And Tom isn't even FINISHED it yet...! There's going to be some colour stuff happening, and some cool silver effects added and things, but even as it stands now, this is a cover that's going to pop out at you on the bookshelf. For Tom is awesome.
Speaking of paperbacks, we're going to start gradually removing the short stories from the reprints, with the aim of collecting everything (including the Tanith novella) into one big book in the spring of 2014. There'll be lots of brand new stories in there as well, covering the entire series. So will we see a short story starring Mr Bliss, back when he was alive? Will we see Val and pre-Remnant Tanith fighting side by side once again? Will we even catch a glimpse of Skulduggery and the Dead Men at war with Mevolent...?
To be honest I haven't a clue. I'm just making things up as I go along.
Be here on Friday for the Tanith cover...
EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT
Annnnnd apparently I won't be revealing the Tanith cover until Friday the 23rd... bah!

«Oldest ‹Older 3801 – 4000 of 4804 Newer› Newest»Guess the only way for people to pay attention to me is if I join in the stupid Pokemon thing, god knows why people think its so fun.-Zaf
You are all such cute Pokémon, and Murkrow is such a . . . demented childhood nightmare.
(Sil got weavil. -goes back to being angry at Slowpoke-)
(Don't worry Anni)
STOP IGNORING EVERYONE!!!
-sets the pyre alight and uses air to blow the smoke away from Beth and Liliana-
(Rawr :3)
Oh good Heavens.
I take that back. I've just found the most adorable picture of Murkrow that the world has ever seen.
Fox: A Alys....
Thank you Rose. Someone with intelligence.-Zaf
(*releases the teddy* oopsie, soz...just so cute...)
(*Jumps to Blake* Mew)
Feast your eyes.
(*Poofs fire at Ed*)
(JESUS CHRIST YOU TWO WE'RE SORRY OKAY! JUST CAUSE PEOPLE ARE EXCITED ABOUT SOMETHING!)
(*Dodges fire* Mew!?)
(-IS PISSED OFF FOR NO REASON NOW-)
EVERYONE STOP FUCKING IGNORING EVERYONE OKAY???
(TOGETIC!!!! *joins in*)
*quietly* Can there please be no shouting.
ZAF WAS TRYING TO TALK THEN I ADDED IN TO THE CONVO AND YOU GUYS DIDNT GIVE TWO SHITS
Bye
(*Shoves Blake out of Blogland*
Alright, I'm taking over for Blake until further notice. Mainly because we agreed MewTwo is way cooler than Charizard.)
Vik: *nods* nice to meet you Alys
(woof?)
(-smashes apart a village and sits in the tatters glaring at a wall with murder in her eyes-
-screeches in fury and anger and confusion-)
((Fuck off Zaffy, don't you fucking dare say anime is shiity again, because you know what? it changed my fucking life and it's one of the things I most care about. You wouldn't fucking like it if I did the same to you.))
Liliana: You do realise only angels can use that power, right?
Bethany: I am aware. *fires another pulse of energy from her hand, staggering the Colossus some more* *slices its arm off with her sword*
Colossus: *staggers then tackles her to the ground, blasting fire into her stomach*
Bethany: *is knocked to the ground along with her projection, then hisses at the fire* *unfurls her wings from underneath her and flies upwards, the projection doing likewise, carrying the Colossus into the air* *flies vertically upwards without stopping*
(*uses charm*)
Fox: I it is?
I suppose MewTwo is superior, but only due to his intelligence and backstory.
Charizard, however, is a dragon.
A dragon.
((I'm just adorable))
(Ded time....
i ded to our profile pics because they look awesome and reflect what we are like in real life)
I appear to be holding a Fairly Odd Parents wand in my beak. I'm no sure why. Perhaps I'm a wizard.
(hear hear)
-stares at the quickly disappearing thing-
(-sighs and leaves because instability and invisibility-)
I agree. Here here, Garrett!
*raises flagon of mead*
Omfg clara xD
Murkrow is a dark type, and they're kinda magic and mystical and other wizard-y things.
(Hear hear)
*Telepathically lifts his own drink to the ded*
Wingardium leviosa!
Oh! Oh oh oh! I'm doing magic! I can fly! I'M FLYING!
