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.

*He takes off, hovering a few feet above her head and holds out his right hand. A circle appears at his finger tips and he draws out a large ornate sword. Holding it with both hands Blake slashes multiple times, each swing whipping up a gust of wind and sending a wave of energy at her*
*felix leads them to te circle
Felix: if you step in that circle, lament will get his way
What?
((Because I am a messed up person))
(I am fine Tia)
You little traitor. *Jumps at Felix*
(Yes Tia, we do. Go ahead! I love reading blood and violence...)
*rolls out of the way of the energy and the wind, shooting at him with her pistol* *lifts him into the air with her biotics, then slams him into the ground*
()
*She smiled at his hug, the feeling of safety returning in his arms. When his lips met hers, her face deepened in colour. Her hands reached up to hold his neck and feel his shoulders. She eventually found herself onto his lap, facing him. She had to turn her face away slightly to breathe*
I love you, Roland...
*felix steps out if the way* wait up, I helped you didn't i?
Ed! Please stop!
*whacks Rose*-Zaf
Hmm...I am over six foot.
*Roland chuckled as he found himself suddenly sitting back with Rose on his lap.*
Roland: I love you too Ms.Rose. Very much so.
I am glad that Ariana has us. And I am very glad that I have you.
(<3 u Zaf!!)
And I am 5 foot something...
*She lifted her arms, grinning*
Pick me up...? Then it'll be easier to kiss... But then again, it would be even easier if we were laying down...
*Lands in circle* I should have left you in nyes lab. Red walls appear round circle and lament appears*
L: Good demon. Now, I will leave Inky for you
Ed! *screams*
Felix: *stares horrified* I didn't mean it...
@Tia: You're kidding yes? We read SKULDUGGERY PLEASANT. XD
(Most of you do, Star.)
L: *Presses button and Ed screams in pain* Let's see how you like the feel of hell. I couldn't have done it without you Felix
()
*She smiled at Roland softly, leaning forward to rest her head on his chest, listening to his heart beat*
I... I don't know how I survived without you, Roland... And I'm so happy Ariana has us... I'm so happy we're all here...
*She smiled wider, tilting her head up so she could kiss under his jaw*
*The bullets connect and Blake winces, quickly being healed by a light radiance around his body. After slamming into the ground he looks up and sighs, disappearing a moment afterward*
*Taps her on the shoulder and positions his sword across her throat*
Hi there. Gonna play nice now?
@Sophia: All the authors have, I imagine, and therefore all the characters have had the experience/memories of reading it due to the fact they're in their author's heads.
*growls* leave him alone! *changes into semi wolf form*
Felix: calm, inks *pulls out kurikara*
*goes for Lament*
*Roland let out a sigh as she started kissing under his jaw.
Marrok had already left the couch and curled up in front of the fireplace, taking in the heat.*
L: *Disappears and reappears the other side of the circle* Felix, you were the one who made this possible. You can have Inky
*sighs, and freezes Blake with stasis* Not a chance. *slips out from his grip*
Now will you stop fighting or do I have to freeze you again and place a grenade at your feet?
*they find themselves in Loki's room, laying on his bed*
*surfaces from the lake and grabs Laments ankle tightly*
()
*She looked up at Roland, taking his face in both of her hands and searched his eyes for a moment. She grinned after a time and started to kiss along his jaw, her arms wrapping around the back of his neck*
Felix: pur lease, I don't go around taking people's chick
*runs around after Lament* I shouldn't hve let ed free you !
L: *Kicks silente off and turns to shadows, voice all that is left*
See, love? This is what I'm talking about. And this is for being a good boy earlier....
*She grinned up at Loki and brought his face close to hers, kissing him roughly*
L: *Voice only* Felix, you can have her now. You think Ed will believe this was a misunderstanding if he gets freed?
*sighs and sinks back under seeing nothing else worth doing*
((Sil- why did you want to know where ZafTC was? She hardly leaves the treehouse-Zaf
*runs at the wall multiple times* Ed!
Felix: woah inks, came down!
No! Ed!
*Rolls his eyes once the stasis wears off*
Yeah, blowing me up while I'm in stasis has worked so well in the past. Just leave, alright?
*Roland chuckled again as his body betrayed him. He sighed into her touch again, not being able to explain why she had such a hold on her.
He put his hands onto her back.*
L: *Voice* He won't die, just suffer eternal pain.
Felix: I will have to leave then! I don't want her, no offence
(@Zaf cause I'm bored and thought maybe if she was somewhere nearby I could entertain myself with Zaf & Sil rp. Bit she's at home so nm.)
