Barnes

When Gabriel turned away, Barnes took it as a sign that he wasn’t totally enthusiastic about guard duty. She crossed one of her arms over her chest. “Alright, then.”

She took a couple steps down the next passage, and ignored the rattling sounds from the hedges. Little blue plants on the maze floor reached up to…[Read more]

Do I make up the culture surrounding the character if it doesn’t give that much information in the manuals? I’m trying to gauge how much set world there already is, and how much I’m allowed to make up.

The amount of options for items/spells/whatever is insane. I’m loving it. Now it’s time to design a warlock without any prior knowledge of the game and horribly underestimate the amount of information I need on a character sheet.

Tadaaaa, I got me some books!

”Correct about… what?’ Barnes looked around.

Ignoring her words, Cassius already lay on the ground as he had before. Soon he was quiet and resting peacefully. It was like nothing had happened.

As Leander settled down as well, Barnes stared off into the maze again and tried to tune out. Her fingers twinged at th…[Read more]

“Pardon me for asking – hm.” Barnes hesitated. She absently shook the cigarette box in her pocket. “I’m having trouble understanding the suddenness of this. Wouldn’t you already know this? Have you never thought about your childhood or your father before?”

Barnes

Suddenly Cassius burst again. His weight shifted on the ground beside Barnes as he slumped over. His voice trembled.

How was Barnes supposed to react? The kid had made so many random declarations that this one could be just as short-lived.

“If you really are nineteen,” She said slowly, “I’m sorry for you. But you…[Read more]

Ah, it’s adorable! I love the leaves and the way his hair is and the clean lines of the mouth. The details and proportions fit together perfectly. I’m very glad you posted it. 😁

@jonas

An accountability group like this would be great! Consistently writing large sections is not my strong point, lol. I have a fairly intense job this summer, but I’m still hoping to write in breaks, since I’m currently free of college.

I’m also not very comfortable with sharing much of my actual writing on an open forum like this.…[Read more]

@hybridlore

I should be available those first two dates. I won’t be the 7th. Ironically, it’s for a different zoom call. XD (intern stuff, not some rival group. 😉 )

@hybridlore I’m available the 24th and 31st, but I’m not sure about the 7th yet. I can do Saturday mornings, but afternoons are better for me since I’m 3 hours behind everyone. That would also give @mineralizedwritings the chance to join too if she wants to and is feeling up to it.

“You’re too young, and you seem against it anyway.” Barnes noted how Gabriel flinched when the cigarette burned. She put it down and crushed it on the stone. So much for a silent night watch. “How old are each of you?”

@theshadow

Previous page, second to last post.

@hybridlore

I think I’m available all of those days with the possible exception of the 31st. Saturday mornings still work for me, but afternoons would be better. I can spend more time on the call if I have time to complete my chores beforehand. XD

@rae

Have you ever given a charrie of yours a weird mannerism that you have yourself?

Generally speaking, I’m sure I have. I’m just not aware that they are weird mannerisms yet.

A few of my charries like to sleep in a fetal position, or curled up around a pushie or blanket. And Gabriel stretches similar to a cat. Mannerisms I sometimes hav…

“…I’m not smoking,” Barnes said. She still held it at arm’s length. “I only lit it for the scent.”

She glanced back at Cassius, then turned back to stare at the labyrinth passageways she guarded. The exposition about pleasure irked her, but she held her tongue. He meant well.

Barnes

“I don’t care. Whatever you like to do.” Barnes pulled out a box of cigarettes and lit one of them. Instead of taking a draw on it, she held it at a distance from them and let the smell waft through the air. “ Ah. If this bothers you, at least speak then.”

@rae

Great! The tube down my nose felt a little like an alien trying to take over my mind, and they fed me a tone of questionable green food. Next month, they want me to drink radioactive fluid. I low-key love hospital visits though because the smell of hospitals is so nostalgic.  I guess that’s not normal, but whatever. XD

Call planning peoples, will there be a May call?

@whalekeeper

Great!
