The Dying of the Light

The final book.

The last Skulduggery.

I've been writing these books since 2005, so for me it's been nine years of living with these characters, in this world. I knew saying goodbye was not going to be easy...

But I haven't had to say goodbye yet. Not really. I wrote the book. I edited. I went through it again and again. I decided on covers, on approaches. I approved tour schedules and special events. I prepared. I tweeted. I blogged. I kept busy. I kept looking forward...

But now... now (most of) the preparation is done. I just have to turn up now, and talk, or sign, or talk and sign, and meet people and go places.

It's going to sink in NOW. I can feel it.

No more Skulduggery Pleasant.


I'm going to give my usual "No Spoilers" speech now. So, like, no spoilers, people. The comment section above is for spoilers, not this one.

But even outside of this blog, please be considerate of your fellow Minions. Don't go blasting spoilers on Facebook or Twitter or Tumblr. Be subtle about it, and if you can't be subtle, go LOUD with the spoiler warning.

And when I say spoiler I don't just mean" "Oh my god, I can't believe THIS CHARACTER did THAT to THAT OTHER CHARACTER!"

I also mean spoilers in a more general sense. For example, saying things like: "Derek, I can't believe you did that! I'll never forgive you! How could you?? That was my favourite character!!"

Or: "I'm so delighted! I loved it and the ending was just what I wanted!"

You have friends, Minions, who know your hopes and dreams. They know your favourite characters. They know what you're dreading. So don't confirm any of these things when you comment, even if you make sure not to get too specific. If you love the book, tell me. If you hate the book, tell me that too. But keep in mind that other people will be reading, and if you give away what kind of ending the book has, you've just cheated them out of finding out for themselves.

I love your enthusiasm. Your enthusiasm makes these books what they are. So while you're being considerate of your friends, be sure to revel in your enthusiasm, and your excitement, and your dread, and your horror, and your happiness and your despair.

I hope you like it.

(That first Requiem was amazing.)

Star Inkbright said...

I was going to find good parts to post here, but I couldn't be bothered so I just gave a speech. :P

*thinks the correct answer to Death and Sophia's argument depends on what, exactly, Ashlea is*

Star Inkbright said...

*but I tend to agree with Xeath* *Ashlea is really only half a person, same as Silente is*

@Death: YES.

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: No, Rose, you have just changed. What is left of you is you.
Then help her god damn it. Make sure she doesn't. If you try to kill Ashlea, I will kill you. So that's one dead before we even start. If you manage to kill Ashlea, that's two. Leri could be the third. How many have to die for the chance that killing Ashlea could actually help Silente in any way?

Jophiel said...

(I got knocked out because the evil punch kept trying to kill me and I changed my dress so many times...)

Star Inkbright said...

@Death: XD XD XD

Star Inkbright said...

(If Ashlea and Silente are only half-people, does that make them like sex cells, with only 23 chromosomes?)

(crap I keep trying to put Silente's characters into a biological context :P)

Jophiel said...

No one has to die, Dragona. Getting rid of Ashlea would not count as a death. She will return to where she belongs and there will be a reflection for Leri so she be lonely and she will still have her.

Star Inkbright said...

(Or does one of them have 22 and one of them have 24 so it's a pair?
Wait, no, they haev to have more than that, I mean, they both have the same appearance, correct? So they both have all the genes for THAT . . .)

Dragona Pine said...

(*Sophia, Rose.)


Sophia: People will die. And you will be the first. So... If you're missing a part of you, you're not a person, correct? So I wouldn't be murdering anyone if I ripped you apart.

Star Inkbright said...

(DO THEY HAVE all the same chromosomes but just with different genes swicthed on or off to change their personailties (so Ashlea has the nice ones and Siletne has the nasty ones?
That would mean Sophia was correct, I do believe.
That would mean they both had DIFFERENT genes to the ORIGINAL Silente, because she clearly doesn't have the genes to allow her to be as nice as Ashlea/nasty as Silente so they must both have new combos.
Do they divvy up the genes or do they both keep things from the original Silente? Like, say Silente was stubborn, would they both be stubborn, or would only one of them get it? If so, how would they decide whether it was good or bad? You could say, stubbornness is bad, Silente has it, or you could say, determination is good, Ashlea has it.
Wait, wait. They probably both have it. But Ashlea's traits are probably good-motivated and so are adapted to be good and vice versa.
Like in Divergent, when Peter said he was horrible becaise he liked hurting people, and Four said that he liked hurting people too, but he didn't give into it, so unlike Peter, he wasn't evil.
So maybe if the original Silente had that hurting-people trait it just wouldn't be very visible in Ashlea because she would supress it.
But it would be in Silente.

