Minions! Operatives! With just over two weeks to go, the countdown
to Theatre of Shadows has truly begun. There are only a few
tickets left, so if you want to take part in an ASTONISHING ADVENTURE THAT WILL
CHANGE THE WORLD* then please book now to secure a place in Dublin!
(*May not actually change the world.)
Today marks the launch of the Theatre of Shadows microsite:
here you'll find galleries, an archive of all the messages so far in the hunt
for Silas, and all the news to come. Just click the link ENTER THE DARKNESS from the main Theatre of Shadows page. We've built this specifically to include all the
American, Swedish and Norwegian Minions — who until this point have been unable
to register — in order to have a truly global experience. There'll be
heaps more to come, and for anybody not based in USA Sweden or Norway, don't
forget to register for the online Theatre of Shadows Mystery here.
The microsite password will be changed regularly so keep on here.
First one to get you started though is… RESCUE.
Wondering what on earth I'm talking about?
Theatre of Shadows is an immersive fan event like no other…
on Saturday 27th September, those lucky enough
to secure a ticket will be taken on an adventure inside the
world of the books. I'll be there, along with the incredible LARP (Live Action
Role Playing) specialists who have helped produce this madness. There'll
be role-playing, problem solving and an amazing quest to tackle. The
event is tailor-made by yours truly and I'll be writing a brand new short story, inspired and informed
by YOUR participation, on the day! Which means the brave actions of ALL the
Operatives – Live and Remote - stand a chance of entering officially into the
Skulduggery history books.
Once you've registered and are heading into battle: remember to
leave a REFLECTION behind to keep friends and relatives quiet. Our shiny new Reflections Hall of Fame app is now live on Facebook. I want to see your preppiest, most saccharine
outfits and expressions people! Remember — you Reflections are the goody-goody
two-shoes version of you, so smile, be happy, and be the "perfect"
version of you that you can be! If you'd like to share these as your profile
pictures then all the better. Mention #TheatreofShadows so that other
Operatives will know you're in on the secret.

*She grinned at Sil and chased after her. She couldn't catch her, but she came close enough to grab the back of her shirt and tug backwards, pulling her to the floor*
Got ya... Just...
(I'm not making a movie.
And I AM NOT A STEREOTYPE!! NON CONFORMIST FTW!!!)
*grins*
I'll tell ya one thing, you're fast.
*gets up and dusts herself off*
Anything else you're uncertain about?
Strength...? But I'm not willing to hit you...
("In a world, where the line between good and evil are blurred; one woman will stand against those who cause people to live in fear. Not for money. Not for fame. But for *pause* survival. Her name? Rose. Death Rose.")
(I hate you.)
(Death Rose the movie.)
Really? That's new. Most people will happily punch me. How about an arm wrestle then?
(Dammit.
I dedicate this page to Death Rose: The Movie. Highly anticipated blockbuster of 2017.)
(Keating...)
Arm wrestle...? Sure!
(Shower time...)
(Hmm..
So if Death got a movie it'd be an action hero type film...
What about Sophia? Maybe a romance? XD Jk.)
("Critics say: "Brilliant. Five stars." - Daily Mail.
"A true superhero epic." - Sunday Times.")
@Sophia: *laughs* XD XD XD
*thumbs up XD*
@Death: Everyone conforms to society. *shrugs*
(Sophia Keating - The Musical!)
@Silente: *laughs* XD
(Hey, Silente, want a job?
"A Sophia Keating production.
Starring:
Silente Tempest as Death Rose.
Cuddles the Monkey as Loki Laufeyson.")
@Sophia: *laughs* XD XD
(I can sing for you as I rip you apart if you wish, Silente.)
(XD Cuddles the monkey as Loki XD)
(@Soph Sure hun! *grins*)
I am not a monkey, you mewling quims.
(You'd better watch it or I'll make you do your own stunts. And a special make out scene with Cuddles the Monkey/Loki.)
