Oooh FUN!



My editor has read the first (rough) draft of Book 9, and he loves it. I'm on the home stretch now — the end is in sight (in more ways than one). Over the next two or three weeks my head is going to be down and I'm going to working hard to fill in those gaps, to link up those scenes, to write those missing chapters. Right now I'm at 100,000 words. The end result will PROBABLY be about 120,000 words — maybe just slightly shorter than KOTW. Of course, in order to finish the book, I'll need to pick a winner of the Who Gets to Die competition we ran ages ago, and then that lucky reader will get to meet their grisly end...

And because I, and therefore WE, are on the home stretch, this blog is going to be choc-a-block with announcements and reveals over the next few weeks. By the end of THIS week, for example, we'll be revealing the cover for the Armageddon-Outta-Here short story collection. Next week, we'll reveal the full, WRAPAROUND cover for the collection (it's awesome). And the week after that? We'll be revealing the title for the ninth, and last, Skulduggery Pleasant book.

  1. I WANT TO SEE THE NEW COVER!!! I WANT TO KNOW THE TITLE! So much anticipation...

  5. ...everyone is now shouting at Derek...

    ReplyDelete
  6. NO DEREK! STOP WITH THE TEASING AND THE SUSPENSE

    *joins star under the rock *

    ReplyDelete
  7. DEREK COME ON

    (Even though I know it's not going to happen, we can hope, right?)

    ReplyDelete
  8. Hey Derek,

    if you see this, can I ask if Chase has been put into book 9?

    Its just his daughter was asking me today and I wasn't sure how to answer her.

    ReplyDelete
  9. WOW.

    *squiggles helplessly*

  10. @Silente: Yay! :)
    Welcome to my rock. :)

    @Amethyst: WHY WOULD WE NOT. D:

    I've never been first on a post before, haha.
    . . .
    I've been commenting regulary for over two years.
    I come on nearly every day.
    I've came on nearly every day for two years.
    I . . .
    Grr. :P

  13. Hello Star, Silente, Snoogy, Kestrel, Taia, Emerald, and anyone else!
    How are you all doing?

    ReplyDelete
  14. I'm torn! I want another sp book to read but I don't want to finish the sp series! I want to know the title and see the cover but I don't want the end to draw closer! The suspense and the fear and the dread are killing me!

    ReplyDelete
  15. Star, that makes me feel better about never having gotten it either :)


    IENI! *tacklehugs* I don't think I've seen you since I came back!:)

    ReplyDelete
  16. I'm fine thanks amethyst

    @star this is a nice rock. Very cosy :-)

    ReplyDelete
  17. Silente, I think that's what all of are feeling :)

    *thirds Em's asking*

    ReplyDelete
  18. Hey Emerald. Hey Ieni. Hey star. Hey Taia. Hey Amethyst. Hey Snoogy. Hey Kestrel. Hey anyone I accidently missed. How are y'all_

    ReplyDelete
  19. I'm fine...except I'm worried about the last Skulduggery ending...

    ReplyDelete
  20. *fourths ems asking*

    I hate the feeling. Its horrible. And you just know Derek doing an evil laugh back at his house.
    *shakes fist at Derek*

    ReplyDelete
  21. Hey Kes, nice to see you again!!:):) I hope you are well! *ninjaeroplanetacklehugs*

    Hey Starry-Eyed!! Did you get my last email or have I not replied to one?

    Not staying long, sorry!:/

    ReplyDelete
  22. Silente(do you mind being called Storm? As a nickname for Tempest?), when I saw the Who's Gonna Die competition, I thought he meant for characters and who he was going to kill off, and I'm just like O.O

    ReplyDelete
  23. @Silente: I think it's Eve's cousin. :)

    I don't want to read Book Nine if it means the series ending.
    The desire for it not to end overrules the desire to read another SP book.
    That said, I'll read it anyway, and I'll love it, right left diagonal up until the ending - at which point, it'll end. D:
    I hate this.

