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.

«Oldest ‹Older 3201 – 3400 of 4692 Newer› Newest»Why thank you
L: Now hurry up and save us
I should have known. Lament. Felix the demon, why not Felix the bunny? *Turns to inky* Should I save Lament?
(*Cuddles Em*
I'm sorry, Em... Maybe it's just a stage he's going through. You definitely the mother he deserves, believe me. You can't be as bad as my parents, but quite frankly, mine don't give a shit about me.
You care for your son, which already makes you a better mother than my own.)
Uhm, nice knives you've got there, Sil...
And this, Silente, is what you get for behaving like a child.
Good, I find that a pretty picture.
*hugs Em* you care, that's about all that matters.
And frankly, *hugs Rose*
*blushes redder*
On god...er....thanks....
*smiles* only if he promises not to bother you again
And felix is alright, just an idiot
Felix : hey!
If you continue to resist, I will rip your knives apart. It is as simple as that.
But...? Loki... I broke a vampire's arm... That isn't normal...
(*hugs Tia back*)
I dedicate this page to my wedding.
Very well *Takes sword and cuts through chains* *Lament vanishes* Shall we? *Portal opens*
It is if you are Asgardian.
(I need to roleplay, sorry guys.)
*Roland woke the next day, with Rose's side of the bed empty. He felt like he had gotten no sleep at all from the amount of crying he did last night.
He could hear Ariana gurgling in her room. He wasn't sure how she got back but she was back in the house safe and sound.
He got up and knocked on Lorcan and Casha's room door. He wanted to apologise to them. He walked in and looked around the room. Everything was gone, they were gone.
What was he going to do? Lorcan and Casha left their child. He had a feeling this would occur but he wasn't prepared for it. He couldn't look after her by himself.
Would he have to give the child into care and leave himself? Could he be what Ariana needed in her life?*
You do anything to my knives and I'll rip your face apart.
Thank you *goes through portal*
*felix follows*
(I love reading the Lorcan/Rose role plays! :))
*points at the scar on her cheek* Too late, someone already got in before you. I think, however, your hands would be elsewhere.
*Grabs Felix before he steps through portal* You will protect her when I am not here, ok?
((I do now because Lorcan's an ass and Alexis agrees. I really want to have her say something to him.-Zaf
*glares at Sophia*
Just put me down.
Felix: she peaks my interest
Okay
So.. a wedding, huh?
*toasts*
Sophia, you do realise that those knives are all she has... Silente, please put some clothes on and I'll give you a knife to add to your ccollection.
Rose, is this the right time to tell you how insecure and potentially awkward I am?
*walks over to the lake and stops when she sees Silente and Sophia*
Um...
Hi....
*Voice has an edge of anger* She peaks your what?
*looks at Dug*
Oh god not.more people...
I understood, Tia. Which is why I threatened her with ripping them apart.
Hello, Dugglyn.
Felix:*raises an eyebrow* interest.
Ed? What is it?
*looks apologetic*
Soy sauce...
And I might just go....
*doesn't leave yet*
Sophia put me down now so i can bloody GET DECENT!
*Pushes Felix through portal* You go on Inky, I wish to have a word with your "friend"
Hey Sophia. Sorry for... interrupting.
*drops Silente*
Okay I feel I should point out I don't know what this looks like, but its not that. Believe me.
Okay
*goes through portal*
Felix: what's your problem?
*grabs her clothes and runs*
Now then *Sits down and pushes him into a chair* And how do you mean she peaks your interest?
*sighs* *suspends Silente in the air, walking towards her* As I said before - do not try and run away.
(From behind a tree) I know what it looks like, can you get changed now or do you need a towel?
I have no idea what you think this looks like.
I was going to get DRESSED.
(Sorry, morning routine.)
()
*She was in a tree, a good distance from the house, listening to the little speakers in her jacket. Roland's crying has spurred her own tears, so they cried together despite being so far apart.
She looked through the trees, thinking that she could just make out the house. That was it, right?*
Roland... I'm sorry... I... I want to go back... I'll be with you for forever... Don't worry, I just... You won't see me...
Felix : don't get in a tis
I ain't tryin to steal her away, if that's what you think
I was just curious, she's a werewolf right? Why are her ears and tail visible? Why was she paralysed with fear when we got to the lab?