@Loki: Sure, you carry on thinking that. :P
(Hey cuddles! XD)
I am leaving, goodbye.
...
I was looking through the comments and I thought something said purple carrots and it actually said paper cranes.
Blogger, this is what you hsve made me.
@Sophia: XD XD
(My own stunts I can do...I'd rather not have to make out with a monkey.)
Fours, Cuddles! :(
Hey Snow. :) :)
(Keep telling yourself that, Loki. Seriously, the monkey was fantastic during casting. He could replicate your voice perfectly. We had to give him a Sceptre made of bananas... Such a diva. You're like twins!)
(Goodbye Cuddles.)
Hey Starrrrrrrrrr *huggles*
*laughs* XD XD XD
@Snow: :) :) :) *hugs*
Hey, Bubble... did you like your present?
(XD oh god. Bye Cuddles! XD)
Also, I have been reading for the last... 2 hours...
My eyes hurt
@Snow: I did. :) :) *hugs* Thank you. :) :) :)
*commented on it, I believe*
And - :O
Commented? *flies away quickly to check* so you did *huggles*
I had a lot kf trouble getting that tweet from Derek, I hope you know
...
Actually, I didn't. I just asked.
But that's not the point.
*realizes I accidentally replied to the comment too*
*facepalms*
@Snow: :) :)
Thank you. It's great. *hugs*
Loki...
*nods*
*hopes bubble realizes how truly AWESOME she is*
(That isn't his name, Rose.)
*nodes and hopes Snow realises how much MORE AWESOME she is :) :) :) :)*
@Sophia: XD XD
*would like to point out that it is literally impossible to be more awesome than a warrior bubble*
It's Loki Laufeyson. That is his name. He is not Cuddles. He is not a monkey. He is my little Loki.
(I disagree, Rose. Well, apart from the little part.
You have to respect the effort we put into the movie: you of all people would know how hard it is to fit and remove armour from a monkey.)
Don't make the movie, then. Movies are too mainstream.
And Loki is not being replaced with a monkey. Because I will kill someone. Loki is Loki and can never be replaced.
Ever.
*would like to point out that whilst that is true, Snow is further up her species' average of awesomeness than me*
@Sophia: XD XD
@Death: You don't like us hating on Loki, do you?
Well, I don't like you hating on Alastair, and it upsets Adra when people hate on Alastair (not that she's here so how she feels about it isn't directly relevant, I'm just saying) so I believe we're even.
(We can make a movie and make a documentary about the making of the movie.
Trust me, the casting choice was very difficult. It was either Cuddles or Jeff the Gorilla. Cuddles just had more passion in his acting.)
*huggles Rose* he is Loki-Doki to me, okay?
*huggles star* can we just agree to disagree about who is awesome-er?
But Alastair is evil. Loki isn't...
*Huggles Snow back*
I love you, Snowball... And can you please hit Sophia for me...?
@Snow: . . . Okay. :) :)
Snowball. :) That's a great name. :)
@Death: See, I don't think Alastair's evil. I don't think Loki's evil either, I just think Loki's very sad and that Alastair is a lot more awesome. But if we keep on insulting Alastair/Loki, we're just going to keep on upsetting each other, so we should probably do what me and Snow are doing and agree to shut up about it, whether we agree or not. :)
Agreed. Stop with the whole Cuddles/Loki thing, because only I get Loki cuddles... And I'll stop mentioning Alice.
Do we have a deal?
@Death: Yes. Deal. :)
Done.
*sits down*
*takes a deep breath*
Home
(sorry...trying to think what to do for my hwk....)
Okay then.
*leads death to a flat tree stump and kneels on one side*
*sets her right elbow on the table*
Rose- I only left due to Zafira having to serve the early mass, I will be back around....9am my time, love.
*She knelt on the other side of the tree stump and took Sil's hand*
Okay. After one. Three....two....
Do try and break her arm, Rose.
