Barnes

That was one way of naming. Barnes brushed off her shoulder pad as she marched onward, her brisk pace unbothered by the uprooted path underfoot.

“I am Barnes, the… well, private aficionado doesn’t cut it.” She walked quietly for a while before speaking more. “I am the lover.”

Oh, and eating spaghetti (or attempting to) when you hand can’t even grip the fork right without hurting a lot is quite the experience. Do not recommend.

Oh nooo XD

@the_lost-journal

Eh, it’s my own fault. I need to loosen my grip.

“You’re already irritated, I’ll wait. For now,” Gabriel let out a long, slow breath. “You know you’ve lost your mind when you ache to fight dangerous monsters. I’ve been doing this too long,” he mumbled under his breath. “Shall we find some?”

@the_lost-journal

I’m back, with aching hands because I made the mistake of gripping my oars really tight so now my hands are covered in blisters, so typing feels weird. Oh, and eating spaghetti (or attempting to) when you hand can’t even grip the fork right without hurting a lot is quite the experience. Do not recommend.

We’re all good…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings

It makes sense. I like dabbling in reading medical things from time to time, and it’s crazy how one little thing on top of another thing can cause a lot of serious problems.

Hope and pray you can get better and find the care you need 💜💜💜

Barnes

Barnes stared down her nose at the young man. When he finished speaking, she reached out her hand. “You have a ladybug on your shirt.”

Before he could reply, she picked off the bug and held it in the palm of her hand. It was brilliantly deep in color, just like the rest of the labyrinth. The only time she could rem…[Read more]

I probably should have given a little bio.

Name: Lucille Barnes

Description: A young woman (older than twenty, nearing thirty) with grayish blond hair and a tall build, at least six feet tall. She has a fair amount of natural strength. She wears a ruffled cream shirt and maroon jacket and pants. I’ve already mentioned that in what I’ve wro…[Read more]

“I don’t not care, if that’s what you’re suggesting,” Barnes said without looking to see who it was. “I’m not a nihilist.”

The walls rustled around them, and Barnes turned her head to scan the smaller hedges.

Some of the maze was smaller and narrower than the rest, like little mini gardens encased in the rest of t…[Read more]

Barnes

Barnes meandered along the edge of the labyrinth. She stood behind the rest of the crowd, almost as if she were part of the background. Her pale skin easily matched some of the stone decorations along the directionless path. That was the only similarity between her and the place.

Home. It felt far away, although logically, Barnes must…[Read more]

The Protector-Gabriel

“Even if you aren’t fit to fill a role yet, that doesn’t mean you can’t ever fill that role. And as for you, Cassius, I assume Leander is your prince. Therefore, even if he isn’t fit for leadership, you should still respect his wishes.” Gabriel sighed, why exactly, it wasn’t clear.

I’ve got to go to…[Read more]

aight, gimme ten minutes

@mineralizedwritings

Oh also idk if you’re interested but do you know of drawingwiffwaffles on youtube? I used to watch her art videos all the time but she was gone for a really long time for health issues and she made a video about it recently. She’s a Christian and I think she had one of the best perspectives I’ve heard on the topic.

i haven…[Read more]

I might have just provoked Leander, not sure yet….👀👀👀

The evil side of me really hopes I did

@the_lost-journal @loopylin

aren’t we waiting for others?

Yes, but we can enter the maze if you like

“I can handle the truth, but I doubt if you truly can like you say you can.” Gabriel held up a finger to shush Leander as he opened his mouth to protest. “I will prove it to you. I find you to be a l…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Also, i taught myself how to read, so the exeperience of someone teaching you in unfamiliar to me.

That’s impressive. I’d never be able to do that.

since many school curriculums don’t quite hit the mark

Agreed. I remember I had a youth group thing called Olympians every Wednesday night at our old Church, and I was six when I started i…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

I keep wanting to tag you as @the_potato-reporter 😆

Sorry for taking SOOOOO lonnnnnng to reply… 😅

Don’t worry about it. It happens for the littlest and the biggest reasons to everyone.

“Do you mean to insult people, or do you not realize that some things you say may be perceived as such?”

@mineralizedwritings

I’ll remember to pray for you!

Anyways, every step I take I take two backwards

Yeah, I can relate. Last summer I had Lyme’s and Legionella really bad, and as soon as it appeared I was on the mend, everything got worse, and it turned out I had Bartonella on top of it. Thankfully, I appear to be over everything now…except the…[Read more]

@keilah-h

As a person who knows a lot about phonemes and stuff cause of my very meticulous tutor, I get it, but I don’t know if all the letter sounds and stuff will confuse people.

Yes, I was a little worried about that. My Grandma taught me how to read, and she also was very meticulous. I tried to write the scene as the closest thing to what I r…[Read more]

@whalekeeper @keilah-h @the_lost-journal @ellette-giselle @highscribeofaetherium

I think I tagged the right people

Do you remember the beginning scene of A Visitor in the Night from The Baron Chronicles where Simeon is reading something? So, I just spent 27 minutes changing that scene because the thing he reads is from an actual book that isn’t…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings

I’m rather too ill to participate in much of anything

You okay? I hope it’s nothing too serious 🙁