You don't need to run away to get dressed, Silente.
Im not getting dressed in front of you Sophia.
I know I'm Asgardian, Loki. But I'm still... I'm still kinda human too... That isn't natural...
*She spread her arms wide and looked at him with pleading eyes*
Cuddle...?
You already got undressed - I don't see the distinction.
Well *Calms down a bit* You do not need to know any of that unless she tells you.
*runs up to Silente and wraps her in a towel*
I've fixed it!
felix : that bad huh?
*waits patiently for the others*
Of course. *walks over and hugs her tightly, leading into a cuddle*
*whispers angrily*
Yeah well to get undressed i dont have to remove the knives. I do to get dressed. Put me down and let me get dressed.
*is sitting in someone's cupboard, listening.*
*He can't believe he's never realised the utility of cupboards before*
*Leans forward in chair* Do you know what I am capable of?
(Heya Trip^^)
(Hello Trip)
*She cuddled him back before she snuggled into his chest*
I love my Loki... Can I be greedy and ask for a kiss...?
*sighs* *grabs Silente's arm, and jabs her with a needle, injecting a tracking device into her bone* You will not run. You will go behind a tree. You will not use a portal. Clear?
Hey, Trip!
Felix: don't wanna know
Ow!
*looks at her arm*
*-ha. As if that'll stop me.-*
Fine let me get dressed.
Well, you will protect Inky when I am not around or you will know first hand what I can do. Anything more than protection and I will find you.
*laughs, kissing her gently*
(What;s going on, folks?)
*lets Silente drop*
Felix: *mocks salute* yes sir
What's taking them?
(I will be back soon, I think.)
(Kay Soph)
Very well. Remember, nothing more than protection *Steps through portal*
*She kissed him back softly before she sighed happily, nuzzling his chest*
You're perfect, my love... Absolutley perfect...
*He went into Ariana's room, giving Marrok a pat on the head. He picked her up, kissing her face as he got her dressed.
He then brought them both downstairs, he sat Ariana down on the floor as Marrok sat beside her. He went to make breakfast.
When he came back in, he started feeding Ariana some soft ceral as he talked to her.*
Roland: Little one, it is just you, me and Marrok from now on. I am afraid to say that your mother and father have decided to leave us.
But I promise you little one, until my dying breath, I will never leave you.
*Ariana swallowed the bit she had in her mouth as she crawled and cuddled in closely to Roland, silently letting some tears fall.*
Felix: okay I get it *follows*
*smiles* there you are, have a nice chat?
*hits the floor*
*grabs her clothes and runs into the trees*
*quickly pulls them on and grabs the towel*
*wraps it around her arm, above where the needle was, wrapping it tight*
*pulls out one of her more saw like knives*
*Smiles* Yeah, Felix wanted a word
Silente, there is another way.
Okay *smiles* do you want a drink?
Felix : *remains silent*
*Rams his knee into the side of Loki's head before disappearing once more into the horizon, cackling like a maniac all the way*
Sure. *Glares at Felix*
(Heya Blake)
I know I am.
*looks at Tia*
What? How?
(Hi blake)
*steps out of the peculiar cupboard that was just standing in the woods a hundred feet away, shouts*
Don't do it Silente! It isn't worth it! Losing limbs is for life and death situations!
Felix : *flinches* yes well Ill be off now
Oh, you can come to Felix
*to Ed* let's go and get drunk
(Ed, if you're in my gaddamn bar...)
()
-your mother and father have decided to leave us.
*The words kept playin through her mind and something in her chest tightened. This wasn't the man Judhipor had sacrificed herself for. Casha wasn't a woman deserving of her respect anymore*
They... No... They left...
*She couldn't let Roland take care of Ariana by herself. She didn't care, anymore. She would find Lorcan and Casha and demand to know what was happening. Perhaps when Ariana was a little older, but first-
She jumped off the branch and trudged her way to the front door. She knocked twice and hung her head*
Yes, come on Felix. *To Inky* Yes, let's get drunk *All three appear in bar*
(I am now trip)
*She cursed at Blake before she looked over Loki, her eyes wide*
Are you alright?!
*orders everyone a drink * here you go guys!
Felix: thanks *takes a sip*
*drinks rapidly*
*hiccups*
(suddenly, Ed is picked up by an invisible force and thrown from the door. He's still barred.)