    @Kes: Really? Oh, good. :)
    Well, not good for you, but . . .:P

  24. Hey! I want a rock, too! :P

    I said if I was smart that I would
    Save up for a piece of sting
    And a rock to wind the string around
    because
    Everybody wants a rock to
    Wiiiiind a piece of string around...


    @Star&Kes: Neither have I, and I'm up to three years, now.
    BUT I repeat my point about how the number of posts in the future hopefully greatly outnumber those that you've been around for in the past. Which is to say that if you hang around, then by a fractional kind of a standpoint, the probability of getting first kind of becomes more? Kind of?

    #ChaseForbook9

    ReplyDelete
  25. *shrugs* sure you can call me Storm. I like it. Its creative. *nods* when I saw the competition I immediately signed myself up. Then signed my friend up.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Star, yeah. Although part of it probably has to do with how I was gone for 8 months...

    And of course it's Eve's cousin! Obviously... XD

    Taia, 3 years? Wow. And, logically, that'd work, except for the fact that I used to come on way more often, so my chances are actually /de/creasing.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Also

    Hey Amethyst! :)

    IENI IENI IENI HI.

    #ChaseForBook9

    ReplyDelete
  28. @Taia: They are awesome lyrics, though. :)

    @Ieni: I got it! I haven't replied, because I only remember when I check my emails, and when I am, I'm usually procrastinating, so I don't really have time to answer it because I should be doing homework, so all I have to do now is remember to remember . . . :P

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  29. @Taia: Yeah. :) :)
    *waits happily for the years of the future to bring more posts to me*

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  30. Storm, I signed up too, but I used my taken name and my OC's info and then I found out that you were supposed to use your given name and stuffs, and I was just :3

    ReplyDelete
  31. ... I didn't even know there WAS a Who's Gonna Die? competition. o0 ^^

    @Kes: *nods* Maybe.
    Good luck, anyway. I hope you get there someday. :) ^^

    #ChaseForBook9

    ReplyDelete
  32. If I remember rightly I did it twice. Once with my given name and once with my taken name...not sure why..

    ReplyDelete
  33. Speaking of years of the future, the blog's not going to die after Skulduggery ends, right? Because that would be bad.

    ReplyDelete
  34. I didn't do it. *whistles innocently*

    (Because I'd rather one of you got in than me got in, yeah?
    Which is less to do with actual being-nice-ness than wanting-to-feel-like-I'm-being-nice-ness, really.)

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  35. It shouldn't do I mean..the blog is for Derek not Skulduggery so in theory it should continue after Skulduggery...you know...ends.

    ReplyDelete
  36. @Kes: IT IS NOT. *glares at anyone who dares oppose me*

    The only thing that will really kill the blog would be the making of a successful SP movie.

    . . .

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  37. The blog won't die... because Derek can post other stuff too, not related to Skulduggery.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Star, we all appreciate your sacrifice. :) *bows*

    Although I don't understand why you weren't in LSoDM, since he basically put every single other regular in.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Derek, I'm going to die because of this freaking series

    ReplyDelete
  40. I would have definitely done it with my taken name, though.
    I generally do everything with my taken name, unless I have to do it with my given name. :P

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  41. MY HEAD CAN"T WORK WITH THIS MUCH AWESOME COMING!!!!!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  42. @Kes: I didn't ask to be. XD The others did.

    . . .
    Yeah. :P

    Plus at the time it felt a bit pester-y.
    I will live without my name in a book. *nods sacrificially*

    Thanks. :)

    Hey Ivy! :)
    I'm a bubble, so I'm not really alive, so I can't really die, but I would metaphorically die if I wasn't already broken. :)

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  43. Sounds AMAZING!!!
    YAY AWESOME AND EXITING ANNOUNCEMENTS!!!!!!!!!!!! XD

    ReplyDelete
  44. @Kes: Because loads of movie people would come here and invade. :(
    I wouldn't like that.
    Blogland is special.