I'm finding this very interesting, but you can probably just ignore me. :P

Jophiel said...

(*Facepalms*
Sorry. Yeah, I meant Sophia.)

So Sil is not a person either? Judhipor left me. I still have more parts of me. You would be murdering me. If you killed her, I would only be angry because she used to be part of me. She's not human. She's not a person.

Dragona Pine said...

(Star, lol. It is pretty interesting. :) )

Inky Flame said...

good morning ^^

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: So because you have some left of you, you're a person? Ashlea has some left of her. I think I'm getting a double standard from you.

Star Inkbright said...

Hey Inky. :)

I think Ashlea and Silente are still both people. Just with different personalities.
*shrugs*

Inky Flame said...

How is everyone this fine morning?

Im going to see 'if I stay' at the flicks later

Star Inkbright said...

@Dragona: 'Tis. :)

Star Inkbright said...

*hasn't heard of 'if I stay* :/

Inky Flame said...

neither did I until this morning :P
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wH6PNeTy6Nc

this is the trailer

Jophiel said...

(Morning Penguin!)

*She groaned loudly*

I'm original. Sil is original. Not Judi or Ashlea. They're not the originals. They need to return.

Inky Flame said...

(Morning Rose)

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: You're in the body of the original, but without that part you're still not you - so by your own admission you're not a person.
There's also James and Erica to think about. Do you think it will be that simple?

Jophiel said...

(I've applied to work at Maccas a few days ago, it would be the second time, and the first time I applied, I was shot down within four hours.

It's been a few days now. And now I kinda want them to email me saying that I don't have to job so this stress can be over.)

Star Inkbright said...

(But they're PEOPLE IN THEIR OWN . . .
*attempts to avoid directionally discriminating*
. . .
DAMMIT!

According to my guesswork based on half a GCSE Biology course, they both have a full set of genes which means they are proper people.
. . .
okay maybe that isn't awfully reliable

Inky Flame said...

(agree with Star on this matter
I was an A in Biology)

Jophiel said...

A part of me is gone, it hasn't made me not a person. I am a person. Silente is a person.

I'm sorry if it hurts Leri, but that's the way it's going to turn out.

Star Inkbright said...

I haven't finished yet, but I'm in top set. :)

Also, thank you, Inky. :)

Inky Flame said...

(What the fudge... O_o

I found this really weird, messed up video...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wenJ4wstxCU&index=5&list=FLMvKph9NngI1bjqPBlkSHoA)

Inky Flame said...

dim problem

I was also in top set XD

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: Silente has just lost part of her. Which is just in a different container. Or is it Ashlea that has lost a part of her? Your situations are exactly the same, yet you're a person and she isn't?

Star Inkbright said...

@Inky: Yay. :) *hi-fives :)*

Inky Flame said...

*hi fives back*

Alastair Cruciatus said...

If Ashlea is part of Silente, I don't think killing her ought to be considered murder. Piecing them together again would be far worse. To be suppressed and then fused with someone else, so there are no two individuals left, but one new one, is to lose your very existence in the most complete way possible.

Should I cease to exist, Death, because I am not the original possessor of this body? Because I was torn from my first self unwillingly?

Star Inkbright said...

@Inky: . . .
If I get that song stuck in my head . . . :P

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: Ashlea is alive. Which makes killing her murder by default. No matter where she came from.

Inky Flame said...

wahaha *evil laugh*

Star Inkbright said...

*agrees with Alastair* *Ashlea and Silente aren't each otehr and they aren't the original Silente either*

Star Inkbright said...