Alright Loki! Don't pester your author too much... I should be on, unless I fell asleep or the wifi is switched off by my parents...
Oh, you're no fun Loki.
*She grinned at Sil*
One.
*She pushed Sil's arm to the side, smirking as it started to give way*
Come on, I'm not even trying!
I just looked to see what the last thing I copied was (in my copy and paste) and it's this:
Right-left-diagonal-up-down-backwards-forwards-curvy-cirvular-straight-multiple directions-invisible directions-nonexistent directions-indecipherable directions
*grins and allows her arm to dip further towards the tree stumps surface*
*pauses her hand there*
*pushes back against Rose's hand*
(Okay guys for art I have to make a collage about 'me.' And I dont have a clue what i could put on it Help?)
*She smirked and pushed against Sil's hand again with a little more strength. She wasn't even close to using everything she had*
(I wouldn't have a clue...)
I shall try, I made her go on her phone to say this. Perhaps I ought...no. If I vanish she kicked me off.
(What do you like? Your oc's? Blogland? Put things on it that you love, even if its the blogger icon thing.)
(@Rose will she be stronger than Sil or not?)
*grins and pushes back, not losing any ground but not yet gaining any*
Perhaps you ought to what...?
(A dwarf is always an option, Silente.)
(I think so... Loki, who would be stronger, Sil or me?)
*She laughed softly and let her hand rest there*
(Well see that's the problem all I can think to put on is the blogger icon....)
(Favorite bands, colours, items. Make it as you as possible)
(Shut up Sophia.)
*applies more force, not all of her strenght, not yet*
@Snow: XD XD
*hugs* :) :)
@Silente: What they're saying. Blogger icons, favourite books, favourite music, favourite TV. *shrugs* Even our profile pictures if you're really stuck. :)
(Well, put down images of obscure blogger references, Arnold. Be odd. Because you are)
*She applied a little more pressure so their hands stayed even*
(That's problem two. No printer. No pictures except for doodles, things I paint and, if I buy some, magazine cut outs...)
(Maybe something like this, Silente, if you truly wanted it to represent you:
https://static-secure.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Guardian/Pix/pictures/2014/7/2/1404313430397/Asda-advert-008.jpg
)
*laughs slightly*
We don't seem to be getting anywhere...
(Er...what do we do if Loki doesn't tell us who'd stronger?)
(Trace things? Write words? Be creative about it. )
We aren't, are we?
*She chuckled and applied more strength, moving their hands*
(*glares at Sophia* enough small jokes.)
@Silente: :O
how do you LIVE without a printer?????
Does your school have printers you can use? Email it to yourself and print it out there?
(I would make larger jokes but I fear they would overwhelm you.)
Don't post offices have printers you can use?
Sophia. XD XD
(Actually, thats a great idea: put something so odd people will just think you're insane. It wouldn't be far from the truth)
*also applies more pressure, evening them out again*
*yawns*
*grins and applies all her strength suddenly*
@Snow: XD XD XD
(@Star :D)
(*glares at Sophia* Shut. Up.)
(its Sunday star, post offices are closed.)
*She cursed in fright and pushed back against Sil's hand. Slowly, she started to gain ground again*
@Sil: Oh yeah . . . :/ :/
Can you borrow a printer off a friend?
(Whatever you end up doing, you have to include "glue" in the project. And "Arnold". *nods*)
(I need sleep. Night all* hugs everyone*)
*frowns, confusion flickering across her face*
*she isn't used to being weaker*
*pushes back as hard as she can, arm tense*
(Goodbye, Snow.)
(Involve glue and Arnold...okay. Anyone else got anything I gotta include?)
(I've already said.)
(@Sophia i forgot what you said.)
