Laydeeeez an' gentleminions, I present to you, the KOTW paperback cover.
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 4401 – 4600 of 4804 Newer› Newest»(Corsets are made to be worn underneath clothing, indeed. But I have an astonishing lack of clothes at my disposal. I own one dress, one set of cargo trousers, one jacket, one t-shirt and the rest is armour. The dress should be destroyed, I do not often wear the ordinary clothing (which I rather expect is not the type of things you would wear corsets underneath), but I do, however, enjoy wearing my armour. But I rather expect corsets are somewhat impractical to wear underneath armour.)
How-do-you-do, Matex?
Liliana: Then perhaps the upper rooms may be of use to you. The towers are built in such a manner that you, stood at the top of the stairs, will have space to move. But the enemies running towards you up the stairs will be unable to swing their swords. Most ideal for defence. However I may deal with the soldiers of Archeos in the throne room.
(@Matty ahah no you don't! I buy my own corset not you.)
Hey all! I'm rather tired as I have just got home from but as soon as I dissapear and put some comfortable clothes on I shall feel much better.
What?! Why not? I want to! D:
- nods at Lil-
Okay. That sounds good.
-yawns-
Oh, think nothing of it, Kallista. I made one for all of my friends. Even the ones who didn't give me descriptions; I just made them based off my headcanons for what they looked like.
I would purchase myself a corset, but their rather expensive, and that's good money that would be better spent on hats.
Matex, you may not purchase Silente a corset until she sees you wearing one yourself.
... I have worn a dress and a skirt, so I suppose that could be arranged. *shrugs*
(I decidedly don't want to see you in a corset Matty. Firstly you don't know my clothes size. Secondly..actually I have no other reason. Oh.)
(You've worn a dress and a skirt? My my it's all coming out now ;)
Liliana: Indeed. I do not exactly plan on engaging them in combat.
(Clara made one of myself and on it I had red eyes. I think I would look rather good with red eyes. Or gold. They would be good too.)
Then I shall not bother to arrange it. I don't know anyone who owns a corset so it would be rather difficult to arrange anyways *nod*
Oh you underestimate me. Of course I would need to learn your clothes sizes first, of this I am well aware.
You would look very friendly with golden eyes. Golden eyes are the sign of a trustworthy soul.
Once upon a time, yes. I can't recall WHY on either occasion but it definitely happened. Now that I think about it, I have done some rather strange things for no apparent reason...
Ah, thank you!
I'll return in a few minutes with your avatar.
*departs*
-looks at Lil-
I..don't think I want to know what you plan to do to them..
I need food..
("Golden eyes are a sign of a trusty worthy soul" Clara says..
Just one word, RAVEL)
(-cuddles matty- I'm sure you looked dashing.)
Er, would you mind terribly telling me what element she typically prefers?
Liliana: A fight is only a fight if there is more than one party involved in the battle. I do not intend to give them the chance to fight back.
*cuddles little Jai*
The first time, i think i was like, 5 years old...
I do believe there is a photo somewhere too, twas not dashing though -_-
I'm still buying you a corset though! :)
Okie-dokey.
Nice to know Lil. Any idea of a time frame?
(@Matty not if I buy one first!)
Buy as many as you want silly, I can still buy you one :P
*is back in FIFTEEN minutes*
Awesome!
Yes! Three wishes with one stone! Wait- I mean three birds with one lamp! Wait, what? I mean- three genies with- oh never mind. But I made my first wish hoping to make two wishes, but I only made one because that's just like a rule, ya know? And then I actually got to make my second wish! Yay!
Aand then I go writing out this big long thing. :P
Hi, I'm REALLY HYPER RIGHT NOW.
Oops, forgot to take caps lock off for the rest of the sentence. Heh.
I FEEL LIKE RUNNING AROUND AND DOING SOMETHING AND I THINK IT'S AMANDA AND VAL'S FAULT!
Actually it's mine because I got to the posts where I first commented and they were on the first page and they were acting CRAZYYYYYY.
Not to mention I was REALLY stupidly stupid and I'm glad that's over with but I feel like face palming myself whenever I read those very first comments. I KNEW NOTHING. What an embarrassment. *facepalms*
And now I'm distant so- *just posts the thing*
(Hey Lavender!)
(@Matty but..they're usually expensive...)