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  45. @Star: Thanks. *agrees* :)
    And- :):)

    @Kes: Derek's still an existing guy when he's not writing SP, right? He'll be a guy writing other things. Who has and/or keeps many things. Including a blog. This blog. *nods*

    Hi Val/Ivy! :):)

    #ChaseForBook9

    ReplyDelete
  46. There's so many people I don't know coming on! :)

    ReplyDelete
  47. I'm probably going to cry at the end. Even if its not sad (which, knowing Derek, it will be) I'll cry. And shout. And scream. And then get shouted at by my family. Then I'll rant for days on end.

    ReplyDelete
  48. @Amethyst: I KNOW THEM ALL MWAHAHAHAHAHA don't worry they're nice
    ish
    *frowns*
    Well, slightly nice.
    If you stretch your imagination.

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  49. Taia, indeed. And I'm sure he'll keep posting. By the blog dying I meant the Blogland part of it, which had better not, because, as you said, Derek still exists.

    Amethyst, they're all awesome :)

    ReplyDelete
  50. ...how much of my imagination do I have to stretch???

    ReplyDelete
  51. I'm good, quite great.
    I'll be leaving for school soon so MSD

    ReplyDelete
  52. Star, I don't think any stretch of the imagination can make Val qualify as "nice." :P

    ReplyDelete
  53. I probably won't cry. It doesn't seem like the kind of thing I'd cry at.

    I'll sit there
    staring at the ceiling
    feeling numb
    and broken
    and then I will distract myself
    and then I will remember and I will moan at you all and you'll be sick of me
    oh wait you're already sick of me. :)

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  54. @star ISH? That's comforting. Well either way.. HELLO ANYBODY I MAY NOT HAVE MET BEFORE! I COME IN PEACE. UNLESS YOU ATTACK ME. THEN I MIGHT NOT BE SO PEACEFUL!

    ReplyDelete
  55. Star, yeah, that'll be me. And we could never be sick of you :)

    Wait, Duck, are you an Aussie?

    ReplyDelete
  56. Hey Duck! Hi Mistical! :) :)

    It always feels weird being this close to the end of SP, because in my mind, I'm nowhere NEAr the end. I still have KOTW and LSODM to gain and consume, first, y'know?
    It's like knowing an apocalypse is coming, but not being alive yet, so the end of the world & of life means nothing, because you don't yet know the world and life, y'know? It's odd.

    #ChaseForBook9

    ReplyDelete
  57. We're not sick of you Star! I enjoy your crazy rambling. Its one of the highlights of my day.

    ReplyDelete
  58. @Amethyst: *looks at her solemnly* A great deal of it.
    It would be recommended that you update your imagination with a rubber extension for the task. It wouldn't do for it to break, would it?

    @Kes: No, but 'veryslightlynice'?
    At a big stretch?

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  59. Why, yes. I do live in Australia!

    ReplyDelete
  60. Sorry everyone I can't stay on I have to go to school!

    Have a good day/night!

    ReplyDelete
  61. Hello, friends who I haven't spoken to in months.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Taia, you haven't read KotW and LSoDM yet? I am sorry for your loss.

    Star, maybe. I think "a bit" needs to be added, so it's "veryslightlyniceabit", and then it is, just barely, conceivable. -ish.

    ReplyDelete
  63. I have to go now as well.

    BYE EVERYONE!!!

    ReplyDelete
  64. @Silente: REALLY???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? :) :) :)

    *writes '*screams*' in Slipknot font, because it looks like a wide demented smiley face*
    *by that, I mean I'm smiling muchly :) :) *
    Thanks, Silente. :)

    Thanks, Kes. :) :) :)

    You shouldn't encourage me, though, guys. XD

    @Taia: *nods* :/ I know what you mean.

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  65. Hello Valkyrie/Ivy! I haven't met you yet! I'm Amethyst!