*Drinks bottle*
(Haha Trip ^^)
(Aw, come on trip)
*mutters to himself*
Dammit Ed.
I am. To be honest, I am glad the idiot fell for my trickery. People cannot sneak up on me, I am perfectly fine.
Hey, soy sauce for the Poof!
*is in her tree house when she hears a noise in her cupboard*
*frowns, then shakes her head, ignoring it*
*reaches out for Silente's hand*
*A darkness engulfs Silente, turning her to dust that flows through the air around Tia*
Whoops!
*reaches out hand to her right, dust starts forming from the tips of her fingers to first make a hand, then body, of Silente Tempest*
And that's you, an hour ago, with your mind intact. You're welcome!
(Hey, It's my bar. It's a commercial establishment, not a free refreshment stall. It's why you got barred in the first place.)
Don't worry Trip, I'll make sure Ed *hiccups* behaves
I'll punish him otherwise
*looks at Trip*
This is life or death. If Sophia keeps following me I WILL shoot myself.
(I will pay, I promise)
Thank you...
*She grinned again and bit her lip*
You know how much I love you and everything...?
P...punish me h...how?
(That means Loki's glad I didn't hit him which is proof he can't take a hit.
Checkmate.)
*blinks*
*checks her knoves are still there*
*smiles and hugs Tia*
Thanks.
*floats over to where ever everyone is*
*solidifies*
You don't mean it, Silente! I'm sure Sophia will receive another assignment soon, some glorious charge against Cerberus where a ton of people die.
*smiles* I it's a surrrrprise!
Felix: *continues drinking*
(I will kill you, Blake.)
((Actually he could care lesd about you and realizes you're a coward.))
I know, I love you too.
*Roland kissed Ariana's head as he sat her back on her blanket, letting her try and feed herself.
He wiped his eyes and made sure he looked presentable as he made his way to the door.
He opened up, took one look at Rose and began crying again. He stepped forward and wrapped his arms around her tightly.*
Roland: You came back... I am so glad you came back... you are back...
(That's at least the sixth time you've said that.)
*Grins* I do l...like a s...surprise.
Really...?! *giggles* what sorta surprises?
((Wait wait wait. Did you just call Blake a coward while we're talking about Loki? I really am sorry but I'm going to have to straight up call that idiotic.))
Well, Loki... Might I get a piggyback...?
*She beamed at him*
W...whatever surprises y...you can think o...of.
Run, Silente runnnnnnn! You're freeeee!!!!!
(Still barred. Every time you enter, you'll just get chucked out. It's about more than just paying, it's about respecting property.)
*he begins to run to Silente* Seriously, cutting your own arm off isn't the way to do it! I can help!
*blushes* m my mind has ss gone.... Blank !anny I ideas?
*Giggles* P...plenty
Ohhh like what? *flutters eyelids*
()
*When she saw his tears, her own were quickly to follow. She collapsed against his chest, clutching his shirt and sobbing into his shoulder*
I'm sorry... I'm sorry... Roland... I... They... I'm so... Sorry...
*She nuzzled his chest. She didn't know how cold she was until she was pressed against him. She had spend the night outside in the freezing cold. She shivered against him, trying to absorb his warmth*
*Grins and they appear in cottage*
*walks up to Trip and Silente*
*taps Trip's shoulder then turns into mist and floats above them*
*Waves trip away*
That's fine. Tia fixed it. And imma go now. No way in hell am I lettinf Soph find me again.
*hugs trip*
*kisses Tia on the cheek*
Bye.
*runs off as a blur*
(Back in 10)
*looks up*
Yes, Dugglyn?
Felix: *still in bar*
*giggles* what are. Y you thinking, eddy ?
(Kay)
*Roland held her tightly, feeling how cold she was.*
Roland: You have absolutely nothing to apologise for my love. Come in, quickly. We will warm you up and get you some food.
*Roland lead her into the front room. Marrok yapped excitedly as he started running around Rose's feet. Ariana looked behind her and smiled.*
Well, I'm glad that worked out. *sits on a conveniently placed chair and turns to Tia*
So, how've you been?
(Hey El ^^)
*floats down and solidifies, a innocent expression on her face*
What?
*is frozen as she sees Sil run away*
Herrow Elleni!