*if you put them back together, evil Silente and Ashlea die

INKY IT'S IN MY HEADDDDDDDDD D:

Inky Flame said...

HAHAHAHA sorry...oops

Star Inkbright said...

*laughs* 'Sokay. :P

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Then it's both. Call it whatever you will, it's unnecessary and a rather nightmarish position to be put in. There's no reason Death should change them back into one, or kill either of them.

Jophiel said...

(Sorry. Someone had the bright idea to call someone and lost the wifi...)

Alastair, you are part of Niccolo like Seven is part of me. If Seven were to take over, then we would be in the same boat.
Congratulations on the wedding, by the way.

Alastair Cruciatus said...

May suddenly disappear; I shouldn't have come here to begin with, really.

Jophiel said...

The reason I want to 'kill' Ashlea, is so that we can get Sil back, the Sil that we all know. Not have the half-complete Silente Tempest.

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: I somewhat agree, Alastair.
I'm all for killing someone if they deserve it. But Ashlea has hurt no one.

Star Inkbright said...

@Death: She is perfectly complete in her own right.

And Alastair isn't part of Niccolo. Alastair is his own person. Him and Niccolo just happen to share a body.

Star Inkbright said...

(Although Alastair and Niccolo are both part of the complex being that makes up . . . um . . . *gives the body they're in and the body's mind a name and says that name*)

Jophiel said...

*She threw up her hands in surrender*

Okay. Whatever. I'm going for a walk. And to check on the twins.

*She turned and stalked away, through the large, ornate doors, to Frigga's chambers*

*Leif and Kari were still trying to clobber the other with fluffy animals, but they stopped when their mother walked in. Leif teleported into Rose's arms, making her laugh*

Alastair Cruciatus said...

*smiles faintly* Thank you.

*almost to himself* I actually expended quite some effort ensuring that I possess Niccolò, not the other way around.

But I don't intend to draw comparisons. I intend to challenge the notion that Ashlea doesn't have as much a right to exist as anyone else.

Star Inkbright said...

(Don't you hate it when you're arguing with someone and they can't be bothered to argue with you so they just say you're correct even though they don't think that?
It means one of us still has an error in our heads. It's highly annoying.)

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: Well, that was certainly interesting.

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Alright, then. *watches her walk away*

Technically, Star, we are meant to be the same person. The fact that we aren't is the reason why we're all so horrendously unstable. That said, I'd rather constantly fight for myself and deal with the consequences than fade into everyone else.

Inky Flame said...

(aye Star, for me, its too early to be debating

did you know the human brain isn't fully functional until 10am)

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Yes, it was. *sighs* I'll be going now, I suppose- I only came here out of interest in that conversation.

Star Inkbright said...

@Alastair: . . .
I'd rather you were separate, too, I thinnk, although I say that rather tentatively because I could probably be convinced otherwise if people wanted to merge that much . . .

Star Inkbright said...

@Inky: I don't think that can be true, because we all wake up at different times. Plus, different people function differently in mornings. And if you're talking about the fact we're whatever-the-opposite-of-noturnal is, I'll point out that humans of different urges have different hormones etc. so are naturally awake at different times. Plus, 'ten o'clock' is a tentative time, because it is different in summer to winter, and if you're talking about a certain amount of time after dawn, then ten o'clock is at different times after dawn at different points in the year.
I apologise for my natural urges to argue which are currnelty flaring quite high after that philosophical thinking. D: You may ignore all that if you wish.

Okay, Alastair. :/

Dragona Pine said...

Assassin: *appears next to Sophia* You claimed you could beat me in hand to hand combat.


Sophia: I did.


Assassin: I wish to test it.


Sophia: Can it wait? My head is pounding and I want to kill something.

Assassin: You have been intoxicated.

Star Inkbright said...

*surely wanting to kill someone is good in hand-to-hand combat? She can just want to kill the Assassin :S

Jophiel said...

(Sorry. I had to leave because dinner. I didn't want all you guys waiting around for a half-assed reply after fifteen minutes.

I'm still eating now, but I've managed to convince my older brother to let me pull up my laptop...)

Inky Flame said...

Don't worry bout it, Star...I tend to be naïve when it comes to facts on tha internet

sorry if I poofed btw, my friend Izzy called me

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: I'm also wearing a dress.

