Eeeeek! I like this. It makes a lot of sense.

*enthusiastic nods*

@whalekeeper

haha, well, I am a lover of well done death scenes. Especially if the characters and author is a Believer, otherwise it’s a little depressing.

hmmm, well, I just can’t stand cheesy rescue/escape scenes.

uh… let’s see.
Faramir. Don’t know if you’ve read LOTR, but his rescue and recovery makes sense. Gandalf saved him, and Pippin…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

If I remember right, he has long experience breaking out of jail, and so somehow lifts the bolt with a length of cord. Or something. I think your theory is entirely possible. It is the Mousethief, after all. XD

It’s been a while since I read it too.

Lol. And I just jump in talking about Knights and death ravens while the conversation is leaning toward intergalactic elves.  This is what makes KP what it is.

*Poof of random glitter*

@ellette-giselle @ducktater

That’s true! Like in Mossflower, where the one mousethief just escapes. Hilarious yes, but dreadfully convenient. One can still save One’s character, but it needs to fit the rules.

Of course, to mix stuff up you can always make a master prison that has a weakness that both the good guys and the bad guys exploit. L…[Read more]

Rory 

Rory stopped sorting the bolts and screws and looked up at Leo. “Why? What happened?” For some reason he had sensed something familiar in this young man. He pushed off the couch and slid to a sitting position on the floor next to Leo. “Ever since I first met you… you seemed to me like a soldier. What are you doing down here?” h…[Read more]

@theducktator

Don’t. Get. Me. Started.
I am the person who is furious at the end of a book when my favorite character doesn’t die!! Why? Because the author cheated to save him! The mastermind villain makes a “mistake”. The unbreakable jail cell has a weakness no one who has been trying to break out for the last hundred years has discove…[Read more]

@theducktator   @koshka

I love that boy more than either of you will ever know. I love him desperately. In fact, I only ever loved Prince Friedrich, Leon, and Julian as much as him. (Though I do really adore the MCs for CR)

it’s because I love him so much that terrible things happen. He is courageous and strong,(even though it doesn’t seem…[Read more]

@highscribeofaetherium

YIPPY!!! I love it!! Thank you so much!!
you did a great job!

@theducktator

dying is by far not the worst thing that can happen. (Or does happen to him) 

@liberty

yes I know!!!
we just crossed the boarder and ate three hours away from home! I can’t wait!!

@hybridlore

oh goodness no! I wasn’t upset at all.
honestly, I won’t get upset unless you insult a family member. I might be hurt if you said something really mean to me, but my anger only gets aroused in defense of my clan. 😉

@loopylin
lol. Me too!!

@koshka

ouch!! I’m not that mean to him.
🤣

Rory 

Rory began dropping all of the screws in a bucket, but his eyes constantly returned to Leo’s face as the older boy talked.
“what sort of things did you design?” He asked, his voice still quiet with hesitant caution.

@koshka

Rory 

Rory looked up, interested. And for once, he didn’t keep it in check. “Did you ever use a laser welder?”

@koshka

Rory

Rory gave Leo a cautious smile and took the screw. He looked it over, feeling the ribbed sides. “These are to hold things together, aren’t they?”

@whalekeeper

gotcha!

@koshka
I have no idea!!

they probably would have just had emotional breakdowns together. 😂

@koshka

Rory 

The gentleness in Leo’s voice and look reached out and touched Rory. He could feel himself relaxing, despite his paranoia.
he watched the older boy reading through a list of things to do. I’m not your new captain, or comanding officer.

Rory has never heard anyone over him say something like that, and the words continued to play…[Read more]

@theducktator

I used to write everything on paper, and I did have paper but I used it all for drawing while we were away, and all I have left is my prayer journal and I’m not going to write stories in that. 😉

I have a license and I still don’t have a phone. They’re not all they’re cracked up to be. Mostly time eating temptation. &#x1f64…[Read more]

@hybridlore @theducktator

I don’t own a phone. Yes, I’m an adult, but I hate phones. Phones are only good for calling friends and listening to music. And they aren’t worth the money when I can use the house phone for one and the laptop for the other.

anyhow, I’m using my mom’s phone. I don’t have my current novel on here and I’m not just goin…[Read more]
