Frankenkids

Just a short note to let you know that if you have any younger brothers or sisters and they like a fun, creepy little scare on the run-up to Halloween (and really, who doesn't?) then my suggestion is to check out Frankenkids, by Annie Graves.

Annie Graves may or may not have been helped out in the ideas department by a gent called David Maybury. The name sound familiar? I've developed a habit- especially in the short stories- of killing off the Maybury brothers in increasingly horrible ways, and the real-life David Maybury is now trying to get his own back. In Frankenkids, the poor boys who are the victims of the terrible Uncle Fraser are named Landy, and the older one is called Derek...

I'm not going to tell you what terrible fate befalls them. All I will say is that David Maybury better watch out. In the next short story, he's getting his head cut off.

Geronimo solves everything. No matter the question... geronimo always works as the answer.

Phoebe said...

Calidae, would you be a dear and pass the sugar??

Geronimo.

Helena Ember Sky said...

Ariana Shade said...

It's fine since it's a planet I'm sure. Well I've gotta go now. Bye guys.

Phoebe said...

Phoebe said...

and death - latest episode. Have you seen it!??

Jophiel said...

No, I haven't! I need to! I love the angels!!

Phoebe said...

You wont after this episode. You. Will. Loathe. Them.

Phoebe said...

it is a really good episode though.

But bring a box of tissues when you watch it.

A box of extra-large tissues that, combined, could soak up the pacific ocean.

Jophiel said...

It is on tonight... Aparantly...

Phoebe said...

what country are you??

Jophiel said...

Aus

Phoebe said...

Ah :) right next door...

Jophiel said...

NZ?

Phoebe said...

yeah ;)

Jophiel said...

Oh my pancake! Just watched the Impossible Astronaut for the first time!
*Sqeals*

I will be overly distant!!!

Jophiel said...

Next one won't load!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

I just watched The Doctor's Daughter...

Helena Ember Sky said...

The Doctor's Daughter is brilliant!

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

I loved it. I wish Jenny had been travelling with the Doctor, though! That would've been cool.

I'm watching every episode in the wrong order... Geez, it's almost like River and the Doctor's timelines make sense because of it.

Helena Ember Sky said...

Yeah, watching the episodes backwards seems like you're following River through her life.

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Not necessarily backwards, but definitely the wrong way. When I first saw Silence in the Library and Forest of the Dead, I already knew who River was and it was sad. Then, when I watched them later on, it was REALLY sad.

Helena Ember Sky said...

I'm going to try and watch the episodes in the way of River's timeline. That'll be fun.

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

It's fun. I've done it.

Helena Ember Sky said...

Lucky.

Unknown said...

Ahahah Landy and Derek

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

Hehe.
I think I'll get that for my sister. She is the type of person who likes scary stuff. *evil grin*


Also...

Landy and Derek.

*falls over laughing*

Uilliam Kinsella said...

Hey, who's got the same picture as me?

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

A lot of people have my picture...
Just with different close ups and further away and stuff...

Uilliam Kinsella said...

Yeah but mine was original.
I liked it.nobody would chose the same picture as Nix.

Helena Ember Sky said...

Dude, it's a great picture but EVERYONE knows it.

Nixion Strange said...

Actually Eden, she had it first. She's been on months before you were. So you copied her

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

wbd

Eve the ROCK said...

No way! :D

Any bros here who watch Pewdie's Heavy Rain videos, there's a total Skulduggery moment in the latest part!

Uilliam Kinsella said...

The last time I saw Lauren she didn't have it but anyway I'm going to have to change now.

Nixion Strange said...

What moment?

Phoebe said...

HI.

Uilliam Kinsella said...

Maybe I'll pick the same as Nix?









Nah.

Nixion Strange said...

Lauren's always had it

Eve the ROCK said...

When she holds the envelope hostage and wants to become partners with Scott Shelby. And then he tells her to wait in the car and she doesn't....

XD

Eve the ROCK said...

Hi Phoeb!

Unknown said...

Hello..?

Eve the ROCK said...

Hi Lauren!

Phoebe said...

Hey everyone :) *hands out Valsnacks*

Phoebe said...

whats up

Nixion Strange said...

Hi Lauren!

I'm sure Derek didn't invent not staying in the car

Eve the ROCK said...

*shreds the Valsnack*

Unknown said...

Hey Eve. Hello Calidae.
*takes Valsnack* thank you

Nixion Strange said...

Hey Dark!

Unknown said...

Hey Nixion

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

Hi Cal!

Eve the ROCK said...

I know, but it's still a Skulduggery Moment. I didn't say they copied Derek or anything. :P

Unknown said...

Hi Miss

Uilliam Kinsella said...

Does anyone know how you change your profile picture through a URL?

Eve the ROCK said...

I tried it on the iPod. Didn't work. So Eve is no help in the situation.

Uilliam Kinsella said...

I'm trying but it's not working.

Uilliam Kinsella said...

Okay, I'll just wait till I'm on my laptop.

Helena Ember Sky said...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c61d72fpa4c&feature=autoplay&list=PL6CD0D9AC4A002708&playnext=2

Watch it. Now. Unless you're under 13. Like seriously, if you're under 13 don't watch it.

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

I don't know how, sorry Eden.

My sisters are swimming in the pool in their clothes...

Unknown said...

Sorry I don't know how to Eden.

Unknown said...

Sounds like fun Miss

Uilliam Kinsella said...

What's also quite annoying is that that picture is also mywallpaper and screensaver.

Unknown said...

Oh.. I'm sorry Eden

Uilliam Kinsella said...

No, it's okay.
I'm searching for a replacement as we speak.

Unknown said...

