History WMG / SkulduggeryPleasant

* Calling it now. All things considered, it seems inevitable.

* Or hell, maybe just to [[spoiler: [[ToThePain end his constant agony]] ]]

* Either [[spoiler:stopping the Accelerator]], or TakingTheBullet for [[spoiler: Saracen or Dexter]]

*** Not yet. She'll become more human as the book progresses.

*** Where does it say that? I think that it'll actually be Skulduggery or Valkyrie who gives it--Skulduggery out of [[spoiler: guilt from killing Darquesse/Valkyrie]], or Valkyrie out of [[spoiler: [[TheAtoner guilt]] from being Darquesse.]]

** Even though it's made perfectly clear in Last Stand of Dead Men [[spoiler: that she does not have a soul]]?

* [[MeaningfulRename Stephanie]] will be the one to perform a HeroicSacrifice. Because it requires a "soul", willingly given.

**** The troper above could be correct. In 'Last Stand Of Dead Men', Cassandra says that [[spoiler: Valkyrie gets a new boyfriend. Also, when her latest vision is shown, Darquesse kills Skulduggery and when he's all seperated, she grabs his skull and kisses it.Think what you want of that.]] But then again, seeing how [[spoiler: Fletcher's girlfriend tries to kill him, he and Valkyrie might get back together.]]

** [[poiler: Mevolent of this dimension]] is dead. WordOfGod.

** [[Mevolent of this dimension]] is dead. WordOfGod.

** Darquess gone back in time.
** Darquess as a Time Lord.

[[WMG: The Man with the Golden Eyes is [[spoiler: Mevolent.]]

[[WMG: The Man with the Golden Eyes is [[spoiler: Mevolent]].

* Actually, I think that Skullduggery and Valkrie will survive Ghastly's mum's vision: my theory is it was actually of Skulduggery's and Valkrie's /reflections/ dying! I've had the Reflection=Darquesse theory since we first learned Valkrie's true name was Darquesse, and reading the latest book gave me the idea [[spoiler:that the Darquesse!reflection wants everyone to be reflections, and kill all of the fleshies. I assume the Darquesse!reflection finds some way to make a Skul-flection as a part of this]].

* Does anyone else see crossover potential here?

* [[spoiler: with the reflection set to try and take over her life, it's plausible she might be forced to kill it, and so leave behind a corpse indistinguishable from her own.]] add some reason why she cannot go back to her family, like say somebody out to kill her for revenge, and you have a rather poignant twist.

* The vision in Dark Days is rather ambiguous; we only see shadows of the person destroying the world, and we have to take Finbar's word that it's [[spoiler: Darquesse]]. [[spoiler: Darquesse]] also said at least once that she doesn't want to destroy the world(at the end of the Kingdom of the Wicked). That same book also has Skulduggery saying how unreliable Sensitives are.

[[WMG: Skulduggery [[spoiler: knew what the Passage entailed and wanted to break down the barriers between life and death to see his wife and son again.]]]]

* Okay, so for this thing to work, something horrible must happen to [[spoiler: Valkyrie.]] Let's say [[spoiler: Skulduggery and her parents are killed by the book's BigBad, causing her to HulkOut into Darquesse, now with nothing to stop her.]] The next few chapters is seen from for example Ghastly's, Fletcher's, even foes such as [[PsychoForHire Billy-Ray Sanguine]] and [[ButtMonkey Vaurien Scapegrace's]] view, as they all work to stop [[spoiler: Valkyrie!Darquesse]], only to get [[CurbStompBattle curb-stomped immediately]]. The last chapter in the series will be [[spoiler: from the reflection's perspective, as it sneaks up behind Darquesse, using some new trick she learned to kill her once and for all.]] The conclusion of the series will be [[spoiler: the reflection saying something like "...I told you I was the only Stephanie." before picking up Alice to feed her.]]

[[WMG: The reflection [[spoiler: will succeed killing Valkyrie, but it'll be a BittersweetEnding.]]]]