    ReplyDelete
  66. @Kes: Ah. Well, then, we'll all still exist, won't we? Unless the end of Book 9 is really too much, of course. :P

    @Star: *quietly refuses to ever be sick of you*
    *EVER*

  67. Fours, Misti, Duck! :(

  68. Bye, Miss Tickle!

    Val, I think in my case it's been over a year. Which I'm going to blame you for even though it's mostly my fault.

    ReplyDelete
  69. *smiles at Taia as well* :)
    Thanks!

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  70. Hi Amethyst! I used to be here all the time. It kind of strange to see so many new people here..,

    ReplyDelete
  71. Bye duck!

    Yes star. Your ramblings lighten my mood. And I'll never be sick of you! OF ANY OF YOU! Your my super crazy mega awesome second family :-)
    *hugs all*
    *which is really rare*
    *Cuz I don't do hugs*
    *like ever*

    ReplyDelete
  72. Well, either way, Kestrel, its good to see you here.

    (Is the my fault thing a joke, or did I do something that I'm unaware of, or...?

    ReplyDelete
  73. *hugs Storm back*

    Val, there are so many of them. And they're weird.

    @At all the people I'm talking about- yes, I'm joking.

    Val, no I'm not...

    ReplyDelete
  74. By the way, should I call you Valkyrie or Ivy or Valkyrie/Ivy or what?

    ReplyDelete
  75. I usually go by Val, but anything works.

    ReplyDelete
  76. Bye Duck! *waves* Have a good day!
    Bye Mistical! *waveS* Also have a good day!


    @Kessie: It's not a loss. It's just not yet a gain, either. :) (... I think.)

    *throws a smile in Val's direction* :)

    #ChaseForBook9

    ReplyDelete
  77. @Ivy: Joke. :)

    @Silente: *points to profile picture*
    Imagine that's a massive smiley face. :)
    Thanks. :) :) :)

    @Ivy: Yeah . . . XD
    We've been through whole generations since you leftish. XD

    ReplyDelete
  78. *looks slightly offended at kes's comment*
    *remembers she likes being weird*
    *stops being offended*
    *tries to remember if she's met val before*

    ReplyDelete
  79. Val, yeah, a joke.

    Taia, I was more sharing condolences in advance for what you'll feel when you /do/ read them.

    Gtg, brb

    ReplyDelete
  80. @Kes: Ah, your profile picture! XD

    @Ivy: Well, yes, you have, but you also missed some bad stuff so it's all cool. :)

  82. WHEN PEOPLE CALL ME WEIRD IT ACTUALLY FEELS LIKE A COMPLIMENT NOW EVEN IF THEY MEAN IT IN A BAD WAY
    I JUST FEEL PLEASED TO BE CLASSIFIED AS IT. :P

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  83. I'm pretty sure the main reason I didn't go on much was all the role playing, but last time I really remember being here was last summer when Adra was at my house.

    ReplyDelete
  84. Val, have we met before? I can't remember which is probably really bad but is at the same time the truth...

    ReplyDelete
  85. Being weird is awesome so never take it in a bad way ever.

    That's, like, a life rule.

    ReplyDelete
  86. @Ivy: Yeah.
    We've gone back to blogfighting, recently . . . O_O
    Although I've come to ADORE the roleplaying. It's just . . . stories. :)

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  87. *nods at Ivy firmly*
    Yeah.

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  88. Silente, unless you used to have a different name on here, I don't think we've ever met. In either case, hello!

    ReplyDelete
  89. I have to go now, but I'll be back in about thirty minutes!
    See you guys later!
    *waves to everyone*

    ReplyDelete
  90. The blog fighting hasn't been happening QUITE as much... its been cutting down from when I first joined...

    ReplyDelete
  91. @Silente: *hugs back* You rock. *nods* :)

    @Star: WOW.
    I want a smile like THAT.
    Screams as smiles... That's such a crazy thing. idk. Awesome.

