AN: Based off the chapter in TDOTL when Skul wants to hug everyone. NO SPOILERS! Only spoiler is hugging. Trust me! I would never spoil anything for you guys. I like you.

Skulduggery, China

I'm offended that the black Cleaver didn't want a hug from me. I'm a very good hugger

Are you now?

I am. Ask Valkyrie

I can't.

Oh but you will soon! I'm going to hug her the next time I see her

As is expected

At least she'll want to be hugged unlike Stephanie

Stephanie wouldn't except your hug either?

No! No one wants a hug from me!

They probably think your going to hurt them

Why would I?

You haven't been in the best mood recently. Everyone assumes your angry

I am angry

I'm offended you didn't offer me a hug

I'm only giving hugs to people who need them. Do you need a hug?

Maybe

No you don't

I really don't. I just wanted an opportunity to turn down a hug from you as well

I asked Dexter as well! And he offered to kiss me. I'm not ready for that kind of commitment

Did he let you hug him at least?

No! He said only kisses but, as I've already said, I'm not ready for a relationship right now. I must focus on bringing back Valkyrie. I'll kiss him after.

I'm sure Valkyrie would love that

Should I kiss her instead?

I wouldn't know

I'm terribly out of practice. They'd both mock me

Why would they do such a thing?

Because they're rude

Ah, yes, because you're always polite

I am! I offered people hugs today!

As you keep saying

No one hugged me. I'm going to have to start taking them by force!

I'm sure Clarabelle would love to hug you

I can't hug her

Why not

Her hairs weird

So?

China, you know I despise weird hair

It's not that weird

Yes, it is! It used to be blue! Now it's green! Who goes from blue to green? Crazy people, that's who!

And are you not crazy yourself?

No, I'm insane. There's a difference

Could you tell me the difference?

Sure

Are you going to tell me?

Yes

*sighs* when?

I don't know yet. Maybe tomorrow. No, I'll be busy tomorrow

Doing what?

A little bit of crime. What else would I be doing?

Your job? That would make my job so much easier

It would, wouldn't it? But I can't do that

Why not?

As you stated before, this job gives you wrinkles and that amuses me

Your terrible

I am indeed... Do you want a hug now?

...yes

AN: so I needed a break from reading the new book I got in the mail which is the only reason I updated today. I'm in a very good mood. I haven't finished the book and please those of you who have finished it don't spoil anything for me! I spoiled a certain scene towards the end that killed me with mushy feels. I am terrible to myself.
I'm not sure I mentioned that when I'm in the middle of reading these books I go a bit insane and I start feeling like Skulduggery and I start talking weird. It's great and by great I mean terrible. Or do I?

Sebastian: Your sentence made perfect sense. I, on the other hand, do not. But Skulduggery probably has some secret thing set up to where when he dies the Bentley gets hidden somewhere using magic and such.
Skyla: OH NO I FORGOT ABOUT HAROLD! SKULDUGGERY'S GOING TO KILL ME! And OMG yes I will do that. That will be beautiful! I ship it. *googles car* now I really ship it. That car is beautiful. In other news I got my book so your all alone. Unless you got yours.