Felix : *sits alone*
((Wbd for an hour or so))
(*Pounces on Ellie's head*
Nyaa~ :D)
(I am back.)
What do you want? Surely you tapped my shoulder for a reason?
((Hi Elleni!))
*dives through a portal and is gone, minus the tracker*
*it snaps shut behind her before even the assassin would've been able to join her*
(Oh, come on. I'd have at least thought you would have paused it - considering I would have been stood right there.)
()
*She shook her head an tried to not trip over Marrok*
I... I have everything to apologise for...
*She stopped and got on her tiptoes to kiss away his tears*
They're my fault...
Me? Tap your shoulder?
I have no idea what your talking about!
God day to you!
*turns into mist and floats over to Elleni*
*solidifies*
Purple!!!!!!!!
And purple Blake!!!!!
*Drops to the ground as Ellie poofs. He sits there for a few seconds, eyes growing large and filling up with tears, before curling into a little ball. As he shudders from the cold, Blakey tries not to cry*
*mumbles, getting up*
God day. *folds up the chair and walks towards his bar, there is someone there who needs kicking out*
(sorry Soph.)
Felix: *finishes drink*
(*sighs*)
(erm...if it helps we can say the assassin got through and can therefore contact you?)
(Back)
(Welcomes Ed ^^)
Oh bye El!!
*cuddles Blakey Kitty, rubbing his ears*
Don't worry, she'll be back!
(Blakey kitty...)
(That would help with the Silente problem - not with where I would currently be, however.)
Hey, I'm always happy to mess up Sophia's plans, Sil! (And we will see each other soon, hopefully!)
*Nuzzles against Dug, his bottom lip still trembling*
W...well I was thinking *picks her up*
wb Ed.
*steps into the bar, aiming a gun at |Felix. He hates guns, and is very bad with them, but he can't deny that they give you a very strong presence*
I don't care who you are, leave.
*huggles and pulls out a cat treat from her pocket*
Wanna treat?
*giggles* thinking what Ed?
*His face brightens and his ears perk up as he reaches for the treat, tail swishing back and forth quickly*
Felix: going man *leaves*
*kisses*
(Okay. Where would you currently be...lets say you decided NOT to perv on Sil and are wondering what the hell is taking her so long?)
*tia gets a text*
¦Thanks. Owe you one. -ST¦
*kisses back, hotly*
*She darted in and took Blakey Kitty, snuggling him*
*lays her on the bed*
*gasps and lets out a whimper and Blakey Kitty is taken*
Blakey...D:
*whispers* I love you
*runs fingers through his hair*
(I do not "perv" on anyone.
I believe I will stop the RP there and start again tomorrow.)
And I love you
*Frowns a bit as the treat gets further and further away, but snuggles against Rose anyways*
(..can i keep rping Sil so long as she doesn't do anything stupid?)
*smiles*
*takes off his. Top*
(Sil, you don't need someone else's permission to RP your character.)
(Would have been pretty pervy, dude. Although, Trip did basically do that, so what do I know?)
*locks the door behind Felix and heads upstairs. He may not sleep much anyway, but fatherhood is really beginning to take its toll, even simple adventures are tiring. He feels like he's getting old*
*removes her dress*
(Although your point is what I would have said, Blake, I am capable of speaking for myself.)
*She nuzzled Blakey and stopped. She put him on the floor and ran away because she has to go to school now, but she will be back*
Hmmm
So this is your preferred punishment?
I suppose it is my preferred punishment.
(Oh right yeah okay then.)
(Oh right yeah okay then.)
Another is allowed.
(Knowing you, Dragona, I wasn't sure.)
*Watches Rose run off, wondering why everyone's leaving him*
*Trots back over to Dug and paws at her leg, mewing for a treat*
*smiles*
*plants kisses on his jawline*
Felix: *spots Blakey kitty * are you some sort of neko?
(I am not Dragona. Can't you read? Have a look at my bloody profile.)
*lies down* so, how will you punish me?
*blushes* well I I I ...
You?
(Huh?)
*giggles* um well... You are naughty!
(Huh. Sil appears to be in a 'playful' mood...this is weird...)
I suppose, but I should not still be barred from trips bar
*bends over and gives Blakey the treat*
*strokes his back*
*looks up at Flexy*
Yes. He is!