Wait, it's because I'm a bird.
(*uses charm again*)
Clara, you're amazing.
Xan, go look up its evolution then tell us if you really want to be that.
Why thank you. You are amazing too.
Xan, you are adorable. And I would use you as my teddy bear and cuddle into you ^.^
(just to say i look badass! Oh rah!)
(*falls for Chloe's charm* hehe..)
Vik:*nods* it is, now you can trust me, are you going to tell me why you think humans are bad?
Bloody hell.
I'll be right back. I have to help my mother carry a giant UPS package up the stairs. Won't be but a moment.
*departs*
(*uses sweet kiss on Rhos*)
Fox: t they hurt...and h hunt...
(thank you my lovely friends and girlfriend *smiles*)
(-doesn't leave-
-paces-
-tries to get her mind in order-
-is failing-
-that's fine-
-always fine-
-brain break down-
-sparks sparks sparks spark- BANG-)
Bethany: *the Colossus hits the ground a moment later and she flies down, impaling it on her sword, causing a pulse of white energy which tears the Colossus apart*
*the projection flickers and vanishes, and she faints from exhaustion*
Liliana: That was somewhat anticlimactic.
(*grins*)
Aw come on 30 is nothing! Try getting a level five Beldum and training it all the way to a Metegross in one sitting.
Systems are rebooting, one moment please
(*accepts Chloe's sweet kiss and smiles*)
(*Fire blasts J's ass)
Vik: why do they hunt you?
Alys: I im a fox...
Systems are rebooting, one moment please
(*The fire hits a psychic wall*
Really? You really want to attack the guy that took over an island, lured the best trainers around there, took their pokemon, made better clones of those pokemon, and would have taken over the world if not for the revelation of compassion?)
Vik: *nods* I'll be honest that's a new one on me, I've seen werewolves and other magical creatures but never a fox person
(*hugs Silente tightly*)
(System rebooted. Thank you Sophia for your patience.)
-stares-
-runs back to Lil and Beth-
Alys: I Im A Kit Kitsune...
(Hell yeah J why not,
I'm know mewtwo is a bit op (I've played the games... (so many happy times) but still i can beat him on the basis of I'm a dark and fire, your psychic... I win )
(Blake is back, and he's no longer a dragon.
Kinda sad about that.)
Vik: what's a kitsune?
Liliana: *tilts her head at Silente* She decided to use angel powers. She was scared of killing a few flowers.
Alys: a f fox d demon *looks at the floor*
Angel? She isn't an angel. She said so herself.
-kneels beside Beth, clamping her hands and healing Beth, giving her energy-
I am back. Dreadfully sorry about the delay.
Liliana: I think someone may have been telling a little lie.
Bethany: *stirs slightly, opening her eyes* Is it destroyed?
-shoots Lil a glance before Beth wakes up-
And you made me whip her.
-looks at Beth as she stirs, face softening slightly-
Yeah. Its all good. You did it Beth.
-smiles-
*quietly begins to manage some fiddly bits around the Hotel, except as a Murkrow*
Vik: there's no need to look at the floor, I'm not scared if anything i find it cool *smiles*
(Welcome back Murkrow / Clars)
Clara Murkrowley.
@Clara, try saying that ten times really fast.
Alys: r really? *looks up but doesn't make eye contact*
Alys: r really? *looks up but doesn't make eye contact*
(i like it Clars *nods* its got a good ring to it)
Liliana: If I recall, I never made you do anything. You could have refused and walked out at any moment.
Bethany: I... haven't used that power for a long time. Phaestra taught it me...
Liliana: *in a sing-song voice* Liar. You're an angel.
Bethany: *glares*
(Brilliant Anni....)
- shoots Lil a look then looks back at Beth-
You okay now? Why do you lie?
Clara L. Murkrowley, the finest bird around
She's a wizard Pokémon who's flyin' all around
Of Clara L. Murkrowley, many songs were sang
'Til came duck-hunting season
And
Then
*BANG*
Bethany: You already treat me like a child...
(O_O Um... Clara dead...)
-smiles slightly-
I treat everyone like that...being an angel doesn't change...uh...much...
