@whalekeeper

This is not something I would enjoy doing, but it’s a thing. So here.

1) Get some boots a couple sizes too big, a large overcoat, a pair of gloves, and some blood from a butcher (or kill a dozen or so pigeons).

2) Fill a burlap sack with a bed sheet, linens, ect. Set up the parlor with your typewriter facing a window as if you were…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

you’re welcome!
also I like your forum signature

@linus-smallprint ah. Makes sense.

By the way, how did native-to-Earth animals get to Ehverwyld? I can see the otherworldly animals like vandergrits and dragons having been there since that world’s creation, but what about the crows and horses, etc.? Did they come through the same portals that humans did, but by sheer accident? were they created…[Read more]

@freed_and_redeemed

Ack! Sputter, GASP.

Fine. I’ll just have to use words from my actual WIP.

A voice broke the peace of the mountain side. “Wonder if they’ll take us this year.”

Zlati whipped around, concentration thoroughly shattered. Flopped a few paces away, Vulka lay in the sparse grass with a grin firmly in place. He rolled over onto…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings yeah if he doesn’t fly much, they probably would atrophy anyway.

The four wings connected design is cool; I have four-winged characters but the second pair is always separate.

@the_lost-journal

hmmmm……

I can’t quite choose.

How about C.

oh actually because he doesn’t fly leaving it as it is might not be a problem, he just needs muscles that hold up his wings.

Leo

Great blue stars. Leo’s teeth clenched. A tail, here, halfway home. These creeps really hard no discretion. “Good man. On Zero.”

Three.

He tapped his com unt to alert Silvia.

Two.

Silvia even with them under the pretense of taking Quincy. Her eyes were sharp, fingers twitching over her…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Thanks!
Yeah I’m hardly done, I’ll need to work on the muscles eventually too, this was just kind of a test run for the new wing design.

@mineralizedwritings that’s cool!

also, as a person who likes making biologically accurate stuff, his species being naturally thin makes sense. I imagine the only sizable muscle mass would be in his chest and back to operate the wings.

@keilah-h

Thanks!

It’s two wings with two layers each. It would be four, but they are fused together at the ends (Yes they do fold and unfold I’ve tested it with a paper model lol)

hmm for a couple reasons actually. Flax has to be super lightweight to fly for one. Usually winged creatures in books are just people with wings, but realistically…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings wowwww

that’s cool.

Four wings?

And why so skeletal?

@whalekeeper

ty < 3!

hehe I spent way to long messing with the opacity lol

wow it actually looks so much better now lol

@ellette-giselle

Ty! Just the effect I was going for. Creepy, but not scary creepy. More of just otherworldly.

@whalekeeper

Thank you!! Glad you like it! : D

Ok I actually just finished it today!

@raxforge ohhhhh

makes SO much sense now

@linus-smallprint ok!!

Let’s get to it!

-I see the king is trying to convince Oliver and Tyn to talk Alan into magic again. Yikes. I hope they don’t go through with it. I also read when Alan is going to try to use the magic himself, which won’t be good.

Why does the crow seem to be sentient? Why does it want him to use the magic? Is this…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Awwww…

Leo

He smiled, his throat going tight as he watched the kid. He shifted Quincy to put an arm around Rory’s shoulders. “We go home, if you’re good with that. I’ll explain on the way.”

Rory didn’t outright object, so Leo took that as the agreement he needed. Silvia had taken to scanning windows. Her fingers were wrapped…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint I’m still reading! I just haven’t had the chance to critique the chapters.
