@jonas That music based magic system is so cool. I love the idea

@whalekeeper

Haha, I get what you mean. Sometimes I enjoy research, sometimes it’s overwhelming how much you DON’T KNOW about a subject. But I really appreciate all your help 🤗

Awesome! Thank you!!

@hybridlore

I’m not trying to steal the way you see everything, it’s just so interesting finding out how a real person with synesthesia would think about them 😅

Totally! I love going down the research rabbit hole to tell you the truth. I know some people despise that part of writing, but it’s just so fuuuun.

Also, purely curiosity, what color is…

You can judge or write, whichever you want.

@rae

No problemo, are you game to judge? :]

@whalekeeper

Awesome!! Thanks so much!

Also, purely curiosity, what color is the name Sara to you? Or Cole?

@hybridlore

Wow. I LOVE that description. Do you mind if I use it or something similar?

It’s all yours! Literally use anything you want, I don’t mind XD

@whalekeeper

Imagine if there was a pink fire. A combination of glowing orange and pale translucent pink. That’s what I associate hope with. :] 

Wow. I LOVE that description. Do you mind if I use it or something similar?

Thank you so much for answering all the questions! I will probably have more once I start writing. 😁

@keilah-h

Keilah is a watery green, like a piece of sea glass 🙂

make nameplates for your family or friends, like to hang on their walls or something, and each letter is the color you imagine for it.

Funny thing, our family sometimes divides things by colors for each kid. As a little girl, I suggested what each person’s color should be, and…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

I even wrote a ten-page research paper on the subject, so I’ve done the research dive myself and it is certainly complicated.

That’s long! 😅 Well great, that means you’re an expert xD

Can you imagine what a short film abot it would look like? 😄

That would be SO cool… and trippy 😂

Wow. Thank you so much—that was really cool to read.…[Read more]

@hybridlore

If you have time, I would LOVE to hear examples. Like, describing the things you see/feel/hear and what happens when you do.

Okay um… *Thinks about where to start*

So grapheme-color synesthesia is the most common type. I see letters and numbers with colors. Look at a letter, and use your imagination as hard as you can to picture the…[Read more]

@hybridlore

Oh my goodness, how did I not know that before?? I am so glad though. (You may be bombarded with questions in the near future. ;))

That’s fine with me! 😂 I even wrote a ten-page research paper on the subject, so I’ve done the research dive myself and it is certainly complicated.

I’m not sure what the proper names are for all of hers, (…

I don’t know some of those, but I will definitely be googling them asap. I’m not sure what the proper names are for all of hers, (this is still kind of an early stage of development haha) but she see…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

Look at the first post on this topic. It will explain everything.

Yay, people still want to do this!

@liberty

If you need extra details, check the first post of this topic written by Rae. She says 500 words requirement, no set maximum.

And yes, you post the story on here for people to read when the deadline hits. You do not read other people’s entries before you have written yours and posted it, that way the…[Read more]

@hybridlore

Yes, I do!

I have grapheme-color, month-to-color, spatial sequence, ordinal linguistic personification, a little sound-to-color, faint motion+touch-to-sound… Still figuring out that last one XD

And piano keys have colors too. That doesn’t even have a name, I think it’s an extension of grapheme-color.

If you need to ask questions…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Sounds really fun! I will see if I can whip up something 😊

I would love to wake up this topic again. I never participated but I wanted to.

Tagging extra people: @the_lost-journal @ellette-giselle @raxforge @liberty @theshadow @calyhuge

I’ll just give a new short story prompt. And here it is:

Tell the story of a scar.

You can use new settings/characters or use characters from your own WIP, as long as…[Read more]

Thanks!! No, sometimes I wish I did, though. It’s a really cool thing. Do you?
