Mini Skulduggery Pleasant One Shots

Droopy Mustashe

Valkyrie dodged a flaming hot fireball by inches as it went zooming past her face. She cursed Skulduggery under her breath and summoned lightning into her hands and flung it at the Vampling. The white energy collided with the Vamplings leg, and it fell to the ground, face planting onto the floor.

Skulduggery threw flames at the other Vampling and sent it flying into the Vampling that Valkyrie was fighting with a wave of air.

Valkyrie looked over at Skulduggery as he put his hat back onto his skull at an angle. She brushed herself off and wiped her bleeding lip, walking over to Skulduggery.

"I had that one under control." Valkyrie said.

"Sure you did. But if I hadn't intervened, then you would still be fighting it. You're welcome." He responded.

She rolled her eyes as they walked over to where the Bentley was parked. She slid into the passenger seat and buckled her seat belt before she was given her third lecture about seat belts and safety on the same day.

Skulduggery got into the drivers side and activated his faćade. Waxy skin flowed over his skull along with sandy blonde hair with a matching droopy moustache.

A droopy moustache.

Skulduggery started the car, and Valkyrie cleared her throat, getting his attention.

"Yes, Valkyrie?"

"You have a droopy moustache."

He tilted his head,"Really? You're not joking this time so that you make me get my hopes up and then tell me it's not there?"

She smiled,"Nope. It's right," She pointed to the moustache, "there."

"I think I know where a moustache is supposed to be Valkyrie."

He liked saying her name.

"Just making sure."

He started the car and drove off. His head tilted in an exited way. He was probably thinking about his droopy moustache.
