Edinburgh tomorrow, where LSODM will be on sale for a few hours, then whipped away again until the 29th, because we're mean...
So... spoilers. I hate spoilers. I hate them as a reader, and I hate them even more as a writer. I don't even like mild spoilers, such as "Just wait till you see what happens to Kenspeckle!" or "All I will say is... Mevolent."
I get it. I do. You have a piece of information that's bubbling inside you, and you want to share it but you know you can't, so you share a sliver, something you think is enough of a hint to be relevant, but not enough to ruin anything... and yet, even this is a spoiler, because it's alerting someone to something big that's coming up...
I happen to have readers who are very respectful to their fellow Skulduggery fans, a fact that still amazes everyone at Harper Collins. I know that's going to continue, but we all have to be vigilant about this stuff.
I write these books for you to read them, to discover them, to experience them, on a page by page basis. It sounds obvious, right? But spoilers wreck that.
Okay, I shall now stop talking about it. But if you see ANY shop selling LSODM before the 29th, tweet me and let me know.

#ChaseForBookNine
:( where are the old people? the ones that were here 3-4 years ago. they are gone.
i am back!
:P
@Zenro: They all left. :(
Most of the people who were on when I was new have also left, and I've only been here a bit over a year and a half . . . Which makes me one of the older regular minions. :)
Dragona stull comes on though, as does Taia, and occasionally we see Kal and Skyril and Octa . . . yeah. :)
#ChaseFirBookNine
@Zenro: But we newer people are very nice. :)
Some of the best people I've ever met are Bloglandians of this gen. :)
#ChaseForBookNine

Snow; I called my horse on Minecraft Derek. My dog/wolf thing was Tanith, my sheep were Derek-Bob, Bob-Derek, Borek, Debob, etc., and my pigs were Bob, Bobalina, Bobbette and Bobbine :D
HI GUYS! *huggles backlles*

(Debob was my favourite sheep, but Tanith ate him.)
5 MORE HOURS UNTIL PUBLICATION DAY!!!!
i'm guessing you like the name bob...
at the Melbourne Aquarium i got 2 penguins, 1 big and 1 small. the small one is called Steve and the big one is called Mel
@duck IKR?!?!?!?!?!?!
@snow IKR?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
@Saph: *laughs* :)
I SWEAR, SUGAR HAS LIKE NO EFFECT ON HOW I FEEL AT ALL.
EVERYONE'S ALWAYS LIKE OGH MY GOSH I AD SUGAR I'LL BE SO HYPER!!!
AND I'M JUST, LIKE, UNAFFECTED. O_O
IF I GET HYPER, IT'S JUST BECAUSE I FEEL HYPER, YOU KNOW?
ALSO SOMETIMES I GET HYPER WHEN I'M TIRED.
AND THEN MY THOUGHTS START FALLING APART. XD
AND RELATIVELY RECENTLY, I WAS AT A SLEEPOVER AND I WAS REALLY TIRED AND I JUST STARTED SPEAKING AT SUPERSPEED AND THEN TRIPPING OVER MY WORDS. XD UNINTENTIONALLY, I MEAN. I JUST KPET SPEAKING REALLY FAST FOR SOME REASON . . . XD
YEAH.
GOING OFF-TRACK HERE.
#ChaseForBookNine
DUCK. you chnaged your name taasp
:DDDD
I HAVE TO READ IT ASAP!!!!!
i am seriously thinking about pulling a sicky tomorrow just so i can go get it...
LOL I just looked at the featured videos and saw one that said on it:
"The Rev isn't gone. He just ran into the forest and is never coming back. But when he comes back, he will be the knife masta."
XD
I've seen that theory before, but it's funny when you just see that one th feautured videos screen . . . :)
Once I saw someone saying soemthing like:
"The Rev isn't dead! He's just in the forest training to be a knife master. We'll see him again in 10 years."
A reply:
"Why 10 years?"
A reply to that:
"Becoming a knife master takes time."
I found that funny for some reason . . . :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Star; I never get hyper on anything but tiredness (I don't even know how)
Duck; For you lucky people D:
Snow; STEVE THE NINJA PENGUIN
...
And no-one has any idea what I'm talking about, except maybe Eld if she's read Vaurien Scapegrace; Last Stand of Dead Men :D
I am actually really good at saving new books . . . So I'll live if I don't read it for, like, a few weeks.
. . .
I'm odd. XD
Light was on my shelf for about a month before I read it, beacuse I didn't want the series to end . . . :P
I'll get it when I get it. Until I do get it, I'll live. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
I ordered LSODM on my Kindle, but I DESPERATELY want the actual book too.
Gtg, sorry! Bye!
@Saph: YAAAAY!
I'm not the only one, so let them criticise . . . :)

