Lots and Lots of Photos

Okay then, as promised, documented evidence that show you Minions are an incredibly creative bunch...

Here is the first batch of stuff I was given while on the KOTW tour.


I've started to only pack half a bag every time I go away, because the amount of things I'm given while signing is just astronomical. What usually happens is that my publicist takes anything I can't fit onto the plane and sends it on to me afterwards. Well, the final package has arrived, so here I am to give you a brief pictorial rundown.


A skull! Signed by "le gang"! And a picture from the irrepressible one, Becky...


I don't have room to put up all of the artwork I was handed, but here are some pieces that stood out...







And I was also given books! One Minion had illustrated my biography blurbs- wonderfully unique idea! And in Liverpool I was handed Project Baguette, a collection of letters and notes and drawings and all kinds of coolness.



And elsewhere in the UK I was given a box! A wonderful little box!


But what's INSIDE the wonderful little box? Is it, perhaps, a set of wonderfully TINY Skulduggery books? It is!


The pic below is so cool. For those of you who can't spot the similarity, this is Super Derek, sitting on a stack of books, reading one with, er, his tongue hanging out of his mouth...

Quite simply one of the CUTEST things I've ever been given.



I've shown this one before, but I figured I'd do it again, and add in another two Skulduggerys (one from this tour, another from... three years ago, maybe...?)



And this! This Raggy Skulduggery that SHE WOULDN'T LET ME KEEP!


Because of the unfortunate lack of Skulduggery merchandise, many of you have had to improvise. Some of you, ahem, have improvised better than others...





Ah, the Tall Bonde! One of my favourites! You've seen her picture here before (I doubt you've forgotten it) but here is a picture of the BACK of Sabrina Sparrow's T-shirt...


And this is Sabrina's partner-in-crime Becky, giving a suitably deadpan freedom sign...



Naturally, Sabrina and Becky came with their banner- much like they did the LAST time they turned up...

(Present)

(Past)

And here's a picture of Mable and Sherlock totally agreeing with the message in my kitchen...


As I was shifting these pictures from my phone, I came across a few I'd taken in Germany a few years ago...



See that? Stylish AND practical!

And to finish it off, here's a picture of my cousin Michael, who came to one of the events in Australia and looked, it has to be said, AWESOME.


Once again, thanks to everyone who came along, and an extra special thanks to those of you who did something extra special.

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(I am depressed, Silente. Yourself?)

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

(That is not proof. Its lies. You just aren't very awesome either John :P)

Inky Flame said...

(You are awesome Jai !)

Ariadne Silver - Goddess of Passion said...

(Honestly though, you and John are so cute together, he said you were awesome and you were fighting about it. He tries to tell you that you are and you get on so well. It's adorable. I ship it. Erewa too.

Inky Flame said...

(Rhossie! You aren't a prat!
Hey Trippy!)

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

(Hey Trip :)
(*glares at Chloe*)

Ariadne Silver - Goddess of Passion said...

(Hey, I think that an age difference under like... 5-7 years is fine. In school it sounds creepy but out of school it's fine.
And ever heard of long distance? It would totally work.)

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

(How are we all?)

Inky Flame said...

(What have I done? Atleast I didn't ship you !)

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

(@Aria you probably would be were you stuck in someone else's head with little entertainment and next to no decent company, left alone to relive horrific memories all day..
AND YOU CANT JUST ASK SOMEONE WHY THEY'RE DEPRESSED!!!)

Ariadne Silver - Goddess of Passion said...

(@Trip Tired x.x, you?
We stayed up way too late last night...)

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(*hugs Silente back* I am afraid not.


Ariadne - Because of reasons I would rather not discuss. It is no one's business beside my own.)

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

(Long distance doesn't work..trust me..
*sighs and sits in her corner*)

Ariadne Silver - Goddess of Passion said...

(Why? it's better to talk about stuff like that. No one else ever askes her why she's upset...)