Assassin: Clothing is not a contributing factor.

Sophia: It is. Fine. I'll kick your ass.

Assassin: *closes in on her, launching open-handed blows at her face*

Sophia: *grabs his wrist, flipping him over her head and slamming him into the ground*

Assassin: *gets to his feet, closing in again* *lashes out with a flurry of kicks*

Sophia: *blocks them with her knee, then swings a punch at his helmet*

Assassin: *grabs her wrist and twists her arm behind her back*

Sophia: *hisses*

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: *twists her arm back, hitting the assassin in the helmet to knock him back*

Assassin: *throws open handed blows at her face*

Sophia: *hisses as they hit her face, causing her nose to start leaking blood* *grabs his hand, twisting it back on itself* *hits him in the helmet, causing him to drop to his knees*

Assassin: *swipes his legs out to knock her feet from under her*

Sophia: *jumps over it, slamming him in the helmet on the way to the ground*

Assassin: *grabs her hand as it retreats, kneeing her in the stomach*

Star Inkbright said...

@Inky: I tend to be naive, full stop, I think. :)

*watches the fight*

Jophiel said...

*She sidled beside Bubble, one child in each arm. Leif was tugging at her hair while Kari kicked her brother*

Star Inkbright said...

Hi Death. :)

Inky Flame said...

I don't know what the problem is with me :)

Im gullible, naïve and I cant be devious...

like that time me and my friend izzy were planning for me to mitch off going to many tears. I felt so guilty I told my parents. My mum didn't speak to me two days.

the plan would have worked too

Jophiel said...

Hey Bub.

*Leif looked at the new voice and vanished, appearing in Star's arms with a giggle*

Leif...

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: I'm wearing armour, you know. Not that tinfoil you wear. *hits him in the stomach*

Assassin: *doubles over*

Sophia: *grabs the back of his helmet, slamming it into her knee* *blocks is futile attempts to protect himself, hitting him in the helmet until he hits the ground*

Jophiel said...

(Hey Penguin, did you know that they removed the word 'gullible' from the online dictionary? I was checking earlier because I wanted to quote the definition, and it wasn't there...)

Star Inkbright said...

@Inky: That sounds like me . . . :P

*jumps* ARGH! RANDOM BABY APPEARING!
*freezes*
death
take him off me
please

Inky Flame said...

Really Rose?
You know what they say Star, great minds think alike ;)

Jophiel said...

*Leif giggled at Star and kicked when Rose took him from her. She laughed quietly*

Sorry. Little tike learnt a knew little trick. Loki can do that.

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: As I said, I can beat you. No matter how good your technique is, I have brute force. You're the fighter type of person, I prefer frigates. And we know the result if they would collide. *wipes blood from her nose*

Assassin: *vanishes*

Jophiel said...

(I'm joking, Penguin. Sorry...)

Inky Flame said...

(god dammit XD)

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: Sorry. I was punching someone.

Jophiel said...

(I couldn't resist. Phil Lester got me with that this morning on his new video... Stupid Amazing Phil...)

Inky Flame said...

(I love Phil XD)

Star Inkbright said...

@Inky: And idiots seldom differ. XD

@Death: I actually got that, but only beacuse I was staring at it for a while wondering why they would take it out, and I thought "Oh, it must be beacuse of that joke about how the word gullible has been removed from the dictionary" and then I went "Wait . . ."

Star Inkbright said...

@Death: Well, just so long as she doesn't perform his trick on ME . . . *shaky laugh*

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: *wipes blood from her nose again* Bastard.

Jophiel said...

(Penguin, what would have happened if his parents named him Moe?
Like, Moe Lester?

XD))

(Well, bugger, Star. :D )

*She looked at Leif and shook her head*

I don't think he can do it on others...

Inky Flame said...

(hahahaha, funny funny

I cant believe he didn't know about seahorses existing...)

Jophiel said...

(I know. I didn't think they were real until I was about 8)

Inky Flame said...

(I always knew they existed

this kind of reminded me of my mum. She didn't think sloths were real until a few years ago XD)

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: So what's happening?

