@liberty

Thank you for sharing! That’s awful that the contract was broken like that. I’ll be glad to help out in what ways I can.

@whalekeeper

Here. I’ll move him into the hall.

Ari

Mother, you seem to show great concern for my well-being. Know that I am currently breathing. —Your son, Ari

He folded the note, creasing the edges to crisp sharpness. His archer’s ring left an odd wing shape in the blob of plain beeswax he spilled as a seal.

The runner came to attention…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Yes! I would love interaction. You also can move Ari around if needed. Get him in trouble. Whatever.

@ellette-giselle

I love this so much. Sorry I didn’t reply before now. Work has been insane. For a week. I’m typing this up on my lunch break.

I’m thinking of doing a Men of Iron move with Wilhelm’s battle reflexes… It would be a completely different approach than typical modern fencing based on getting points.

Wilhelm

His opponent was…[Read more]

@beth-torres

I’m glad the others had timely responses for you! I just wanted to say I have impulses to fast fiction specifically. Once, I fasted all writing for a month, although I did not do it in an entirely beneficial way. Writing non-fiction/journaling/poetry is incredibly powerful for one’s personal Spiritual life. The thing that makes me…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

I actually might be able to make this one. *cue muted cheering*

@whalekeeper

I’m very interested. I’m also on a crazy work schedule, so I’ll do my best to pop in to whenever y’all figure it out.

It is, but we’re all pretty awkward tbh. :] We’ve done this before and I can safely say the rest of us will not care if you have vocal ticks or don’t know how to carry a conversation.

This is almost painfully valid. 🤣

Really though, we’re a great group to meet with. We don’t mind if you say half your sentences inside-out (like um, me) or don’t…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Yessss!

My work schedule is about to change around a lot, so I’m not sure exactly what will work. (I’m working at a campground and we’re entering camp season.) Around 3-4 pm would probably be best/closest to possible. After this next week I’m not sure if it will return to it’s prior schedule (free after 5) or do something else wild…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Eek! Lol.

Wilhelm

He had been on the verge of telling Wolfgang that he wouldn’t aim for his sword – Wilhelm’s target would always be his opponent, not a weapon – when the boy vanished.

That door had a rough time of it that night. Wolfgang’s reentry rattled the cups left on their table.

“En garde!” Cried the madcap creature as…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I’m wondering who is going to win this….

Wilhelm

He was in the middle of fitting his sheild onto his left arm. He kept his gaze on his work, but his eyebrows were rising into his hair. They were more trouble to keep in order than either his sword or his shield.

“Heavy weapons prepare us for pitched battle. Strength must be…[Read more]

@loopylin

Aww. I love him. He looks like a slightly snarky sweet heart with a big destiny.

I would be up for a writing call. XD

@godlyfantasy12

Oh man, that’s rough. I hate it when I want to write but can’t (or the evil nemesis, needing to write, but not wanting to).

As for when words won’t word…I don’t know if any of this will apply or be helpful, but, since I’ve always struggled to get words on a page, I’ve had to learn methods to get myself into writing. Sp…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Hehe.

By the way, his arming sword is a little under a yard long. His great sword is probably five feet, a precursor to the Zweihänder sword if he was in our world.

Wilhelm

“So instead you use flimsy weapons? I don’t see the wisdom of that. What about glaves and halberds? But nevermind. I’ve another trainer here somewhere.”…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

I don’t have much advice, being in a similar situation myself. However, the thing that helps me the mostis just talking through plot holes and concepts. If you don’t have someone who can be a sounding board for you (in “real” life), I think most of us KeePers would be happy to be that. It’s nice to hear other opinions at the…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Lol. He might need to learn to notice details if he’s going to lead a rebellion.

Also don’t remember if they already talked about family. Maybe I need to keep better track of details.

I kind of spoke for Wolfgang, but I tried to write it so you could change his lines as you like.

Wilhelm

“Reinhard is…?” Wilhelm looked back…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I’m amused that Wolfgang hasn’t connected the dots, especially considering Wilhelm’s 11th cent clothing, rooms, and culture. XD I know he thinks it’s impossible, but something should be tickling his subconscious by now.

Wilhelm

Either this boy was confused or Wilhelm was. Or perhaps both. The idea that knights were antiquated…[Read more]
