Amir

Amir quickly hopped up out of the pile of shoes, bouncing on one foot for a moment as he regained his balance. He pasted on a goofy grin. “I’m fine,” he said with a chortle.

Thankfully, nobody really cared or payed attention to him for very long. But i…[Read more]

@anyone

More questions worth discussing:

How do we know that we interpret Scriptures correctly, when there’s so many different interpretations found? (This is different from a discussion of translation)

How do we discuss dilemmas that seem unique to our era and have no (seemingly) direct reference to what we see in scripture?

Anything else?

@jonas

That sounds good, what you developed so far seems like a good base to start for him.

Yeah, it’s interesting to have those kind of quirks in a magic system, like the nats in Mistborn.

Divine/magic influence is always the simplest way to go. Many point out that saying “a wizard did it!” is bad, and in a certain context this is true, but…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009

I like the new character you introduced in chapter 4. I don’t think you shared a chapter 7 yet, but I started chapter 6, but it seemed like there was some kind of gap, where the characters are somewhere different without explanation. Is that intentional?

@jonas

I like Vilsayor, have you developed his character much in terms of things like motives and such, or is he just plain bad?

I like that you fixed the magic system to implement more even structure. That sort of thing would have driven me nuts. Though it does make me ask the question of what makes these sorts of interactions fundamental in…[Read more]

@fernweh_grace

Hi! I’m Keilah. The first half of your name was funny to me, because my uncle owns an ice cream shop by that name!

We LOVE roleplays lol. There are a bunch, they’re mostly kinda dead/going slow right now, but I’m sure if you joined one it could get everyone to remember them lol.

We also share LOTS of story snippets. There’s a…[Read more]

@hybridlore lol

@hybridlore doing good! how about you?

@hybridlore

I’m ok! Thanks for asking! I was feeling really bad this past week, but much better and actually quite happy today. I can kinda feel fall in the air… and we have the heat turned on now 😍

I just re-watched captain America over discord with my sister who is at college, and that was really fun. It’s a pain to set up but once you do…[Read more]

@fernweh_grace

Yeah, once again though, this is the era of self publishing, so stories from indie writers from all over the planet are getting better and better access to the market, allowing a deep saturation of ideas, themes, and stories of all sorts of cultures, including African varieties. While I don’t know of many examples of African…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings Ok, great! Thanks!

@freedomwriter76

XDXD this is so much for fun doing it with other people! Of course, there’s no way I’d be watching Marvel without you. After I got burnt out of watching Haikyuu, at some point I prayed about getting to be a fan of another thing… XD!

Oh yea! I think I saw that interview!

Yes, Marvel definitely needs Bucky.

@keilah-h

I will share it!

@freedomwriter76 Oh no, Branson has cancer??

I know a family whose youngest daughter died of cancer…….she was only eight. It was horrible.

I feel even more sorry for Bucky and Madeline now.

oh and Zemo dancing by himself reminds me of him in falcon & winter soldier lol

@freedomwriter76 so far, this dystopian fanfic has been AWESOME.

Calling him “Admiral” Rumlow makes me think of the other admirals I’ve learned to love to hate and/or fear…..Rampart, Thrawn, that lot (both of those from star wars lol)……And Rumlow fits right in.

@freedomwriter76 wow!! awesome!

(The fact that you kept yourself committed to a whole long chapter book is better than I can do, tbh.)

@mineralizedwritings yes fan art of anything please lol

it’s nice to know I’m not the only one obsessing over fictional people XD XD

wait, what kind of flipping knives? i spin my pencil around with my fingers sometimes because I saw one of my favorite characters do it with a knife on a tv show once

a therapist also told me it was a good…[Read more]

Hugo

Ottolines story was horrible, making Hugos seem simple in comparison. She had been through so much, for so long.

“You didn’t deserve that. No one would.” He said, a bit choked up.

Ottoline looked at the floor. He lost control and g…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009 @grcr @acancello @mineralizedwritings @freedomwriter76 @trailblazer

Woah, a lot has happened. lol XD

Amir

Amir watched, his heart crumbling into pieces as he saw Ottoline cry. He wished he could do something, but at the moment, Hugo seemed to be comforting her instead.

But everything was interrupted by a shake of the house.…[Read more]