*scream* you bastard! Let him go!
*keeps charging at the wall*
I will not stop protecting Silente. It is up to you if you wish to continue fighting. I can do this all day. Back off, stand down, and I won't kill you.
L: *Voice* Felix, can you control her please. Anyway, choose your side carefully, who do you think he will blame?
()
*She shivered at his hands on her back and slowly returned to his lips. Her kisses were soft and gentle but they were growing quickly into something else entirely. She pushed herself up so her face was above Roland's and kisser his nose*
Stay with me...
(She can easily be near you.-Zaf
Felix: *grabs Inky from behind*
*drags her back* calm down, we will get him out
*sobs* he must be hurtin so much and I'm helpless
Felix: it's going to be alright, we will get him out *hugs her*
*cries*
(Aren't you busy rping with rose?)
Killing me, another thing that has always worked so well for people. As for keeping it up all day I've kept it up for weeks on end before, you're not going to outlast me.
L: *Reappears* Felix, it is not too late to join me.
*kisses her back, vanishing his armor*
((One can easily multitask.
Felix: burn in hell *throws hell fire at Lament, scorching him*
*He kissed her back, trying to keep with her pace but he was still learning.*
I will always stay with you...
(If you want to then sure. May I point out, now is probably the best chance you'll get to take her out.)
*She grinned up at him and nodded*
I have taught you well, haven't I... I didn't even have to ask...
*She grinned wider and trailed her hands along his chest, her lips attacking Loki's*
L: Ow, would you like to join the traitor?
((Geez, didn't realise you liked violence so much but considering Soph comes here to give beatdowns every day, I shouldn't be surprised))
*sighs, and folds her arms* I hope you understand what an asshole you're being. You're stopping me protecting your friend - where the hell is the logic in that? You do know Zafira attempted to rewrite her personality, correct? I'm the one trying to stop it happening again. If you really had Silente's best interests in mind, you would put away the sword and fuck off back to whatever hole you crawled out from.
(I do not come here to "give beatdowns". These have been an irregular few days where people have been a pain in the ass.)
Felix: No *continues to burn him*
Just, let him go Lament. I will never forgive you for this
()
*She slowed the kiss, feeling his struggle to keep up with her. She pulled away so she could look at him*
I'm sorry... How about you lead...?
*She brought her face back to his, leaving a small gap between their lips, waiting*
(That coming from the largest pain in the ass here.)
L: *Creates barrier to stop fire* OW. You should ask the demon to release him. If he says yes then he will be free, but consider this Felix. Who will he blame?
Felix: Just let him go already, its time for me to move on out of here anyways
((Rose, if you keep this up we'll probably all end up shipping Loki))
("Oh I'm so sorry that you're butthurt about the fact I'm too strong for you".)
*Roland blushed as he looked at her. He gulped slightly.*
I... I can not do that... I am afraid that I will freeze up and... I....
L: Do not leave Felix. *Presses button and walls collapse*
*Falls over*
Felix: *stands there*
Ed! *crouches down next to him* Its going to be fine *holds his head*
(That was me being honest, something I do quite often. If you dislike it that's fine.)
Zafira: *remotely works on rewriting Silente to Annabelle, the mortal JB lover*
I am smart...*kisses*
(Tia XD Roki Doki!)
()
*She trailed her hands along Roland's face, smiling*
You can do it, my dear... I know you can... And if you freeze up, I'm just going to have to kiss you until you're all better again... How about that...?
(Unlike you, Blake, I know how to take a hit. I am simply mocking you.)
L: *Disappears*
*Wakes and looks round* *Sees Felix and walks up to him*
Felix: are you...alright? That was tough man
Ed?
You are, my love... Very smart...
*She pulled her arms out of her coat and kicks off her shoes. Then she grinned up at him, her eyes sparkling with mischief*
That's all the skin you're going to get...
Don't worry Inky, I will be fine I am sure. *Turns back to Felix* You. You,
Oh.....I want more...*starts to take off her top* Mine.
*frowns and surfaces from the lake when she starts getting a headache, grabbing her jacket and looking around for the source of it*
*panics when she realises what's happening and runs, trying to find Zaf*
No no no no no no no no no no no no no no..
Felix: me?
*She smirked and pulled down her shirt again*
No... This is it...
Yes, you. You protected her. *Shakes his hand* I guess I was wrong
Zafira: *works quickly, knowing soon this'll be over and she can rest at peace* *has Ravel's hand as she works, very quiet*
(Unlike you I have enough of an understanding of others to respect their wishes. You on the other hand force your opinion on everyone and get in the way 24/7. If the fact that I'm someone you can't get rid of and who always does his best to keep you away from people annoys you then good, I'm doing my job well.)