    @Kes: Oh. Sorry.
    Correction retracted, then.
    And I am now frightened.
    Thank you for the sympathy.
    :P

    *agrees, on the note of weird=awesome*

  92. Silente arrived on the same day as Annika, back in September . . .

    I like September.
    It's when my birthday is.
    Does anyone know when Hunter's birthday is?
    Because I don't.
    It irritates me. :P
    (Then again, he doesn't really care about birthdays. It's not like he ever remembers how old he is. :P)

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  93. Back!

    Star, we've gone back to blogfighting? Really? How have I not noticed this? I /love/ blogfighting!

    ReplyDelete
  94. Fours, Taia! :(

    @Silente: Yeah, but when you don't see it for a year and then it's suddenly here . . . XD
    Blogfighting was The Thing when I was new. Nice to see it again. :)

    (Crap I feel so old)

    @Taia: I didn't think of it like that. O_O
    (That's what I'm gonna be drawing in lessons tomorrow, haha. XD Screaming as smiling.)

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  95. Bye amethyst!

    In which case val..
    *clears throat*
    Why hello new person. Nice to meet you. I am Silente Tempest also known as Sil, Si, Miss Tempest and most recently Storm. I feel I should ask first off all are you like the Valkyrie in the book by which I mean hate vampires?

    ReplyDelete
  96. (Speaking of birthdays, I don't know how many of you remember Amanda but hers was yesterday)

    ReplyDelete
  97. @Kes: *laughs* XD

    Yeah. Mostly, uh . . . Chi and Silente and Blake?

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  98. See you, Amethyst! *waves*

    @Star: Maybe Hunter's birthday is every day.
    And that's why he doesn't care.
    Because if every day was your birthday, you'd probably lose interest quite quickly. :P

    #ChaseForBook9

    ReplyDelete
  99. @Ivy: I remember her!
    And ooh. O_O

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  100. Yey Taia said I rock!
    *does a happy dance*

    @kes yeah blog land exploded into blog fighting about when me and chio clashed...

    ReplyDelete
  101. @Taia: *laughs* :) :) :)
    Thank you. :)
    I love that explanation. :) :)

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  102. Val, happy birthday Amanda!
    Mine's coming up soon as well. Well, by soon, I mena in approximately a month, but whatever.

    Star, excellent. *rubs hands together*

    ReplyDelete
  103. Taia, that is a pretty great explanation :)
    It would also explain why he doesn't know how old he is.

    ReplyDelete
  104. (In reality, though, he had to be born at SOME time. :P)

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  105. Why did he have to be born at some time?

    BECAUSE HOW ELSE DOES HE EXIST?

    (I mean, he could have been grown in a test tube or summat, but he wasn't.)

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  106. Things are so much easier when you're a bubble and reproduce asexually. *sighs*

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  107. Hi Silente. Not gonna lie, I'm not exactly the biggest fan of vampires, but I could make an exception if you're one (which seemed to be what you were suggesting).

    ReplyDelete
  108. (Silente is a vampire, yeah, and so is Kes these day. :O)

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  109. @star well if you think of dimentions and how there would be an infinite amount of dimentions this means there is and infinite amount of possibilities meaning that technically you would be constantly given birth to in one dimention or another. Following that logic technically you could claim that everyday is your birthday as in one dimention at least it is :-)

    ReplyDelete
  110. Star, stop using logic. It's offputting.

    Star, I would like to point out that it was not my decision to become a vampire. It was Mist's fault.

    ReplyDelete
  111. *days

    *facepalm*
    I was getting my maths wrong today because my brain was transposing words - or, in this case, numbers.
    Ugh.
    This is a hindrance. :P

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  112. Yes I am a vamp val. Although I'm usually under control...usually....

    ReplyDelete
  113. @Val: I do! And- Awesome! Happy post-birthday to her! C:

    @Silente: C:

    @Star: :) :)

    @Kess: Thank you. And, true! Hoorah!

