I was too lazy to find the right emojis 😂😂

Got meself me 100 words.

Now snowballs atttt…. @liberty @whalekeeper @elishavet-pidyon @koshka

Welp… I wrote a short story! XD

If you have the time, I’d love to hear your thoughts on it before I show it to friends and family. (It’s kinda long, I apologize, lol. It’s under 11k.)

Tagging some folks just in case you’re interested, but don’t feel obligated to read it. :))

We also have a new tradition where we eat a different cuisine for dinner on the three(?) nights leading up to Christmas. Like Mexican, Chinese, pizza, and then on Christmas Eve we eat finger foods so there aren’t a lot of leftovers to leave room in the fridge for left over Christmas dinner. 😋

@theshadow

Yes ma’am!! Similar to like a lot of people celebrate I think… We never grew up with Santa, so that’s never been a thing (we have nothing against it, of course, we just never “believed” in it as kids). We decorate our house for Christmas the day after Thanksgiving and we set up our Christmas tree (we have wayyyy too many ornaments…[Read more]

Thanks ladies!! <33

@linus-smallprint What I meant by “breaks immersion” is that I didn’t really want to pay attention to the spells. They have no use to me. They’re deeply evil in Alan’s world and useless in mine, so what reason do I have for needing them in my memory?

Also the part about the writer changing them didn’t make sense to me. Why not just not write…[Read more]

So, whenever I’m overwhelmed, whether by emotions or circumstances, or just whatever, I have to remind myself that God is there and He cares and wants me to turn to Him for help. I understand it’s not easy for everyone to talk to a God that they can’t physically see or hear, but He’s there, Kefa. He wants you to come to Him wit…[Read more]

I’m kinda in between Whaley and Ellette on this. They both have good points I agree with.

It’s your call, Linus. Your story is the one on the line.

@whalekeeper I get that and to some extent agree. It’s just the inclusion of a detailed description of the spells kinda broke immersion for me a little. It didn’t seem THAT necessary.

@the_lost-journal

Could I suggest something to you that always helps me when I’m feeling overwhelmed?

@savannah_grace2009

No worries! This week got really busy and I got sick halfway through, so I probably wouldn’t have been able to RP very soon afterwards anyway. Where should we start Lukas and Livia? I have no idea what day it is in relation to the dance (which has been planned for like forever now…it’s craaazzzyyyy 😂)

@ellette-giselle

Oh why! Must it be a hand or foot? And why talons! Can’t you just restrict the movement! This is horrible. If he and Martha do get married, how is he supposed to hug her without slicing her back?!?!?

*feels slightly offended for the 90% of my characters that have talons*

I’M KIDDING I’M KIDDING

I mean, I have a c…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint Hmm, this was interesting.

How do Alan’s friends feel about this?

Does he realize how guilty he’ll be when he wakes up? I mean, he just dedicated his life to God and swore off magic a few chapters ago.

I’m not sure how I feel about the spells being as descriptive as they are. I had no problem with it, personally, although it…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I can tell. XD (it is getting pretty good, isn’t it?)

Leo

His smile widened into a grin.

“Any time, kid. I don’t mind.”

Rory looked back at him, a little baffled. Leo just .

“We do need to get home. Although, I think if that creep was going to find us, we’d be got by now. They’re not quite everywhere.” He grinned, then let…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Ooh boyyyy…XD

Leo

Broken in a thousand ways. Leo saw the pain. He knew the pain. His heart ached.

“You weren’t born a weapon, Rory. You were made into one. Even if you were separated at birth for training and destruction, you were born a living soul. That’s what makes you sacred. Not who you are, or what you’ve done, or…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon

Beautiful. Just beautiful. I love it.

@ellette-giselle

Leo

Dear God. Help me. He knows so little, and I have no clue what to say. He stared at the back of the boy’s head, trying to find the right words.

“No, Rory. He rescues us from Hell. From death and torment forever. The government hasn’t and won’t be around forever. So Rory,” He settled a hand on the boy’s shoulder, brushed the…[Read more]
