE (Epic TMS Celebration of Epicness), One Direction, Little Mix and Blogland! :)
Wasn't it in autumn?
The BA was around this time of year, richtig?
Yeah, it'd be better if everyone was off :)
But it was the date we had it on coz that was the date it was in the books . . .
The BA was ovef the summer then we did the Ball in September Derek had even given us a Blog post
So if we all agree March we just need a good date
Actually I think the Ball should stay in September but maybe doing the celebration of TMS in over Easter is smarter
*nods*
What date is Easter Sunday?
I'd have thought a day nearby to that would be likely to have most people away from school.
I'm off for two weeks at Easter I think. Easter week and the week either after or before.
That's a good idea Zaf :) *nods*
I wish I could give imput, but I wasn't around last year x(
Easter is March 31st and I know for a fact if we wanna invite Derek he has a TMS event in Dublin on the 30th
I was thinking maybe March 27th? Because even if Ameriminions have school we would be able to stay ip kate the 27th because the following day is Holy Thursday and schools are off that day ESPECIALLY Catholic Schools
I'm going somewhere for a few nights over Easter . . . :(
Yes Zaf. Requiem Ball at Requiem Ball and TMS at Easter sounds jepic. :)
March 27th is good with me!
We better check with the other minions though.
We always have two weeks off at Easter, making the spring term short and the summer term long, or the other way around, depending on when Easter is each year . . .
I have no idea whether it's good with me or not, but I'm assuming it is. :)
I get nothing for easter honestly as you saw
Okay so we need opinions of when to do this and we need to contact any Bloglandians whom might not be always. I know I can get hold of Emerald NJ Adra and Flame
Uh... Hey guys...
I have no idea when my Easter holiday begins, tbh, though. x3
March 27th sounds sensible, though.
Discussion with other international minions couldn't hurt, though. :)
I might be able to get hold of a few BLoglandians..
Well, if I have school that day, it's fine cause it'll most likely be a half day. :) And I usually go on Blogland on my phone, so as long as I have my phone I'm good for any date :)
Not the Saturday of Easter week though. My friend is sleeping over that night probably.
Hey Death! :) *hugs*
We're discussing a TMS celebration party!
HI DEATH!
I can contact most of the Bloglandians. :)
On my phone, though . . . If you want me to email me, I may have to do it tomorrow. My phone's charging, and getting down my ladder makes noise. I can go get it if you want, though. :)
If this keeps up... I doubt I'll be going to Sovereign Hill
*them
I don't have a lot of the newer bloglandians on the comp, but I guess you'd see them round anyways. :)
Hey Death! Come join us! Need imput from some Aussies!
That's why I figured the 27th because no church stuff and moat likely we'd all have off one way or another and for me I can be on 3 classes in school and when im home at like half 1
And Star anyway you can contact them is fine by me so however you wanna go for it
One Way Or Another... OH MY GOLDEN GOD ZAF YOU JUST MADE ME LAUGH OUT LOUD.
*glances nervously at door* I hope Dad didn't hear...
I'm kinda here... I'm in a whole heap of pain
Got phone, now. *nods*
Three sentences, three 'though's.
*shakes head sadly at her previous comment*
I'll be off now, I think.
I have people to Twitter-stalk. :P
Have a good evening/day/appropriate time phrase, all of you.
*waves, hugs, cookies*
Bye~
*drains into the floor, singing the chorus to MCS' "Make Out Kids".
(Hooray for the Madness~ :3)
Are you okay, Death...? :( *huggles*
*Waves*
See ya Taia!!
Bye Taia! :( *hugs*
Bye Taia!
Star just contact as many as possible
This'll be so much FUN :D
I think my appendix has burst... It really hurts... I can't bend over, I can't be on my side... I had to get up and take some pain killers last night because I was literally writing in pain...
*pats Death's head*
Can appendixes burst?
Poor you, Death! D: *hugs*
I really really hope you feel better soon!
AHHH
TWO DAYS
I think so... I think it has something to do with my appendix
Me too... I really want to go to Sovereign Hill...
If I disappear, I've fallen asleep :)
Email me any more details if I miss out please! :)
*sits in tree* Easter will be fun! 27th a Blogland party and then 30th meeting Derek!
I don't think I'll have wifi...
Wait! When is Easter?!
Wow.
500 comments ish while I was sleeping.
GOOD MORNING!!
I'm going to see Derek in Cork too! :) And the 1D concert, and ETMSCE, and the RB, and maybe the BAs... Yay! This year sounds pretty action-packed for the Bloglandians! :D
*hugs* Yokay, Death?
*Waves to Cain*
Hello Missy!!
I'll survive... Maybe... I want to see a doctor...
Hey Death!!
Miss Cain good morning!
So we plan to do a TMS celebration March 27th at 12am whatber timezone you in, would you be able to attend?
Hi Missy! :) *hugs*
I'll try
You should go to the doctors, Death. *nods*
Parents at work... Older brother an hour away... Older sister (#1) is in Tassie... Older sister (#2) has her Ls... Little brother can't drive...
Damn Death...call your parents
A TMS party??
Cool.
Lemme check what day it is...
Oh... :/ *hugs*
It should be over Easter Holidays for you
Also guys as it gets closer we need to savor a Blog post because we need to plan that Derek wont do one for us because he may not actually do it we can ask but it wont be guarenteed
*hugs Death*
Hope you get better!!!
Hey Mara!!
Wait no... It's a weekend... They're both in Melbourne...
This'll be awesome! I can't wait! :D
It's a Wednesday for me.
And we're not on Easter holidays this year, we have Friday off, then the weekend, then Monday and Tuesday off.
So I'm not sure if the 27th is a good date to be up at 12am... D:
Which sucks.