(I SHALL GIVE THE DEAD CLARA THE KISS OF LIFE!)
(-waits to see if Clara is suddenly alive:-)
It's beginning to look a lot like Pokémon
Everywhere you go
There's a Murkrow in the Hotel
And a Mew or Two as well
And here and there the Pokémon spirit shows
It's beginning to look a lot like Pokémon
That I guarantee
But the prettiest Pokémon sight
Is the Murkrow that takes flight
The Murkrow that is me
Oh
The Murkrow that is me
Am I allowed to join in with something or is it not allowed? I'm bored.-Zaf
DO NOT KISS ME.
. . . I have a beak.
If you have a good attitude about it, you can do absolutely anything you want to, of course.
Vik: yes really *nods* the world is full of magical people, look at me, im an elemental *forms a fire ball in my hand*
(just looked really closely at my profile pic and it has a facially expression of "you what?" )
(YEY SHE LIVES!
Depends Zaf, you gonna be civil?
Where's Romeo? OH NOMEO! THERES POISON ON YOUR FACE! xD)
Houndoom: Oh honey, those shoes with with that top?
Isn't it tragic?
So young to have just died?
At least we have each other.
Just Bonnie and-
*gets shot twenty-four times in the chest*
(lol Rhossie XD)
Alys: fox f f fire *summons her own flame*
Bethany: Really? You'd tell me I couldn't do half of the things I want to because I'm 'pure', even though I despise that word. I didn't want you to know. I'm sorry.
(Lol Clars XD)
Houndoom: da fuck? ....)
Its fine..
((Ok! so I had an idea. How does Thursday being quiz night sound? I already have a list of quizzes and guess what? Christmas is exactly 3 weeks away so we can have a Christmas nice or naughty quiz! (if anyone is online on Christmas day))
(@Clara that's probably my fave erb)
Sil, that was unnecessary.
"Are you going to be civil?"
Houndoom: Hey girl hey!
((Erin, you can always join in...you know that. I'm sorry, but I don't like people dissing anime. It has changed my life for the better.))
(Sounds like an awesome idea, J and I are totally in.)
(brill idea!)
(Togetic looks like its going in for a glomp)
(@Death sorry. But I have a point. If she's going to insult people..)
(I DEDICATE THIS PAGE TO ALL THOSE AMAZING POKEMON OUT THERE!)
I quite like the idea of Quiz Night.
Vik: *smiles with impressedness* wow that's some cool fire
(Lol to you too Chloe *smiles*)
((Actually deathy, she was quite right to ask that.))
(*grins*)
Alys: *smiles a little* re really?
(I agree with both Chione and Silente. It was a rather important question.)
Bethany: *hugs Silente* Do you understand why I did it?
Liliana: *grins at the hug, not saying anything*
Also agree. Zaf was being rude before. Sil said nothing uneccesaary.
(Cool idea Chi, i like it)
(Hear hear and yes Chlo your pic does look like that)
(Houndoom: dat ass doh...)
I prefer chunky peanut butter to smooth.
Really?! so Thursday quiz night? :D
I nominate myself quiz master, but if anyone else has any suggestions or REALLY wants to pick the quizzes then that's fine too.
My ideas are;
Game of thrones characters
Walking dead characters
SHERLOCK characters (hehe)
Anime characters
Naughty and nice list (Christmas)
I'll try and find maybe a band related one?
Just different films, TV programmes and fun ones like Pokémon ^.^
Houndoom: That hellhound has the same outfit at me! Oh no she didn't!
(Aww...I feel loved...people are agreeing with me..)
- hugs her back, not noticing Lil's grin-
Yeah I understand..
That sounds quite fun. May I suggest Quotev as a good source for quizzes and such?
(I may dip in and out of the quizzes as I see fit, if that is acceptable. I have not seen any of the quiz topics you have outlined so far, but there are several which sound somewhat interesting.)
I feel loved because I had an idea and people actually like it! xD and also how my Pokémon quiz idea brought everyone together. This is more like what it was in the old days. Not as much RPing but just everyone having proper conversations with each other ^.^
Bethany: *sighs* Are you alright?
So I now know to never come on Thursdays, as I dislike just about everything on there minus Game of Thrones because it seems interesting.