    Star, maybe he was born in, like, a time warp of sorts, so he really was born on every day? :P

    #ChaseForBook9

    ReplyDelete
  114. @Silente: *nods*
    You couldn't prove it, though, not knowing how the layers of reality have warped you.
    And fairy nuff, but in my story, which is only ONE dimension (well, multiple ones that repeatedly overlap and confuzzle me, but), he needs to have ONE birthday. :P
    I'm fine him not having one, though. :P

    "Star, stop using logic. It's offputting."
    That should go on Snow's quote blog. XD

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  115. Star, that's better than what I do, which is multiply addition problems instead of adding them. :3

    I like Storm's explanation :)

    ReplyDelete
  116. @Taia: Maybe he was
    but he can't, strangely enough, remember being born, so he wouldn't know about it, and his birth certificate must have said SOMETHING when he had one. :P

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  117. @Kes: :P
    Storm's explanation is good. :)

    All these explanations are good. Natural arguing urges making me disagree, sorry. :P

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  118. Yey. Technically you could also apply that to any situation too...christmas, Easter, new years, Halloween, other important days...

    *wonders where the smartness came from*

    ReplyDelete
  119. So exciting! And mildly terrifying!! x

    ReplyDelete
  120. Star, why, thank you. I've never been recommended for inclusion on a quote blog before :)

    BIRTH CERTIFICATES ARE FOR THE WEAK!

    ReplyDelete
  121. @Silente: I don't know where the smartness came from, either. *frowns*
    It looks a bit out of place on you.
    (Joking. XD)

    #ChaseForBookNine

    Hello S.E.Berrow!

  125. @Silente: Wow. That theory is both amazing and terrifying. O.o

    @Star: Transposing numbers in maths is THE WORST. My friend always turns around and points out that my answers are wrongggg and I go back through them pointing out that I didn't make a mathematical error, I just forgot the 1 from a 15, wrote a fractional index upside-down, and mis-copied the original question with an addition that should've been a subtraction. :P

  126. Why thank you Taia!

    I hate when you copy down questions wrong. Cause then you solve them, check the answers and get all confused about where you went wrong.

    ReplyDelete
  127. @Taia: D: D:
    Yeah.

    @Kes: He's inside my head. Unless he's lying to me, he wasn't born every day. And even if he was, then he'd think that was quite cool but would insist that he still had to have a birthday because of cake.
    I'm not sure he even likes cake. :P

  128. @Star: THEN HIS BIRTH CERTIFICATE WOULD SAY HE WAS BORN ON EVERYDAY, OFC. :P

    And @Star: Y'know, I thought the very same thing about the quote blog, there. xD

  130. Why wouldn't he like cake? Cake is amazing and stuff and...

    *looks at the time*

    Oh. I was meant to have gone by now..

    SORRY GUYS GTG NOW C Y'ALL TOMOROW I HOPE! :P

    ReplyDelete
  131. @Taia: NORMAL BIRTH CERTIFICATES DO NOT SAY THAT
    and he was FAIRLY normal when he was a baby, you know. :P

    I added it to the quote blog, btw . . . :P

  133. I'm thinking of doing a Dublin Daes family tree.

    The fucking effort of it!
    I hate my brain.

    ReplyDelete

  135. @Tempest: Yes. *agrees* That happens far too often for me, too. :P


    @Star: But how could he be lying to you if he doesn't remember being born, so he doesn't know when he was born? For all HE knows, he could've been born every day. :P

    ...He could have ACCESS to cake every day, as he chooses?

    Aw, bye Kestrel! See oyu soon, hopefully! *waves*

  136. *pops back on for one comment*
    YOU WOULD LIKE CAKE BECAUSE AKE HAS SUGAR IN IT. IT ALSO HAS ICING WHICH IS REALLY TASTY. YOU CAN GET A VARIETY OF CAKES (MMM CHOCOLATE) AND THEY COME IN DIFFRENT SHAPES AND SIZES AMD SUIT EVERY OCCASION AND ARE GENERALLY AMAZING AND IM ACTUALLY GOING TO LEAVE NOW BYE!