I have returned. I apologize for taking so long.
(Welcome once again Clara)
Here is your avatar. If you would like me to e-mail it to you, I'd be happy to.
Greetings again, Lavender!
Hellloooooo alllllll!
I have no idea why I'm so hyper right now! I only had TWO gummy bears!
*is craving ice cream still*
Whaaaa! D:
*ice cream suddenly appears on a table a little ways away*
*starts walking toward it slowly, mesmerized*
Yuuuummmmmmyyyyyy...
*drools as she pounces on it*
Yay!
*starts eating*
It was cupcakes! And cookies? Me thinks.
Liliana: I rather think minutes than hours.
Bethany: That close?
Liliana: It is a sound strategy.
*is suddenly calmer now that she has ice cream*
Heh, sorry for the craziness.
Okay! I'm serious now!
Maybe?
Uh...
Okay, still hyper, but not as much.
*nods conformation*
*realizes that might not be the word she wants*
Uh...
Oh joy. So no time to grab a drink?
Yessss!
I dedicate this page to hyperness and everyone who is on right now!
And ice cream and gummy bears! They're awesome! :D
Sorry Kal.
*is holding back her giggles*
*squeals and happily accepts it*
*starts eating it slowly so as to savor it*
Mmmm, thanks Kal! :D
That is why you should let me buy you one. It shall be fun >:D
*is very distant*
The Midnight of Hope.
Hello.
(@Matty Shh. No buying expensive things for me.)
More like the Midnight HOTEL of hope.
*is finally calm again and realizes that she never went to do what she said she'd be distant for*
So I'm gonna be distant starting now.
Liliana: Of course.
I apologize for being distant as well.
Brilliant. Just fabulous.
-gets to her feet, brushing off-
Hey Lil be a doll and lend a vein.
Hey Tiazzzz!
*doesnt know why she added the zzz*
It IS almost midnight for me! And I feel wide awake!
*is also getting back to hyper mode again*
*stops herself from going too far and tells herself to stop procrastinating*
Yeaaa, anyway-
*distant*
Even though I said that twice.
*checks watch*
It is precisely ten o'clock in the morning for me.
Liliana: Does the little vampire need a drink? *smiles* Afraid not.
Bethany: You can have some of mine. I need to practice healing.
-glares at Lil-
Thanks Beth.
-walks over to Beth-

Heya, Hope, Kal and Clara!
I live at 666 NotReal Street, Somewhere-In-New-England, USA.
Bethany: Use your fangs.
*hasn't a clue*
Speaking of 666... brb
Bye, Kal!
Excuse me for a moment. I believe I have to now stop Tia from summoning the Devil.
Use my fangs?? Are you sure?
Soooo... I take it America then?
You could have just said- well you did, but-
*says in happy sing song voice*
Never mind.
*smiles*
So if you do live in America, then cool. :)
(Bye Kallie! -hugs-)
I am indeed an Ameriminion, hailing from the spookily haunted and chillingly frigid regions of New England.
BYE KAAAALLLLL!
*hugs back*
DON'T DIE FROM WORK OVERLOAD!
Bethany: I am sure, yes.
Liliana: *grins*
*nods at Crowley*
Awesome.
*grins*
Oh, and Tia! Don't make me laugh out loud at midnight! (Jk) xP
I logged into a game, and I have a message in my inbox called "Prophecy" and messages in the game are automatically deleted after some time which is displayed under the message.
This one says "Prophecy -expires in -666 days"
Please no Satan :(
*whispers* I must go.
*the Midnight Hotel sinks into the ground*
*sinks in after Clara* :3
Okay..Where? Arm or wrist or hand or...yeah.
Yes I shalk buy you expensive things and there is nothing you can do about it *laughs evily*
Bethany: Your choice. I assume it would be better for me to get used to healing a variety of places.
Liliana: *tries to hold in a laugh*
Awww, bye Crowley!
*drags Tia out before he sinks completely*
Oh no you don't!
Unless you actually also have to leave.
Awww, bye Crowley!
*drags Tia out before he sinks completely*
Oh no you don't!
Unless you actually also have to leave.
Hi, Sil and Soph and Hope! :)
(Of course I can do SOMETHING about it!
Well..
Okay no I doubt I can..)
I have to go distant, but still kinda here.
