freedom

it actually sounds awesome, but I’ll be out for most of november on vacation and won’t have internet, so I wouldn’t be able to coordinate anything (which is what I assume you’d need to do)

sorry!!

I’ve done some 2D animatics just using Procreate on my iPad, but I haven’t done actual 2D animations. 3D was somehow easier for me, even though most people say it isn’t.

@e-m-trepke Thanks!! and yep, I’m using Blender! i’m also learning Maya, which is a lot different but closer to the animation programs that large-scale companies use.

I have a youtube channel actually! https://youtube.com/@slatedragonproductions?si=K-GTvHclqcrcsKbw

@e-m-trepke that’s cool!!

I’ve been working on a lot of animation actually–3D mostly. Been doing a lot of How To Train Your Dragon fan animations. Maybe I’ve told you that already though, idk. I wouldn’t say I’m GOOD at modeling, so I mostly use other people’s free models, but I have modeled and rigged a few characters. It’s pretty fun.

@loopylin @beth-torres

I have ordered a new pit for the miniature rose my dad gave me. Now I’m researching what kind of soil I should get. Nothing is safe. Every character of mine is in danger of obtaining a plant baby. 😂

*clears throat*

Tavar

He settled back into his chair. It was across from the hungry boy, in view of potential librarians.…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon @whalekeeper @koshka @beth-torres

feel free to skip my turn for both my characters. Jack is feeling introverted and Ellis has nothing to say at the moment

@beth-torres @loopylin

Tavar

“You are welcome. Do you have another…” His brows scrunched together as he searched for the word. “Shnack? There’s a seat in this window that’s quite hidden from the librarians.”

He held out a hand in welcome, ready to catch the boy if he stumbled.

@whalekeeper @loopylin

Ari

He forced himself to refocus on Moth. He doesn’t want to hurt the target. That might be part of the problem.

“I wouldn’t like to meet a living hay bale. What if you imagine the arrow is a message to the center of the target, and you need to sent it there.”

@koshka @loopylin

Moth

“Violence?” Moth tilted his head. He stared at the target and squinted. “But I don’t want to hurt the hay bale. It has done nothing but grow in a field.”

He found himself scowling at the third arrow in his hand, as if it was at fault. “Everything is so eager to… It doesn’t matter. Are you saying I should imagine the bal…[Read more]

@whalekeeper Ooo, interesting. I knew animals could, but didn’t realize people could too. It makes a lot of sense, actually. Glad you think it fits!

@beth-torres Thanks! He definitely has it now, although he hasn’t entirely learned how to use it/what he smells.

Now for the RP…

@loopylin @whalekeeper

Ellis….XD

Ari

“Yes.” Ari’s eyes brightened at Ellis’s suggestion. He nodded slowly. “More violent than flowers, certainly. I wonder…violence…would likely not be as pleasant for the arrows. Or whatever they hit.”

Ellis, my dude. XD Love the input.

@elishavet-pidyon

This RP has got me thinking… I’m playing with the idea that Tavar can smell diabetes, maybe even cancer and malaria, since his folk are supposed to have GREAT senses.

That’s a real thing. I know of at least one woman who was proven to be able to smell Parkinson’s disease on someone before diagnosis. It’s possible to smell dif…[Read more]

@koshka @whalekeeper

Ellis

“Maybe think more violent thoughts?” Ellis offered lamely.

@koshka @loopylin

Moth

Moth blinked and shook his head to clear it. “I didn’t intend for that to happen, no.”

Maybe it was a one-time accident. He motioned for Ari to walk out of the shooting range, and after making sure it was safe, he strung another arrow and shot again.

This time, it transformed into a yellow poppy, and twirled in the air b…[Read more]

@whalekeeper @loopylin

I’ve been a bit swamped as well, so your timing is great. XD

Ari

That was… unexpected. He lowered his bow.

“Did you intend for that to happen?”

The thing–flower?–was pretty. Ari walked over to it, heedless of other arrows as he was most safety precautions. He crouched beside the thing but didn’t pick it up. Even in…[Read more]

@koshka @loopylin

Sorry for the late reply; I’ve been a little mentally swamped.

Moth

Moth took a look at Ari’s hand. He put the ring on and dropped an arrow onto the bow. He studied Ari’s hand position, looking back and forth between their bows, and did his best to mimic the expert. It was probably best to be sure of what to do before he pulle…[Read more]

@loopylin

Noted. It’s canon now.

I like her despite herself. XD Two librarians are better than one. Besides, it’s a huge library. One would be overworked.

@elishavet-pidyon I like that idea. Very unique special ability @beth-torres

fyi this lady is hard of hearing that’s partially why she’s so loud

also I accidentally came up with two librarians instead of one

Quibble

The librarian seemed to hardly register the boy’s reaction as she distractedly tucked the confiscated snack into her breast…[Read more]