Felix: *taken aback* uh, thank you
*smiles* aww Ed
I want all of you, Rose. I really do....
*Turns to Inky* Don't go thinking I have gone soft now. No Felix, thank you.
Mmm...? Is that a fact...? Well, this is all you'll get of me, unless of course, you manage to get it off without stopping me...
*She kissed his arms*
I love you, Loki...
*Roland sighed into her touch again as he gently took her face in his hands and pulled her to him. He started kissing her softly as he started quickening his pace.
He trailed his hands down her back again and under her shirt so he was touching her back, skin to skin.*
(*loves how Blake and Sophia are just arguing through this*)
*stumbles and falls, eyes clouding, confusion flowing through her as her memories are going missing, new ones replacing them*
*calms slightly as she forgets why she was running*
*forgets where she is*
*forgetting who she is....*
(If your job is being an asshole - extraordinary well. Congratulations.
You have enough understanding of the people you choose to understand, to respect their wishes - but not necessarily what is best for them. That you clearly have no knowledge of. What is happening now is proof of it - if you did not stand in my way, I would have been able to protect Silente - your friend is no more. Congratulations. Great job.)
OH FUCK
(Silente - you wish for Silente to get rewritten. Therefore, no matter how many times I attempt to stop it - she will be rewritten. So it would be useless to attempt to stop it. Or fix it. Because it is your wish.)
(What's wrong, Star?)
(By "protect" do you mean "shoot anything that moves"? That seems to always be your go-to method of dealing with, oh, everything.)
I do...I do love you so much....
Zafira: *finishes, and lays her head against Ravel*
Ravel: Shhh...
()
*She was surprised at his energy and matched him easily. When trembled under his hands when they touched her back, goosebumps rising along her arms. Her own hands made their way down his shirt and under, feeling his warm chest under her fingers*
(What Star)
((Well guess my life will be safe!_Zaf
*smirks* Well girls like guys with a touch of softness
Felix: hey, no problem man
(Then you clearly have no knowledge of the word "protect", Blake. I suggest you consult a dictionary if it is beyond your vocabulary.)
(All right guys, put 'em away. We're all friends here.)
WELL
SILENTE
IS FUCKING
/DYING/
IN CASE NONE OF YOU EXPECT SOPHIA HAVE REALISED -_-
FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
(Hey Trip the peace maker)
*Grins* Do they?
(*shrugs* People stand in my way, Star - consequences will happen.)
((Hullo, author stepping in for a moment. Don't take anything he says personally. He wants you to. But don't. Blake just doesn't like Sophia, call it clashing personalities. You have a wonderful point in saying Sil needs protection (As we are currently seeing) and as I said before Blake just doesn't like you soooooooooooooooooo yeah. Alright, by now. - J))
(Welcome Trip)
*She pursed her lips, looking at Loki. After a while, she sighed dramatically and looked up, feigning reluctance. In the inside, she was quivering and eager, but she thought she would okay with him a little first*
You can have a little more...
@Sophia: Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhh I got that.
@Blake: It's okay. :) *hugs* :)
*Roland gasped slightly as he felt Rose touch his chest. Her touch was just magical to him. He then moved and started kissing her neck and her collarbone.*
(Bye*. As said last night he needs to learn how to type.)
Yes, they do *giggles* Anyways, are you really fine?
(Don't worry, Blake - he is nothing more than a minor irritation, even if he considers himself otherwise. He has, however, just caused Silente to die.)
You mean apart from eternal pain? Yes, I am fine. *Laughs* Thanks to you and your friend
(There is a difference, Sophia, between wishing for something and allowing something to happen.)
*falls unconscious*
*blinks and pushes herself up, looking around in shock*
Where the...
*looks down at her soaked and messy black clothes*
Eew. What the hell. hat tthe hell did Tammy do now.
*sighs*
(I don't quite get why that's a problem. Happens all the time if you haven't noticed.)
(The way I see it, Silente - You already tried once, and that failed. And now you are trying again. No matter how many times we try to stop it - you will just continue to make it happen, rendering the action pointless.)
()
*She trembled and tilted her neck to the side, giving him easier access. A small moan escaped her lips and she giggled after it. Her eyes went to his shirt and she frowned. She didn't want to halt his kisses, but she did want more...