*clears the throat*
ahem... are you ready for the best 6 jokes ever??
1. how do you get a baby in a shoe box? with a blender.
2. how do you get a baby out of a shoe box? with a straw.
3. whats red and white and sits in the corner getting smaller and smaller? a baby with an apple peeler.
4. whats red green and white and sits in the corner? the same baby three weeks later.
5. how many babys can you fit in a taxi? 100. 1 in the front, 2 in the back and the rest in the shoe box.
6. whats the difference between a truck load of babys and a truck load of water melons? you can unload water melons with a pitch fork
ive got better.
Derek Landy walks into a bar,
Tanith is tortured, and all the best characters die.
TADA
* that last one, is you CANT unload water melons with a pitch fork.
I have money but I'm not planing on using it. Pfft, always use your parents money.
Unless you're 30. Then get a job an use your own money.
:( FOURS SAPH!
#ChaseForBookNine
@blaze you cant beat the baby jokes. never.
@Snow: IS IT BAD THAT I WAS AUGHING AT THEM? XD
#ChaseForBookNine
BYE SAPH
@star no, not at all.
*is still laughing*
"And the rest in the shoe box* XD
#ChaseForBookNine
I am um watching Supernatural again...
STAR STAR I NEED TO TELL YOU IRRELEVANTLY IRRELEVANT NEWS
STILL WOULD LIKE TO DESTROY THE HAIRDRESSERS I WENT TO YESTERDAY
#ChaseForBook9
oh, yeah. BYE SAPH!!
oh i WISH I WAS a punk rocker with flowers in my hair.
in 1976 revoloution was in the air.
i was born too late, into a world that doesnt care, oh i wish i was a punk rocker with FLOWERS IN MY HAIR
HELLO IENI! :)
IRRELEVANTLY RELEVANT IS IRRELEVANTLY RELEVANT. *nods*
I'M GOING TO THE HAIRDRESSERS TODAY. :O
#ChaseForBookNine
HEY! I WAS WATCHING SPN BEWFORE!
but my computers stuffed, and im still on season 1....
:P
BABY JOKES RULE!!!
@Blaze: *is laughing because FLOWER MONARCHSSSSSSSSSSS*
#ChaseForBookNine
*eats Krispy Kream donut*
@Snow: YES. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
what is so good about krispy kreams?
idk, i just got one at the airport because i was hungry.
Hey, everyone!!:) *ninjaeroplanetacklehugs*
NOPE DON'T DO IT. Um, basically I had my hair really long and I asked for about 2cm off and they took about 5/6 off and now it looks stupid and they cut my fringe to high an I look like Spock and um I have to wear my hair in a bun as to not looking so stupid now.
Not going to that place again.
Oh, the irrelevant information is that I found out some stuff about Ieni from Mel. Only small stuff though:) Like old or young, where I am from, gender and um the opposite to a really long sentence.
She says that Landy's gone too far this time with our feels. I'm quite scared for everyone.
Uh, KK are supposed to be really nice and I've had 2 and they're okay, but no where near as nice as Millionaire Shortbread.
Wbd - SPN
#ChaseForBook9
argh... g2g, byeeeee
(i am gonna watch DOCTOR WHO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
BYE SNOW!
thats a perfectly liget reason to leave!
Bye, Snow! *hugs*
Aha, Doctor Who is ACE (omg Luci's got me saying that now xD)
#ChaseForBook9
FANTASTIC!
hey does anyone here know what a tenrec is? THEYA RE SO CUTE!
I DISLIKE CREAM.
@Ieni: :(
Poor you.
At least it'll grow. Not like you've stuck with it for life like a Barbie doll would be. :)
Hunter and Ez can grow their hair at will. It's cool. :)
MILLIONAIRE SHORTBREAD IS EPIC. :)
@Ieni: YAY! :)
#ChaseForBookNine
@ELD: NO.
SORRY. :(
#ChaseForBookNine
I don't like cream that much either. It's one of those things you expect to like and people expect you to like and then you don't. I don't think KKs have much cream in, tbh - it's all just sugar.
But, I LIKED it like that. It's not the whole the hairdresser did it wrong, it's just whole it just makes my face look even more uglier than it is and I'm scared to go out looking like this, because people are going to think I'm just ugly shit person and my other hair covered that up a bit because it was quite nice.
Sorry, no, Eld:(
#ChaseForBook9
Morning! :)
how's everyone?
#chaseforbook9
Right, just looked at the time stamp on the comment above mine.
Aaaand, now I feel like a total goon.

