I already have that! Perhaps I have made some better-than-bad choices!

Yay!

…What about the first few chapters of the book, though? I want to set him up as likable then, but the beginning doesn’t include any huge brave decisions because it’s setting up the status quo.

The status quo is him trying to be “comfortable” or whatever, right…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

O.O

Yeah, entering finals and graduation, then transferring to a university for next fall.

Annnnnd you answered some of that already. XD

@whalekeeper lollll so true……

as kp’s resident weird-fanfiction writer, can confirm.

@whalekeeper

Hmm. Often anxious, slightly pessimistic, nervous.

Give him something (or someone) he cares so much about that he would risk anxious situations to protect/keep/help. It could be something simple like a pet kitten or his father’s pocket watch, or something more complex like a best friend. What drives his anxiety? What is a cause he’d…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

How…? Oh bother.

*Snatches a jacket and poofs away*

@ellette-giselle

Hopefully not? But right now…maybe.

*Deep sigh of weariness*

Life is nuts right now. So yeah, it might take something kinda out there to stop my in my hamster wheel of days.

I should be back to something like normal in…two weeks?

@ellette-giselle

He keeps dying.

WHAT!?! XD

First you kill all my favorite of your own characters, and now you’re killing mine!

LOL

Okay, where were we?

@ellette-giselle

Okay.

I liked Aelic.

And I am now…mmmm.

*Glares*

I was honestly hoping Leon would somehow be able to take his place, even though I like Leon.

Besides my unhappiness over what happened, nice gut punch at the end. And um…

Honestly, this kid’s writer feels kinda sick after that, so she’s going to just step back and let…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle Well I think it’s great so far, so yep, you did your job.

@ellette-giselle

ohhhh.

By Draft 4 pretty much everything is solidified, right?

And I don’t mean “don’t make them die through the entire story,” just “don’t kill them this early in the book without a good replacement.”

Speaking of which, I don’t put swearing in my animations….lol. That’s not what I meant.

It was the animation style and the characters that made my dad think of me.

@ellette-giselle

Hmm. We’ll have to see.

What draft is this? If this is a first or second draft I could forgive you for killing them off and yeeting us into some random’s POV, cause it’s still rough and maybe you just figured out that killing them works for the story. But if it’s the final draft, almost ready for publishing, and you did that, I…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle I read the section! Good to have the characters remember past events.

Also, I agree with Linus, I think they’re gonna live (or at least Leon and Julian will, Aelic could die or he could live); it seems a little early to kill these characters off, especially since you’ve provided no real replacement protagonists.

@ellette-giselle not yet!! I just happened to see Linus’s reply while I was going through my emails. I’m doing animation work right now, but my “work” computer and my normal computer have the same email. I’ll read it when I’m on my other computer.

@ellette-giselle yep, that’s a perfect name for the character in the image.

It just…fits her.

@ellette-giselle That’s what I thought, it sounds like a girl’s name.

also that meme is peak humor lol

@linus-smallprint

completely off topic but Bastille is an awesome name for a character. It sounds like a female name, but I guess it could be for a guy too.

@ellette-giselle great job on this section!!

@thearcaneaxiom I know you’re not here much but……

Remember this conversation?

Me:  I can’t believe I’m doing this.

I’m asking you an Avatar The Last Airbender question.

I remember you were telling me to watch the show like your life depended on it years ago. Still like it?

You:

-Me being chronically inactive cause I’m about to serve a…