    ReplyDelete
  137. Before I go -
    He has access to cake every day anyway.
    I'm sure he can portal to a place with cake.
    Multiple places with cake.
    There are a lot of portals in the world.
    Or will be.
    *scowls at tenses*
    But if he doesn't KNOW he was born every day, then all I need to know is what day he THINKS his birthday is. :)
    What day he was ACTUALLY born is irrelevant. :P

    ReplyDelete
  138. @Silente: CHOCOLATE IS A DRUG!

    (They can still eat chocolate. But it's not the same. :/)
    (Because the more mild the drug is, the lesser the effect, yeah?)

    And - SUGAR ALSO HAS SUGAR IN IT.
    WHY WOULD YOU NOT JUST EAT SUGAR?

  139. *really going now*

    (Although, Hunter does like baking cakes, if anyone's interested. :P)

    #ChaseForBookNine

    ReplyDelete
  140. @Star: I sympathise. :(

    @Star: YES BUT MOST PEOPLE AREn'T BORN EVERY DAY.
    IF YOU WERE BORN ON EVERY DAY, THEN THAT'S WHAT YER BIRTH CERTIFICATE WOULD SAY. :P
    And, since when does Hunter need 'normal', anyway? :P

    @Em: If it helps with the writing/figuring/whatnot... idk. It sounds like maybe that could be useful.
    If you don't want to, then I'd suggest don't, because why would you if it's just a burden?
    BUT if you think it'd be handy to have, for whatever reason, or if you just feel like doing it, then do? :)
    (And- your brain is great. Naturally. :])

  141. Ah!
    I've also gotta go.

  143. Hi! *waves*
    How do you feel about going swimming? *grins not-quite-evilly*

    ReplyDelete
  144. ...swimming? why swimming?

    Hello Moss/Fabi.

    *brings a wave of water crashing down on Kestrel*

    ReplyDelete
  146. *claps hands together above head to form an energy shield right before water hits*

    Are you an elemental?

    ReplyDelete
  147. Yup!

    *makes water surround Kestrel and sweep her into the lake*

    ReplyDelete
  148. *collapses shield and swims away from Amethyst*

    *dives under and pulls Amethyst down*

    ReplyDelete
  149. Well, I have a top hat.

    And I'm not here, sorry.

    I probably could be, but I really don't want to risk more conflict by staying...

  150. Bye, Fabi :( *hugs*

    ReplyDelete
  152. *swears*

    *swims out*

    *taps symbol on knee and is dried*

    Can we either truce for cookies or pause a bit for me to get my swords?

    ReplyDelete
  153. Okay...

    *steals all the cookies and runs into the forest, grabbing my swords as I go*

    ReplyDelete
  154. Hey! Wait up!
    *runs into forest, following Kestrel*

    ReplyDelete
  155. *eats all the cookies but one*

    Fine. *hands Amethyst the one cookie*

    (You can call me Kes or Kessie if you want)

    ReplyDelete
  156. I would eat that faster if I were you. I'm liable to steal it.

    Can I call you Amy, or do you have another nickname that you prefer?


    ReplyDelete
  157. You can call me whatever you want! I don't really have a nickname...

    MINE! *hurriedly finishes eating cookie*

    ReplyDelete
  158. Thank you, Gladys :)

    Non-sequitur: Do you listen to Welcome to Night Vale?

    ReplyDelete
  159. Yes! But I started recently so I'm only on episode 21...

    ReplyDelete
  160. It is beautiful.

    Unless you don't ship Cecilos. In which case, I will find you, and I will skiiiin you.

    ReplyDelete
  161. I do! Don't skin me!

  162. *smiles*

    Okay, good. Then there is nothing you need fear.

    Well, except for the spider people.

    But we're not supposed to know about them. *smiles again*