Have I ever mentioned how much I hate double posting, because I do. Mainly when I do it.
*curses wifi*
Okay..um..
-brushes Beth's hair out of the way then thinks better of biting her neck-
...Um...
-tries to think of somewhere not weird or intimate to bite then realises if you're being NICE about it then it's going to seem romantic no matter where you bite them-
-just bites her shoulder, starting to suck blood from her-
(Hey Tia!)
Okay then, Tia!
Hey, Sil!
Tanya wants to eat you!
Just saying! ;)
Okay then, Tia!
(Tanya wants to eat me or SilTC?)
Bethany: *hisses, but then closes her eyes*
Liliana: You are drinking the blood of an angel. How interesting. And amusing. Apologies. *draws a camera and takes a photo*
SERIOUSLY, AGAIN???
*sighs*
This must be a sign. Wifi's telling me it's too late and doesn't want to keep cooperating, so I'm going to go to bed now.
Night all!
-blushes and stops drinking at the camera flash, growling at Lil-
Delete that photo.
Liliana: I am afraid I don't have time. I am going to prepare. *vanishes in a flash of black*
Bethany: ... Sorry.
-sighs-
It's fine..
-steps away despite having hardly drunk any-
Heal yourself. I'll be fine with what I've had.
Bethany: I am unaware of vampire drinking amounts but you have barely had any. I rather suspect you need more. Please take what you need. I... After you have had some more, you may experience... Slight self-healing properties if you are injured a few hours after drinking my blood. It would be good for you to have more.
-looks at Beth-
I'd rather not Beth. Drinking the blood if an angel..sorry but it's just wrong.
Yeah you better stock up on that healing, Sil!
Bethany: And this is why I never told you. Please stop treating me differently.
(Shhhh Tanya.)
I can't help it! It's your blood! It's fine, I'll be fine.
Bethany: Please just take what you need.
I don't need any more. I can walk, I can talk, I can see straight and I'm not going to rip anyone's throat out. So I'm fine.
Hey guys!
Oh look I'm still Mew! Mew Mew!
*Bounces around happily*
Bethany: *sighs*
*Huggles the bear* You're so adorable!
*Tachlehugs the bear* Cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(Hey Chi and Xan!)
-smiles slightly-
Besides, can't have you tired if you're fighting..
*Wraps her tail around it*
*Hugs it tightly*
Hey Sil!
(-stares at the cuddling pokemons-
...
-backs away slowly:-)
Sil come back!
Bethany: I will be fine. *wipes the blood from her shoulder but does not make any attempt to heal it*
(-pauses in her retreat:-)
-sighs-
Just heal yourself Beth..
-is quite proud of herself for not staring at the blood-
Bethany: No.
Idek I'm happy for some reason because Sil acknowledged the fact that Tanya exists idk I'm weird.
Hey Xan and Chi! Good day to you!
(-pokes Tanya-)
Beth. Heal yourself.
Hello Tia! Hello Sophia!
*Cuddles the bear tighter still*
Comfy! fluffy!
(Hello Chione.)
Bethany: Not unless you have more blood.
(Hello Xanadu.)
(How is everyone?)
That kinda defeats the who point of healing yourself.
Today was a really bad day again, started tearing up but didn't cry thank god. I must seem like a really sensitive person, I've cried 4 times in the last week and...the stuff just keeps piling up and up... I got fucking pissed off and upset because I realised at lunch that I didn't have my jacket, I had left it in the library. Fucking UGH.
(-hugs chi tightly- it's okay.)
*Cuddles Jaimie* Things are so bad right now I just- it's so hard to find something good about life... I'm not happy at home, not happy at school and not happy on the blog. (Well, I am right now but that won't last long)
Bethany: *shrugs* Those are my terms.
(I know Chi. Just..hold on?)
-growls slightly and sighs-
Beth..
But if the stuff keeps piling up I don't think i'll be able to hold it all *smiles weakly*
(Then let us help you hold it.)
(*hugs Chi softly*
You'll get through this. *smiles lightly*)
Bethany: Stop treating me like I need to be protected and take some blood.
*Brings Tia and Silente into a group hug* I love you two, you know that right?
(-group hugs- love you too chi)
-mutters-
You do need to be protected.
-louder-
No.
(Chione - one never has to look far to find something good in life.)
Bethany: Then I will remain unhealed.