Dragona Pine said...
This comment has been removed by the author.
Jophiel said...

(Your mum sounds awesome!)

My twins are here, Keating. Touch them and die.

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: *sighs* Do I look like someone who would kill children?

Inky Flame said...

(meh...she tries to act a teenager at times, which is cool I guess...but she has a short fuse)

Jophiel said...

I said TOUCH. And if you kill them, than everyone and everything you hold dear will then be considered dead.

Star Inkbright said...

I always though seahorses existed, because no one's told me they haven't yet. Someone's told me mermaids don't exist, so I know they don't.
. . .
Wow, my perception of the universe is very relient on what people tell me . . .

Jophiel said...

(I think that mermaids could exist. Who's to say they don't? We have barely explored the bottom of the oceans.)

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: There's little that you can kill, Rose.

Inky Flame said...

(I think (and hope) if they did exist, the would be like the Harry Potter ones)

Jophiel said...

Jophiel said...

I can easily have Leri tortured in front of you.

Edward Fletcher said...

Hello?

Inky Flame said...

righty ho, I better go and get ready now...I am sooo indecisive when it comes to clothes...

hwyl fawr

Inky Flame said...

Oh and hi Ed

right, better go

Edward Fletcher said...

Bye inky

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: Leri? Why would I hold Leri dear?

Jophiel said...

Hello Ed.

*She glanced at the twins, both starting to fall asleep in her arms, and walked out, going to put them back in Frigga's chambers.

She reentered the Ball room and smiled*

Who's up for a dance?

Jophiel said...

Because, Keating, you were protecting her earlier.

Edward Fletcher said...

Hello death

Sorry, Gtg, bye

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: I was doing my job. You know, the peace keeping job? Nothing more, and nothing less. I had no intention of protecting Leri. I have no intention of having any interaction with your children, either.

Jophiel said...

Well, hypothetically, if you touch my children, you are dead.

(Bye Ed!)

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: Of course. And so would you be.

Jophiel said...

How would I be dead?! You'd be the one who deserved it!

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: You act as if I wouldn't flay you alive with my mind.

Jophiel said...

And next time, I'm going to crush you. Just you wait, Keating...

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: *smiles* Sure. Now if you excuse me, I am going to get something to eat.

Jophiel said...

*She rolled her eyes and clenched her hands tightly*

Go eat. I'm going to go try and fix those walls that you ruptured before the royal couple or any Asgardian, for that matter, sees it.

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: Let them see it. They might be impressed with my interior decorating.

Jophiel said...

*She turned to her, an unamused smile on her face*

I'm sorry, but the man I'm in love with, his sister and the man he once called brother, run this place. Loki is a prince of Asgard and always will be. I'm not letting them see this.

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: Alright. You think wallpaper would be better?

Jophiel said...

Nope. Do you see these walls? They're not wallpapery kind of walls. I'm going to need plaster. Then metal sheeting. Then paint. Or maybe I'll forget the metal plating and just get metallic spray paint.

But then the room will smell.

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: Okay. *starts getting some food*

Jophiel said...

*She pondered how she would hide the cracks for a while, before settling on using magic to try and put it together. She'd use a sigil to get it to stick once she got it in position*

(Shower...)

Dragona Pine said...

(Brb.)

Dragona Pine said...

(Back-ish.)

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

(....well then. That's...okay. Star were you analysing the genetics of my characters? O_o
I like how Zaf is just there like 'what do you want? If its to kill Sil I'm in' just no questions asked. That might be a future problem she'll have to deal with...is she still sentanced to death? She probably is.
Aladra! <3)

Jophiel said...

(Back!)

Dragona Pine said...

(Hey Silente! How are you?)


I dedicate this page to stuff. Because stuff is cool.)

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

(Tired. I just woke up.)
(also Mbd parent crying. Another thing to deal with. Yey.)

Jophiel said...

(*Cuddles Tetris*
Sorry...)

Dragona Pine said...

(I hope everything is fine, Silente.)

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

(He's left now. Gone for some thinking time. Something must've happened between dropping my sister off and coming home. He said he's wrong to me...hope he's alright....anyway. We're at a ball people! Let's act like it!)

