Ottoline
“Scared of learning to defend yourself?” Ellis asked. Ottoline almost laughed. Instead, a silent tear fell down her cheek as she watched the birds flit about outside.
“No,” she said softly. “What if I can’t protect the people I care about? I’m scared that-that they were right, that I am nothing, that I deserved everything they did to me.” she wiped a tear away. “How can they be wrong when I can’t even look at a sword? I’m weak, I’m insignificant, I’m worthless.”

LEFSE FOREVER!!!!!! <333November 19, 2023 at 2:36 pm #165423Is it just me, or do you guys get nervous when you realize you’ve been talking to and imagining someone as about your age, and discover they’re soooo much older?

November 19, 2023 at 2:38 pm #165424I think it would be really neat to have a first person POV, I personally enjoy reading those types of books sometimes, but I can’t write it well.

November 19, 2023 at 2:39 pm #165425I don’t talk to ppl in person much, and I don’t really care if it’s online, so I can’t say I’ve experienced that.
Any noun can become a verb if you don't care enough.

“What if I can’t protect the people I care about? …I’m weak, I’m insignificant, I’m worthless.”
Ellis winced. Thoughts flashed through his mind.
Dalaman. Dead.
Dalton. Captured.
His world in shambles.
He had thought the words Ottoline now spoke aloud. He had failed. And what had he done? He had gone on. Despite being broken. But how long could he go on? How long until he shattered?
“I…”
He didn’t know what to say to her. How could he comfort her when he had never answered those questions for himself?

📚 Appreciator of BooksNovember 19, 2023 at 2:43 pm #165428In person, I usually can guess someone’s age and treat them accordingly, but online…I feel really foolish when I discover they’re older.
Like I just discovered @jonas was born in 2006, I’m fourteen, and somehow I’ve always imagined him being that age to (if you take offense, Jonas, none meant and I apologize).

“I…” Ellis paused.
“I’m sorry,” Ottoline said, “I shouldn’t have-I didn’t mean to bring it down…”

LEFSE FOREVER!!!!!! <333November 19, 2023 at 2:46 pm #165431Is the setting still currently the dining hall or has everyone moved on to something else? Just wondering. I think I actually have a few minutes to write something.

November 19, 2023 at 2:46 pm #165432Oh…I kind of always knew XD When I talk to someone on KP I always check their profile bc I’m curious if we’re the same age or not.
