Wilhelm

He crouched on his heels and finally let his grin out.

“Thine ears perchance.” He handed Wolfgang’s sword back. “But it was a good fight. I’ve never seen a style like yours.”

@liberty

I really want to, but I don’t think I can. I will look forward to seeing what y’all do!

@ellette-giselle

I’m going to try to respond. I have 3-5 hours left on this day’s work. My brain is pudding.

I have gone back and forth between options. Not sure which is better, but it’s about time it ended. Sword fights are usually resolved quickly. *dives into a martial arts lesson on sword disarming* *scrambles back breathless*

@ellette-giselle

Must write. Must write for Wilhelm

For Wilhelm!!!!

Wilhelm

“Ach!” Wilhelm twisted away from Wolfgang’s attack. The rapier stung his arm.

The fight was now almost over. Of course, it might have been over already if he had advanced on Wolfgang when the boy was down. That was the problem of a soft heart in battle.

Always a…[Read more]

@liberty

Thank you for sharing! That’s awful that the contract was broken like that. I’ll be glad to help out in what ways I can.

@ellette-giselle

I love this so much. Sorry I didn’t reply before now. Work has been insane. For a week. I’m typing this up on my lunch break.

I’m thinking of doing a Men of Iron move with Wilhelm’s battle reflexes… It would be a completely different approach than typical modern fencing based on getting points.

Wilhelm

His opponent was…[Read more]

@beth-torres

I’m glad the others had timely responses for you! I just wanted to say I have impulses to fast fiction specifically. Once, I fasted all writing for a month, although I did not do it in an entirely beneficial way. Writing non-fiction/journaling/poetry is incredibly powerful for one’s personal Spiritual life. The thing that makes me…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

I actually might be able to make this one. *cue muted cheering*

It is, but we’re all pretty awkward tbh. :] We’ve done this before and I can safely say the rest of us will not care if you have vocal ticks or don’t know how to carry a conversation.

This is almost painfully valid. 🤣

Really though, we’re a great group to meet with. We don’t mind if you say half your sentences inside-out (like um, me) or don’t…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Yessss!

My work schedule is about to change around a lot, so I’m not sure exactly what will work. (I’m working at a campground and we’re entering camp season.) Around 3-4 pm would probably be best/closest to possible. After this next week I’m not sure if it will return to it’s prior schedule (free after 5) or do something else wild…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Eek! Lol.

Wilhelm

He had been on the verge of telling Wolfgang that he wouldn’t aim for his sword – Wilhelm’s target would always be his opponent, not a weapon – when the boy vanished.

That door had a rough time of it that night. Wolfgang’s reentry rattled the cups left on their table.

“En garde!” Cried the madcap creature as…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I’m wondering who is going to win this….

Wilhelm

He was in the middle of fitting his sheild onto his left arm. He kept his gaze on his work, but his eyebrows were rising into his hair. They were more trouble to keep in order than either his sword or his shield.

“Heavy weapons prepare us for pitched battle. Strength must be…[Read more]

@loopylin

Aww. I love him. He looks like a slightly snarky sweet heart with a big destiny.

@ellette-giselle

Hehe.

By the way, his arming sword is a little under a yard long. His great sword is probably five feet, a precursor to the Zweihänder sword if he was in our world.

Wilhelm

“So instead you use flimsy weapons? I don’t see the wisdom of that. What about glaves and halberds? But nevermind. I’ve another trainer here somewhere.”…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

I don’t have much advice, being in a similar situation myself. However, the thing that helps me the mostis just talking through plot holes and concepts. If you don’t have someone who can be a sounding board for you (in “real” life), I think most of us KeePers would be happy to be that. It’s nice to hear other opinions at the…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Lol. He might need to learn to notice details if he’s going to lead a rebellion.

Also don’t remember if they already talked about family. Maybe I need to keep better track of details.

I kind of spoke for Wolfgang, but I tried to write it so you could change his lines as you like.

Wilhelm

“Reinhard is…?” Wilhelm looked back…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I’m amused that Wolfgang hasn’t connected the dots, especially considering Wilhelm’s 11th cent clothing, rooms, and culture. XD I know he thinks it’s impossible, but something should be tickling his subconscious by now.

Wilhelm

Either this boy was confused or Wilhelm was. Or perhaps both. The idea that knights were antiquated…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

They totally are!

Wilhelm

Wolfgang’s second swing was more controlled, although it still sent Wilhelm’s heart up in his throat. He forced his voice into a level calm.

“Ah. That’s better… It depends on the armor, but yes. There’s little use in a weapon that can’t reach your enemy.” Once more, he edged back to give Wolfgang…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Aha! I finally got back on here.

Here’s the sketch of Cass.