And NEVER use my given name. The only person allowed to is Derek because he knows my given name.
-Zaf
I quite enjoy the games that we play here in Blogland. And, if I may say so, I've made a few rather good quizzes on Quotev . . .
(Sophia, games could be included too if you would enjoy that?)
I'm not the one who fainted dummy. Well.. at least that parts over..
(yes and nice list of ideas Chi)
(good one Clars,
can anyone else think of one for my profile pic?
(Houndoom: aw hell no!)
Vik: *smiles and nods* yes it does look really cool
(Zaf, you have me on facebook AND twitter...*rolls her eyes*)
Houndoom: Have I got something in my teeth?
Alys: t the first to say that... *blushes slightly*
(I am afraid I am no fan of fiction, Chione. Dragona would be more likely to take the quiz but I am not in the habit of playing video games. I prefer to focus on the real world and what is happening around me, rather than what is fictional.)
Bethany: I meant because I lied...
I..get why you lied. So no, your lying doesn't hurt..much...
(Perhaps I could add in a general knowledge quiz and see who gets the highest number of answers right? NO USING THE INTERNET TO LOOK UP THE ANSWERS *smiles*)
(*laughs* there is another good one from Clars *nods* )
(And Chi if you add games to the list that would be well cool bud)
(Houndoom: do you see it? I just did something awesome...)
Bethany: Sorry... I'll make it up to you...
Liliana: I bet you will.
Perhaps pass on the general knowledge quizzes. We want something we can use as a profile picture.
-glares at Lil-
She didn't mean it like that.
- looks at Beth for confirmation-
Vik: really? Well people should tell you it more often
Well still I have asked before and I'll say it again, I don't care if you do know my given name or not, kindly refrain from using it.-Zaf
(I am willing to take most forms of quizzes, regardless, Chione. General knowledge... I have knowledge, but it is not especially very general. I could tell you the inner workings of my M-76 Revenant machine gun... I could not tell you what would be happening in terms of media or anything of the sort other than what I see on the news, however.)
Bethany: I didn't.
Liliana: She's lying. She said she would stop, didn't she?
(Yeah, i'll add games. If you guys have any suggestions for next week i'll take them ^.^)
Alys: p people d dontlike f foxes....
I've always been quite fond of Blogland Truth or Dare.
Shut up Lil. She didn't mean it like that.
(TRUTH OR DARE!!!)
(Truth or dare is not exactly my style. There are few things I am willing to talk about in terms of myself and I would not be willing to do anything that I would not want to. Which, I believe, would be breaking the rules to openly refuse?)
Liliana: Oh yes, she did.
Bethany: I didn't.
(I'll have a think Chi and let you know if i get anymore ideas)
(That's a cool idea Clars *nods*)
Vik: well people are just daft,
foxes are awesome (they are)
Well, the Blogland Truth or Dare I played allowed everybody to bring as many characters as they liked to the table. For instance, I used Precocious, Oscar, Gary, and Photo. This was before Clara L. Crowley, of course.
Guys we could do that now! :D We could just have a blogland fun day on thrusdays! quizzes (with profile pics), truth or dare, general knowledge quizzes (I'll add that in cause it will be funny to see who get's the highest test scores and stuff ^.^
No she didn't. She meant it in a 'I won't lie to you again and I'll help should you ever clash with my mother' type way of help Liliana.
I think all Blogland days should be Blogland fun days, of course. but having designated quiz time on Thursday sounds lovely. Just because we do something on Thursdays doesn't mean we can't do games or quizzes on other days too.
(Photo.. :'( )
(Brill ideas!)
Alys: r really?
Liliana: Of course she did. *smiles* How does it feel to have whipped an angel?
(I will be back soon.)
That would be great, and guys you don't have to play everything! just join in when you want to alright? Omg we could play games like guess the next line to a POPULAR song or something
Ah yes. Photo.
Hey Photo, Truth or Dare?
Photo Finish: . . .
Ah yes, that's right. He's DEAD.
It feels horrible and like I should rip your head off.
(Okay Soph)
Doesn't matter what you do, I'll never be welcome.-Zaf
(-gags Clara- don't be mean.)