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

(As good as always thanks. And you'll get used to it, give it time.)

Garret Falcone said...

(Chlo Chlo!

Hello Jai, Arai, Trip, J and Soph)

Ariadne Silver - Goddess of Passion said...

(Sorry Sophia. But at least I asked.)

Inky Flame said...

(I'm tired too ^.^ )

Ariadne Silver - Goddess of Passion said...

(@Chloe - Woo! so we're tired and mistakes.
You're really pretty by the way)

Inky Flame said...

(*glomps rhossie*)

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

(What were you doing last night to keep you up?)

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(The others have somewhat become used to the concept of them not being able to help and not being told what is wrong.)

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

(*comes back out of her corner*
Rhoe! Yey!)

John said...

(Aria trust me, long distance does not work.

Also no. Never. All Jaimies arguments are right.)

Inky Flame said...

(I'm not pretty...but thanks ! I emailed you by the way)

Garret Falcone said...

(*accepts glomping and holds you in a huggle*

No one! Is a mistake
There is planned and un planned!
Never a mistake!
Okay! )

(*tries to resist making innuendos from Trip's question 'what were you doing last night to keep yourself up' *)

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

(Now Inkles, that is where you lie.)

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

(Garrett, you have no idea how much conscious effort it took to ask if it was you.)

Inky Flame said...

(I don't lie!
Still calling me Inkles eh?
*huggles rhossie*)

Ariadne Silver - Goddess of Passion said...

(RPing with you, Trip xD)

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

(Well, Stalky got old, you know?)

Ariadne Silver - Goddess of Passion said...

(John, how would you know?)

Inky Flame said...

(*gives trip a look*)

John said...

(I don't like to talk about it.)

Ariadne Silver - Goddess of Passion said...

(Sorry Sophia, I didn't know...)

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

(It's a message sent out by every story relating to long distance relationships ever, Ariadne.)

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(About what, Ariadne?)

Garret Falcone said...

(Chlo in this case you are wrong, Aria, trip and i are right,
You are pretty *huggles* I promise you that! )

Ariadne Silver - Goddess of Passion said...

(Is it about your ex-gf? the one who nicknamed you "Blakey-boo"?
Sorry, I'm intruding on your privacy...)

Inky Flame said...

(Thanks....*huggles*)

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

(*adds the look to his look collection* Oh look, what a fabulous look!)

Inky Flame said...

(Really Trip?! )

Ariadne Silver - Goddess of Passion said...

(That other people asked you and you didn't answer...I just don't like people being upset if I can help them...)

Commander Sophia Keating (N7 Operative and Council Spectre) said...

(You really cannot help, Ariadne. Trust me.)

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

Garret Falcone said...

(I'll see you in a graveyard Trip, I'll bring the shovel you bring the coffin..... )

(*smiles and nods* okay..... Woof to you too *is now worried for Chloe's sanity* )

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

(Erm, wat?)

Inky Flame said...

(*prepares to give Jai kiss of life*)

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

(And Inkles can bring the corpse! It'll be oh so much fun!)

Inky Flame said...

(-when the word sit is uttered, who is wear ing the necklace glacé plants to the floor-)

Inky Flame said...

*face

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

(I don't like this. It restricts my basic freedoms. Anyway, I have to go, I'll be back in half an hour.)

Inky Flame said...

(Kay Trippy)

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

(*spontaneously combusts meaning the kiss of life would not work*)

Edward Fletcher said...

Noelle said...

I've picked the ten classes I want to take next year- It's times like these that I want to waive out of religions, since I'm not Catholic...
-AP Environmental Science
-AP Art History
-AP English Composition and Literature
-Music Composition
-Shakespeare
-Robotics
-Pre-Calculus
-Economics
-World Religions
-Christian Lifestyles

I would probably still take World Religions...

But I really want to take World Literature with Mr. King, but... Meh!