Ah. Okay then

Uilliam Kinsella said...

I've found one,
What do you think?

Helena Ember Sky said...

I like.

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

BENTLEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!

Luciana said...

Phoebe said...

Bentley. Awesome.

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

Hi L!
Now because you brought up Gangnam Style, it's going to be stuck in my head for at least a week now. :P

Unknown said...

Bentley epic!

Zathract Mist said...

*laughs*

Dan + Maltesers.

Uilliam Kinsella said...

The only other option was this.

Luciana said...

Omfg.

Someone wrote a HC about Skulduggery getting a fish because I said Skulduggery should get a fish. Omfgg. W h y

Phoebe said...

bentley is better.

Helena Ember Sky said...

Zath. You're epic, you actually watched it!

Uilliam Kinsella said...

Okay, who thinks the Bentley is better?

Zathract Mist said...

Of course I did.

The Pokemon story. xD

Luciana said...

Hello, everyone! *hugs everyone*

I've got Fantastic Baby crossed with Gangnam Style in my head! It'd actually be a pretty good remix.

Helena Ember Sky said...

I was just about to quote him. Then I realised... No. Just no.

Helena Ember Sky said...

*hugs L*
Heya!

Zathract Mist said...

It would scar you, I think.

Luciana said...

How are you all, then?

Helena Ember Sky said...

Yeah, it would.

Phoebe said...

the video for gangnam style is... odd. Amusing though.

Helena Ember Sky said...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c61d72fpa4c&feature=autoplay&list=PL6CD0D9AC4A002708&playnext=2

L. Watch it. Now.

Zathract Mist said...

NO GANGNAM STYLE.

AGH.

I WILL KILL SOMEONE.

Unknown said...

I'm good thanks Lucy.

GANGNAM STYLE XD

Luciana said...

Sorry, Zath. *pokes*

But Gangnam Style is amusing. :P

Zathract Mist said...

Uilliam Kinsella said...

I think I've decided on the Bentley.

Unknown said...

The Bentley is awesome Eden.

Luciana said...

Loki doki, Zath.

You can't kill PSY! He's actually hilarious. c:

Kill Bieber instead!

Msd, actually...

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

OK L.

KEEP THE BENTLEY, EDEN!!

Unknown said...

Okay Zathract and Lucy

Helena Ember Sky said...

I BOUGHT A NEW PHONE!

GFHFJDGGDBJGZ ASAJGJHVXJ HG

Uilliam Kinsella said...

What type?

Unknown said...

Nice Hel

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

*mutters*
8 days and I shall be able to read more books...

Helena Ember Sky said...

Nokia Lumia 800.

Gah.

Uilliam Kinsella said...

Cool.
My friend was going to get one of those.

Helena Ember Sky said...

It's sdudfgbvegfcjygxassfgbcj

Luciana said...

WHERE IS FLAME!?

I NEED TO TALK TO HIM~

Phoebe said...

...is that good or bad...?

Uilliam Kinsella said...

Cool.
The closest thing to that we have in Ireland is the ploughing championships.

Zathract Mist said...

Is it a weird thing that I'm humming a Death Metal song? How do you hum Death Metal?

Uilliam Kinsella said...

Like this.
*hums quite loud*

Uilliam Kinsella said...

Anyway

Uilliam Kinsella said...

The ploughing championships are a bunch of farmers ploughing a field.

Zathract Mist said...

Being loud =/= Death Metal, Eden.

Uilliam Kinsella said...

It's the latest event of its kind in Ireland or the UK.

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

*frowns*
I've never really thought about that Zath.

Star Inkbright said...

Last night I went to Hull Fair. Which is a fair. In Hull. Um, yes. This fair comes to Hull for about a week every year and it's ACE. It's really big and everything. Tons of cool rides. I went on the Big Wheel, the Waltzers, the King Frog ride, this, uh, other thing and it was very cool but it doesn't have a name that would make anyone recognise it and I don't know that name anyway, and I went this thing where you in this round room and it starts spinning and the floor goes up and then the floor goes down again and you're left on the wall with your feet off the ground . . .

And I also got this ace hat. Black and luminous pink. It's so awesome.

(TBC)

Uilliam Kinsella said...

No I always hum quite loud.
It's one of the things people find annoying about me.

Star Inkbright said...

We save up for Hull fair all year. My dad has this tin where he keeps £2 coins and we open it to use on Hull Fair every year. We spent £90 on Hull fair thks year. £60 is about $100. We still have over £100 left in our tin, though. :)

Seriously. Hull Fair is massive. It's not, like, a piddly little fair. It's a proper big fair fair. One of Europe's largest travelling funfairs. We usually park+ride to it. Then to get to it you have to walk up thisvlong street filled with stalls that are all part of Hull Fair, just not in the middle of it. They're always in the same place every year. In primary school we kept having to write poems about it and stuff.

Every year we go on the Waltzers, which I can go on with my eyes open all the way through whilst laughing now, but when I was nine and we first went to Hull Fair (couldn't go before as we didn't live in the area), I was just kind of completely rigid with my eyes closed going whenisthisoverwhenisthisoverwhenisthisover . . . My younger sister was always better than me with spinny stuff. :)

I think I've ranted enough, nowwww. :)

Star Inkbright said...

Brb, gonna go get breakfast. :)

Uilliam Kinsella said...

It's what townies would call the farmer Olympics.
But there's rides and stalls.
It's a great boost to the local economy.
It changes location every year.

Zathract Mist said...

Hi/bye Ink!

*plays The Pride by 5FDP through speakers*

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

Wow.
Sounds like fun, Star! And have a nice breakfast!

Uilliam Kinsella said...

Bye Ink.
