apparently I’m a YouTube gamer

@rae lol that’s scary but entertaining

@whalekeeper

Ellis

As Remington scurried away to get water, Ellis chatted to Callum as he led him outside. While not as loud as Remington, Ellis did very much enjoy talking.

“No need to be embarrassed. I do the same thing from time to time. Sort of. When I get visions I tend to fall over. I don’t go faint, I just can’t see or feel my s…[Read more]

@whalekeeper Sure that sounds great! I will probably have the same goal as before. And don’t worry about the long break. I think we both needed it, or at least I did. What’s your word count goal?

@theshadow

Huntress

The tunnel stretched out in front of us. This one was carved by something, or someone, not a mere animal like the one that’d taken Rosalind. Whether that someone was still alive was a question I didn’t exactly want to think about right now.

I checked out the book on the table. It was old, its cover worn but probably not as…[Read more]

@loopylin yesss 17 sounds awesome

@whalekeeper @keilah-h @rae

I vote we do 17 sometime soon because that sounds like it could give Mel a rest, but anything is good with me. Or we could combine them.

Mel

Mel sniffled a bit, staring at the ground in embarrassment. She shuffled her feet and then looked up at Lucy again, about to say something else, when she suddenly stopped. She…[Read more]

@whalekeeper Huntress has a pair of pistols I think. Sniper gave up his rifle of course but might still have a smaller gun on him, idk.

Not sure what Soldier has. A shotgun and/or rocket launcher is his typical weapon but that would be pretty obvious to everyone else. He might just be using plain old claws.

@whalekeeper

i love those they’re amazing

For funsies and to keep the lore consistent

Rallascant

“…I’ll try to help as I can.”

Rallascant’s rabbit ears perked up as he heard the cursed word. Technically, he was there already. Summoned. He was under no obligation to actually show himself. He sniffed at the air and then dug up another dandelion root to nibble on. He watched things unf…[Read more]

Not that we need this at the moment, but here’s some possible future conflict ideas because I’m in a brainstormy mood.

1. The group finds Mel’s door back home and they realize it won’t help anyone else get home except her (Mel and Lucy still think they’re from the same world)
2. The group finds the giant’s garden
3. The basilisk goes hunting again

@whalekeeper @rae @keilah-h

Mel
Mel stopped trying to hold it in and cried quietly into Lucy’s shoulder. She couldn’t tell if the grown-ups had obeyed Lucy’s command to close their eyes, but she felt comforted by the idea. Lucy squeezed a bit tighter. This was better than stinky crow feathers.
After a couple minutes which felt much longer, her…[Read more]

It’s probably a good thing that Rallascant doesn’t actually know what guns are

Were all little girls so confusing? How can you break down and not know why?

Gabriel’s response is just as funny as I thought it would be lol

@loopylin @rae @whalekeeper

Huntress

Mel hid her face in her hands, looking very stressed.

Sniper appeared tense, as if he thought it was his fault she were upset. He stood up and backed away as Gabriel asked Mel what was wrong, leaping up to sit on a rock and watch where he couldn’t interfere.

I sat down next to him. “I don’t think she’s…[Read more]

@loopylin nahhh you’re good lol

@keilah-h I’m so sorry she’s not paying attention. I love reading the backstory/worldbuilding stuff, but Mel is a very tired and overwhelmed neurodivergent seven year old who doesn’t know what to do atm. She would find it so cool any other time. @whalekeeper @rae I promise I’m not trying to write a dramatic scene, lol. She’s just a tired kid.…[Read more]

@loopylin

Sniper

She asked if my scales gave me powers, then trailed off tryin’ to pronounce my species’ name.

My tail flicked worriedly as I realized I’d made her start snifflin’. Gabriel tried his best to comfort her.

I kneeled down on the other side of her and curled my tail close to my legs, makin’ myself smaller and hopefully less…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Ellis

Ellis smiled at Remington, using his nice smile instead of his natural one, which was all crooked to one side.

“Pleased to meet you. And you as well… Callum? I think I heard?”

The boy made a sound that could have meant anything. Ellis took it as confirmation.

“I think you could use some fresh air. Should we step out…[Read more]