She took the hem of his shirt and quickly pulled it over his head, exposing his chest. She giggled and ran her hands along it slowly*
*hugs him and turns to Felix* Thank you
Felix: Itss...ok *yawns* well Ill be off now
*jumps on motorbike*
(Sophia
you're awesome.)
*play with him a little first
Well, bye then Felix. Unless you are coming for a drink?
(How so, Star?)
Felix: Nah, Im good. You two enjoy yourself
Bye, Felix
*takes off her shirt* Good
Bye felix
Back, later. Bye for now
Come on Tammy. This isn't funny anymore!
*shakes her head*
I swear she takes things too far..
*looks around again and squeals, jumping back when she sees a spider scuttling along the ground*
@Sophia: You're very direct when we're squabbling about the best way to untangle something and you just cut straight through it and we just look at your clear straight path like oohhhhhhhh.
(Kay byii)
*She blushed and tried to keep the reluctant look on her face. It lasted a few more moments before she smiled up at him, her eyes soft. She reached up for him*
I love you...
(:(
Silente . . . :( :( :()
*Roland chuckled as he continued. Pausing only for the shirt to go over his head.*
Roland: You are giggling an awful lot my love.
*He let out a quiet moan as her hands had all access now and it was so soothing to him.*
(There is no logic in taking a long, winding path, when there is a shortcut right beside it.)
(Star you have a very odd way of looking at things. The simplest path is far from always the best, that's why the world is such a complicated place.)
(I disagree, Blake. The world is simple - it is only the people who inhabit it who make things complicated.)
@Sophia: Yes, but we don't SEE the shortcut. :P
@Blake: I know. That was a contextual explanation.
()
I can giggle if I want...
*She laughed again and kissed his chest from one side to the other. Then she slowly started making her way down*
I love you so much...
I love you too...
(There happen to be a lot of people inhabiting the world, Sophia, somewhere over seven billion. Sooner or later you're gonna have to deal with them, and it's not going to be simple.)
(Oh and Zaf, wouldn't be so sure on the whole 'no ones gonna kill me then front' after all El is gonna be pissed...)
*smoothes back her hair and pulls her hand back, looking at the lake gunk on her hand*
Oh. My. God. MY HAIR!
*screams loudly*
*He moaned a bit louder, it was always her touch. Always.*
Roland: I love you so much too.
*Roland then coughed slightly then cleared his throat.*
*She slowly started to wriggle out of her pants. She kicked them to the floor and nuzzled Loki's neck, loving his coolness*
Promise me something....?
(Silente - and I will take action. More likely than not - attack her Sanctuary.
Blake - People are not that hard to deal with. All it takes is the right leverage.)
()
*She looked up at him, jumping from his cough. She straightened and took his face in her hands, smiling gently at him*
Are you alright, my love...?
Depends on the request, but continue.
(I found a song called nerd rage XD)
(Tell me more!)
I dedicate this page to Rose, Kari, and Leif.
I want you to be with me for the rest of eternity, Loki...
(Aw... Hear hear!)
I can promise that.
*He smiled slightly at her.*
Roland: Um... yes I feel fine. I think I am starting to feel really nervous again.
I hate this. I do not want to feel nervous every time we get close.
I...
*He looked down at the ground before looking back at her, smiling slightly again.*
(hear hear
I got that Nerd Rage
Nerd Rage
I got that Nerd Rage
Nerd Rage
Nerd-nerd Rage
Nerd-nerd-nerd Nerd Rage
Nerd-nerd-nerd Nerd Rage
Nerd-nerd-nerd Nerd Rage
Nerd-nerd Rage
They say I Nerd Rage
I say they don’t understand
Keep talkin’ trash bitch
Imma have to ban you from my chat room
And I can hardly think
But Imma have to slap Jar Jar Binks
And slam George Lucas’ head in a car door
For far more than just ruining Star Wars
Stop re-mastering, you’re making it worst
And for the love of god, Greedo didn’t shoot first!
And fuck Comic Sans
And fuck low bandwidth
And never say Pluto ain’t a planet, goddamnit
I’m readin’ what you’re saying on the message boards
Yes, I have too had sex before!
With a girl, you don’t know her, she moved away! Shut up!
And don’t tell me Dr. Who is the same
Without Tom Baker, the shit is just lame
And what do you mean you’ve never seen Citizen Kane?
)
(This need is not a true nerd.. He doesn't know that greedo DID shoot first, and that Pluto isn't a planet. I find his claims offensive.)
Good... In that case...