I'll need to organise this... we could do something different every day at the same time.
*is gagged by Silente*
*raises an eyebrow*
Fangirls: *SCREAMING*
*Looks around* No, there is no Gemma.
(hey Kalli!)
(*starts choking on the smoke coming from so many working brains...*)
Vik: *nods* yes really *smiles*
We're good for a truth or dare if other people are.
Zaffy, whatever, join in or don't. Everyone saw that I said you are welcome to join in. But fine.
You're a Houndoom. Houndooms do not choke on smoke. They are far too cool.
Yeah I can already tell I'll dislike this.-Zaf
ALys: y you are kind V vik
Hmm . . .
Would anyone be up for Truth or Dare? Right now, at this very moment?
(Hey Kallie
-stares at the fangirls- what do you think is happening here?? She's being gagged to shut her up! Nothing more! What kinky stuff are you imagining here??)
(Hello kall)
(Good plan Chi / whatever you want me to call you?)
Well fine Zaffy. Go then. If you don't think you'll have fun, then don't complain and leave. But you are welcome to join in if you want to.
Fangirls: *giggling*
*removes gag*
*wraps it around a brick*
*throws the brick at the fangirls*
(Alas, I must depart for the night
ciao )
Kalli....that's so sweet...!
*Eyes glow as she sees the big cake and candles* Oooooo!
*takes the slice happily*
Oh, if you must. Farewell, Inky.
(Weird people! I don't even want to know what goes through their heads..
-shudders-)
(Bye Chloe!)
I'm up for truth or dare!
I'll put forward:
Tsubaki
Chione
Cordelia
Sebastian
*is reminded of Shudder*
*gazes off into the distance as it starts to rain and a sad violin plays and wolves growl in the distance*
(Truth or dare? Count Sil in! And...um... Manuel?)
Usually I like Truth or Dare. *shrugs* Question is if it'll be fun today.-Zaf
Alright, Chione and I are up for Truth or Dare. Blake as well. Anyone else?
I will contribute:
Oscar
Precocious
Gary
Clara
And Silente! And possibly Zafira!
Excellent!
"@Death sorry. But I have a point. If she's going to insult people.."
So, you're saying that by insulting Zafira with 'are you going to be civil?' that you believe that she won't insult you?
I think you're being a hypocrite, Tempest. Y'know, by insulting someone and telling them not to insult others.
Zafira is my sister. And you're being a cow to her. So cut it out before you're another thing I have to tell the Tattoo Guy about.
Did you ever hear the saying 'if you can't say anything nice, then don't say anything at all'.
Obviously Blake, and we even managed to talk Erebus into participating.
*Jtotallydidnotuseauthorpowersandforcehimto*
I guess I'll do it, never usually picked anyway but...
I'll contribute
Zanida
Loki
Zaf
Ravel
-Zaf
If the "if you can't say anything nice" rule doesn't apply to Zafira, then it ought not to apply to Silente.
Oh and Kaitlin.
(-hangs head in a moment of silence and respect for shudder-
OH THAT REMINDS ME MY FRIENDS LITTLE BROTHER IS READING SP HES ON BOOK FIVE AND IM JUST HERE LIKE CRY CHILD CRY! WEEP FOR THE CHARACTERS AND WATCH DEREK RIP YOUR BEATING HEAR FROM ITS CHEST!)
So, that means that I'm in a foul mood, the RP idea I had will wait until a few months time.
Bye.
Hullo Kallista!
It seems like we're all here. Excellent.
Who would like to ask a question first? I nominate Chione.
Oscar: . . .
Precocious: . . .
Gary: . . .
Jesus fucking christ Rose that was not an insult it was a genuine statement, everyone agreed that Zaf can join if she is civil about it, no one was insulting her! Stop being so rude!
(Sure Clars, if your up for truth or dare, fire away *smiles* and good point i am too cool to choke on smoke)
(Um, deathy? have you noticed that almost all of the fights and arguments in blogland involve zaf? I wonder why that is... Does anyone know?)
*hugs Rose tightly* Thank you my Aussie. This is why I like you, you don't take shit.-Zaf
Oh, poor friend's-little-brother. He doesn't know what he's in for.