Jophiel said...

(I'm designing my outfit. I think I've got it!)

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

(Okay!)

*sips on her glass of wine watching the dance floor*
*its rather empty at this point*
*she wants to dance*
*sighs*

Snow said...

(Just watched doctor who. OuO)

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

(Anyone got any Missy theories yet? I've heard many...)

Snow said...

(?? Missy theories...?)

Jophiel said...

(I reckon Missy is the Master.)

(Rose's outfit. Much better.)

Snow said...

(Hello Edward)

Edward Fletcher said...

She's leader of the nether world or nethersphere I think

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

(For doctor who. With the heaven scenes. I've heard so many theories of who Missy could be. Some people have been saying the heaven place is a lot like a tardis. Some have been saying it could be the master. Or river. Or Clara. Or the tardis itself. Do you have any theories?)

Dragona Pine said...

(I think she's a creepy woman who wants to kidnap everyone who dies.)

Snow said...

(Ooooh. We have the theory that she's the TARDIS, humanized)

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

(She said the doctor was her boyfriend..and that SHE would keep his accent, as if she controls his regenerations...)

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

(and the 'did you fall or did he push you' as well. She knew about that..
I agree with snow.)

Raven Astracae said...

Ah Doctor Who, I have fallen behind with the series, gave up on it when David Tennant left. I guess I didn't want to see an episode without him, but I watched a few Matt Smith ones, and now I'm just meh.....because I've missed so much Clara is a blur to me and meh....I'll watch it one day.

Edward Fletcher said...

The BBC confirmed shes the leader of the nether something and she would be the main series story arc is what I heard.

Snow said...

(I've been trying to think of other things but...)

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

(hey Raven!)

*sighs and just gives up and makes a holographic dance partner despite not being able to feel its hand on her back or in hers*
*starts a quick dance with it, not satisfied but taking what she can get*

Edward Fletcher said...

Damn, I have to go again, bye

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

(bye Ed!)

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: *has a drink of whisky*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Manuel: *walks over to Sophia, again*
Another whisky? How many is that now may I ask?

*sags and stops dancing, letting the hologram fade*

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: I've lost count.

Jophiel said...

*She muttered something softly under her breath, eyeing her shoes. They weren't the best. They were going to break... Eventually...

She plucked some form of food from a table, a glass of water, and sat down somewhere, watching*

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Manuel: drunk enough to take compliments yet commander?

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*walks from the dance floor and drops into a chair near Deathy*

Raven Astracae said...

*walks into the ballroom to see a few familiar faces*
*skips over to Sophia with more grace than before now that she has secured herself a pair of converse*
Hello.

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: Nope. Not by a long way. How are you?

Jophiel said...

*She smiled at Sil*

Hey.

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: Hello.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Manuel: I am well thank you. And yourself? Hello Raven. You seem happy.

Snow said...

(Sorry, theorizing)

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: I'm fine. Just normal.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Hello Rose. Oh do me a favour? If any of the asguardians ask who used their shower.. don't mention my name...

Raven Astracae said...

*turns to Manuel*
Hello. I'm usually happy. Coming to think of it I'm practically always happy.
*turns back so she can see both Sophia and Manuel*
Well I know how you are Manuel, but Sophia, how are you?

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Manuel: Very good. It's good that you're normal. Not as good as if you felt better than normal.

Jophiel said...

Jophiel said...

What? Why...? Actually, no. I'll stick with what. What did you do, Sil...?

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: I'm fine, thank you.
I guess so, Manuel.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

I needed a shower! Ed had puked on me! So I had a shower...I just don't know who's i used...so, you know, don't mention me...

Although whoever it was has nice shampoo...

Jophiel said...

*She chuckled and nudged her friend with her shoulder*

You're odd.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Manuel: *nods*

Raven Astracae said...

*somehow, )because. I don't know how function work) gets a glass of water in her hand*
Have you to ummmmm....enjoyed the ball?

Raven Astracae said...

Gosh, I can't type.

Sophia: Hardly. Did some interior decorating, nearly got killed and I have to wear a dress.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

I am...also I THINK I might've puked in their sink...I washed it...I think....probably...I had a bit too much last night....I don't even know who's room it was..
*laughs slightly*
It'll be fine.

