@Dugglyn, that's true, I suppose. It'll never be like the grand old days of yore though, when the elves forced Derek to write the blog and the comments were overflowing with open ended roleplay and excitement.
And I'm skeptical that we'll even get more blog posts, despite the new book coming out. But you're right, I'm not being very optimistic I suppose, I do apologise.
I suppose the old system of waiting until the first page filled up with comments from random people isn't very practical any more. Still, I haven't posted on one of them for a long time, it probably wouldn't be good for my health or something.
*Hugs Inkles*
*Hugs Adru*
So, new book, eh? I'm excited. I just hope Derek doesn't write anything but Skulduggery for the rest of his life. I love it, I really do, but I thought Demon Road was so good. I'd like to see what else he can do.
As for the blog, I don't really feel that it'll ever stop existing in some form or another. I'm still in contact with lots of people from it, even if we don't often actually come on, especially me.
But I still ghost and come back. I doubt I'll ever stop, so long as it's still hosted.
I've spent years saying the same as you, Trip,(the blog will never die out, it just has lulls), but honestly I've never seen it this dead in the past erm *counts* four and a half years I've been here. It is pretty damn dead. But yeah, I still talk to bloglajdians off the blog. Maybe that's the problem. XD We all talk to each other yonder instead of talking here.
I agree, though, that this is pretty much as dead as it's ever been. I doubt it'll get any better. The culture on the internet has kind of shifted away from this sort of thing. I mean more that the friendships and memories will go on. Not to mention the strange siren song I get every now and then, just to check on things. Maybe if we turned into more of a thing where you leave a message for everyone to read and then come back in a couple of days to see their responses. A more long form kind of thing.
That's a good point I guess. Twitter also killed the blog a little bit. Derek use to come on the blog like once each week or so, post a general update on what he was doing.
And he would apologise if we didn't hear from him for two weeks haha! He'd say "I'm working really hard, when I finish the new book I'll blog more often". Now it's just a bunch of twitter updates.
I'm glad he's using something where people can talk to him though, even if the blog has suffered a bit because of it.
Yeah, very true. I don't particularly mind either, because summer is gross :P But it'd be nice if I was on holidays and curled up reading books, not trekking through the cold to go to classes!
Well, they probably would be if I actually went to most of them. Honestly I hate going, can't wait for this year to be over! Yeah it's probably my fault though haha.
You know. I had something unique happen today. I'm an admin on Facebook for a Harry Potter group and as staff we're in all House chats except Gryffindor, so in Slytherin chat we got talking. And books we read came up. I said oh I loved SP and of the entire 5 or 6 of us on, one person knew it and we talked about the 10th book coming. So we got on to who we liked and I of course said I love Ravel. It felt awesome to talk about SP again!
I was in Atlantic City and I almost emailed you but I forgot, but you normally go to Seaside Heights, right? I couldn't quite remember. We're on LBI now though :)
Guhhh, that sneaky fox is always trying to swipe our stuff. When you see swiper, say: SOBAKU NO OREWAN STANDO DO DAI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DORA DORA DORA DORA DORA DORA DORA DORA DORA DORA DORA DORA!!!
... thank you so much! Skullduggery is my god! \'O'/ so happy!!!!!!! Also a question fer Derek + the other fans is there any romantic bond between Val and Skullduggery
Derek. Please mention the power of Saracan Rue. I mean Ravel was the biggest god damw traitor and has knowen his power while we are faithful readers and have no idea.

I dunno.
So how's you been?

Yeah, Twitter was always going to be the slow death of the blog, but it is good that he still interacts, you're right.
I think the old girl still has some milage in her yet, though.
@Trip: *nods*
@Matex: *nods*
I been good, thanks. Summer holidays yaaaaay.
You?
*looks slowly in star's direction*
*makes one very firm and concise nod*
(*raises an eyebrow at Matty*)
@Matex: XD
*awkward nodding concludes*
Jai jai!! *waves frantically*
(Hi xD How are you?)
*shakes head*
Healthy, happy, on holiday. I'm hitting most of my quotas, so hopefully the overseers won't pick me.
Hey Silente. How's it going?
(It's going reasonably well thanks, glad to hear it's not going so bad with you either.)
I'm not great, been unwell, back to chronic fatigue again, I think. Suppose to be going in for a blood test this week to find out... yay.
(I'd ask about you but Trip beat me to it :P )
Oh man sounds like everyone is on holidays. I'm jealous! Several weeks into the second semester here. I have a bunch of exams next week :/
(@Matty well it is probably your winter(ish) season right now right? We're on our summer holidays xD)
Yeah, very true. I don't particularly mind either, because summer is gross :P
But it'd be nice if I was on holidays and curled up reading books, not trekking through the cold to go to classes!
(Ah, don't fret. You know those classes will probably be worth it eventually :P
Also I'm sorry to hear about the chronic tiredness!)
Well, they probably would be if I actually went to most of them. Honestly I hate going, can't wait for this year to be over! Yeah it's probably my fault though haha.
What's everyone doing for their summer holidays?
(Hey, what have I told you about skipping!
Trying to motivate myself to do college homework xD)
I dunno. Did you tell me that it's fun and I should do it more often?
Oh you have homework over the holidays? That's lame!
[Throws refried bananas at anyone who would like one. Throws some just to the left of people who don't really want them.]
(I told you it's bad and to go to classes >_<
Yeah I have some bridging tasks and stuff.
*looks at the refried banana*
*inches away*)
Refried bananas?
*moves slowly away from the strange object*
Blegh, that advice sucks though. Classes are horrible! :P
Oh man that's terrible. We don't get any homework over the summer break haha, uni life.
The best advice always sucks, but then again, so does the worst.
Probably best not to waste all of that money though.
That's some good advice you got there Trip :P
Or is it bad advice? *Spoopy jazz hands*
*2spoopy5me skeletons appear*
*bursts in through the virtual reality door.*
What-up bitches?
Derek doesn't like role playing. That's why he doesn't come here anymore.
I was having a lot of fun on the cruise
I want to just
I'm so frustrated
I'm an angry person as is, but I'm just
I literally almost jumped off the bow today.
( fucking everything is going wrong.
-just keep swimming- ugh )
(+pops in* hello people )
(*pops out of a rabbit hole*)
*hugs Adra*
Hey Inkles.
(TRIP HOW IS YOU?)
Tresha: *looks up at him, smiling*
We're going to save them, aren't we?
Michael: *covers his ears to block out that damn familiar voice*
*honestly he isn't hidden well, he's just sat very obviously behind another dumpster*
Flauros: *smiles* yes we are
Al: *mock whimpers* I its getting dark.. I'm scared
Tresha: Good.
*smiles up at him*
You really don't have to brand yourself Flauros.
Michael: *cant hear her, he's covering his ears*
*well he can but he's pretending he cant*
Flauros: *looks at her in the eyes* I want to
Al: please c come out... *searches for hkm*
Tresha: *kisses him gently*
Even though you don't have to?
Michael: *stays as still as he can to ignore her pleading*
*can feel his heart trying to break - which is very confusing*
Flauros: *kisses* you're being branded and I will do it with you
Al: *finds him *
Tresha: *smiles*
I love you
Michael: *squints an eye up at her*
*considers running*
H-hi..
*jumps up quickly, trying to run past her*
Friend: Wait My room is on the fourth floor. That means a lot of stairs.
Other friend on same floor: We're all going to have really great butts.
(Well I mean silver lining xD)