#chaseforbook9
Hi Flora!

ADRA! *tacklehug*
Morning!
#chaseforbook9
*waves*
I finally got a light fixture in my room.
I am happyy
*waves back*
Awesome!
What's it like?
#chaseforbook9
Well, I can see, for once :p
Yay!
Haha well that's always good!
#chaseforbook9
*dances in the light*
WEEE!
*laughs*
*pokes Flora*
In reality, I think you should be the Florwe Monarch
*Flowerrr
HEMINGWAYYYYYY.
... may suddenly fall asleep. :P
Wait, no. I'm not gonna fall asleep, but I may lose focus.
May suddenly lose focus. *nod* :P
#ChaseForBook9
Sorry! Got distracted by clips of The Ellen Show :P
Haha I totally should! Where could I fit that in my name??
Heya Taia!
#chaseforbook9
Sleeeeeeeep Taiarawr!
And I don't know? But I just say that mainly because we were having... A democracy yesterday over who would be the best Flower King or FLower Queen.
I nominate you to be the Flower Queen (As long as I'm the Flower Princess) and by the end of the day, you shall be it!
Hey Flora! :)
ADRARARIOUSNESS (as autocorrect decided to call you, caps and all) it's midday. I'm tired, but not in a sleepy kind of way, if that makes sense. :P
Ooh, Flora for flower queen? C:
It means no more Tadra for royalty, but I do like the sound of it. :)
#ChaseForBook9
I should totally be Flower Queen! Especially seeing as that's my forte - manipulating flora and fauna etc :)
And of course! If I become Flower Queen, then you shall be my princess!
#chaseforbook9
Well, we're already the king and Queen of ships, soooo (I joke!)
Nah, I wouldn't need a title for Tadra. It'd be nice, but... *shrugs* The title CALLS for Flora
You can be a princess too, Taia! :D
#chaseforbook9
Yay! Princess Adra of Flowers!
I actually like that.
Princess Adra.
*squeaks*
Yay for Princess Adra!
*dances around Adra, throwing flower petals over her*
#chaseforbook9
*gives Flora an intricate Flower crown with bends at the top like an actual crown, not just a circle*
Yay!
Queen Flora, Princess Adra! :)
*considers*
Hm. I will accept your offer of princesshood.
I've never been a princess before. :3
And flowers rule, so that works, too. :P
And OOOH, cool crown. C:

#ChaseForBook9
@Lia: btw why are you a queen now?
#ChaseForBook9

:P
#ChaseForBook9
Hi Duck!
Why are you all Royal flower people?
#ChaseForBook9
Sorry! Had to answer the phone!
Awesome crown, Adra! Thanks! :D
@Taia: Yay for princesshood! :D
*throws flower petals over Taia too*
*stops*
...I guess this is kinda like an initiation process now, huh? :P
*shrugs and continues*
And of course! *throws petals over Trip wherever he may be*
@Rhydian: I'm good thanks - just been made Flower Queen :P You alright?
#chaseforbook9
No, Taia! No it is not!
QUEEN FLORA PLEASE ANSWER! *kneels before her*
Oh-
YAY!
I'm good Lia!
#ChaseForBook9
@Taia: omg...you're totally right! I have hayfever and asthma too! :O
well, just gonna have to suffer through it! *sneezes* ...balls....
@Rhydian: ...uh...I don't actually know...because I rock? ;D :P
#chaseforbook9
@Lia: That must be why. YOU ROCK!
#ChaseForBook9
WOO
Totally tempted to go draw a Flower Queen now...hmm... *ponders*
#chaseforbook9
LOL, Flora!
*grins, suddenly drenched in flower petals* :D
Alright, Adra, - Well, I don't think I usually put wise before awesome ANYWAY. :P
As Flora says, we'll just have to take it and continue. *nods*
@Flora: That is a GREAT reason. :D
#ChaseForBook9
*points to her hair, which is in a bun, with one large red flower in it*
*nods*
@Everyone: btw I'm going to write the next RCA chapter once my sis gets of the computer. Which should be eventually
#ChaseForBook9
We will have to fight against our enemies- THE PESTICIDES
@Taia: Yup, totally is! :P
@Rhydian: Whoop whoop!! :D
#chaseforbook9
YAAAAAYYYYY!!!! RHYDIAN! YES. WOO. HOO.