@Silente: *points to the scroll button*
*She pushed back, and still, her arm moved Sil's back*
(You could have this for Arnold:
https://trainelite.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/asib.jpeg
)
*wants to use her sigils but resists the urge*
*struggles against Death, trying to keep her arm away from the tree stump*
*She gave Sil a quick grin, then used all the strength she could muster, slamming the back of her friend's hand into the stump, leaving quite an impressive dent in her wake*
(XD @Soph if only I had a printer!)
(Save the image and print it elsewhere.)
*releases Deaths hand and glares at her own*
*mutters under her breath about her hand being a traitor*
*She traced the imprint of Sil's hand in the stump with her fingertips, her eyes wide*
Sil... I'm sorry... But... Look... I... I did that...
Yeah I know I felt it.
*shakes her hand and tries to wiggle her fingers*
*glares when it becomes apparent they aren't moving*
*flips her hand over and runs a finger along the bones there, wincing when she realises they're broken*
Got any bandages?
(Parents are discussing me in the living room.
I'm apparently a horrible daughter who does nothing for others and is very unreliable and cannot be trusted. At all.
Well, thank you mum and dad.
Because that right there, is why I have 32 pulls beside my bed.)
I... I broke your hand?!
*She pulled off her backpack and sifted through the contents. She pulled out some leaves and then two bandages.
And then her phone*
I'm sorry... But, can I? So I can show Loki...? Please...?
*42 pills
(If you are reliant on the opinions of others, Rose, then you would be offended. But there is no need for that - reject their opinions, and become independent. What they think of you does not matter.)
*sighs*
Fine. But you've got to help me wrap my hand. It's hard to do with only one hand..
(It's my parents.
They influence everything.)
*She took a photo, and then one of the stump*
Thank you!!
*She grinned and started to wrap Sil's hand with skill. She applied both and then handed the leaves over*
For the pain.
*hugs Death*
You know you're awesome, yes . . . ?
Guys...
I know this seems stupid and overrated and I'm probably making a huge deal out of it, but-
There's this guy in my class.
Oh lord, you're probably thinking. Here she goes.
And yep, here I go.
I think he likes me.
BUT
I don't really like him. As a friend, sure, but nothing more than that.
Oh lord, you're thinking. Why the eff am I still reading this stupid, idiotic thing.
I agree with you, it's stupid.
I'm stressing over how to break it to him, because honestly, I don't want to hurt anybody's feelings.
I am a fricking Care Bear. Don't judge.
Honestly, though, does anybody have any tips? :S
*waves the leaves away*
It'll be fjne.
*looks at the dint*
So...that answered that question. Any others?
I have to go.
Don't know why.
Don't know when I'll be back, but by the sounds of my parents...
Not for a while.
Possibly ever.
I'm sorry.
I love you all... And if things I do end it, you won't know. Which will make me feel a little better... Because you'll keep living knowing that I'm probably alive.
Bye...
(No, Rose, their opinions of you do not change who you are - so should not change the way you feel.)
Rose:
You are awesome, okay? It might be a misjudgement on your parents' part, and if it is, clear it up with them. Or you could just, I dunno, help out around the house or something?
Basically, show them that you can be trusted.
(this advice probably sucks)
@Fay: D:
Really wish I could help, but sorry, I haev no tips . . .
Rose . . . :( :(
No, we'll live living in neverending worry, but . . .
*hugs*
Just - please know that you're awesome.
(How is everyone?)
(Hoping Death's okay?)
(Yes.)
(Apart from that?)
Hello, everyone!
I have tried to avoid the blog for some time now because of spoilers, but now that I've got the book, I should be done with it in a matter of days (I'm going to cry when it's over) so see you guys soon! :)
And you're all sticking around, right?
Rose...?
:(
Star said what I wanted to say, so:
@Star: Ditto.
Also thanks for trying to help but compared to what just happened, well-
*poofs*
(Hello, Tia.)
@Sophia: Good?
You?
@Tia: You did well. -_- More spoilers on here than there usually are.
*hasn't got it yet*
Hi! :)
@Fay: :/ :/
*hugs*
(I am average.)
