#skulduggery pleasant until the end

[whatwedointhecraft]

My favourite thing about Skulduggery Pleasant Until The End so far, is that Valkyrie gets excited upon hearing she could potentially punch the US President in the face.

She would so punch Trump if she was real

i’ve just finished reading skulduggery pleasant until the end and this is hands down funky town the best scene in the entirety of phase 2 for me

[magerightsyeah]

So I finally got around to finishing Until the End (spoilers under the cut)

One song to represent Skulduggery :

How should I color the phase two covers?

Hi, yes, I'm the crazy person that finished (!!) all the phase one covers and now I'm moving on to bigger better the next things. Here's my thought process so far: Overall, I'm gonna do what I did with Phase One: I'll keep the characters the same, in the same spots. - I'll keep the big color splashes in the backgrounds. Imo that's what makes these six books scream "WE'RE PHASE TWO" and set them apart from Phase One, which had a ton of empty space (which I fixed more or less)

- I'll improve anatomy and make the lighting make more sense

- I'll do two versions, one with a whiteish canvas and one with a blackish canvas

But! I don't like how inconsistent the colors are. Two books are black and white, two are monochrome-ish, one is in full color and one is like... kinda colored???

So. We're gonna pick ONE style, either black and white, fully colored or monochrome, and run with it.

Here are really bad tracings (yeah yeah) of your options for three of my options: you're just gonna have to use your imagination for the rest, I believe in you

Note: You're getting the splash and color accents/lighting no matter which one you pick because again, that's what makes the phase two covers stand out- they're vividly one color

POLL OPTIONS (and my personal tier list)

A - Muted colored characters with a vivid color splash

B - Fully color/shade the characters, and have a vivid color splash background

C - Fully color/shade the characters, and have a muted, darker color splash background

D - Black and White characters, vivid color splash

E - Monochrome characters to match the color splash

F - Keep the colors as they are on the original covers. (This is what I did for phase one: I will still improve on lighting and stuff, but if the cover is in black and white, mine will be in black and white.) (why tho?) Yes, this was copy pasted from reddit I'm too lazy to type everything again

‼️‼️‼️UNTIL THE END SPOILERS‼️‼️

DEREK LANDY I COULD ACTUALLY KILL YOU AT THIS POINT.

STOP MAKING SEXTER OFFICIALLY CANON AFTER SARACENS DEATH. IM GOING TO GO TO IRELAND AND EAT YOU.

[brainwrongbutalive]

Does anyone ever think about the absolute shock Dexter, Donegan and Gracious are subjected to in the final battle in Until the End?

Like they turn up and Skulduggery’s like:

Punch this guy. Oh and by the way, thats my grandson, who consumed my other grandchildren.

[incorrectspquotes]

[After Valkyrie becomes the Child and the Mother]

Never: Oh god, it’s Valkyrie Cain.

Omen, waving a little: Morning, Valkyrie!

Valkyrie, walking by: The world will be reduced to ash.

Never: Christ, she creeps me out.

I wish I was one of those people who thrives on the danger of leading a double life. You know, Bruce Wayne, Peter Parker, Hannah Montana.

y'know until the end is not at all my favourite book, i didn't hate it im just sorta neutral about it (but still somehow fULL OF FEELINGS lmao) but something about the scene where skug is fuckinf. just sorta possesses a guy and starts hyperventilating at one point? i know it's probably just "hey this fuck hasn't had to breathe in fuckiing ages, he can't remember how" but it made me feel some things ok shortness of breath and feeling light headed and just general "hEY CALM THE SHIT DOWN PLEASE" (/j) it's y'know jazz hands panic.mp4 i'm probably misinterpreting the scene but as i said f e e l i n g s

[theunconventionalking]

this is pretty cool! looks like it might be mostly separate from the books, so unlikely we'll see many main characters for now. hopefully if this does well, we'll get more set throughout the main series

WHOEVER BORROWED SKULDUGGERY PLEASANT HELL BREAKS LOOSE ON BORROWBOX READ IT QUICK AND RETURN IT PLEASE I NEED TO READ IT

[mythicalm0thii]

My thoughts on HBL !! I dislike Hell Breaks Loose. Anyways spoilers ahead!! Hell Breaks Loose started off strong for me by introducing the fact it was pre-Lord Vile, I don't know why I was so hyped for silly dead men adventures as Skul tried to recover from his crimes, but that was sad... I can't say it was Derek's fault, however. Anyways I liked the sisters, I guess, sister Stone was interesting. I don't know why Ghastly had a romance, however. Maybe its because I'm an avid Ghasduggery shipper, or maybe it's because I knew for a fact they wouldn't stay together until the events of the first book, but sure. I was actually warming up to all the characters, enjoying the book, and getting behind how dark and broody Skulduggery was. (Side note: IT IS COMPLETELY FINE TO NAME YOUR FUCKING WEAPONS!!!! SKUL WAS GRIEVING OK??? ALSO IT WAS A KICK-ASS NAME!!! I WOULD NAME MY WEAPONS!!! HE'S MENTALLY UNWELL, SURE, BUT NAMING HIS SWORD HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT!!!!) Anyways, then Valkyrie showed up. I don't need to even try and explain the sound of absolute anguish that came out of me at that moment. Like, I put down the book to sob. I was so excited for silly pre-Val adventures, and I was kind of sick of her.... (I'M SORRY BUT SHE'S SO OVERPOWERED AND I HATE THE TIME TRAVEL) So when she showed up, it completely ruined the entire book for me. Thanks Derek <3

I don't really remember what happened, I'll be honest. Something about the Hidden God? Guy gets sucked into portal, becomes OP? Anyways I want to talk about how Derek fucking ruined Lord Vile for me. WHY WAS HE HERE?? WHERE WAS ABYSSNIA?? WHY WASN'T HE WEARING ARMOUR??? HUH??? It was so confusing istg Lord Vile, to me, is Skulduggery's grief. The only reason he's scary is because he's just a guy in some armour. A man with enough power to level cities, yet nobody even knows the sound of his voice. SO WHEN HE SHOWED UP AS A GODDAMN SHADOW SKELETON-- I went apeshit. I cried, sobbed, even. YOU DON'T DO THAT. It literally destroyed all my thoughts on him as a character, and really watered him down. As well as reminding us that Skulduggery has this OP power that he doesn't fucking use. The Sexter kiss was like a sentence. It was the only motivation I had to finish this damned book. Oh yeah also new villain ig The end bit was kind of dry but ok I guess I liked Ghastly, and it was cool to get some lore on Skul and Ghast's past + HOPELESS !!!!!!! I felt my self sob every time they talked about Skulduggery getting better, but that soon faded out by the time Valkyrie arrived I'm simply going to take out the bits I liked for my own timeline in my head, like a crow pecking at a carcass, and discard the rest :3 All in all, 3/10. I thought it couldn't be as bad as UtE.