#chaseforbook9
No! Probably not!
But we are expanding our kingdom

#ChaseForBook9

Don't worry Rhydian - you'll be a great knight! :D
@Adra: TOTALLY!! :D
Thoughts on my new name? ;) :P
#chaseforbook9

#ChaseForBook9
See ya Adra!
#ChaseForBook9
Right guys, I need you to tell me what your princess/prince/knight looks like because I'm going to attempt to draw us.
I need height, hair colour, skin tone, colour of clothes, weapons, etc
#chaseforbook9
Hello, how are you all? What's going on here? ;)
Hey Mithria! I'm a queen! :D
#chaseforbook9
Hi Flora! :)
Who's your king?
I Mith! I'm good thanks! Yourself?
#ChaseForBook9
Sorry for poofing.
I keep rereading chapters of The Little Prince, over and over again, and I don't know why but I can't stop. :P
YAY, Rhydian! Flower Knighthood! :)
*Laughs* Hey Em! :)
Awesome name, Flora! ;D
Alright, Adra! *waves*
Hey Mithria! :)
#ChaseForBook9
@Lia: just look at my display pic. That's what I look like.
#ChaseForBook9
I'm fine, Rhydian, thanks!
Hi Taia! :)
Oh God kill me please this day could not ahve started worse
I am gone
What's up Adra?
#ChaseForBook9
@Mith: ...I don't know... :O
Maybe I could just go solo?
Or go against convention and have queens instead of a king and a queen?? :D
@Rhydian: I can't really see it! Too small! D:
Plus, it doesn't have to be how you actually look like - mine won't be - mine will be my character :P
#chaseforbook9
Oh no! Adra, what's up?
#chaseforbook9
@Lia: damn. *shrugs*
#ChaseForBook9
@Flora: Um. Um. Um.
Height would be a little above average but not particularly notably so, if that makes sense. (?)
Hair colour goes blonde, ahm, skin tone paleee.
Colour of clothes? I don't think I'd mind particularly, provided not overly bright (:P), aand weapon-wise, I'd probably say sword. :)
If anything's unclear or just not fitting or whatnot, make it up. My OC hasn't been made yet anyway. :P / :)
#ChaseForBook9
*hugs Adra* Then there's space for it to get better?
#ChaseForBook9
Brb. Need to help mum
#ChaseForBook9
@Taia: Okie dokie! Thank you!
How long is your hair?
#chaseforbook9
Have to go now... sorry. Flora, if I could be part of your kingdom as well, can you please email me? Thanks! :) Bye now!
What's your email?
#chaseforbook9
'Kay Rhydian.
@Flora: Ah. Hm, a little below shoulder length? That kind of collar-bone-ish place. Sorry I'm being so vague - I don't really know. :P However's easier/more challenging/makes more sense?
*shakes head and shrugs confusedly*
#ChaseForBook9
Bye Mithria! *waves*
#ChaseForBook9
*comes back depressed*
#ChaseForBook9
Bye Mith
#ChaseForBook9
Welcome back, Rhydian!

A bit of happiness before all our hearts are broken over the next few weeks.
Everything okay Ads??
What's wrong Ads?
#ChaseForBook9
NO.
I feel like an idiot right now. i'm not kidding I'm so done
What's wrong Ads?
#ChaseForBook9
Why, whats happened babe?
You're starting to get me concerned now.
Adra what's wrong?
#ChaseForBook9
Just class- I messed up my homework and UGH.
My teacher just makes me feel stupid. Everything does.
GOD.
I'm not stupid, I know... It's just so HARD. I swear I'm dyslexic or something
*hugs Adra* people can be like that. And I don't think you're dyslexic. Homework is just hard
#ChaseForBook9
It isn't that..
I mean, low-dyslexia. As in I read things wrong and say them a lot. It's frustrating.
A lOT.
When you're in a class of freshman and they're doing better is not good.
sorry, I have to go now. Bio
You are not stupid.
Don't ever think you are stupid. Homework is there to be fucked up because then you learn and get it right the next time.
And don't worry about your teacher, all teachers are ponces.
You are perfect babe.
Back. Bye Ads.
*struggles not to fall asleep*
#ChaseForBook9
Sorry for poofing.
*hands cookies to all*
#ChaseForBook9
Bye Adra...and Em I'm just...never mind if by some miracle Brave checks his email I'll be amazed
Hi Ed
#ChaseForBook9
hi rhydian
Wbd
#ChaseForBook9
Tomorrow be the worst day ever I know it! Because whenever something good was supposed to happen and it doesnt the day turns out horrible.
Nothing is flawless, Zaf, you know that.
Whatever good's supposed to happen, it makes the 'bad' seem worse, because the expectation is so high, that when one thing goes slightly awry, it can feel like the end of the world.
It's not.
There's still good there, but, like with all things, there are some setbacks, too. That's kind of how life goes.
But, hey, good luck. ^^