(Average is better than less than average.)
(But not as good as above average.)
(No, but it's better than nothing.)
(Anything is better than nothing by default.)
(Exactly.)
(Poor nothing.)
(You can't feel sorry for nothing - it doesn't exist. Unless that, in itself, is a reason to feel sorry for it.)
@Sophia: EXACTLY.
(Then we should feel sorry for nothing.)
(And I do. :))
Hey Star and Sophia!
Well I'm reading through it now and if anything, the first chapter piqued my interest.
(I believe people have a problem with spoilers, Tia.)
Rose. Death Rose. There are people who are there for you, you know that, right?
Take care of yourself, Rose!
Yeah, spoiler Udina is a traitor whoopsies
@Sophia: The first chapter is fine. :) But yeah. I have issues with spoilers. XD Thank you. :)
(*tilts head* I know Udina is a traitor. I was there.)
I still can't believe Black Edition sold out so fast I couldn't get a copy.
Hang on. Gtg. D:
(So who got their ass kicked by Kai Leng in your playthrough?)
(Spoilers everybody!)
See you around, Star!
(Okay. I have literally no pictures. This should be...interesting at the very least...)
(*sighs* You misunderstand. I am Dragona Pine's character - not him. I literally mean I was there.)
Hey, Silente!
And Black Edition is on ebay at around £150-180 just why?
msd
Hey, Silente!
And Black Edition is on ebay at around £150-180 just why?

(Hey Tia! It's been an age. I don't think I've seen you since you tried to seduce Sil XD
(Hello, Silente.)
(Hey Sophia.)
(I as in author or I as in characters?)
(Author.)
(confused panicked and starting to get a headache.)
(Why?)
(You might have to specify which part you're saying why too.)
(All parts.)
(Fair enough)
(Confused - Private. I won't be sharing that even if I do figure it out. At least not right away..
Panicked - Can't think what to do for homework. Also the same reason as confused.
Headache - Possibly dehydration. Or not eating. Or just that my brain hates me.)
I... I was trying to seduce someone?
Did it work?
(Awkward elevator moment is coming back to me)
(@Tia we never finished that date...
how are you?)
(It would be sensible to eat and drink, Silente.)
Will this community stick together now that Skulduggery Pleasant is over? Where will we congregate?
I don't know if it worked. You left before anything much happened...
(I presume it will, Tia.)
(I'll eat and drink when homeworks done. And possibly had a think..)
(@Tia we will stay here.)
Silente... I... I am ok, well I am upset about my AS grades (though I am staying on for full A Level course) but otherwise I am *lost*
Very lost.
So, how are you? (How will you overcome your confusion?)
(So, what's new in Blogland? Any important news?)
Sophia, I mean what will we do if posts get filled to 5,000 comments and Derek doesn't give us another post?
Lost and upset...not the best emotions to have. I hope you do well when your A levels come around..
Aww, Silente, I wish the best to you as well!
(Are you doing school/exams?)
(I don't think so. Not until next year.)
Yeah.You over that 'thing' you had for me now.
*grins*
(Then someone could make a blog. Simple.)
(Advert: imagine your skin without flaws and pores
Me: but then its not my skin.)
(Silente, are you watching channel 4?)
(Watching no. Is the tv on channel four while i attempt to do work yes.)
(So is Dragona... Are these programmes supposed to be funny?)
(Apparently.)
(*sighs* So boring.)
(Yeah. Does Draggie like the simpsons then?)
(Not especially. I just find it boring.)
(I used to like it.)
(You know I quite like being home alone..)
(Why is that?)
(I don't know, Silente. What happened before, I just went ahead with my impulsive feelings)
(So what do you guys love doing when you have spare time?)
(Its calm. And quiet. And I can think..
Also no one pressure me on eating and drinking and stuff.)
(I do not like having spare time.)
(Spare time? That exists? XD Reading writing and blogging and homework.)
(Impulsive feelings?)