Jophiel said...

Well, it wasn't Loki's room. Because if it was, you wouldn't be alive today. And even I haven't used his shower!!

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Manuel: The ball has been..pleasant. There have been its highlights.

Raven Astracae said...

*frowns*
Well nearly getting killed, that sucks. Interior decorating, that sound like too much hard work. And wearing a dress, well I'm with you on that one.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

I HOPE it wasn't Loki's room..ugh....what does his shampoo smell like?
*laughs at how weird a question that it*
Well whoever's room it was likes the smell of roses I'll tell you that.

Snow said...

(Arnold., you are odd. :) )

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

(Indeed I am Jason.)

Jophiel said...

*She frowned at Silente*

I'll smell his hair next time I see him, okay? He's sleeping right now. And if that was his room, I would be very concerned of why he smelt of my name...

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: Actually I was doing interior decorating whilst nearly being killed. It wasn't exactly on purpose. *points at the wall with cracks in it*
I would much rather be wearing my armour. I'm getting used to it, though, even if the back still annoys me.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Okay. Anyway how are you now? Feeling better?

Snow said...

(I think I'm kinda tired of roleplaying. I did it so much in summer that I filled up my quota for the year. Even the ball isa bit much for me. *sigh* I'll just stick to reading it and talking)

Jophiel said...

Yeah, feeling much better. Loki almost died from those damned Dark Elves, the which aren't going to be a race for much longer, and Leif can teleport, just like his father...

*She smiled at the ground, shaking her head slightly*

Damn kids are growing up too fast...

Raven Astracae said...

Oh okay, well nearly getting killed seems like a pretty sure fire way of dampening the mood.
*smiles*
Armour sounds fun...do you go adventuring in armour?

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

He can? That's early isn't it? Well done him. He has skills. No side effects from the...extreme disagreement with Sophia? You realise thats three times now I've brought you back.
*grins*

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: If you call keeping galactic peace and killing large machines that want to harvest organic life adventuring, sure.

Jophiel said...

I thought it was a little early too, but he can. It's amazing. Star had a heart attack when he teleported into her arms.

*She thought about her next words for a moment. She she spoke, her voice was different. It was lie*

No. Nothing. I feel perfect...

And no. You joined me in my eternal Hell hole. You didn't bring me back.

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Fine. Two times I've brought you back. And once I've been in your afterlife being burnt up. And also you realise your heart speeds up when you lie right? What's been wrong?

Raven Astracae said...

Hmmm.
*smiles*
You're very interesting you know that? All leave keeping yet fighting because you've determined one side good and the other bad...
But do you go like....forest adventuring? Something like walking in the woods to look for mushrooms, or climbing a mountain? Would you need armour to climb a mountain?

Jophiel said...

*She shook her head, her eyes darting around*

Nothing... I'm... Fine... Perfect.

Raven Astracae said...

*peace keeping

Dean said...

*He walked forward, wearing a well fitting tux with a single purple rose in his lapel. His eyes were searching for one person, and when he saw her, his knees weakened*

Rose!

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

I see.
*gets up, taking Roses hand and leading her away from the ball, into an empty room, and closing the door behind them*
What's wrong.

Dragona Pine said...

Sophia: Thank you. I believe there is a right and a wrong, but then there is what you want to do and what you have to do. Sometimes something could be considered wrong but it must happen.
I don't generally go exploring. But I'm nearly always wearing my armour, anyway.

Jophiel said...

*When she saw him by the doors, she let out a small groan and turned away, fully facing Sil*

The man with the purple rose. Don't. Look. At. Him.

*She growled as she was forced to pass Diablo*

Nothing is wrong, Sil. I'm fine.

Raven Astracae said...

You are very much welcome.

(One thing that is also very welcome is sleep, and after all that I have read today sleep is in order.

Goodnight.)

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Why shouldn't I look at purple rose dude?
And you aren't fine. Look no one else is here. Just tell me.
*leans against the closed door*
Speak. Use your words.

Dragona Pine said...

(Bye Raven!)
