      If I am not mistaken, that is 32 planks. You girls are insane. I bet you made some telepathic decision to write all those words in the same two days, am I right? AMIRIGHT?!?

      *Takes a moment to regain composure*

      That’s at least a plank every half hour… *Pulls out calculator to schedule my planks for two days* And I WILL do them.

        They. Have. Met.

        Felicity and Lois is a thing guys, you can’t convince me this isn’t a meet-cute, they are a THING. Their ship name is Felois, and oh my goodness Lois does not know how hard he is going to fall for her. It’s perfect.

        Also I think this helped me fix my writing block so thank you

        🙃

        Also also I made a new music playlist for this Fel and Lois project that I really love that I could share in the music topic tomorrow, but I should probably finally go to sleep now goodnight

          Okay, how about…… draw Steve Rogers aka Captain America.It’s the first thing that came to mind and the image killed me.

                How are the 32 planks going?

                *stacks my papers of 500 more words*

                  I’ll have you know that I just wrote…

                  *Counts*

                  0 words in any of my WIPs. That’s right, zero.

                  Go eat a cookie. Or ice cream. All those planks deserve it.

                  As for me, I have a homework dragon to slay.

                        That dragon is now glaring at me most reproachfully. I don’t think it likes my pencil’s jabbing.

                                @whalekeeper @loopylin About ship names….

                                Recently I’ve found there’s another way of titling ships. Rather than just combining the characters’ names, you can use one or two words that have an aspect of both their personalities or are related to them or their character arcs. This helps if the names combine into something really weird, or just for fun. It also works much better than name combo if you only want the characters to have a platonic relationship and just want to know when you’re talking about the two of them. However, it is a little harder to type and can be awkward, so it should probably be used sparingly.

                                 

                                For example, let’s pull a charrie Whaley will know from my database: Mundy, aka Sniper. I’m not the first person to design a character to ship him with…lol (guy’s pretty lonely in his canon ok??). One artist I saw paired him with her character Avian, or Seeker, whose job is aerial recon–hunting down enemy team members and alerting her team to their position. They called the pairing “Target Practice” because that’s effectively what brings Seeker and Sniper together–she seeks out the enemies, and he kills them once she’s found them for him.

                                 

                                (Jaylen/Huntress–my character who I paired him with–and Sniper have largely the same dynamic, funny enough, except Huntress’s role has nothing to do with flying. But I’m not gonna steal that artist’s ship title. I’ll find my own. And no, there aren’t two characters fighting over the same guy, they would technically exist in entirely different universes.)

                                Where'd I get ya this time? The liver? The kidney? I'm runnin' outta places to put holes in ya.

                                  @keilah-h Cool! I like how creative the names can get. I’ve considered things like Ink Frost, but I’m still working on the story so maybe something better will come up as I’m writing it.
