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.

A bit bored, I kind of want more people to come on now that it's finally the first of September for me
-sighs-
Now would be substantial for a roleplay... But probably not, everyone seems tired. Adra, you up for it? I hardly am, but... I will. As usual.
((Why not- no one else seems to really care about the Ball... But hey- if more people come by we put it on hold. Agreed?))
The wedding?
Well, Harry thinks we should have it in December, on the day we first met. 24th... I gave Louis a card for his birthday at the M&G and he saw the way we looked at each other and set us up. *blushes* But we don't have a confirmed date yet... *nods*
#ChaseForBook9
*appears in an explosion of blue flame, wearing a crimson red tux, a silver top hat and black pants*
(Nevermind, I'm falling asleep)
((Well... This is a development. Perhaps not, then? But tomorrow definitely if not at some point today*
Hello? What have I missed?
I have come here to have that dance, Adra.
*holds out hand*
If you will.
*takes his hand* About 24 hours in, but whatever.
I tried to go back to sleep but can't.
Hi Cas! Not much really, I'm thinking of beginning the after party soon.
Oooohhh. I remember the after party last time. And the after-after party. That was wicked.
Ill be sleeping on the floor at the after party.
((And the after party's after party's after party party's party.
Haha. You frazzled my brain, Adra. I can't wait though!
Of course.
*pokes Flame* Flame?
Helloooo :)
Won't be here long, but thought I'd pop in and say hey
*twirls Adra and places one hand on her waist, and the other in her hand*
*begins to slowly sway*
Hey flora ;)
My iPod's being stupid, btw.
'lo Gemma :)
I know that we were both on at the same time yesterday, but have we formally met? :P
No, we have not. ; 3
HI Your Majesty!
*spins, taking his shoulder* Surprisingly and alarmingly, you've gotten better at dancing, Flame
Ahhh, well then...
Nice to meet you *curtsies*
I have to curtsy because I'm the Queen of the Flowers. I'm also a General, but I don't know what happened to that...*makes mental note to ask Luce*
You can call me Flora/Flo/Ophelia/Lia/Oi, you...anything really, just so long as I know you're talking to me :)
Hey Adra!
@Gemma: Oo, and Adra is one of my princesses :)
Adraaaa
I'm reading your bit in LSODM
#ChaseForBook9
*laughs while spinning around the dance floor with Adra*
Excuse you, I was the male who got the most dances last year.
*twirls*
Oh Mara, that's so funny.
They fail at what they're doing.
Flora?
Can I be a Flower Princess?
#ChaseForBook9
Maralie NO SPOILERS
But I know I' m a BAMF.
*spins and a small circle* That's because you were one of the only males on.
I second that, Adra! No spoilers! I'm not reading it until I'm on the plane on Saturday! :P
@Mara: hell yeah you can!
*throws flower petals over Mara*
I dub thee Maralie Lily Charm, Princess of the Flowers <3
But I was a pretty good dancer, and if I remember correctly, I had two girls fighting to be my blog-girlfriend.
*slows down and sways*
I don't remember that...
No spoilers. *nods*
Ikr Flame. Idiots. *shakes head*
I CAN'T SAY ANYTHING ELSE BECAUSE SPOILERS D;
#ChaseForBook9
Must disappear now! Be back later (possibly with Peter, don't know)
G'bye my lovelies!
#chaseforbook9
Well it happened. It was Helena and someone else, who I forget the name because it was long but I knew her on the blog and oops..
Mara it's so funny cos of a certain someone could've been killed
Huh. Interesting. *spins out then comes back*
*Jokes* You're too full of yourself.
Yay thanks Flora! *hugs*
*skips around*
FLOWER POWER
#ChaseForBook9
Flower power makes me think of the Powerpuff Girls and I don't know why...
Congrats, Mara!
Bye Your Majesty!
*shocked face*
Only when I'm around you.
But then again.
*disapears*
Only 100 comments until we max out... What happens next?
Yeah. A certain someone...
Heh heh.
#ChaseForBook9
Oh dear Lord...
I do hope he knows I'm dating Trip
I'm sorry for what I said yesterday.I'm a horrible, selfish, inconsiderate person and I know that. I'm like that most of the time.. I just worry a lot.. About every thing, really. I'll try harder this time.
I don't, but FYI.. I wasn't hitting on you.
Anyone wanna dance? I kinda missed the whole ball...
*rolls her eyes* That's a surprise- to find you not hitting on something. I swear you've come on to a tree- it wouldn't surprise me. *nudges him* I joke. Kinda.
*sits beside a tree*
So can I have yo numba?
*gently shoves Flame at Cassidy* Goooo be freeeee
And Adra, I've only been with /four/ people on this blog.
Two were serious, the other two were.. Flings.
Well we probably keep goibg to the next post unless a certain author can get on
I /am/ free.
*flies away into the sunset*
Oh my god did you just leave
If you did I am so killing you
Loki doki Grand Mage Kerias, thanks.
*begins to hum 'I'm Free' by Bryan Adams*
*taps to beat*
Me? No?
I might be leaving but you don't know that.
I just hope you won't /miss/ me too much.
Am I leaving? I could be...
I believe I can flyyyyyy
*jumps off a table*
*falls on the ground again*
DAMMIT PETER
My heart warmed as you called me by my full title!
*lols at adra*
NO!
*pulls him back* You aren't leaving!
I swear to God I will kill you
You are all so weird. It's Speckletacular. ^_^
I have missed the Blogland...
*whips out frying pan and smacks Flame* No. Leaving.
*bows* Why, how could I not have addressed you by your title, Grand Mage? It would be disrespectful. And it is a rawRsome¡ title btw...
I have rope somewhere if we need it! *grins*
Thank you! You are the first person to actually think that (even Derek wont address me as Elder Kerias and he was the one who told me I was an Elder)
Yes that would be hilarious
Oh my gosh. My friends are so weird.. They're bringing up Kyily again. -_-
I guess everyone must think of you as a good friend if they don't address you by your title. Not a bad thing :)
Hello willow and Cass.
Cass, im guessing you're Scottish?
*leaves room*
*skips back, rope in hand*
I keep some in my carriage. C:
Hey Ed.
True that xD i think it NJ goes on Saturday to th signing I'll ask her to introduce me as Elder Kerias and see what he does probably will just laugh. I'll make him address me by my full tittle one of these days!!!
Zaffy must depart now to return later by noon for me
Greetings! *bows*
Indeed, Gemma :) Haha.

@Gemma I met him in Edinburgh in 2011 and 2013. I didn't know he was in Glasgow that year :( You live near Glasgow then?
No, let's not go there. Not for a while- people still haven't got the book.
It's in April, I think..
And so?

#ChaseForBook9
I went to the Glasgow comic con in july but it was rubbish... the venue was too small and crowded, there was hardly anything to buy, hardly any people cosplaying, it was BOILING and just overall disappointing.
The Collectormania at braehead was way better, ive went to it 2 years in a row, I would highly recommend it, way better than the comic con.
Im setting high exexpectations for the SECC one.
HEY GEMMA! :)
#ChaseForBookNine
TELL ME MORE TELL ME MORE
Does he have a car
#ChaseForBook9
Gtg now. I'll be back later. BYE!
#ChaseForBook9
And Cass, yes I will see you there :) im still wondering what to cosplay as... oh btw, the tickets you buy online you have to print off and you get early entry.
*Skids across floor on punch.* *hits wall* *slides and stops beside Star* Falling is half the fun! ;)
*hugs star* hiyaaa
500000