*She grinned up at Loki before she took his face, kissing him hard*
---
()
*She smiled back at him and nuzzled his neck*
We can take it slow, Roland... We can go easy and get you used to this... That's what we'll do...
*She kissed his jaw again, her hands never leaving his bare chest*
*This nerd is not a true nerd.
(Pluto has been a planet for decades, they can't change that because a similar mass was found and they don't want to make a name for it.)
(hehe yea,
I mean im considered a ner (my friends have a group on facebook called nerd nation) and I don't do half this stuff, but the song is catchy)
*kisses her harder, longer too*
((OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG MOCKINGJAY TRAILER-Zaf
(Blake, it's called a dwarf planet. Scientists live to catagorize, of course they have a name for it. It got demoted about ten years ago now.)
(Awesome Zaf ^^
My tongue feels weird, I burnt it today in college drinking hot chocolate)
*She smiled under the kiss and pulled him tightly against herself*
Oh... God...
(I'm a level six game master in a pen and paper game of my own creation. I have so many nerd points. :P)
*stumbles through the forest, squealing at nearly everything and wondering where the hell Tammy is*
*eventually stumbles out into the clearing nearly in tears*
Oh god im going to die in this forest looking like the grudge or whatever she's called and I'll never get to meet justin!
*He moaned slightly again but he could feel the panic in his body. He was tensing up at the wrong time of this intimate moment. One he so desperately wanted with Rose.
He closed his eyes and did his best to concentrate on just her but it was proving to be more difficult than expected.*
*laughs, his habd trailing down her back*
*tilts head at Silente* You're back, I see.
*steps from the tree line into the clearing, sword drawn*
Silente? What's going on?
( Awesome Trip XD)
(Ikr? I'm the coolest.)
()
*She chuckled and pulled away from him, resting her head on his lap and smiling softly at Roland*
I love you... We can take it easy, dear. Just nice and slow... I'll wait.
*backs away from trip and Sophia, eyes wide*
Oh thank the lord people! Please i..I don't know why he has a sword but can someone point me in the direction of California?
(oh are you now ^^)
*She trembled under his hands, moaning softly. She leaned forward and started kissing his neck, her hands tugging playfully at his shirt*
Why the hell would you want to go to California?
(I think I will be back soon, so *presses pause*)
*he puts the sword away and throws his hands in the air*
Oh great, something happened!
*points at Sophia* What did you do?
Go on, I know you want to.
(Oh. Okay. Imma type her reply first. *presses play*)
Cause I live there duh...
(*presses pause*)
(Thnx.)
(lets be fair, nerds are awesome)
(That's true, can't deny it.)
*She pulled his shirt over his head and tosses it across the room. Now she was really smiling, her hands tracing the contours of his chest*
Rose, you really love this.
(I must say I already don't like Annabelle)
(I think she's awesome! I can't wait to corrupt her with drink and violence!)
(its laughable
when I was in school, the 'popular' people saw the nerds as social outcasts. we were the biggest friendship group, no bitching between us. so techniqually it was the other way around)
(I can see why, she's nothing like Sil.)
Oh, please, just shut up.
*She smirked at him and attacked his lips with her own, one hand reaching up to caress his face, the other remaining on his chest*
(Oh yeah, nerds stick together, and are generally much nicer people. Not to mention, we engineer it so that we hold all the power in school elections. >:D
(haha Trip ^^)
(*facepalms at Trip*)
(Okay. Just gotta beg for a moment.)
(El listen for the love of god DO NOT kill Elleni, you hear me? Email Soph, she haz plan. DO NOT KILL ELLENI BECAUSE OF THIS)
(lol, true. nerd power XD)
(Yeah she is a bit like the polar opposite...
Although Sil does occasionally get miffed at her hair.
But not scared of the forest.
And lord knows what's gonna happen tomorrow at sunset...)
*kisses her back, silently*
(Indeed! Outfixing the geeks and intellectually trumping the mainstream kids since 1950!)
(whenever I go on about my friends, my nan flinches because she sees 'nerd' as a derogatory term, but all is cool
Me and my friends go to Cardiff comic con, ill be going as poison ivy this November)
(If I ever get to go to a comic-con I'll be going as Kamina. Because nobody beats Kamina.)
(*trying to gauge what Annabelle's reaction would be to changing* *winces*)
(as in gurren lagan, ive been meaning to watch that)
*Roland grunted in frustration as he started to gently stroke her head.*
Roland: This can not keep happening Rose. It is not fair on you at all. I feel so useless.
*His body had completely tensed up and was past panic point at this stage.*
*She laughed again and pressed herself against him*
Actually... Please say something...