*The 27th is a Wednesday for me,
Sorry Miss Cain :( i mean even on te 28th for you we still can celebrate because it'll be 27th somewhere in the world
Omg. Lol.
Hmm, I might be able to do the 28th... :D
Should we invite Derek?
YES, DEREK SHOULD BE INVITED.
Actually, I might go double check when our mini Easter holidays are. So, brb...
Go on Zaf, invite Derek for the laugh!
Hi Gabriel! :) Have we met before?
Hi Gabriel!
Iamnotheredejavujulyaugustughanywayyeah
I heard your plans for a TMS celebration, and I heartily approve, and should be able to come.
Death, where does it hurt? If it's higher, just below your ribs, you don't have anything serious to worry about. If it's lower, especially if it's off to one side, that is bad. Fabi has history of stomach problems, unfortunately, and she is remembering what doctor said. Hope it feels better soon! And you could try drinking water, if you don't think you'll vomit.
Iamleavingnowbecauseiampanickingovernothingimportantbye
Hi/bye Fabigail! *hugs*
Hi Gabriel!!
Back!! I was right. Our mini Easter holidays go from Thursday the 29th to Tuesday the 2nd. :3
So the 28th is good for me.
It is below my ribs to the right side. I have tried drinking water but it does make me feel like vomiting
Bye Fab!
Hi/bye Fabi!!
I Tweeted to Derek and invited him and gave him an RSVP by March 10th because lets face it he'd procrastinate telling us so I eliminted him procrastinating and if he does I will shove thy dynamite stick down his throat
DEREK OF THE LANDYS SHALL COME!
He better... XD
I will shove a stick through his head and make him a Derek-Kabob and I see him reading this and deciding he thinks im a lunatic
Yeah, he's reading this and laughing so hard...
DONT TELL ME I HAVE ISSUES LANDY I KNOW I DO!
*sits in tree*
I did invite him tis only matter of if he'll be a kind soul and come
He has to dress up in a bunny costume!!!!!!!!!! AND THROW EASTER EGGS AT US!!!
*Laughs*
*Stops and clutches stomach*
OWWWWW!!!!
He so would! It'd be hilarious and then we can be epic Blogladians and attack him with bananas and baguettes
DEATH!!
*rushes over*
*imagines Derek in a bunny costume throwing Easter eggs at us*
*dies*
*runs to Death*
GET DOCTOR NYE!
*dies of laughter*
The accent just makes it better
I just see Derek in the tree, waiting to ambush us, then he starts throwing the eggs like grenades. XD
It would be the funniest thing ever. :D
I really hope he could come it'd be so much fun for everyone
Hm.
I have to go have a shower and get ready for the day or something,
Bbs!!
HULLO AGAIN!!
*is back*
Ugh... Sorry... I forgot I was on here, then I ate something and filled up my drink bottle then watched part of Harry Potter Part 2
WB Death!!
It's OK. We all do that occasionally. :)
How are you?
(Need pain killers... Allowed to have pain killers in half an hour...)
I'm fine.
I THINK I STILL HAVE MY COLD WHICH STARTED LAST WEEK OR SOMETHING. -_-"
You?
(If you want half an hour to pass quickly, watch some YouTube. :3)
Zaffy having technical issues called throwing up
Zaffy?!
*Hugs*
You okay?
ZAF ARE YOU OK??
I gotta go shopping now. At least it's at book stores. :3
BYE!! GET BETTER YOU TWO!!
Will try...
Bye! (I'm leavin' too...)
Ugh trying go
Go Derek nearly 4am and hit 100,000 words!
Well, I was going to go book shopping.
But when dad and I hopped into the car, and dad turned the key, the car made a strange sound.
It was the sound of a dead battery.
I don't think I'd get a tattoo in the first place, even if it was Skulduggery Pleasant related. :P
Hello Blogland!
I don't think anyone's here...
Ah well. Nevermind. Bye.
Funny, I thought I saw someone somewhere...
Oh, okay. Bye.
Anyone onlineee?
Hi Lucy!
For a little bit, then I'll be going to sleep, nearly midnight!
Hello!
I'm guessing the UK is 8 hours ahead of you, then~
How are you?
I'm ok, a bit tired and spooked by the random story segment that had to come out of my head at this hour. It's a really eerie plot.
And yeah, that sounds about right. I'm the same time as Val.
How are you this morning?
I'm tired, too. But I just woke up...
And I'm in a sort of paranoid mood... Which isn't great. Thankfully, it's also borderline hyper, so it's not so bad. :)
I always forget American timezones in relation to the UK. But I know what time it is for the old Aussie regs. Well, usually. XD
I don't do much time-converting, really. For Ireland and the UK, it's just the time it says below the comment. Australia is somewhere earlier than me only really way later because of the international date line. I know Zaf and Aretha are three hours ahead, and I think the most of the other Ameriminions are on the east coast as well, but I don't really know. I just...I don't have much of a sense of time for me, let alone anyone else!
And I am falling asleep, wbd and msd
I'm generally pretty good with numbers. :)
Okay.
I should probably get up soon... But nobody is up, hmm...
Oh joy! First!
*sighs* wbd, dedding.
I'm better with colors than numbers... I get distracted too easily to really be a math person.
I lack all creative talent, so, thankfully, there are numbers I can learn the language of:3
Maths is just another language, in my eyes. C:
I can't drawl very well, but I paint a bit. And write some when I'm in the mood. I'm more of a music person, though. Music and dance. Oh, also I have a weird talent with the inkle loom, maybe the one thing I excel at without trying.
Numbers and math and all that... Well, I don't have the attention span.
And I am sleeping now, g'night!