Actually Sophia, that's not true. Because I have to look very far for something good in life. Miles.
Bethany just heal yourself for Christ sake
(@chi you have us)
(Chione, it can feel it at times. But you will be missing what is directly in front of you.)
Bethany: Sorry, no. I don't want to be healed.
-sighs-
Why are you being awkward?
Bethany: Because I am fed up of you treating me differently and treating me like a child.
I'm not treating you like a child or differently! Just cause I don't want to bite you doesn't mean I'm treating you differently!
Bethany: You told me when to go to bed. You try to protect me all the time when I don't need protection. I'm trying to help you.
Yeah Sil, how many miles away are you? It doesn't help if I'm talking to someone miles away hiding behind a computer screen. Because that's what she was doing last night. She better be glad we weren't face to face.
Sophia, I have my 5 year old little darling brother. But even he has grown more distant towards me...right now, he's the light of my life, but he's not with me right now. He wasn't there last night.
I have no one I truly care about at school except one boy. And he doesn't care about me back. Which is one of the other reasons I'm depressed and not happy at school.
I have Adam. But he's miles away. One bus and two trains away. Over an hour of travelling, about £7. And he's grounded for 2 weeks.
I have John and other American friends. But how many miles away is that? That's across the biggest Ocean in the world... I have no one to be honest....
Hello...?
And I'm trying to help you! Everyone needs a little protection and I always protect my friends!
Hey Rhos, how are you?
And everyone, it's Author day. Please call me Gemma ^.^
Yeah no I don't need to be noted as an authr I is a nobody.-ZF
True dat!
(Chione, literal distance does not impact how easy it is to communicate with someone. Look at the screen. How close is it to you? See how far you had to look to find something good.)
Bethany: *sighs* You're right... I'm sorry.
*hugs Zaffy*
You're not a no body.
(Gem.. Just look to the future. To uni.)
But Sophia...sometimes even the computer betrays me. And the internet. Sometimes there is nothing good. Last night was, for a small amount of time. But with the good, come the bad, and the worse.
I won't be getting to Uni this year Jaimie *laughs*
(You aren't a nobody zaf)
It's fine just..please heal yourself?
*hugs Gemma*
You too. You're awesome and amazing.
I be alright thank you Gemma,
*offers hug*
*hesitantly* how be you?
(how be everyone else?
Hey Duggy. We're having an Author day!
It's when we talk to the authors, each other, instead of using our characters. We're allowed one RP each today but I'm not going to use any cause I have 4 characters and if I only used one the others would be sad ^.^
(I know Gem. But a year or so after you go uni I fully expect to be there with you)
Wonderful. Just wonderfuk.-Zaf
Cool
Yeah, I don't really role play much anymore anyways....
I've been to busy..
*Hugs Rhos*
You know how I am from my rant about my dad...*smiles* But thanks for asking...
And I can't wait till then, Jaimie. We could maybe share a flat together too ^.^
(There is always something good. You just fail to see it. You have a home. Everything around you is something good. Are you not lucky to have them?)
Bethany: No...
You ok Zaffy?
Sophia, to be honest, I just want to go to sleep and not wake up right now. I just want to lay down on a road, staring at the sky, And wait to be ran over by a car. I like the sky. It's pretty... So I want that to be the last thing I see. Except, it won't be. It would be the car.
(@Gemma exactly! A flat together singing frozen all the time with ice cream and maybe even vodka if we're in the mood. No fizzy pop and no tea. Just look forwards to that.)
-groans-
Why not?
I object, if I want to rp I will rp, nobody should be telling me if I can. I don't want to talk as myself, I'll be damned if I do. So if I talk as Loki, too bad, I have no desire to talk as myself and be limited to what I do. -Zaf
True and No probs Gem
(Then you really need to realise that there are always good things around you, and that there is always something worth living for. Whether it be a belief or an aim, a person or a whole range of other reasons.)
*Poof!*
So people really do poof.
(Zaf..Don't cause problems please..)
You do whatever you want to do Zafira. I don't care. But everyone else is doing this because we're trying to bring Blogland together again, after you ripping it apart. Don't take part, fine. Everyone else will be talking and taking the fun quiz that I've got set up for tonight (It will be fun, I know that, I just don't know what it will be currently *laughs*)
(@Gemma oh and of course eating chocolate and watching frozen too.)
