@smiley @freed_and_redeemed you’re not gonna know the fandom this is for but just know that it’s based off a video game series I don’t really suggest getting into but I enjoyed., and I like turned it into a sci-fi thing so now all the characters are different creatures and there’s space travel and stuff.

@theshadow you’ll probably like this…[Read more]

also, is the formatting weird for anyone else?

@ellette-giselle@mineralizedwritings yep I’m a non-dating teenager too. My parents don’t care for it,

As for dresses, I kinda hate ’em but that doesn’t mean I’m not concerned about being modest. No way. I wouldn’t wear none of that revealing nonsense a lotta kids these days wear if you gave me a thousand bucks.

and pffft! Political correctness?…[Read more]

@theshadow thanks! I didn’t mean for you to sift through my ideas lol, I meant I was going to and see if I had anything cool for you XD. reading over it I realized I made a typo which made it seem like I was saying that. heh heh.

anyway.

@linus-smallprint ooh Charles is Alan’s father? Interesting!

Also that’s horrible what they did to Oliver and his brother. (I’m really hoping he doesn’t like betray them or anything. He’s one of my favorite characters so far. Partially because he’s a lizard and I love lizards, and partially because I greatly enjoy his accent lol)

@rae so kinda both? Like a form of self-insert?

I’ve done kinda the same thing before too. It’s why I always wrote Huntress’s POV in the roleplays from first person–she’s partially built off a heavily distorted me, and thus I find it much easier to write her from the inside rather than from externally.

@ellette-giselle lol my parents want to know what it’s like to live in Europe for a month or two.

Only time will tell if we will ever actually do that.though.

@ellette-giselle cool! I’ve never lived anywhere besides the US…..

@grcr all right!!

@linus-smallprint @rae @ellette-giselle is that everyone who was in the challenge? I still have to get to work on my drawing lol

@ellette-giselle

Great scene! Sad about the boy who died though. It’s not too dark. War–real, full-out war–is usually sad like that.

You’ve been to Italy too? My family did a short mission trip there with our church last year, although we were there before our friends moved over there and in a different area. My mom wants to go back, it’s so…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle I LOVE IT!

I like how when Aaron starts to doubt why he’s been sent there, Turin is there to remind him of God’s plan. This story’s become special to me because my family has friends who are missionaries just like Aaron. They live in Bologna, Italy, where there isn’t a physical war going on necessarily but many people there…[Read more]

Or yourself? lol

also who’s Ru? A real person you’re working with, or your internal muse (like, say, the narrating character) or something?

@rae Cool! My brother’s a great worldbuilder and did a similar thing with his Icebreaker Empire’s alphabet. They have the same number of sounds as in English, but have a writing system where every phoneme (letter sound) corresponds to one letter (thus having 40 or so symbols). It’s a lot easier to learn to read that way if you don’t have to deal…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle yeah flat characters are no fun lol.

@linus-smallprint I can get behind the not wanting to be baptized in front of everyone thing. I’ve been a Christian for as long as I can remember and am just considering being baptized (mostly because I’m almost an adult and would like that to be my first decision made as an adult, to show I’m not just doing it because my parents did it), and…[Read more]

@theshadow I’ll get together those drawings soon!

also sift through my ideas and see if I can dredge up some more facts about the creatures. They were super fun to come up with.

@linus-smallprint ooh awesome!!

@rae ahh ok! Yeah it’s a little more intuitive, but hard to get used to. also that’s an awesome name for the Skwadron. Any in universe reason why the word is spelled with  “SK” instead of “QU” or was it just for fun?

@everyone else I know I said I was going to judge today, but I’m not sure if everyone who did a…[Read more]

@rae boomerangs?

also how come you use 21:00? You’re not in the US? (You don’t have to say specifically where you’re from.)

@ellette-giselle oooh this is so cool!! The only issue being that because of the fact that you have all the parts of the story scattered through the forum, it’s a bit hard for me to sift through all the replies. Is there a document you can put it all on so I can just read through the whole thing? It’s ok if not.
