Yessss, I want silliness and whimsy! Do you have book recommendations???

Just tried to sort out a title for myself and lapsed into a poetic paragraph reflecting on my self-perceptions. What utter rot. XD I’m not so nice as I think myself. What an uncomfortable, shivery feeling that is.

I am chaos. I am quiet. An echo of sorts. I am that feeling you get when you sneak gummy worms into your dormmate’s sleeping bag. I am…

@koshka

That would be awesome! Idk when I’ll have time to read it exactly, but I will

I’m honestly a bit tired of dark stuff and stories that “deal with hard themes”. We need more silliness and whimsy. The real world is full of it. Maybe we should reflect it more in our writing.

@koshka

That sounds absolutely wonderful. I love whimsy. And fairies. Loving fairies was like my whole personality the first two thirds of my life. Please do share if you feel up to it.

The Local Amnesiac

Relatable

@koshka

I feel like “Rhymer” sounds like someone who does a lot of poetry?

Also I have no idea what age group my stories are for when I’m writing them, but I definitely have a few that feel like children’s books.

@whalekeeper

Yeah the plot was very lacking. It would be cool to see the characters developed more.

@loopylin

Yeah! I remember watching it when I was younger and being creeped out. It’s such a fun film. I kind of wish it got a show instead of a movie because it felt like it didn’t cover all the plot it wanted to.

@whalekeeper Oh I love that it’s perfect 🤍 I have 9 on dvd. I love the animation and general vibes.

@elishavet-pidyon

Ooo, those are a lot of nice synonyms

@loopylin

Okay thanks :] Have you ever watched 9? It’s an animated movie with puppet dolls living on post-apocalyptic Earth. A couple of them are twins and they’re basically archivists. That’s what I’m suddenly picturing.

@whalekeeper

I am absolutely willing to share my title with you

@ellette-giselle

seeing as I am Lilly one of the few on here who actually owns swords and daggers…

bold assumption

@whalekeeper

Secondary Archivist? Other options could be: annalist (chronicler), scribe, registrar, recorder, chronologer, and custodian of records, according to google.

Seeing as how I’m archiving Character Castle right now, the only title I can think of is The Other Archivist – but I don’t know if Loops wants to share the title. Otherwise I can’t think of what I’d be.

@keilah-h

This is a splendid idea!

Let’s see what the rabble decide. My two cents are “Dragon Warden” or “Serpent Scholar”.

@ellette-giselle

I do technically have a dagger, but your point stands.

You are…. The Bladed Bird Master. Or maybe the Madam of Byrds and Blades. Or in a nod to Hobbiton (since we are a “Rivendell”): Postmistress (acting).

We could probably fit in something like “Second Watch” or “Keeper of the Armory”.

@whalekeeper @grcr @ellette-giselle @mineralizedwritings

Well, I was going to wait until I had @Power‘s Cactushead done, but as that will take a bit since I’m also starting some commissioned work, (Or trying to…) I’ll go ahead and post something else for the Circle.

Behold, a cat I doodled last Saturday:

@ellette-giselle

Welp. Ain’t that disturbing. Lol.

You did have the short lived title of resident psychopath, but of course as you’re not actually more crazy than any of us, it’s dwindled. ;D

I’m not sure what your trusty messenger pigeons think about you having dual duties, but hey, if it works…

And of course, if anyone actually wants to get a new title we could do that too. Especially as these newer titles are actually coming with duties attached.