Well, its true. I'm not sitting back and letting someone tell me I can't rp and I have to be myself, sorry there is a reason I have my name not Zafira Kerias on here. I don't want to be myself, I like going into a world not my own, giving myself a break from thinking of every little tiny thing I end up thinking about as myself. Not happening today or any day, if I wanted to be myself, I would. I don't. I'll talk if I have to, nothing more. -Zaf
God damit I'm hungry..i could eat some chocolate. I want some chocolate right now...I have a c-
Hey! I have a huge chocolate birthday cake to eat xD
You and the stupid quizes, ruins people's nights. Makes people who don't want to participate be forced to. I think you broke it after ignoring everyone. Grow up.
-Zaf
Bethany: Because I don't want to be healed.
(@Zaf okay but just understand that we're all doing this and that there's a slight chance you may be slightly ignored..
@Gemma WHU?? MA CAKE!!)
Whatever Zaf. I didn't TELL you that you had to be yourself. I also didn't say that you were involved anyway. I said that WE were doing it. And I wasn't even speaking to you.
(the above is for the comment from Gem to me...)
Zaf we didn't say you can't role play and if you really don't want to talk as your self then ok...)
Zafira, please. I recognize that you don't care for what the others are doing, but more harsh words will only worsen the situation for everyone, including you.
(-facepalm- Zaf stop! Don't start causing arguments already! Gemma is trying to HELP the blog and you're starting arguments.)
You aren't going to heal yourself until I have more are you.
(Zafira, if you don't want to participate in the quiz, don't. No one is forcing you. But do not complain at someone attempting to find something fun to do. There is no need for it. Whatsoever. Don't come on if you do not want to. I mean no offence by that - but no one is making you be here against your will. And if something is happening that you do not like, then just do something else?)
I ignored one person who I hate. I did not ruin everyone's night at all. I saw your comment. I chose to ignore you. "If you have nothing nice to say don't say it at all" So I didn't answer you. And everyone was enjoying seeing what Pokémon they were. Sophia didn't take part, we didn't FORCE anyone to take part at all. People joined in because they thought it was fun. And it was. Until you showed up...And I'm being the bigger person here actually. If you didn't notice. I'm 17, I am grown up. I am mature, when I want to be. But there are times you need to relax a little.
Bethany: Nope.
Woah....Ok. When did Alastair come on....
Right. Ok. Zaffy just gonna shut up now.
I am terrified of angry Alastair...
*poofs terrified*
-Zaf
(Actually, Chione, I did take part. I chose to due to the fact I know nothing about Pokemon, and thought it would be interesting to see if any of the creatures and I would have anything in common. The result was Ninetails or something similar, who seems to be rather pessimistic.)
(Hello, Alastair.)
Oh, I'm glad you participated then Sophia. I'll go look up Ninetails, one moment please.
Actually I have class but still am terrified of Alastair,
-Zaf
I'm not staying, Zafira, nor am I angry. Don't leave on my account if you don't want to. I merely think it unwise to begin another argument.
Wow, that's actually a really cool Pokémon. ^.^
Hello Alastair, How are you?
(I would rather call myself realistic rather than pessimistic but it occurs to me that it may simply be a word pessimistic people call themselves who are in denial.
Alastair, according to Star Inkbright, you are kinder than me.)
Well, if things have calmed down somewhat, I'd very much like to come and say hullo to my favorite supervillain, Alistair Cruciatus.
Hello Sophia, and Chione. I'd rather not speak to how I am.
If I cease to respond, it's because I've left, not because I intend to ignore anyone.
Thank you for clearing that up.
That's quite alright, Alistair, I understand completely.
Hello Clara! how are you?
Quite well, thank you. Though I'm afraid I can't stay for long.
Oh, that's quite alright.
I'm afraid I'm going to fall asleep...so if I don't reply, I either poofed or I'm asleep. I'm so tired...
(Hello everyone! *realises it Friday and there's cake in the fridge* Whooooo! *throws a mini party*)
Hello Velvet! I have a huge chocolate birthday cake that I have to eat. Yay!
*thinks*
I actually didn't eat the piece of cake that Kallista gave me last night...
*Noms it happily*
I wish I had cake. I'm a pie person, myself, but cake is lovely too.
